Braking system of a rail vehicle

摘要

The invention relates to a braking system of a rail vehicle, particularly of a railroad freight car, containing a parking brake device having a gearing which converts a rotating movement initiated by rotation-actuating devices to an application movement of at least one pressure-medium-operated cylinder piston drive. The invention provides that at least one universal-joint shaft (30) connecting the rotation actuating devices with a gearing input of a toothed gearing (12) arranged in the direct vicinity of the cylinder piston drive (10) is provided, as well as a nut screw drive (62) which converts the rotating movement at a gearing output (36) of the toothed gearing (12) to a linear movement of a piston (46) of the cylinder piston drive (10).
