- how coupling train technology
The Scharfenberg coupler (German: Scharfenbergkupplung or Schaku) is probably the most commonly used type of fully automatic coupling. Designed in 1903 by Karl Scharfenberg in Königsberg, Germany (today Kaliningrad, Russia), it has gradually spread from transit trains to regular passenger service trains, although outside Europe its use is generally restricted to mass transit systems. The Schaku coupler is superior in many ways to the AAR (Janney/Knuckle) coupler because it makes the electrical and also the pneumatic connections and disconnections automatic. However, there is no standard for the placement of these electro-pneumatic connections. Some rail companies have them placed on the sides while others have them placed above the mechanical portion of the Schaku coupler
A coupling (or a coupler) is a mechanism for connecting rolling stock in a train. The design of the coupler is standard, and is almost as important as the track gauge, since flexibility and convenience are maximised if all rolling stock can be coupled together.
There are two different kinds of couplers in the units: Automatic couplers on both unit ends (driver cab car), which permit the coupling with another unit, and semi-permanent couplers, which permit a permanent connection between cars forming a unit.
The equipment that connects the couplings to the rolling stock is known as the draft gear or draw gear.
The capacity of a rail convoy often needs to be adjusted to adapt to peak traffic.
Many trains have a fixed configuration. It is therefore necessary to resort to coupling between two trains:
Today, coupling or uncoupling is no longer carried out manually: it is directly controlled by the driver, using the control panel in the driver’s cab.
During coupling, one train approaches another at low speed to limit the effect of the “jolt”. They are then linked together by an automatic coupler, consisting of: mechanical systems to ensure the connection between the two trains, pneumatic ducts to guarantee continuity between the two trains, and finally, electrical connector heads to allow both trains to be controlled from a single cabin. To optimise aerodynamics, coupling systems are sometimes hidden away behind hatches.

I was literally searching for dirty minded comments about train coupling connection getting connected to smooching and guess what I was successful in finding a couple do comments. Well done peeps . You deserve 21 shoe salute
Alvia renfe S130 Spanish train, viva y arriba España 🇪🇸
No offense,
shibata coupler is much more simple and compact in design and function than schafenburg coupler !
But not reliable as Scharfenberg coupler because the tolerance is very less.
@@SouravBagchigoogleplus if it was not reliable then why it is used in Shinkansen and most of the Japanese trains. Skinkansen is the highly reliable train service in the world. From the start (October 1964), there was not a single disaster till now. Also the average delay of Shinkansen service is 50 seconds.
I can not find a locking mechanism in this video. Does anyone know how to lock?
when a mommy train and a daddy train love each other very VERY much
👍Nice inovation
Schaku? It is a Dellner coupler on the begining.
nice
A train Kiss.
That least all the journey
Now imagine if a Stadler Flirt couples with a Stadler Kiss train
Coupler lore XD
Can you share the music track id please ?
aaaa bir türk
So basically the uk version of a USA coupler then the old buffers and chains.
Not just the uk, it's a european style tbh
What is the purpose of the part that sticks out?
as far as i know, to manually uncouple
or align the both couplers
i cant verify any of these claims
@@garemge ah, right, that would make sense
a bit late, but it seems to be a handle for aligning the coupler when using a locomotive that doesn't have a schaku coupler. for example, using a class 37 to tow a broken down class 745
@@Saismee Yeah, it's strange to see how clueless I used to be lmao
@@bleentrean5849 funnily enough, theres a video of the example I gave and they don't use the handle at all...
its still a strange addition that pokes out of the front of the class 800s
👍
PLEASE MAKE AN EXTRA VIDEO JUST WITH THIS PART: 3:17
original animatin link pls
The AAR pattern coupler is a lot stronger than a Scharfenberg though, and therefore better for the much heavier freight trains in the USA.
In most countries, knuckle coupling is used for freight train because freight train doesn't need an electrical connection. But the manual joining of pneumatic connections is a very risky job.
@@SouravBagchigoogleplus Europe is going to also use Sharfenberg like couplings for freight trains to make the coupling quicker
@@evo3s75yes, so they are phasing out the old UIC-normed chain and buffer couplings especially in Switzerland
As the Male train selects his mate. He moves into position and after a few seconds breeding commences. Ensuring another generation will live on!
dunno if blowing the joke or continuing it, but they're actually both hermaphrodites
EDIT: (in fact that's technical terminology for when connectors are both male and female at once and two identical ones mate together)
@@Kalvinjj I believe they are an A sexual species related to snails and slugs. If no other trains around, it could reproduce by itself!
Idiotic music!!!
No u
