DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0015] A bogie region integrated, lightweight skirt structure is designed and developed. The new bogie skirt structure 7 is connected to the chassis side beam 8 by fasteners 11. When the skirt structure 7 is processed, the skirt inner wall ribs 6 of the skirt inner wall 5 are retained to improve and strengthen the overall stiffness of the skirt.
[0016] According to the characteristics of aerodynamic loads in vehicle operation and the connection structure limitations, a more targeted aluminum profile rib layout is designed. Figure 1 Middle: The dotted area is the bogie skirt area, which covers the outer contour of the car body to both sides of the bogie to achieve air diversion and drag reduction.
[0017] Figure 3 Middle: The dotted frame is the area where the ribs are retained.
[0018] Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6Middle: The connecting rib 1 serves as the main load-bearing interface of the bogie skirt structure, the supporting oblique rib 2 effectively improves the side aerodynamic load bearing capacity, the reinforcing rib 3 improves the overall mode of the skirt, the guide outer wall 4 follows the body contour to achieve aesthetic and guide effects, the skirt inner wall 5 improves the overall strength and mode of the skirt, the skirt installation avoidance hole 9 is located on the supporting oblique rib 2 for the torque wrench to apply the bolt torque, the rib area 10 is removed from the skirt inner wall 5, and the skirt inner wall rib 6 is retained. When cutting, the original rib root length of 9mm is retained to improve the stiffness of the skirt, and the right angles between the skirt inner wall 5 and the guide outer wall 6 and the reinforcing rib 3 are processed with rounded corners to avoid stress concentration.
[0019] Compared with the original bogie skirt plate, the weight is reduced by 48%, the cost is reduced by 30%, and the modal is increased to 69.9Hz. The stainless steel mounting seat of the original skirt plate has been cancelled and replaced with integrated ribs to achieve "weight reduction and cost reduction". The connecting bolts of the original skirt plate mounting seat have been cancelled and replaced with integrated ribs to reduce the number of connecting bolts and reduce the risk factor of product loosening. A non-welded structure is adopted to eliminate the influence of the welding heat affected zone and increase the strength by 50%.
