Abstract: A drive assembly is provided for a rail vehicle, having at least one motor, at least one wheel set shaft or at least one rail vehicle wheel, and at least one elastic coupling that has at least one elastic device, wherein the at least one elastic coupling is embodied to couple the at least one motor directly to the wheel set shaft or directly to the at least one rail vehicle wheel.

Abstract: A coupling device for a vehicle drive is provided, in particular of a rail vehicle drive, comprising at least one first coupling, which has at least one first thread-reinforced joint device, wherein the first thread-reinforced joint device has at least one thread pack, which is embedded into at least one elastic body; the at least one first coupling device has at least one supporting device, which is connected to the first thread-reinforced joint device; the at least one supporting device supports the first thread-reinforced joint device in the radial direction.

Abstract: A coupling device is provided for connecting a motor to a transmission of a vehicle, particularly of a railway vehicle, with at least one first flange, at least one second flange, at least one first thread-reinforced joint mechanism, at least one second thread-reinforced joint mechanism, and at least one connection assembly that is arranged between the first and the second thread-reinforced joint mechanism. The at least one first thread-reinforced joint mechanism and the at least one second thread-reinforced joint mechanism define a connection area between them in the direction of the center axis of the coupling device, with it being possible to connect the first thread-reinforced joint mechanism starting from this connection area to the at least one connection assembly and the first flange, and to connect the second thread-reinforced joint mechanism to the at least one connection assembly and the at least one second flange.

Abstract: A dock bumper is provided for attaching to a building, the dock bumper comprising at least one fixation system for fixing the dock bumper, at least one elastic body connected to the at least one fixation system, and at least one impact system for transmitting to the elastic body the impact forces arising from the impact of the vehicle.

Abstract: A system for retaining a back plate of a disc brake pad is described. The system includes an elongated resilient element for applying a force to the back plate, a base of the resilient element extending along an edge of the back plate, contacting the edge along a majority of its length, legs of the resilient element, extending from the base, generating the force applied to the back plate by the base when deformed by a compression element, and retaining elements for preventing axial displacement of ends of the resilient element, and lateral slipping of the resilient element.
