ADVANTAGES OF ELECTRO-PNEUMATIC BRAKE OF FREIGHT TRAINS
Abstract
A scheme of electro-pneumatic brakes for freight trains is offered, its operating principles, advantages and disadvantages of the design are described. The comment that is given by the authors reveals the mechanisms of inhibitory processes (braking, overlapping, release action) and management features, existing functional dependencies in the current complex of devices. Regulatory «duties› are highlighted, which are implemented with a digital decoder installed on each car, electro-pneumatic add-on and main line for information transmission by means of digital signals.
