The invention relates to a transport trolley, in particular a transport rail vehicle, with two loading areas one above the other to accommodate of vehicles, with the upper loading area consisting of two parts, each of which is movable Elements of the winches adjusting the height of the upper loading area are seated and in the direction of can be pivoted up on the longitudinal walls of the car around joints.

In a known railway transport car of this type, the side stanchions are designed to be height-adjustable by means of spindles and carry individual ones by means of horizontal pivot pins Extension arms that swiveled down into a horizontal position or up against the stanchions can be folded up and have running rails at their free ends. The ends of the swung away The cantilever arms of both sides of the wagon have a clearance between them that is about half that distance Corresponds to the width of the wagon. Apart from the running rails, there are no stiffening elements whatsoever available. Swivel arms or stanchions are neither in the longitudinal direction of the car nor in the transverse direction of the car connected to each other, which keeps the rails extremely unstable. These cars are suitable therefore ideally suited for the transport of light to medium-weight passenger cars.

In another known trolley are laterally arranged running plates to horizontal Axles pivoted on the stanchions and are in the operating position by extension arms held, which sit on the stanchions so that they can pivot about vertical axes. The laterally arranged stanchions are only at their free ends by weak longitudinal bars and at the end of the wagon connected by such weak cross bars. Neither are the swiveled-away plates themselves connected to one another, there are still transverse or longitudinal stiffeners acting directly between the stanchions provided, so that here too the upper loading area is kept so unstable that at best only medium-weight passenger cars can be loaded. Larger and heavier vehicles can therefore only transported by rail on the lower loading area or on normal platform trucks will; the transport trolley described can therefore not with regard to its load-bearing capacity always be fully exploited.

The object of the invention is to improve the loading capacity of a transport vehicle of the type described above To increase genus, d. H. to increase the load-bearing capacity of the upper loading area.

This object is achieved in that the movable elements of the winches by Longitudinal beams and these in turn are connected by the upper loading area supporting cross beams, the can be pivoted up to the longitudinal walls of the car in a manner known per se. The Winches have hydraulic cylinder units, each of which has a piston rod that can be moved vertically Slide is connected, which in turn are rigidly connected to one another by a longitudinal beam and on the one hand the pivoting loading area parts and on the other hand the horizontal or vertical one Hold the pivoting cross member on the axis. The entire supporting structure for the upper loading area can therefore be in Longitudinal and transverse directions are extremely stable and can accommodate significantly greater loads than this was previously possible. Whether trucks or other heavy vehicles are picked up on both loading areas is only a question of the demarcation profile, so that, for example, the lower Loading area with trucks without or with low superstructures and the upper loading area can lower accordingly deep. This possibility exists especially when transporting open Box or platform wagons. By suitable combinations of the different to be loaded Vehicle types, the capacity of the trolley can therefore be better in terms of weight and space exploit.

According to a particular embodiment of the invention, each cross member consists of two transverse

In the embodiment of the railway car according to the invention shown in FIG. 6 through 8 illustrated is, each cross member of the upper loading area consists of two cross member parts 21 and 22, each of which can be pivoted up about a horizontal axis 23 or 24; these axes 23 and 24 are in fork supports 25 and 26, which in turn are supported by one of the two longitudinal members 5 and 5 'of the railroad car will.

The two cross member parts 21 and 22 can be formed with one another and welded to one another Sheets or profiles be composed.

Each cross member 21 and 22 carries at its free end support elements which, for. B. the cross member 21 consist of two vertical flat profiles 27 and 28 which extend it and form a fork in which, when the cross member parts 21 and 22 are folded down, the end 29 of the other cross member part 22 inserts, the support elements on the one hand from a bracket 30 against which the free ends of the Support flat profiles 27 and 28 of the cross member 21, and on the other hand from a stop body 31 exist, which rests on the flat profiles 27 and 28. The end portion of the cross member 21 is Reduced in width so far that the two flat profiles 27 and 28 fit tightly on its sides can be attached to it. In addition, the designated 29 end of the cross member 22 in its width is also reduced so that this end can engage between the two flat profiles 27 and 28 can. The ends of the flat profiles are secured by the retaining bracket 30 welded to the cross member 22 27 and 28 also guided and prevented from dodging sideways.

The stop body 31 welded to the free end of the cross member 22 consists for example Made of a strong flat iron and is supported when the two cross member parts 21 and 22 are joined on the upper edges of the flat profiles 27 and 28 as soon as the two cross member parts 21 and 22 into one common horizontal plane.

If the two cross member parts are in this horizontal position after they are in their Swiveling down have interlocked in the manner described above, they are mutually locked, without it being necessary to provide additional brackets or connecting straps.

If the lower loading area is to be released for loading, the upper loading area parts are pivoted back up and the two cross member parts 21 and 22 about the axes 23 and Folded up without hindering the vehicles on the lower loading area will.
