ELASTIC WHEEL (OPTIONS) Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC B60B17/00 

FIELD: railway transport.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to railway transport. Elastic wheel with a hub and a stationary flange, with a binding band and a pressure flange is provided with a number of removable flanges and banding bands with irregularities in the form of protrusions and cavities between them with the placement of each protrusion in the cavity of the adjacent part. Protrusions and cavities are arranged concentrically and radially. Wheel with irregularities is made of three, five, seven or a number of parts with the location between the flanges and discs of elastic elements. Alternatively, a series of plate flanges and discs with similar irregularities are disposed between the hub flange, binding band and hub pressure flange and cantilevered out from uneven cutouts, ensuring the elasticity of the wheel. Fixing of all parts is made by tapered self-locking screws. On the outside, a plate fastening disk with cantilevered notches is screwed onto the hub pressure flange, which provides additional fixation of the screws.

EFFECT: technical result is the increase of reliability and service life of rail transport and tracks, reduction of vibration and noise level.
