Description

Field of the Invention

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of rail traffic, and particularly relates to a bogie.

Background of the Invention

[0002] At present, the running speed of a heavy-duty freight electric locomotive is generally below 120km/h, and its driving device (including a traction motor, a gear box and the like) is generally installed in an axle suspension manner. As shown in Fig. 1, one end of the traction motor 3 is rigidly fixed with an axle suspension box 300 via a hexagon bolt, and the axle suspension bearing box 300 is suspended on an axle 5 through two sets of axle suspension bearings; and the other end of the traction motor 3 is elastically suspended on a middle cross beam of a framework through a set of suspension rods. A driven gear 21 is assembled with a gear hub 400 by bolts, the gear hub 400 is installed on the axle 5 in an interference fit manner and drives a wheel pair to rotate together while moving, so as to drive the vehicle to advance. This manner results in a large load on the axle, which is acceptable for a low-speed freight electric locomotive, but for a high-speed freight electric locomotive, when the running speed reaches 120km/h or more, its transverse force is greatly increased, and if the driving device still adopts the axle suspension arrangement manner, the transverse stability of the locomotive cannot be effectively controlled during running.

[0003] The current rapid passenger electric locomotive uses a traction motor elastic frame suspension structure, as shown in Fig. 2. A hollow shaft of a six-link hollow shaft is sleeved on the axle 5, the six-link of the six-link hollow shaft is fixedly connected with the wheel pair, and a suspension cross beam is sleeved on an outer surface of the hollow shaft. In a longitudinal direction, one end of the suspension cross beam 8 is connected with the traction motor 3, and the traction motor 3 is suspended on a middle cross beam 11 of the framework 1 through a suspension rod 9. A gear box 2 is arranged on the same side of the suspension cross beam and the traction motor, an output shaft of the traction motor 3 is connected with a driving gear in the gear box 2, and one side of the gear box body is fixedly connected with a side face of the suspension cross beam 8 by bolts. A suspension point is arranged at the other end of the suspension cross beam 8, another suspension point is arranged at one end of the gear box body away from the traction motor 3, and the two suspension points are elastically suspended on a framework end beam 12 through the suspension rod.

[0004] The gear box 2 is installed on the gear hub 400 through a bearing and forms an integral unit with the traction motor 3.

[0005] It can be seen from the above structural description that the gear box bears a part of force. For the fast heavy-duty electric locomotive, if the gear box adopts the above load bearing structure, the heavy load will increase the complexity of the structural stress of the gear box, resulting in easier damage to the gear box.

[0006] In addition, as the running speed of the locomotive is improved, the air pressure distribution in the gear box changes more uncertainly, and since an oil lubrication manner is adopted, the oil leakage risk of the gear box is greatly increased.

[0007] With respect to the definition of direction vocabularies mentioned in this case, in the field of railway vehicles, there are usually three directions recognized by technicians: Vertical direction: a direction vertical to a rail surface.

[0008] Longitudinal direction: a direction along a rail.

[0009] Transverse direction: a direction vertical to the rail in the horizontal plane.

Summary of the Invention

[0010] In view of the above problems, the present invention aims at providing a bogie that can ensure the transverse stability, avoid stress on a gear box, prevent the damage to the gear box, is reasonable in structural stress and is suitable for fast heavy-duty freight electric locomotives with running speeds higher than 120km/h.

[0011] The technical solution for solving the problems of the present invention is as follows: a bogie, including a framework, a gear box, a traction motor, a wheel pair, an axle, a six-link hollow shaft, and a suspension cross beam, the wheel pair and the axle are arranged at the bottom of the framework, a hollow shaft of the six-link hollow shaft is sleeved on the axle, the suspension cross beam includes a beam body, a through groove transversely provided in the beam body, and a bearing seat, which is transversely arranged at a groove opening of the through groove in an overhang manner and which is fixedly connected to the beam body, the groove opening is located at one end of the through groove;
one end, with the through groove, of the beam body is fixedly connected to the traction motor in a longitudinal direction, so as to form a closed cavity after connection which is in sleeve connection with an outer surface of the hollow shaft; the other end of the traction motor is suspended on a middle cross beam of the framework; one end, without the through groove, of the beam body is hooked with a framework end beam; and a driven gear of the gear box is in sleeve connection with the bearing seat via a bearing, and a driving gear of the gear box is connected with an output shaft of the traction motor. The above measures make it possible for high-speed running of the heavy-duty freight electric locomotive, the traditional shaft suspension type structure is replaced by a six-link hollow shaft frame suspension type structure for mounting the driving device, which avoids excessive weight bearing of the axle, so that the transverse force during the high-speed running of the heavy-duty freight electric locomotive is reduced, and the transverse stability during running is ensured. At the same time, a new suspension cross beam structure is adopted, and the suspension position is changed, so that the gear box becomes a non-load structure, and the failure probability of the gear box is greatly reduced.

[0012] Further, in a transverse direction, the six-link at one end of the six-link hollow shaft close to the gear box is connected with an end face of the driven gear through a transmission pin, and the six-link at the other end of the six-link hollow shaft is connected with the wheel pair through a transmission pin.

[0013] The traditional transmission mode is shown in Fig. 2, one end of the six-link is connected with the gear hub of the driven gear via bolts, and the other end of the six-link is connected with the wheel pair to transmit force through the gear hub. While in the present solution, the driven gear is directly connected with the six-link through the transmission pin, so that the transmission of force is more direct, the middle part is reduced, the stress is better, and the failure rate is lower.

[0014] Further, one end, without the through groove, of the beam body is provided with a symmetrical pair of transverse backstop mounting seats, a transverse backstop is installed on each transverse backstop mounting seat, and the top of the transverse backstop is fixedly connected with the framework end beam.

[0015] Due to the structural change of the suspension cross beam, from the perspective of structural layout and stress angle, the layout of structural components on the corresponding bogies shall be adjusted accordingly.

[0016] Preferably, the gear box is lubricated with grease to avoid the problem of oil leakage of the driving device, and the sealing structure of the gear box can also be simplified. Preferably, the bearing seat is integrally formed with the beam body.

[0017] The significant effects of the present invention are as follows:

1. By means of elastic frame suspension of the driving device, the problem of transverse instability of the heavy-duty freight electric locomotive during high-speed traveling is solved.

2. The gear box uses a non-load structure so as to solve the problems of the gear box having a complicated structure and being subject to a relatively heavy load.

3. The gear box is lubricated with grease to solve the problem of oil leakage of the gear box and to ensure the safe running of the locomotive.
