The Administrator reserves the right to assess a penalty of up to $100,000 for any violation where circumstances warrant. See 49 CFR part 209, appendix A. 2 This schedule uses section numbers from FRA’s Safety Appliance Defect Code, a restatement of the CFR text in a reorga- nized format. For convenience, and as an exception to FRA’s general policy, penalty citations will cite the defect code rather than the CFR. FRA reserves the right, should litigation become necessary, to substitute in its complaint the CFR and/or statutory citation in place of the defect code section cited in the penalty demand letter.

  • Assessing Steam Locomotive Dynamics and Running Safety by Computer Simulation
    TRANSPORT PROBLEMS 2015 PROBLEMY TRANSPORTU Volume 10 Special Edition steam locomotive; balancing; reciprocating; hammer blow; rolling stock and track interaction Dāvis BUŠS Institute of Transportation, Riga Technical University Indriķa iela 8a, Rīga, LV-1004, Latvia Corresponding author. E-mail: [email protected] ASSESSING STEAM LOCOMOTIVE DYNAMICS AND RUNNING SAFETY BY COMPUTER SIMULATION Summary. Steam locomotives are preserved on heritage railways and also occasionally used on mainline heritage trips, but since they are only partially balanced reciprocating piston engines, damage is made to the railway track by dynamic impact, also known as hammer blow. While causing a faster deterioration to the track on heritage railways, the steam locomotive may also cause deterioration to busy mainline tracks or tracks used by high speed trains. This raises the question whether heritage operations on mainline can be done safely and without influencing the operation of the railways. If the details of the dynamic interaction of the steam locomotive's components are examined with computerised calculations they show differences with the previous theories as the smaller components cannot be disregarded in some vibration modes. A particular narrow gauge steam locomotive Gr-319 was analyzed and it was found, that the locomotive exhibits large dynamic forces on the track, much larger than those given by design data, and the safety of the ride is impaired. Large unbalanced vibrations were found, affecting not only the fatigue resistance of the locomotive, but also influencing the crew and passengers in the train consist. Developed model and simulations were used to check several possible parameter variations of the locomotive, but the problems were found to be in the original design such that no serious improvements can be done in the space available for the running gear and therefore the running speed of the locomotive should be limited to reduce its impact upon the track.

II (May – June 2021), PP 48-51 www.iosrjournals.org A review paper on Drum brake Shubhendra Khapre1 Dr. Rajesh Metkar2 1Dept. of Mechanical Engg, GCOEA 2Prof. Dept. of Mechanical Engg, GCOEA Abstract: In the automobile, there is a most common and important factor is safety like, braking system, airbags, good suspension, good handling, and safe cornering, etc. from the all safety system the most important and critical system is a brake system. A brake is a mechanical device that inhibits motion. A drum brake is a brake that uses friction caused by a set of shoes or pads that press against a rotating drum-shaped part called a brake drum. In this paper, we have studied the brake shoe of motor vehicles. A brake shoe is the part of a braking system which carries the brake lining in the drum brakes used on automobile or brake block in train brakes and bicycle brakes. A brake shoe is also known as a device which can be slow down railroad cars.

Introduction We know about the braking system, there are few types of brakes like a drum brake, disc brake. The drum brake consists of backing plates, brake drum, wheel cylinder, brake pads, brake shoe, etc. The drum brake is used in various motor vehicles like passenger cars, lightweight trucks, most of the two-wheelers.

The eddy current brake has the advantage of being able to take a high current density compared to the other application because this brake is used for applying brakes to the rolling stock for a shorter amount of time. Also, this braking system has the merit of being able to take a high current density at low speed rather than at high speed, because the heat generated by the low speed operation is less than that of the high speed operation. This paper also presents a method of improving the output torque of the eddy current brake at low speed operation through a change of the winding as well as the basic design.

  • RED RAVEN, the LINKED-BOGIE PROTOTYPE Ara Mekhtarian, Joseph Horvath, C.T. Lin Department of Mechanical Engineering, California
    RED RAVEN, THE LINKED-BOGIE PROTOTYPE Ara Mekhtarian, Joseph Horvath, C.T. Lin Department of Mechanical Engineering, California State University, Northridge California, USA Abstract RedRAVEN is a pioneered autonomous robot utilizing the innovative Linked-Bogie dynamic frame, which minimizes platform tilt and movement, and improves traction while maintaining all the vehicle’s wheels in contact with uneven surfaces at all times. Its unique platform design makes the robot extremely maneuverable since it allows the vehicle’s horizontal center of gravity to line up with the center of its differential-drive axle. Where conventional differential-drive vehicles use one or more caster wheels either in front or in the rear of the driving axle to balance the vehicle’s platform, the Linked-Bogie design utilizes caster wheels both in the front and in the rear of the driving axle. Without using any springs or shock absorbers, the dynamic frame allows for compensation of uneven surfaces by allowing each wheel to move independently. The compact and lightweight ground vehicle also features a driving-wheel neutralizing mechanism, a rigid aluminum frame, and a translucent polycarbonate weatherproofing shell. INTRODUCTION 1. Horizontal Center of Gravity Red RAVEN, the grand award (HCG) winner of the 2011 Intelligent Ground Vehicle (IGV) Competition, is mechanically Unless a differential drive vehicle designed to navigate through an autonomous can balance the weight of its platform on the course fast and efficiently. The Cal State two driving wheels similar to a Segway, an Northridge IGV Team designed the vehicle additional and floating or caster wheel is with the innovative Linked-Bogie dynamic required to support the platform weight.

There are many tricks to removing stuck brake drums. Before you break something ASK!

They should be filed flat to prevent shoes from hanging up in deep grooves or better yet just replace the backing plate. Always lube Shoe Support Tabs with a thin layer of Synthetic Disc Brake Lubricant (or suitable lube) Be careful… do not use too much. Grease on brake shoes is BIG TROUBLE!
