Abstract

The various embodiments herein provide an onboard track switching mechanism for a railroad vehicle to switch from one track to another. Currently available onboard railroad vehicle switching mechanisms employ complicated coordination between one or more switching wheels and complex control systems. Accordingly, system and method For enabling a railroad vehicle to switch tracks is disclosed. The system comprises a a running track that supports an automotive a switching track comprising a set of static components and a switching mechanism installed- on the automotive, the switching mechanism configured for controlling the movement of one or more switching wheels such that when activated, the switching mechanism is configured to facilitate engagement of the: one or more switching wheels withthe switching track for carrying out a track changing operation for the automotive.

Description

[0001] This disclosure claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 588,124, filed November 17, 2017, entitled "SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SWITCHING RAILCARS USING ASTATIC RAIL-TRACK CONFIGURATION," which The contents are incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0002] Embodiments of the present invention disclose a mechanism for switching railway vehicle tracks. In particular, embodiments of the invention relate to a system and method for enabling rail vehicles to switch tracks using a static rail switching mechanism. Background technique [0003] Rail transport has been a popular means of transportation for more than a century. Most countries in the world have a network of railway lines throughout their territory. The mechanism for switching the tracks of a railroad car is one of the most important aspects of railroading because it is at the heart of what enables a railroad car to travel in a desired direction. [0004] Conventional rail switching...
