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 Mark ‘O’ bogies has withdrawn from service.
