Simulator For Railroad Hot Wheel Detector
View pageUS Patent:
52920909, Mar 8, 1994
Filed:
Dec 2, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/984539
Inventors:
Donald C. Wetzel - Berea OH
Walter N. Arth - Middleburg Heights OH
Walter N. Arth - Middleburg Heights OH
Assignee:
Meg Trans Corp. - Berea OH
International Classification:
B61K 904
US Classification:
246169R
Abstract:
A simulator is provided for verifying the proper operation of railroad rolling stock hot wheel detectors. The simulator includes heaters mounted on trucks of a railroad car, between the wheels and within the profile of the thickness of the wheels. Shock mounts, spring mounts and safety cables are used. An electromagnet is mounted on the heater to trip a sensor to activate the detector and a sensor on the car is used to determine the ambient temperature. Each heater includes a heater temperature sensor and is maintained at a constant temperature above ambient to approximate the thermal radiation of a hot wheel. Each heater is adjusted to direct heat horizontally outwardly from the truck to permit a hot wheel detector adjacent to and outside of the rail to detect a hot wheel. The car has two trucks with one heater on each side of each truck. One heater on each side simulates a temperature approximately equal to a hot wheel.

54071542, Apr 18, 1995
Filed:
Jul 28, 1993
Appl. No.:
8/098641
Inventors:
Donald C. Wetzel - Berea OH
Walter N. Arth - Washington Court House OH
Walter N. Arth - Washington Court House OH
Assignee:
Meg Trans Corp - Brookyn Hts. OH
International Classification:
B61K 904
US Classification:
246169A
Abstract:
Heaters are used to simulate wheel bearings at specified temperatures. Two heaters are mounted on each side of a railroad test car. The heaters are mounted on the sprung carriage of the car to reduce vibration of the hardware and avoid interfering with wheel trucks on the car. Ambient temperature sensors are similarly mounted. Wire brushes are mounted below the heaters and sensors to activate magnetic wheel flange sensors. The heaters are controlled by a system which is integrated with a hot wheel simulator system.
