DRIVEN CHASSIS FOR RAIL VEHICLES IN PARTICULAR BOGIES FOR LOW-FLOOR VEHICLES

摘要

The invention relates to a driven chassis (2) for rail vehicles (3), in particular, bogies for low-floor vehicles, comprising at least two wheels (4, 5, 6, 7), arranged one behind the other on each vehicle longitudinal side, driven by a drive unit (8, 9), each wheel being individually mounted to the chassis in particular, the body or bogie (67) by means of bearings and each drive unit comprises at least one drive motor (10, 11), at least indirectly connected to the wheel by means of an angular gear (14.1, 14.2, 15.1, 15.2) and an elastic coupling (24.1, 24.2, 25.1, 25.2). The invention is characterised in that the elastic coupling has a single plane coupling embodiment, whereby the connection between the angular gear and the wheel has no further coupling plane.
