A self-locking anti-slip rail braking device is provided. The rail braking device includes a ladder-shaped support, a lifting unit, a roller-and-wedge plate mechanism, a roller support, and a rail clamping unit. The ladder-shaped support is connected under a surface of a balance beam of a port facility, and is connected at a middle part thereof with the lifting unit. A lower end of the lifting unit is hinged to two sides of the roller support. The roller support is provided on an upper end surface thereof with the roller-and-wedge plate mechanism, and is provided at a middle part thereof with the rail clamping unit. An upper end of the rail clamping unit serves as a force application end and is configured to match the roller-and-wedge plate mechanism, and a lower end of the rail clamping unit serves as a rail clamping end corresponding to two lateral sides of a rail.

The invention is an amusement-park device, comprising a rail-guided route course and at least one vehicle guided on the rail, which vehicle has a brake apparatus having at least one, preferably two brake pads fastened to a brake-pad carrier, which brake pads are provided for braking or clamping the vehicle at a point of the rail-guided route course during a braking event. According to the invention, the brake apparatus has a brake carrier and/or the at least two brake pads can be pivoted in relation to the stationary bike carrier. The vehicle equipped with such a brake apparatus can follow unevenness in the rail-guided route course in a simple manner, resulting in reliable braking behavior.

A brake control device for a brake system, wherein the brake system has at least one electromagnetic track brake device, which can be supplied with current at variable amperage according to the brake control device to create a braking force, and wherein the brake control device is designed to actuate the at least one electromagnetic track brake device at a cleaning amperage during travel in order to clean a rail. Also disclosed is a brake system having such a brake control device, a rail vehicle, and a method for cleaning a rail by means of an electromagnetic track brake device.

The disclosure discloses a system for controlling a multi-point synchronous braking of a monorail hoist and a utilization method thereof. The system comprises a contact detection unit, a common end roller unit, a hydraulic unit, a synchronous control unit and connection cables. The contact detection unit is installed on a brake shoe of a monorail hoist. The common end roller unit is installed on a travelling track and connected with a frame of the monorail hoist. The contact detection unit includes a tube in connection with the brake shoe. A metal probe corresponding to the travelling track is arranged inside the tube. A circular boss is formed on the metal probe. A limiting bolt corresponding to the circular boss is formed on an inner side wall of the tube. The metal probe is contactable with the travelling track or the limiting bolt when the brake shoe brakes.
