Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a panel device for railway rolling stock.
  • one side wall has been proposed in which a movable panel is horizontally rotatably attached to an end face of a car to protrude beyond the end face and the panel is closed by a spring in its normal state and kept in that state (see JP-Y2-3-26048 ).
  • This prior art has a problem that a passenger can open the panel by his or her hand against the closing force of the spring and put his or her hand inside the panel.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a panel device for railway rolling stock wherein such a panel as described above can be prevented from opening, the number of sliding portions between members is small, the structure is simple, and the maintenance operation management is easy.
  • a panel device for railway rolling stock comprises, on a side portion of an interconnection passage, a supporting panel provided on each of coupled cars so as to be horizontally rotatable while a center of the rotation is on a car end face side; a vertical bearing provided on an end portion of the supporting panel; a side panel provided on an interconnection passage side of the supporting panel; a rail provided horizontally on the side panel; a slider provided slideably on the rail; a guide shaft provided vertically on the slider and inserted slideably in the bearing; an extensible sheet stretched between the side panel and a car end face; and a balancer extended between the side panel and the car end face to hang the side panel in the middle in a passage direction.
  • the supporting panel rotates horizontally around the car end face side.
  • the slider and the rail relatively slide in a passage direction and the extensible sheet is extended/contracted.
  • the side panel is hung and held by the balancer at a middle position in a passage direction in the interconnection passage. Therefore, even in case that the supporting panel and the side panel are made of rigid materials, the supporting panel and the side panel follow complicated movements of the cars.
  • the side panel may be divided at a center in the passage direction and a side panel coupling device may be provided to separably couple the divided side panels with each other.
  • bearings on the supporting panel side and guide shafts on the side panel side may be provided at upper and lower positions, an aligning bearing may be used for the upper bearing, and a hole diameter of the lower bearing may be set to be larger than a hole diameter of the upper bearing.
  • the extensible sheet may be made of a folded sheet.
  • a guide bar may be provided on the supporting panel along the passage direction and the folded sheet may be slideably held on the guide bar.
  • the side panel device provided on both side portions of the interconnection passage can be constructed by extremelyly assembling the supporting panel made of a rigid material and the side panel made of a rigid material and most part of the side face of the interconnection passage can be formed by the rigid panels, the beauty of the interconnection passage can be improved.
  • the structure is simple, assembling and disassembling are easy, and the maintenance operation management is easy.
  • the side panel can be formed in a single plane and constructed to have no portion that is opened/closed in running, the safety of the passengers passing through the interconnection passage can be increased and a superior structure can be also obtained in the viewpoint of design of the side panel.
  • FIG. 1 is a view of an end face of a car viewed from the middle of a car coupling portion.
  • FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along line A-A in FIG. 1 .
  • FIG. 3 is an enlarged sectional view taken along line B-B in FIG. 2 .
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 side panel devices 6 and 7 for protecting passing of a man or woman are provided on both side portions in the left and right directions in an interconnection passage 5 between end faces 2 and 2a of two coupled cars 1 and 1a.
  • reference numerals 3 and 3a denote gateways opened on the car end faces.
  • the side panel devices 6 and 7 will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 to 5 . Because the left and right side panel devices 6 and 7 have the same structure, only one side panel 6 will be described.
  • Supporting panels 14 and 14a constituting the side panel devices 6 and 7 are disposed along a passage direction X-X of the interconnection passage 5.
  • panel side hinges 21 and 22 are provided at upper and lower portions of the base ends of the supporting panels 14 and 14a.
  • Car side hinges 19 and 20 are fixedly provided on the end face 2 of the car 1.

  • the other side panel 14a is rotatably provided on the other car 1a in the same manner.
  • FIG. 5 is an enlarged sectional view taken along line D-D in FIG. 3 .
  • the side panels 8 and 8a are disposed on the interconnection passage 5 sides of the supporting panels 14 and 14a along the passage direction X-X.
