Abstract

The waiting station (1) designed to be set on a sidewalk (2) at the immediate edge of a street or a track comprises a protective wall (29) on its front lateral surface. Access to the station is gained through its lateral surfaces or through the rear. Its interior space is divided into a long-term waiting area (13) preceded by a short-term waiting area (14). This station comprises a passageway for boarding-disembarking that opens on the track side onto a threshold (22) marking the position of an entry door of the vehicle when it is stopped. The threshold (22) is surmounted by a canopy (25) extending from the roof (9) of the station and overhanging the entryway of the vehicle to form a protected access path to the vehicle. This invention is of interest to those responsible for urban planning and to manufacturers of urban equipment and public transportation vehicles.

Description

La présente invention se rapporte à une station d'attente et d'embarquement-débarquement pour transport urbain.The present invention relates to a station waiting and boarding-landing for urban transport.

Les personnes désirant emprunter un véhicule de transport en commun urbain sont contraintes d'attendre à l'un quelconque des différents points d'arrêt de son itinéraire. Certains de ces points d'embarquement et de débarquement ont été aménagés en station d'attente afin d'améliorer le confort des futurs passagers.People wishing to borrow a vehicle urban transit are constrained to wait at any of the different points stopping his route. Some of these points embarkation and disembarkation have been waiting station to improve the comfort of future passengers.

On connaít diverses stations d'attente urbaines prévues dans le circuit des transports urbains de personnes. Celles-ci se présentent en général sous la forme d'un abri de forme parallélépipédique à face avant ouverte offrant une protection contre les intempéries aux voyageurs en situation d'attente. De tels abris ont notamment été divulgués dans les demandes de brevets FR 2.720.431, FR 2.720.432, FR 2.727.444 et FR 2.727.445. Ce type d'abris peut également n'être fermé que sur sa face arrière et sur l'une de ses faces latérales, comme celui décrit dans la demande FR 2.642.879, offrant aux voyageurs en attente une protection plus limitée.Various waiting stations are known planned urban transport routes of people. These are generally presented under the shape of a parallelepiped-shaped shelter on the face open front offering protection against bad weather for travelers in a situation of waiting. Of such shelters were disclosed in particular in Patent applications FR 2,720,431, FR 2,720,432, FR 2,727,444 and FR 2,727,445. This type of shelter can also be closed only on its back side and on one of its lateral faces, like the one described in application FR 2,642,879, offering travelers waiting for more limited protection.

Il peut encore être complètement ouvert sur toutes ses faces, n'offrant ainsi aux voyageurs qu'une très faible protection limitée à un toit. C'est par exemple le cas de l'abri décrit dans la demande de brevet SWANSON GB 631.566A. Cette protection peut être améliorée par la présence, à chacune des deux extrémités latérales de l'abri, d'une cabine téléphonique soutenant l'extrémité du toit et servant de coupe-vent.It can still be completely open on all its faces, thus offering travelers only a very low protection limited to a roof. It is by example the case of the shelter described in the application for SWANSON patent GB 631.566A. This protection can be improved by the presence, at each of the two side ends of the shelter, a cabin phone supporting the end of the roof and serving windbreaker.

Une tendance récente vise à repenser l'infrastructure urbaine et notamment les abribus, non plus isolément, mais de façon complémentaire avec les véhicules urbains correspondants. Ainsi par exemple Madame DEJEAMMES dans son article « L'évolution de l'autobus dans la ville » publié dans la revue « Ingénieurs de l'automobile » n°687, imagine une avancée du trottoir sur la chaussée à l'emplacement de l'arrêt de bus ainsi qu'un ajustement de sa hauteur avec celle du plancher du bus afin de diminuer les problèmes d'accessibilité au bus en raison de l'emmarchement.A recent trend is to rethink urban infrastructure, including bus shelters, no more in isolation, but in a complementary way with the corresponding urban vehicles. For example Mrs DEJEAMMES in her article "The evolution of the bus in the city "published in the journal "Engineers of the automobile" n ° 687, imagine a advanced sidewalk on the pavement at the location of the bus stop and an adjustment of its height with that of the bus floor to reduce the bus accessibility issues due to stepwell.

Certaines stations comportent en plus des sièges ou des bancs pour des attentes plus longues ou pour les voyageurs fatigués ou handicapés. Il s'agit par exemple de la station décrite et représentée dans le brevet FR 2.727.945. Néanmoins elles ne sont pas adaptées aux attentes de longue durée. L'espace intérieur à la station étant restreint, les voyageurs sont contraints à une promiscuité inconfortable et gênante. En effet, les personnes assises en attente et les voyageurs voulant entrer ou sortir des véhicules de transport en commun se gênent mutuellement.Some stations also include seats or benches for longer waits or for tired or disabled travelers. It's about for example the station described and represented in FR 2,727,945. Nevertheless they are not adapted to long-term expectations. Space interior at the resort being restricted, travelers are forced to uncomfortable promiscuity and embarrassing. Indeed, people sitting waiting and travelers wanting to enter or exit vehicles from public transportation interferes with each other.

C'est également le cas de la station divulguée dans le brevet CONLAN US 5.363.608. l'espace intérieur de cette station de petite dimension a été partagé en deux zones d'attente isolées par des parois transparentes. Ces deux zones renferment des équipements volumineux : dans l'une une cabine téléphonique et une boíte aux lettres et dans l'autre un banc et un distributeur de journaux. L'intérieur de la station est fortement encombré et ne peut accueillir que peu de voyageurs, surtout si ceux-ci possèdent également des bagages volumineux, tels que par exemple des valises, sacs ou poussettes.This is also the case of the station disclosed in CONLAN US 5,363,608. space interior of this small-scale station has been shared in two waiting areas isolated by walls transparent. These two zones contain bulky equipment: in one cabin phone and a mailbox and in the other a bench and a newspaper distributor. The interior of the resort is heavily congested and can not accommodate few travelers, especially if they have also voluminous baggage, such as for example suitcases, bags or strollers.

