Description

La présente invention concerne un véhicule ferroviaire, du type comprenant :

  • une caisse s'étendant longitudinalement et délimitant intérieurement des salles,
  • des sièges disposés dans les salles,
  • des moyens d'identification des sièges,
  • des moyens d'identification du véhicule, et
  • au moins une porte latérale d'accès aux salles.
The present invention relates to a railway vehicle, of the type comprising:
  • a box extending longitudinally and internally delimiting rooms,
  • seats arranged in the rooms,
  • means of identifying seats,
  • vehicle identification means, and
  • at least one side door to access the rooms.

L'invention s'applique en particulier aux véhicules ferroviaires destinés à circuler à grandes vitesses, c'est à dire à des vitesses supérieures à environ 270km/h.The invention applies in particular to railway vehicles intended for travel at high speeds, i.e. at speeds greater than approximately 270km / h.

On connaít des véhicules du type précité, par exemple à deux étages. Ces véhicules comprennent chacun, à une extrémité longitudinale, deux portes latérales d'accès qui sont prévues dans les parois latérales de la caisse. Ces portes latérales permettent d'accéder via une plate-forme inférieure à la salle de l'étage inférieur et, par l'intermédiaire d'un escalier et d'une plate-forme supérieure, à la salle de l'étage supérieur.We know vehicles of the aforementioned type, for example two floors. These vehicles each have two doors at one longitudinal end side access which are provided in the side walls of the body. These side doors allow access via a lower platform to the bathroom the lower floor and, via a staircase and a platform superior, to the hall of the upper floor.

Lorsque plusieurs de ces véhicules sont attelés les uns aux autres pour constituer une rame, il est également possible de passer longitudinalement de la salle supérieure d'un véhicule à la salle supérieure d'un véhicule adjacent par l'intermédiaire de portes d'intercirculation prévues aux extrémités longitudinales des véhicules.When more than one of these vehicles is coupled to each other to constitute a train, it is also possible to pass longitudinally from the upper room of a vehicle to the upper room of a vehicle adjacent by through interconnecting doors provided at the longitudinal ends cars.

On a constaté que de tels véhicules présentent un certain nombre d'inconvénients.It has been found that such vehicles have a number of disadvantages.

Ainsi, les passagers ont du mal à localiser et à accéder aux sièges qui leur sont affectés lors d'une réservation.This makes it difficult for passengers to locate and access the seats they are affected when making a reservation.

En effet, malgré les moyens d'identification du véhicule qui sont généralement prévus à proximité des portes latérales d'accès, beaucoup de passagers se trompent de véhicule et pénètrent dans un véhicule adjacent à celui où ils ont un siège réservé.Indeed, despite the vehicle identification means which are generally provided near the side access doors, a lot of passengers get the wrong vehicle and get into a vehicle adjacent to the one where they have a reserved seat.

Cela engendre des circulations de passagers à contre-courant qui rendent l'accès aux sièges pénible et long. C'est d'autant plus vrai lors des arrêts en gare où des passagers doivent descendre des véhicules et d'autres y pénétrer afin d'accéder à leurs sièges. This generates counter-current passenger traffic which makes painful and long access to seats. This is especially true during station stops where passengers have to get off vehicles and others have to get in to access their seats.

Cela est encore accru par les distances importantes qu'il faut parcourir depuis les portes d'accès d'un véhicule pour atteindre les sièges disposés à l'autre extrémité longitudinale du véhicule.This is further increased by the long distances that have to be traveled from the access doors of a vehicle to reach the seats arranged at the other longitudinal end of the vehicle.

Enfin, la longueur des salles inférieures de ces véhicules, qui constituent des culs-de-sac, accroít encore les difficultés d'accès des passagers aux sièges qu'ils ont réservés.Finally, the length of the lower rooms of these vehicles, which constitute dead ends, further increasing the difficulty for passengers to access the seats that they have reserved.

