Yongji, New Impetus To Electric Locomotive Traction Motor R & D

   Yongji City, Shanxi Province is located in Yongji Electric Factory, North Car Group, the only professional development of electric drives manufacturers, but also the country's largest electric locomotive traction transmission design and manufacturing base. To rely on independent innovation, the factory has developed with China's speed, heavy diesel locomotive ZD106 and ZD109 two series traction motor, which is the main type of Railway diesel locomotive traction motor. Self-developed side by side with the United States motorcycle ride on the snowy plateau "Heaven Road" on the Qinghai-Tibet locomotive motor, and created a new impetus to China's railway traction equipment, miracle.

 

At present, the plant already has an annual output of various types of electric drive unit 1000 sets an annual assembly of all types of AC and DC industrial and mining electric locomotive 70, a variety of large-capacity power electronic devices 130,000 capacity. China has five major speed rail diesel offers more than 96%% 78%% of electrical and electronic control devices.

Innovation requires a strong R & D investment as a guarantee. In recent years, Yongji Electric Factory technology development costs will be included in the annual financial budget, technology development costs represent the proportion of sales revenue growth with sales increasing year by year; now they have established and perfected the system of enterprise intellectual property and patent work, incentive mechanism, The declaration of the number of patent and technical staff performance evaluation be combined so that the number of patent applications has risen every year, the factory has already accumulated 145 patents, with 108 granted patents, is in Shanxi Province currently has the most patents enterprises by the state of knowledge Property awarded the "second batch of national enterprises and patent advanced unit."

 

They independently developed the Qinghai-Tibet up to 3680 kilowatts locomotive traction power, the maximum speed of 100 km, is currently the single most powerful heavy-duty diesel freight, compared with the previous cargo host, the traction power of large models, information and safety coefficient high, with a locomotive monitor and resistor braking, stand-alone 5,000 tons of traction can be overloaded. In July 2004, held at the Ministry of Railways locomotive quality of the second show at the new office, equipped with Yongji motors, electrical appliances, electrical wiring and kind, comprehensive car won the first two competitions. Developed by the Dalian factory, equipped with Yongji Dongfeng Motor Factory 4D series locomotives, the maximum test speed of 157.5 kilometers per hour as April 1, 1997, China has four major speed-up the main railway locomotives, accounting for speed diesel market share of more than 70%. In May 2004, Yongji belong to Dongfeng Motor Factory equipped with diesel motors 4D series of the "National Science and Technology Progress Award."

At present, the majority of running two series of motor has reached more than 900,000 kilometers, through an overhaul of the test period, various performance indicators fully meet the speed, heavy locomotive requirements. In particular, the failure rate of 0.09 / 10 million km, only the United States the use of GE motor failure rate in the country half the product reliability up to international standards.

In order to meet the great development of China's railway locomotive power transmission device for the demand, they have made "high-speed heavy, which simultaneously electricity" development strategy to speed up diesel locomotive traction motors, electrical development pace. Today, Yongji Motor Factory has become the first developed and mass provide rail traction power machine owners Model matching Motor control device business.

At present, the Yongji Motor Factory will be the world's top 500 Alstom, Toshiba, Hitachi, EMD, Siemens introduced seven projects, three kinds of models, with the world motorcycle motor Junjie start a new scientific and technological innovation contest. Speed of 200 km and above, EMU, a speed of 300 km rail EMUs ... ... I believe the near future, racing along a journey of independent innovation in Yongji Motor Factory will surely be China's "maglev", "Shinkansen" more stronger, faster, more secure.

List of Australian Diesel Locomotives $157.72 Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Diesel locomotives used on the railways of Australia. A Diesel locomotive is a type of railroad locomotive in which the prime mover is a Diesel engine. Several types have been developed, the principal distinction being in the means by which the prime movers mechanical power is conveyed to the driving wheels (drivers). Early internal combustion enginepowered locomotives used gasoline as their fuel. Soon after Dr. Rudolf Diesel patented his first compression ignition engine in 1892, its application for railway propulsion was considered. Progress was slow, however, because of the poor powertoweight ratio of the early engines, as well as the difficulty inherent in mechanically applying power to multiple driving wheels on swiveling trucks (bogies).

The World Market for Diesel-Electric Locomotives $325 This report was created for strategic planners, international executives and import/export managers who are concerned with the market for self-propelled railway or tramway coaches, vans, and trucks excluding maintenance or service vehicles. With the globalization of this market, managers can no longer be contented with a local view. Nor can managers be contented with out-of-date statistics that appear several years after the fact. I have developed a methodology, based on macroeconomic and trade models, to estimate the market for self-propelled railway or tramway coaches, vans, and trucks excluding maintenance or service vehicles for those countries serving the world market via exports or supplying from various countries via imports. I do so for the current year based on a variety of key historical indicators and econometric models.

Light Locomotives by Porter Company, H. K. [Paperback] $26.22 In 1866, Henry Kirke Porter and John smith opened a machine shop in Pittsburgh and began producing light locomotives for industrial use under the name Smith Porter. After a disastrous fire in 1871, the company dissolved. Both partners eventually went back into the locomotive business, with Smith forming the National Locomotive Works which specialized in narrow gauge engines. Henry Porters company focused its efforts on building fourwheel saddle tank locomotives for industry. These were powered by steam, gasoline and diesel. The company also made a series of compressed air engines for use in mine haulage. Porters business thrived and in 1906 delivered almost 400 locomotives. One reason for the companys success was a result of superior design that utilized a system of interchangeable parts across the line. This facilitated rapid assembly and delivery to customers, and easy maintenance over the life of the engine. Henry Porter continued to run the company until 1921 when he died at the age of 81. Despite a bankruptcy in 1939, H.K. Porter continued in business up until 1950 when it was liquidated. Author: Porter Company, H. K.
