SINGLE-AXLE RUNNING GEAR WITH MOVABLE INDEPENDENT WHEELS FOR ARTICULATE D CAR TRANSPORTER WAGONS

摘要

The rolling monoaxle with independent displaceable wheels for articulated railway carriages intended to the transportation of cars comprises a carrier frame (1), suspension springs (2) with internally mounted vertical dampers, sliding pads for supporting a rolling axle upon changing the track width or gauge, suspension heads (4) with stabilizing arms (5), suspension pendulums connected to the suspension heads, and rolling guide systems. The invention is useful to use articulated platform railway carriages for the transportation of cars in railway networks having two different gauges.
