Drive having axle-mounted transmission for high speeds
A bogie for locomotives is provided. Two wheelsets, each including a drive unit, are disposed in a bogie frame, wherein the wheelsets each include a wheelset shaft and two wheels. The drive unit comprises a motor unit and a transmission disposed to ride on an axle, and each motor unit is suspended at three points, namely at a main pivot point on the transverse beam of the bogie frame and two mounting points on a head beam of the bogie frame. Further, the motor unit is transversally elastically suspended; the transmission is mounted pivotally about the wheelset shaft but not displaceable along the wheelset shaft. The transmission is further connected to the motor unit by a transmission torque support, and the drive unit comprises a clutch by which the motor unit has a driving connection to the wheelset by the transmission.
1. A bogie for locomotives, comprising:
a bogie frame;
two wheelsets, each wheelset including a wheelset shaft, two wheels and a drive unit, the two wheelsets being disposed in the bogie frame,
wherein the drive unit includes a motor unit and an axle-mounted transmission,
the motor unit being suspended from three points, specifically from a main pivot point on the transverse beam of the bogie frame and from two mounting points on a head beam of the bogie frame,
the motor unit being suspended in a transversely elastic manner,
wherein the drive unit has a clutch by which the motor unit has a driving connection to the wheelset via the transmission, and
wherein the transmission is mounted rotatably about the wheelset shaft, the transmission being not displaceable along the wheelset shaft, and
wherein the clutch is configured to allow relative movement between the motor unit and the transmission.
2. The bogie as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the transmission is connected to the bogie frame via a transmission torque support.
3. The bogie as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the transversely elastic suspension of the motor unit is embodied by two pendulum-type connection pieces which are used to suspend the motor unit from the two mounting points on the head beam of the bogie frame.
4. The bogie as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the transmission torque support is embodied as a pendulum-type connection piece.
5. The bogie as claimed in claim 2 , wherein a damping element acting transversely relative to a longitudinal axis of the bogie is provided between the drive unit and the bogie frame.
6. The bogie as claimed in claim 2 , wherein a limiting stop device is arranged on the head beam and restricts the transverse movement of the motor unit relative to the longitudinal axis of the bogie frame.
7. The bogie as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the transmission is connected to the motor unit via a transmission torque support.
8. The bogie as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the transversely elastic suspension of the motor unit is embodied by two pendulum-type connection pieces which are used to suspend the motor unit from the two mounting points on the head beam of the bogie frame.
9. The bogie as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the point at which the transmission torque support is connected to the motor unit is arranged as closely as possible to the clutch.
10. The bogie as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the transmission torque support is embodied as a pendulum-type connection piece.
11. The bogie as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the transversely elastic suspension of the motor unit is embodied by two pendulum-type connection pieces which are used to suspend the motor unit from the two mounting points on the head beam of the bogie frame.
12. The bogie as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the point at which the transmission torque support is connected to the motor unit is arranged as closely as possible to the clutch.
13. The bogie as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the suspension of the motor unit from the head beam of the bogie frame is effected by a bracket, wherein a connection between the bracket and the mounting points is effected via an exchangeable bracket adapter.
14. The bogie as claimed in claim 13 , wherein two pairs of brackets are provided which are arranged adjacently to each other, each pair of brackets comprising an upper and a lower bracket.
15. The bogie as claimed in claim 14 , wherein bracket adapters are connected directly to the mounting points of the head beam of the bogie frame in a rigid manner.
16. The bogie as claimed in claim 14 , wherein bracket adapters are embodied such that a connection of the bracket adapters to the mounting point on the head beam of the bogie frame is effected by a pendulum-type connection piece.
17. The bogie as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the bracket adapter is connected directly to the mounting points on the head beam of the bogie frame in a rigid manner.
18. The bogie as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the bracket adapter is embodied such that a connection of the bracket adapter to the mounting point on the head beam of the bogie frame is effected by a pendulum-type connection piece.
19. The bogie as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a damping element acting transversely relative to a longitudinal axis of the bogie is provided between the drive unit and the bogie frame.
20. The bogie as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a limiting stop device is arranged on the head beam and restricts the transverse movement of the motor unit relative to the longitudinal axis of the bogie frame.
