3 Terms and Definitions

For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in GB/T 4549 (all parts) and the following apply. 3.1 Rolling stock The locomotives, EMUs, passenger cars, and freight cars running on the track are collectively referred to as rolling stock. 3.2 Car body Supported by the bogie, it mainly plays a bearing role and is an integral part of the rolling stock. 3.3 Car body structure The main load-bearing structure of the car body is composed of one or more of the main structural parts such as the underframe, side walls, end walls, roof, and cab. 3.4 Connecting device for equipment Fasteners for installing equipment and related local load-bearing structure or installation structure. 3.6 Bogie frame The integral welded parts that are used to connect the axle box and transmit the force in the bogie; they are generally located between the primary suspension and the secondary suspension. 3.7 Exceptional load Occasionally, the maximum load that does not affect the integrity of the rolling stock and the normal operation.

4 Coordinate System and Unit System

4.1 Coordinate system The coordinate system is shown in Figure 1.The longitudinal direction of the rolling stock corresponds to the X-axis, the transverse direction corresponds to the Y-axis, and the vertical direction corresponds to the Z-axis. All parameters of this Standard are expressed in the basic units and the derived units of the International System of Units (SI) (Value-g is 9.81 m/s2).

5 Classification of Rolling Stock

5.1 Classification of structure According to the structural characteristics and design use, the rolling stock is divided into four types. locomotive (L), EMU (U), passenger car (P) and freight car (F), and then further divided according to structural requirements. 5.2 Locomotives 5.4 Passenger cars The non-articulated railway vehicles for passenger transportation and trailers and control cars in relatively articulated power-concentrated EMUs are classified in this category. Its structure type is identified as P. 5.5 Freight cars The non-articulated railway vehicles used for the goods transportation are classified into this category (excluding special freight cars such as long and large freight cars). This group defines two structure types, and the corresponding type identifiers are as follows.
