Abstract: A chassis for a rail vehicle includes at least one chassis frame to which at least one first wheel set and a second wheel set are coupled and to which at least one first drive unit and a second drive unit are connected, wherein a first coupling rod is connected at least to the first drive unit in an articulated manner and is configured to be coupleable to the vehicle body of the rail vehicle in an elastic manner, such that advantageous structural conditions are achieved.

Abstract: A bogie for locomotives is provided. Two wheelsets, each including a drive unit, are disposed in a bogie frame, wherein the wheelsets each include a wheelset shaft and two wheels. The drive unit comprises a motor unit and a transmission disposed to ride on an axle, and each motor unit is suspended at three points, namely at a main pivot point on the transverse beam of the bogie frame and two mounting points on a head beam of the bogie frame. Further, the motor unit is transversally elastically suspended; the transmission is mounted pivotally about the wheelset shaft but not displaceable along the wheelset shaft. The transmission is further connected to the motor unit by a transmission torque support, and the drive unit comprises a clutch by which the motor unit has a driving connection to the wheelset by the transmission.
