[0028] The embodiments of the present invention are written in a progressive manner.
[0029] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, Figure 1 and Figure 2 A vehicle wheelset is provided, wherein Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the embodiment, the rigid wheel 3 is arranged on the outside of the elastic wheel 2, and the axle box is arranged on the outside of the rigid wheel 3; Figure 3 A second vehicle wheelset is provided, wherein the elastic wheel 2 is arranged on the outside of the rigid wheel 3, and the axle box is arranged on the inside of the rigid wheel 3; Figure 4 A third vehicle wheelset is provided, wherein the elastic wheel 2 is arranged on the outside of the rigid wheel 3, and the box axle is arranged between the elastic wheel 2 and the rigid wheel 3.
[0030] An embodiment of the present invention provides a vehicle wheelset, comprising: an axle 1; an elastic wheel 2 fixedly mounted on the outer side of the axle 1, wherein the two elastic wheels 2 are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the axle 1, and the elastic wheels are used in conjunction with a first rail 5; a rigid wheel 3 fixedly mounted on the outer side of the axle 1, wherein the two rigid wheels 3 are symmetrically arranged on the axle 1, and wherein the rigid wheel 3 has a support portion 31 and a rim portion 32, wherein the outer diameter of the support portion 31 is smaller than the outer diameter of the rim portion 32, and the rim portion 32 is used to contact the side of the second rail 6 for guidance.
[0031] It should be noted that the inner side in the present application refers to a side close to the center of the axle 1 , and the outer side in the present application refers to a side close to both ends of the axle 1 .
[0032] At present, the common wheel pairs of subway vehicles are rubber-wheeled vehicles and steel-wheeled vehicles. Rubber-wheeled vehicles use rubber wheels to carry loads, and their climbing ability, curve noise, and vehicle comfort have been significantly improved. However, rubber wheels are easy to wear. When rubber-wheeled vehicles are in an emergency situation such as severe wear, the vehicle may not be able to operate. Secondly, rubber-wheeled vehicles may have problems with being unable to guide when passing through switches.
[0033] Steel-wheeled vehicles are not easily worn and can guide vehicles when passing through switches, but they are noisy and not very comfortable.
[0034] In view of the above problems, the present invention provides a vehicle wheelset. The present invention provides a vehicle wheelset, firstly, because an axle 1 and an elastic wheel 2 are provided, wherein the elastic wheel 2 is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the axle 1, and the two elastic wheels 2 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the axle 1, and the elastic wheel 2 is used to cooperate with the first rail 5. When the vehicle is in a normal driving state, the elastic wheel 2 bears the weight of the whole vehicle, and the elastic wheel 2 rotates to drive the vehicle to run on the first rail 5, so that the vehicle runs more smoothly and comfortably, and the running noise is smaller; secondly, a rigid wheel 3 is also provided, the rigid wheel 3 is fixedly sleeved on the axle 1, and the two rigid wheels 3 are symmetrically arranged on the axle 1, the rigid wheel 3 has a support portion 31 and a rim portion 32, the outer diameter of the support portion 31 is smaller than the outer diameter of the rim portion 32, and the rim portion 32 is used to contact the side of the second rail 6 for guidance. When the vehicle is running normally, the outer surface of the elastic wheel 2 contacts the first rail 5 for bearing the weight of the vehicle, and the rim portion 32 contacts the side of the second rail 6 to guide the direction of the vehicle. The current elastic wheel 2 is prone to wear during operation. When the outer surface of the elastic wheel 2 is severely worn, the vehicle may not be able to operate normally. In the present application, a rigid wheel 3 is provided. When the outer surface of the elastic wheel 2 is severely worn, the support portion 31 contacts the second rail 6, thereby providing emergency support for the entire vehicle.
[0035] It can be seen that, compared with the prior art, the vehicle wheelset in the embodiment of the present invention can temporarily carry the vehicle when the rubber wheel is worn, ensure the normal operation of the vehicle, and can also guide the vehicle.
[0036] Furthermore, the elastic wheel 2 in the embodiment of the present invention is used to cooperate with the first rail 5, and the rigid wheel 3 is used to cooperate with the second rail 6. When the elastic wheel 2 is not worn, the outer peripheral surface of the elastic wheel 2 contacts the top surface of the first rail 5. At this time, the rim 32 of the rigid wheel 3 contacts the side of the second rail 6, and there is a preset gap between the support portion 31 of the rigid wheel 3 and the top surface of the second rail 6. The vehicle is supported by the first rail 5 and the elastic wheel 2, and guided by the side of the second rail 6 and the rim 32. When the elastic wheel 2 is worn to a certain extent, the support portion 31 of the rigid wheel 3 contacts the top of the second rail 6, and the vehicle is temporarily supported and guided by the side of the second rail 6 and the rim 32.
[0037] In order to ensure that there is a gap between the support portion 31 of the rigid wheel 3 and the second rail 6 when the elastic wheel 2 is not worn, as one implementation, the outer diameter of the support portion 31 in the embodiment of the present invention is smaller than the outer diameter of the elastic wheel 2 .
