Definitions

  • the invention relates to a two-wheel chassis for track-guided vehicles with a traction-based device for steering and with a wheel carrier.
  • bogies are created by the leading wheelset or the leading ones Steered single wheels. Due to the small center distance or wheelbase this results in a low-noise and low-wear arc run of the wheels and by two or more bogies under the car body a stable guide in the straight Track at higher speeds. Additional steering of the wheel sets or Single wheels in the bogie are made by the diagonal connection of two wheel sets with each other or the use of the angular movements leading and trailing Car bodies achieved.
  • Two-wheel single wheel trolleys have particular in city and regional traffic Spread found.
  • Single wheels facilitate the design a simple car entry by lowering the car floor to Level of approx. 300 mm as so-called low-floor vehicles.
  • rolling condition which by almost the same rolling and peripheral speeds marked for the inside and outside wheels
  • setting condition which is the setting of the wheel planes describes tangential or the wheel axles radially to the rails an almost physically ideal wear and noise reduction and thus high comfort.
  • a single wheel chassis with self-regulating single wheels is in the DE 34 09 103 A1 and DE 37 44 983 C2.
  • Each of the single wheels is steerable about its own vertical swivel axis.
  • the arches inside and outside opposite independent wheel carriers are connected by a tie rod. Due to the vertical swivel axes located outside the wheel contact points the forces arising in the wheel / rail contact are used to the wheel planes traceable tangentially to the running rail, so that the wear between Wheel and rail is significantly reduced.
  • EP 02 95 462 B1 describes a single wheel chassis construction equipped with adjusting devices known. Two single wheels are arranged in a wheel carrier, two wheel carriers are each pivotable about the vertical in a chassis frame stored. The pivot that realizes the vertical swivel axis is located in the middle between the wheels of a wheel carrier in the Plane of symmetry of the chassis frame.
  • the bow-dependent swiveling of the Wheel carrier is effected by an adjusting device for each wheel carrier, which is located on the Support chassis frame and depending on one with the car body articulated adjacent car body each wheel carrier around the fixed Swivel pole swivels in the center of the wheel carrier.
  • this shows the invention trained chassis per wheel carrier with two single wheels none center vertical pivot axis, but two each outside the wheel contact points vertical swivel axes, alternately - under locking the position of the currently outer pivot axis - the wheel carrier around exactly this axis is pivoted.
  • the wheel carrier is under targeted application of differential traction forces tangential to the rail and held in the desired steering angle by a separate lock. The one you want Steering angle is determined, for example, by a tracking measurement, the differential traction forces are specified by an adjustment or control algorithm.
  • Pivots represent a constructive realization of the swivel axes the wheel carrier is dependent on the radius of the curve at the same time Locking the horizontal displacement possibility of the outer Swivel axis pin steered around this swivel axis pin.
  • the swivel movement can also be active, for example by a pneumatic or hydraulic Swivel device or by applying differential traction forces effected and supported at the same time by the wheel / rail contact forces become.
  • Both swivel axes are in the slightly curved or straight track locked so that good stability is achieved at higher speeds and the influence of tolerance-related differences in traction force is low or comparable with non-steerable undercarriages.
  • the steering and locking is done by skillful Arrangement of a spring-damper combination supports, so that at Failure of the traction motors there is no risk to safety.
  • Fig. 1 shows the principle of the chassis in plan view.
  • the direction of movement of the chassis frame 1 shown without a leading part is with a Arrow marked.
  • the axis of rotation (pivot) 2 and 2 'of the vertical pivotable wheel carrier 3 show that in the vehicle position shown Rotation takes place around the outer pivot.
  • the actual steering roll radius results from the distance between the two axes of rotation.
  • the individual wheels 4 are ideal in the track, d. H. the wheel axis is radial to the current radius of curvature and the wheel planes are tangent to it.
  • the mutual guidance of the wheel carrier 3 around the pivot 2 is effected by a bearing segment ring, the parts 5 and 5 'fixed to the chassis frame are shown in FIG. 1.
  • Fig. 3 shows the chassis principle in the front view.
  • the chassis frame is designed here as a so-called trough frame to use a low-floor construction allow deep wagon floor.
  • the suspension of the vehicle body 9 is in the front view is also clearly visible.
  • the bearing segment ring fixed to the chassis frame 5 (parts and 5 ') is like the wheel segment fixed bearing segment ring 7 and the corresponding guide of the pivot 2 shown in section.
  • the page-related Locking device 8 is indicated by the articulation point.
  • Fig. 5 shows the chassis in half section with an embodiment of the nut-spindle construction on the pivot 2, the spindle 19 is articulated, the Nut 10 hinged to the chassis frame 1 and thereby by an electric motor 11 is driven.
  • FIG. 6 is an embodiment of the pneumatic or hydraulic actuating device 12 shown. This is on the pivot 2 and on the chassis frame 1 articulated.
  • Fig. 7 shows an embodiment of the gear-ring gear adjusting device Toothed ring 15 is fastened to the chassis frame 1, the motor 14 to the wheel carrier 3. Via the gear 13, the setting process of the wheel carrier in the chassis frame initiated.
  • a spring-damper combination can support the adjustment process.
