Abstract (en)

[origin: WO8800543A1] A mechanical device for stabilizing rail vehicles is used to change the position of the superstructure in relation to at least one wheelset. At least one wheelset (9') is directly linked by a rod (1) to the superstructure, and the two control levers (3, 3') of a pair of wheels are operationally linked with each other as a four-bar linkage and to a C-shaped control frame (10') as a torque rod. This stabilizing device of the superstructure allows for increased speed in the curves and prevents the passengers from being affected in the curves by transversal accelerating forces beyond a certain threshold value.
