Abstract

A drop-frame urban rapid transit car includes passenger cells and travelling mechanism parts having a running gear, which are connected to one another at end surfaces by joint parts. The travelling mechanism parts disposed at ends of the car receive an engineer's cab. The object of the invention was to develop the drop-frame urban rapid transit car in a way which ensured the best possible utilization of the enveloping space and the best possible utilization of the available base area, a concept which makes it possible to construct a vehicle meeting the requirements of a modern urban rapid transit car, and at the same time with the most advantageous utilization of the necessary production devices, a minimum of different structural parts and a simple assembly. The object was achieved by providing that the passenger cell, the travelling mechanism part, the joint part and the engineer's cab be constructed as modules, and that each respective travelling mechanism module, joint module, passenger module and head module always have the same structure and be interchangeable independently of their location in the car.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Niederflur-Stadtbahnwagen entsprechend dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a low-floor light rail car according to the preamble of claim 1.

Bei Niderflur-Stadtbahnwagen ist es allgemein bekannt, Fahrgastzellen und Fahrwerkteile als separate, bei Montage zusammensetzbare Bauteile auszubilden. Hierbei ist es bekannt, mehrere Fahrgastzellen und Fahrwerkteile miteinander gelenkig zu verbinden, wobei die mittleren Fahrgastzellen und Fahrwerkteile im wagenbaulichen Bereich gleich ausgebildet sind. Die an den Enden des Stadtbahnwagens angeordneten Fahrwerkteile bilden mit dem Führerstand eine Baueinheit.In low-floor light rail vehicles, it is generally known to design passenger compartments and chassis parts as separate components that can be assembled during assembly. It is known here to connect a plurality of passenger cells and undercarriage parts to one another in an articulated manner, the middle passenger cells and undercarriage parts having the same design in the area of the wagon construction. The chassis parts arranged at the ends of the light rail car form a structural unit with the driver's cab.

Nachteilig ist bei dieser Ausführung, daß das stirnendige Fahrwerkteil und die mittleren Fahrwerkteile unterschiedlich ausgebildet sind. Weiter ist von Nachteil, daß bei der direkten Anbindung des Führerstandes an das erste Fahrwerkteil die elektrische Antriebsausrüstung in die sich an das erste Fahrwerkteil anschließende Fahrgastzelle untergebracht werden müssen. Hierdurch bedingt sind auch die Inneneinrichtung und die Innenausrüstung der einzelnen Fahrgastzellen unterschiedlich und für eine rationelle Fertigung ungeeignet. Weiter ist von Nachteil, daß durch Überhangverzicht am Fahrzeugende eine eingeschränkte Grundfläche des Gesamtfahrzeugs für den zulässigen Hüllraum zur Verfügung steht.A disadvantage of this design is that the front-end chassis part and the middle chassis parts are designed differently. Another disadvantage is that, when the driver's cab is directly connected to the first chassis part, the electrical drive equipment must be accommodated in the passenger cell adjoining the first chassis part. As a result, the interior and interior of the individual passenger compartments are different and unsuitable for efficient production. A further disadvantage is that a waiver of overhang at the end of the vehicle provides a limited base area for the entire vehicle for the permissible envelope.

Aus der US-A-4 644 872 ist ein Niederflur-Stadtbahnwagen bekannt, bei welchem zwischen zwei Fahrgastzellen ein Fahrwerksteil mit einem Laufwerk, Gelenkteilen und einem darüber befindlichen Innenraum angeordnet ist, an welchem Fahrwerksteil die Fahrgastzellen jeweils gelenkig angestützt sind.From US-A-4 644 872 a low-floor light rail vehicle is known, in which a running gear part with a running gear, articulated parts and an interior space is arranged between two passenger cells, on which running gear part the passenger cells are each articulated.

Dabei sind die Nutzungsmöglichkeiten des bekannten Stadtbahnwagens insoweit nicht optimal, als der Innenraum des Fahrwerkteils keine Inneneinrichtung für die Fahrgäste aufweist, sondern nur als Durchgang von einer Fahrgastzelle in die nächste vorgesehen ist.The possible uses of the known light rail car are not optimal insofar as the interior of the chassis part has no interior for the passengers, but is only provided as a passage from one passenger cell to the next.

Ausgehend vom vorstehenden Stand der Technik ist es Aufgabe der Erfindung einen Niederflur-Stadtbahnwagen der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, der bei optimaler Ausnutzung des Hüllraumes und optimaler Ausnutzung der zur Verfügung stehenden Grundfläche, einem Minimum an unterschiedlichen Bauteilen eine einfache Montage gestattet.Starting from the above prior art, it is an object of the invention to provide a low-floor light rail car of the type mentioned which, with optimal use of the envelope and optimal use of the available base area, allows a minimum of different components for easy assembly.

