Abstract: The invention relates to an articulated coupling comprising at least one tension-transferring or compression-transferring rod, at least one pressure plate comprising a cutting tool that comprises at least one blade and a central conically shaped recess. Furthermore, the articulated coupling comprises at least one conical threaded ring which comprises an internal thread and is slit in a longitudinal direction, wherein the rod comprises an external thread onto which the conical threaded ring is screwed. The cutting tool is arranged on a conical external surface of the conical threaded ring, wherein the conical threaded ring is arranged at least partially in the conically shaped recess.

Abstract: Joint arrangement (10) for a truck comprising at least one deformation element (12.1, 12.2), wherein the deformation element comprises at least one rod (14.1, 14.2) and a connection plate (16.1, 16.2), wherein the connection plate is arranged on the rod, wherein the rod has at least one stop element. The connection plate can be displaced on the rod in the longitudinal direction of said rod, wherein a deformation work can be performed on the deformation element in the event of a displacement of the connection plate on the rod; and wherein a displacement path of the connection plate on the rod is limited by the stop element (24.1, 24.2). Further a method for energy conversion is proposed.

Abstract: An absorbing apparatus includes a shock-absorbing unit that includes a front plate, a rear plate and a shock-absorbing core arranged between the front plate and the rear plate. The apparatus also includes a base connected to the rear plate of the shock-absorbing unit and having a rear plate, and a side shield surrounding at least partially the shock-absorbing core. One end of the side shield is connected to the front plate or the rear plate of the shock-absorbing unit, while the other end of the side shield is spaced-apart from the other of the front plate or the rear plate of the shock-absorbing unit. The base includes an energy absorbing element connected to the rear plate of the shock-absorbing unit and mounted in the rear plate of the base, while the rear plate of the base includes a cutting unit for cutting a surface of the energy absorbing element.

Abstract: The invention relates to a flexible clamp for securing a pin to a base yoke in an articulated joint connection, wherein the clamp comprises a body configured for mounting to the base yoke. The body of the clamp comprises at least one recess or aperture arranged in a vicinity of the pin contact part, which is shaped and sized to control deformation of the pin contact part of the clamp, when the clamp is secured to the base and engages the pin. The invention also relates to an articulated joint connection and a railway coupler comprising the clamp according the invention.
