Chevron type primary wheelset suspension by the rubber springs used in the bogie of the new railway track ballast distributing and profiling machine RPB-01
RPB-01, the new railway track ballast distributing and profiling machine are produced by the Kaluga Track Machines and Hydraulic Drives Plant (part of the Sinara Group) in Russia. This machine distributes the crashed stone (future track ballast) to form perfect railway track profile.
The bogie suspension system of the RPB-01 is consisted of primary wheelset Chevron type suspension by the rubber spring; the support of the carbody and guidance traction by the bogie is realised by the flexicoil type secondary suspension throught the coil springs which can be deflected into vertical and horizontal directions according to flexicoil principle. Also hydraulic dampers are instaled.
