CARBODY OF RAILCAR

A carbody of a railcar includes: a roof bodyshell; a supporting body provided under the roof bodyshell, the supporting body being attached to the roof bodyshell in a state of being positioned in the vertical direction; a rotating body which is threadedly engaged with the supporting body and rotates relative to the supporting body about an axis extending in a vertical direction to be displaced relative to the supporting body in the vertical direction; and a support target member supported by the roof bodyshell through the supporting body and the rotating body, the support target member being attached to the rotating body in a state of being positioned in the vertical direction, a vertical distance between the roof bodyshell and the support target member being adjustable by displacement of the rotating body relative to the supporting body.

Apparatus for viscous hydrocarbon transportation

A vessel for transporting a material that is solid or semi-solid at ambient temperature, includes a body having an interior surface comprising textured metal, and a superoleophobic coating on the interior surface for inhibiting the material from adhering to the interior surface, the superoleophobic coating including a nanotextured coating disposed on the textured metal and functionalized with a fluorinated compound. The superoleophobic coating facilitates flow of the material along the interior surface.

Noise-absorbent and odor-adsorbent fabric cover systems for vehicle interiors

The present disclosure provides cover systems for covering components of a cabin interior of a vehicle, such as an automobile, a train car, a bus, a boat, or an aircraft, among others. For instance, the cover systems may cover one or more of a seat and a floor, among others, of the cabin interior. The fabric cover systems may absorb or partially absorb one or more of low-frequency sounds, such as low-frequency noise emitted by an engine, and high-frequency sounds, among others. The fabric cover systems may absorb or partially absorb odor molecules. The fabric covering systems may include multiple layers. For instance, one of the layers may include activated carbon fibers. The activated carbon fibers may absorb or partially absorb one or more of sounds, liquids, and odors, among others.

RAIL TRAIN

A rail train is provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, comprising: a semi-enclosed air duct, the semi-enclosed air duct comprises an air duct top and an air duct side; the air duct top is fixed with an inner top of a rail train body, the air duct side is connected on both sides of the air duct top and extends downward; a large side top, and the the large side top is fixed to the rail train body as a part of a rail train roof, and the large side top is top-sealed at a bottom of the air duct side to form an air passage with the air duct. The rail train solves the technical problem that the roof and the air duct of the rail train are not conducive to overall weight reduction of the rail train.

Composite insulated boxcar floor

A floor section for an insulated railcar includes a floor plate and a composite section coupled to the floor plate. The composite section includes a plurality of composite beams aligned parallel to one another. Each composite beam of the plurality of composite beams includes an inner core and an outer material surrounding the inner core. The inner core includes an insulating material and is configured to support the outer material. An upper surface of each composite beam of the plurality of composite beams, which extends along a length of the composite beam, is coupled to an underside of the floor plate.
