Traction bar connects bogie with loco body an transmits traction and braking forces from bogie to loco under frame. It is provided with two identical pivot points, one attached to the locomotive under frame and other attached to end transom of bogie.
Product Functions and Effects
1.Transmit tractive and braking forces: The main function of the traction rod is to transmit the tractive force generated by the traction motor to the bogie during train acceleration, and transmit the braking force during train braking to assist in deceleration or stopping the train.
2.Minimize the relative movement between the bogie and the car body: The traction rod can restrict the relative movement between the bogie and the car body, thereby reducing the lateral and longitudinal vibrations of the train during operation, and enhancing the stability and ride comfort of the train.
3.Enhance the safety and reliability of train operation: The traction rod is designed and manufactured to withstand significant tractive and braking forces, ensuring the safe operation of the train under various conditions. Its high reliability and long service life reduce the maintenance cost and downtime of the train.
