Definitions

  • Another object is to accomplish a method which makes it possible and above all in an unproblematic way allows loading and unloading of separate unit goods on a certain station along a predetermined route where the said station is not the end station for the train set as such.
  • Fig 4b The geometry for the drive and carry arrangement is diagrammatically shown in Fig 4b, such as that the support wheels 9 are to some extent turned in relation to the drive wheel 8 in order to let the wheel 8 and the wheels 9 roll on radii which all have their center in the pivot point 12 of the load carrier at the other end of the assembled wagon. It also appears in Fig. 4c that the wheels 9 are somewhat turned out of the vertical plane of the drive wheel 8.
  • the load carrier 2 has slidable roll front walls are stored in the part of the load carrier 2 which during turning remains attached to the turntable coupling 18 of the bogie 3.
  • the precision in the coupling between a fixed portion 2a of the load carrier 2 and its turnable load carrying portion 2b is such that the roll front walls easily can be pushed past the division between the two parts (not shown in detail).
  • the function of the roll front walls 17 is to give the car drivers easy access to their respective vehicles as well as to give a good availability for tightening the goods/cars to the chassi of the load carrying portion 2b.
  • Yet another function is of course to give the train a fairly even outer surface in order to bring down the air resistance created as far as possible, especially when driving with high velocities.
  • Figs. 8 and 9 go together in the sense that they both show a bogie 3 with fixed and turnable load carrying portions 2a and 2b respectively arranged thereon, viewed from above.
  • Fig. 8 shows diagrammatically how it is suitable to fix the load carrier portions 2a and 2b to each other in transport position, preferably at three points which are marked with a capital H in the figure.
  • the supporting part of the load carrier is thereby essentially in its superstructure, i.e. the walls and the roof thereof down to approximately 1.2 meters above the rail top.
