Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Gliederbrücke eines trennbaren Übergangs zwischen gelenkig miteinander gekuppelten Fahrzeugen, insbesondere Schienenfahrzeugen
Ein trennbarer Übergang mit einer Gliederbrücke ist beispielsweise aus der EP-PS 0 331 121 bekannt. Allerdings ist die dort dargestellte Gliederbrücke nicht für alle Einsatzfälle geeignet; so kann eine derartige Gliederbrücke bei Schienenfahrzeugen mit gleisbogenabhängiger Wagenkastensteuerung nicht eingesetzt werden. Bei derartigen Fahrzeugen, beispielsweise dem italienischen Zug "Pendolino" beträgt die Wankbewegung der Fahrzeuge bis zu 8 °. Das heißt, daß bei zwei unmittelbar miteinander gekuppelten Fahrzeugen eines Zuges sich das eine Fahrzeug gegenüber dem anderen Fahrzeug um bis zu 8 ° neigen kann.The invention relates to a link bridge of a separable transition between vehicles articulated to one another, in particular rail vehicles
A separable transition with a link bridge is known for example from EP-PS 0 331 121. However, the link bridge shown there is not suitable for all applications; such a link bridge cannot be used in rail vehicles with railroad body control. With such vehicles, for example the Italian train "Pendolino", the rolling movement of the vehicles is up to 8 °. This means that when two vehicles of a train are coupled directly to one another, one vehicle can tilt up to 8 ° with respect to the other vehicle.

Bekannte Gliederbrücken von trennbaren Übergängen sind jedoch nur in der Lage, Wankbewegungen bis zu 2 ° nachzugeben. Alles was darüber hinaus geht, führt zur Zerstörung der Gliederbrücke.
Eine Gliederbrücke eines trennbaren Überganges zwischen zwei gelenkig miteinander verbundenen Fahrzeugen, die Wankbewegungen bis zu 8 ° nachgeben kann, zeichnet sich erfindungsgemäß dadurch aus, daß die Gliederbrücke relativ zur Längsachse des Fahrzeugs drehbar mit den Fahrzeugen verbunden ist. Hierbei sind die Glieder der Gliederbrücke, die ein- oder zweiteilig ausgebildet sein kann, in parallel zur Fahrzeug-Längsachse verlaufenden U-förmig ausgebildeten Rahmenträgern gelagert, wobei das letzte Glied der Gliederbrücke (Endglied) durch eine elastisch nachgiebige Lagerung an dem Rahmenträger angelenkt ist. Dieses Endglied ist Teil der Verbindung zu dem jeweiligen Fahrzeug. Eine elastisch nachgiebige Lagerung zwischen Endglied und Rahmenträger hat darüber hinaus den Vorteil, daß die Gliederbrücke das Bestreben hat, sich selbst in die Ausgangslage zurückzustellen.Known link bridges of separable transitions, however, are only capable of yielding roll movements of up to 2 °. Anything beyond that will destroy the link bridge.
A link bridge of a separable transition between two articulated vehicles, which can give way to roll movements of up to 8 °, is characterized according to the invention in that the link bridge is rotatably connected to the vehicles relative to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle. The links of the link bridge, which can be made in one or two parts, are mounted in U-shaped frame supports that run parallel to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle, the last link of the link bridge (end link) being articulated on the frame support by an elastically flexible bearing. This end link is part of the connection to the respective vehicle. An elastically resilient mounting between the end link and frame girder also has the advantage that the link bridge strives to reset itself to the starting position.

Die Lagerung umfaßt im einzelnen einen von dem Rahmenträger gehaltenen und das Endglied durchragenden Bolzen, wobei das Endglied durch ein elastisches Element gegenüber dem Bolzen abgestützt ist. Im einzelnen ist zwischen dem Bolzen und dem elastischen Element radial eine starre Traghülse, beispielsweise aus Metall, vorgesehen, wobei die Traghülse und korrespondierend hierzu das elastische Element ballig ausgebildet sind. Zur Abstützung des Endgliedes gegenüber dem Bolzen ist das elastische Element mit einem starren Mantel versehen, der korrespondierend zu dem elastischen Element ebenfalls ballig ausgebildet ist. Durch die ballige Ausbildung der Traghülse und des elastischen Elements und korrespondierend hierzu des Mantels, wird der Mantel von dem elastischen Element getragen; mit dem Mantel ist das Endglied verbunden. Um die Verdrehbarkeit der ballig ausgebildeten Traghülse gegenüber dem Bolzen zu gewährleisten, ist zwischen der Traghülse und dem Bolzen eine weitere Hülse vorgesehen, die durch den Bolzen eingespannt ist; zwischen der Hülse und der Traghülse befindet sich ein minimaler Abstand, um die Verdrehung der Traghülse gegenüber der Hülse zu ermöglichen.The mounting comprises in particular a bolt held by the frame support and projecting through the end member, the end member being supported by an elastic element relative to the bolt. In particular, a rigid support sleeve, for example made of metal, is provided radially between the bolt and the elastic element, the support sleeve and correspondingly the elastic element being spherical. To support the end member with respect to the bolt, the elastic element is provided with a rigid jacket, which is also spherical, corresponding to the elastic element. Due to the spherical design of the support sleeve and the elastic element and corresponding to the jacket, the jacket is carried by the elastic element; the end member is connected to the jacket. In order to ensure the rotatability of the spherical support sleeve relative to the bolt, a further sleeve is provided between the support sleeve and the bolt, which is clamped by the bolt; there is a minimal distance between the sleeve and the support sleeve, to allow the rotation of the support sleeve relative to the sleeve.

