Disclosed is a method, system, and computer readable medium including program instructions for controlling the braking of one or more vehicles in a vehicle system positioned for unloading/loading of cargo. The vehicle system includes a designated head-end and a tail-end and each of the one or more vehicles is equipped with an electronic braking system in communication with a central control via a communication network spanning across the vehicle system. A dynamic unloading/loading braking profile can be set on at least one electronic braking system on at least one vehicle. During unloading/loading of the cargo from one or more vehicles in the vehicle system, the braking on at least one of the vehicles in the vehicle system is controlled via the dynamic unloading/loading braking profile.

A railcar airbrake system for attachment to or integration into machinery, such as a wheel loader preferably includes a rail car coupler, a glad hand air hose, a compressor, an air storage tank and a sliding base frame. The sliding base frame preferably includes a plurality of top and bottom supports, a base support plate, top and bottom cross members, a coupler slide device and two vertical support posts. The railcar coupler and the glad hand air hose are retained in the coupler slide device. The plurality of supports, the cross members, plate and posts are used to create a structure, which incorporates the slide base frame. The air storage tank and the compressor are secured to the base support plate. The compressor supplies compressed air to the air storage tank. The air storage tank supplies compressed air to the glad hand air hose.

A train compartment brake control method includes: acquiring the number of train compartments of a current train; acquiring the number and type of a current train compartment; and on the basis of a train brake instruction and the number of train compartments of the current train, calculating a braking force of the current train compartment, and performing brake control on the current train compartment. The technical solution described in the present application is applicable to a train having any number of train compartments. The above method acquires the number of train compartments of a train in real time, calculates the braking force required by each train compartment according to the number and type of a current train compartment, and performs brake control on the train.

A bogie and a rail vehicle, wherein the bogie includes: a framework, a wheel pair connected to the framework, a braking hanger fixed to the framework, a hanger slider used for fixedly connecting to a vehicle wheel braking clamp, and a transmission member; the hanger slider is connected to the braking hanger, and the transmission member is connected to the hanger slider; a first end of the transmission member extends to a side surface of a vehicle wheel in the wheel pair, and the transmission member is used to drive the hanger slider to move along the lateral direction with respect to the braking hanger when the first end is subjected to a thrust applied in the lateral direction by the vehicle wheel, so that the vehicle wheel braking clamp moves to a position corresponding to the vehicle wheel.

Disclosed is a brake system for a railroad vehicle, including a parking brake provided with a piston and having a first configuration in which the piston is in a working position in which it acts on a lining support and applies a predetermined force to a brake disc; a second configuration in which the piston is in a rest position in which it does not act on the support and does not apply any force to the disc; and a third configuration in which, when the vehicle is not at a standstill and the ambient temperature in the environment of the disc is greater than a threshold value, it forces the piston to move towards a trip position different from its working and rest positions, in order to limit or cancel the force applied to the disc.