En outre, la station CONLAN ne comprend aucun espace dégagé pour permettre un accès rapide au véhicule de transport en commun, destiné aux voyageurs prêts à embarquer et en attente de courte durée.In addition, the CONLAN station does not include any clear space to allow quick access to public transport vehicle for travelers ready to ship and waiting for short duration.

Le but de l'invention est de fournir une station d'attente et d'embarquement-débarquement dont l'espace intérieur à été optimisé et partagé en une ou plusieurs zones d'attente de longue durée et une zone de transit permettant l'accès rapide au véhicule de transport en commun. Ainsi, le confort et la convivialité sont considérablement accrus et les voyageurs ne se gênent pas les uns les autres.The object of the invention is to provide a waiting and boarding-disembarking station the interior space has been optimized and shared in one or several long waiting areas and one zone of transit allowing quick access to the vehicle of public transport. Thus, comfort and usability are considerably increased and the travelers do not interfere with each other.

Un autre but de l'invention est de procurer une station d'attente assurant aux voyageurs une protection améliorée contre les intempéries pendant leur attente dans la station et jusqu'à leur entrée dans le véhicule de transport en commun.Another object of the invention is to provide a waiting station providing travelers with a improved weather protection during their waiting in the station and until their entry in the transit vehicle.

En effet, avec les stations d'attente classiques la protection des voyageurs contre les précipitations et le vent reste limitée, les passagers étant notamment complètement exposés dans l'espace compris entre l'abri et le moyen de transport en commun lors de l'embarquement ou du débarquement.Indeed, with the waiting stations the protection of travelers against precipitation and wind remains limited, passengers being particularly completely exposed in space between the shelter and the means of public transportation when embarking or disembarking.

La station d'attente et d'embarquement-débarquement selon l'invention comporte une structure d'auvent prolongeant le toit de la station et surplombant le véhicule de transport en commun au niveau de sa porte d'entrée afin de réaliser un seuil d'embarquement et de débarquement protégé des intempéries.The waiting and embarkation-landing station according to the invention comprises a structure awning extending the roof of the station and overlooking the public transit vehicle at level of his front door in order to achieve a threshold boarding and disembarking severe weather.

De plus, les passagers en attente dans la zone d'attente de longue durée sont mieux protégés, celle-ci étant plus isolée qu'un abri classique.In addition, passengers waiting in the long-term waiting area are better protected, it is more isolated than a conventional shelter.

Par ailleurs, les stations classiques étant ouvertes sur leur face avant, elles sont implantées en retrait par rapport au bord du trottoir de façon à laisser un intervalle de sécurité entre la chaussée et les voyageurs en attente dans la station. L'espace libre restant entre l'arrière de la station et les entrées des maisons ou des immeubles, destiné à la circulation des piétons, s'en trouve considérablement réduit.In addition, conventional stations being open on their front, they are implanted in withdrawal from the sidewalk so as to leave a safety interval between the roadway and travelers waiting in the station. Space free space between the back of the station and the entrances to houses or buildings intended for the pedestrian traffic is considerably reduced.

Un problème se pose dans les rues étroites où les abris et les stations classiques constituent des obstacles sur le trajet des piétons qui ont des difficultés à se frayer un passage dans l'espace souvent restreint existant à l'arrière de la station. Certains décident alors de contourner la station par l'avant dans le cas d'un encombrement ou d'une densité importante dans le passage étroit destiné aux piétons. Ces piétons téméraires ou inconscients s'exposent au risque d'un accident pouvant être mortel et peuvent gêner les usagers en attente.A problem arises in the narrow streets where shelters and conventional stations constitute obstacles on the path of pedestrians who have difficulties in making their way through space often restricted existing at the back of the station. Some then decide to bypass the station by the front in the case of clutter or density important in the narrow passage for pedestrians. These reckless or unconscious pedestrians expose themselves to risk of an accident that can be fatal and can annoying users waiting.

Contrairement aux stations et abris classiques, la station d'attente selon l'invention peut être placée tout à fait en bordure de la voie empruntée par le véhicule de transport en commun. Elle laisse ainsi derrière elle un espace maximum pour le passage des piétons. Les voyageurs en attente dans la station sont eux parfaitement protégés des dangers de la circulation grâce à une paroi de protection obturant la face avant de la station située en regard de la chaussée. Cette paroi évite également qu'ils ne s'approchent trop de la voie réservée aux véhicules de transport en commun. Les voyageurs attendant à l'intérieur de la station ne peuvent plus marcher sur la chaussée pour accéder au véhicule. Ils sont contraints pour cela à emprunter le seuil d'embarquement-débarquement. De la même façon, les personnes arrivant du trottoir pour un embarquement immédiat et les personnes débarquant du véhicule de transport en commun sont fortement incitées à traverser la station en empruntant le chemin reliant le seuil à l'ouverture d'entrée de la station et peuvent difficilement passer par la chaussée. La sécurité des voyageurs est ainsi considérablement renforcée.Unlike stations and shelters conventional, the waiting station according to the invention can to be placed exactly alongside the path taken by the public transport vehicle. She lets so behind it a maximum space for the passage pedestrians. Travelers waiting in the station are they perfectly protected from the dangers of circulation thanks to a protective wall closing the front of the station located next to the floor. This wall also prevents them from too close to the vehicle lane public transport. Travelers waiting at inside the station can no longer walk on the roadway to access the vehicle. They are constrained for that to borrow the threshold boarding-disembarking. In the same way, people arriving from the sidewalk for boarding immediately and persons disembarking from the vehicle of public transport are strongly encouraged to cross the station by taking the path connecting the threshold to the entrance opening of the station and can difficult to go through the roadway. Security of travelers is thus considerably strengthened.

