DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The embodiments of the present disclosure are described below in detail. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, and same or similar reference signs in all the accompanying drawings indicate same or similar components or components having same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are examples, are to explain the present disclosure and cannot be construed as a limitation on the present disclosure.


Next, the turnout structure 100 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is described with reference to FIG. 1-27.


The turnout structure 100 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure includes at least one single turnout 10, that is, the turnout structure 100 may include one single turnout 10 or multiple single turnouts 10. For example, when the turnout structure 100 is composed of multiple single turnouts 10, the structures of multiple single turnouts 10 constituting one turnout structure 100 are the same. For another example, when the turnout structure 100 is composed of multiple single turnouts 10, the structures of multiple single turnouts 10 that make up one turnout structure 100 can also be different.


In an embodiment, the turnout structure 100 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure can be used for the rail transit system 1000, so that the rail transit system 1000 equipped with the turnout structure 100 can have the same advantages as the turnout structure 100.


Next, the turnout structure 100 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is described with reference to FIG. 1-4.


The single turnout 10 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure includes the fixed beam set 11 and the movable beam set. The fixed beam set 11 includes the first side beam 111 and the second side beam 112. At least two movable beam sets 12 are movably arranged/disposed between the first side beam 111 and the second side beam 112, respectively, to define at least three switchable traveling pathways. Top surfaces of the movable beam sets 12 are configured to be the first traveling surfaces for the traveling wheels 210 of the rail vehicle 200 to travel.


For example, there may be two movable beam sets 12. The first side beam 111 and the movable beam set 12 adjacent to the first side beam 111 define a traveling pathway (for example, as shown in FIG. 2). The two movable beam sets 12 define a traveling pathway (for example, as shown in FIG. 3). The second side beam 112 and the movable beam set 12 adjacent to the second side beam 112 define a traveling pathway (for example, as shown in FIG. 4).


It should be noted that the top surface of the first side beam 111 and the second side beam 112 are configured to be the traveling surfaces for the traveling wheels 210 of the rail vehicle to travel. And the left and right sets of traveling wheels 210 on the rail vehicle 200 can walk/travel on the top surface of the movable beam set 12 and the top surface of the first side beam 111 respectively, walk on the top surface of the two adjacent movable beam sets 12 respectively, or walk on the top surface of the movable beam set 12 and the top surface of the second side beam 112 respectively.


The first side beam 111 and the second side beam 112 do not intersect or overlap and both extend along the traveling direction of the rail vehicle 200. Because rail vehicle 200 can choose different directions of travel at the single turnout 10, the first side beam 111 and the second side beam 112 can extend along different directions of travel respectively. At least two movable beam sets 12 can move between the first side beam 111 and the second side beam 112, and during the movement of the movable beam sets 12, the single turnout 10 can present at least three traveling pathways, of which each traveling pathway guides the rail vehicles 200 in different directions, and only one of the three traveling pathways can be used by the rail vehicle 200 at the same time. Therefore, it means that at least three traveling pathways are switchable.


As shown in FIG. 1-2, the movable beam set 12 includes a rotating beam 121 and a moving beam 122. A rotating center 101 is provided on one end (e.g., a first end) of the rotating beam 121. The rotating beam 121 can be configured to rotate around the rotating center 101 and drive the moving beam 122 to rotate relative to it. The beam 121 rotates, and the moving beam 122 is connected to the other end (e.g., a second end) of the rotating beam 121 and moves along a preset path.


Since the moving beam 122 is connected to the other end of the rotating beam 121, the movement path of the end of the moving beam 122 connected to the rotating beam 121 is the same as that of the other end of the rotating beam 121. The moving beam 122 can be connected to the other end of the rotating beam 121. The movement trajectory of the other end remains consistent to form an arc-shaped preset path, and the moving beam 122 can move along the preset path.


Among them, since the moving beam 122 is connected to the other end of the rotating beam 121 and can move along the preset arc path, the other end of the rotating beam 121 can follow the moving beam 122 along the preset arc path. Since the rotating center 101 is provided on one end of the rotating beam 121, when the other end of the rotating beam 121 moves along the preset arc path, the rotating beam 121 simultaneously rotates around the rotating center 101.


It can be understood that since the moving beam 122 is movable along the preset arc path and the rotating beam 121 can rotate around the rotating center 101 of the one end of the rotating beam 121, the other end of the rotating beam 121 and the moving beam 122 connected, thereby indicating that the other end of the rotating beam 121 is pivotally connected to the moving beam 122, and the pivot center 102 is located at the other end of the rotating beam 121. In other words, on the one hand, the moving beam 122 is movable along a preset arc path, and on the other hand, the moving beam 122 is pivotally connected to the other end of the rotating beam 121 through one end of its length.


