Aus dem Dokument D1:'RAIL BUSINESS REPORT' RAILWAY GAZETTE INTERNATIONAL, Bd.152, 1996, Seiten 17, 19, 21-24, XP000548933 SUTTON, GB sind beispielsweise die folgenden Fahrzeuge bekannt geworden:

  • 1. Ein einstöckiger Triebwagen, dessen Führerstand mit einer Panoramaverglasung versehen ist, die sich bis zum Dach des Fahrzeugs erstreckt (vgl. D1, S.17, beide Abbildungen).
  • 2. Ein doppelstöckiger Triebwagen, bei welchem der Führerstand im Unterstock und der Fahrgastraum im Oberstock jeweils mit einer eigenen Panoramaverglasung versehen sind (vgl. D1, S.21, Fig.3), wobei sich der Oberstock bis Fahrzeugsende erstreckt.
  • Aus der vorstehend skizzierten Anordnung ergibt sich die Aufgabe für die Erfindung, nämlich auch jenen Personen, die im Oberstock eines Doppelstock-Steuerwagens reisen, die Möglichkeit eines freien Ausblicks auf die Strecke zu eröffnen. Zugleich soll gewährleistet sein, dass die im Unterstock bzw. Führerstand weilenden Personen vom Oberstock her nicht gefährdet werden können. Schließlich soll die Anordnung ohne aufwendige Mittel und preisgünstig realisierbar sein.For example, the following vehicles have become known from document D1: 'RAIL BUSINESS REPORT' RAILWAY GAZETTE INTERNATIONAL, Vol. 152, 1996, pages 17, 19, 21-24, XP000548933 SUTTON, GB:
  • 1. A one-story railcar, the driver's cab is provided with panoramic glazing that extends to the roof of the vehicle (see D1, p.17, both pictures).
  • 2. A two-story railcar, in which the driver's cab in the lower floor and the passenger compartment in the upper floor are each provided with their own panoramic glazing (cf. D1, p.21, Fig.3), the upper floor extending to the end of the vehicle.
  • The task for the invention arises from the arrangement outlined above, namely to provide those persons who travel on the upper floor of a double-decker control car with the possibility of a clear view of the route. At the same time, it should be ensured that people in the lower floor or driver's cab cannot be endangered from the upper floor. Finally, the arrangement should be realizable without expensive resources.

    Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. This task is characterized by the features of the claim 1 solved.

    Erfindungsgemäß ist insbesondere vorgesehen, dass das geschlossene Ende des Oberstocks als Verglasung ausgestaltet ist, die sich vom Fußboden des Oberstocks bis zum Dach und über einen Abschnitt der Breite des Fahrzeugs erstreckt und notwendigerweise eine Sicherungseinrichtung aufweist, die im unteren Bereich oder im Führerstand befindliche Personen vor dem Herabfallen von Personen oder Gegenständen aus dem Oberstock schützt.According to the invention it is particularly provided that the closed end of the upper floor as Glazing is designed, which extends from the floor of the upper floor to the roof and extends over a portion of the width of the vehicle and necessarily a safety device has in the lower area or in the cab People from falling people or objects from the upper floor protects.

    Eine solche Verglasung erstreckt sich vom Fußboden des Oberstocks bis zum Dach des Fahrzeugs und bietet auch jenen Personen noch eine Möglichkeit des Durchblicks, die nicht unmittelbar vor der offenen Stirnwand des Oberstocks Platz gefunden haben. Die Verglasung ist zweckmäßig vor allem im unteren Bereich mit auffälligen Streifen oder Symbolen versehen, damit sie auch tatsächlich erkannt werden kann.Such glazing extends from the floor of the upper floor to Roof of the vehicle and also offers those people an opportunity to see through, not found right in front of the open front wall of the upper floor to have. The glazing is useful especially in the lower area with striking Add stripes or symbols so that it can actually be recognized.

