Patent ID: 8651026

Claim:
A vehicle comprising: a vehicle body; a bolster spring; a bogie which supports the vehicle body via the bolster spring; and a vehicle height adjusting mechanism which includes an integrating device, a measuring device and an elastic force adjusting device, the integrating device integrating a first relative displacement amount at a first position between the vehicle body and the bogie and a second relative displacement amount at a second position between the vehicle body and the bogie, the second position being farther than the first position from a center of the vehicle body in a width direction of the vehicle body, the measuring device measuring an integrated value of the first relative displacement amount and the second relative displacement amount, the elastic force adjusting device adjusting elastic force of the bolster spring based on the integrated value so as to adjust a relative displacement amount between the vehicle body and the bogie, wherein the integrating device of the vehicle height adjusting mechanism is a push-pull cable housed in a cable housing, one end of the push-pull cable being fixed to the vehicle body at the second position and the cable housing is mounted on the bogie in a vertical direction of the first position and the second position, and wherein the measuring device of the vehicle height adjusting mechanism includes a rotating lever and a measuring part, the rotating lever being connected to the other end of the push-pull cable by means of a pin at the first position and connected to a rotation axis mounted on the vehicle body such that the rotating lever can turn around the rotation axis, the measuring part measuring a turning angle of the rotating lever.
