Pulling and pushing device for hinged connection of railway vehicles

摘要

Pulling and pushing device for hinged connection of railway vehicles comprising a central coupling rod (1) fixed to a rail vehicle on both sides using a fixing device (5) provided with a ball-and-socket joint (7). The rotating point (29) of said fixing device (5) lies in the region of or behind a power inlet surface (26) through the mediation of which collision forces are conveyed from the coupling rod (1) to each fixing device (5). Devices are arranged between the power inlet surface (26) and the coupling rod (1) to push the power transfer centre of gravity (X) for collision forces in the deviating direction of the coupling rod (1).