According to the turnout structure 100 of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the movable beam set 12 is not a whole structure as in the prior art, but is composed of two pivotally connected rotating beams 121 and moving beams 122; the movable beam in the prior art is a whole structure, the top surface of the movable beam must be able to meet at least part of the traveling pathways in different directions. This also results in the top surface of the movable beam needing to be wide enough to meet the traffic requirements in different directions, and thus the overall structure of the movable beam is heavy and difficult to make; the movable beam set 12 in this present disclosure is composed of two pivotally connected rotating beams 121 and moving beams 122. The top surface of the movable beam set 12 does not need to be too wide, and only need to change the relative position of the rotating beam 121 and moving beam 122 that can make the top surface of the movable beam set 12 to meet the driving requirements in different directions. Therefore, the size of the movable beam set 12 in the embodiment of the present disclosure does not need to be too large at least in the width direction, thereby greatly reducing the volume of the movable beam set 12. The movable beam set 12 is lighter in weight, has a smaller turning radius, and is more flexible in rotation. In addition, the processing difficulty of the movable beam set 12 is also reduced.


In some embodiments of the present disclosure, there are two movable beam sets 12 and they include: The first movable beam set 108 and the second movable beam set 109. There are two preset paths and the preset path includes are the first preset path K1 and the second preset path K2 respectively, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, the moving beam of the first movable beam set 108 can move along the first preset path K1, and the moving beam of the second movable beam set 109 can move along the second preset path K2. The first movable beam set 108 is located between the first side beam 111 and the second side beam 112 and can be moved between the first position and the second position, the second movable beam set 109 is located between the first movable beam set 108 and the second side beam and can be moved between the third position and the fourth position.


In an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, when the first movable beam set 108 is moved to the second position and the second movable beam set 109 is moved to the fourth position, the first traveling pathway is defined between the first movable beam set 108 and the first side beam 111, that is, the top surfaces of the first side beam 111 and the first movable beam set 108, and the opposite sides of the first side beam 111 and the first movable beam set 108 constitute the first traveling pathway, and other traveling pathways follow the same pattern. As shown in FIG. 3, when the first movable beam set 108 is moved to the first position and the second movable beam set 109 is moved to the fourth position, the second traveling pathway is defined between the first movable beam set 108 and the second movable beam set 109. As shown in FIG. 4, when the first movable beam set 108 is moved to the first position and the second movable beam set 109 is moved to the third position, the third traveling pathway is defined between the second movable beam set 109 and the second side beam 112. Therefore, the structure of the single turnout 10 is simple, and the switching of traveling pathways is convenient and reliable.


In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the fixed beam set 11 also includes the limiting beam. There are multiple limiting beams, and the multiple limiting beams correspond to the multiple movable beam sets 12 one by one. The rotating center 101 of the rotating beam 121 of each movable beam set 12 is set on the corresponding limiting beam. The top surface of the limiting beam can also be configured as a traveling surface for the traveling wheels 210 of the rail vehicle 200 to run.


For example, multiple limiting beams include a first limiting beam 113 and a second limiting beam 114, the rotating center 101 of the rotating beam 121 of the first movable beam set 108 is set on the first limit beam 113, the rotating center 101 of the rotating beam 121 of the second movable beam set 109 is set on the second limiting beam 114.


The first limiting beam 113 includes: the first sub-limiting beam 113a with two ends intersecting; the second limiting beam 114 includes: the second sub-limiting beam 114a with two ends intersecting. A structure of two first sub-limiting beams 113a adjacent to the first side beam 111 is part of the first traveling pathway. One of the two first sub-limit beams 113a adjacent to the second side beam 112 and one of the two second sub-limit beams 114a adjacent to the first side beam 111 are constructed as part of the second traveling pathway. A structure of two second sub-limit beams 114a adjacent to second side beam 112 is part of the third traveling pathway. As a result, the volume of the first limit beam 113 and the second limit beam 114 can be greatly reduced, and the processing of the first limit beam 113 and the second limit beam 114 is easier.


Further, the top surfaces of the first side beam 111 and the second side beam 112 are configured as the second traveling surface 106 for the traveling wheels 210 of the rail vehicle 200 to travel, and the top surfaces of the first limiting beam 113 and the second limiting beam 114 are configured as the third traveling surface 107 for the traveling wheels 210 of the rail vehicle 200 to travel. That is, the traveling wheels 210 of the rail vehicle 200 roll on the top surfaces of the first side beam 111, the second side beam 112, the first limiting beam 113, the second limiting beam 114 or the movable beam set 12.


In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 5-13, the turnout structure 100 includes the two single turnouts 10 (e.g., a first turnout and a second turnout). For example, the two single turnouts 10 have the same structure. The exit of one single turnout 10 (e.g., the first turnout) is connected to the entrance of the other single turnout 10 (e.g., the second turnout). As a result, a variety of traffic opening solutions can be realized. In addition, preferably, the first side beam 111 of the two single turnouts 10 can be one-piece molded parts, and the second side beam 112 of the two single turnouts 10 can also be one-piece molded parts. Thus, the processing is convenient and the structure is reliable.


