Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to an online detection device for the end stroke of braking and axle temperature of railway freight cars, belonging to the field of train inspection technology. Background Technology
[0002] With the increase in the load capacity and train formation of freight cars on China's railways, the volume of freight car transport is also increasing year by year. The safe operation of freight cars is of paramount importance in railway transportation, making performance monitoring of freight car components essential. Currently, brake testing on freight cars involves installing pressure sensors on individual cars to detect changes in air pressure along several circuits to determine if the braking system is functioning properly. This method is inconvenient and prone to errors. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the technical problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides an online detection device for the end travel of the brakes and the axle temperature of railway freight cars, which is simple in structure, reasonable in design, easy to install, and convenient for monitoring the operating status of the train braking system.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is an online detection device for the braking end stroke and axle temperature of railway freight cars, including a mounting bracket for installation on the side frame of a train wheel. An inner temperature sensor, an outer temperature sensor, and a stroke sensor are installed on the mounting bracket. The inner temperature sensor is located outside the inner bearing of the train wheel, close to the outer ring of the bearing, and is used to detect the temperature of the inner bearing. The outer temperature sensor is located outside the outer bearing of the train wheel, close to the outer ring of the bearing, and is used to detect the temperature of the outer bearing. The stroke sensor is located outside the brake beam end axle and is aligned with the brake beam end axle, with the stroke sensor close to the brake beam end axle.
[0005] Preferably, the mounting bracket includes a fixing plate, a limiting plate, and a rectangular mounting cylinder. The rectangular mounting cylinder is mounted on one side of the fixing plate. A notch is provided in the middle of the rectangular mounting cylinder. The inner temperature sensor and the outer temperature sensor are respectively mounted on the rectangular mounting cylinder and located on both sides of the notch. A right-angle fixing plate is also mounted on the fixing plate. The right-angle fixing plate is perpendicular to the rectangular mounting cylinder. The stroke sensor is fixed on the right-angle fixing plate. The limiting plate is fixed on one side of the right-angle fixing plate. A limiting groove is formed between the limiting plate and the fixing plate.
[0006] Preferably, the mounting bracket is made entirely of stainless steel.
[0007] Preferably, the fixing plate is provided with fixing holes.
[0008] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following technical effects: The present invention has a simple structure and is easy to use. A stroke sensor and two temperature sensors are installed by mounting bracket. The extension rod contact of the stroke sensor contacts the end shaft of the brake beam to sense the change in the distance of the brake beam stroke in real time. The temperature sensors can detect the temperature change of the wheel bearing, and thus detect whether the entire braking system is working properly when the vehicle is braking and releasing.

The mounting bracket 1 is equipped with an inner temperature sensor 2, an outer temperature sensor 3, and a stroke sensor 4. The inner temperature sensor 2 is located outside the inner bearing of the train wheel, close to the outer ring of the bearing, and is used to detect the temperature of the inner bearing of the train wheel. The outer temperature sensor 3 is located outside the outer bearing of the train wheel, close to the outer ring of the bearing, and is used to detect the temperature of the outer bearing of the train wheel. The stroke sensor 4 is located outside the brake beam end axle and is in a straight line with the brake beam end axle, with the stroke sensor close to the brake beam end axle.
[0012] This utility model employs a mounting bracket 1 installed on the side frame of a train wheel. An inner temperature sensor 2, an outer temperature sensor 3, and a stroke sensor 4 are installed on the mounting bracket 1. The inner temperature sensor 2, the outer temperature sensor 3, and the stroke sensor 4 can detect the bearing temperature and the stroke changes of the brake beam end shaft, thereby clearly understanding whether the entire braking system is working properly when the vehicle is braking and releasing.

A notch 8 is provided in the middle of the rectangular mounting cylinder 7. The inner temperature sensor 2 and the outer temperature sensor 3 are respectively mounted on the rectangular mounting cylinder 7 and located on both sides of the notch 8. A right-angle fixing plate 9 is also mounted on the fixing plate 5. The right-angle fixing plate 9 is perpendicular to the rectangular mounting cylinder 7. The stroke sensor 4 is fixed on the right-angle fixing plate 9. The limiting plate 6 is fixed on one side of the right-angle fixing plate 9. A limiting groove 10 is formed between the limiting plate 6 and the fixing plate 5.