    In einem weitergehenden Falle ist als Sicherungseinrichtung eine Balustrade vorgesehen, die sich vom Fußboden des Oberstocks aus über einen Abschnitt von der lichten Höhe des Oberstocks erstreckt. Eine derartige Balustrade begrenzt eine Galerie, die den im Oberstock reisenden Personen das Gefühl vermittelt, von einem Balkon aus auf die vor ihnen liegende Strecke blicken zu können. Zusätzlich ist vorgesehen, dass am oberen Rand der Balustrade eine weitere Verglasung vorgesehen ist, die sich zumindest über einen Abschnitt der lichten Höhe erstreckt, welche zwischen dem oberen Rand der Balustrade und dem Dach des Fahrzeugs offen steht.In a further case, a balustrade is provided as a safety device, which extends from the floor of the upper floor over a section of the clear height of the upper floor. Such a balustrade delimits a gallery that People traveling on the upper floor convey the feeling from a balcony to the front to be able to see the route lying to them. It is also provided that at the top Another glazing is provided at the edge of the balustrade, which at least over a section of the clear height that extends between the top of the balustrade and the roof of the vehicle is open.

    Nach einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltungsmöglichkeit ist vorgesehen, dass die Sicherungseinrichtung zu beiden Seiten der Fahrzeugmitte angeordnet ist. Eine derartige Anordnung bietet die Möglichkeit, zusätzliche Abgänge zum Unterstock neben einer oder beiden Seitenwänden innerhalb des Fahrzeugs anzuordnen. Dabei entsteht eine Art von Kanzel mit voller Stehhöhe in der Fahrzeugmitte, wie sie von der offenen Stirnwand gebildet wird. In wiederum anderen Fällen ist vorgesehen, dass sich die offene Stirnwand zu einer der beiden Seiten von der Fahrzeugmitte her bis zur Seitenwand des Steuerwagens erstrecken kann.According to a further advantageous embodiment, it is provided that the Safety device is arranged on both sides of the vehicle center. Such Arrangement offers the possibility of additional exits to the lower floor next to one or to arrange both side walls within the vehicle. This creates a kind of Pulpit with full headroom in the center of the vehicle, as formed by the open front wall becomes. In still other cases, it is provided that the open end wall closes one of the two sides from the center of the vehicle to the side wall of the control car can extend.

    Der Blickwinkel der Personen, die vor der offenen Stirnwand sitzen wird um so größer, je weiter diese offene Stirnwand vom Führerstand entfernt ist. Folglich ist in einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung vorgesehen, zwischen dem Führerstand und der offenen Stirnwand noch einen Einstiegsbereich anzuordnen. Dazu kann zusätzlich auch noch eine Sitzgruppe vorgesehen sein, die sich unmittelbar an den Führerstand selbst anschließt.The point of view of the people sitting in front of the open front wall is the bigger, ever further this open bulkhead is away from the cab. Consequently, another one advantageous embodiment provided between the cab and the open End wall to arrange an entry area. You can also add one Seating group should be provided, which connects directly to the cab itself.

    Je größer die Verglasung des Führerstandes desto mehr profitieren diejenigen Reisenden davon, die sich in der Nähe des Führerstandes befinden. Deshalb ist nach einer weitergehenden Ausgestaltungmöglichkeit auch vorgesehen, dass das vordere Ende des Steuerwagens mit einer Panoramaverglasung versehen ist. Die neuzeitlichen Technologien der Glasherstellung machen eine solche Verglasung ohne weiteres möglich. The larger the glazing of the driver's cab, the more those travelers benefit of which are located near the driver's cab. That is why it is after a further Design option also provided that the front end of the control car is equipped with panoramic glazing. Modern technologies glass manufacture makes such glazing possible without further ado.

    Zusätzlich kann zwischen dem Führerstand und der offenen Stirnwand noch eine kleinere Trennwand vorgesehen sein, welche den Fahrzeugführer im Rücken umgibt, um ihm so ein gewisses Gefühl der Abgeschlossenheit gegenüber dem Fahrgastraum des Fahrzeugs zu vermitteln.In addition, there can be a smaller one between the driver's cab and the open bulkhead Partition wall is provided, which surrounds the driver in the back, so as to a certain feeling of isolation from the passenger compartment of the vehicle to convey.

