Abstract
A method for the lubrication of Vignole type railroad track, especially preceding a curved portion which is subject to wear by the wheel flanges of railroad cars, by applying lubricant essentially horizontally against the inner side of the Vignole type railroad track by an application device supplied with lubricant, wherein the lubricant is applied to the track through the movement of the application device along the track to be lubricated.
Claims24
A device with a nozzle head to which the lubricant is fed, wherein the nozzle head is provided with nozzle carriers that are spaced with respect to one another and which are fastened to a holder which can be moved along the track by a stationary drive which is fastened to a rail of the track to apply lubricant essentially horizontally against an inner side of the Vignole type railroad track by the application device supplied with lubricant, the lubricant being applied to the track through movement of the application device along the track to be lubricated.
The device according to claim l, wherein the nozzle carriers are connected with one another by a pipe to which the lubricant can be supplied in the center between the nozzle carriers, and wherein the pipe is supported relative to the cylinder.
A method for the lubrication of Vignole type railroad track, comprising the steps of:
- providing an application device with at least one nozzle head to which the lubricant is fed, wherein the nozzle head is provided with nozzle carries that are space with respect to one another and are fastened to a holder which is moved along the track by a stationary drive which is fastened to the rail of the track;
- applying lubricant essentially horizontally against an inner side of the Vignole type railroad track by the application device supplied with lubricant, the lubricant being applied to the track through movement of the application device along the track to be lubricated.
