Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verbindungs- und Übergangssystem für gelenkig miteinander verbundene und über ein gemeinsames Fahrwerk abgestützte Gliederteile eines mehrteiligen Schienenfahrzeuges nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1.The invention relates to a connection and transition system for articulated with each other connected link parts supported by a common chassis of a multi-part rail vehicle according to the preamble of claim 1.

Derartige Verbindungs- und Übergangssyteme für mehrteilige Fahrzeuge sind in verschiedenen Ausführungen bekannt. Die Verbindung der beiden Fahrzeugeinheiten miteinander erfolgt dabei im wesentlichen durch ein Gelenk. Bei über ein gemeinsames Fahrwerk abgestützte Fahrzeugeinheiten wird dieses Gelenk durch zusätzliche Lenker- und oder Mitnehmerelemente ergänzt und bildet ein sogenanntes Multifunktionsgelenk, das zusätzlich die Längskräfte sowie die dynamischen und statischen Querkräfte des Fahrwerkes auf die Fahrzeugkästen überträgt. Ein derartiges Multifunktionsgelenk ist z. B. aus der DE 44 04 878 C1 bekannt.Such connection and transition systems for multi-part vehicles are in various versions known. The connection of the two vehicle units with each other essentially takes place through a joint. At over one Common suspension-supported vehicle units will through this joint additional handlebar and or driver elements supplemented and forms a so-called Multi-function joint, which additionally the longitudinal forces as well as the dynamic and static transverse forces of the chassis on the vehicle bodies. On such multifunctional joint is z. B. known from DE 44 04 878 C1.

Dieses Gelenk hat den Nachteil, dass es verhältnismäßig schwer ist und große Abmessungen aufweist. Hinzu kommt, dass bei solch einem Gelenk die maximalen Längskräfte sowie die dynamischen und statischen Querkräfte des Fahrwerkes konstruktionsbedingt nicht zentrisch eingeleitet werden können. Daraus folgen zusätzliche Biegemomente die sich negativ auf die Verschraubung, die Wagenkastenstruktur und das Multifunktionsgelenk selbst auswirken.The disadvantage of this joint is that it is relatively heavy and has large dimensions having. In addition, with such a joint, the maximum Longitudinal forces as well as the dynamic and static transverse forces of the chassis are due to the design cannot be initiated centrally. From this follow additional ones Bending moments that negatively affect the screw connection, the body structure and affect the multifunctional joint itself.

Als Übergangsschutz im Bereich der Trennstellen der beiden Fahrzeugeinheiten sind Wellenbälge bekannt, die den Passagieren einen unbeschränkten Übergang von einem Fahrzeugteil zum anderen ermöglichen. Ein Verbindungs- und Übergangssystem wird in der DE 42 27 126 A1 und DE 43 29 674 A1 beschrieben. Hier werden die beiden Fahrzeugeinheiten durch ein Drehkranzgelenk miteinander verbunden. Der Abstandsbereich zwischen den Bodenkonstruktionen beider Fahrzeugeinheiten wird durch eine Plattform abgedeckt, die sich auf dem Drehkranzgestell abstützt. Als Übergangsschutz, der einerseits die Gelenkverbindung und andererseits den Übergangsbereich für die Passagiere nach außen abdeckt, ist ein einfacher Wellen-/Faltenbalg angeordnet. Die beschriebenen Lösungen sind insbesondere nur für Landfahrzeuge, wie Gelenkomnibusse, vorgesehen.As a transitional protection in the area of the separation points of the two vehicle units Bellows known to give passengers an unrestricted transition from enable one vehicle part to another. A connection and transition system is described in DE 42 27 126 A1 and DE 43 29 674 A1. Here the two vehicle units are connected to each other by a slewing ring joint connected. The distance between the floor constructions of both vehicle units is covered by a platform located on the slewing ring frame supported. As a transitional protection, on the one hand the articulated connection and on the other hand covering the transition area for the outside of the passengers is a simple one Bellows / bellows arranged. The solutions described are particular only intended for land vehicles, such as articulated buses.

Als Übergangsschutz für gelenkig miteinander gekuppelte Schienenfahrzeuge sind Doppelwellenbälge bekannt, die eine gute Isolation gegen Schall, Temperatur und Druckwellen bieten. Sie haben außerdem eine gute Eigenstabilität, ohne die notwendigen Relativbewegungen zwischen den gelenkig miteinander verbundenen Schienenfahrzeugen unvertretbar zu behindern.As a transition protection for articulated coupled rail vehicles Double bellows known to provide good insulation against sound, temperature and Offer pressure waves. They also have good inherent stability without the necessary ones Relative movements between the articulated To obstruct rail vehicles unacceptably.

