Abstract: A rail grinding machine contains a machine frame, rail guide units arranged on the machine frame, a grinding unit with a drive motor and a tool holder for driving a grinding tool in rotation about an axis of rotation, a height adjustment device for adjusting the height of the grinding unit and a handle for manually moving the grinding unit. A guide of the height adjustment device defines a guide plane. The axis of rotation is spaced apart from the guide plane, in particular in the region of the tool holder. As a result, the rail grinding machine has a simple configuration and is convenient to use. In particular, the rail grinding machine enables an unrestricted view of a grinding point.

Abstract: A vibratory tamping machine for compacting a ballast bed of a track has a vibration mechanism which is driven by means of an electric drive motor. The vibratory tamping machine has a vibration decoupling device, which defines a decoupling plane and separates a working side from an operating side, for the vibration-decoupling of at least one handle. The handles are arranged on the operating side, whereas the electric drive motor and the vibration mechanism are arranged on the working side.

Abstract: A monitoring device for monitoring a temporary rail connection of two rail portions includes a first fixing element which can be fixed to the first rail portion, and a second fixing element which can be fixed to the second rail portion. The monitoring device furthermore includes a first distance sensor for measuring a first distance between the fixing elements, and a second distance sensor for measuring a second distance between the first fixing element and a first clamping device of the temporary rail connection. The monitoring device allows reliable monitoring of the temporary rail connection. A rail connection system for creating and monitoring a temporary rail connection of two rail portions of a rail is also provided.

Abstract: A spike puller for pulling a railroad spike of a track includes a housing, a linear displacement unit mounted at the housing, and a claw unit for gripping the railroad spike. The claw unit is displaceable in a linear manner relative to the housing in a displacement direction by using the linear displacement unit. The linear displacement unit includes a hollow tube which is guided in the housing. An electric drive unit electrically operates the linear displacement unit. A method for pulling a railroad spike of a track is also provided.

Abstract: A machine for track maintenance is manually displaceable on a track. The machine has a work module with a handle, a working tool powered by a drive and a machine frame configured to be guided on a rail of the track. The work module is detachably connected to an energy module and the energy module has an electrical energy store and output contacts. The output contacts are detachably connected to input contacts of the work module. The work module has as the drive an electric motor supplied with electrical energy from the energy store. This solution results in a high degree of overall efficiency because the energy available in the energy store serves for the largest part for covering performance peaks.

Abstract: A rail grinding machine for grinding rails of a track has a machine frame, on which guide rollers for manual movement of the rail grinding machine in a longitudinal direction are mounted. By use of a cross slide, which is mounted on the machine frame, a grinding unit can be moved in a transverse direction. The cross slide contains a closed cross slide frame, which extends in the longitudinal direction and the transverse direction. The closed cross slide frame enables a simple and stable construction of the rail grinding machine and flexible adjustability of the grinding unit.
