Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2503058A1] Equipment for connecting rails (2, 3) and movement of the rails (2, 3) during unloading from a transport truck (4), comprising a first coupling device (5) which engages a portion of a rail (2) and a second coupling device (6), constrained to the first coupling device via a connecting element (7), and configured such as to engage a portion of a further rail (3). The first coupling device (5) exhibits a guide system (50) comprising a seating (8) complementarily shaped to a transversal section of the rail (2) and configured such as to enable a sliding of the first coupling device (5) with respect to the rail (2). A blocking system (9) of the first coupling device (5) to the rail (2) is active exclusively when the first coupling device (5) is in proximity of a free end (2b) of the rail (2), enabling sliding of the first coupling device (5) on the rail (2) into the other relative coupling positions.
