DESIGN OF AN ELECTRIC LOCOMOTIVE WITH A ROTATING FRAME
Abstract
The authors consider problems of reducing travel time and energy saving in the operation of rolling stock. The developed design makes it possible for an electric locomotive to move to an adjacent track and to move in the opposite direction on a parallel track to the point of formation. This saves time of locomotive stay on the track, the amount of electricity needed to go to a nearby station and back, and also minimizes the duration of overlapping of the section of the track for maintenance work, because after the completion of works an electric locomotive moves to the adjacent track and the section becomes open for traffic.
