Research on matching of 102-type coupler with secondary suspension parameters of heavy-haul locomotives
The secondary suspension parameters of locomotives have a significant influence on the stability of heavy-haul couplers under compression. This paper aimed to explore the reasonable matching between 102-type couplers and the secondary suspension parameters of heavy-haul locomotives. A detailed two-locomotive dynamics model was established by using SIMPACK software
incorporating a 102-type coupler and HXD1 eight-axle heavy-haul locomotives. The mechanical characteristics of the coupler and the safety performance of the heavy-haul locomotives were analyzed under different calculation conditions. Moreover
the influence of secondary suspension parameters on locomotive safety was compared at different coupler free angles and under varying longitudinal forces. The results indicate that at low longitudinal pressure
the coupler angle stabilizes at a free angle
and the lateral force on the locomotive's wheel axles increases with an increasing free angle of the coupler and a higher lateral stiffness of the secondary suspension. This relationship was independent of the longitudinal force of the coupler. As the longitudinal coupler pressure increases
resulting in deflection to overcome the pre-compression load of the restoration block
the coupler angle further increases. At this stage
an appropriate increase in the lateral stiffness of the secondary suspension helped to maintain coupler stability along with just a minimal impact. In order to secure safe train operation in braking conditions
it is recommended to control coupler free angles within 6°
and set the lateral stiffness of the secondary system on a single side of bogies within the range of 0.45-0.60 kN/mm. Additionally
the recommended secondary lateral stop clearance includes a 35 mm free clearance plus a 5 mm elastic clearance.
