What is the braking process of the mining electric locomotive?

Sometimes the mining electric locomotive needs to stop urgently during driving. What should we do at this time? What is the braking process of the mining electric locomotive?

First of all, when a problem is found and an emergency stop is required, immediately activate the hydraulic brake device or the air brake device switch.

If the two do not work or the mining electric locomotive is not equipped with either of the two braking methods, the hand wheel should be quickly turned, and the 2.5-ton mining electric locomotive is the pull rod.

Then turn the hand wheel or the air brake, and the force will be transmitted through mechanical structures such as pull rods, levers, etc., so that the brake shoes tightly fit the wheel, and finally achieve the purpose of braking. Hydraulic braking is different. In hydraulic braking, the wheel flywheel is blocked by the brake device or the motor flywheel is directly braked to achieve the purpose of braking.