    Nachfolgend wird die Erfindung an einem Ausführungsbeispiel näher beschrieben. Es zeigen in verkleinerten Maßstäben jeweils die

    • Fig. 1 einen Längsschnitt durch einen doppelstöckigen Eisenbahn-Steuerwagen entlang der Linie I - I der Fig. 3,
    • Fig. 2 einen horizontalen Schnitt durch einen Steuerwagen längs der Linie II - II der Fig. 1 und
    • Fig. 3 einen Querschnitt durch einen Doppelstock-Steuerwagen entlang der Linie III - III der Fig. 2 in einem etwas vergrößerten Maßstab.
    The invention is described in more detail below using an exemplary embodiment. They show the on a reduced scale
    • 1 shows a longitudinal section through a double-decker railway control car along the line I - I of FIG. 3,
    • Fig. 2 shows a horizontal section through a control car along the line II - II of Fig. 1 and
    • Fig. 3 shows a cross section through a double-deck control car along the line III - III of Fig. 2 on a slightly enlarged scale.

    Der doppelstöckige Eisenbahn-Steuerwagen 1 der Figur 1 weist einen Oberstock 2 und einen Unterstock 3 auf, die durch einen Fußboden 4 voneinander getrennt sind und jeweils mit Bestuhlungen 5 versehen sind. Am vorderen Ende 6 des Steuerwagens 1 ist ein Führerstand 7 angeordnet. Der Führerstand 7 befindet sich in der Fahrzeugmitte 8. Der Führerstand 7 befindet sich im unteren Bereich 9 des Steuerwagens 1, und ist oberhalb des Fahrwerks 10 eingerichtet.The two-story railway control car 1 of Figure 1 has an upper floor 2 and a lower floor 3, which are separated by a floor 4 and each with 5 seats. At the front end 6 of the control car 1 is a Driver's cab 7 arranged. The driver's cab 7 is located in the middle of the vehicle 8. The Driver's cab 7 is located in the lower area 9 of the control car 1, and is above of the chassis 10 set up.

    Der Oberstock 2 ist über eine Treppe 11 von einem Einstiegsbereich 12 am entgegengesetzten Ende des Steuerwagens 1 her erreichbar. Das vordere, zum Führerstand 7 hinweisende Ende des Oberstocks 2 ist als offene Stirnwand 13 ausgebildet. Zum Schutze vor herabfallenden Personen oder Gegenständen ist diese offene Stirnwand 13 mit einer Sicherheitseinrichtung 14 versehen. Im einfachsten Falle besteht die Sicherheitseinrichtung 14 aus einer Verglasung (nicht gezeigt). Eine solche Verglasung erstreckt sich vom Fußboden 4 des Oberstocks 2 bis zum Dach 15. The upper floor 2 is via a staircase 11 from an entry area 12 on the opposite End of the control car 1 reachable here. The front, pointing towards the driver's cab 7 The end of the upper floor 2 is designed as an open end wall 13. For protection in front of falling people or objects, this open end wall 13 is with a Security device 14 provided. In the simplest case, the safety device exists 14 from a glazing (not shown). Such glazing extends from Floor 4 of the upper floor 2 up to the roof 15.

    Im vorliegenden Falle ist an Stelle einer Verglasung 15 eine Balustrade 16 vorgesehen, die sich vom Fußboden 4 her über einen Abschnitt der lichten Höhe des Oberstocks zwischen dem Fußboden 4 und dem Dach 15 erstreckt. Der obere Rand 17 der Balustrade 16 ist mit einer zusätzlichen Verglasung 18 von geringer Höhe versehen. In diesem Beispiel ist der Stirnwandbereich 13 oberhalb der zusätzlichen Verglasung 18 bis unter das Dach 15 völlig offen.In the present case, a balustrade 16 is provided instead of a glazing 15, which between the floor 4 over a section of the clear height of the top floor the floor 4 and the roof 15 extends. The top edge 17 of the balustrade 16 is provided with additional glazing 18 of low height. In this example is the end wall area 13 above the additional glazing 18 to below that Roof 15 completely open.

