Analysis of the Influence of Pipe Joint Type on the Design of Bogie Pipeline
Pipe joints are widely used in the bogie foundation braking system,which are mainly categorized into ferrule type and compression type according to the different sealing types.The pre-selected type of joints in the piping design,due to the different internal structure of the joints,have an impact on the piping direction,fastening method,application and maintenance,pipe diameter and length dimensions.The article analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of the two types of joints in use through several common piping problems and design cases,and gives specific optimization solutions to avoid the phenomena of air leakage and joint dislodgement in the application,reduce maintenance costs as well as maximize the service throughout the life cycle.
