[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the side frame structure includes: a side frame body 10, a first guide frame 21, a second guide frame 22, a third guide frame 23, a fourth guide frame 24, a first gasket structure 30, and a second gasket structure 40. The first guide frame 21 and the second guide frame 22 are respectively disposed at both ends of the side frame body 10. The third guide frame 23 and the fourth guide frame 24 are both connected to the side frame body 10, and are located between the first guide frame 21 and the second guide frame 22. The first guide frame 21 and the third guide frame 23 are arranged adjacent to each other, and the second guide frame 22 and the fourth guide frame 24 are arranged adjacent to each other. The first gasket structure 30 is connected to the first guide frame 21 through a first connecting structure. The second gasket structure 40 is connected to the third guide frame 23 through a second connecting structure. The first gasket structure 30 and the second gasket structure 40 are arranged correspondingly.
[0028] In this embodiment, the first guide frame 21, the second guide frame 22, the third guide frame 23, and the fourth guide frame 24 are all mounted on the side frame body 10. The first guide frame 21 and the second guide frame 22 are located at both ends of the side frame body 10, and the third guide frame 23 and the fourth guide frame 24 are located between the first guide frame 21 and the second guide frame 22. The first gasket structure 30 is connected to the first guide frame 21 via a first connecting structure, and the second gasket structure 40 is connected to the third guide frame 23 via a second connecting structure. Through this arrangement, the first gasket structure 30 and the second gasket structure 40 can be polished, thus ensuring the accuracy between the first guide frame 21 and the third guide frame 23, thereby improving the accuracy of the side frame structure. Therefore, the technical solution of this embodiment effectively solves the problem of poor accuracy of the side frame in related technologies.
[0029] The technical solution of this embodiment sets adjustable first shim structure 30 and second shim structure 40 at key locations of the side frame structure. Subsequent machining corrects dimensional deviations caused by welding deformation and assembly gaps. The first shim structure 30 and second shim structure 40 can absorb and compensate for deformation during the welding process, ensuring that the final dimensions fall within the specified tolerance range. This effectively improves the dimensional accuracy of the side frame structure, thereby guaranteeing the safety and stability of vehicle operation.
[0030] Specifically, in this embodiment, gaskets are provided on both the second guide frame 22 and the fourth guide frame 24.
[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the first gasket structure 30 includes a first gasket member 31 and a second gasket member 32, which are spaced apart along the width of the side frame body 10. This arrangement effectively reduces the use of gaskets and ensures accuracy. Furthermore, by providing the first gasket member 31 and the second gasket member 32 on both sides of the first guide frame 21, the thickness adjustment of the first gasket member 31 and the second gasket member 32 on both sides balances welding deformation, ensuring the accuracy of the distance between the first guide frame 21 and the third guide frame 23.
[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, a portion of the structure of the first shim 31 is connected to the surface of the first guide frame 21 facing the third guide frame 23, and the remaining portion of the first shim 31 is connected to the first side of the first guide frame 21. A portion of the structure of the second shim 32 is connected to the surface of the first guide frame 21 facing the third guide frame 23, and the remaining portion of the second shim 32 is connected to the second side of the first guide frame 21. This arrangement ensures the positional stability of the first shim 31 and the second shim 32. Furthermore, by connecting a portion of the structure of the first shim 31 and the second shim 32 to the surface of the first guide frame 21, and the remaining portion to the side of the first guide frame 21, a stable support structure can be formed. Simultaneously, it facilitates the adjustment of the shim thickness through machining to compensate for welding deformation. This improves the stability and adjustment accuracy of the first shim structure 30, ensures the accuracy of the key dimensions of the side frame structure, and enhances the vehicle's operating performance and safety.
[0033] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the first connection structure includes a solder structure, a fastener, or a rivet, and the second connection structure includes a solder structure, a fastener, or a rivet. This configuration improves the connection stability between the first gasket structure 30 and the second gasket structure 40.
[0034] Specifically, the first gasket structure 30 and the second gasket structure 40 are securely fixed to the first guide frame 21 facing the third guide frame 23 using welding, fasteners, or rivets. These connection methods also facilitate subsequent machining and adjustment. This ensures the stability of the gasket structure during assembly, simplifies the gasket adjustment process, and improves production efficiency.
[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, a spring mounting clearance portion 50 is provided in the middle of the side frame body 10. The side frame structure also includes a third shim structure 61 and a fourth shim structure 62. Both the third shim structure 61 and the fourth shim structure 62 are disposed on the side frame body 10 and located within the spring mounting clearance portion 50, with the third shim structure 61 and the fourth shim structure 62 being correspondingly disposed. By providing the third shim structure 61 and the fourth shim structure 62 in the spring mounting clearance portion 50, the dimensional deviation of the spring mounting clearance portion 50 caused by welding deformation can be effectively compensated, ensuring the spring damping performance and vehicle dynamic performance. This further improves the accuracy of the spring mounting position, ensuring the stability and comfort of the vehicle during operation.
