FLOW LINE FOR TIE SPIKES AND ANTI-CRACK BINDING Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC B27M3/14 E01B31/28 

FIELD: transport.

SUBSTANCE: flow line incorporates tie spikes station comprising interlinked, via transverse conveyors, a tie feeder, a tie sawing unit and a tie spiky machine with an accumulating conveyor and a rejector to move the ties from aforesaid machine and an anti-crack binding section comprising the parallel lengthwise conveyors with the reversing machines arranged there between to bore holes in the ties, to cut thread and screw in the screws. The aforesaid anti-crack-binding section parallel lengthwise conveyors are arranged along the tie travel effected by the transverse conveyors and the accumulating conveyor. A rotary-distributing device is arranged between the aforesaid parallel lengthwise conveyors and the accumulating conveyor to receive the tie rejected from the tie flow on the accumulating conveyor and to turn the said tie through 90°. A receiving-rotary device is mounted at tie delivery from the parallel lengthwise conveyors to receive the ties there from, to turn them through 90° and to transfer them to the tie stacker. The rotary-distributing device represents a platform intended to receive and to transfer the rejected tie, turning through 90° relative to one of its vertical axles provided at its ends to get aligned, in turns, with one of the parallel lengthwise conveyors. The rotary-distributing device represents a platform intended to receive and to transfer the rejected tie, turning through 90° relative to one of its vertical axles and linked with the receive-and-transfer platform to receive the tie in lengthwise direction and subsequent crosswise alignment with the nest parallel lengthwise conveyor.

EFFECT: higher efficiency, reduced sizes.
