Definitions

  • the invention relates to a rail vehicle according to the preamble of the first Claim.
  • a rail vehicle of the generic type is known from US Pat. No. 3,212,460 known in which the car body arranged over two on the chassis Coupling element units is supported on the chassis. Is located between the coupling element units and the car body a sliding adapter with two mutually displaceable adapter links, between those for damping relative movements between car body and chassis a friction pairing with comparatively there is high friction.
  • a sliding adapter with two mutually displaceable adapter links between those for damping relative movements between car body and chassis a friction pairing with comparatively there is high friction.
  • Relieving acting transverse forces is one of the adapter links arranged on a rocker that can be pivoted about a horizontal axis, which rests on the coupling element unit.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object to provide a generic rail vehicle, which, with less construction work, improves noise behavior guaranteed.
  • a rail vehicle takes one in Coupling element unit integrated sliding adapter under permissible Operating conditions occurring lateral or rotational movements between the body and the chassis frame occur.
  • This can Sliding adapters are formed with very little friction and therefore has one high reliability and extensive freedom from maintenance. A jam-free Compensation for the pushing movements that occur is thus ensured.
  • the sliding adapter does not have a translational degree of freedom for two coinciding axes and is mounted so that its displacement plane parallel to the plane that is either the floor of the car body or the Chassis frame. This allows the spring action Element of the coupling element unit be a component that is only in one direction must be movable, as is the case with hydropneumatic actuators.
  • the sliding adapter is, for example, as Ball roller table designed to low the friction between the adapter members hold and thus the load on the spring element transverse to its direction of suspension to minimize. So that driving noises of the drive are not damped over the Coupling element units are transferred to the car body, is at least one the mutually displaceable adapter members of the sliding adapter Provide noise insulation.
  • this adapter link can have two plates have that are connected to each other only via an insulation layer.
  • This Insulation layer is parallel to the sliding plane of the sliding adapter and can be used as Solid disc, from several discs arranged side by side or in particular be designed as an annular disc. To avoid the friction of the sliding adapter resulting forces without the risk of displacement between these plates to be able to absorb, the insulation layer with its facing the panels End faces in appropriately adapted recesses in these plates.
  • the slide adapter assigned to a car can not only be used during the Run of the rail vehicle occurring transverse movements within the as Compensate coupling element units serving vertical supports, they could can also be used, for example, to replace the car body Drive when stopping at a platform near the edge of the platform push in to close the gap between the body and the edge of the platform reduce. It may also be useful to have a between the adapter members optionally controllable locking device to provide free mobility depending on the operating conditions at least partially to reduce or completely to prevent.
  • the spring element inserted into the respective coupling element unit can be passive and can be designed, for example, as a steel coil spring or solid rubber spring.
  • the spring element is preferably actively controllable and in particular as hydropneumatically controlled hydraulic cylinder designed that only in one direction is variable in length.
  • Coupling element unit with a ball joint type Joint connector equipped. This hinge connector is preferably between the spring element and the sliding adapter installed and has only one joint.
  • a vehicle body 1 is of a vehicle, in particular a rail vehicle schematically indicated, under the bottom wall 2 at least one drive is arranged.
  • the drive has at least one axle or two wheels 3, in the present case two axles or four wheels 3.
  • the wheels 3 are as rail wheels educated.
  • a drive frame 4 is supported in the direction of travel of the drive extending longitudinal beams 5, which with each other via at least one cross member 6 are connected by means of primary springs 7 on wheel bearing elements 8 of the wheels 3 and thus couples the wheels 3 to one another in a stable manner.
  • the coupling element unit consists of an actuator 9 acting as a spring element, an articulated connector 10 which can be tilted in all directions and a sliding connector 11, which are arranged mechanically in series in the direction of action of the actuator 9.
  • the joint connector 10 can be a cross or Ball joint, as a rubber-elastic joint or in the manner of a spring bar be designed to only swivel movements with limited swivel deflection to be able to execute in all directions.
  • the sliding connector 11 only has translational degrees of freedom in a plane that is parallel to the bottom wall 2 of the Car body 1 is located.
  • the displaceability in one plane that is not tied to any direction this sliding connector is limited to predetermined values.
  • the assignment of the individual components 9, 10, 11 of the connecting device has the effect that only the actuator distance differences between the bogie 4 and the car body 1 can compensate that the hinge connector 10 only direction-independent Can compensate for tilting movements and that the sliding connector 11 is only transverse to Compensate the adjustment direction or movements directed towards its adjusting axis can. It is independent of the principle in which order the Components 9, 10, 11 are joined together when the two ends are in each case Components on the one hand on the chassis 4 and on the other hand on the car body 1 are fixed.

  • the trained as a ball joint Hinged connector 10 only allows tilting movements between those by the Side members 5 and the bottom wall 2 formed levels occur.
  • the primary sliding member 11.1 with the second Swivel member 10.2 of the articulated connector 10 and its secondary sliding member 11.2 in is firmly connected to the bottom wall 2 of the car body 1.
  • At least one sliding member 11.1 consists of two plates lying parallel to one another 11.3 and 11.4, which consist of dimensionally stable material, in particular metal and between which an insulation layer 11.5 is arranged.
  • the plates 11.3 and 11.4 are made of elastic, vibration-damping material Insulation layer firmly connected.
  • the insulation layer 11.5 is therefore parallel to the sliding plane of the sliding adapter 11.
  • the insulation layer 11.5 formed as a ring, the same axis with the adjustment axis of the actuator 9 and the joint connector 10 is arranged.
  • Receiving wells 12 incorporated the depth of which is significant in the axial direction is less than the thickness of the insulation layer 11.5.
  • the actuator 9 can replace spring elements in this structure, which as Secondary suspension act.
  • it is particularly operated as a hydropneumatic Cylinder formed and so does not only allow a height compensation between Car body and bogie frame too, but can also have spring properties have, which otherwise have coil springs, air springs or the like.
  • the power coupling between the body and the bogie to support longitudinal and Shear forces can conventionally z. B. on handlebars, pivot or Lemniscate coupling elements or elastic buffer or spring elements.
