COUPLER ASSEMBLY FOR COUPLING RAILWAY WAGONS

摘要

The coupler assembly for coupling railway wagons comprises a pulling apparatus (10) positioned between a front stop (6) and a rear stop (7) in space between central girders (1, 2) of a railway carriage. The front stop (6) is fixed rigidly to the central girders (1, 2) of the wagon frame. The solution is characterised by the fact that the rear stop (7) is mounted in a moving manner between the central girders (1, 2) of the wagon frame, and a support bracket (9), fixed permanently to the wagon frame, is positioned behind the rear stop (7), whereby an increased energy absorption unit (12) is positioned between the support bracket (9) and the rear stop (7).
