Wheel set for a rail vehicle
10370009 · 2019-08-06 · ·

A wheel set for a rail vehicle, in particular for a locomotive, includes two track wheels which are connected by a wheel axle mounted in two wheel set bearings. Each wheel set bearing includes a cast bearing housing, which is closed by an outer housing cover and an inner pressure ring. In addition, the bearing housing has a clamping position for engaging a tensioning device of a machine tool for machining the wheel set. Since the clamping position is integrated in the pressure ring, the clamping position can be easily cut to size and the bearing housing can be produced in a weight-optimized and cost-effective way in comparison to known bearing housings.

Bogie axle assembly

A bogie axle assembly having a housing, a spindle, a drive sprocket unit, and a planetary gear set. The drive sprocket unit may be fixedly disposed on a planet gear carrier of the planetary gear set. The spindle may be fixedly disposed on the housing. The drive sprocket unit may be rotatably supported by at least one roller bearing assembly that may be disposed between the spindle and the drive sprocket unit.

Railway vehicle and axle box structure thereof

A railway vehicle and an axle box structure thereof are provided. The axle box structure includes an axle box body and a positioning node mounting seat. The axle box body includes an upper box body and a lower box body. The upper box body and the lower box body enclose a bearing mounting chamber together. A lower end surface of the upper box body has a convex portion, and an upper end surface of the lower box body has a concave portion. A first semi-circular hole and a second semi-circular hole are respectively provided at the middle of the upper box body and the lower box body. If the convex portion and the concave portion are assembled in a sealed coupling manner, the bearing mounting chamber is formed by the first semi-circular hole and the second semi-circular hole.