La présente invention enseigne de surcroít un mode de réalisation particulièrement adapté pour être implanté sur les trottoirs étroits ou sur ceux à haute fréquentation piétonnière. Selon ce mode de réalisation, la station comporte une ouverture sur sa face arrière et/ou sur une ou plusieurs de ses faces latérales permettant aux piétons de pénétrer dans la station et de la traverser sans s'exposer aux dangers de la circulation. Grâce à la structure et à l'aménagement améliorés de la station selon l'invention, les voyageurs en attente dans un tel mode de réalisation restent, malgré ces ouvertures d'entrée, protégés des intempéries et ne sont pas dérangés par le passage des piétons.The present invention further teaches a embodiment particularly adapted to be implanted on narrow or high sidewalks pedestrian traffic. According to this mode of realization, the station has an opening on its backside and / or on one or more of its faces sideways allowing pedestrians to enter the station and cross it without exposing itself to the dangers Traffic. Thanks to the structure and improved layout of the resort the invention, travelers waiting in such a mode of realization remain, despite these openings of entry, protected from the weather and are not disturbed by the pedestrian crossing.

Afin de résoudre ces problèmes techniques la station d'attente et d'embarquement-débarquement selon l'invention est placée en bordure immédiate de la chaussée. Elle comporte une paroi de protection sur sa face avant afin de protéger les voyageurs et de s'opposer à leur passage sur la chaussée. De préférence, son espace intérieur est divisé en une zone d'attente de longue durée entourée de parois sur trois de ses côtés et dont l'ouverture d'entrée débouche à l'intérieur de la station et non dans la rue, et une zone d'attente de courte durée comportant une ouverture d'entrée dans la station et un seuil d'embarquement ou de débarquement permettant un accès protégé au véhicule de transport urbain.In order to solve these technical problems the station waiting and boarding-landing according the invention is placed on the immediate edge of the floor. It has a protective wall on its front panel to protect travelers and oppose their passage on the roadway. Of preferably, its interior space is divided into an area long-term waiting surrounded by walls on three on its sides and the opening of which leads to inside the station and not in the street, and a short waiting area with an opening entrance to the station and a boarding threshold or of landing allowing protected access to the vehicle urban transport.

La zone d'attente de longue durée est particulièrement protégée afin d'isoler les voyageurs en attente du froid, du vent et des intempéries, mais aussi du bruit urbain. Elle permet également de les protéger des éclaboussures et des dangers de la circulation. Cette zone est aménagée de façon à rendre l'attente plus agréable pour les voyageurs. Elle peut ainsi comporter par exemple des sièges individuels, des bancs, des supports d'appui ischiatique, des tables, un affichage d'informations, etcβ The long-term waiting zone is particularly protected in order to isolate travelers waiting for cold, wind and bad weather, but also urban noise. It also allows them to protect from splashing and dangers from the circulation. This area is arranged in such a way as to render the wait more pleasant for travelers. She can for example, to include individual seats, benches, supports of ischial support, tables, a display of information, etcβ

La zone d'attente de courte durée, prévue pour accueillir les voyageurs prêts à embarquer, est beaucoup plus dégagée. Elle ne comporte pas de sièges, mais est par exemple pourvue de supports d'appui ischiatique ou de structures de prise d'appui et de retenue par exemple du type main-courante. Elle permet de manoeuvrer facilement les fauteuils roulants pour handicapés, les poussettes et autres véhicules d'enfants, ou tout autre dispositif encombrant, en vue de leur embarquement ou de leur débarquement dans le ou hors du véhicule de transport en commun, sans être gêné par, et sans déranger les voyageurs assis dans la zone d'attente de longue durée.Short-term waiting zone, planned to accommodate travelers ready to embark, is much more unobstructed. It does not have seats, but is for example provided with support supports ischial or support structures and held for example of the handrail type. She permits to easily maneuver wheelchairs for disabled, strollers and other vehicles children, or any other bulky device, with a view to boarding or landing in or off the public transport vehicle, without being embarrassed by, and without disturbing travelers sitting in the area long-term waiting.

Préférentiellement, la zone d'attente de courte durée se poursuit par un espace intermédiaire ou seuil d'accès à la porte du véhicule de transport en commun protégé par une structure d'auvent prolongeant le toit de la station afin d'abriter les voyageurs jusqu'à leur entrée dans le véhicule et inversement depuis leur sortie jusqu'à l'intérieur de la station.Preferably, the waiting zone of short duration continues with an intermediate space or threshold for access to the door of the transport vehicle in common protected by a canopy structure extending the roof of the station to shelter travelers until they enter the vehicle and vice versa from their exit to the inside of the station.

La station d'attente selon l'invention est en outre modulable. Il est possible de rajouter une ou plusieurs autres zones d'attente de longue ou de courte durée, comprenant un ou plusieurs seuils d'accès au véhicule. La station peut ainsi, par exemple, comporter un seuil pour chacune des portes des voitures du véhicule. La station peut également être modifiée transversalement et comporter par exemple un seuil d'accès de chaque côté de la station permettant au voyageur d'embarquer au choix dans plusieurs véhicules de transport en commun circulant en sens opposé ou sur des lignes différentes dans le cadre d'une correspondance.The waiting station according to the invention is in besides modular. It is possible to add one or several other long or short waiting zones duration, comprising one or more access thresholds vehicle. The station can thus, for example, include a threshold for each of the doors of the cars of the vehicle. The station can also be modified transversally and include for example a threshold access to each side of the station allowing the traveler to board in several vehicles public transport in the opposite direction or on different lines as part of a correspondence.

