BRAKING METHOD AND DEVICE FOR IMPLEMENTATION THEREOF Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC B61H11/02 B61H13/00 B60T11/10 B60T8/32 

FIELD: transport.

SUBSTANCE: braking method involves subsequent supply of control command of actuators of the train carriages for emergency braking, lowering of brake shoes on rails, subsequent detachment of coupling devices from carriage frames, control of damping force with throttle device of carriages till the train fully stops. After the reason which caused an emergency stop of the train is eliminated, the train is moved backwards as per the locomotive driver's command by coupling the carriages of the train, and the train starts according to the chosen route. Device includes two-rail brake shoes, two-sided adjustable damping device, coupling devices and devices for setting the emergency braking algorithm of the train, which have self-rolling bobbins with conducting ropes wound on them and on the ends of which there are inter-carriage contact elements, nipple devices for developing uninterrupted pneumatic pipeline from the locomotive to the last carriage of the train. Self-rolling bobbins are installed on movable platforms spring-loaded with return springs and having the formers supplying the commands of subsequent braking of the train carriages, starting from the last but one carriage and further to the train head end till it fully stops.

EFFECT: fail-safe movement of trains.
