Improvement and Lock Calculation of Electric Switch Machine of Railway Turnout

Electric switch machine locks the crossing rail in the working direction and checks the working status of the crossing. With the increase of train speed, the ZD(J)9 electric switch machine cant satisfy the equipment of high speed railway, This paper studied the optimization; in order to study the lock calculation of nose rail after conversion, a dynamic model is established to research the influence of working status of the crossing. It indicates that for the first traction point, the stress and deformation are mainly affected by scant displacement between nose rail and wing rail; for the second traction point, they are affected by the gap between nose rail and spacer; fastener lateral stiffness doesnt influence the stress status, but the lateral fastener stiffness should not be too small.
