RAIL FASTENING

摘要

A rail fastening contains a rail pad in the form of a clamp (1) which is affixed via bolts (5) to a rail base (2), and a lever (7), which is oriented perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of a rail (8), one end of which lever is hingedly connected via a silent-block (6) to the clamp (1), and the other end of which lever having a platform (9) for installing a rail (8), the platform being provided with protrusions (10) which limit the displacement of the rail in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the railway. A rail (8) is secured to a rail pad via two terminals (11) located on different sides of the rail (8), wherein one end of the terminals (11) is guided under the lower surface of the rail installation platform, and the second end of the terminals abuts the upper surface of the foot of the rail (8) using hexagonal regulators (12) which are eccentrically sheathed onto said ends. In addition, the rail fastening includes two resilient elements (15) located between a rail (8) and a railway base (2) on opposite sides of a lever (7), and the thickness thereof is selected so as to form a gap between the railway base (2) and the lower surface of the lever (7), in a position when a force from train wheels is acting upon the rail (8).
