  • Decoupling arrangement for non-insulated AC track circuits in railway systems
    Patent number: 4373691
    Abstract: A decoupling arrangement for non-insulated track circuits is disclosed wherein the receiving circuit of the evaluating unit for the AC track currents is electrically separated from the traction-current-carrying parts of the track. The cross bonds between the two rails of a track may be shorting bonds or so-called S bonds. The arrangement according to the invention improves the tuning behavior of the track circuit receivers considerably.
