June 23, 2004
In a railway bogie vehicle, vibration caused by the unbalance of the drive system can be restrained and the noise in the railway car due to the vibration can be reduced, by providing a vibration absorber comprising a container 42 containing movable particles 41, mounted on or in a connection member 20 such as a traction link, a damper or a bolster anchor. Collisions of the particles absorb vibration.
