The invention relates to a control mechanism () configured to equip a rail system and including a casing () from which a control rod () projects, configured to be mechanically and securely connected to a control cable () actuatable at a distance from or in proximity to the casing, a plate () mechanically connected to the casing and from which the control rod projects, and a locking/unlocking device () positioned in a recess () provided in the plate and having a stable position, the control mechanism being configured so that, when the control cable is mechanically connected to the control rod, the locking/unlocking device is elastically moved away from its stable position to allow the partial introduction of the control cable in the plate as far as a position in which the control cable is mechanically and securely connected to the control rod.

Control mechanism for a rail system, rail system provided with such a mechanism and rail vehicle provided with such a system

The invention relates to a railway braking system for a rail vehicle. The system includes a brake rigging, a service and/or parking brake designed to act on at least one braking member of the vehicle via the brake rigging (which is provided with at least one device having at least one lining support and at least one lining that is mechanically attached to the at least one lining support), and at least one force transmission link. The force transmission link has a first end mechanically attached to a support of the vehicle and an opposite second end mechanically attached to the at least one lining support. The at least one lining support comprises a fastening leg that includes a housing and a mounting member accommodated in the housing, and the second end of the at least one force transmission link is rotatably mounted in the mounting member.

Braking system comprising brake rigging, and vehicle equipped with such a braking system

The invention concerns a rail vehicle braking system comprising a service brake having a movable piston () which with a body () of the system delimits a service brake chamber () supplied by a first source, a piston rod () disposed in that chamber and fastened to a second side () of the piston turned towards that chamber, and a parking brake () disposed in said body and comprising a blocking device () disposed in that chamber and movable to act on said rod, and a movable actuating device () which is configured to be electrically actuated; said blocking and actuating devices being configured to immobilize/unblock said rod so as to block/unblock said piston in a position.

Rail vehicle braking system and braking method for a rail vehicle comprising such a system

A rail vehicle braking system includes a service brake having a movable piston () which with a body () of the system delimits a service brake chamber () supplied by a first source, a piston rod () disposed in that chamber and fastened to a second side () of the piston turned towards that chamber, and a parking brake () disposed in the body and including a blocking device () disposed in that chamber and movable to act on the rod, and a movable actuating device () which with the body delimits a parking brake pressure chamber () supplied by a second source; the blocking and actuating devices being configured to immobilize/unblock the rod so as to block/unblock the piston in a position.
