DEVICE FOR POSITIONALLY SECURING AND GUIDING RAILS
The present invention relates to a device for positionally securing and guiding rails for track installations for trains, in particular high-speed trains, wherein the rails are laid on fixed concrete foundations directly or indirectly with the interposition of intermediate plates, and guide plates against which the rail foot and, if appropriate, the intermediate plates bear laterally are anchored on or in the concrete foundations, wherein the guide plates consist of high-strength, dimensionally stable material, preferably of filled plastic material, such as, for example, glass¬fibre-reinforced plastic, in particular polyamide. The device according to the invention makes it possible to provide guide plates which are more wear-resistant overall. This is achieved according to the invention in that the guide plate has an inlay, or regions provided with inlays, in the surface region on which the rail foot is supported, wherein the inlay consists of slide¬promoting, low-abrasion or abrasion-resistant, low-wear or wear-resistant and elastically resilient material.
