  • Carrying structure of a rail vehicle
    Patent number: 9878726
    Abstract: A carrying structure of a rail vehicle upon which a carriage body is supported by coupling elements, where at least one coupling element is connected to the carrying structure via a positive and/or non-positive connection, and where at least a part of the carrying structure below or above the connection or at least one surface upwardly delimiting the coupling element is configured as a supporting element such that the coupling element can be attached at any desired location on the rail vehicle with little effort.
    Type: Grant

  • Brake Carrier For The Bogies Of Rail Vehicles
    Publication number: 20120111675
    Abstract: A brake carrier for bogies of rail vehicles has an open cross-section with flexible torsion. A connection to two longitudinal members of the bogie is designed as a rigid non-articulated connection and a braking device is fixed to the brake carrier in such a way that a line of action of braking forces runs through the shear centre that lies outside the cross-section of the brake carrier.
