Abstract
The schemes of mechanisms allowing automatic regulation of pressure of smooth drive wheels on the rail depending on the train resistance value and traction force created by these wheels are considered. The torque acting on the drive wheels ensures the realization of a constant coefficient of traction of the drive wheels with the rail in the mode of elastic sliding under any working loads.
