<strong>FEM</strong> <strong>9.311</strong> Page 5The travel wheels of SiR machines with or without apayload shall not lift off the rail due to the 110 % bufferforce and the above-mentioned deadloads and liftedloads. Reaction pressure rollers or safety claws shall beprovided as required for absorbing negative wheel loads.The buffer stops shall be dimensioned for absorbing atleast the actual buffer end force Sp.2.3.2 Test loads2.3.2.1 General function testThe functions of load pick-up, lifting, lowering, andtravelling of SIR machines are tested by applying thefollowing load:'test load: P k = 1.25 payloadFor the analysis of stresses (overstraining beyond theelastic limit) and of stability the test load P k shall bemultiplied by the reduced lifted load coefficient!...±..Jk.',I,' ='I' 2', The assumed load makes it necessary to proceed asfollows for applying the test load:With the test load applied, all motions shall be individuallytested with reasonable care and with the'load in theleast favourable positions. A motion may not beinitiated before the oscillations caused by the previousmotion' have died down.2.3.3 Emergency catch loads2.3.3.1 Function teSt of the catching deviceOn SiR machines equipped with a speed controlledcatching device, the function test of this device iscarried out by applying the catch load P k = 1.25 . payload.'The catch load shall, be positioned centrally on the loadpick-up device.'The following tests shall be carried out:1) function test of the overspeed governor by loweringthe lifting carriage at excessive speed or by asimulation of this condition;2) 'function test of the catching device by manuallocking of the overspeed,governor during the loweringmotion;3) free-fall stop test of the lifting carriage lifted uptogethe~ with the catch load.The free-fall stop' test according to 3) above can beomitted if the catching device is built up of functiontestedcomponents for which an official certificate hasbeen issued.For the stress analyses according to section 1.2 A "Overstrainingof materials beyond the elastic limit"and B;,Overstrainingof structures beyond the critical bucklingstresses" the catch load shall be multiplied by the increasedlifted load coefficient t/J ".For specifying the increased lifted load values I/J" it hasbeen taken into account that the actual speed for trippingthe catching device v ab considerably exceeds the nominallifting speed VH' which is espressed by the followingequation:: .Vab= -J v g 2 + 2xgxSR + 2xgxSFwhere:Vg preset trip,ping speed of the overspeed governor~ 1.4 x VHSRspacing of the notches of the overspeed governoorin relation to the vertical path of the lifting carriageSF idle path of the catching mechanism until brakingstartsg 9.81 m/s 2The energy equation indicates the mean decelerationduring the catching operation:where:m XV~b22 + m x g x h --'- m x am x h = 0hence:am mean deceleration Ih catching or braking path of the lifting carriagem mass of the test load and of the lifting carriagedead ' weightThe maximum deceleration amax in the event ofcatching results from the characteristic curve of the'working diagram for the catching device and by takinginto account an oscillation coefficient according totable 4.Table 5.2 x am triangular diagramamax ' 1.75 x am trapezoidal diagrljm1.5 x am rectangular diagramThe increased lifted load coefficient I/J" results from therelationship between the maximum deceleration due tobraking and acceleration due to gravity.I/J" =a;axIf an exact calculation of the increased lifted loadcoefficient is omitted, the calculation may be simplifiedby taking I/J" from table 6.Table 6.Approximate figures for I/J"Increased Iifted loadcoefficient I/J" 4)Lifting speed VH (m/min)for catcning approx. work- ~20 ~31.5 ~50 >50by ingdiagram 'Clampingrollercatchingtriangular 5 6 - -deviceBrake typecatching trapezoidal 2.5 3 3.5 -deviceCushioningcatching rectangular 2, 2 2 2device41 The above values for I/J" can be influenced by varying thedesign of the catching device (angle of the sloping surfacein the catching block, width and diameter of the catchingroller)Depending on particular applications, additional calcula;­tlons regarding oscillation dynamics may be advisable if dueto its flexibility the structure is definitely capable of absorbinga certain part of the energy produced by catching.
