Braking systems of trains

When connecting passenger trains of the first train operator holds it to the secondary brake pressure in the brake cylinder engine 2.5-3.0 kgf/cm2. Machinist second train of 50-100 m to the tail of the first train car slows down to 3-5 km / h, before reaching a 10-15 m, stops the train, checks the condition of the locomotive pulling faces and tail carriage, agrees to the driver of the first train possible connecting trains at a speed of not more than 3 km / h train pulls up to the second clutch to the first. Fireman hose connects the brake line of both trains and opens valves end of the first locomotive, and then the car.

The driver translates the combined second locomotive crane in the position of the double thrust, and the crane operator's hand - in the VI position. The connection is correct train operator checks the second locomotive.

After connecting the second locomotive train driver informs the radio the first locomotive engine driver, which performs a full service braking and releases the automatic brakes. This is all automatic brakes of the train safely released and transferred to the charging pressure of the head of the locomotive. The driver controls the second locomotive of the normal cross brake line to reduce and increase the pressure in it, as well as the work of the locomotive brake. Management performs automatic brakes of the locomotive engineer first procedure established for twin passenger trains.

Perform emergency braking when a further movement of the train is in danger. The first performs emergency braking driver, noticing the danger, and immediately transmits the command of the locomotive engine driver of the Other.

Control rod locomotive engineer second engineer teams to produce the brain of the locomotive. Defusing the brake line is the command shutdown immediate traction.

To improve the smoothness of the service brake brake line to be discharged after the compression train or locomotive traction mode with a smooth head off the traction mode after the cessation of discharge of the brake line. In case of opening the stop valve at low speed (less than 20 km / h) during the acceleration mode of propulsion trains the brain to improve the smoothness of the locomotive brake or turn it off gradually, avoiding excessive growth of current, full stop off at the time of the train.
