Definitions
- the present invention relates to a railway vehicle bogie, of the type comprising two pairs of wheels, the wheels of a pair being connected to each other by a connecting device to form an axle, said axles being connected to one another. to the other by a frame, each of the axles being hinged to the frame about an axis substantially parallel to the axis of the axles.
- the invention also relates to the railway vehicle comprising such a bogie.
- such bogies generally comprise four primary suspensions, for suspending the chassis of the truck relative to the axles, and two secondary suspensions, for suspending the vehicle body relative to the bogie frame.
- the four primary suspensions are each arranged between the axles and the bogie frame at each wheel, which constitutes a complex structure and having a large mass.
- An object of the invention is therefore to provide a simpler and lighter bogie.
- the subject of the invention is a bogie comprising two main suspension devices, each being connected on the one hand to a different axle, and on the other hand to a single elastic articulation forming a suspension of the chassis with respect to the axles .
- the bogie according to the invention thus comprises only one primary suspension, instead of the four traditionally provided.
- the structure of the bogie is greatly simplified and lightened while maintaining the suspension performance of the bogie.
- the invention further relates to a railway vehicle comprising a bogie, as defined above.
- the terms “vertical” and “horizontal” are defined with respect to a bogie mounted in a railway vehicle and arranged on rails.
- a horizontal plane is substantially parallel to the plane in which the axles extend and the vertical plane is substantially parallel to the plane in which the wheels extend.
- the term “longitudinal” is defined with respect to the direction in which a railway vehicle extends in a horizontal plane and the term “transverse” is defined in a direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction in a horizontal plane.
- a railway vehicle bogie 1 (not shown), for example a subway, a tram or a train, is described.
- the bogie is intended to be connected in a known manner to a box (not shown) of the railway vehicle.
- the bogie 1 comprises two axles 2, 3, a chassis 4, two main suspension devices 6, 7, an elastic articulation 8 and a driving device 10.
- Each axle 2, 3 comprises a pair of wheels respectively 12, 13 and 14, 15. In a conventional manner, the wheels may be provided with brake disks 16. The wheels of a pair 12 to 15 are connected to each other. other by a connecting device 18, 20 to form the axle 2, 3.
- each connecting device 18, 20 comprises, on the one hand, a central non-rotating part 26, 28 constituted for example by the casing of a motor 30, 32, or integrating this motor, and on the other hand lateral reduction units 34, 35, 36 and 37.
- Each gear comprises a small wheel 38 integral in rotation with the motor shaft and a large wheel 39 integral with the axis of a wheel.
- the small wheel 38 and the large wheel 39 mesh together so that the rotation of the motor shaft causes the wheels 12, 13, 14, 15 to rotate through the gearboxes.
- the wheels thus rotate about an axis AA 'offset from the axis of rotation of the motor shaft 30, 32 B-B'.
- the axis of the connecting device 18, 20, substantially coinciding with the axis of rotation of the motor shaft, is here substantially parallel and offset at least longitudinally, and possibly vertically, with respect to the axis of the wheels 12 to 15.
- the axis of each connecting device 18, 20 is closer to the center of gravity of the bogie 1 than the axis of the pair of wheels 12 to 15 corresponding.
- the motor 30, 32 is fixed to the chassis of the bogie so as to form a mass suspended relative to the axles and not to suffer the effects of the rail, as will be described later.
- the two axles 2, 3 are connected to each other by the chassis 4.
- the axles 2, 3 are articulated to the chassis 4 about an axis CC 'substantially parallel to the axis of the axles 2, 3, and close to the axis B-B '.
- the chassis 4 comprises two longitudinal members 40, 42, extending substantially longitudinally. At each of its longitudinal ends, each spar 40, 42 is articulated to one of the connecting devices 18, 20 of the axles 2, 3 about the axis C-C ', by means of articulation 43, 44, 45 and 46.
- the central portion 26, 28, which forms a housing for the motor 30, 32 also forms a cross member of the frame. That is, the central portion 26, 28 extends from one spar to the other substantially transversely and is attached to each of these spars.
- Each main suspension device 6, 7 comprises a connecting piece connected by one of its ends 48, 50 to a different axle 2, 3.
- the end 48, 50 of the connecting piece has for example the shape of a fork comprising two branches 51, 52 fixed to the central portion 26, 28 of the connecting device 18, 20 of the corresponding axle 2, 3.
- Each branch is for example fixed to a transverse end of the structuring part so as to be able to take up the efforts of each wheel of the truck.
- the connecting pieces of the two main suspension devices 6, 7 are fixed to one another at their other end by a single elastic hinge 8.
- the elastic hinge 8 comprises for example a hollow rubber cylinder secured to the end of one of the connecting pieces and receiving an end integral with the end of the other connecting piece or a spring secured to the end of one of the connecting pieces and constrained against the end of the other connecting piece.
- the elastic articulation thus forms a ball joint allowing a rotational movement about a longitudinal axis of rotation and a transverse axis of rotation of the end of one of the connecting pieces with respect to the end of the other connecting piece.
- the elastic articulation 8 extends substantially to the right of the center of the bogie 1, that is to say substantially in the center of the longitudinal members in the longitudinal direction and mid-distance of each of the longitudinal members in the transverse direction. According to the embodiment shown in the figures, the elastic articulation extends vertically above the longitudinal members, that is to say that the longitudinal axis of the joint is offset vertically relative to the longitudinal members.
- the drive device 10 is connected at its center to the body of the railway vehicle by a body pivot 56.
- the drive device 10 also comprises two rods 58, 60 connected by one of their ends to the body pivot 56 and hinged to the body pivot about a substantially vertical axis.
- Each connecting rod 58, 60 is connected at its other end to a different connecting device 18, 20 and is articulated to this connecting device about a substantially transverse axis.
- the driving device 10, which has substantially the shape of a Z seen from below, as shown on the Fig. 3 , allows to distribute the movement of the body in the two connecting rods 58, 60 which distribute the forces in the two axles 2, 3. This allows the bogies to rotate independently of the body, so other bogies supporting the body. The train can then take tighter turns than if there were no training devices.
- the bogie 1 also comprises two secondary suspensions 70, 72, visible on the figure 1 , arranged on the longitudinal members 40, 42 and on which the rest of the vehicle is intended to rest. These secondary suspensions 70, 72 can dampen the movements of the truck 1 relative to the rest of the vehicle.
- the points L and L ' are the connection points of the spar 40 to the connecting devices 18, 20 of the two axles 2, 3.
- the points F and F' are the fixing points of each main suspension device 6, 7 on the central portion 26, 28 of the corresponding axle 2, 3.
- the two suspension devices 6, 7 meet at the elastic joint 8, here comprising a hollow rubber cylinder.
- a load greater than the tare (not shown) is applied to the longitudinal members 40.
- the spar 40 lowers relative to the situation of the figure 4 .
- the points L and L 'therefore also lower.
- the spar 40 and the suspension devices 6, 7 being attached to the connecting device 18, 20 of the corresponding axle 2, 3, the moment due to the load applying to the spar 40, and equal to the product of this load and the distance separating the point L to the wheel center, projected horizontally, is taken up by the distance separating the point L to the articulation 8, projected approximately vertically.
- the angles ⁇ and ⁇ 'are constant between the situations of the Figures 4 and 5 .
- the decline of the spar 40 therefore affects the orientation of the suspension devices 6, 7 which tend to come closer.
- the elastic articulation 8 then serves to control the deflection.
- the elastic articulation 8 also allows the truck 1 to resume lane left and ensure the parallelism of the axles while allowing to suspend the frame of the truck 1 and the bogie engines with respect to the axles 2 and 3.
- the structuring devices 18 and 20 opposite, associated with the two main suspension devices 6 and 7, are connected to each other by the hinge 8 on the one hand and the longitudinal members 40 and 42 by the hinges 43, 44, 45, 46 on the other hand, the assembly thus constituting a frame hinged about a substantially longitudinal axis while maintaining in cooperation with the longitudinal members 40 and 42 the parallelism of the axles 2 and 3.
- This invention therefore makes it possible to effectively replace the four primary suspensions in a single suspension, composed of two suspension devices 6, 7 and the elastic articulation 8, thus substantially lightening the bogie.
- the bogie has been described as comprising two motors and independent and separate wheel axles each connected to a motor by two reducers. However, it is understood that the invention also applies to bogies comprising only one motor driving in rotation a single axle or not including a motor, in the case of a bogie carrier. The invention also applies to a bogie comprising a shaft connecting the two wheels of an axle and connected to the engine via a single reducer.

