Patent number: 7861439Abstract: In a method for the continuous renewal of a ballast bed (41) of a track from which the rails and sleepers have been removed, by carrying away old ballast (42) and depositing cleaned ballast or new ballast (44) on the underlying surface (46) from which the old ballast (42) has been removed, a removal device (22) which can travel in the working direction (x) continuously picks up the old ballast (42) of the ballast bed (41). The excavated material is conveyed away from the excavation area and possibly passed on for ballast cleaning At the same time, cleaned ballast or new ballast (44) is continuously deposited in the working direction (x) on the underlying surface (46) from which the old ballast (42) has been removed, to form a new ballast bed (43).

Patent number: 7469479Abstract: The invention relates to a method for measuring tracks in relation to a measuring plan of the track which contains the actual position of the track, in relation to an absolute coordinate system. A measuring platform (2) is guided along the track (1), whereon an inertia platform (6) is arranged, which is initialised, respectively, calibrated to the beginning of the measurement and is aligned in relation to the coordinate system. The inertia platform (6) detects the respective positions of the measuring platform (2) in relation to the coordinate system during the journey of the measuring platform (2). Positional data of the inertia platform (6) is periodically examined based on fixed points (9; 9?) which are arranged in the vicinity of the track and deviations in relation to the coordinate system are corrected by novel calibration, respectively, alignment.Type: GrantFiled: April 21, 2004Date of Patent: December 30, 2008Assignee: J.

Patent number: 6147746Abstract: To calculate the distance and angle of a measuring platform with respect to reference marks, fans of light are emitted from the measuring platform by light emitters. The light emitters are therefore arranged on a circular path about the central axis to rotate in such a manner that the fans of light are emitted tangentially to the circular path. The distance and the angle can be calculated on the basis of the angle of the reflected fans of light received on the measuring platform by the trigonometric method. This arrangement according to the invention results in precise measurements of the distance and the angle in one circular passage of the light emitter, even when the measuring platform is moving.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 1999Date of Patent: November 14, 2000Assignee: J.

Patent number: 6014815Abstract: At a machine for the establishing of a design--track position with a machine frame which runs on chassis and with a working unit coupled thereto, a measuring unit is in accordance with the invention directly placed on the machine frame for the working unit, resp. The measuring unit is, thereby, connected to a control device which controls the working unit in accordance with at least one parameter height position, lateral position and transverse inclination via a adjusting drive. The measuring unit includes an absolute measuring system for a registering of geodetically surveyed fixed points.Type: GrantFiled: May 9, 1997Date of Patent: January 18, 2000Assignee: J.

Patent number: 5587787Abstract: The process for measuring relative angles between a measuring platform and measuring points provides at least one light ray (f.sub.1, f.sub.2) fanned into a flat band. This light fan is swivelled around an axis of the measuring points light is reflected back to the measuring platform, as soon as the light fan impinges on these reflecting means. The measuring platform has counters, which count continuously until the arrival of a reflecting signal at the measuring platform. The respective next reflecting signal stops at the next provided counter. A counter is provided to count with the same counting pulse, during the entire, predefined angular range, in which the measuring points are to be acquired. From the ratios of the counts stopped by the reflecting signals, to the count of the counter that is still counting, the angle of the corresponding measuring point is calculated. Preferably two light fans (f.sub.1, f.sub.2) that are preferably at right angles to each other are provided.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 1994Date of Patent: December 24, 1996Assignee: J.

Patent number: 5331745Abstract: A process and apparatus for surveying a railway track includes a light-receiving and emitting head capable of swivelling about vertical and pitch axes mounted on a measuring platform moveable along the track, as constantly aligned with a reference mark such as by stepping motors controlled by electronic control elements that evaluate the signals detected by the head. These control signals represent at the same time the value of the relative angular displacement of the head with respect to the reference mark while travelling along the track. A space-stabillized gyroplatform on the measurement platform detects the absolute change in position of the measurement platform which is used to correct the angular displacement values of the displacement head. The distance covered is detected by a separate distance measuring device or by the gyroplatform.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 1993Date of Patent: July 26, 1994Assignee: J. Muller AGInventor: Heinz Jager

Patent number: 5255066Abstract: The measuring device for track building machines comprises an optical receiver device having two lenses (1, 2) aligned in one axis (3) and in each case at least one associated sensor strip (4, 5). The projections of light sources (A, B, C) disposed outside the receiver device onto the sensor strips (4, 5) produce signals which are evaluated and determine the size of the angle of the light source in relation to the optical axis. The provision of light-sensitive sensor strips (4, 5) makes it possible to dispense in an advantageous manner with mechanically rotating components in the receiver device.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 1992Date of Patent: October 19, 1993Assignee: Matisa Materiel Industriel, S.A.Inventor: Heinz Jager

Patent number: 4211641Abstract: Circulating air classifier having a separator chamber containing an impeller rotatable about a vertical axis, and a funnel-shaped pre-separator disposed underneath and in open communication with the separator chamber. A blower forces air through a conduit. Material to be classified is fed into the air through an inlet in the conduit. The feed material and air enter the upper part of the pre-separator tangentially causing pre-separation, i.e. some coarse matter to separate. The air with the remaining feed material passes upwardly into the separator chamber wherein aided by the impeller further separation of coarse matter takes place. The air with the suspended fine material passes out of the separator chamber into cyclones wherein the fine material is separated from the air. The thus cleansed air is recirculated to the suction side of the blower.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 1978Date of Patent: July 8, 1980Inventor: Heinz Jager