Um zu gewährleisten, daß das Endglied relativ zum Rahmenträger verdrehbar ist, ist die starre Traghülse durch in dem Rahmenträger angeordnete Abstandshülsen mit Abstand zu dem Rahmenträger gehalten. D.h., es besteht ein vertikaler Abstand zwischen den horizontalen Schenkeln des Rahmenträgers und dem Endglied.In order to ensure that the end member can be rotated relative to the frame support, the rigid support sleeve is held at a distance from the frame support by spacer sleeves arranged in the frame support. That is, there is a vertical distance between the horizontal legs of the frame beam and the end member.

Um zu verhindern, daß die Glieder der Gliederbrücke während der Verdrehung, hervorgerufen durch eine Wankbewegung der Fahrzeuge, in dem Rahmenträger verkanten, sind die Glieder in dem Rahmenträger vertikal beweglich gelagert. Die Lagerung umfaßt hierbei einen das Glied durchragenden Bolzen, wobei das Glied, das mit vertikalem Spiel zum Rahmenträger gelagert ist, durch ein federndes Element in der Mittellage gehalten wird. Hierbei ist der Bolzen endseitig jeweils mit einer Buchse mit einem horizontal verlaufenden Bund versehen, auf dem sich das Glied der Gliederbrücke abstützt. Mit seinem anderen Ende liegt die Buchse, ebenso wie die Stirnseite des Bolzens an dem horizontalen Schenkel des Rahmenträgers an. Zwischen den Buchsen ist als federndes Element eine Feder angeordnet. Durch die Anordnung einer Feder zwischen den beiden Buchsen wird erreicht, daß das einzelne Glied der Gliederbrücke nach einer vertikalen Verschiebung in seine Ausgangslage zurückgestellt wird.In order to prevent the links of the link bridge from jamming in the frame carrier during the rotation, caused by a rolling movement of the vehicles, the links in the frame carrier are mounted such that they can move vertically. The bearing here comprises a bolt projecting through the link, the link, which is supported with vertical play relative to the frame support, being held in the central position by a resilient element. Here, the bolt is provided at the end with a bushing with a horizontally extending collar on which the link of the link bridge is supported. With its other end, the socket, like the end face of the bolt, lies against the horizontal leg of the frame support. A spring is arranged as a resilient element between the bushings. The arrangement of a spring between the two bushes ensures that the individual link of the link bridge is returned to its starting position after a vertical displacement.

Das Endglied, das nicht nur Teil der Gliederbrücke ist, sondern auch gleichzeitig ein Teil der Verbindung zwischen Gliederbrücke und Fahrzeug bildet, weist zur Erhöhung der Stabilität der Verbindung eine Traverse auf. Diese Traverse ist durch Scharniere mit einem Schlitten verbunden. Die Beweglichkeit des Schlittens parallel zur Fahrzeug-Längsachse ist dadurch gewährleistet, daß der Schlitten auf einer Führungsschiene beweglich geführt ist. Die Führungsschiene ist am Fahrzeug befestigt.The end link, which is not only part of the link bridge, but also forms part of the connection between the link bridge and the vehicle, has a crossbar to increase the stability of the connection. This crossbar is connected to a slide by hinges. The mobility of the slide parallel to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle is ensured by the fact that the slide is movably guided on a guide rail. The guide rail is attached to the vehicle.

Das bedeutet, daß während der Fahrbewegung auftretende größere horizontale Bewegungen zwischen den einzelnen Fahrzeugen durch den auf der Führungsschiene beweglich geführten Schlitten aufgenommen werden, es wird also eine Stauchung oder eine Längung der Gliederbrücke durch die Anordnung des Schlittens zwischen Gliederbrücke und Fahrzeug vermieden. Darüber hinaus können sich die einzelnen Glieder der Gliederbrücke auch horizontal gegeneinander verschieben, da sie mit Spiel in den Rahmenträgern gelagert sind.This means that larger horizontal movements between the individual vehicles occurring during the travel movement are absorbed by the slide which is movably guided on the guide rail, so that a compression or elongation of the link bridge is avoided by the arrangement of the slide between the link bridge and the vehicle. In addition, the individual links of the link bridge can also move horizontally against each other, since they are supported with play in the frame girders.

