Comparison and Load Analysis for No.12 Monobloc Manganese Frog and Its Improved Type Yang CAO, Ping WANG, Xiaoping CHEN School of Civil Engineering, Southwest Jiaotong University, Chengdu 610031, Sichuan, China Abstract: Monobloc manganese frog is made by casting nose rail and wing rail together, and its load analysisis very complicated under train load. This kind of frog has several weak points, so repeated train impacts lead to different failure consequences, including contacted fatigue wearing and fatigue crack. So analyzing stress characteristics for the normal operation of frog is very essential. Taking No.12 Monobloc manganese frog of 75kg/m rail as an example, a Monobloc frog model was made and then existing frog and two other kinds of improved frogs were analyzed by finite element method for comparison. The analysis shows that the first scheme has higher load resistance ability and strength margin However, the strength of flangeway versus direct load should be studied under dynamic situation. Key words: No.12 Monobloc manganese frog; improved scheme; stress characteristics; finite element method Frog is the equipment for the wheel to cross from one rail to another, which is composed of casting nose rail, wing rail and connection components. Monobloc manganese frog is made by casting nose rail and wing rail together, and is fully machined. Rigorous requirements are imposed to railway equipments due to Chinese railway transportation conditions: high density, large capacity, big axle load and mixed transportation of passengers and goods, which lead to different failure consequences of Monobloc manganese frog including contact fatigue wear failure and fatigue crack failure. Since it was observed horizontal crack, vertical crack and serious vertical wearing in No.12 Monobloc manganese frogs for 75kg/m rails laid on Da-Qin heavy haul railway, it is necessary to analyze stress of Monobloc manganese frog and to study its stress characteristics under different
