[0040] See also Figure 1 The embodiment of the present invention provides a rail vehicle, including a vehicle body and a bogie, wherein the bogie is mounted on the vehicle body. The bogie includes a frame and a wheel drive system, wherein one end of the wheel drive system is connected to the frame.

[0041] In one embodiment, the wheel drive system includes two sets of wheel pairs 20, each wheel pair 20 includes a shaft sleeve 210 and a wheel 220 arranged at the end of the shaft sleeve 210, and the shaft sleeve 210 is also provided with a drive motor 30 and a gear box 40, one end of the drive motor 30 is connected to the shaft sleeve 210, and the other end is connected to the frame, and one end of the gear box 40 is connected to the drive motor 30, and the other end is connected to the shaft sleeve 210.

[0042] One end of the drive motor 30 is connected to the frame for hanging the drive motor 30 and the gear box 40 to bear the support traction and braking torque. The gear box 40 no longer needs to be provided with a connecting mechanism such as a hanger 320 to connect with the frame, which is beneficial to reducing the installation structure of the drive motor 30 and the gear box 40 on the wheel drive system, thereby facilitating the lightweight structure of the wheel drive system and saving the installation space of the entire drive system. The drive system here includes the drive motor 30, the gear box 40 and the brake 50, etc.

[0043] In one embodiment, the driving motor 30 and the shaft sleeve 210 are detachably connected.

[0044] The drive motor 30 and the shaft sleeve 210 are detachably connected, which is conducive to the maintenance of the drive motor 30. When the drive motor 30 needs to be repaired, the drive motor 30 can be removed from the shaft sleeve 210 and then repaired, which is more convenient and efficient for the maintenance of the drive system.

[0045] At least one connecting boss 2110 is disposed on the outer side of the shaft sleeve 210; at least one matching boss 310 is disposed on the outer side of the driving motor 30, and the matching boss 310 and the connecting boss 2110 are detachably connected via a threaded connector.

[0046] In one embodiment, the connecting boss 2110 is integrally provided with the shaft sleeve 210, and the matching boss 310 is integrally provided with the driving motor 30. Such an arrangement can save the production cost of the shaft sleeve 210 and the driving motor 30.

[0047] In another embodiment, the mating boss 310 and the drive motor 30 may also be detachably connected by bolts or other connecting members. Similarly, the connecting boss 2110 and the shaft sleeve 210 may also be detachably connected by bolts or other connecting members, so as to facilitate the maintenance and disassembly between the drive motor 30 and the shaft sleeve 210.

[0048] In one embodiment, the number of the connecting bosses 2110 and the number of the matching bosses 310 are both four, and the connecting bosses 2110 are arranged at opposite sides of the shaft sleeve 210 in a radial direction with two bosses spaced apart from each other.

[0049] The four connecting bosses 2110 and the matching bosses 310 can improve the connection stability between the drive motor 30 and the shaft sleeve 210. In some other embodiments, the number of the connecting bosses 2110 and the matching bosses 310 can also be six, eight, etc., which is not limited here.

[0050] In one embodiment, the threaded connector is a stud, one end of which is connected to the mating boss 310, a mounting hole 2111 is provided on the connecting boss 2110, and the other end of the stud is passed through the mounting hole 2111 and the connecting boss 2110 and the mating boss 310 are locked by locking.

[0051] In some further embodiments, the threaded connector may also be a screw, which passes through the connecting boss 2110 and the matching boss 310 in sequence to connect the sleeve 210 and the drive motor 30, which is not limited here.

[0052] The wheel drive system is also provided with a brake 50 , which is mounted on the shaft sleeve 210 and integrated at the end of the gear box 40 .

[0053] With such arrangement, the brake 50 does not need to be provided with an additional connection structure, which can simplify the structure of the wheel drive system and meet the requirement of lightweighting the wheel drive system.

[0054] In one embodiment, the brake 50 is detachably connected to the gear box 40 .

[0055] An axle for controlling the rotation of the wheel 220 is provided in the shaft sleeve 210. The output end of the drive motor 30 is connected to the gear set in the gear box 40, and the output end of the gear set is connected to the axle. The operation of the drive motor 30 can drive the axle to rotate through the gear box 40, and then drive the wheel 220 to rotate. The brake 50 adopts a full-disc brake device, which forms a whole with the gear box 40. The function of the brake 50 is to brake. A brake cylinder (not shown) is installed at the end of the brake 50. The action of the brake cylinder can press the dynamic disc and the static disc, and its friction torque can brake the axle. The braking principle of the drive motor 30, the gear box 40 and the brake 50 belongs to the technical means well known to those skilled in the art, and will not be elaborated here.

[0056] In one embodiment, the brake 50 and the gear box 40 are detachably connected via flange bolts.

[0057] In this way, when maintenance is required, the gear box 40 and the brake 50 can be removed together, making maintenance and disassembly more convenient.

[0058] In summary, the gear box 40 does not need to be provided with a suspension rod 320, which can simplify the structure of the gear box 40. The drive motor 30 and the gear box 40 are simplified into an elastic integral type, which can reduce the relative displacement between the drive motor 30 shaft and the gear box 40, which is beneficial to the selection of the coupling, saves the space of the drive system, and is beneficial to the requirement of lightweight drive system. The brake 50 is installed on the shaft sleeve 210 and the gear box 40. The annular brake disc has only a circumferential load on the axle under the braking condition, and no unidirectional load, so a thinner axle can be selected under the same load conditions.

[0059] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