In der EP 0 329 031 A1 ist ein solcher Übergangsschutz, insbesondere die Verbindung der beiden Doppelwellenbälge miteinander, beschrieben.Such a transition protection, in particular the connection, is described in EP 0 329 031 A1 of the two double shaft bellows together.

Aus der Zeitschrift Verkehr und Technik 1998, Heft 4, S. 124 ist für S-Bahn-Fahrzeuge ein Verbindungs- und Übergangssystem bekannt. Die Verbindung der beiden Fahrzeugeinheiten erfolgt durch ein Multifunktionsgelenk. Das Übergangssystem wird durch einen Doppelwellenbalg gebildet, wobei der innere Balg mit seinen beiden seitlichen Flächen unten oberhalb der Fußbodenabdeckung endet. Der äußere Wellenbalg bildet eine geschlossene Röhre mit etwa rechteckigem Querschnitt, dessen unterer Bereich unmittelbar unterhalb der Fußbodenabdeckung verläuft. Mit dieser Ausführung bleibt das Multifunktionsgelenk ungeschützt außerhalb des Doppelwellenbalges angeordnet.From the magazine Verkehr und Technik 1998, issue 4, p. 124 is for S-Bahn vehicles a connection and transition system known. The connection of the two Vehicle units are made by a multifunction joint. The transition system is formed by a double shaft bellows, the inner bellows with its two lateral surfaces ends below the floor covering. The outer bellows forms a closed tube with an approximately rectangular shape Cross section, the lower area immediately below the floor covering runs. With this version, the multifunction joint remains unprotected outside arranged of the double shaft bellows.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein Verbindungs- und Übergangssystem der eingangs erwähnten Art zu schaffen, mit dem eine flach bauende Verbindung Wagenkasten/Wagenkasten und Wagenkasten/Fahrwerk erzielt, ein Schutz der Gelenkverbindung der Gliederteile vor Umwelteinflüssen bei mehrteiligen Schienenfahrzeugen mit Fußbodenhöhe um die 800 mm auch im Trennbereich der Fahrzeugeinheiten ermöglicht und ein guter Schutz des Innenraumes gegen unerwünschte Schall-, Temperatur und Druckwelleneinflüsse gegeben ist.The object of the invention is to provide a connection and transition system to create the type mentioned, with which a low-profile connection car body / car body and body / chassis achieved, protection of the articulation the link parts against environmental influences in multi-part rail vehicles with a floor height of around 800 mm, also in the separation area of the vehicle units allows and good protection of the interior against unwanted Sound, temperature and pressure wave influences are given.

Nach der Erfindung wird diese Aufgabe durch die Merkmale des Anspruches 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen 2 bis 18 beansprucht.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the features of claim 1 solved. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are in subclaims 2 claimed to 18.

Nach der erfindungsgemäßen Lösung ergeben sich wesentliche Vorteile. Durch die Funktionstrennung in den Gelenkverbindungen zwischen den Wagenkästen beider Fahrzeugeinheiten sowie den Wagenkästen und dem Fahrwerk wurde der Einsatz eines Doppelwellenbalges an einem Niedrigflurfahrzeug mit einer Fußbodenhöhe um die 800 mm erstmals ermöglicht. Daraus resultieren Verbesserungen im Übergangsbereich zwischen den beiden Fahrzeugeinheiten. Erreicht wird eine gute Isolation gegen Schall, Temperatur und Druckwellen.The solution according to the invention has significant advantages. Through the Separation of functions in the articulated connections between the car bodies of both Vehicle units as well as the car bodies and the chassis were used of a double shaft bellows on a low-floor vehicle with a floor height around 800 mm possible for the first time. This results in improvements in the transition area between the two vehicle units. Good insulation is achieved against sound, temperature and pressure waves.

Zwischen den beiden Wellenbälgen wird ohne wesentliche Einschränkungen des begehbaren Übergangsbereiches ein ringförmiger geschlossener Raum zur Aufnahme von Signal-, Elektro- und Luftleitungen sowie anderen Komponenten, wie insbesondere dem Verbindungsgelenk, dem Wankdämpfer und dgl. geschaffen, die außerdem noch vor den Einflüssen der äußeren Umgebung geschützt werden.Between the two bellows, the walk-in transition area an annular closed room for reception of signal, electrical and air lines as well as other components, such as created in particular the connecting joint, the roll damper and the like, which are also protected from the influences of the external environment.