Un but de l'invention est de résoudre ce problème en fournissant un véhicule du type précité qui permette aux passagers de localiser et d'accéder plus facilement et plus rapidement aux sièges qu'ils ont réservés.An object of the invention is to solve this problem by providing a vehicle of the aforementioned type which allows passengers to locate and access more easily and quickly to the seats they have reserved.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un véhicule ferroviaire du type précité, caractérisé en ce que la porte latérale est une porte intermédiaire éloignée des extrémités longitudinales du véhicule et disposée longitudinalement entre deux salles munies de sièges auxquelles elle permet d'accéder, la porte intermédiaire étant placée de façon à définir deux salles de longueur du même ordre de grandeur.To this end, the invention relates to a rail vehicle of the aforementioned type, characterized in that the side door is an intermediate door remote from longitudinal ends of the vehicle and disposed longitudinally between two rooms with seats to which it provides access, the intermediate door being placed so as to define two rooms of length of the same order of magnitude.

Selon des modes particuliers de réalisation, le véhicule peut comprendre l'une ou plusieurs des caractéristiques suivantes, prise(s) isolément ou selon toutes les combinaisons techniquement possibles :

  • il comprend des moyens d'indication de la répartition des sièges entre les salles,
  • il comprend un espace d'accès aux salles disposé longitudinalement entre lesdites deux salles, et les moyens d'indication sont disposés dans l'espace d'accès,
  • la caisse comprend deux étages, chaque étage comportant deux salles et une plate-forme disposée longitudinalement entre les deux salles pour y accéder, et le véhicule comprend au moins un escalier intérieur permettant de passer d'une plate-forme à l'autre,
  • la porte latérale d'accès est disposée longitudinalement sensiblement au centre du véhicule,
  • la caisse comporte deux portes intermédiaires latérales d'accès prévues dans des parois latérales opposées de la caisse,
  • il ne comprend pas de porte latérale d'accès à ses extrémités longitudinales,
  • il comprend à ses extrémités longitudinales des portes permettant d'accéder longitudinalement à une salle d'un véhicule ferroviaire adjacent.
According to particular embodiments, the vehicle may include one or more of the following characteristics, taken alone or in any technically possible combination:
  • it includes means for indicating the distribution of seats between the rooms,
  • it includes a room access space arranged longitudinally between said two rooms, and the indication means are arranged in the access space,
  • the body comprises two floors, each floor comprising two rooms and a platform arranged longitudinally between the two rooms to access it, and the vehicle comprises at least one internal staircase making it possible to pass from one platform to the other,
  • the side access door is arranged longitudinally substantially in the center of the vehicle,
  • the body has two intermediate side access doors provided in opposite side walls of the body,
  • it does not include a side access door to its longitudinal ends,
  • it comprises at its longitudinal ends doors allowing longitudinal access to a room of an adjacent railway vehicle.

L'invention a en outre pour objet une rame comprenant plusieurs véhicules ferroviaires attelés les uns aux autres, caractérisé en ce que les véhicules sont des véhicules tels que définis ci-dessus.The invention further relates to a train comprising several vehicles railway coupled to each other, characterized in that the vehicles are vehicles as defined above.

Selon une variante, les extrémités longitudinales adjacentes de deux véhicules adjacents sont supportées par un bogie commun.Alternatively, the adjacent longitudinal ends of two adjacent vehicles are supported by a common bogie.

L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description qui va suivre, donnée uniquement à titre d'exemple, et faite en se référant à la figure unique annexée qui est une vue schématique, partielle, en coupe longitudinale et médiane d'une rame selon l'invention.The invention will be better understood on reading the description which follows, given only as an example, and made with reference to the single figure attached which is a schematic, partial view, in longitudinal section and median of a train according to the invention.

La figure illustre une rame 1 comprenant plusieurs véhicules ferroviaires attelés les uns aux autres. Les véhicules ferroviaires 2 ayant des structures analogues, un seul sera décrit ci-dessous.The figure illustrates a train 1 comprising several railway vehicles harnessed to each other. Rail vehicles 2 having structures analogues, only one will be described below.

Le véhicule 2 comprend une caisse 3 s'étendant longitudinalement selon une direction L et délimitant intérieurement un habitacle 4. Les extrémités longitudinales 6 du véhicule 2 sont attelées à des extrémités longitudinales 6 de véhicules 2 adjacents. Chaque paire d'extrémités longitudinales 6 attelées l'une à l'autre repose sur un bogie commun 8.The vehicle 2 comprises a body 3 extending longitudinally along a direction L and internally delimiting a passenger compartment 4. The ends longitudinal 6 of vehicle 2 are coupled to longitudinal ends 6 of 2 adjacent vehicles. Each pair of longitudinal ends 6 coupled one to the the other is based on a common bogie 8.

