a safety device placed at the end of a railway track to prevent trains from moving beyond that point
A buffer stop is a safety device placed at the end of a railway track to prevent trains from going past the track's end or colliding with obstacles. It absorbs the impact if a train moves too far along the track or fails to stop in time. Buffer stops are usually found at the end of dead-end tracks, station platforms, or sidings. They can be made of various materials such as metal or concrete and are designed to slow down or stop the train safely, reducing the risk of damage to the train or the surrounding infrastructure.
- The buffer stop ensures that trains come to a safe and controlled halt at the end of the track.
缓冲挡板确保列车在轨道末端安全且受控地停止。
- Engineers regularly inspect and maintain buffer stops to guarantee their effectiveness in railway operations.
工程师定期检查和维护缓冲挡板，以确保其在铁路运营中的有效性。
- When a train approaches the buffer stop, it activates braking systems automatically to avoid collisions.
当火车接近缓冲挡板时，它会自动激活制动系统以避免碰撞。
- Buffer stops are designed to absorb impact energy in case of accidental overruns, minimizing damage to both trains and infrastructure.
缓冲挡板的设计是为了在意外超限时吸收冲击能量，最小化对火车和基础设施的损害。
- In some cases, buffer stops are equipped with sensors to alert railway operators of any potential issues or obstructions on the track.
在某些情况下，缓冲挡板配备有传感器，以提醒铁路运营商轨道上任何潜在的问题或障碍物。
