Assembly with a bearing bracket and a coupler rod or a connection rod; car of a multi-car vehicle and method for transmitting pushing forces applied to a coupler rod or connection rod to a bearing bracket

Abstract

A vehicle coupling assembly includes a bearing bracket, a rod, a pin and an abutment element. The bearing bracket includes compressible elements, a connection member intermediate the compressible elements, and a rear plate rearward of the connection member. The rod has an end wall, a first side of which is adjacent to one of the compressible elements. The pin extends through the compressible elements, a connection member hole defined in the bearing bracket, and an end wall hole of the rod. A pin support surface at a first pin end faces a first side of the connection member, one of the compressible elements being between the pin support surface and the second side of the connection member. The abutment element is at a second pin end, and abuts a second side of the end wall of the rod.