La caisse 3 comprend deux étages 10 séparés par un plancher 12.The box 3 comprises two floors 10 separated by a floor 12.

L'étage 10 supérieur comprend deux salles 14 d'accueil de passagers séparées par une plate-forme 16 d'accès longitudinal aux salles 14.Upper floor 10 includes two passenger reception rooms 14 separated by a platform 16 for longitudinal access to the rooms 14.

L'étage 10 inférieur comprend deux salles 18 d'accueil de passagers séparées par une plate-forme 20 d'accès longitudinal aux salles 18.The lower floor 10 includes two passenger reception rooms 18 separated by a platform 20 for longitudinal access to the rooms 18.

Des portes 22 et 24 sont prévues respectivement entre la plate-forme 16 et les salles 14 et entre la plate-forme 20 et les salles 18.Doors 22 and 24 are provided respectively between the platform 16 and rooms 14 and between platform 20 and rooms 18.

Les portes 22 et 24 et les plates-formes 16 et 20 délimitent dans la caisse 3 un espace intérieur 25 d'accès aux salles 14 et 18.Doors 22 and 24 and platforms 16 and 20 delimit in the body 3 an interior space 25 for access to rooms 14 and 18.

Un escalier intérieur 26 (en traits mixtes) est prévu dans l'espace 25 pour passer de la plate-forme supérieure 16 à la plate-forme inférieure 20 et inversement.An internal staircase 26 (in broken lines) is provided in space 25 for go from the upper platform 16 to the lower platform 20 and Conversely.

Les plates-formes 16 et 20 sont éloignées des extrémités longitudinales 6 du véhicule 2 et sont disposées longitudinalement sensiblement au centre de celui-ci.The platforms 16 and 20 are distant from the longitudinal ends 6 of vehicle 2 and are arranged longitudinally substantially in the center of this one.

Chaque salle 14, 18 comprend des sièges 30 dont la disposition peut être différente dans chacune des salles 14 et 18.Each room 14, 18 includes seats 30, the arrangement of which can be different in each of rooms 14 and 18.

Chaque salle 14, 18 comprend des moyens intérieurs 32 d'identification des sièges 30. Il peut s'agir par exemple d'éléments, placés en regard des sièges 30 sur la paroi latérale 33 adjacente de la caisse 3, et portant des numéros d'identification des sièges 30. En variante, il peut également s'agir d'éléments disposés sur les dossiers des sièges 30.Each room 14, 18 includes interior means 32 for identification seats 30. These may for example be elements placed opposite the seats 30 on the side wall 33 adjacent to the body 3, and bearing numbers seat identification 30. Alternatively, it may also be elements arranged on the seat backs 30.

Chaque paroi latérale 33 de la caisse 3 comprend, au droit de la plate-forme inférieure 20, une porte latérale 34 d'accès latéral à l'intérieur de la caisse 3. Une telle porte 34 peut avoir une structure classique et débouche sur la plate-forme inférieure 20 dans l'espace 25.Each side wall 33 of the body 3 comprises, to the right of the platform lower 20, a side door 34 for lateral access to the interior of the body 3. Such a door 34 can have a conventional structure and opens onto the platform. lower 20 in space 25.

Chaque paroi latérale 33 comporte, de préférence au voisinage de la porte 34, des moyens extérieurs 36 d'identification du véhicule ferroviaire 2 Ces moyens 36 sont visibles en pointillés sur la figure. Il peut s'agir par exemple d'afficheurs numériques pour afficher un numéro préalablement affecté au véhicule 2.Each side wall 33 comprises, preferably in the vicinity of the door 34, external means 36 for identifying the railway vehicle 2 These means 36 are visible in dotted lines in the figure. It can be for example digital displays to display a number previously assigned to the vehicle 2.