Um sicherzustellen, daß der Schlitten in seine Ausgangslage zurückgestellt wird, ist der Schlitten durch ein federndes Element, z.B. eine Blattfeder, in seiner Ausgangsstellung gehalten. Die Blattfeder stützt sich hierbei einerseits am Fahrzeug und andererseits am Schlitten ab.

Die insgesamt mit 1 bezeichnete Gliederbrücke ist zwischen den beiden durch Linien angedeuteten Eisenbahnwagen 11 und 12 angeordnet. Die Gliederbrücke besteht aus den beiden U-förmig ausgebildeten Rahmenträgern 4, die die Trittglieder 2, die Endglieder 8 und die zwischen den Trittgliedern gelagerten Zwischenglieder 5 aufnehmen.The link bridge, designated as a whole by 1, is arranged between the two railway carriages 11 and 12 indicated by lines. The link bridge consists of the two U-shaped frame girders 4 which receive the tread members 2, the end members 8 and the intermediate members 5 mounted between the tread members.

Zur Lagerung der Gliederbrücke 1 sind Führungsschienen 13 vorgesehen, die an den Wagen 11, 12 befestigt sind.For mounting the link bridge 1 guide rails 13 are provided which are attached to the carriage 11, 12.

Zur Befestigung der Gliederbrücke 1 an dem Wagen 11 bzw. 12 ist jeweils ein Schlitten 6 vorgesehen, der längsbeweglich auf den Führungsschienen 13 gelagert ist. Der Schlitten 6 besitzt die Blattfeder 10, die sich an der Stirnseite des Wagens 11 bzw. 12 abstützt. An dem Schlitten 6 befindet sich die Schlittenrolle 6a, die zur Führung des Schlittens 6 an einem vertikal nach unten gerichteten Schenkel 13a der Führungsschiene 13 entlangrollt. Um die vertikale Beweglichkeit des Schlittens 6 zu begrenzen, ist an dem Schlitten 6 eine Scheibe 6b unterhalb der Schlittenrolle 6a angeordnet, die die Führungsschiene 13 untergreift (Fig. 3). Der Schlitten 6 ist durch Scharniere 7 bzw. 14 mit der in dem Endglied 8 gelagerten Traverse 9 verbunden. Das Scharnier 7 ist hierbei derart ausgebildet, daß der Scharnierbolzen 7a, der in die Bohrung 6c des Schlittens 6 greift, zur Lösbarkeit vom Schlitten, im Scharnier verschieblich angeordnet ist. Durch das Scharnier 14 wird bei der hier dargestellten einteiligen Gliederbrücke bei der Entkoppelung die Gliederbrücke auf die Stirnseite des Wagens 12 zugeschwenkt (Fig. 1, Fig. 3).To attach the link bridge 1 to the carriage 11 or 12, a slide 6 is provided, which is mounted on the guide rails 13 so as to be longitudinally movable. The carriage 6 has the leaf spring 10, which is supported on the end face of the carriage 11 or 12. On the carriage 6 is the carriage roller 6a, which rolls to guide the carriage 6 along a vertically downward leg 13a of the guide rail 13. In order to limit the vertical mobility of the slide 6, a disc 6b is arranged on the slide 6 below the slide roller 6a, which engages under the guide rail 13 (FIG. 3). The carriage 6 is connected by hinges 7 and 14 to the cross member 9 mounted in the end member 8. The hinge 7 is designed in such a way that the hinge pin 7a, which engages in the bore 6c of the slide 6, is arranged displaceably in the hinge for detachability from the slide. In the one-part link bridge shown here, the link bridge is pivoted towards the front side of the carriage 12 by the hinge 14 during decoupling (FIG. 1, FIG. 3).

Der Schlitten wird überdeckt durch die Rampe 15, die mit ihrem einen Ende am Wagen 11 bzw. 12 befestigt ist und mit ihrem anderen Ende verschieblich auf der Gliederbrücke aufliegt (Fig. 3).The carriage is covered by the ramp 15, which is attached at one end to the carriage 11 or 12 and with its other end rests displaceably on the link bridge (Fig. 3).