Durch die Ausbildung der Verbindung zwischen dem inneren Wellenbalg und den Stirnwänden der Fahrzeugeinheiten gemäß Anspruch 9 mittels Spannschlössern wird die Zugänglichkeit zu den im Raum zwischen innerem und äußerem Wellenbalg liegenden Funktionsteilen erleichtert.By forming the connection between the inner bellows and the End walls of the vehicle units according to claim 9 by means of turnbuckles the accessibility to the space between the inner and outer bellows lying functional parts easier.

Die Funktionstrennung im Gelenkbereich bewirkt, dass die maximalen Längskräfte und die dynamischen und statischen Querkräfte des Fahrwerkes nicht mehr über das Gelenk in den Wagenkasten, sondern direkt in die Wagenkastenstruktur eingeleitet werden. Die Aufteilung der Kräfte bewirkt weiterhin, dass die statischen und dynamischen Anforderungen an das Gelenk und dessen Verschraubungen gegenüber einem konventionellen Multifunktionsgelenk um die vom Fahrwerk resultierenden Kräfte reduziert werden.The separation of functions in the joint area causes the maximum longitudinal forces and the dynamic and static lateral forces of the chassis no longer exceed the joint in the car body, but introduced directly into the car body structure become. The division of forces also causes the static and dynamic demands on the joint and its screw connections a conventional multifunctional joint around those resulting from the chassis Forces are reduced.

Die Länge des Lenkers ist ein entscheidender Einflußfaktor für die Dauerfestigkeit des Lenkerlagers. Ein kurzer Lenker hat bei gleichen Bewegungen des Fahrwerkes eine größere kardanische und torsionale Verdrehung gegenüber einem langen Lenker gemäß Anspruch 3. Auf Grund der Funktionstrennung konnte die Lenkerlänge um nahezu 50 % gegenüber einem konventionellen Längslenker vergrößert werden. Die Reduzierung der Verdrehwinkel ermöglicht den Einsatz relativ harter Gummi-Metall-Lenkerlager, wodurch unerwünschte Längswege bei zu weichen Lagern entgegengewirkt werden kann.The length of the handlebar is a decisive influencing factor for the fatigue strength of the handlebar bearing. A short handlebar has the same movements of the chassis a larger gimbal and torsional twist compared to a long one Handlebar according to claim 3. Due to the separation of functions, the handlebar length increased by almost 50% compared to a conventional trailing arm become. The reduction of the twist angle allows the use of relatively hard Rubber-metal handlebar bearings, which causes unwanted longitudinal paths to give way Camps can be counteracted.

Die Funktionstrennung ermöglicht weiterhin den Einsatz eines kleinbauenden Sphärogelenks.The separation of functions also enables the use of a small-sized spherical joint.

Die beschriebenen Vorteile ergeben zusammengefasst einen verbesserten Fahrkomfort sowie Vereinfachungen bei der Montage, Demontage und Kontrolle im Trennbereich der Gliederteile.In summary, the advantages described result in improved driving comfort as well as simplifications in assembly, disassembly and inspection in the Separation area of the link parts.

An einem Wagenkasten 11 ist dazu eine Gabelwange 3a und am anderen Wagenkasten 11 eine Kupplungslasche 3b befestigt. Im gekuppelten Zustand werden beide Gelenkelemente durch einen nicht weiter dargestellten Gelenkbolzen miteinander wirkungsverbunden.1 and 2 show the front end of a vehicle unit, essentially consisting of a car body 11 with a chassis frame 10 one common chassis in the separation area of two hinged together Vehicle units are functionally linked. The connection of the car bodies 11 with each other and the connection of the car bodies 11 with the chassis frame 10 takes place via two different connecting elements. For connection a joint 3 is provided between the adjacent car bodies 11. How 1 and 3, a fork-link construction is used here, that builds particularly small. For this purpose, a fork cheek is located on a car body 11 3a and attached to the other car body 11 a coupling tab 3b. in the coupled state, both joint elements are not shown by a further Hinged bolts are functionally linked.

Zur Verbindung zwischen dem Fahrwerkrahmen 10 und dem Wagenkasten 11 ist ein Längslenker 4 vorgesehen, der unmittelbar unter dem Gelenk 3 in einer Vertikalebene mit diesem angeordnet ist.For connection between the chassis frame 10 and the car body 11 is a trailing arm 4 is provided, which is directly under the joint 3 in a vertical plane is arranged with this.

