Railway Side Dump Wagon Railroad Tipper Cart for Ore, Coal, Steel Slag

1. Application

KF60 side dump wagon, is one of the special railway vehicles combining unloading equipment and railway wagon structure. This railway tipper wagon is widely applied to transport heavy density bulk goods like ore, steel slags and building wastes, and etc.
The dump wagon is equipped with tilting devices to discharge the goods. It has the features of quick loading and unloading and easy operation. The side dump wagon is with active low side walls. When unloading, the tilting air cylinders will push and tilting the carriages to 45° and the side wall will be with the same level of floor. Then the goods will be unloaded further away from the railway.
We are able to produce series of pay loads side dump wagons with different railway gauges according to customers’ different requirements.

2. Main structures

The side dump wagon is made of all steel riveted welding structure, and the whole wagon is composed of chassis, carriage, tilting cylinders, tilting pipelines, doors leaf suppression, air braking device, coupler buffer devices, and bogies.

• Chassis

The chassis adopts a fully welded steel structure, consisting of end beams, middle beams, and sleeper beams. The end beam is formed by pressing an 8MM sheet metal; The middle beam is composed of two H-beams, upper and lower cover plates, and partitions to form a box shaped fish belly structure. The main structure consists of the middle beam, end beam, and sleeper beam. There are tilting cylinder brackets, square supports, human supports, and other accessories for installing brake and tilting pipelines welded on both sides of the chassis beam.

• Carriage

The carriage is composed of a carriage frame, two side doors, and two end walls. The carriage frame is welded together with end beams, middle beams, side beams, crossbeams, and longitudinal beams. The end beams are pressed structures, the middle beams are I-beams, and the longitudinal beams are channel steels. The side door consists of side door hinges, side door panels, and side pillars. The end wall is composed of end columns, corner columns, eaves beams on the end wall, and end wall panels.

• Tilting device

The tilting device mainly consists of tilting pipeline system, tilting cylinders, door leaf suppression and other parts.

• Tilting pipeline system

The tilting pipeline system consists of an air storage cylinder and various valves. This system is the operating system for tilting and unloading the carriage. By operating the valves, compressed air enters the tilting cylinders to lift the carriage for tilting and unloading.

• Tilting cylinders

The tilting cylinder adopts a two-stage piston structure, consisting of inner and outer pistons, piston rod tilting cylinder jacket, top iron, etc. The cast iron inner and outer pistons are sealed with rubber cups and pressure rings.

• Door leaf suppression

Door leaf suppression is composed of suppression elbows, suppression springs, rollers, etc. It is a follow-up mechanism that controls the opening and closing of side doors, directly determining the vehicle's tilting ability.

• Air brake device

• Hand brake machine

• Coupler & buffer

• Bogie

The bogie adopts K6 type cast steel three piece wagon bogie with a 23.5t axle load. The bolster and side frame are made of B-grade steel with a wide guide frame structure for the side. There is a cross support device between the two side frames. The bolster spring is of two-level rigidity.
