A LOAD-TESTING APPARATUS FOR A TRAIN BOGIE FRAME

摘要

A load testing apparatus for a train bogie frame is provided to measure precise distribution load by a vertical load applied to a Bogie frame forcedly. A pair of main frames(11) are mounted with wheels of a train and connected with a pair of connection frames(12) in the center. A pair of sub frame(13) is connected between the connection frames. A pair of dummy axles(20) support the bogie frame. A plurality of supporting rods(40) separate the bogie frame from the ground surface. Each of the supporting rods is mounted with a load cell(41) for measuring vertical load of the bogie frame.