La station d'attente selon la présente invention est destinée à un système de transport en commun de personnes au sein d'une agglomération plus ou moins importante. Différents modes de réalisation découlant les uns des autres sont ainsi prévus et vont être décrits de façon détaillée ci-après. Les éléments équivalents représentés sur les différentes figures porteront les mêmes références numériques. Ces variantes découlent les unes des autres par des changements de taille, des modifications ou des adjonctions diverses. Cependant, les fonctions générales et essentielles restent identiques.The waiting station according to this invention is intended for a transport system in common people within a larger agglomeration or less important. Different embodiments arising from each other are thus planned and will be described in detail below. The elements equivalents represented in the different figures will have the same numerical references. These variants derive from each other by changes in size, modifications or various additions. However, the functions general and essential remain the same.

On décrira tout d'abord la variante de base de la station selon l'invention en référence aux figures 1 à 4.We will first describe the basic variant of the station according to the invention with reference to Figures 1 to 4.

Selon la variante de base, la station d'attente 1 est destinée à être implantée sur un trottoir 2 en bordure d'une chaussée ou d'une voie 3 où peut circuler un véhicule de transport en commun 4. Le véhicule 4 peut être de nature quelconque. Il peut s'agir par exemple d'un autobus, d'un autocar, d'une rame de métro ou de tramway, d'un véhicule routier autoguidé ou de tout autre véhicule urbain de transport de passagers. La chaussée 3 peut être une chaussée classique pour la circulation automobile. Elle peut en outre comporter des aménagements nécessaires à la circulation du véhicule de transport en commun 4, tels que par exemple des rails de circulation ou de guidage. Ces aménagements ne faisant pas partie de l'invention, n'ont pas été représentés sur les différentes figures. La chaussée 3 peut également être exclusivement réservée à la circulation des véhicules de transport urbain et le trottoir 2 consister en un quai bordant cette voie de transport en commun.According to the basic variant, the station 1 is intended to be implanted on a sidewalk 2 at the edge of a carriageway or lane 3 where may operate a public transport vehicle. Vehicle 4 may be of any kind. he can for example, a bus, a bus, a bus metro or tramway train of a road vehicle self-guided or any other urban transport vehicle of passengers. Pavement 3 can be a pavement classic for automobile traffic. She can in addition to making the necessary arrangements for transit vehicle 4, such for example, circulation or guide rails. These arrangements not forming part of the invention, have not been represented in the different figures. Pavement 3 can also be exclusively reserved for the circulation of transport vehicles urban and sidewalk 2 consist of a quay bordering this way of public transportation.

La station d'attente 1 présente, dans le premier mode de réalisation illustré sur les figures 1 à 4, une forme générale globalement parallélépipédique.The waiting station 1 has, in the first embodiment illustrated in FIGS. at 4, a generally parallelepipedic general shape.

Elle possède une armature métallique 5 comprenant plusieurs montants ou poteaux 6 de soutènement ou de charpente sensiblement verticaux disposés au niveau des faces extérieures de la station, délimitant l'espace intérieur 7 à la station. Ces montants sont par exemple au nombre de six, comme représenté sur les figures 1 à 4. Entre certains de ces montants 6 s'étendent des parois verticales 8 isolant l'espace intérieur de la station afin de constituer un abri fermé pour les voyageurs en attente. Ces parois 8 sont constituées de panneaux réalisés en une matière par exemple transparente ou translucide, telle que du verre ou une matière plastique, offrant une visibilité vers l'extérieur et laissant entrer la lumière. Les panneaux 8 peuvent en outre servir de support pour des affiches publicitaires ou des documents d'information renseignant par exemple les passagers sur les horaires, les tarifs ou l'itinéraire du véhicule de transport en commun.It has a metal frame 5 comprising several posts or posts 6 of substantially vertical support or framing arranged at the outer faces of the station, delimiting the interior space 7 at the station. These For example, there are six amounts, such as shown in Figures 1 to 4. Between some of these uprights 6 extend vertical walls 8 insulating the interior space of the station in order to constitute a closed shelter for travelers waiting. These walls 8 consist of panels made of a material for example transparent or translucent, such as glass or plastic, providing visibility outward and letting in the light. The panels 8 can also serve as support for advertising posters or information materials for example, informing passengers about timetables, the tariffs or the route of the transport vehicle in common.

L'intérieur de la station est protégé par une structure de toit 9 s'appuyant d'une part sur une poutre 10 métallique et horizontale, s'étendant longitudinalement à la station entre les montants de soutènement 6 et comprenant d'autre part un ensemble de traverses 11 métalliques, perpendiculaires à la poutre 10 et situées dans un plan sensiblement horizontal. La structure de toit 9 de la station peut elle aussi être formée par plusieurs panneaux 12 en verre ou en matière plastique transparente.The interior of the station is protected by a roof structure 9 based on one hand on a beam 10 metallic and horizontal, extending longitudinally at the station between the amounts of support 6 and comprising on the other hand a set of cross members 11 metal, perpendicular to the beam 10 and located in a substantially horizontal plane. The roof structure 9 of the station can also be formed by several panels 12 made of glass or material transparent plastic.

L'espace intérieur 7 de la station selon la variante de base de l'invention est divisé en une zone d'attente de longue durée 13 et une zone d'attente de courte durée 14.The interior space 7 of the station according to the basic variant of the invention is divided into a zone long-term waiting 13 and a waiting area of short term 14.

