Zusammenfassung: | The body of a railway vehicle is supported on both sides by air bellows mounted between the body and a pivotable truck. An air control valve having an actuating handle is connected between a source of air under pressure and a bellows. A lever connects each actuating lever with a point on the longitudinal side of a truck, the points on the truck being horizontally displaced with respect to each other as the truck pivots with respect to the vehicle body as the vehicle moves along a curved path. The pivotal movement of the truck causes movement of the lever which actuates the control valves to increase the pressure in the bellows on the outside of the curve and to decrease the pressure in the bellows on the inside of the curve to tilt the vehicle toward the inside of the curve. |
