Abstract

A railway wagon (100) comprising a load carrier (130), front and rear bogies (110, 120), wherein each bogie comprises a bogie platform (112, 122), which is rotatable, wherein the load carrier (130) is releasably connected to the respective bogie platforms, and laterally displaceable in relation to the 5 respective bogie platforms. The load carrier (130) having a front end (132) provided with a front connection portion (133), and a rear end (134) provided with a rear connection portion (135). The load carrier (130) comprises a first load carrying platform (150) with a longitudinal extension from the front end (132) to the rear end (134), arranged at a first height (H1) and having a first 10 width (W1). The load carrier further comprises a second load carrying platform (160) arranged at a second height (H2) which is higher than the first height (H1) and having a second width (W2) which is wider than the first width (W1). The second load carrying platform further comprises a first platform portion (161) with a longitudinal extension from the front end (132) to the rear end (134), and15 a second platform portion (162) with a longitudinal extension from the front end (132) to the rear end (134), and a lateral spacing (164) between the first platform portion (161) and the second platform portion (162) with a longitudinal extension from the front end (132) to the rear end (134).

Abstract

A railway wagon comprising a load carrier, and front and rear bogies, wherein each bogie comprises a platform, which is rotatably mounted. The load carrier is releasably connected to, and laterally displaceable in relation to, the platforms. The load carrier has a front end and a rear end and is provided, at each end, with a connection portion, and two support devices, which are laterally spaced, and which support the load carrier in a position where it is laterally displaced in relation to the platform. The support devices are vertically operable between an idle position and a support position, in which the support devices abut against the ground. Further, the railway wagon comprises a displacement device for laterally displacing the load carrier.

Abstract

A coupler for railway wagons, the coupler comprising an outer coupler part having a first end and a second end, and an inner coupler part having a first end and a second end. The outer coupler part comprises a head arranged at the first end of the outer coupler part for automatic coupling to a head of an adjacent railway wagon. The inner coupler part is arranged to be pivotally connected to a railway wagon to enable lateral pivoting of the coupler. The outer coupler part is longitudinally movably connected with the inner coupler part at an interconnection portion of the coupler, positioned at the second end of the outer coupler part and at the first end of the inner coupler part. Further, the coupler has a first resilient element arranged at the interconnection portion and attached to the outer coupling part and to the inner coupling part such as to provide a resilient longitudinal movement between the outer and inner coupling parts, and a second resilient element arranged to make the lateral pivoting resilient and to bias the head to a central position.

Abstract

A railway wagon (1) comprising a load carrier (2), and front and rear bogies (3, 4), wherein each bogie comprises a platform (5, 6), which is rotatably mounted. The load carrier is releasably connected to, and laterally displaceable in relation to, the platforms. The load carrier has a front end and a rear end (7, 8) and is provided, at each end, with a connection portion (15, 16), and two support devices (30, 31), which are laterally spaced, and which support the load carrier in a position where it is laterally displaced in relation to the platform. The support devices are vertically operable between an idle position and a support position, in which the support devices abut against the ground. Further, the railway wagon comprises a displacement device for laterally displacing the load carrier. The displacement device comprises a reciprocating launch device (23), which is arranged to reciprocate laterally of the platform, a launch device connection mechanism, for releasably connecting the connection portion with the launch device, and a platform connection mechanism (25) for releasably connecting the connection portion with the platform.

Abstract

The invention relates to a railway wagon comprising a load carrier (7) and front and rear bogies (8), each of the bogies being provided with railway track wheels and being electrically, hydraulically and/or pneumatically connected to the load carrier by means of one or more electric cables, hydraulic and/or pneumatic tubings (5).The load carrier is releasably connected to the respective bogies, and in a released state laterally displaceable in relation to the respective bogies by means of a displacement device. The load carrier has a front and a rear end and is at each end provided with a support device and a ramp (13), wherein the support device is adapted to support the load carrier on the ground in a position where it is displaced in relation to the bogie, whereas the ramp is along an inner edge pivotally connected to the end of the load carrier. The ramp is provided with a suspension device on the underside of the ramp including a guide arrangement (1) extending transverse in relation to a longitudinal axis of the load carrier, along which guide arrangement a slider (2) is displaceably movable, wherein the slider is provided with a holder (3) for holding of the one or more cables and/or tubings while allowing transverse movement of the cables and/or tubings together with the slider and holder along the guide arrangement.

Abstract

A support device for a laterally displaceable railway wagon. The support device (100) comprises: -a track device (102) including an endless track (104), and a body (106) carrying the endless track; and -a track device holder (108), which is pivotally connected with the body via a connection shaft (120) extending transversally through the body. The track device holder comprises opposite first and second side portions extending along the length of the track device, a first end portion connected with the first and second side portions at one end thereof, a second end portion connected with the side portions at the other end thereof, a first suspension portion included in said first end portion, and as second suspension portion included in said second end portion. The track device at least partly extends below the track device holder.
