Abstract

Nowadays, with the construction of the railway has been more and more consummate and the environment requirements of the place where locomotive drives are also increasing, so the demand for a series of rail engineering vehicles have increased. In order to adapt for the various working condition of the rail engineering vehicles, so the rail engineering vehicles must have a good dynamic performance, and there need a hydraulic transmission device which used the hydraulic torque converter and the hydraulic coupler to control speed. In the transmission system, the hydraulic coupler and the hydraulic torque converter can switch flexibly. And this makes the rail engineering vehicles can deal with all kinds of different working conditions, and thus it improve the efficiency of the vehicle. This paper introduces the characteristics of the hydraulic torque converter and the hydraulic coupler, the selection of the shift gear parameters, strategy formulation of shift, and the principle of the shift strategy with optimal traction, thus we formed the final shift strategy.
