Estimating the term…
The present invention relates to an elastic wheel for railway vehicles, formed by a tread (1) and a wheel center (2), defining a housing for the insertion of an elastomer that is compressed by a retaining ring (3) which is attached to the wheel center (2) by means of attachment screws (4), and in which the elastomer is formed by a plurality of V-shaped elastic blocks (5), having two oblique walls belonging to the wheel center (2) and to the retaining ring (3), respectively, forming an angle of between 48° and 52° with respect to the axis (R) of the wheel, and in which the oblique walls end in respective inclined sections on which the vertices of the V-shaped elastic blocks (5) are supported, said inclined sections forming an angle of between 2° and 10° with respect to the axis (R) of the wheel.
An elastic wheel for railway vehicles, comprising a tread and a wheel center, defining a housing for the insertion of an elastomer that is compressed by a retaining ring which is attached to the wheel center by means of attachment screws, and in which the elastomer is formed by a plurality of V-shaped elastic blocks wherein the housing defined between the tread, the wheel center and the retaining ring, in which the elastic blocks are compressed, has two oblique walls belonging to the wheel center and to the retaining ring, respectively, forming an angle (α) of between 48° and 52° with respect to the axis (R) of the wheel, and in that the oblique walls end in respective inclined sections on which the vertices of the V-shaped elastic blocks are supported, said inclined sections forming an angle (β) of between 2° and 10° with respect to the axis (R) of the wheel.
