2. The gearbox for rail vehicle of claim 1 , wherein along the longitudinal direction of the rail vehicle, the secondary gearbox is gradually inclined upward toward a direction away from the primary gearbox.

3. The gearbox for rail vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the secondary gearbox comprises a first secondary gearbox and a second secondary gearbox arranged on both sides of the primary gearbox, respectively, the first secondary gearbox is configured to transmit power from the primary gearbox to a front wheelset of the rail vehicle, and the second secondary gearbox is configured to transmit power from the primary gearbox to a rear wheelset of the rail vehicle.

4. The gearbox for rail vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the primary gearbox comprises a primary box body including a top plate, a bottom plate, a side plate connecting the top plate and the bottom plate, and an end plate connecting the side plate, and both the side plate and the end plate are provided with avoidance holes.

5. The gearbox for rail vehicle of claim 4 , wherein both the side plate and the end plate extend toward an outer side of the top plate, and a mounting platform for air spring is formed between the top plate, the side plate and the end plate.

6. The gearbox for rail vehicle of claim 5 , wherein a mounting table is provided on a side of the top plate proximal to the mounting platform, and is configured to be connected with the secondary gearbox.

7. The gearbox for rail vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the secondary gearbox comprises a secondary box body, and the secondary box body is divided into a left box body and a right box body by a vertical longitudinal section.

8. The gearbox for rail vehicle of claim 7 , wherein each of the left box body and the right box body is formed with a first connecting flange along an opening, and a second connecting flange is arranged on an end surface of the secondary box body proximal to the primary gearbox.

9. The gearbox for rail vehicle of claim 7 , wherein the secondary box body is provided with a support seat protruding outwards for mounting bearings of the wheelset.

10. The gearbox for rail vehicle of claim 9 , wherein the secondary gearbox further comprises a first wheel axle and a second wheel axle for connecting traveling wheels on different sides of the wheelset, both the first wheel axle and the second wheel axle extend out of the secondary box body from the support seat, and an end of the first wheel axle and an end of the second wheel axle both located inside the secondary box body are connected by a differential.

11. The gearbox for rail vehicle of claim 7 , wherein an end of the secondary box body away from the primary gearbox is formed with a plug joint for connecting with an end beam of a framework.

12. A bogie for rail vehicle, comprising a gearbox for rail vehicle, comprising a primary gearbox configured to connect with a traction motor, and further comprising a secondary gearbox arranged on both sides of the primary gearbox along a longitudinal direction of the rail vehicle, wherein a framework bearing beam is formed by connecting the primary gearbox and the secondary gearbox, the primary gearbox is configured to transmit power from the traction motor to the secondary gearbox, and the secondary gearbox is configured to transmit power from the primary gearbox to wheelsets of the rail vehicle, and further comprising a traction motor and wheelsets, wherein the traction motor is connected to the primary gearbox, and the wheelset is connected to the secondary gearbox.
