What are the safety designs for battery electric locomotives?

2021-08-12
Rail locomotive transportation with battery electric locomotive as the power source is the main mode of mine transportation in our country. The entire transportation system is composed of rails, mine cars, electric locomotives and other auxiliary equipment.
There are many potential hazards in the working environment of the mine. In order to avoid and deal with these potential hazards, manufacturers of lithium battery electric locomotives have made many safety designs when designing electric locomotives. Let's take a look at what they have.
1.The most basic is that the car body uses thick steel plates to increase the weight of the electric locomotive while enhancing the impact resistance of the electric locomotive.
2.Secondly, when choosing a battery, choose a low-height flat and long appearance, which expands the driver's rear vision and facilitates observation of the surrounding situation.
3.In addition, in order to achieve the purpose of braking more effectively, electric locomotive brake devices, in addition to pure mechanical braking as a basic guarantee, most electric locomotives will be equipped with air brakes or hydraulic brakes.
4.In addition, there are the explosion-proof version of the controller and other components on the explosion-proof electric locomotive, as well as the gas power cut-off device.
The above is the safety design content of the battery electric locomotive.