Les parois latérales 33 peuvent également comprendre, au droit des plate-formes 16 et 20, des moyens intérieurs 37 d'indication de l'ensemble des numéros de sièges 30 se trouvant dans chaque salle 14 et 18. Il peut s'agir de supports d'affiches, d'afficheurs numériques... Ces moyens 37 indiquent donc la répartition des sièges 30 entre les salles 14 et 18.The side walls 33 can also include, in line with the platforms 16 and 20, internal means 37 for indicating all of the seat numbers 30 found in each room 14 and 18. These may be supports for posters, digital displays ... These means 37 therefore indicate the distribution of seats 30 between rooms 14 and 18.

Aux extrémités longitudinales 6 du véhicule ferroviaire 2, la caisse 3 comprend des portes d'intercirculation 38 qui permettent de passer longitudinalement de l'étage supérieur 10 du véhicule ferroviaire 2 à l'étage supérieur 10 des véhicules ferroviaires 2 adjacents.At the longitudinal ends 6 of the rail vehicle 2, the body 3 includes interconnecting doors 38 which allow passage longitudinally from the upper floor 10 of the rail vehicle 2 to the floor upper 10 of the adjacent 2 railway vehicles.

On notera que le véhicule ferroviaire 2 ne comprend pas de porte latérale d'accès prévue aux extrémités longitudinales 6 du véhicule ferroviaire 2.Note that the rail vehicle 2 does not include a side door access provided to the longitudinal ends 6 of the rail vehicle 2.

La caisse 3 comprend par exemple des toilettes 40 situées sur les plates-formes 16 et 20. Les toilettes 40 inférieures ne sont pas visibles sur la figure.The box 3 comprises for example toilets 40 located on the platforms 16 and 20. The lower toilets 40 are not visible in the figure.

Les salles supérieures 14 comprennent des emplacements 42 pour le rangement de bagages. Ces emplacements 42 peuvent être répartis le long des salles 14 ou disposés à l'une ou l'autre de leurs extrémités longitudinales.The upper rooms 14 include slots 42 for the luggage storage. These locations 42 can be distributed along the rooms 14 or arranged at one or the other of their longitudinal ends.

Les salles inférieures 18 comprennent également de tels emplacements 42 qui sont par exemples prévus à leurs extrémités longitudinales.The lower rooms 18 also include such locations 42 which are for example provided at their longitudinal ends.

Lorsqu'un passager a réservé un siège dans la rame 1, il lui a été fourni des informations permettant d'identifier le siège 30 correspondant et le véhicule 2 dans lequel il est situé, par exemple un numéro de siège et un numéro de véhicule.When a passenger has reserved a seat in train 1, it has been provided information making it possible to identify the corresponding seat 30 and the vehicle 2 in which it is located, for example a seat number and a vehicle.

Le passager doit tout d'abord localiser le véhicule 2 grâce à ses moyens 36 d'identification et y pénétrer via une des portes 34. Les risques d'erreur d'identification du véhicule 2 par le passager sont réduits car les portes latérales d'accès 34 sont des portes intermédiaires éloignées des extrémités 6 des véhicules 2. Le passager ne risque donc pas de croire que la porte d'accès 34 qu'il utilise est en fait associée à un véhicule 2 adjacent. Cette réduction du risque d'erreur permet donc de limiter la circulation à contre-courant de passagers à l'intérieur des véhicules 2.The passenger must first locate the vehicle 2 using his means 36 and enter it through one of the doors 34. The risk of error vehicle identification 2 by the passenger are reduced because the side doors access 34 are intermediate doors distant from the ends 6 of the vehicles 2. The passenger is therefore not likely to believe that the access door 34 that he uses is in fact associated with an adjacent vehicle 2. This reduction in risk of error therefore makes it possible to limit the counter-current circulation of passengers inside vehicles 2.

Une fois que le passager a pénétré à l'intérieur du véhicule 2 et se trouve sur la plate-forme inférieure 20, il peut accéder à chacune des salles supérieures 14 via l'escalier 26 et la plate-forme supérieure 16, comme matérialisé par les flèches 44 sur la figure. Il peut également accéder directement aux salles inférieures 18, comme matérialisé par les flèches 46 sur la figure.Once the passenger has entered the interior of vehicle 2 and is on the lower platform 20, he can access each of the upper rooms 14 via the staircase 26 and the upper platform 16, as shown by the arrows 44 in the figure. It can also directly access the rooms lower 18, as shown by the arrows 46 in the figure.