Die elastisch nachgiebige Lagerung 16 des Endgliedes 8 in dem U-förmig ausgebildeten Rahmenträger 4 ist in Fig. 4 dargestellt. Das Endglied 8, als Teil der Verbindung mit dem jeweiligen Fahrzeug, besitzt die Schenkel 8a. Mit diesen Schenkeln 8a stützt sich das Endglied 8 auf dem Mantel 20 ab, der das ballig ausgebildete elastische Element 18 umfaßt. Dieses ballig ausgebildete Element 18 lagert auf einer ebenfalls ballig ausgebildeten Traghülse 19, die durch die Hülse 19a mit einem die horizontalen Schenkel 4a des Rahmenträgers 4 durchragenden Bolzen 17 in Verbindung steht.The elastically flexible mounting 16 of the end member 8 in the U-shaped frame support 4 is shown in FIG. 4. The end member 8, as part of the connection to the respective vehicle, has the legs 8a. With these legs 8a, the end member 8 is supported on the jacket 20, which comprises the spherical elastic element 18. This spherical element 18 is supported on a likewise spherical support sleeve 19, which is connected by the sleeve 19a to a bolt 17 projecting through the horizontal leg 4a of the frame support 4.

Durch den Bolzen 17 wird die Hülse 19a eingespannt, die mit Spiel von der Traghülse 19 umgeben ist, um eine Verdrehung der Traghülse 19 und mithin des Trittgliedes 8 zu gewährleisten.Through the bolt 17, the sleeve 19a is clamped, which is surrounded with play by the support sleeve 19 in order to ensure rotation of the support sleeve 19 and therefore of the tread member 8.

Die Lagerung der Traghülse 19 in dem Rahmenträger 4 erfolgt durch die beiden Abstandshülsen 21. Die Abstandshülsen 21 weisen einen Abstand (Pfeil 27) zur Traghülse 19 auf, um eine Verdrehung der Traghülse 19 gegenüber den Abstandshülsen 21 zu ermöglichen. Die Abstandshülsen 21 weisen darüber hinaus einen horizontalen Bund 21a auf, der an den horizontalen Schenkeln 4a des Rahmenträgers 4 anliegt. Durch diese Lagerung ist es möglich, das Endglied 8 in Richtung des Pfeiles x relativ zum Rahmenträger 4 zu bewegen, wobei sich die maximale Verschwenkbarkeit des Endgliedes 8 relativ zum Rahmenträger 4 im wesentlichen durch den Abstand 27 zwischen der Stirnseite des Schenkels 8a und der Traghülse 19 bestimmt.The support sleeve 19 is supported in the frame support 4 by the two spacer sleeves 21. The spacer sleeves 21 are at a distance (arrow 27) from the support sleeve 19 in order to enable the support sleeve 19 to be rotated relative to the spacer sleeves 21. The spacer sleeves 21 also have a horizontal collar 21a which abuts the horizontal legs 4a of the frame support 4. This mounting makes it possible to move the end member 8 in the direction of the arrow x relative to the frame support 4, the maximum pivotability of the end member 8 relative to the frame support 4 essentially being determined by the distance 27 between the end face of the leg 8a and the support sleeve 19 certainly.

Um zu gewährleisten, daß die die Gliederbrücke bildenden Trittglieder 2 und Zwischenglieder 5, die durch die Trittglieder gehalten werden, einer Bewegung des Endgliedes in Richtung des Pfeiles x folgen können, sind die Glieder 2 der Gliederbrücke 1 ebenfalls vertikal verschieblich in dem Rahmenträger 4 gelagert (Lagerung 22). Hierbei weist das Glied 2 der Gliederbrücke 1 den Schenkel 2a auf, der auf einem horizontalen Bund 25a der Buchse 25 lagert. Zwischen den beiden Buchsen 25, die ebenso wie die die Buchsen 25 durchragenden Bolzen 23 mit ihrer Stirnseite an der Innenseite der horizontalen Schenkel 4a des Rahmenträgers 4 lagern, befindet sich die Feder 24, die dafür sorgt, daß das Glied 2 in einer Mittellage zu den horizontalen Schenkeln 4a des Rahmenträgers 4 gehalten wird.In order to ensure that the step links 2 and intermediate links 5, which are held by the step links, can follow a movement of the end link in the direction of the arrow x, the links 2 of the link bridge 1 are also vertically displaceably mounted in the frame support 4 ( Storage 22). In this case, the link 2 of the link bridge 1 has the leg 2a, which is supported on a horizontal collar 25a of the bush 25. Between the two bushes 25, which, like the bolts 23 projecting through the bushes 25, have their end faces on the inside of the horizontal legs 4a of the frame support 4, there is the spring 24, which ensures that the link 2 is in a central position with respect to the horizontal legs 4a of the frame support 4 is held.

Die vertikale Verschieblichkeit des Gliedes 2 zwischen den horizontalen Schenkeln 4a des Rahmenträgers 4 bestimmt sich durch den Abstand 26 zwischen der Oberkante des Gliedes 2 und dem Schenkel 4a.The vertical displaceability of the link 2 between the horizontal legs 4a of the frame support 4 is determined by the distance 26 between the upper edge of the link 2 and the leg 4a.