For example, as shown in FIGS. 5 to 13, when the two single turnouts 10 are both the above-mentioned three-way turnouts, nine driving schemes can be switched. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, it is possible to realize the upper curve-upper curve opening to traffic. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, it is possible to realize the upper curve-straight line opening to traffic. For example, as shown in FIG. 7, it is possible to realize the upper curve-lower curve opening to traffic. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, it is possible to realize the straight line-upper curve opening to traffic. For example, as shown in FIG. 9, it is possible to realize the straight line-straight line opening to traffic. For example, as shown in FIG. 10, it is possible to realize the straight line-lower curve opening to traffic. For example, as shown in FIG. 11, it is possible to realize the lower curve-upper curve opening to traffic. For example, as shown in FIG. 12, it is possible to realize the lower curve-straight line opening to traffic. For example, as shown in FIG. 13, it is possible to realize the lower curve-lower curve opening to traffic.


In summary, according to the turnout structure 100 of the embodiment of the present disclosure, by providing fixed beam sets 11 and two movable beam sets 12, the two movable beam sets 12 move and position between the first side beam 111 and the second side beam 112 to form different traveling pathways for the rail vehicle 200 to switch the traveling route. Therefore, the structure of the turnout structure 100 is simple, and the switching method of the traveling pathways is simple, lightweight, highly reliable and economical. In addition, this kind of turnout structure 100 can be used as a multi-opening turnout, a crossover turnout, etc., thereby improving the utilization efficiency of the turnout structure 100 and saving resources.


According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the single turnout 10 also includes the first guide rail 131 is configured as a linear guide rail, and the first guide rail 131 is disposed below the moving beam 122 of the first movable beam set 108. And the moving beam 122 of the first movable beam set 108 can move on the first guide rail 131 along the first preset path K1.


The moving beam 122 of the first movable beam set 108 can move on the first guide rail 131. The movement trajectory of one end of the moving beam 122 connected to the rotating beam 121 is arc-shaped. In order to ensure that the moving beam 122 does not interact with the first guide rail 131, for example, on the one hand, the moving beam 122 moves in a direction parallel to the extension direction of the first guide rail 131, on the other hand, the moving beam 122 can also move in a direction orthogonal to the extension direction of the first guide rail 131. The movement trajectory of the moving beam 122 is obtained by combining the movement trajectory of the moving beam 122 in the extension direction of the first guide rail 131 and the movement trajectory of the moving beam 122 in the direction orthogonal to the extension direction of the first guide rail 131. Therefore, the movement trajectory of the moving beam 122 is also arc-shaped, that is, the first preset path K1 of the moving beam 122 of the first movable beam set 108 is arc-shaped path.


The first guide rail 131 is provided below the moving beam 122 of the second movable beam set 109, and the moving beam 122 of the second movable beam set 109 can move along the second preset path K2 on the first guide rail 131.


The moving beam 122 of the second movable beam set 109 can move on the first guide rail 131. The movement trajectory of one end of the moving beam 122 connected to the rotating beam 121 is arc-shaped. In order to ensure that the moving beam 122 does not interact with the first guide rail 131, for example, on the one hand, the moving beam 122 moves in a direction parallel to the extension direction of the first guide rail 131, on the other hand, the moving beam 122 can also move in a direction orthogonal to the extension direction of the first guide rail 131. The movement trajectory of the moving beam 122 is obtained by combining the movement trajectory of the moving beam 122 in the extension direction of the first guide rail 131 and the movement trajectory of the moving beam 122 in the direction orthogonal to the extension direction of the first guide rail 131. Therefore, the movement trajectory of the moving beam 122 is also arc-shaped, that is, the second preset path K2 of the moving beam 122 of the second movable beam set 109 is arc-shaped path.


In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the single turnout 10 further includes a first moving assembly 15. The first moving assembly 15 is disposed between the first guide rail 131 and the moving beam 122 of the first movable beam set 108, and the first moving assembly 15 can move in the first direction along the first guide rail 131. The moving beam 122 of the first movable beam set 108 is movably disposed on the first moving assembly 15 and moves in the second direction relative to the first moving assembly 15, and the first direction and the second direction have an included angle.


Therefore, it can be relatively simply and reliably ensured that the moving beam 122 of the first movable beam set 108 moves along the arc-shaped preset path. For example, the first direction is the same as the extension direction of the first guide rail 131, the second direction and the first direction may be orthogonal to each other, and the included angle between the first direction and the second direction is 90°.


The single turnout 10 further includes the second moving assembly. The second moving assembly is disposed between the first guide rail 131 and the moving beam 122 of the second movable beam set 109, and the second moving assembly can move in the first direction along the first guide rail 131 while the moving beam 122 of the second movable beam set 109 is movably on the second moving assembly and moves in the second direction relative to the second moving assembly.


Therefore, it can be relatively simply and reliably ensured that the moving beam 122 of the second movable beam set 109 moves along the arc-shaped preset path. For example, the first direction is the same as the extension direction of the first guide rail 131, the second direction and the first direction may be orthogonal to each other, and the included angle between the first direction and the second direction is 90°.


Further, as shown in FIG. 24, the first moving assembly 15 is provided with a first sliding member 141 extending along the second direction, and the moving beam 122 of the first movable beam set 108 is provided with a second sliding member.
