Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of stopping devices, and in particular to a linkage stopping mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Trains face unique challenges when running on curves. Due to centrifugal force, the train body tends to shift laterally, which increases the risk of mechanical collision between the train body and the track.

[0003] To avoid the above risks, existing technologies often employ auxiliary mechanical restraint devices, such as retractable friction blocks or hydraulic brake arms at key locations on the bogie or car body, which are activated during cornering to provide rigid braking. While this approach improves cornering safety, it has significant drawbacks. The braking mechanism's response relies on external commands or preset position sensors, and the unlocking action is prone to lag, resulting in the train remaining mechanically restrained after exiting the curve, increasing running resistance and component wear.

Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Example 1:

[0024] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a linkage stop mechanism includes a base plate 1, on which two horizontally parallel rolling linear guides 6 and an upper base plate 5 are provided. The lower end of the upper base plate 5 is slidably connected to one of the rolling linear guides 6. The upper end of the upper base plate 5 is provided with a first stop shaft 11. A ball linear guide 7 is provided between the upper base plate 5 and the first stop shaft 11. The other rolling linear guide 6 is slidably connected to two second stop shafts 12 and a third stop shaft 13. The third stop shaft 13 is elastically connected between the two second stop shafts 12. The third shaft connecting plate, the first stop shaft 11 and the second stop shaft 12 are connected by several connecting rods. The connecting rods include a first connecting rod 2, a second connecting rod 3 and a third connecting rod 4, which are sequentially sleeved on the first stop shaft 11 from top to bottom.

[0025] The lower ends of the first stop shaft 11, the second stop shaft 12, and the third stop shaft 13 are provided with shaft mounting plates, which are used to install and fix the first stop shaft 11, the second stop shaft 12, and the third stop shaft 13.

[0026] In practical applications, a slider 14 is provided between the first stop shaft 11 and the ball linear guide 7.

[0027] In practical applications, a slider 14 is provided between the second stop shaft 12 and the rolling linear guide 6.

[0028] In practical applications, a slider 14 is provided between the third stop shaft 13 and the rolling linear guide 6.

[0029] In practical applications, the second stop shaft 12 and the third stop shaft 13 are connected by a tension spring 10. The two tension springs 10 have the same elastic force, achieving force balance among the first link 2, the second link 3, and the third link 4.

[0030] In practical applications, push blocks 8 are provided on both sides of the upper base plate 5. The upper base plate 5 is positioned by the push blocks 8.

[0031] In practical applications, the base plate 1 has a groove on the side near the third stop shaft 13, and a stop block 9 is provided in the groove. The stop block 9 is used for limiting the movement.

[0032] In practical applications, two-thirds of the stop block 9 is inside the groove.

[0033] In practical applications, one end of the first link 2, the second link 3 and the third link 4 is sleeved on the first stop shaft 11, the other end of the first link 2 is sleeved on the third stop shaft 13, the other end of the second link 3 is sleeved on one of the second stop shafts 12, and the other end of the third link 4 is sleeved on the other second stop shaft 12.

[0034] The second link 3 and the third link 4 are of the same length. This achieves force balance among the first link 2, the second link 3, and the third link 4.

[0035] In use, since the second link 3 and the third link 4 are of the same length, the second stop shaft 12 and the third stop shaft 13 are connected by a tension spring 10, and the tension of the two tension springs 10 is the same. The first link 2, the second link 3 and the third link 4 are in a stopped state (the three are in force balance and cannot be pulled). When it is necessary to unlock, the first link 2 is moved laterally to create an offset, which disrupts the force balance of the three and thus achieves the stopped state.

[0036] Example 2:

[0037] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a linkage stop mechanism includes a base plate 1, on which two horizontally parallel rolling linear guides 6 and an upper base plate 5 are provided. The lower end of the upper base plate 5 is slidably connected to one of the rolling linear guides 6. The upper end of the upper base plate 5 is provided with a first stop shaft 11. A ball linear guide 7 is provided between the upper base plate 5 and the first stop shaft 11. The other rolling linear guide 6 is slidably connected to two second stop shafts 12 and a third stop shaft 13. The third stop shaft 13 is elastically connected between the two second stop shafts 12. The third shaft connecting plate, the first stop shaft 11 and the second stop shaft 12 are connected by several connecting rods. The connecting rods include a first connecting rod 2, a second connecting rod 3 and a third connecting rod 4, which are sequentially sleeved on the first stop shaft 11 from top to bottom. The base plate 1 has a groove on the side near the third stop shaft 13. A stop block 9 is provided in the groove. The stop block 9 has a hole on the side near the third stop shaft 13, so that the third stop shaft 13 can move left and right to unlock.

[0038] The preferred rolling linear guide 6 is the THK RSX-M miniature rolling linear guide 6.

[0039] The preferred ball linear guide 7 is the MGW7-C miniature ball linear guide 7.

[0040] The lower ends of the first stop shaft 11, the second stop shaft 12, and the third stop shaft 13 are provided with shaft mounting plates, which are used to install and fix the first stop shaft 11, the second stop shaft 12, and the third stop shaft 13.

[0041] In practical applications, a slider 14 is provided between the first stop shaft 11 and the ball linear guide 7.

[0042] In practical applications, a slider 14 is provided between the second stop shaft 12 and the rolling linear guide 6.

[0043] In practical applications, a slider 14 is provided between the third stop shaft 13 and the rolling linear guide 6.

[0044] In practical applications, the second stop shaft 12 and the third stop shaft 13 are connected by a tension spring 10. The two tension springs 10 have the same elastic force, achieving force balance among the first link 2, the second link 3, and the third link 4.

[0045] In practical applications, push blocks 8 are provided on both sides of the upper base plate 5. The upper base plate 5 is positioned by the push blocks 8.

[0046] In practical applications, two-thirds of the stop block 9 is inside the groove.

[0047] In practical applications, one end of the first link 2, the second link 3 and the third link 4 is sleeved on the first stop shaft 11, the other end of the first link 2 is sleeved on the third stop shaft 13, the other end of the second link 3 is sleeved on one of the second stop shafts 12, and the other end of the third link 4 is sleeved on the other second stop shaft 12.

[0048] The second link 3 and the third link 4 are of the same length. This achieves force balance among the first link 2, the second link 3, and the third link 4.

[0049] In use, since the second link 3 and the third link 4 are of the same length, and the second stop shaft 12 and the third stop shaft 13 are connected by a tension spring 10, and the tension of the two tension springs 10 is the same, the first link 2, the second link 3 and the third link 4 are in a stopped state (the three are in force balance and cannot be pulled). When it is necessary to unlock, the first link 2 is moved laterally to create an offset, which disrupts the force balance of the three, thereby achieving the stopped state.

[0050] The above are merely specific embodiments of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
