Rail vehicle bogie, a method of machining the bogie, and a tool for implementing the method

摘要

The bogie comprises an axle (14) rotatably mounted on a fixed underframe, and measurement apparatus for measuring a physical magnitude related to rotation of the axle (14). The measurement apparatus (34) comprises a metal disk (36) secured to the axle (14) and provided with at least one mark-forming perforation (40), and a fixed detection assembly (50) for detecting the mark, which assembly comprises at least one inductive proximity detector (52). Preferably, the disk (26) is fixed to a collector ring (26) of a current return assembly (24) for transferring the current coming from a motor of the bogie to the axle (14).
