602. FABRICATED BOX BOGIE (UIC BOGIE)<br />

602A. GENERAL DESCRIPTION<br />

These bogies are used on BOX, BCX, BCXT, BRH, BRS wagons. It is<br />

also known as UIC bogie.<br />

The BOX bogie is designed for an axle load of 20.3t. It is an all<br />

welded, plate fabricated bogie having a fixed bolster with hemispherical centre<br />

pivot and primary suspension incorporating four laminated bearing springs<br />

with long links supported by mild steel stones. The suspension arrangement<br />

and axle box design with liberal lateral and longitudinal clearance are intended<br />

to permit the wheel set to “float” relative to the bogie frame, with the object of<br />

improving the riding characteristics of the bogie. The roller bearing axle boxes<br />

are provided with “L” type lugs, so that in its lateral movement, wheel set is<br />

constrained by only one axle box at a time and there is no reversal in bending<br />

of bogie sole plate.<br />

602 B. CONSTRUCTIONAL DETAILS<br />

A limited number of mark ‘O’ type bogies were applied on BOX, BRH<br />

and BRS type wagons during their initial production. The bogie frame of the<br />

Mark ‘O’ type is of a riveted cum welded construction whereas Mark-I has an<br />

all welded plate fabricated bogie frame. Apart from this basic change in the<br />

construction of the bogie frame, there is no change in any of the general<br />

design features between Mark-I and Mark ‘O’ bogies. Both of them are<br />

interchangeable. Mark ‘O’ bogies has withdrawn from service.
