TRACK MACHINE Russian patent published in 2004 - IPC

FIELD: railway transport; permanent way; repair and maintenance machinery.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to devices for correcting rail track. Proposed machine 1 has frame 2 made for movement along rail track 4, and device 9 in contact with rails and connected with machine frame for re-setting and made for movement along track by means of rollers with ridge 10. Frame 2 of machine is connected with satellite receiver 13 with antenna 14 with center 15. Measuring device 16 is provided for recording relative position of center of antenna 15 relative to device 9 in contact with rails according to following parameters: cross level, cross shift passing square to longitudinal direction of machine, and distance in vertical. Computer 25 serves to calculate displacement of center of antenna 15 relative to datum point 22 of device 9 in contact with rails.

EFFECT: increased speed and accuracy of recording of position of rail track.
