摘要： A railroad gondola car has a hopper carried between two trucks. The hopper has convergent end and side slope sheets that feed a bottom discharge. The bottom discharge has a pair of longitudinal doors. The car has a very short draft installation that includes a removable coupler carrier bar, and the main shear plate has a removable draft gear installation cover. The rear draft stop extends longitudinally inboard past the truck center. The couple arrangement includes an AAR Type E shank with an AAR Type F coupler There is a machinery space above the end section shear plate. It is overhung by the slope sheet that is substantially unobstructed by any other primary structure. The pneumatic cylinder is mounted on an angle in this unobstructed machinery space, oriented longitudinally over the draft sill beneath the main drag link of the mechanical transmission, and above the main pivot of the driving input lever of the transmission. The main lever is bifurcated, and straddles the pneumatic cylinder. The lower portion of the side sheets lies laterally inboard of the stiffener web, while the upper portion lies laterally outboard of the stiffener web. The side slope sheet of the hopper meets the sidewall at the transition of the sidewall sheet from the inside-the-post to the outside-the-post condition.

摘要： A control valve assembly for a load carrying vehicle that includes a storage space and a dumping mechanism that is movable between an open position that allows access to the storage space and a closed position that inhibits access to the storage space. The control valve assembly includes a housing and a valve that is positioned within the housing and is movable between a first position, wherein the dumping mechanism is moved toward the open position, and a second position, wherein the dumping mechanism is moved toward the closed position. First, second, and third actuation systems are in communication with the valve and are operable to actuate the valve between the first position and the second position.

摘要： A hopper car discharge section may be wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. Outflow is controlled by closure members, at least one of which is movable. The closure members come together to a closed condition or position for retaining lading. When apart, in an open position or condition, lading may be discharged. A seal member or seal member assembly is mounted to one or both of the closure members. When open, the seal member or seal member assembly lies substantially flush with, or shy of, the slope of the surface of the closure member. When closed, the seal member may be self-energizing, in the sense that as lading is added the seal may tend to seal more tightly. The seal assembly may include a cantilevered spring that presents a land to the opposed closure member, and a fulcrum, over, or across, which the spring is cantilevered, such that pushing down on one end of the spring may tend to cause the other end to flex upward. The fulcrum may also be cantilevered outward from the slope sheet of the closure member to which the seal assembly is attached. The discharge section may be robustly reinforced to discourage deformation.

摘要： A railcar door operating mechanism with piston lock used for opening, closing and locking a railcar door. The railcar door operating mechanism may include a hydraulic piston, a piston lock, a lock drive, and a lock drive piston. To open a railcar door the lock drive piston extends and causes movement of the lock drive. The lock drive then engages the piston lock and moves the piston lock from a locked position to an unlocked position. Once the piston lock is in an unlocked position, the hydraulic piston is then retracted to open the railcar door. To close the railcar door, the hydraulic piston is again activated extending the hydraulic piston to close the railcar door. The lock drive piston may then retract and cause movement of the lock drive. The lock drive may again engage the piston lock and move the piston lock into a locked position.

摘要： The door operating system of the present invention can be applied to new railcar or retrofitted to existing railcar designs. The hopper car will have a pair of doors on opposed sides of the center sill which are connected through a door spreader. The pneumatic, individual door operating system is connected to the door spreader through an adjustable spreader fulcrum in which the sliding adjustment may add in a proper connection force or tension between the door operating system and the individual doors.

摘要： An actuating system for operating the doors of a railroad hopper car. The mechanism includes an air cylinder which is coupled to a first lever that is fixed on a shaft. The shaft is coupled to a second shaft through a pair of levers. Supplying air to the cylinder causes the first lever to rotate the shaft which causes the second shaft to rotate. The doors of the hopper are coupled to the two shafts, such that when the shafts rotate, the doors open from the hopper.

摘要： An actuating system for operating longitudinal doors of a railroad hopper car. The mechanism includes an operating member which is coupled to each end of the door set of the car by a shaft and a linkage which couples a power source to the operating member, where the operating members rotate to move the doors away from the hopper. Reversing the rotation of the operating members closes the door set of the hopper. The mechanism can be used in new car construction, and can also be retrofitted onto existing hopper cars.

摘要： A piston accumulator can be used for hydraulically actuating the discharge unit in non-automotive bulk commodity vehicles. The accumulator cylinder has a tappet which can be axially displaced within the cylinder. When a defined load pressure is reached in the oil chamber of the cylinder, the tappet can be displaced by a piston to actuate a control valve. The valve serves as shut-off device for the loading fluid stream flowing to the oil chamber and is positioned as a detachable module on the exterior face of cylinder cover in such a way that it can be actuated by the outer end of the tappet. The tappet is guided towards the outside by passing in a sealed manner through the cylinder cover.
