4 COUPLERS

4.1 General

4.1.1 Couplers provide energy absorption capabilities in the event of a collision.

The energy absorption capacity of the couplers is an integral part of the

overall crash energy management system and is designed to remain an

effective component for collision speeds up to 55 km/h. There are two

different types of couplers installed on the sets:

a. Auto Coupler located at both ends of the Set

b. Semi Permanent Coupler located between the cars.

4.1.2 The automatic and semi-permanent couplers incorporate both

regenerative and non regenerative energy absorbing devices in the form

of a gas-hydraulic buffer with up to 250 kJ of energy absorption capacity

and a deformation tube with up to 750 kJ of energy absorption capacity.

4.2 Auto Couplers

4.2.1 The Set is fitted with a Type 10 compatible automatic coupler at each

end. The automatic coupler is complete with mechanical and pneumatic

head, including an uncoupling cylinder, main reservoir pipe (MRP) and

brake pipe (BP). The Set is able to couple mechanically and

pneumatically, but not electrically, with. The automatic coupler is

compatible with mechanical and pneumatic connections on Millennium,

Tangara, Outer Suburban Carriages, Explorer and Endeavour trains, and

via a coupler adapter with hoses for older rolling stock with AAR type

couplers. The automatic coupler consists of the following subassemblies:

a. Coupler head

b. Uncouple device

c. Air pipe connection w/o valve for Brake Pipe

d. Air pipe connection for main reservoir pipe and uncouple pipe

e. Coupler shank with gas-hydraulic buffer and friction spring

f. Bearing bracket with integrated overload protection

g. Muff coupling

h. Earth wire

Page: 28

Figure 10 Auto Coupler

4.2.2 Auto Coupler Operation

4.2.2.1 The AUTO Coupler enables automatic coupling of other trains with a

Scharfenberg Type coupler. Coupling of two train sets is achieved without

any manual intervention by driving one set up to a second set. Automatic

coupling is possible both under horizontal and vertical misalignment. The

coupler allows coupled trains to negotiate vertical and horizontal curves and

rotational movements. Mechanical coupling is automatic, based on the

spring-loaded coupling gear as described below. Uncoupling relies on

mechanical action.

Figure 11 Auto Coupler Location

Page: 29

4.3 Semi Permanent Coupler

4.3.1 The semi-permanent couplers are asymmetrical. Temporary support chains

for the semi-permanent half-bar couplers provide self-support in the event of

the cars being coupled or uncoupled.

4.3.2 The Semi Automatic Coupler consists of the following subassemblies:

a. Buff- and draft gear with overload protection device

b. Coupler shank with gas-hydraulic buffer

c. Bearing bracket

d. Coupler shank with deformation tube

e. Gangway support

f. Muff coupler

g. Earth wire

4.3.3 Two Semi Permanent Coupler halves are designed to ensure a permanent

connection of the cars.

4.3.4 Semi Permanent Couplers Operation

4.3.4.1 When in operation, two halves form one semi permanent coupler and need

not be separated except for emergencies or maintenance purposes. The

coupler halves are connected by muff couplings thus ensuring a rigid, slack-

free and safe connection. The coupler allows coupled trains to negotiate

vertical and horizontal curves and allows rotational movements. The coupler

draft gear ensures cushioning of operational loads in both buff and draft

conditions. Separation of the coupler halves is done manually.

4.3.4.2 The semi permanent coupler provides a gangway support plate. When

uncoupled, it may be necessary to keep the coupler in horizontal position by

means of an additional support device. The Semi Permanent Couplers are of

non-symmetric design. One half carries the gangway support, contains a

gas-hydraulic buffer and is attached to a bearing bracket integrated in the

overload protection device with rear mounted deformation tube. The mating

half contains a conventional deformation tube and is connected to a bearing

bracket that fits the whole pattern of the overload protection assembly.

generates PWM train signals for the basic instructions to the traction and

brake control system and the level of power or deceleration.

6.11.2 The Master Controller is located at the left hand end of the desk so that the

foot space under the desk is open on the right hand side.

6.11.3 The Master Controller provides electrical signals to control the traction

direction and level of acceleration during motoring and retardation during

braking. A pneumatic regulating valve provides automatic brake pipe

control for the shadowing brake. Two pneumatic poppet valves provide

control for the emergency brake and brake pipe isolation.

6.11.4 The Master Controller includes the following components:

a. The Butterfly key switch

Page: 50

b. The reverser handle

a. Emergency Brake (EM)*

b. Maximum Brake/Isolate (MAX)*

c. Minimum Brake (MIN)*

d. OFF *

e. Minimum Power (MIN)

f. Maximum Power (MAX)

NOTE:

Positions marked (*) have detents requiring low effort to overcome.

Mechanical stops are provided at the extreme positions of powering

and braking.

6.11.8.2 The Power/Brake Control Handle provides a continuously variable effort

demand between minimum and maximum power and a continuously

variable effort demand between minimum and maximum brake.

6.11.8.3 When the Reverser Handle is in FOR or REV positions, the handgrip must

be twisted anticlockwise 20º (or the OEP depressed) to suppress the

Operator Enable System.

6.11.8.4 The limit between Maximum Brake (MAX) and Emergency Brake (EM)

positions is indicated by a hard detent, preventing unwanted movement into

the EM position.

6.12 Guard Station

In the stabled state, the Set is not in use, the park brake is deployed, all

external doors are isolated, the lights are turned off, and the train is not

connected to the overhead wire.

Generally, sub-systems within each Car do not operate in this state, with

the exception of equipment clocks, train marker lights, cab door controls,

and cab interior lighting controls. The Set will require two minutes to

transition from a prepared (no Crew) state to stabled to allow the sub-

systems on board to effect an orderly shutdown. With the train stabled, the

auxiliary power sub-system will be able to provide power for changing the

state of the Set to the presentation state.

For approximately 20 minutes after switching the train into the stabled

state, the external step lights will remain illuminated to allow for Crew to

walk alongside of the Set in dark conditions and adequate internal lighting

will remain illuminated to enable a passenger, driver or guard to exit from a

Set.

For approximately 60 minutes after switching the train into the stabled

state, eTIS will be able to exchange data with the Maintenance Facility for

the purpose of:

Video, equipment status or other train information file transfer off the
