<p>DISC BRAKE ASSEMBLY FOR RAILWAY VEHICLES A railway vehicle has a wheel and axle assembly journalled in a pivotable wheel frame and there is a brake disc rigidly attached to the axle in the vicinity of one wheel. A supporting frame extends substantially parallel to the axle and has on one end thereof a brake saddle to enclose the brake disc and on its other end a brake cylinder. An actuating rod is mounted for axial movement on the supporting frame also parallel to the axle and has one end connected to a lining on the brake saddle and its other end connected by a force transmitting linkage to the piston rod of the brake cylinder. The supporting frame is mounted on the wheel frame for longitudinal movement thereon by means of two aligned bearing connections at the ends of the supporting frame. The brake saddle is pivotally connected by a control lever to the wheel frame at a point spaced from the bearing on the brake saddle.</p> |