Description
La présente invention concerne un bogie de véhicule ferroviaire, du type comprenant deux paires de roues, les roues d'une paire étant reliées l'une à l'autre par un dispositif de liaison pour former un essieu, lesdits essieux étant reliés l'un à l'autre par un châssis, chacun des essieux étant articulé au châssis autour d'un axe sensiblement parallèle à l'axe des essieux.The present invention relates to a railway vehicle bogie, of the type comprising two pairs of wheels, the wheels of a pair being connected to each other by a connecting device to form an axle, said axles being connected to one another. to the other by a frame, each of the axles being hinged to the frame about an axis substantially parallel to the axis of the axles.
L'invention concerne également le véhicule ferroviaire comprenant un tel bogie.The invention also relates to the railway vehicle comprising such a bogie.
Des bogies du type précité sont connus. Les documents
Cependant, de tels bogies comprennent généralement quatre suspensions primaires, permettant de suspendre le châssis du bogie par rapport aux essieux, et deux suspensions secondaires, permettant de suspendre la caisse du véhicule par rapport au châssis de bogie. Les quatre suspensions primaires sont chacune disposées entre les essieux et le châssis de bogie au niveau de chaque roue, ce qui constitue une structure complexe et présentant une masse importante.However, such bogies generally comprise four primary suspensions, for suspending the chassis of the truck relative to the axles, and two secondary suspensions, for suspending the vehicle body relative to the bogie frame. The four primary suspensions are each arranged between the axles and the bogie frame at each wheel, which constitutes a complex structure and having a large mass.
Des limites sur la masse roulante circulant sur les rails sont instaurées pour conserver les voies ferrées en bon état. Un des défis actuels dans le domaine des bogies est donc d'alléger les bogies et de les rendre plus simple d'un point de vue structurel. Une diminution de la masse du bogie permet ainsi de pouvoir transporter plus de biens ou de personnes, tout en limitant la dégradation des voies ferrées.Limits on the rolling mass on the rails are introduced to keep the tracks in good condition. One of the current challenges in the field of bogies is thus to lighten the bogies and make them simpler from a structural point of view. A reduction in the mass of the truck makes it possible to carry more goods or people, while limiting the degradation of railways.
Un but de l'invention est donc de fournir un bogie plus simple et plus léger.An object of the invention is therefore to provide a simpler and lighter bogie.
A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un bogie comprenant deux dispositifs de suspension principale, chacun étant relié d'une part à un essieu différent, et d'autre part à une unique articulation élastique formant une suspension du châssis par rapport aux essieux.For this purpose, the subject of the invention is a bogie comprising two main suspension devices, each being connected on the one hand to a different axle, and on the other hand to a single elastic articulation forming a suspension of the chassis with respect to the axles .
Le bogie selon l'invention ne comprend donc qu'une seule suspension primaire, au lieu des quatre prévues traditionnellement. La structure du bogie est donc grandement simplifiée et allégée tout en conservant les performances de suspension du bogie.The bogie according to the invention thus comprises only one primary suspension, instead of the four traditionally provided. The structure of the bogie is greatly simplified and lightened while maintaining the suspension performance of the bogie.
Selon des modes de réalisation particuliers de l'invention, le bogie présente l'une ou plusieurs caractéristiques suivantes, prise(s) isolément ou suivant toute(s) combinaison(s) techniquement possible(s) :

