  • Chassis for rail vehicle
    Patent number: 11400961
    Abstract: A chassis for rail vehicles includes at least one support structure, at least one first primary spring and a second primary spring, at least one first drive motor transmission unit connected to the at least one support structure via at least one first suspension element, at least one first wheelset and at least one first clutch connected to the at least one drive motor transmission unit and to the at least first wheelset, wherein the at least first drive motor transmission unit is connected to the at least one support structure via a coupling element that is loadable primarily in the direction of a chassis longitudinal axis so as to create advantageous construction conditions such that an advantageous movability of the support structure and the first wheelset relative to each other is achieved.

  • Rail vehicle having tilting technology
    Patent number: 9701322
    Abstract: A rail vehicle having tilting technology includes a car body supported on at least two chassis. At least one of the chassis is connected to the car body by an active tilting technology system and at least one additional chassis is connected to the car body by a passive tilting technology system. The tilt of the car body is applied exclusively by the active tilting technology system. Thus, uncontrolled twisting and loading of the car body is avoided.

  • Emergency pneumatic spring with centering action
    Publication number: 20060180048
    Abstract: A pneumatic spring (LUF) for a rail vehicle (SFZ), comprising two bellow rims (BF1, BF2) mounted one above the other and interconnected by pneumatic-suspension bellow (LBA). One of the bellow rims (BF1) comprises a groove (NUT) and the other rim (BF2) comprises a counterpart (GGS) for the groove (NUT), which permit an automatic centering of the two bellow rims (BF1,BF2) in relation to one another in the transversal direction (Q) of the vehicle, if the pneumatic spring (LUF) fails.
