Abstract: A rail fastening arrangement in which a rail for a rail vehicle is fastened to a base, and to a shim. The rail fastening arrangement includes two guide plates, of which one guide plate respectively is associated with one of the longitudinal sides of the rail, and a shim which is arranged between the base and the rail. The shim, at its top, has a contact area on which the rail is supported, and, at its bottom, has a supporting surface by way of which the shim is supported on the base. The contact area and the supporting surface of the shim, viewed in a section located transversely to the longitudinal extension of the rail, enclose an acute angle. The edge at which the shim is thinner is arranged beneath the rail, fastening of rails oriented at a cant relative to the vertical in the region of points.

Abstract: A combination of a guiding plate for laterally supporting a rail and a wedge element for adjusting the position of the rail relative to a counter-bearing, on which the guiding plate is supported. The guiding plate has an end face which is associated with the wedge element and which extends in the longitudinal direction and a lower side associated with a substrate. Between the guiding plate and the wedge element is a positive-locking guide along which the wedge element can be displaced in the longitudinal direction of the end face of the guiding plate. The guide between the wedge element may act as one joining partner and the guiding plate may act as another joining partner wherein, in one of the joining partners, there is formed a slot-like guide orientated along this joining partner and the projection of the other joining partner engages in a positive-locking manner.

Abstract: A system for fixing a rail onto a foundation and to a guide plate. The system comprises a spring element, with at least one spring arm, which can be clamped against the foundation by means of a clamping element, an adapter piece, with a contact surface section, which sits on an end section of the spring arm, and a guide plate. The guide plate has a contact surface for the rail foot and a sliding surface which adjoins the contact surface via which the adapter piece can be moved from a pre-assembly position in which it sits on the guide plate with its contact surface section to an assembly position in which it is seated, with its contact surface section, on the rail foot of the rail to be fixed. A stop is provided on the sliding surface against which the adapter piece rests in the pre-assembly position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a system for securing a rail, including a guide plate for providing lateral support for the rail to be secured, a spring element supported on the guide plate and having at least one spring arm exerting an elastic retaining force on the base of the rail, and tensioning means for tensioning the spring element. Such a system allows an optimally secure support of the rail even in the case of a level ground having no indentations or stop shoulders, whilst being easy to handle and having only a small number of components to be mounted in each case, by providing a support angle which may be connected to the solid ground and which has a bearing surface against which the guide plate rests on the side facing away from the rail base. According to the invention the support angles are made from a plastic material, in order to facilitate assembly and improve the function of the support angles in practical use.
