TRAIN COUPLER, SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC COUPLING TRAINS, AND RELATED TRAIN
Abstract:
A train coupler includes a mechanical coupler configured to couple with another train coupler, a primary pneumatic circuit, which includes a main air distribution line adapted to be connected with and supply air into a pneumatic circuit of the other train coupler, via a first inlet/outlet, an electrical head connected to a first actuator configured to be pneumatically actuated and drive the electrical head to move between a retracted position and an extended position where it is electrically coupled with an electrical head of the another train coupler, and a secondary pneumatic circuit pneumatically connected to the primary pneumatic circuit and arranged to convey flows of air derived from the main air distribution line towards the first actuator and a second inlet/outlet.
