Disclosed is a sliding lock-on device for track-bound wheeled vehicles including a member (12) and a grounding pad (14). A first end (16) of the member (12) is configured to be connected to a guide frame (64) of a rail vehicle. The grounding pad (14) is attached to a second end (18) of the member. The grounding pad may be attached to the member in any location suitable for collecting ground from a guide beam (44) during use. A pair of lock-on devices is installed on the vehicle, such that one is located on each side of the guide beam. Since the lock-on device is attached to the guide frame (64) of the vehicle and engages the underneath of the guide beam (44), any force tending to tip the vehicle will cause the lock-on device to "grab" the guide beam. The relationship of the guide beam (44) and the grounding pad (14) prevents the vehicle from tipping. Thus, track jumping and roll over are inhibited. <IMAGE> |
