Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model provides a precise braking control device for a railway freight locomotive, belonging to the technical field of braking control for railway freight locomotives. Background Art
[0002] At present, when a railway freight locomotive applies air brakes, it is necessary to push the automatic brake valve handle forward to achieve braking. During operation, there will be an obvious step feeling when pushing the brake valve from the release position to the initial braking position. However, when the braking force is insufficient and additional decompression needs to be applied again, since there is no step setting in the common braking range of the brake valve handle, it is difficult to accurately control the additional decompression amount. If the additional decompression amount is too small, it will cause insufficient braking force. If the additional decompression amount is too large, it may cause longitudinal impulse of the train. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the structure of the current railway freight locomotive braking system to achieve the requirements of precise control. Utility Model Content
[0003] In order to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model aims to solve the technical problem of providing an improved structure of a precise braking control device for a railway freight locomotive.
[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: a precise braking control device for a railway freight locomotive, comprising a brake handle, the brake handle including a handle shaft, a push-pull rod provided along the radial direction of the handle shaft, an axially extending end of the handle shaft passing through a side wall and a cam rotary disk in sequence and then connected to the locomotive brake mechanism, the handle shaft and the cam rotary disk being fixedly connected so that the handle shaft and the cam rotary disk can rotate synchronously relative to the side wall;
[0005] The inner side surface of the side wall contacts the outer side surface of the cam turntable through a positioning column arranged at the edge position. When the cam turntable rotates, the positioning column can form a fan-shaped contact area on the outer side surface of the cam turntable. A plurality of limit grooves are also provided in the contact area of the cam turntable.
[0006] The positioning column is specifically installed in a hole reserved on the inner side of the side wall. A steel ball and a spring are installed inside the positioning column, so that the positioning column can move vertically on the inner side of the side wall.
[0007] Specifically, two positioning posts are provided, and the two positioning posts are respectively provided corresponding to the outer contact area and the inner contact area of the cam disc.
[0008] The limit slots are specifically the emergency brake slot, suppression slot, reconnection slot, maximum common brake slot, initial brake slot, operation slot, and the 20kPa additional decompression slot set in the outer contact area of the cam turntable.
[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the present invention connects the brake handle coaxially with a cam turntable pre-set with multiple limit grooves, and realizes precise limit control by arranging positioning columns and each limit groove on the inner side of the side wall. When in use, the driver can be given an obvious sense of the level when the additional pressure reduction is 20kPa without changing the driver's operating method, which is convenient for the driver to accurately control the additional pressure reduction when implementing additional pressure reduction under braking conditions, and avoid manually controlling the pressure reduction amount of the brake valve to be too small or too large; the changes made to the original cam turntable module by the present invention are very small, which is convenient for implementation and will not affect the driver's original operating method.

[0015] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the precise braking control device provided by the utility model is specifically installed in the air brake system of a heavy-load locomotive. It can realize precise control of the rotation amplitude of the brake valve handle to avoid applying too little or too much brake decompression, so that the handle can obtain a clear level sense when the additional decompression amount is 20kPa, which is convenient for the driver to accurately control the additional decompression amount when implementing additional decompression under braking conditions.
[0016] To achieve the above-mentioned functional effects, the present invention provides a precise braking control device for a railway freight locomotive, comprising a brake handle, the brake handle comprising a handle shaft 1, a push-pull rod 2 being provided along the radial direction of the handle shaft 1, the axially extending end of the handle shaft 1 passing through a side wall 3 and a cam turntable 4 in sequence, and then connected to the locomotive brake mechanism, the handle shaft 1 and the cam turntable 4 being fixedly connected so that the handle shaft 1 and the cam turntable 4 can rotate synchronously relative to the side wall 3;
[0017] The inner side surface of the side wall 3 contacts the outer side surface of the cam turntable 4 through the positioning column 31 set at the edge position. When the cam turntable 4 rotates, the positioning column 31 can form a fan-shaped contact area on the outer side surface of the cam turntable 4. A plurality of limit grooves 41 are also provided in the contact area of the cam turntable 4.
[0018] The positioning column 31 is specifically installed in a hole reserved on the inner side of the side wall 3 . A steel ball and a spring are installed inside the positioning column 31 so that the positioning column 31 can move vertically on the inner side of the side wall 3 .
[0019] Specifically, two positioning posts 31 are provided, and the two positioning posts are respectively provided corresponding to the outer contact area and the inner contact area of the cam disc 4 .
[0020] Each limit slot 41 is specifically an emergency brake slot, a suppression slot, a reconnection slot, a maximum common brake slot, an initial brake slot, an operation slot, and a 20kPa additional pressure reduction slot arranged in the outer contact area of the cam turntable 4, and the inner contact area of the cam turntable 4.
[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, in an embodiment of the present utility model, the control device is mainly composed of a brake handle, a side wall and its positioning column, and a cam turntable, wherein the side wall is a fixed component and is provided with a mounting hole. The brake handle and the cam turntable are mechanically connected through the mounting hole of the side wall for rigid fixation, and the two can rotate relative to the side wall to realize the rotation of the brake valve handle.
[0022] Further, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a plurality of fixed-angle limit grooves are provided at the edge of the cam turntable, and each limit groove cooperates with the positioning column provided in the side wall to realize the step sense of the brake handle rotating to the operating position, initial braking position, maximum common braking position, reconnection position, inhibition position, and emergency braking position; the positioning column body is a column with external threads, with steel balls and springs installed inside. When the handle is rotated to the limit position of the corresponding groove during use, the positioning column pops up and is stuck in the groove at the corresponding position, so that the driver can quickly and accurately switch to the corresponding brake decompression position when operating the push-pull rod, and accurately control the additional decompression amount of the brake valve.
[0023] Further, such as Figure 3As shown, the angle set between the cam turntable operating position and the initial braking position is 6°, and the angle set between the initial braking position and the maximum commonly used braking position is 30°. According to the calculation that the train pipe decompression at the initial braking position is 50kPa and the maximum commonly used braking position decompression is 170kPa, if 20kPa is used as the additional decompression target value, the corresponding turntable position should be at a position 5° different from the initial braking position; in order to achieve a sense of level when additional decompression braking is required due to insufficient braking force, and to facilitate the driver to accurately control the additional decompression amount, a groove is specifically added at a position 5° different from the initial braking position by the cam turntable, and a positioning column is provided on the side wall to cooperate with it.
[0024] Regarding the specific structure of the present invention, it should be noted that the connection relationship between the various component modules adopted in the present invention is definite and feasible. Except for special instructions in the embodiments, its specific connection relationship can bring corresponding technical effects and solve the technical problems raised by the present invention.
