Summary:A railcar coupler may INC.lude a coupler head comprising a shank (106) and a head portion (102), the head portion defining a cavity (104) for receiving a knuckle (108), a thrower (110), and a lock (112). The cavity can INC.lude a top pulling lug (130a), a bottom pulling lug (130b), and a thrower retaining lug (140). The top pulling lug can be configured to engage an upper knuckle pulling lug (109a), and the bottom pulling lug being can be configured to engage a lower knuckle pulling lug (109b). During operation of the railcar coupler, the ratio of the stress between the top pulling lug and thebottom pulling lug can be configured to be better balanced to help extend the life of the railcar coupler assembly. 有轨车车钩可包括车钩头部，所述车钩头部包括钩身(106)和头部(102)，其界定用于容纳钩舌(108)、推铁(110)和锁(112)的腔室(104)。所述腔室可包括上牵引突缘(130a)、下牵引突缘(130b)和推铁挡块(140)。所述上牵引突缘可配置成接合上部钩舌牵引突缘(109a)，并且所述下牵引突缘可配置成接合下部钩舌牵引突缘(109b)。在所述有轨车车钩的运行过程中，所述上牵引突缘和所述下牵引突缘之间的压力比值可被更好地平衡以有助于延长有轨车车钩组件的寿命。
