Determination of forces in the elements of the brake rigging of bogies of freight cars

The article presents the results of studies the purpose of which was solving the problem of deceleration of abnormal wear of brake pads in freight cars of Ukrzaliznytsia JSC. In the studies, the design schemes of brake rigging during braking were considered theoretically. Particular attention was paid to the determination of force loads acting in the rods of the rigging and the contact area of the brake pads with the rolling surfaces of the wheels during braking. Design analysis was performed to determine rational solutions from the point of view of determined force load of the rigging elements of the bogies during braking, in particular, taking into account the action of harmful torque caused by the movement of the bogie on inequalities “track joints”. Based on the conducted studies, it was decided to create a 2D generalized model diagram to determine reliable information on the operation of triangle brake rigging.
