CENTRAL COUPLER APPLICABLE TO COLLISION ENERGY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND LOCOMOTIVE HAVING SAME

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of railway locomotives, and provides a central coupler applicable to a collision energy management system and a locomotive having same. The central coupler applicable to a collision energy management system comprises a coupler buffering device, a coupler box body and a follower plate base; the coupler buffering device comprises a buffer, the coupler box body is mounted on a chassis of the locomotive, the coupler buffering device is connected to the follower plate base, the follower plate base is connected to the coupler box body, and when an impact force borne by the coupler buffering device is greater than a connection force between the follower plate and the coupler box body, the follower plate base is separated from the coupler box body, and the coupler buffering device drives the follower plate base to move relative to the coupler box body. The collision resistance and safety of the locomotive can be improved by means of the coupler buffering device, t
