Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2020239458A1] The invention relates to a regenerative energy absorption device for damping forces that occur during operation of a track-guided vehicle, in particular tensile, impact and/or torsional forces, wherein: the energy absorption device has at least one spring apparatus having an elastomer body (1), which is designed so as to elastically deform, at least in some regions, when forces are introduced into the energy absorption device; the elastomer body (1), at least in some regions, is made of an electrically conductive material (2), the specific electrical resistance of which varies under tensile and/or compressive loading; and the energy absorption device is assigned a resistance sensor apparatus (3) for detecting the electrical conductivity or the electrical resistance of the electrically conductive material (2).
