Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application with the application date of "2022.08.19", application number "202210997789.7", and application name "A device for disassembling the coupling cover of an EMU and its use method". Technical Field

[0002] The invention belongs to the technical field of rail transportation, and in particular relates to a method for disassembling a coupling cover plate of an EMU. Background Art

[0003] The coupling is a key component of the transmission system of the railway train bogie, and the quality requirements for the manufacturing and repair of the coupling products are relatively high. The internal state of the coupling needs to be confirmed before assembly, so the coupling cover needs to be disassembled. According to the structural characteristics of the coupling, the cover and the coupling body are clamped by a sealing ring, and the center of the cover is opened, and it can be pulled out by applying force through the center hole. At present, if the cover is pulled out by human force alone, the strength of the fingers cannot overcome the clamping force of the cover; using general tools such as crowbars, screwdrivers, etc., although the cover can be pried open, the fulcrum position of the prying is prone to damage. In addition, the diameter of the center hole of the cover is small, and the diameter of the hole of different types of couplings is generally between 17mm and 21mm, so non-standard tooling tools are difficult to adapt.

[0004] At present, the method generally adopted in the industry is to use columnar tools or crutches for prying. At the contact point between the tool and the cover, the force transmission will cause a certain degree of damage to the cover. Usually, insulating tape or rubber tube is wrapped around the surface of the prying tool to reduce the hardness of the contact point to protect the coupling from contact damage. In addition, when prying in this way, if the prying force is too large, the cover will also deform. Since the center hole of the cover is small, the design requirements for the expansion and contraction mechanism that can achieve uniform force are high, and conventional expansion and contraction mechanisms cannot be effectively applied.
