Abstract

a presente invenção se refere a um sistema de absorção / acoplamento de energia para um vagão que inclui uma montagem de projeto fornecida para extremidades opostas de uma viga central do vagão. cada montagem de projeto inclui um acoplador e uma montagem de projeto de engrenagem disposta em relação operável disposta longitudinalmente em relação um ao outro. o acoplador é configurado para permitir pelo menos 11,43 centímetros de percurso em uma única direção longitudinal durante a operação do acoplador. a montagem de projeto de engrenagem de cada montagem de projeto é configurada para suportar de modo consistente e repetidamente até em torno de 149139,974 joules de energia aplicada ao sistema de absorção / acoplamento de energia em um nível de força que não exceda 408233,133 quilogramas sobre uma variação de percurso de um membro de cunha em uma direção axial para dentro com relação ao alojamento de pelo menos 11,43 centímetros. com a presente revelação de invenção, forças de impacto de nível alto entre vagões podem ser absorvidas e dissipadas embora mantendo uma extensão geral do vagão constante e inalterada. é também revelado um método para acoplar dois vagões entre si passiveis de serem liberados.The present invention relates to an energy absorption / coupling system for a wagon including a design assembly provided for opposite ends of a wagon center beam. each design assembly includes a coupler and an operably disposable gear design assembly disposed longitudinally relative to each other. The coupler is configured to allow at least 11.43 centimeters of travel in a single longitudinal direction during coupler operation. The gear design assembly of each design assembly is configured to consistently and repeatedly withstand up to around 149139,974 joules of energy applied to the energy absorption / coupling system at a force level not exceeding 408233,133. kilograms over a path variation of a wedge member in an inward axial direction with respect to the housing of at least 11.43 centimeters. With the present disclosure, high level impact forces between wagons can be absorbed and dissipated while maintaining a constant and unchanged overall wagon length. Also disclosed is a method for coupling two releasable wagons.
