Abstract

218,706. Peter, B. H., Winter, H. J., and Westinghouse Brake & Saxby Signal Co., Ltd. March 10, 1923. Fluid-pressure brakes controlled either electrically or by variations in train pipe pressure. The complete release of the brakes by electric means is prevented by interposing a loaded check valve in the passage leading from the brake cylinder to atmosphere. The braking system shown in Fig. 1 comprises a driver's valve 3, triple valve 1, auxiliary reservoir, and brake cylinder 2, and an electrically-controlled release valve 7 controlling the exhaust from the brake cylinder through the pipe 29 to an exhaust port 25. When the valve winding 9, Fig. 2, is energized, the rod 20 is raised to open the exhaust valve 20 against its spring 22, but when the brake cylinder pressure has fallen to a predetermined value, the check valve 26 closes under the aotion of the spring 27 to prevent further release, complete release being effected pneumatically. The winding 9 is energized by tilting the handle 19 of the driver's valve to close the contacts 18 by means of the pivoted arm 30, this action being permitted only when the handle is in the " lap " position.