La zone d'attente de longue durée 13 est entourée complètement ou partiellement de parois 8 sur trois de ses côtés et s'ouvre sur l'intérieur de la station d'attente. Elle est ainsi particulièrement protégée afin d'isoler les voyageurs en situation d'attente des intempéries, du froid, du vent, ainsi que du bruit urbain. Cette zone est aménagée de façon à améliorer les conditions d'attente des voyageurs. Elle peut ainsi comporter par exemple des sièges individuels 15, des bancs 16, des supports d'appui ischiatique 17, des tables de travail ou des rebords 18 permettant aux voyageurs de poser leurs affaires. On peut également prévoir, par exemple, dans cette zone un affichage d'information, une borne automatique 19 d'achat et de délivrance de titres de transport et/ou de compostage, un distributeur de boissons, de nourriture, de billets ou de monnaie, ou tout autre dispositif simple ou interactif utile aux voyageurs ou pouvant rendre leur attente plus agréable. Cette zone peut par exemple, mais non limitativement, être aménagée de la manière représentée sur les figures 1 à 4.The long-term waiting area 13 is completely or partially surrounded by walls 8 on three of its sides and opens on the inside of the waiting station. She is particularly protected in order to isolate weather, cold, wind and urban noise. This area is designed to accommodate improve the waiting conditions for travelers. She can include for example individual seats 15, benches 16, ischiatic support supports 17, work tables or ledges 18 allowing the travelers to ask their business. We can also for example, to provide in this zone a display information, an automatic terminal 19 for the purchase and issuance of tickets and / or composting, a distributor of drinks, food, tickets or currency, or any other simple device or useful for travelers or that can make more pleasant waiting. This zone can for example, but not limited to, be arranged in the manner shown in Figures 1 to 4.

Cette zone rend l'attente utile et plus confortable aux voyageurs obligés de patienter pour embarquer dans un véhicule de transport en commun. Elle peut également constituer un point de rendez-vous ou un lieu de repos protégé et parfaitement intégré dans le paysage urbain, permettant aux piétons et aux promeneurs fatigués de s'asseoir confortablement afin de se reposer quelques minutes.This area makes the wait useful and more comfortable for travelers forced to wait for board a public transport vehicle. She can also be a meeting point or a protected place of rest and perfectly integrated into the urban landscape, allowing pedestrians and walkers tired of sitting comfortably so to rest a few minutes.

La station 1 d'attente et d'embarquement-débarquement selon l'invention comprend également une zone d'attente de courte durée 14 prévue pour accueillir les voyageurs prêts à embarquer dans le véhicule de transport en commun. Elle est de ce fait beaucoup plus dégagée que la zone d'attente de longue durée 13. Elle ne comporte pas de sièges, mais est par exemple pourvue de supports d'appui ischiatique 17 ou de structures de prise d'appui et de retenue 20 par exemple du type main-courante, disposés sur les montants verticaux 6, sur des barres horizontales 21 ou contre les parois 8. Les voyageurs peuvent ainsi manoeuvrer facilement les fauteuils roulants pour handicapés, les poussettes et autres véhicules d'enfants, valises sur roulettes ou tout autre objet ou dispositif encombrant, en vue de leur embarquement dans le véhicule 4 de transport en commun, sans être gênés par, et sans déranger, les voyageurs assis dans la zone d'attente de longue durée 13.Station 1 waiting and boarding-landing according to the invention also comprises a short waiting zone 14 provided for welcome travelers ready to embark on the public transport vehicle. It is therefore much clearer than the long waiting area duration 13. It does not have seats but is by example provided with ischial support supports 17 or of support and holding structures 20 by example of the handrail type, arranged on the uprights 6, on horizontal bars 21 or 8. Travelers can easily maneuver wheelchairs for disabled, strollers and other vehicles of children, suitcases on wheels or any other object or bulky device, with a view to their boarding the public transport vehicle 4, without being disturbed by, and without disturbing, travelers sitting in the area long-term waiting 13.

La zone d'attente de courte durée 14 est dégagée et ne comporte pas d'équipements encombrants. Elle se poursuit longitudinalement par un passage transversal matérialisé par une signalisation au sol. Ce passage se poursuit côté voie par un espace intermédiaire 22 entre le corps de la station et le véhicule ou un seuil 22 d'embarquement-débarquement, formé d'une avancée transversale 23 du sol 24 de la station sur la bordure de la voie 3, constituant un prolongement du trottoir 2, une couverture et des moyens de guidage et de protection latérale du flux de voyageurs sortant ou entrant. L'accès à la porte du véhicule s'effectue ainsi sans différence de niveau, facilitant l'embarquement et le débarquement pour tous les voyageurs, avantage particulièrement sensible aux personnes âgées, handicapées, accompagnées d'enfants ou transportant des objets lourds ou volumineux.The short waiting area 14 is unobstructed and does not have bulky equipment. It continues longitudinally through a passage transversal materialized by a signaling on the ground. This passage continues on the track side by a space intermediate 22 between the body of the station and the vehicle or a boarding / landing threshold 22, formed of a transverse advance 23 of soil 24 of the station on the edge of track 3, constituting a extension of sidewalk 2, a blanket and means of guiding and lateral protection of the flow of outgoing or incoming travelers. Access to the door of the vehicle is thus carried out without difference in level, facilitating boarding and disembarking for all travelers, a particularly elderly, disabled, accompanied by children or carrying heavy or bulky objects.

Cette avancée 23 matérialise la position de la porte d'accès ou de sortie du véhicule de transport en commun lors de son arrêt à la station.This advance 23 materializes the position of the access or exit door of the transport vehicle in common when stopping at the station.

L'espace intermédiaire 22 est bordé de moyens ou de structures de protection et de guidage de part et d'autre du seuil.The intermediate space 22 is lined with means or protection and guiding structures on the part and other of the threshold.

L'espace intermédiaire ou seuil 22 d'embarquement-débarquement est fermé en partie supérieure et protégé jusqu'au véhicule par exemple par une structure d'auvent 25 prolongeant localement en élévation le toit 9 de la station selon une forme incurvée. Lorsque le véhicule de transport en commun 4 est arrêté au niveau de la station d'attente selon l'invention, l'extrémité extérieure 26 de l'auvent 25 recouvre partiellement celui-ci au niveau de sa porte d'entrée, afin d'abriter les voyageurs des intempéries jusqu'à leur pénétration dans le véhicule et dès leur sortie. Cette caractéristique avantageuse de la station selon l'invention est illustrée plus particulièrement par la figure 3.The intermediate space or threshold 22 boarding and disembarking is partially closed superior and protected to the vehicle for example by a canopy structure 25 extending locally in elevation the roof 9 of the station according to a form curved. When the public transport vehicle 4 is stopped at the waiting station the invention, the outer end 26 of the canopy 25 partially covers it at its door entrance, to shelter travelers from inclement weather until they enter the vehicle and from their exit. This advantageous feature of the resort according to the invention is illustrated more particularly in Figure 3.

