Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of train coupler technology, specifically to fastening fixtures for the head coupler and intermediate coupler of high-speed trains. Background Technology

[0002] In the daily maintenance and repair of high-speed trains, the tightness of the head coupler and intermediate couplers is crucial. As key components connecting train carriages, the tightness of the couplers directly affects the safety and stability of train operation. However, existing coupler tightening operations have many problems. Traditional tightening methods mainly rely on manual operation using tools such as wrenches, which is labor-intensive and inefficient. Furthermore, manual operation makes it difficult to ensure that the tightening torque of each coupler is completely consistent, easily leading to under-tightening or over-tightening. Under-tightening may cause the couplers to loosen during train operation, leading to serious safety accidents such as decoupling; over-tightening may damage coupler components and shorten the coupler's service life. In addition, in some complex coupler structures and confined working spaces, manual operation is extremely difficult, further increasing the difficulty of maintenance work. With the continuous increase in the operating speed and mileage of high-speed trains, higher requirements are placed on the precision and efficiency of coupler tightening operations. At the same time, the high operating speed, numerous carriages, and large impact forces place higher demands on the shock absorption performance of the couplers.
