Abstract: A noise-absorbing device for a railway vehicle wheel includes: at least one strip extending radially from a connecting end capable of being fastened to the periphery of the wheel, to a free end; and at least one damping mass fastened on a face of the free end of the strip, away from the connecting end. The strip includes at least two metal or composite layers and at least one layer of viscoelastic material gripped between the two or composite metal layers.

Abstract: A rail vehicle that includes at least one car and at least one bogie that carries the car, the bogie including a chassis and a secondary suspension system between the chassis and the car, wherein the secondary suspension system includes a spring assembly mounted between the chassis and the car, the secondary suspension system including an actuator, provided with a piston extending at least partially between an upper stop secured to the car and a lower stop secured to the chassis, and a supply device of the actuator, and wherein supply device of the actuator is configured to supply the actuator such that the distance between the upper and lower stops is kept constant.

Abstract: Disclosed is a rail vehicle including at least one car and at least one bogie carrying the car. The bogie includes a chassis and a secondary suspension system between the chassis and the car. The secondary suspension system includes a spring assembly mounted between the chassis and the car.The secondary suspension system includes a actuator, provided with a piston extending at least partially between an upper stop secured to the car and a lower stop secured to the chassis, and a supply device of the actuator.The supply device of the actuator is able to supply the actuator such that the distance between the upper and lower stops is kept constant by the actuator.

Abstract: A railway vehicle including a plurality of bogies is provided. Each bogie includes a chassis, two front wheels and two rear wheels. For each front wheel and each rear wheel, a guidance device is provided for guiding the wheel in rotation and a primary suspension device of the chassis is provided on the guidance device. At least the primary suspension devices associated with the front and rear wheels are arranged on the same first lateral side of the bogie. The primary suspension devices each include two longitudinal connecting rods, each connected by a first connection point to the chassis and by a second connection point to the corresponding guidance device and at least one resilient component inserted between the two connecting rods to define at least the vertical stiffness of the primary suspension device, the two connecting rods being offset longitudinally relative to one another. Each of the bogies also includes a pivot connection device for connecting the bogie to the railway vehicle.

Abstract: A bogie for a railway vehicle including a chassis; two front wheels and two rear wheels; and for each front wheel and each rear wheel, a guide for guiding the wheel in rotation and a primary suspension device of the chassis on the guide is provided. At least the primary suspension devices associated with the front and rear wheels arranged on the same first lateral side of the bogie each include two longitudinal connecting rods, each connected to the chassis by a first connection point and to the corresponding guide by a second connection point, and at least one resilient component inserted between the two connecting rods to define at least the vertical stiffness of the primary suspension device, the two connecting rods being offset longitudinally from one another.

Abstract: A railway vehicle including two end bogies is provided. Each end bogie includes a chassis; two front wheels and two rear wheels; for each front wheel and each rear wheel, guide for guiding the wheel in rotation and a primary suspension device of the chassis on the guide. At least the primary suspension devices associated with the front and rear wheels arranged on the same first lateral side of the bogie include two longitudinal connecting rods, each connected by a first connection point to the chassis, and by a second connection point to the corresponding guide, at least one resilient component inserted between the two connecting rods to define at least the vertical stiffness of the primary suspension device, the two connecting rods being offset longitudinally relative to one another. Each end bogie includes pivot connector suitable for connecting the end bogie to the vehicle.

Abstract: A rail vehicle of the type comprising including at least one equipped axle which is provided with a transmission shaft which is movable in terms of rotation and which is fixedly joined in terms of rotation to two wheels, each of which is provided with a tire, the device including an electric current supply source, the source supplying a friction assembly with electric current. The friction assembly is alone and is electrically connected to a cable assembly which electrically connects the tires of the two wheels, the cable assembly including a cable portion which extends inside the transmission shaft between the two wheels.