La station d'attente selon l'invention est fermée sur sa face avant, située en regard de la voie ou chaussée 3, jusqu'à l'espace intermédiaire d'embarquement-débarquement 22 par une séparation longitudinale rapprochée de la voie. Cette séparation, formant la paroi latérale longitudinale avant de la station, obture au moins partiellement la face de la station située en regard de la voie. Elle est réalisée par exemple par des panneaux verticaux 8 constituant une paroi latérale longitudinale de protection 29 qui protège les voyageurs en attente dans les zones d'attente de longue et de courte durée des éclaboussures et des dangers de la circulation et les isole de la voie réservée aux véhicules de transport en commun. Grâce à cette paroi de protection 29, les voyageurs attendant à l'intérieur de la station ne peuvent pas longer la station par l'extérieur côté voie et sont obligés d'emprunter le seuil d'embarquement 22 pour accéder au véhicule, renforçant ainsi leur sécurité.The waiting station according to the invention is closed on its front face, located next to the track or pavement 3, to the intermediate space boarding and disembarking 22 by separation longitudinal approach to the track. This separation, forming the longitudinal sidewall before the station, at least partially closes the face of the station located next to the track. It is realized for example by vertical panels 8 constituting a longitudinal protective side wall 29 which protects travelers waiting in areas long and short wait splashes and dangers of traffic and the isolates from the lane reserved for transport vehicles common. Thanks to this protective wall 29, the travelers waiting inside the station do not can not walk along the station from the outside on the track side and are obliged to borrow the boarding threshold 22 to access the vehicle, reinforcing their security.

Cette paroi de protection permet aussi d'implanter la station plus près de la voie, laissant une zone extrêmement étroite sur l'avant côté voie se limitant pratiquement à une bordure, ce qui permet de dégager un espace supplémentaire à l'arrière de la station.This protective wall also allows to locate the station closer to the lane, leaving an extremely narrow area on the front side lane is practically limiting to a border, which allows clear an extra space at the back of the station.

La station d'attente comporte sur sa face arrière une ouverture d'entrée principale 27 permettant aux voyageurs marchant sur le trottoir 2 de pénétrer dans la zone d'attente de courte durée 14. L'ouverture d'entrée principale 27 est située en face du seuil protégé 22 d'embarquement-débarquement, mettant ainsi le seuil 22 directement en communication avec le trottoir 2 par un chemin d'accès interne traversant 28 sûr et pratique, pouvant par exemple être matérialisé par un marquage au sol. Les personnes arrivant juste au moment de monter dans le véhicule peuvent rapidement se rendre, sans avoir à faire de détours, du trottoir 2 au véhicule de transport en commun, en empruntant le chemin d'accès interne 28 traversant la station transversalement puis le seuil d'embarquement 22. De même, les passagers quittant le véhicule de transport en commun débarquent sur le seuil 22 et peuvent facilement regagner le trottoir par le chemin d'accès interne 28 sans être gênés par les voyageurs en attente, les aménagements ou les parois de la station. Cette gêne fréquemment rencontrée avec les abris de bus classiques, obligeant les passagers débarquant à contourner l'abri et ceci parfois de façon imprudente en marchant sur la chaussée, est évitée.The waiting station has on its face rear a 27 main entrance opening allowing travelers walking on the sidewalk 2 to penetrate in the short waiting area 14. Opening main entrance 27 is located opposite the threshold 22 protected from boarding and disembarking, thus the threshold 22 directly in communication with the Sidewalk 2 through an internal through path 28 safe and practical, for example being able to be materialized by a marking on the ground. People just arriving at moment of getting into the vehicle can quickly get return, without having to detour, from sidewalk 2 to public transport vehicle, using the internal path 28 through the station transversely then the boarding threshold. same, passengers leaving the transport vehicle in common land on the threshold 22 and can easily return to the sidewalk by the path internal 28 without being bothered by travelers in waiting, the amenities or the walls of the station. This inconvenience frequently encountered with bus shelters Convention, requiring passengers disembarking circumvent the shelter and this sometimes carelessly walking on the roadway is avoided.

Les voyageurs, qui viennent de l'intérieur de la station, du trottoir ou du véhicule, sont ainsi canalisés et forcés à emprunter le chemin d'accès interne 28 sécurisé, pratique et direct. Les passagers sont dissuadés de contourner la station par l'avant du fait de la bordure extrêmement étroite existant entre la station et la voie mais aussi et surtout du fait d'équipements, tels que des garde-fous, barrières ou structures de prise d'appui et de guide 20, pouvant être rajoutés le long du seuil d'embarquement 22 afin de constituer des obstacles gênants permettant de contraindre et d'aider les voyageurs à passer par le seuil.Travelers, who come from within station, sidewalk or vehicle, are channeled and forced to use the path internal 28 secure, convenient and direct. The passengers are deterred from bypassing the station by the front of the makes the extremely narrow border between the station and the way but also and especially because equipment, such as guardrails, gates or support and guide structures 20, which can be added along boarding threshold 22 so to create obstacles hindering compel and help travelers to go through the threshold.

Les trajets sécurisés des voyageurs entre l'intérieur de la station et le véhicule de transport en commun et entre le trottoir et le véhicule de transport en commun sont schématisés par des flèches sur la figure 8.Secure travel routes between inside the station and the transport vehicle in common and between the sidewalk and the vehicle of public transportation are represented by arrows in Figure 8.

