Description

In the present invention, with regard to the rail brake for a monorail railcar on poles, brake pads are applied, pressed against the rail by turning the handle.

In FIG. 1, 2 and 3 depict a car equipped with the proposed brake, respectively front, side and top; FIG. 4 and 5 depict a side view of the proposed brake in two different positions at which braking occurs.

The monorail carriage consists of two rigid frames 1, resting on two bogies 2, located on the same rail, with frames 1 being connected between each other by longitudinal frames 3 and 4 and 5. the help of a vertical axis 9 rotating in the upper frame of the frame with a horizontal axis 10 threaded through it, around which the carriage 2 rotates, having the possibility of occupying an inclined position relative to the horizontal axis of the car, which is important for uneven paths, for example, at the joints when the car is moving on a rope instead of a rail and when going from a rail to a rope.

when, instead of conventional bridges with intermediate supports, they would like to use only a rope, a cable.

The proposed brake consists of a cross member 11 rotating in a vertical plane on the hinge 12 and bearing. brake pad 13; At the end of the cross member 11, a hinge 14 with a handle 15 is fixed, the lower cross member 16 of which rests on two vertical springs 17 and is located in the vertical cuts of two fixed guides 18 having rollers on top. In the free state (Fig. 2), the cross member 16, pressed upwards by the springs 17, is in a horizontal position, and the brake shoe 13 is raised above the rail. When the handle 15 is rotated to one side or the other (Figs. 4 and 5), the cross member 16, respectively, is lowered by one of its ends, the hinge 14, the cross member P and the brake shoe 13, which is pressed against the rail, are carried away. To prevent the hinge 14 from moving sideways when braking the carriage, on both sides of the latter, two squares 19 are attached to the frame 3, which guide the hinge 14.

The subject of the patent.

Rail brake for a monorail railcar on poles, characterized by the fact that the cross member 11 carrying the brake shoe 13 and is located between the trolleys 2-2

the carriage, is attached at one end to the frame 3 by means of a hinge 12 and is provided at the other end with a handle 15 pivotally fastened to it, the lower crossbar 16 of which, sliding in the fixed guides 18-18, is under the influence of springs 17-17 which are pushing it up.
