This book was released on 2018-10-03 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Westinghouse Automatic Brake The automatic action of the brake is due to the construction of the triple valve. The primary parts of which are a piston and a slide-valve. A redue tion of pressure in the brake-pipe causes the excess of pressure in the aux iliary reservoir to force the piston of the triple valve down. Moving the slide-valve so as to allow the air in the auxiliary reservoir to pass directly into the brake-cylinder and apply the brakes. When the pressure in the brake-pipe is again increased above that in the auxiliary reservoir. The piston is forced up. Moving the slitleovalve to its former position. Opening communication from the brake-pipe to the auxiliary reservoir, and permitting the air in the brake-cylinder to escape, thus releasing the brakes. Thus it will be seen that any radar/ion a] pressure in {be brake-pipe app/11's (lu bmérs, which is the essential feature of the automatic brake. If the engineer wishes to apply the brakes, he moves the handle of the engi neer's brake-valve to the right, which first closes a valve retaining the pressure in the main reservoir. And then permits a portion of the air in the brake-pipe to escape. To release the brakes. He turns the handle to its former position, which allows the air in the main reservoir to flow into the brake. Pipe. Restoring the pressure and releasing the brakes. A valve. Called the conductor's valve. Is placed in each car. With a cord running the length of the car. And any of the train-men. By pulling this cord, can open the valve, which allows the air to escape from the brake-pipe. Should the train break in two, the air in the brake-pipe escapes, and the brakes are applied to both sections of the train; and should a hose or pipe burst. The brakes are also automatically applied.

This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Air Brake Instruction Book of the Westinghouse Air Brake Company The present edition of our Instruction Book is in the nature of a revision of our previous publications. It has been our aim to condense and simplify the descriptive matter as much as possible, and at the same time to present a complete description of the parts and their operation in the air-brake and air-signal equipment. In it will be found illustrations and explanations of the new devices, as well as of any modifications of older appliances which have been made with the idea of furnishing the best possible air brake and air-signal equipment. We have distributed many thousand copies of previous editions of our Instruction Book among railway officers and employees in this and other countries, the net result of which has been the education of railroad men in the subject of air brakes, to such an extent that we are led to believe that much of the matter heretofore published can be consistently omitted, especially as there are now many other publications which deal with brake subjects at greater length and provide a source of information in de tail, which may be referred to, if desired. For this reason, the present edition of our Instruction Book has been some what abridged and presents a terse description of the func tions and methods of operation of the devices supplied by this company for the equipment of railroads with its air brake and air-signal apparatus.