- les dispositifs de suspension comprennent chacun une partie extrême en forme de fourche comprenant deux branches fixées au dispositif de liaison de l'essieu correspondant ;
- l'articulation élastique entre les deux dispositifs de suspension est un cylindre en caoutchouc évidé ;
- l'articulation élastique entre les deux dispositifs de suspension comprend un ressort ;
- les dispositifs de liaison comprennent chacun un moteur et un réducteur tel que l'axe du dispositif de liaison est sensiblement parallèle et décalé au moins longitudinalement par rapport à l'axe des roues ;
- l'axe du dispositif de liaison de chaque essieu est plus proche du centre de gravité du bogie que l'axe de la paire de roues correspondante ;
- les essieux comprennent chacun une partie non tournante à laquelle est fixé le dispositif de suspension correspondant à l'essieu ; et
- le bogie comprend deux longerons s'étendant de part et d'autre des essieux, dont chaque dispositif de liaison est articulé à une extrémité de chaque longeron.
- the elastic articulation extends substantially to the right of the center of the bogie;
- the suspension devices each comprise a fork-shaped end portion comprising two branches fixed to the connecting device of the corresponding axle;
- the elastic articulation between the two suspension devices is a hollow rubber cylinder;

- the axles each comprise a non-rotating part to which is fixed the suspension device corresponding to the axle; and
- the bogie comprises two longitudinal members extending on either side of the axles, each connecting device is articulated at one end of each spar.
L'invention a en outre pour objet un véhicule ferroviaire comprenant un bogie, tel que défini ci-dessus.The invention further relates to a railway vehicle comprising a bogie, as defined above.

Dans la description, les termes « vertical » et « horizontal » sont définis par rapport à un bogie monté dans un véhicule ferroviaire et disposé sur des rails. Ainsi, un plan horizontal est sensiblement parallèle au plan dans lequel s'étendent les essieux et le plan vertical est sensiblement parallèle au plan dans lequel s'étendent les roues. Le terme « longitudinal » est défini par rapport à la direction dans laquelle s'étend un véhicule ferroviaire dans un plan horizontal et le terme « transversal » est défini selon une direction sensiblement perpendiculaire à la direction longitudinale dans un plan horizontal.In the description, the terms "vertical" and "horizontal" are defined with respect to a bogie mounted in a railway vehicle and arranged on rails. Thus, a horizontal plane is substantially parallel to the plane in which the axles extend and the vertical plane is substantially parallel to the plane in which the wheels extend. The term "longitudinal" is defined with respect to the direction in which a railway vehicle extends in a horizontal plane and the term "transverse" is defined in a direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction in a horizontal plane.

L'invention s'applique également à un bogie comprenant un arbre reliant les deux roues d'un essieu et relié au moteur par l'intermédiaire d'un seul réducteur.The bogie has been described as comprising two motors and independent and separate wheel axles each connected to a motor by two reducers. However, it is understood that the invention also applies to bogies comprising only one motor driving in rotation a single axle or not including a motor, in the case of a bogie carrier. The invention also applies to a bogie comprising a shaft connecting the two wheels of an axle and connected to the engine via a single reducer.
