Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Übergangsbrücke eines Übergangs mit einem Balg zwischen zwei durch ein Gelenk miteinander verbundenen Fahrzeugen, z. B. eines Gelenkbusses oder eines Fahrzeugs mit Anhänger. The present invention relates to a transition bridge of a Transition with a bellows between two by a joint with each other connected vehicles, eg. B. a joint bus or a Vehicle with trailer.

Übergangsbrücken der unterschiedlichsten Art als Teil eines Übergangs zwischen gelenkig miteinander verbundenen Fahrzeugen, z. B. eines Gelenkbusses, sind aus dem Stand der Technik hinreichend bekannt. Alle diese bekannten Übergangsbrücken stützen sich allerdings auf dem Gelenk ab. Eine solche Abstützung der Übergangsbrücke auf dem Gelenk ist möglich, da der Drehpunkt an dem Gelenk ortsfest ist. Insofern ist als Übergangsbrücke lediglich eine auf dem Gelenk sich abgestützende Scheibe erforderlich. An diese Scheibe ragen zwei Brückenteile heran, die, um das Gelenk zugänglich zu machen, durch ein Scharnier mit dem Boden des Fahrzeugs verbunden sind, so dass die Brückenteile entsprechend hochklappbar sind.Transition bridges of various kinds as part of a transition between articulated vehicles, z. B. one Articulated bus, are well known in the art. However, all these known transition bridges are based on from the joint. Such a support of the transition bridge on the Joint is possible because the pivot point is fixed to the joint. In this respect, as a transition bridge only one on the joint itself supporting disc required. Two protrude from this disk Bridge parts, which, in order to access the joint, through a hinge connected to the floor of the vehicle, so that the bridge parts are folded up accordingly.

Nun ist allerdings auch ein Gelenk bekannt, bei dem der Drehpunkt des Gelenkes nicht ortsfest ist. Ein solches Gelenk ist unter der Bezeichnung "Kreuzgelenk" aus der DE 102 09 354 A1 bekannt. Die Besonderheit dieses Gelenkes besteht darin, dass dieses Gelenk relativ kurz baut und dass der Drehpunkt des Gelenks entsprechend dem von dem Fahrzeug zu durchfahrenden Kurvenradius von innen nach außen wandert. Das heißt, der Drehpunkt ist nicht ortsfest. Insofern verbietet sich eine Brückenkonstruktion, wie sie aus dem Stand der Technik bekannt ist.Now, however, a joint is known in which the fulcrum of Joint is not stationary. Such a joint is under the Designation "universal joint" known from DE 102 09 354 A1. The Special feature of this joint is that this joint is relative builds short and that the pivot point of the joint according to the the vehicle to be traveled curve radius from the inside out emigrated. That is, the fulcrum is not stationary. Insofar as forbidden a bridge construction, as in the prior art is known.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zu Grunde, eine Übergangsbrücke zu schaffen, die sich nicht auf dem Gelenk abstützt und die insofern auch bei Übergängen mit Gelenken einsetzbar ist, bei denen der Drehpunkt nicht ortsfest ist.The invention is therefore based on the object, a To provide transition bridge, which is not supported on the joint and which can also be used in transitions with joints where the fulcrum is not stationary.

Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass die Übergangsbrücke zwei einander überlappende Bodenplatten aufweist, die relativ zueinander verschieblich sind, wobei das Gelenk einen an dem einen Fahrzeugteil angeordneten Gelenkträger umfasst, wobei die untere Bodenplatte auf dem Gelenkträger gleitend aufsitzt, wobei sich die obere Bodenplatte im Bereich des Gelenkträgers auf der unteren Bodenplatte abstützt.The object is achieved in that the Transition bridge has two overlapping floor panels, which are displaceable relative to each other, wherein the joint on an the vehicle part arranged joint carrier, wherein the lower bottom plate slidably mounted on the joint carrier, wherein the upper base plate in the area of the joint carrier on the lower Base plate supported.

Hieraus wird deutlich, dass sich die Übergangsbrücke nicht mehr auf den beweglichen Teilen des Gelenks abstützt, sondern auf den festen Teilen des Gelenks. Das heißt, es existiert ein nicht abgestützter Teil der Übergangsbrücke, so dass es hierbei zu Durchbiegungen kommen kann. Jedoch ist dieser freie Teil der Übergangsbrücke relativ kurz, da das Kreuzgelenk, wie an anderer Stelle bereits erläutert, ebenfalls kurz baut.From this it is clear that the transition bridge is no longer on supports the moving parts of the joint, but on the fixed Sharing the joint. That is, there is an unsupported part the transition bridge, so that it comes to deflections can. However, this free part of the transition bridge is relatively short because the universal joint, as already explained elsewhere, also short builds.

Weitere vorteilhafte Merkmale und Ausbildungen sind den Unteransprüchen zu entnehmen.Further advantageous features and embodiments are the Subclaims refer.