Durch diese Funktionstrennung kann ein Längslenker 4 langer Bauart verwendet werden, der wesentliche Vorteile, insbesondere für die Dauerfestigkeit der Lenkerlager aufweist. Diese Bauart ist aus Fig.3 zu ersehen.Due to this separation of functions, a trailing arm 4 of long construction can be used the main advantages, especially for the fatigue strength of the handlebar bearings having. This type can be seen from Fig.3.

Zu beiden Seiten des Gelenks 3 und des Längslenkers 4 ist am Wagenkasten 11 je ein Queranschlag 5 angeordnet, der mit einem am Fahrwerkrahmen 10 angeordneten Querpuffer 6 in Wirkungsverbindung steht. Damit werden die dynamischen und statischen Querkräfte des Fahrwerkes aufgenommen und direkt in die Wagenkastenstruktur eingeleitet. Es ist von Vorteil, wenn die Mitte des Queranschlages 5 gleich der Mitte der Luftfederhöhe entspricht. On both sides of the joint 3 and the trailing arm 4 is on the body 11 each a transverse stop 5 is arranged, which is arranged on the chassis frame 10 Cross buffer 6 is in operative connection. So that the dynamic and static lateral forces of the chassis and taken directly into the body structure initiated. It is beneficial if the center of the cross stop 5 corresponds to the center of the air spring height.

Als Übergangsschutz im Trennbereich der beiden Fahrzeugeinheiten ist ein Doppelwellen-/Faltenbalg, d.h. ein äußerer Wellenbalg 1 und ein innerer Wellenbalg 2, vorgesehen. Die zwei Wellenbälge 1 und 2 bilden zwei zueinander angeordnete, ringsum geschlossene Röhren mit etwa rechteckigen Querschnitten. Die Balgseitenwände des äußeren Wellenbalges 1 liegen im Bereich der vertikalen Längsebene, in denen sich die Fahrzeugseitenwände bei der Geradeausfahrt befinden.As a transition protection in the separation area of the two vehicle units, a double shaft / bellows is i.e. an outer bellows 1 and an inner bellows 2, intended. The two bellows 1 and 2 form two mutually arranged, all around closed tubes with roughly rectangular cross sections. The bellows side walls of the outer bellows 1 are in the region of the vertical longitudinal plane, in where the vehicle side walls are when driving straight ahead.

Der untere Abschnitt des äußeren Wellenbalges 1 ist zur Fahrzeugmitte hin eingezogen und muldenförmig nach unten gezogen, wodurch das Gelenk 3 von außen komplett abgeschirmt ist.The lower section of the outer bellows 1 is drawn in towards the center of the vehicle and pulled down like a trough, causing the joint 3 from the outside is completely shielded.

Der innere Wellenbalg 2 ist in einem angemessenen Abstand vom äußeren Wellenbalg 1 angeordnet, so dass zwischen beiden Bälgen ein umschlossener Raum 9 gebildet wird, der zur Unterbringung von Signal- und Versorgungsleitungen sowie anderen technischen Bauelementen zur Verfügung steht. Die im oberen Bereich vertikalen Balgseitenwände des inneren Wellenbalges 2 verjüngen sich zum unteren Abschnitt hin, wobei der untere Abschnitt zwischen einer einschiebbaren Trittplatte 7, die das ungehinderte Begehen des Trennbereiches ermöglicht, und oberhalb des Gelenkes 3 horizontal verläuft. Der Querschnitt der beiden Wellenbälge 1 und 2 ist insbesondere aus der Fig. 2 erkennbar.The inner bellows 2 is at a reasonable distance from the outer bellows 1 arranged so that an enclosed space 9 is formed between the two bellows is used to accommodate signal and supply lines as well other technical components are available.

Der innere Wellenbalg 2 ist gesondert mittels eines oder mehrerer Spannschlösser 8 über einen Spannrahmen (nicht dargestellt) gleichfalls mit der Stirnseite des Wagenkastens 11 verbunden. Die Verbindung mit der Stirnwand der anderen Fahrzeugeinheit erfolgt gleichermaßen. Damit wird die Zugänglichkeit zu den Komponenten, welche im Raum 9 angeordnet sind, mit geringem Aufwand, nämlich durch Öffnen der Spannschlösser 8, ermöglicht. Es sind Bauarten denkbar, bei denen äußerer und innerer Wellenbalg 1 bzw. 2 in der vertikalen Kuppelebene teilbar ausgebildet sind.The inner bellows 2 is separated by means of one or more turnbuckles 8 via a clamping frame (not shown) also with the front of the car body 11 connected.
