An electromagnetic rail brake device of a rail vehicle having at least one brake magnet which has a magnet coil body and at least one magnetic core, and wherein the magnet coil body carries at least one magnet coil winding, and having an electric connector device, by way of which the at least one magnet coil winding is supplied with current, wherein the electric connector device has at least one pin-shaped electric connector body which is connected via a releasable electric connection to at least one current-conducting electric cable which is guided from the outside to the at least one pin-shaped connector body in relation to the brake magnet. The at least one pin-shaped electric connector body may be arranged on a free and outer surface of the magnet coil body or an element which is connected to the magnet coil body.

A magnetic rail brake device includes a brake magnet with a solenoid former supporting a solenoid. A horseshoe-shaped magnet core is disposed adjacent to the solenoid former. The horseshoe-shaped magnet core includes a yoke having cheeks that project away from the yoke. Pole shoes are formed at ends of the cheeks. The solenoid includes an upper part, with an upper height and an upper width, and a lower part, with a lower height and a lower width. The solenoid is disposed between the cheeks and engages vertically around the yoke. The upper height is less than the lower height, and the upper width is greater than the lower width. The upper and lower heights are measured parallel to a vertical center axis of the brake magnet, and the upper and lower widths are measured transversely with respect to the vertical center axis.
