Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a pressure monitoring device for the air braking system of railway freight cars, belonging to the field of railway freight car 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. Emergency braking during operation can cause accidents involving freight cars; therefore, monitoring the pressure conditions of freight cars is essential. Currently, railway freight cars typically undergo braking tests at stations to determine the overall leakage situation and the health status of valves 120 and 120-1, thereby identifying any abnormalities in the freight car's air braking system and ensuring safe operation. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the technical problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a railway freight car air brake system pressure monitoring device with a reasonable structure, convenient installation, and the ability to detect the operating status of valves 120 and 120-1.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is a pressure monitoring device for the air braking system of railway freight cars, including a detection block and a mounting cover. The detection block is installed between a 120-type valve and a main valve. The top of the detection block is equipped with a mounting cover. The detection block is provided with detection holes for the relief air cylinder, main pipe, brake cylinder, and auxiliary air cylinder corresponding to the relief air cylinder, main pipe, brake cylinder, and auxiliary air cylinder on the 120-type valve. The top of the detection block is provided with a first mounting groove, a second mounting groove, a third mounting groove, and a fourth mounting groove. The first mounting groove, the second mounting groove, the third mounting groove, and the fourth mounting groove are respectively connected to the detection holes for the relief air cylinder, main pipe, brake cylinder, and auxiliary air cylinder through air guide channels. The first mounting groove, the second mounting groove, the third mounting groove, and the fourth mounting groove are respectively equipped with an acceleration relief air cylinder sensor, a main pipe sensor, a brake cylinder sensor, and an auxiliary air cylinder sensor. The acceleration relief air cylinder sensor, the main pipe sensor, the brake cylinder sensor, and the auxiliary air cylinder sensor are located inside the mounting cover.
[0005] Preferably, the mounting cover is fixed to the detection block by a plurality of screws.
[0006] Preferably, the mounting cover is provided with a quick-connect cable interface.
[0007] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following technical effects: The present invention can detect the health status of valves 120 and 120-1. By installing the detection block between the 120 valve and the main valve, and using the detection hole on the detection block that matches the 120 valve, the air pressure of the relief cylinder, main pipe, brake cylinder, and auxiliary air cylinder can be detected in real time. Thus, the operation status of the air braking system of railway freight cars can be connected in real time, and the detection is convenient and reliable. Attached Figure Description
