Railcar axle box and method of producing the same

A railcar axle box includes an axle box main body accommodating a bearing supporting an axle. The axle box main body includes: an inner surface defining an accommodating space accommodating the bearing; a first side surface provided at an outer side of the inner surface and at one car width direction side of a car width direction center of the accommodating space; and a second side surface provided at an outer side of the inner surface and at the other car width direction side of the center. A shortest distance between the first side surface and the car width direction center of the accommodating space and a shortest distance between the second side surface and the center are equal to each other in a car width direction.

Railcar adapter for connecting a railcar body to a bearing

A railcar adapter for radially connecting a railcar body to a bearing. The railcar adapter includes an adapter body, and a top cover mounted onto an outer surface of the adapter body. The top cover is provided with at least one curved outer surface to be in direct radial contact with the railcar body.

Railcar adapter for connecting a railcar body to a bearing

A railcar adapter for radially connecting a railcar body to a bearing. The railcar adapter includes an adapter body having two lateral channels each delimited by a pair of opposed lugs and a lateral surface perpendicular to the opposed lugs, lateral channels being adapted to cooperate with the railcar body. The railcar adapter also includes two frontal surfaces, an inner surface acting as a bearing seat for the bearing, and an outer surface. The railcar adapter provides two frontal flanges that inwardly protrude with respect to the inner surface, and that delimit with the inner surface a housing for the bearing, and at least one of the flanges is distinct from the adapter body and is mounted to a frontal surface of the body.

Railcar adapter for connecting a railcar body to a bearing

A railcar adapter for radially connecting a railcar body to a bearing. The railcar adapter includes two lateral channels each delimited by a pair of opposed lugs and a lateral guiding surface perpendicular to the opposed lugs, lateral channels being adapted to cooperate with the railcar body. The lateral guiding surfaces of lateral channels, in cross-section through a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation of bearing, are curved.
