Definitions

  • US Pat. No. 5,630,605 and US Pat. No. 5,715,917 describe a method for dissipating the energy released in the event of a collision by means of a shock transmission element which is guided in a frame so that it can move in the direction of travel, and a shock-absorbing honeycomb structure which can be compressed by the shock transmission element is.
  • a tried and tested connection of the two sheets provides that the two sheets lying on top of one another are welded to one another at their contact surfaces.
  • a favorable variant provides that the clamping connection has four wedges which can be displaced relative to one another.
  • a wedge is rigidly connected to rods, each of which has a thread.
  • a wedge with nuts can be fastened to the rods via the threads.
  • FIG. 3 shows a view of a variant of the crumple element according to the invention from FIG.
  • FIG. 5 shows area V from FIG. 1.
  • the upper part of a crumple element 1 according to the invention has a profiled sheet 2b ', with profiles periodically attached over the surface.
  • the underside of the crumple element 1 is formed by a similar profiled sheet 2a ', which represent from - see reasons, however, is not shown.
  • the two identical profiled sheets 2a ', 2b' lie mirror-inverted on one another, the contact surfaces of the two profiled sheets 2a ', 2b' lying in the mirror plane.
  • hollow boxes 4a having a hexagonal cross section are formed as described in more detail below. This fact is particularly clear in Fig. 2.
  • the mutually facing and abutting webs 3a, 3b are connected to one another, preferably spot welded.
  • the two profiled sheets 2a ', 2b' are connected, preferably welded, to a frame 5 which has two side parts 5a, 5b and a front part 6.
  • the front part 6 consists of a cross bar 6 ', which is designed as a welded box.
  • the cross member On its side facing away from the rail vehicle, the cross member has ribs 7 running normal to the longitudinal center plane of the carriage.
  • the ribs 7 on the front part 6 serving as a bumper prevent a collision between two rail vehicles in that the front part 6 of the frame 5 of a rail vehicle "climbs over" the front part of the other rail vehicle and damages unprotected areas of the vehicle front.
  • the materials for the profile sheets 2a ', 2b' are made of stainless steel and for the frame 5, a low-alloy steel is preferred.
  • a low-alloy steel is preferred.
  • the side parts 5a, 5b of the frame 5 can be inserted into the long girders 8a, 8b of the rail vehicle via guide rails and can be fixed there by means of releasable clamp connections 9. If the crumple element 1 is damaged, the clamp connections 9, which are described in detail below, are released and the crumple element 1 together with the frame 5 are replaced as a whole.
  • the profile sheets 2a ', 2b' are shaped in cross section as isosceles trapezoids, the longer parallel side a of which is open, the two profile sheets 2a ', 2b' lying one above the other such that hollow boxes 4a with the cross section of a regular hexagon.
  • the side length s, c of one of these regular hexagons is in the range between 40 and 100 mm.
  • any symmetrical, cross-sectional shape of the hollow boxes that form a polygon - circle, triangle, square, hexagon ... - is suitable in principle for a crumple element according to the invention.
  • the welding points are shown as crosses in the figure.
  • other types of connection between the profile sheets 2a ', 2b' are possible, for. B. a continuous weld or screw.
  • the clamping connection 9 shown in FIG. 5 has two nuts 11a, 11b, which can be tightened at the end threads 12a, 12b of two rods 13a, 13b, and four screw wedges 10a, 10b, 10c, 10d which can be displaced in pairs.
  • the two rods 13a, 13b are longitudinally displaceably mounted in guides 14 which are arranged laterally on a plate 15.
  • the plate 15 has circular recesses 16.
  • the clamping connections 9 are inserted into the side parts 5a, 5b of the frame 4 and into the side members 8a, 8b.
  • the wedges 10a, 10b, 10c, 10d are pushed over each other in pairs, whereby the corresponding side part 5a, 5b of the frame 4 can be fixed in the respective longitudinal member 8a, 8b of the rail vehicle.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un élément déformable (1) appartenant à un véhicule ferroviaire, ledit élément se trouvant à proximité d'au moins une zone déformable située à l'extrémité du véhicule et présentant au moins une cavité tubulaire. Ledit élément déformable est fixé de manière amovible à l'intérieur du véhicule ferroviaire et est constitué de deux tôles (2a, 2b) parmi lesquelles au moins une est réalisée sous la forme d'une tôle profilée (2a', 2b'), lesdites tôles étant reliées entre elles au niveau de tiges (3a, 3b) adjacentes et en contact mutuel, en formant des enceintes creuses (4a, 4b) parallèles entre elles.
