AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The conveying lines of existing railway vehicles lack the function of accumulation and release, which causes the wheel pair to rotate when it stops moving forward, making the wheel pair unable to dense accumulation and release, and the structure is complex and the manufacturing cost is high.

Method used

A chain conveyor is designed to realize the operation of the bracket carrying wheel pair by resting the rim on the bracket wheel and using the walking wheel to walk on the track. When the wheel pair is blocked from running, the outer circle of the bracket wheel can roll against the outer circle of the wheel rim to realize the accumulation and release function.

Benefits of technology

The wheel set-up function of railway vehicles is realized, avoiding the rotation of the wheel set when it stops and moves forward, simplifying the structure and reducing manufacturing costs.

[0002] At present, the conveyor lines of railway wheelsets and bogies do not have the accumulation function. Even if a stopper is set in front of each wheelset, the wheelset can only stop on the continuously running conveyor chain, but it is impossible to accumulate the wheelsets one by one. Moreover, the wheelset will inevitably rotate when it stops moving forward, making some operations impossible to implement during this period of time. It can be seen that the main defects of traditional railway wheelset and bogie conveyor lines are: no accumulation function, complex structure, and high manufacturing cost. Summary of the invention

[0008] As a further solution of the present invention: the conveying chain 3 comprises a symmetrical chain 34, the outer circle of the supporting wheel 3C in the symmetrical chain 34 comprises a trapezoidal groove 3C2, and the wheel rim 1A rests on the trapezoidal groove 3C2.

[0009] As a further solution of the present invention: the supporting wheel 3C comprises a smooth wheel 3C3, and the smooth wheel 3C3 and the supporting wheel 3C with an inner boss 3C1 or a trapezoidal groove 3C2 are arranged at intervals in the conveying chain 3.
