Eine derartige bekannte Saugmaschine weist einen auf einer Waggonplattform abgestellten Kleinbagger mit einem um eine vertikale Achse drehbaren Kranausleger auf. Dieser durch zusätzliche Antriebe höhen- und seitenverschwenkbare Kranausleger ist mit einem eine Saugdüse aufweisenden flexiblen Absaugrohr verbunden. Diese bekannte Ausführung hat allerdings den Nachteil, daß die zum Aussaugen eines Schwellenfaches von einem zum anderen Schwellenende zu bewegende Saugdüse dabei einen Kreisbogen beschreibt und daher eine ständige Neueinstellung erforderlich ist.Such a known suction machine has one on a wagon platform parked excavator with a rotatable around a vertical axis Crane boom on. This can be tilted and swiveled by additional drives The crane boom is equipped with a flexible suction nozzle Suction pipe connected. However, this known version has the Disadvantage that the suction of a threshold compartment from one to the other Threshold end to be moved suction nozzle describes an arc and therefore constant recruitment is required.

Eine weitere Saugmaschine ist durch die DE 21 36 306 A bekannt. Die auf dem vorkragenden Absaugrohr befestigte Saugdüse ist mit Vibratoren zur Lockerung der abzusaugenden Schottersteine ausgestattet. Das Absaugrohr selbst ist durch einen verdreh- und verschwenkbaren Ausleger oberhalb einer Fahrkabine abgestützt.Another suction machine is known from DE 21 36 306 A. The on The suction nozzle attached to the projecting suction tube is equipped with vibrators Loosening of the ballast stones to be extracted. The suction pipe itself is above by a rotating and swiveling boom supported a driving cabin.

Eine andere Saugmaschine ist bereits durch das Deutsche Gebrauchsmuster 90 00 529 bekannt, wobei zwei Saugdüsen auf einem durch Hilfsschienenfahrwerke am Gleis verfahrbaren Lastkraftwagen höhenverstellbar befestigt sind. Die beiden Saugdüsen sind in Maschinenquerrichtung im fixen Abstand zueinander angeordnet und werden im Arbeitseinsatz in einem konstanten geringen Abstand zur Gleisoberfläche geführt, um von dieser Verunreinigungen, wie z. B. Zigaretten reste oder dergleichen, abzusaugen. Another suction machine is already through the German utility model 90 00 529 known, two suction nozzles on one by auxiliary rail trolleys movable trucks are height-adjustable attached to the track. The two suction nozzles are at a fixed distance from each other in the cross-machine direction arranged and are used in the work at a constant low Distance to the surface of the track in order to prevent contamination, such as B. remains of cigarettes or the like.

Durch die GB 2 172 326 A ist es auch bereits bekannt, den Schotter einer Gleisbettung mit Hilfe von quer- und höhenverstellbaren Saugdüsen abzusaugen. Diesen sind jeweils rotierende Werkzeuge zur Auflockerung von verkrustetem Schotter zugeordnet. Um eine kontinuierliche Vorwärtsbewegung der Saugmaschine zu ermöglichen, sind die Saugdüsen relativ zum Maschinenrahmen längsverschiebbar angeordnet. Nach Zentrierung über einem Schwellenfach werden die Saugdüsen in den Schotter abgesenkt, wobei der Schotter auch in den angrenzenden Bereichen unterhalb der Schwellen abgesaugt wird. Der auf diese Weise zur Gänze abgesaugte Schotter einer Schotterbettung wird einer Reinigungsanlage zugeführt und anschließend im gereinigten Zustand wiederum auf das freigelegte Planum abgeworfen.From GB 2 172 326 A it is already known to be a ballast Vacuum the track bed using cross-adjustable and height-adjustable suction nozzles. These are rotating tools for loosening encrusted Associated with crushed stone. To keep moving forward To enable the suction machine, the suction nozzles are relative to the machine frame arranged longitudinally displaceable. After centering over one Threshold compartment, the suction nozzles are lowered into the ballast, the Ballast also vacuumed in the adjacent areas below the sleepers becomes. The whole gravel extracted in this way Ballast bedding is fed to a cleaning system and then in cleaned state again thrown onto the exposed formation.

Durch das Deutsche Gebrauchsmuster 82 36 650 ist eine weitere Saugmaschine mit einer höhenverstellbaren Saugdüse bekannt. Die über diese Saugdüse aus dem Gleisrost oder neben dem Gleisrost aufgenommenen Schottersteine werden in einen Sammelbehälter geführt und von diesem aus auf einen Rüttelboden zur Reinigung abgegeben. Das untere Ende der Saugdüse ist mit einer speziell gestalteten Gummischürze verbunden.The German utility model 82 36 650 is another suction machine known with a height-adjustable suction nozzle. The one about this Suction nozzle taken from the track grate or next to the track grate Ballast stones are led into a collecting container and from there placed on a vibrating floor for cleaning. The lower end of the suction nozzle is connected to a specially designed rubber apron.