    Wie in der Figur 2 erkennbar, ist in Fahrtrichtung 19 gesehen, die Balustrade 16 rechts der Fahrzeugmitte 8 angeordnet. Der obere Rand 17 der Balustrade kann auch verbreitert sein, sodaß sich der Eindruck eines Balkons ergibt.As can be seen in FIG. 2, the balustrade 16 is seen on the right in the direction of travel 19 the vehicle center 8 arranged. The upper edge 17 of the balustrade can also be widened be so that there is the impression of a balcony.

    Im unteren Bereich 9 sind zwischen dem Führerstand 7 und der offenen Stirnwand 13 noch ein weiterer Einstiegsbereich 20 und eine Sitzgruppe 21 angeordnet. Zusätzlich ist eine Zwischenwand 22 vorgesehen, die den Führerstand 7 von den übrigen Bereichen des Steuerwagens 1 abtrennt. Die zusätzliche Trennwand 22 kann recht unterschiedlich ausgestaltet sein, sie kann entweder durchsichtig oder auf Abschnitten undurchsichtig sein und ebensogut kann sie sich über die gesamte Breite des Steuerwagens 1 oder auch nur über einen Abschnitt der Breite erstrecken.In the lower area 9 are between the driver's cab 7 and the open end wall 13 yet another entry area 20 and a seating group 21 arranged. In addition is an intermediate wall 22 is provided which separates the driver's cab 7 from the other areas of the control car 1. The additional partition 22 can be quite different be designed, it can either be transparent or opaque on sections and can be just as well over the entire width of the control car 1 or only extend over a section of the width.

    Schließlich ist eine Panoramaverglasung 23 vorgesehen, die das vordere Ende 6 des Steuerwagens 1 abschließt.Finally, a panoramic glazing 23 is provided, which the front end 6 of the Control car 1 completes.

    An der Figur 3 ist weiterhin bemerkenswert, dass die Seitenwände 24 stark gekrümmt sind, wodurch der Querschnitt III - III des Wagenkastens eine angenähert eliptische Form annimmt. Der Wagenkasten ist beispielsweise aus Modulelementen - das sind vorgefertigte Bauteile - aufgebaut, die an den Stellen 25 aneinandergefügt sind. So besteht das Dach 15 aus den beiden modularen Bauteilen 26 und die beiden Seitenwände 24 aus den modularen Bauteilen 27 die an die Wanne 28 angeschlossen sind, welche das Fahrzeugteil, d.h. den Boden des Steuerwagens 1 bilden.It is also noteworthy in FIG. 3 that the side walls 24 are strongly curved are, which makes the cross-section III - III of the car body an approximately elliptical shape accepts. For example, the car body is made of modular elements - these are prefabricated Components - built up, which are joined together at points 25. That's how it is Roof 15 from the two modular components 26 and the two side walls 24 from the modular components 27 which are connected to the tub 28, which the vehicle part, i.e. form the bottom of the control car 1.

    Vorteile der vorstehenden Konfiguration ergeben sich beispielsweise daraus, dass die Fenster 29 im Ober- 2 und im Unterstock 3 dieselbe Krümmung haben können. Außerdem ist die Wanne 28 an den Stellen 30 des Übergangs vom Boden zur Seitenwand 24 breiter, was den im Unterstock 3 außen sitzenden Fahrgästen eine größere Beinfreiheit beschert.Advantages of the above configuration result, for example, from the fact that the Window 29 in the upper 2 and in the lower floor 3 can have the same curvature. Moreover the tub 28 is wider at the points 30 of the transition from the floor to the side wall 24, which gives the passengers sitting outside in the lower floor 3 greater legroom.

    Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungsmöglichkeiten ergeben sich aus den einzelnen Unteransprüchen. Further advantageous design options result from the individual subclaims.