La figure 5 illustre un deuxième mode de réalisation de la station d'attente selon l'invention, spécialement conçu pour être implanté sur un trottoir de faible largeur ou dans les zones très fréquentées par les piétons. La station d'attente, selon ce deuxième mode de réalisation, présente une structure globalement parallélépipédique très proche de celle précédemment décrite. Son espace intérieur 7 est également partagé entre une zone d'attente de longue durée 13 et une zone d'attente de courte durée 14. La zone d'attente de courte durée 14 présente sur sa face arrière une ouverture d'entrée 27 et sur sa face avant un espace intermédiaire ou seuil 22 d'embarquement-débarquement abrité par un auvent 25, situés aux deux extrémités d'un chemin d'accès interne 28 transversal à la station et reliant directement le trottoir 2 au véhicule 4 de transport en commun.Figure 5 illustrates a second mode of realization of the waiting station according to the invention, specially designed to be installed on a sidewalk narrow width or in busy areas by pedestrians. The waiting station, according to second embodiment, presents a structure overall parallelepiped very close to that previously described. Its interior space 7 is also shared between a long waiting area duration 13 and a short waiting zone 14. The short waiting area 14 present on its face rear an inlet opening 27 and on its front face an intermediate space or boarding-landing threshold 22 sheltered by an awning 25, located at both ends of an internal path 28 transverse to the station and directly connecting the sidewalk 2 to public transport vehicle 4.

Afin de ne pas constituer un obstacle pour les piétons désirant circuler sur le trottoir, chacune des deux faces latérales de la station selon ce mode de réalisation comporte une ouverture 30 autorisant le passage des piétons à l'intérieur de la station d'attente. Les piétons peuvent pénétrer dans la station d'attente, la traverser longitudinalement et en ressortir de l'autre côté sans faire de détours et sans gêner ou être gênés par les voyageurs en attente. Ils peuvent ainsi traverser la station d'attente sans s'exposer aux dangers de la circulation. Le cheminement des piétons à travers la station est représenté par des flèches sur la figure 5.In order not to constitute an obstacle for pedestrians wishing to travel on the sidewalk, each side faces of the station according to this mode of embodiment has an opening 30 allowing the pedestrian crossing inside the station Wait. Pedestrians can enter the station waiting, cross it longitudinally and in come out on the other side without detour and without embarrass or be embarrassed by the waiting travelers. They can thus cross the waiting station without expose yourself to the dangers of traffic. The way pedestrians through the station is represented by arrows in Figure 5.

La face latérale de la zone d'attente de longue durée reste, malgré l'ouverture latérale 30, partiellement fermée sur l'un de ses bords par une portion 31 de paroi. Cette portion de paroi abrite l'une des faces longitudinales de la station, contre la paroi de laquelle sont disposés les sièges 15, bancs et autres équipements de la zone d'attente de longue durée.The lateral face of the waiting area of long time remains, despite the lateral opening 30, partially closed on one of its edges by a portion 31 of wall. This portion of the wall houses one of the longitudinal faces of the station, against the the wall of which are arranged the seats 15, benches and other equipment the long waiting area duration.

Au contraire, la face longitudinale correspondant au bord ouvert de la face latérale ne comporte pas de sièges ou analogues. Elle reste dégagée afin de permettre la libre circulation des piétons à travers la station d'attente ou de permettre l'attente debout en cas d'affluence.On the contrary, the longitudinal side corresponding to the open edge of the lateral face has no seats or the like. It remains clear to allow free movement of pedestrians to through the waiting station or allow waiting standing in case of affluence.

Grâce à la structure et à l'aménagement améliorés de ce mode de réalisation de la station selon l'invention, les voyageurs en attente restent, malgré les ouvertures latérales 30, relativement protégés des intempéries et ne sont pas dérangés par le passage des piétons qui peuvent librement traverser la station.Thanks to the structure and layout of this embodiment of the station according to the invention, waiting travelers remain, despite the lateral openings 30, relatively protected bad weather and are not disturbed by the passage of pedestrians who can freely cross the station.

Ce mode de réalisation est parfaitement adapté lorsque, malgré l'avancement de la station le plus près possible de la chaussée, le passage libre sur le trottoir entre les immeubles et la station reste étroit ou lorsqu'une importante densité de piétons est à craindre dans ce passage. Le contournement dangereux de la station par la chaussée est ainsi évité grâce à la possible traversée de la station d'attente par les piétons.This embodiment is perfectly adapted when, despite the advancement of the station, as close as possible to the roadway, the free passage on the sidewalk between the buildings and the station remains narrow or where a high density of pedestrians is to be feared in this passage. Dangerous bypass of the station by the roadway is thus avoided thanks to the possible crossing of the waiting station by pedestrians.

Les figures 6 et 7 illustrent deux autres modes de réalisation découlant des précédents par des modifications et des adjonctions diverses, mais dont les caractéristiques essentielles restent identiques. Ces deux autres variantes ne sont que des exemples de réalisation non limitatifs, illustrant la modularité de la station selon la présente invention.Figures 6 and 7 illustrate two more embodiments derived from precedents by various modifications and additions, but of which the essential characteristics remain the same. These other two variants are just examples of non-limiting production, illustrating the modularity of the station according to the present invention.

Selon ces variantes, plusieurs autres zones d'attente et seuils d'embarquement-débarquement ont été ajoutés à la station de base précédemment décrite afin de l'agrandir longitudinalement ou transversalement.According to these variants, several other zones waiting times and boarding-landing thresholds have been added to the previously described base station so to enlarge it longitudinally or transversely.

