- Fig. 11 is an E-E cross-sectional view (see Fig. 3 ) of the bolster constituting the underframe.
- the bolster 14 is connected to the side beams 11 and the center sills 12 constituting the underframe of the structure body 1 by mechanical fastening means such as bolts.
- the cylindrical bodies 59 (bushes) provided in the bolster 14, which are used for the above fastening, are provided in two rows or a row in the longitudinal direction 100 of the structure body 1.
- the center pin 15 serving as center of revolution of the bogie 5 is provided on a center portion in the width direction 110 of the lower surface (a surface on which the bogie 5 is provided) of the bolster 14.
- the center pin 15 and the bogie are coupled by a traction device, and traction force and brake force are transmitted to the structure body 1 from the bogie 5 via the traction device.
- the pair of air springs 8 are provided on a center portion in the longitudinal direction 100 of the bolster 14 so as to be provided in the width direction 110 thereof and interposes the center pin 15 therebetween.
- the bolster 14 in this example is not made up of only metal components.
- the first composite material 33 and the second composite material 35 are provided on both the surfaces in the vertical direction (height direction) of the plate-shaped core 50 made of metal, and therefore, even in a case where a bending load is applied to the bolster 14, the above-mentioned composite materials having high tensile strength and compressive strength mainly bear the load.
- the above-mentioned composite materials having high tensile strength and compressive strength mainly bear the load.
- it is possible to promote reduction in weight of the bolster 14 and the bolster 14 can have high bending strength and rigidity.
- the bolster 14 in this example can have high strength, rigidity, and durability (weather resistance) of a metal component, and it is possible to provide a railway car capable of reducing a life cycle cost.
- the bolster 14 in this example has a hybrid structure including the core 50 made of metal, the first composite material 33, and the second composite material 35. Therefore, even in a case where mechanical strength of the composite materials is lost due to degradation over time and the like, the metallic core 50 can secure residual strength, and thus the bolster 14 can have high reliability.
- recessed portions are provided on the side beams 11 and the center sills 12 and the bolster 14 and the side beams 11 and the center sills 12 are mechanically fastened to each other in a state in which the cylindrical bodies 59 forming the bolster 14 are fitted into those recessed portions, it is possible to maintain fastening without the bolster 14 sliding on the side beams 11 or the center sills 12 even in a case where traction force or brake force is applied to the bolster 14 from the bogie 5. Furthermore, because the recessed portions are provided, it is possible to reduce the number of mechanical fastening portions and the number of cylindrical bodies 59, and therefore it is possible to reduce a production cost and promote reduction in weight.
- the bolster 14 in this example is assembled by a metallic core and composite materials with an adhesive and therefore has a high attenuation rate.
- the vibration is attenuated in a process of transmitting the vibration through the inside of the bolster 14, and therefore the vibration is hardly transmitted to the underframe 10. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce in-car noise and vibration which are generated due to vibration of the structure body 1 from the bogie 5. This makes it possible to provide a comfortable railway car.
- a state monitor system that includes an accelerometer 90 and monitors a vibration level of the bolster 14 that is in an operation state may be mounted on the upper surface (surface facing the lower surface of the underframe 10) of the bolster 14 constituting the underframe 10.
- the vibration level and a natural oscillation frequency of the bolster 14 monitored by the accelerometer 90 are changed.
- normality of the bolster 14 can be always monitored. This makes it possible to provide a railway car having high reliability.
- the bolster 14 includes a glass fiber layer (see Fig. 10 ) serving as the insulating material 36 on boundary surfaces between the core 50 made of an aluminum alloy and the composite materials (first composite material 33 and second composite material 35) .
- a glass fiber layer serving as the insulating material 36 on boundary surfaces between the core 50 made of an aluminum alloy and the composite materials (first composite material 33 and second composite material 35) .
- the bolster 14 includes the electroconductive cylindrical bodies 59, and therefore it is possible to easily form the grounded circuit (see Fig. 11 ) that extends to the bogie 5 from the structure body 1 (center sills 12 and side beams 11 forming underframe 10) via the bolster 14 through those cylindrical bodies 59.
- This makes it possible to provide a railway car having high reliability and capable of restraining electric devices from being broken or reset due to a surge current.
