Description of Single Turnout
A single turnout in a railway context is a basic type of track switch that allows trains to diverge from a main track onto a single diverging track. It’s the most common type of turnout and consists of a switch, a frog, and connecting rails.
Single turnout is one of the common railway accessories. Movable switch single turnout is a type of single turnout, which means that some components of the switch can move to ensure the continuity of the rail line when the train passes. Eliminate the harmful space existing on the fixed switch of the single turnout, and the guard rail can also be eliminated. At the same time, the geometric irregularity of the single turnout switch in the longitudinal section can be greatly reduced. Thereby significantly reducing the wheel-rail interaction at the switch part of the single turnout. Improving the running smoothness and stability, and prolonging the service life of the switch.
