Disclosed is a railway braking system including a control device having a valve with a body having a cavity and a slide having an internal chamber, supply notches and drainage notches each having an overall passage cross-section for a pressure medium having a shape exhibiting an apex, and being movably mounted in the cavity, between a supply position where the supply notch is opposite a supply groove of the body, and a drainage position where the drainage notch is opposite a drainage groove of the body; the device being configured to allow a substantially stable control configuration, wherein the pressure value of the medium is limited, and wherein the slide is positioned in the cavity such that a control notch of the slide is opposite a control groove of the body while the supply and drainage notches are respectively at a distance from the supply and drainage grooves.

Braking system for a railway vehicle

Disclosed is a brake system for a railway vehicle, including linings each having at least one positioning member for mechanically fastening the linings in a predetermined position on the system with respect to a disc of the vehicle and a bearing face for tightly gripping the disc under the action of an actuator of the system, and at least one return member for separating the linings from the disc in order to release it when the linings are freed from the action of the actuator; each lining has at least one fastening member formed on an edge, the return member has two opposite end lugs connected to one another by an elastic portion and each mechanically fastened with a the fastening member, and the system is configured such that the fastening members and the end lugs are situated at a distance from the at least one positioning member.

Railway brake system for a railway vehicle

Disclosed is a railway braking system including a braking device provided with a body, a single piston that can move with respect to the body to act on a brake linkage, and delimiting, together with the body, a pressure chamber supplied by a pressure medium source for placing the piston in a rest position where the linkage applies no force on a braking member of a railway vehicle, first and second seals housed between a first section of the piston and the body, and third and fourth seals housed between a second section of the piston and the body; the first and third seals being configured to form a primary sealing of the pressure chamber and the second and fourth seals being configured to form a secondary sealing of the pressure chamber.
