26、sed as “loaded” and thereby requires the brake force to be adjusted accordingly to achieve the required brake performance. This European Standard also covers manually operated empty-loaded changeover devices and the associated changeover plates. This European Standard specifies the requirements for

27、the design, dimensions, manufacture and testing of empty-loaded changeover devices. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

41、control system; this shall be mechanical or pneumatic. The method of producing the pneumatic signal shall be a mechanically operated pneumatic device, hydraulic to pneumatic converter device or an elastomeric to pneumatic converter device. 4.2.1.2 The empty-loaded changeover device shall, in all cas

42、es, supply an output signal (Lsp), which is a function of the load. 4.2.1.3 The empty-loaded changeover device shall not alter any of the characteristics of the distributor and/or any associated relay device, when fitted to a vehicle, thereby not altering the characteristics of the brake system, oth

43、er than to signal the load change and thereby cause the brake cylinder pressure to change between the two states. 4.2.1.4 The design of the empty-loaded changeover device shall either provide a positive output pressure (positive load signal pressure device) or exhaust the output pressure to nominall

44、y 0 bar (zero load signal pressure device) in the loaded state dependant on the applicable design requirements. 4.2.1.5 The air consumption of a pneumatic empty-loaded changeover device shall, during running of the vehicle, be minimal and shall not interfere with the normal braking performance of th

45、at vehicle. A test which can be used to confirm this is described in A.3.2. 4.2.2 Automatic empty-loaded changeover device 4.2.2.1 General 4.2.2.1.1 An automatic empty-loaded changeover device shall change from the empty to loaded state or vice versa, when the vehicle mass exceeds or falls below the

46、 changeover mass by a deliberate load change. 4.2.2.1.2 When an automatic empty-loaded changeover device is fitted to a vehicle the changeover shall take place within 5 % of the defined vehicle changeover mass. A test which can be used to confirm this is described in A.3.2.1. 4.2.2.1.3 An automatic

47、empty-loaded changeover device may have a damping facility within its mechanism to prevent the effects of transient suspension movement from causing a change of the load signal. 4.2.2.1.4 An automatic empty-loaded changeover device shall be designed to fit to a vehicle in a position to sense the loa

48、d change of that vehicle, causing a change of state of the changeover device. This may be within the vehicle suspension system or linked to it, in order to sense the load change. 4.2.2.2 Changeover response Where the empty-loaded changeover device does not include integral damping the response of th

49、e output pressure shall be immediate, i.e. the pressure shall fall or increase dependant on the particular design of the device, as soon as the device is moved from one state to another. Where the empty-loaded changeover device has integral damping a delay in the output pressure (Lsp) response shall be apparent. 4.2.2.3 Empty to loaded changeover 4.2.2.3.1 Integrally damped device supplied with air from the distributor auxiliary reservoir or main reservoir When the operating mechanism is moved to the loaded position and kept there for longe