[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the spring mounting clearance part 50 includes a clearance hole 51, which penetrates the side frame body 10 along its thickness direction. The side frame structure also includes a spring support 71 and a square frame member 72. The square frame member 72 covers the spring support 71, and the clearance hole 51 is located between the square frame member 72 and the spring support 71. The third gasket structure 61 and the fourth gasket structure 62 are both disposed on the square frame member 72. The clearance hole 51 provides space for the third gasket structure 61 and the fourth gasket structure 62 between the spring support 71 and the square frame member 72, facilitating the adjustment of the thickness of the third gasket structure 61 and the fourth gasket structure 62 to compensate for welding deformation.
[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the third gasket structure 61 is connected to the frame member 72 via a third connecting structure, and / or the fourth gasket structure 62 is connected to the frame member 72 via a fourth connecting structure. The third and fourth connecting structures securely fix the third gasket structure 61 and the fourth gasket structure 62 to the frame member 72, and these connection methods also facilitate subsequent machining adjustments. This ensures the stability of the third gasket structure 61 and the fourth gasket structure 62 during assembly, simplifies the adjustment process of the third gasket structure 61 and the fourth gasket structure 62, and improves production efficiency.
[0038] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, the side frame structure further includes a fifth gasket structure 81, which is connected to the side frame body 10 via a fifth connecting structure and is located between the first guide frame 21 and the third guide frame 23. The side frame structure also includes a sixth gasket structure 82, which is connected to the side frame body 10 via a sixth connecting structure and is located between the second guide frame 22 and the fourth guide frame 24. The fifth gasket structure 81 and the sixth gasket structure 82 can effectively compensate for dimensional deviations between the side frame body 10 and the spring support 71 caused by welding deformation.
[0039] Specifically, the distance D1 from the spring support 71 surface to the top surface of the guide frame has a tolerance of -3mm to +2mm. Excessive deviation in this tolerance will affect the distance from the bogie's center plate surface to the rail surface, thus affecting the vehicle's coupler height and coupling. To eliminate the effects of assembly deviations and welding deformation of the welded side frame, a fifth shim structure 81 and a sixth shim structure 82 are installed on the bottom surface of the side frame structure. After the side frame structure is assembled, the fifth shim structure 81 and the sixth shim structure 82 are machined to ensure the accuracy of this critical dimension. The square frame component 72 is a U-shaped folding plate with circumferential welding. Welding deformation is difficult to control, and if the dimensional accuracy here exceeds the tolerance, it will affect the spring damping and thus the vehicle's dynamic performance. The tolerance of the square frame component 72 dimension D2 is generally -1mm to +3mm. To ensure this accuracy, a third shim structure 61 and a fourth shim structure 62 are installed on the left and right sides of the square frame component 72. After the assembly of all components of the side frame structure, the third shim structure 61 and the fourth shim structure 62 are machined to ensure accuracy. The positions between the first guide frame 21 and the third guide frame 23, as well as between the second guide frame 22 and the fourth guide frame 24, are critical dimensional surfaces for mating with the load-bearing saddle. Dimensional deviations at these points can affect the vehicle's curve-passing performance and its critical speed for high-speed straight-line slalom. The distance D3 between the first guide frame 21 and the third guide frame 23 has a tolerance range of 0mm to +1mm, and the lateral distance tolerance ranges from -1mm to +1mm. To ensure the longitudinal and lateral dimensional accuracy between the first guide frame 21 and the third guide frame 23, a first shim structure 30 and a second shim structure 40 are respectively installed between them. After the side frame assembly is completed, the first shim structure 30 and the second shim structure 40 are machined to ensure the required accuracy.
[0040] The distance tolerance between the second guide frame 22 and the fourth guide frame 24 is 0mm to +1mm, and the lateral distance D4 tolerance is -1mm to +1mm.
[0041] According to a second aspect of this application, a bogie is provided. The bogie of this embodiment includes a side frame structure, which is the side frame structure described above. The aforementioned side frame structure ensures accuracy, thereby ensuring vehicle dynamic performance. Therefore, the bogie with the aforementioned side frame structure also possesses the aforementioned advantages.
[0042] According to a third aspect of this application, a railway vehicle is provided, including a bogie, wherein the bogie is the aforementioned bogie. The aforementioned bogie ensures accuracy, thereby ensuring the vehicle's dynamic performance. Therefore, the railway vehicle having the aforementioned bogie also possesses the aforementioned advantages.
