A DEVICE FOR DETECTING DERAILMENT OF TRAINS

摘要

"A DEVICE FOR DETECTING DERAILMENT OF TRAINS, to be attached to the car, that acts promptly in the event of derailment, fully or emergently actuating the brake system of the train; said operating device being provided only with mechanical and pneumatic signals, not requiring electric and/or radio signals. The device is comprised of a general piping (20) connected to a so-called fuse element (10), through a tubing (11); the fuse (10) being defined by a blind flange that in principle blocks the air flow; a puncture (12) being provided in the interior of said fuse, and its body being machined in such a way that a suitable region (4) for the occurrence of a disruption and the consequent fast relief of the air present in the general plumbing (20) is created.
