The central traction device is located above the frame, the traction beam 5-1 is substantially Z-shaped. A height of the central traction device of this structure is relatively low, which reduces the occupation of vertical space. The traction beam 5-1 the traction pin 5-2 and the traction pulling rods 5-3 are not shown in the drawings, which may not prevent those skilled in the art from understanding the technical solution herein.


A specific embodiment of the frame of the bogie is provided herein.


Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 7, in a specific embodiment, the frame includes one transverse beam assembly and two longitudinal beam assemblies. The transverse beam assembly includes a transverse beam main body 20, and the transverse beam main body 20 has a box-shaped structure; that is, the transverse beam main body 20 has a hollow interior. Each of the two longitudinal beam assemblies includes a box-shaped longitudinal beam main body, and the two longitudinal beam bodies are respectively welded to two ends of the transverse beam main body 20, and the transverse beam main body 20 and the two longitudinal beam main bodies form an H-shape.