Grâce aux moyens 37 qui indiquent la répartition des sièges 30 dans les salles, le passager peut localiser, lorsqu'il est dans l'espace 25, la salle 14 ou 18 où son siège se situe et se diriger directement vers cette salle afin d'y rechercher le siège 30 qui lui a été affecté.Thanks to the means 37 which indicate the distribution of the seats 30 in the rooms, the passenger can locate, when in space 25, room 14 or 18 where his seat is located and go directly to this room to find the seat 30 which has been assigned to it.

Cela permet de limiter le risque qu'un passager pénètre par erreur dans une salle 14 ou 18 alors que le siège 30 qui lui a été affecté ne s'y trouve pas, et donc de réduire la circulation à contre-courant dans les véhicules 2.This helps limit the risk of a passenger accidentally entering a room 14 or 18 when the seat 30 which has been assigned to it is not there, and therefore reduce counter-current traffic in vehicles 2.

Enfin, les longueurs de chaque salle 14, 18 étant réduites, les inconvénients liés à la circulation à contre-courant de passagers qui peut s'y produire sont réduits et l'effet de cul-de-sac rencontré dans les salles inférieures 18 est également diminué.Finally, the lengths of each room 14, 18 being reduced, the disadvantages of the counter-current movement of passengers there produced are reduced and the dead end effect encountered in lower rooms 18 is also decreased.

Ainsi, les passagers peuvent déterminer beaucoup plus rationnellement, et donc beaucoup plus simplement et rapidement, le véhicule 2 et l'emplacement précis du siège 30 qui leurs ont été affectés. En outre, l'accès aux sièges 30 est beaucoup plus simple et rapide du fait de la répartition de la circulation des passagers en quatre flux différents et relativement homogènes, comme matérialisé par les flèches 44 et 46.So passengers can determine much more rationally, and so much more simply and quickly, vehicle 2 and location specific seat 30 assigned to them. In addition, access to seats 30 is much simpler and faster due to the distribution of traffic passengers in four different and relatively homogeneous flows, such as materialized by arrows 44 and 46.

De plus, la présence de quatre salles 14 et 18 distinctes et séparées dans chaque véhicule 2 permet d'affecter chacune de ces salles à des groupes de personnes différents, par exemple à des familles, à des passagers fumeurs, à des passagers non-fumeurs...In addition, the presence of four separate and separate rooms 14 and 18 in each vehicle 2 allows each of these rooms to be assigned to groups of different people, for example families, smoking passengers, non-smoking passengers ...

Cela permet de limiter les désagréments qu'une catégorie de passagers peut faire supporter à une autre catégorie de passagers et également, comme exposé précédemment, de réduire les risques d'erreurs lors de la recherche d'un siège affecté à un voyageurThis limits the inconvenience that a category of passengers can support another category of passengers and also, like previously discussed, to reduce the risk of errors when looking for a seat assigned to a traveler

Dans certains véhicules 2, une des salles 14 ou 18 peut être équipée d'un comptoir et de tables pour former un bar/restaurant. Certaines salles 18 peuvent également être affectées à des locaux techniques de toutes natures (compartiment à bagages, local pour équipements électrique,...).In some vehicles 2, one of rooms 14 or 18 can be equipped with a counter and tables to form a bar / restaurant. Some rooms 18 may also be assigned to technical rooms of all kinds (luggage compartment, room for electrical equipment, ...).

Dans une variante non-représentée, la caisse 3 d'un ou de chaque véhicule 2 peut comprendre une plate-forme intermédiaire, disposée entre la plate-forme supérieure 16 et la plate-forme inférieure 20, et permettant d'accéder aux plates-formes 16 et 20 par des escaliers intérieurs. Les portes latérales 34 débouchent alors sur cette plate-forme intermédiaire qui est disposée longitudinalement entre au moins deux salles 14 ou 18 du véhicule 2 considéré.In a variant not shown, the box 3 of one or each vehicle 2 may include an intermediate platform, disposed between the upper platform 16 and lower platform 20, and providing access to platforms 16 and 20 by internal stairs.
