Title: Dominik Katzler: Inventor of a Magnetic Track Brake
Introduction
Dominik Katzler is an inventor based in Vienna, Austria. His patent work concerns railway braking technology, specifically a magnetic track brake designed to detect when the brake magnet is raised from the rail.
Latest Patents
Katzler is associated with 1 patent: “Magnetic Track Brake Having a High-Position Detecting Means Installed in or on the Actuation Cylinder.” The invention describes a pressure-medium-actuated cylinder that moves a magnet apparatus between a low position on the rail, a raised high position, and intermediate positions. When the magnet is lowered, a magnetic short circuit with the rail generates an attractive force. A detecting apparatus produces a signal when the magnet reaches the high position.
Career Highlights
Katzler’s listed patent is assigned to Knorr-Bremse Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung, a company whose work includes railway braking systems. The invention addresses the detection of a raised magnetic brake, providing a signal when the apparatus reaches its high position.
Collaborations
Katzler’s listed coworkers include Michael Kassan and Volker Joergl. The available information identifies them as coworkers but does not specify their individual roles in the patent.
Conclusion
Dominik Katzler’s patent contribution focuses on magnetic track braking and high-position detection, linking his inventive work to railway safety technology.
