Definitions

  • the present invention relates to connection between vehicles, in particular rail, constituting an articulated oar, in general, and carries, more particularly on a coupling joint between two vehicles, notably rail vehicles.
  • Document DE-AS-1 040 063 discloses a joint coupling between two vehicles with a function of rotation and a damping function, each function of rotation and coupling being achieved by elements distinct.
  • a joint presents the disadvantage of not allowing angular deflections around the longitudinal axis and is therefore not suitable for tilting vehicle.
  • a toric joint element ensures the joint between a soleplate and the O-ring.
  • This toric joint element is a structure composed of successive and multiple layers of metal and rubber which may be of different stiffnesses and progressive.
  • a major drawback of the joint coupling of two railway vehicles described in this prior art document is that it only allows low angular deflections.
  • the coupling joint of two vehicles railway described in this document of the prior art has as a disadvantage of being rigid and therefore of imposing a twisting of tilting vehicle bodies during passage of curved tracks.
  • an object of the invention is a joint coupling of two vehicles, especially rail vehicles, supporting the deflection around the longitudinal axis without produce a restraining force in order to avoid any twists checkout.
  • An advantage of the coupling joint of two rail vehicles the invention is to be extra-flat due to its small size.
  • Another advantage of the coupling joint of two railway vehicles of the invention is that it can be integrated on pendulum articulated rolling stock or not pendulum.
  • Another advantage of the coupling joint of two rail vehicles the invention is to allow to lower the level of the traffic floor by one value of the order of 200 mm.
  • the coupling joint between two vehicles A, B, especially rail, resting on a middle bogie (not shown) between the two vehicles and presenting a rotation function and a damping function is such that each rotation and damping function is made by separate elements.
  • the joint coupling comprises a central toric part 3, having a frustoconical bearing surface 3A, a ball joint 1, 2 having a hollow central conical part 1A nesting on the frustoconical bearing surface 3A of the central O-ring 3, elastic elements 4, a disc 5 and a retaining screw 6 comprising a pivot vertical 6A.
  • the central toric part 3 partly comprises the tapered support surface 3A and is connected by its lower part to the chassis 9 of the body of one vehicles B.
  • the ball 1, 2 combines a first element 1 of shape general spherical to a second external element 2 arranged free to rotate on the first element 1.
  • the elastic elements 4 are, preferably at number of two, generally semicircular and are symmetrically arranged on either side of the ball 1, 2 and the longitudinal axis of the vehicle so as to take support against the external surface of the second element 2 of the ball 1, 2.
  • the disc 5 is disposed between the chassis 9 of the body of one of the vehicles B and a support piece 12 of the coupling joint.
  • the disc 5 holds the second element 2 of the ball joint 1, 2 on the first element 1 of the ball joint 1, 2.
  • the support piece 12 is connected to the chassis 9 of the body of one of the vehicles B and is, for example, composed of several elements welded together.
  • the support piece 12 supports the toric piece central 3 by its lower part.
  • the vertical pivot 6A of the retaining screw 6 engages in the center of the central toric part 3 and is fixed to the central toric part 3 thanks to a 3B thread.
  • the central toric part 3 is hollowed out in its part lower to receive the body / bogie drive 11.
  • the retaining screw 6 avoids any dislocation of the whole, for example, when going over a big defect of track.
  • a top protective cover 7 and a flange lower 8 avoids all projections, for example of ballast, which could damage the coupling joint.
  • the disc 5 is connected to the chassis 10 of the body of the other vehicle A.
  • Disc 5 is non-deformable and both its ends form a ridger.
  • Disc 5 is calibrated according to the type of railway rolling stock on which it is mounted. AT For example, the resistance of this piece varies from 20 kN to 3000 kN.
  • the disc 5 can be made of steel, of alloy with Titanium, aluminum alloy or composite materials.
  • the elastic elements 4 arranged symmetrically on either side of the ball 1, 2 and the longitudinal axis of the vehicle absorb energy by ensuring high longitudinal flexibility.
  • the elastic elements 4 have a large transverse rigidity.
  • This energy absorption is done in the direction longitudinal of the vehicle more particularly during traction braking and docking and avoids any risk of matting of the patella 1, 2.
