Superstructure switching device

Railroad track switch device according to at least one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the structural rail (24) is a thick web rail, a filled line end rail, a filled section rail or a rectangular rail (124).

Railroad track switch device according to at least one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the retainer (18), such as a switch adapter, holding the end of the switching rail (14) on the control rail side is welded to the machined rolled section (24, 124).

Railroad track switch device according to at least one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the retainer (18) holding the end of the switching rail (14) on the control rail side is a reforged section of the rolled section (24, 124).

Railroad track switch device according to at least one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the retainer (18) holding the end of the switching rail (14) on the control rail side is fixedly connected to the rolled section (23, 124) by means of screw connections.

Railroad track switch device according to at least one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the rolled section (24, 124) is bent to obtain a shape corresponding to a conventional guide rail.

Railroad track switch device according to at least one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the rolled section (24), before and after the retainer (18), is relatively offset, and in particular as viewed from the switch rail tip in front of the retainer (18) has a course before the retainer which is offset from the course in and beyond the retainer.

Railroad track switch device according to at least one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the retainer (18) is connected with the rolled section (24) at a distance from the end of said rolled section (24) on the control rail side.

Railroad track switch device according to at least one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the channel (36), which extends seamlessly into the control rail, is formed in the rolled section (24) before or after the connection of the retainer (18) with the rolled section (24).

Railroad track switch device according to at least one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the retainer (18) is connected, e.g. welded, to the web (28) and/or foot (46) of the structural rail as the rolled section (24).

Railroad track switch device according to at least one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the channel (36) is defined, in the area of the retainer (28), on its flank side, on the one hand, by the rolled section (24) and, on the other hand, by the switching rail (14) and by the rolled section at the bottom.

Method for forming a railroad track switch device comprising a stock rail, a switching rail that merges into a control rail such as a channel rail, a guide rail, a retainer that holds the switching rail and a slide device that slidably supports the switching rail between the stock rail and the guide rail, characterized in that the guide rail is made from a rolled rail-steel section by machining and merges into a section having a cross-sectional shape which corresponds to the control rail and which is section formed by machining a section of the rolled section.

Method according to at least one of the preceding claims, characterized in that a rolled rail-steel section is used as the rolled section.
