Definitions

  • the invention deals with guiding and stabilizing of mutually spring-loaded parts of rail vehicles, particularly low-deck ones.
  • bogies of rail vehicles use mutually spring-loaded parts, for example a bogie bolster and a bogie frame or a coach body bottom and a bogie frame, which are mutually spring loaded by means of secondary springing, equipped with guiding for transfer of longitudinal - tracking and braking forces.
  • This guiding may be arranged as a longitudinal draw rod or a pair of draw rods, that have to transfer all longitudinal forces acting between the mutually spring-loaded parts of the bogie and they also have to enable the mutually spring-loaded parts of the bogie to perform vertical and transversal movement necessary for achievement of acceptable driving properties of the vehicle.
  • the longitudinal rods are arranged in horizontal or slightly oblique direction, in horizontal projection they are parallel with the vehicle main axis, while the position slightly changes according to the mutual position of the spring-loaded parts.
  • the rods T on Fig. 1 are usually attached to the mutually spring-loaded parts of the bogie by ball or rubber-metallic joints KL, which enable mutual vertical and transversal movement of the mutually spring-loaded parts.
  • the longitudinal draw rods arranged this way are only able to transfer longitudinal forces in the direction given by the rod longitudinal axis thanks to the flexibility of the ball or rubber-metallic joints, i.e. tensile and pressure forces in terms of stress.
  • This device provides a longitudinal draw rod for longitudinal guidance of mutually spring-loaded parts of a rail vehicle based on the fact that it connects the mutually spring-loaded parts of the vehicle, a bogie frame and a bolster or the coach bottom by means of cross-pin joints first and second brackets attached respectively to the bogie frame and to the bolster or the coach bottom.
  • the new design and arrangement of the longitudinal rod is not only useful for transfer of longitudinal forces, but also for transfer of torque stabilizing rocking of a moving coach.
  • the longitudinal rod is provided with forks at both ends.
  • the cross-pin joints transfer the torque necessary for limitation of the side tilt or rocking of the moving vehicle, and they also transfer the longitudinal forces between the mutually spring-loaded parts of the coach and enable the mutually spring-loaded parts of the coach to perform mutual vertical and transversal movement.
  • the central part of the longitudinal rod between the forks with the cross-pin joints which is designed as a torque arm, which enables limited rocking of the bolster and thus the vehicle body thanks to its flexibility, may serve as such a member.
  • a torsionally loaded cylindrical rubber-metallic insert may be integrated in the longitudinal rod, where the longitudinal rod with the forks for embedment of the cross-pin joints at each end have the central part consisting of two coaxial cylindrical parts, each of which is connected to one fork, and there is a rubber insert arranged, for example pressed or vulcanized between the coaxial cylindrical parts, which provides torsion plasticity of the longitudinal rod, which enables limitation of rocking of the bolster or coach bottom and thus also the vehicle body.
  • Some of the bearings of the cross-pin joints may alternatively be made as elastic rubber-metal springs.
  • fig. 1 shows usual design of the longitudinal rod in axonometric projection
  • fig. 2 shows usual design of the rocking stabilizer in axonometric projection
  • fig. 3 shows the new design of the longitudinal rod in axonometric projection
  • fig. 4 shows a cross section through the central part of the new longitudinal rod with the rubber insert
  • fig. 5 shows a cross section through the cross-pin joint with the rubber-metallic springs.
  • the device for longitudinal guiding of mutually spring-loaded parts of a rail vehicle illustrated in the example embodiment in figures. 3, 4 and 5 consists of a draw rod 1 , connecting mutually spring-loaded parts of a vehicle, a bogie frame R and a bolster K or a coach bottom by means of cross-pin joints /4/ and split clam brackets, first bracket /6/ and second bracket /7/, which are attached to the bogie frame /R/ and to the bolster /K/ or to the coach bottom.
  • the longitudinal draw rod 1 is provided with forks 2 at both ends, in which there are two friction or anti-friction first bearings 3 impressed with their outer rings.
  • first bearings 3 are pressed with their inner rings on two pins of a cross-pin joint 4 .
  • Two more friction or anti-friction second bearings 5 are impressed with their inner rings on the other two pins of the cross-pin joint 4 and their outer rings are embedded in split clam brackets, first bracket 6 , and second bracket 7 , which are arranged on the opposite mutually spring-loaded parts of the vehicle, i.e. to the bogie frame R and to the bolster K or to the bogie frame R and to the coach bottom.
  • second bearings 5 turn around their common axis.
  • At least one pair of the first bearings 3 or second bearings 5 in each rod 1 is designed as an elastic rubber-metallic spring 3a or 5a .
  • This couple of bearings, rubber-metallic springs then enables the appropriate movement of the bolster K in relation to the bogie frame R thanks to torsion deformation of the rubber layer between the inner and outer cases of these cylindrical springs - first bearings 3a or second bearings 5a.
  • the pair of springs also enables limited rotary movement of the bolster K in relation to the bogie frame R around the x axis, which stabilizes the bolster and thus also the vehicle body against rocking
  • the device according the invention is applicable to rail vehicles, particularly to the low-deck ones.
