Abstract
A device (1) serves for installing rail clips (4) and consists of two tool levers (5) positioned opposite one another and supported on a tool frame (6) by means of a squeezing cylinder (7) in the transverse direction of the machine or track and movable about a pivot bolt (17) of a lever bearing (11,12). Provided at the lower end (8) of each tool lever is a pressing member (9,10) provided for application to a rail clip (4). Each tool lever (5) comprises a first and a second lever bearing (11,12) spaced from one another in a transverse direction (15) extending perpendicularly to pivot axes (13,14). These lever bearings serve for pivoting, as desired, about the first or the second pivot axis (13,14).
Claims5
1-3. (canceled)
A device for installing rail clips connecting a rail to a cross tie of a track, the device comprising:
- a tool frame;
- two tool levers disposed opposite one another and each supported on said tool frame;
- each of said tool levers carrying a pressing member at a lower end thereof for application to a rail clip;
- each of said tool levers having first and second lever bearings, spaced from one another in a transverse direction for selectively pivoting about a first pivot axis or a second pivot axis respectively defined by said first and second lever bearings;
- and
- a squeezing cylinder disposed to pivot said tool levers in the transverse direction relative to the track about a pivot bolt in a respective said lever bearing.
In a device for installing rail clips connecting a rail to a cross tie of a track, the device having two tool levers positioned opposite one another and each supported on a tool frame, a squeezing cylinder for moving the tool levers in a transverse direction relative to the track about a pivot bolt of a lever bearing, and a pressing member at a lower end of each tool lever for force application to a rail clip, the improvement which comprises:
- each tool lever having a first and a second lever bearing, mutually spaced apart in the transverse direction perpendicular to the pivot axes, for selectively pivoting the two tool levers about the first or the second pivot axis in each case, as desired.