Diese Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Dementsprechend ist vorgesehen, daß die Gelenkteile als Gelenkmodule 2 ausgebildet sind, die zwischen den Fahrwerksmodulen 1 und den Fahrgastmodulen 3 angeordnet sind, daß die Gelenkmodule 2 jeweils mit einer Stirnseite starr an den Fahrwerksmodulen 1 befestigt sind, daß die Fahrwerksmodule 1 eine Inneneinrichtung wie die Fahrgastmodule 3 aufweisen und daß an wenigstens einem Ende des Niederflur-Stadtbahnwagens ein Kopfmodul 4 angeordnet ist, das ebenfalls mit einer Inneneinrichtung versehen ist.This object is achieved according to the invention by the characterizing features of patent claim 1. Accordingly, it is provided that the hinge parts are designed as hinge modules 2, which are arranged between the chassis modules 1 and the passenger modules 3, that the hinge modules 2 are each rigidly attached to the chassis modules 1 with one end face, that the chassis modules 1 are an interior device such as the passenger modules 3 and that a head module 4 is arranged at at least one end of the low-floor light rail car, which is also provided with an interior device.

Hierbei ist bei einem Zweirichtungsfahrzeug die Inneneinrichtung (Sitze, Führerplatz) in den Fahrgastmodulen, Fahrwerkmodulen und Kopmodulen jeweils gleich ausgebildet, während bei einem Einrichtungsfahrzeug die Inneneinrichtung (Sitze) in den Fahrwerkmodulen und Fahrgastmodulen jeweils gleich ausgebildet und je ein Kopfmodul mit dem Führerplatz und ein Kopfmodul mit Sitz- oder Stehplätzen ausgerüstet ist. Ein wesentliches Element der Erfindung besteht darin, daß die stirnseitigen, miteinander zu verbindenden Enden der einzelnen Module (Fahrwerkmodul, Gelenkmodul, Fahrgastmodul, Kopfmodul) gleich ausgebildet sind. Weiter ist gemäß der Erfindung die wagenbauliche, elektrische, pneumatische und mechanische Ausrüstung der jeweiligen Module (Fahrwerkmodul, Gelenkmodul, Fahrgastmodul, Kopfmodul) stets gleich angeordnet.In the case of a two-way vehicle, the interior (seats, driver's seat) in the passenger modules, undercarriage modules and head modules are each of the same design, while in the case of a unidirectional vehicle, the interior (seats) in the undercarriage modules and passenger modules are each of the same design and one head module with the driver's seat and one head module is equipped with seating or standing room. An essential element of the invention is that the front ends of the individual modules (chassis module, joint module, passenger module, head module) to be connected to one another are of identical design. Furthermore, according to the invention, the wagon construction, electrical, pneumatic and mechanical equipment of the respective modules (chassis module, joint module, passenger module, head module) is always arranged in the same way.

Durch die erfindungsgemäße Ausbildung des Niederflur-Stadtbahnwagens mit der Anordnung von regelmäßig wiederkehrenden in sich baugleichen Modulen wird bei geschickter Anordnung der einzelnen Module die Zusammensetzung von beliebigen Fahrzeugsystemen ermöglicht. Die einzelnen Module sind jeweils gesondert als Konstruktionsmodule aufgebaut und somit für alle denkbaren Anforderungen ausrüstbar. Änderungen innerhalb eines Moduls beeinflussen nicht das Gesamtsystem, da die einzelnen Module stets wiederkehrend gleiche Bauteilenden aufweisen und stets in der gleichen Form mit den Nachbarmodulen verbindbar sind. Die weiteren Vorteile der erfindungsgemäßen Ausführung bestehen darin, daß eine optimale Nutzung des Hüllraumes sowohl in der Geraden, als auch im Bogeneinlauf, im S-Bogen und im Bogen möglich ist. Die Optimierung der Wagenbreite über die gesamte Fahrzeuglänge ist durch entsprechende Kombination von Modulen möglich. Ebenso ist die Fahrzeuglänge durch die entsprechende Modulkombination optimierbar. Das Kopfmodul läßt die Anordnung eines Behindertenliftes zu, ohne die Gesamtstatik des Fahrzeugs zu beeinträchtigen. Die Ausbildung des erfindungsgemäßen Niederflurwagens ist für alle denkbaren Spurweiten möglich. In der Fertigung führen die sich wiederholenden Module zu erheblich geringeren anteiligen Vorrichtungskosten. Die Fertigung wird ebenfalls durch verbesserte Zugänglichkeit erheblich vereinfacht.The inventive design of the low-floor light rail car with the arrangement of regularly recurring modules of identical construction allows the composition of any vehicle systems with a clever arrangement of the individual modules. The individual modules are each constructed separately as construction modules and can therefore be equipped for all conceivable requirements. Changes within a module do not influence the overall system, since the individual modules always have the same component ends and can always be connected to the neighboring modules in the same form. The further advantages of the embodiment according to the invention consist in the fact that an optimal use of the envelope space is possible both in the straight line and in the sheet inlet, in the S-sheet and in the sheet. The combination of modules can be used to optimize the carriage width over the entire length of the vehicle. The vehicle length can also be optimized using the appropriate module combination. The head module allows the arrangement of a lift for the disabled without affecting the overall statics of the vehicle. The design of the low-floor car according to the invention is possible for all conceivable track gauges. In manufacturing, the repeating modules lead to significantly lower proportionate device costs. Manufacturing is also considerably simplified by improved accessibility.
