Embodiment Construction

[0049] Side self-aligning and longitudinally fixed braces are used for the hitch pins of semi-trailers, but they can also be considered for other parts of the vehicle, or even for all other loads mounted on the carriage or divided into several parts.

[0050] As shown in Figure 1, it is desirable to mount side self-aligning and longitudinally fixed support means at one of the ends of the railroad structure, such as the car ends.

[0051] As mentioned above, the concerned car 1 is formed by two bogies, the rotation system of which is constituted by two shafts 2 and 3 rotatably mounted on a bogie mechanism 4 . The bogie arrangement can be with or without the body 5, depending on the intended use. As shown in FIG. 1 , the reference may be a chassis structure or a platform-type structure of the rear end 6 and front end 7 .

[0052]The inventive support device for lateral self-alignment and longitudinal fixation consists of a rigid cowling element 8, a receiving system or cabin 10...

Abstract

The invention concerns a device for lateral self-centering support and immobilization of a semi-trailer kingpin on a railway structure transporting same characterized in that it comprises a nacelle (10) with a mobile frame (11) and a receiving space (12) actuated in vertical movements through lifting means and mounted stable in rolling and yawing motions and through a cowling part urged to be mounted on the kingpin and whereof the outer lateral surfaces co-operate with pivoting components (42) of the mobile frame (11) so as to obtain a self-centering and immobilizing effect, the pivoting components (42) acting as bilateral visual indicators allowing the operator to determine the end of the self-centering and immobilizing operations on either side of the railway car. The invention is applicable to railway transport of road semi-trailers.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a support device for side self-alignment and fixing of the kingpin of the traction device of a semi-trailer transported in a carriage on a carriage mechanism. [0002] In particular, the present invention relates to a device for visually indicating side self-aligning and securing controls on one side or the other of the car compartment. Background technique [0003] Transporting road vehicles in wagons requires equipment for very precise, fast and practical positioning, but also equipment that is easy to use and highly stable, keeping the load safe throughout the transport process. [0004] Loads refer to trucks, but could also be their trailers or semi-trailers. [0005] From an economic point of view, people only focus on transporting trailers and semi-trailers, that is, trailers and semi-trailers that are separate from their towing vehicles, usually separate from electric vehicles. [0006] The invention mainly relates to ...