Weitere Saugmaschinen sind noch durch die US 4 741 072, DE 41 08 673 und das Deutsche Gebrauchsmuster 89 13 731.0 bekannt.Further suction machines are also known from US 4,741,072, DE 41 08 673 and the German utility model 89 13 731.0 known.

Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung besteht nun in der Schaffung einer Saugmaschine der eingangs beschriebenen Art, die bei uneingeschränkter Einsehbarkeit von der Fahrkabine auf die Saugdüse eine möglichst leistungsfähige Räumung insbesondere von Schwellenfächern ermöglicht.The object of the present invention is now to create a Suction machine of the type described in the introduction, which with unrestricted Visibility from the cab to the suction nozzle is as powerful as possible Evacuation especially of threshold subjects enabled.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß mit der eingangs genannten Saugmaschine dadurch gelöst, daß die Tragkonstruktion einen in Maschinenlängsrichtung verlaufenden, durch den Antrieb teleskopisch verlängerbaren Hauptträger aufweist, der in seinem von der Saugdüse weiter entfernten Endbereich durch den Antrieb auf quer zur Maschinenlängsrichtung verlaufenden horizontalen Querführungen verschiebbar gelagert ist. This object is achieved with the suction machine mentioned at the beginning solved in that the support structure one in the machine longitudinal direction extending main beam which can be extended telescopically by the drive has in its end region further away from the suction nozzle thanks to the drive on horizontal lines running transversely to the machine longitudinal direction Cross guides is slidably mounted.

Eine derartige Ausbildung ermöglicht bei relativ einfacher konstruktiver Gestaltung eine verbesserte Steuerung der Saugdüse gemäß XYZ-Koordinaten, so daß mit einer rascheren und gezielteren Positionierung der Saugdüse eine wesentliche Verbesserung der Saugleistung erzielbar ist. Dies ist insbesondere für die Absaugung des Schotters aus einer Vielzahl von eng begrenzten Bereichen, wie z. B. Schwellenfächern, von großem Vorteil. Die gezielte Steuerung der Saugdüse kann ohne jedwede Einschränkung in vorteilhafter Weise in der Fahrkabine durchgeführt werden.Such training allows for a relatively simple design improved control of the suction nozzle according to XYZ coordinates, so that with a faster and more targeted positioning of the suction nozzle a significant improvement in suction power can be achieved. This is especially for the suction of the ballast from a variety of narrow limited areas, such as B. threshold subjects, of great advantage. The Targeted control of the suction nozzle can be advantageous without any restriction Way to be done in the cab.

Die Ausbildung der Tragkonstruktion gemäß den Ansprüchen 2 und 3 ermöglicht auch eine problemlose Verschwenkung der Saugdüse in den Schwellenvorkopfbereich, wobei weiterhin eine uneingeschränkte Verstellung gemäß den XYZ-Koordinaten durchführbar ist.The formation of the support structure according to claims 2 and 3 enables also a problem-free swiveling of the suction nozzle into the threshold front area, with an unrestricted adjustment according to the XYZ coordinates can be carried out.

Die Weiterbildung der Tragkonstruktion nach den Ansprüchen 4, 5 und 6 hat eine noch bessere Führung und Anpassung der Saugdüse an bei der Absaugung zu umgehende Hindernisse zur Folge. Durch eine Schrägstellung der Saugdüse mit Hilfe des Rotators ist der Schotter auch in unterhalb der Schwellen gelegenen Bereichen gezielter absaugbar.The training of the support structure according to claims 4, 5 and 6 has an even better guidance and adaptation of the suction nozzle to during suction to avoid immediate obstacles. By tilting the Suction nozzle with the help of the rotator, the ballast is also below Areas that are located in threshold areas can be extracted more specifically.

Die Weiterbildung der Saugmaschine nach den Ansprüchen 7 und 8 hat den besonderen Vorteil, daß die beiden Schotterspeicher unter Erzielung einer kontinuierlichen Ansaugung abwechselnd entleerbar sind.The development of the suction machine according to claims 7 and 8 has the special advantage that the two ballast storage to achieve one continuous suction can be emptied alternately.

Schließlich ermöglicht die Weiterbildung nach den Ansprüchen 9, 10, und 11 einen leistungsfähigen Abtransport des angesaugten Schüttgutes auf nachfolgende Speicherwagen. Mit der wahlweisen Beaufschlagbarkeit des Förderantriebes in beiden Drehrichtungen ist das angesaugte Schüttgut bedarfsweise mit Hilfe des Übergabeförderbandes wiederum auf das Gleis abwerfbar.Finally, the training according to claims 9, 10 and 11 enables efficient removal of the suctioned bulk material to the following Storage cart.
