RAILWAY VEHICLE CONTROL DEVICE Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC B60T13/66 

FIELD: transport.

SUBSTANCE: antiskid device (1) comprises electronic antiskid control unit (8) and transducers (10) arranged on every wheel (12) fitted on axle (14) of truck (4, 6) to identify rpm of axle or wheel at given moment. Microprocessor of electronic antiskid control unit (8) computes actual speed of rolling stock or train to reduce air pressure in braking cylinder by brakes control device via electrically-driven air control antiskid valves (16). Axles (14) run in wheel pair bearings (18) of appropriate truck (4). Transducer (10) is fitted on every bearing (18) of wheel pair axle (14) to measure axle rpm at given moment, temperature of wheel pair bearing (18) at given moment and at least its longitudinal acceleration.

EFFECT: higher reliability, perfected design at lower costs.
