What can cause mining electric locomotive to derail?
As a rail transportation tool, the mining electric locomotive has a unique accident compared with ordinary vehicles - derailment. What are the reasons for mining electric locomotive derailment?
After sorting out the information a little, the reasons for the derailment of mining electric locomotives can be roughly divided into three categories: track problems, electric locomotive problems and human problems (use problems).
Track problems: For example, the track or sleepers are severely worn, decayed or even damaged, the radius of the curve is smaller than the minimum turning radius of the electric locomotive, and the outer height of the curve is not enough, etc. Even too much oil and foreign matter on the track may cause the electric locomotive to derail.
Electric locomotive problem: The electric locomotive itself is generally not the cause of derailment. Once the derailment is due to the electric locomotive itself, the problem will be serious. Because the reason for the derailment of the electric locomotive itself is nothing more than the serious wear and tear of the transmission system, or even failure, so even if it does not derail, other problems are prone to occur.
Human problems: Human problems are improper use/operation. Mainly illegal operations, such as random transportation of "four super" items, especially when the loading is not in compliance. And the driver's mental state is not good, he didn't notice that he was speeding when cornering, or he didn't detect some problems in driving in time.