La variante représentée sur la figure 6 plus particulièrement destinée aux zones de forte affluence comporte, par exemple, trois seuils 22 d'embarquement-débarquement avec auvent matérialisant l'emplacement des portes du véhicule de transport en commun lors de son arrêt, afin de permettre aux passagers d'accéder simultanément à plusieurs véhicules de transport en commun différents ou à plusieurs entrées d'un même véhicule. On peut ainsi accéder simultanément à trois portes, correspondant par exemple à trois voitures successives d'une même rame de transport urbain.The variant shown in Figure 6 plus especially for busy areas includes, for example, three thresholds 22 boarding-landing with awning materializing location doors of the public transport vehicle when stop, to allow passengers to access simultaneously to several transport vehicles in different or multiple entries of the same vehicle. We can thus simultaneously access three doors, corresponding for example to three cars successive trains of the same urban transport train.

Cette station, plus longue que les précédentes, est constituée de plusieurs zones telles que décrites précédemment. Elle comporte en effet successivement de gauche à droite : un premier seuil d'embarquement 22, une zone traversante d'attente de longue durée 13, une petite zone d'attente de courte durée 14, un deuxième seuil d'embarquement 22, une deuxième petite zone d'attente de courte durée 14, une zone fermée d'attente de longue durée 13 et un troisième seuil d'embarquement 22. Cette station d'attente comporte sur sa face arrière trois ouvertures d'entrée 27 situées en face de chaque seuil d'embarquement 22 permettant un accès direct du trottoir au véhicule de transport en commun par trois chemins d'accès interne 28.This station, longer than the previous ones, consists of several areas as previously described. It involves indeed successively from left to right: a first threshold 22, a crossing zone waiting to long-term 13, a small short waiting area duration 14, a second boarding threshold 22, a second short waiting area 14, one closed area of long-term waiting 13 and a third boarding threshold 22. This station There are three openings on the rear 27 in front of each threshold 22 for direct access from the sidewalk to the public transportation vehicle by three internal paths 28.

Le mode de réalisation de la figure 7 est identique à celui de la figure 6, mais comprend en plus une zone traversante d'attente de longue durée 13 et un seuil d'embarquement-débarquement 22. Cette station est formée d'une station simple à laquelle on a adjoint une station combinée comportant deux passages de chaque côté dont un passage mixte à quatre entrées /sorties, deux d'entre elles en vis à vis donnant sur les voies longeant la station. Ces adjonctions par exemple selon deux éléments supplémentaires, accolés à la deuxième zone d'attente de longue durée 13 et au troisième seuil d'embarquement 22 de la variante précédente, agrandissent la station transversalement pour former une station de grande capacité.The embodiment of Figure 7 is identical to that of Figure 6, but also includes a long waiting through zone 13 and a embarkation-landing threshold 22. This station is formed of a single station to which a combined station with two passes each side of which a mixed passage to four inputs / outputs, two of them facing the tracks along the station. These additions for example according to two additional elements, contiguous to the second long-term waiting area 13 and third threshold 22 of the previous variant, enlarge the station transversely to form a high capacity station.

Ce mode de réalisation est parfaitement adapté pour une station spéciale implantée sur un trottoir central entre deux voies empruntées par des véhicules de transport en commun dans une zone de correspondance, noeud de circuit ou changement de direction. En effet, les deux derniers seuils d'embarquement 22 communiquent et sont placés dans le prolongement l'un de l'autre, permettant un accès simultané aux deux voies s'étendant de part et d'autre du trottoir central. Les passagers peuvent ainsi embarquer dans plusieurs véhicules de transport en commun, par exemple dans le cadre d'une correspondance. Ce mode de réalisation permet également de n'avoir besoin que d'une unique station d'attente pour chaque arrêt d'une ligne de transport en commun et non de deux abris correspondants aux deux sens de circulation des véhicules de transport en commun sur cette ligne. Cette station d'attente agrandie peut également servir de point d'arrêt pour plusieurs lignes de transport en commun urbain.This embodiment is perfectly adapted for a special station located on a central sidewalk between two paths taken by public transport vehicles in a zone of correspondence, circuit node or change of direction. Indeed, the last two thresholds boarding 22 communicate and are placed in the extension of each other, allowing access simultaneous to both ways extending from one side to the other from the central sidewalk. Passengers can to board several transport vehicles for example in correspondence. This embodiment also makes it possible to have need only one standby station for each stopping a public transit line and not two shelters corresponding to the two directions of movement of public transport vehicles on this line. This an enlarged standby station can also serve as stopping point for several transmission lines in urban commons.

La station, telle que représentée sur la figure 7, peut être entièrement traversée par les piétons, leur cheminement à travers la station étant schématisé par des flèches. Les piétons n'ont aucun contournement peu pratique ou dangereux à effectuer.The station, as represented on the Figure 7, can be entirely crossed by the pedestrians, their journey through the station being schematized by arrows. Pedestrians have no Circumvention impractical or dangerous to perform.

La station d'attente selon l'invention est modulable à volonté afin de répondre aux différents besoins ou souhaits rencontrés dans chaque situation. Il est possible d'ajouter longitudinalement ou transversalement une ou plusieurs zones d'attente de longue ou de courte durée, ainsi qu'un ou plusieurs seuils d'accès au véhicule. L'aménagement et les équipements intérieurs peuvent de même être modifiés. Cependant, les variantes résultant de ces diverses modifications, adjonctions ou suppressions conservent les caractéristiques essentielles de la station selon l'invention et n'échappent pas à sa portée telle que définie dans les revendications.The waiting station according to the invention is modular at will to respond to different needs or wishes encountered in each situation. It is possible to add longitudinally or transversally one or more waiting zones of long or short term, as well as one or more thresholds for access to the vehicle. The layout and interior equipment can likewise be modified. However, the variants resulting from these various modifications, additions or deletions the essential characteristics of the station according to invention and are not beyond its reach as defined in the claims.
