A monoblock wheel is shown and described with high thermal performance for rail vehicles, with a radial outer wheel rim, a radial inner wheel hub, which is mounted around a centre axle of the monoblock wheel, and a wheel disc which connects the wheel rim to the wheel hub. The wheel rim has a running surface, a flange, an outer side surface in a first plane and an inner side surface in a second plane, wherein the first plane and the second plane run orthogonally to the central axis, wherein the wheel flange has a reference plane running orthogonally to the central axis in the region of its running surface has a running circle diameter, wherein the reference plane relative to the second plane and the inner side surface of the rim is displaced in parallel to the outside by an axial distance, wherein the distance is preferably 50 mm to 80 mm, wherein the wheel rim, the wheel disc and the wheel hub are designed in one piece as a monoblock wheel, and wherein the wheel disc has a median line, the course of which is defined by several design points.

A support ring assembly for a railway axle having a support ring configured to be inserted between a rolling bearing and a collar of the railway axle, the support ring having an annular seat, a surface of a radially inner side wall fitted with a radial clearance over the collar and an end wall that abuts against the collar, an annular insert fitted into the seat by means of an annular shield and having an elastomeric annular element having at least two annular protuberances that engage with the collar, the annular element configured to engage with the collar so as to occupy the radial clearance.

A wheel arrangement for a rail vehicle, such as a light rail vehicle, can include a wheel unit and an axle unit. The axle unit can be connected to a running gear structure of the rail vehicle. The axle unit can rotatably support the wheel unit. The axle unit can have a wheel bearing unit that forms a bearing for the wheel unit and defines a wheel axis of rotation of the wheel unit during operation of the rail vehicle. The axle unit can also have a wheel support unit and a primary suspension unit. The primary suspension unit can be located kinematically in series between the wheel support unit and the wheel bearing unit such that the wheel support unit supports the wheel bearing unit via the primary suspension unit in a manner resilient in at least two mutually transverse translational degrees of freedom.

The present disclosure provides a composite powered wheel set, a train, a wheel-rail system and a train control method. The composite powered wheel set comprises two booster wheels and two support wheels mounted on a driving axle. The booster wheels are fixedly mounted on two ends of the driving axle, the support wheels are mounted on the driving axle via bearings, the moving axle is connected to a first transmission device, which is connected to a first power mechanism, and the driving axle is further connected to a train bogie via a connecting device. Booster wheels and booster rails are provided to improve anti-skid performance, so the train will not skid when running on a steep slope or under a heavy traction load. Restrictions on the railway slope, train traction load, and train speed are eliminated to a great extent, and the application scope of the wheel rails is expanded.
