ELECTROMECHANICAL ASSEMBLY FOR A BRAKING SYSTEM OF A RAILWAY VEHICLE, CONTROL SYSTEM OF THE ELECTROMECHANICAL ASSEMBLY, AND BRAKING SYSTEM INCLUDING THE ELECTROMECHANICAL ASSEMBLY AND THE CONTROL SYSTEM

An electromechanical assembly for a braking system of a railway vehicle is described, characterized in that it comprises a flywheel arranged to accumulate kinetic energy; wherein the kinetic energy accumulated in the flywheel is sufficient to operate the electromechanical assembly to cause the braking system to perform at least one emergency or service or parking brake action. Also described are a control system for an electromechanical assembly for a braking system of a railway vehicle and a braking system for a railway vehicle.
