Patent

CA 2213761

A constant contact spring bearing for use with a railway car truck bolster is disclosed. Greater design flexibility and installation tolerances are available because a longer travel spring, with potentially lower spring load rate and stress rate, may be used. The present invention facilitates the establishment of loadings that may be expected to fall reliably within set-up tolerances from unit to unit. Instead of mounting the spring bearing on the surface of the truck bolster top member, the present invention provides a recess in the truck bolster to receive the spring, allowing for use of longer springs. With longer travel springs available for use, a spring may be selected with a lower load rate and a lower stress rate.

Plaque d'appui de ressort à contact constant pour traverse danseuse de bogie. La présente invention apporte une plus grande flexibilité en matière de conception et de tolérances d'installation puisqu'elle permet l'utilisation d'un ressort de course plus longue ayant potentiellement une capacité de charge et un niveau de sollicitation inférieurs. La présente invention permet également de déterminer plus facilement les charges, qui devraient se situer dans des tolérances de réglage d'une unité à l'autre. La plaque d'appui du ressort de la présente invention n'est pas montée sur la surface de l'élément supérieur de la traverse danseuse, mais dans une partie surbaissée destinée à recevoir le ressort, de sorte qu'il est possible d'utiliser des ressorts de course plus longue ayant une capacité de charge et un niveau de sollicitation inférieurs.
