wagon with side-sills Explanation: 1133 brancard m, longeron m (châssis) – Längsträger m, Langträger, Rahmenwange f (Wagenunterbau) – longitudinal girder; sole-bar, side-sill (underframe) 1134 brancard m, longrine m (caisse) – Längsträger m, Langträger, Langschwelle f (Wagenkasten) – longitudinal member; balk; side-sill (body framework) 10102 wagon m [plat] surbaissée; ~ à plate-forme surbaissée – Tiefladewagen m – well-wagon ; low-loader wagon ; depressed-center flat [car] Am (UIC, Lexique général des termes ferroviaires) A well car, also known as a double-stack car or stack car (also well wagon), is a type of railroad car specially designed to carry intermodal containers (shipping containers) used in intermodal freight transport. The "well" is a depressed section which sits close to the rails between the wheel trucks of the car, allowing a container to be carried lower than on a traditional flatcar. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well_car The principal object of the invention is to provide in combination with a railway freight car underframe having a center sill and a side sill and cross members extending between the side sill and the center sill, https://patents.google.com/patent/US2752865 Figures: https://pdfpiw.uspto.gov/.piw?Docid=02752865&homeurl=http://... Referring now to Fig. 2, the side sill 21 is in one piece and is preferably made of aluminum or aluminum alloy formed by the extrusion' process. The side sill has a relatively deep body portion 3l which furnishes sufficient resistance to vertical deflection and is provided with longitudinal insets 32 and 33 adjacent to the top and bottom edges of the sill. https://patents.google.com/patent/US2035113A/en Figures: https://pdfpiw.uspto.gov/.piw?Docid=02035113&homeurl=http://... Fig. 5.5: 53’ Double-stack container wagon, as used in North America (Source: Greenbrier/WTR Guide to rail cars) : Technical data container stack railcar Length over couplers 23,387 mm Distance between bogie centers 19.080 mm Well size16,15 m * 31,2 m Maximum width 3.250 mm Height, rail to container surface (empty wagon) 306 mm Height, rail to centerline coupler 876 mm Height, maximum 6.147 mm Top of side sill to top of rail (empty wagon) 1.520 mm Tare weight 22,9 t Loading capacity 76,9 t : Weight reduction through centre beam design European wagons have usually a frame-shaped design in order to conduct the tensions originated on the buffers and the screw couplers that circulate along the external rim of the wagon body. Conversely, North American freight cars are usually constructed over a central sill that works basically at compression or traction effort, apart of the flexion effort originated by load, which obviously is present in European wagons too. http://www.ferrmed.com/sites/default/files/2018-03/FERRMED_W... |