[0038] In the above structure, in order to make the second rail 6 and the rim 32 cooperate when the vehicle passes the switch, as one of the implementation methods, the surface of the rim 32 in the embodiment of the present invention that contacts the second rail 6 has a certain taper, which plays a guiding role.
[0039] Furthermore, when the turnout passes through a curve, the contact surface between the wheel rim 32 and the second steel rail 6 forms a certain taper, which plays a guiding role. Current rubber-tyred vehicles often need to be provided with guide wheels for guidance. Since the present application is provided with rigid wheels, there is no need to provide guide wheels. When the vehicle is running in a straight line, there is a gap between the wheel rim and the second steel rail 6, and there is no direct contact. When the vehicle moves along a curve, the wheel rim directly contacts the second steel rail 6, which plays a guiding role.
[0040] In the above structure, as one of the implementation modes, the elastic wheel 2 in the embodiment of the present invention includes a mounting plate 21 and an elastic wheel 22, wherein the mounting plate 21 is fixedly connected to the axle 1, and the elastic wheel 22 is fixedly mounted on the outer side of the mounting plate 21. The elastic wheel 22 can buffer the vibration of the vehicle and improve the comfort of the passengers.
[0041] Furthermore, the elastic wheel 22 and the mounting plate are detachably connected. When the elastic member is worn, the elastic wheel 22 can be replaced without replacing the entire elastic wheel 2.
[0042] As a first implementation manner, the elastic wheel 22 may be made of an elastic material, preferably a rubber material.
[0043] As a second embodiment, a buffer may be provided between the elastic wheel 22 and the mounting plate 21 to reduce vibration and noise.
[0044] In the above structure, as one of the implementation modes, the mounting plate 21 in the embodiment of the present invention and the axle 1 are specifically an interference fit, so that the mounting plate 21 is fixed on the axle 1, and the rigid wheel 3 and the axle 1 are specifically an interference fit, so that the rigid wheel 3 and the axle 1 are fixed.
[0045] In the above structure, in order to further ensure the stability of the elastic wheel 2 during operation, as one of the implementation modes, the vehicle wheelset in the embodiment of the present invention also includes a locking member 7, wherein the fastener is used to connect the mounting plate 21 and the rigid wheel 3, further ensuring that the mounting plate is fixedly set on the axle 1, and further ensuring the stability of the elastic wheel 2 during operation.
[0046] In the above structure, the specific position between the rigid wheel 3 and the elastic wheel 2 can be selected according to the actual use conditions. As a first specific implementation, the elastic wheel 2 in the embodiment of the present invention is arranged on the inner side of the rigid wheel 3, and correspondingly, the first rail 5 is arranged on the inner side of the second rail 6. As a second specific implementation, the elastic wheel 2 in the embodiment of the present invention is arranged on the outer side of the rigid wheel 3, and correspondingly, the first rail 5 is arranged on the outer side of the second rail 6. In the above two cases, when the vehicle is running normally, the elastic wheel 2 cooperates with the first rail 5, the elastic wheel 2 bears the weight of the vehicle, drives the vehicle to travel, and guides the vehicle through the cooperation of the rigid wheel 3 and the second rail 6.
[0047] In the above structure, as one specific implementation, the vehicle wheelset provided in the embodiment of the present invention further includes an axle box 4, which is sleeved on the axle 1, and the axle box 4 is rotatably connected to the axle 1. Two axle boxes 4 are provided, and the two axle boxes 4 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the axle 1. Specifically, the axle box 4 in the embodiment of the present invention is connected to the axle 1 through a bearing.
[0048] Furthermore, as one of the specific implementations, the position of the axle box 4 in the embodiment of the present invention can be adjusted according to the operating conditions of the vehicle. Specifically, the axle box 4 in the embodiment of the present invention can be set on the inner side of the rigid wheel 3, or the axle box 4 is set on the outer side of the elastic wheel 2; or the axle box is set between the elastic wheel 2 and the rigid wheel 3.
[0049] Preferably, the axle box 4 in this embodiment is arranged on the inner side of the rigid wheel 3, and the elastic wheel 2 is arranged on the outer side of the rigid wheel 3. In this case, the arrangement of the vehicle wheel set structure is more compact.
[0050] In the above structure, as one of the implementation modes, the vehicle wheelset in the embodiment of the present invention further includes a driving member, the output shaft of the driving member is connected to the axle 1, and the axle 1 is driven to rotate by the driving member, thereby driving the rigid wheel 3 and the elastic wheel 2 to rotate.
[0051] The present invention also provides a bogie, including the above-mentioned vehicle wheelset. Since a rigid wheel 3 and an elastic wheel 2 are provided, in an emergency, when the elastic wheel 2 cannot carry load, the rigid wheel 3 can be used for emergency load carrying, thereby solving the problem that the vehicle cannot move.
[0052] The present invention also provides a rail vehicle, including the above-mentioned bogie, which can also achieve the above-mentioned technical effects and will not be described in detail here.
[0053] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables one skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be apparent to one skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention will not be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but rather to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
