Rail vehicle wheel ridge clearance detection method for detecting transverse dimension detects a wheel ridge clearance on a rail vehicle's two opposing wheels with flexible bearings on a wheel axle

摘要

In order to simplify the detection of a transverse dimension and to facilitate measuring accuracy and track measurement of a track (1), distance values (y1,y2) are measured between geometric reference points (12,13) on wheels (4,5) on one wheel axle (7) and geometric reference points (10,11) on sensors (8,9). An independent claim is also included for a device for detecting a transverse dimension, e.g. a wheel ridge clearance on a rail vehicle's two opposing wheels with flexible bearings on a wheel axle.