So ist nach einem besonderen Merkmal der Erfindung vorgesehen, dass die obere Bodenplatte flexibel und abriebfest ausgebildet ist. Wie bereits an anderer Stelle dargelegt, gleitet die obere Bodenplatte auf der unteren Bodenplatte. Insofern ist in diesem Bereich eine gewisse Abriebfestigkeit und auch Gleitfähigkeit zwischen den beiden Bodenplatten von Vorteil, der insbesondere dadurch erreicht werden kann, dass die obere Bodenplatte beispielsweise aus einem Kunststoff hergestellt ist. Elastisch sollte auch die untere Bodenplatte ausgebildet sein, da auch sie beispielsweise bei Wankbewegungen Verformungen unterworfen ist. Insofern kann die untere Bodenplatte in gleicher Weise wie die obere Bodenplatte hergestellt sein.Thus, according to a special feature of the invention, that the upper base plate is flexible and resistant to abrasion. As already stated elsewhere, slides on the upper base plate the lower base plate. So in this area is a certain Abrasion resistance and also lubricity between the two Floor slabs of advantage, which are achieved in particular by it can, for example, that the upper bottom plate of a plastic is made. Elastic should also the lower bottom plate formed be, as they, for example, in rolling movements deformations is subject. In this respect, the lower floor panel in the same way how to make the top bottom plate.

Um einer solchen Bodenplatte aus Kunststoff die erforderliche Stabilität zu vermitteln, sind nach einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung in den Kunststoff der Bodenplatte Verstärkungselemente eingearbeitet. Das heißt, dass beispielsweise bei einer im Spritzgussverfahren hergestellten Bodenplatte die entsprechenden Verstärkungselemente als Einlagen mit umspritzt werden.To such a base plate made of plastic, the required stability to convey are, according to a further feature of the invention in the Plastic incorporated the bottom plate reinforcing elements. The means that, for example, in an injection molding produced bottom plate the corresponding reinforcing elements to be injected as deposits with.

Da auch die untere Bodenplatte bei Kurvenfahrt des Fahrzeuges eine Relativbewegung zum Gelenkträger ausübt, auf dem sie aufliegt, ist erforderlich, dass zwischen der Oberfläche des Gelenkträgers einerseits und der Unterseite der unteren Bodenplatte andererseits eine gleitende Bewegung ermöglicht wird. Insofern ist vorgesehen, dass auf dem Gelenkträger Gleitelemente für die gleitende Bewegung der unteren Bodenplatte vorgesehen sind. Denkbar ist aber auch die umgekehrte Anordnung der Gleitelemente an der unteren Bodenplatte. Solche Gleitelemente können Kunststoffteile sein, die besonders abriebfest sind und darüber hinaus einen geringen Reibbeiwert aufweisen.As well as the lower base plate when cornering the vehicle a Relative movement to the joint carrier exerts on which it rests required that between the surface of the joint carrier on the one hand and the underside of the lower bottom plate on the other hand a sliding motion is enabled. Insofar is provided on that the joint carrier sliding elements for the sliding movement of lower bottom plate are provided. But it is also conceivable reverse arrangement of the sliding elements on the lower base plate. Such sliding elements may be plastic parts, which are particularly resistant to abrasion and beyond a small Have friction coefficient.

Vorteilhaft besitzt der Gelenkträger eine Traverse, die im Bereich des Übergangs von der unteren zur oberen Bodenplatte auf dem Gelenkträger angeordnet ist. Diese Traverse dient als zusätzliche Stütze und Auflage für die untere Bodenplatte, weshalb die Traverse für die Gleitbewegungen der unteren Bodenplatte auch in diesem Bereich entsprechende Gleitelemente aufweist.Advantageously, the joint carrier has a traverse, which in the area of Transition from the lower to the upper floor plate on the Joint carrier is arranged. This truss serves as additional Support and support for the lower base plate, which is why the traverse for the sliding movements of the lower base plate also in this area having corresponding sliding elements.

Wie bereits an anderer Stelle erläutert, eignet sich die zuvor beschriebene Übergangsbrücke erfindungsgemäß insbesondere für ein sogenanntes Kreuzgelenk. Ein solches Kreuzgelenk weist zwei kreuzweise angeordnete Gelenkarme auf, wobei die Gelenkarme mit ihrem einen Ende drehbar an dem Gelenkträger und mit ihrem anderen Ende drehbar an Gelenkböcken befestigt sind, wobei die Gelenkböcke an dem anderen Fahrzeugteil angeordnet sind. An dieser Stelle sei noch einmal darauf hingewiesen, dass die vorliegende Erfindung sowohl bei Gelenkfahrzeugen als auch bei einem Zugfahrzeug mit einem abkuppelbaren Anhänger Anwendung findet. Ein solches Kreuzgelenk zeichnet sich weiterhin dadurch aus, dass die Gelenkarme im Bereich der Anlenkung an den Gelenkträger endseitig jeweils einen Nocken zur Aufnahme eines Dämpfers aufweisen, wobei der Dämpfer beispielsweise als hydraulische Kolbenzylindereinheit ausgebildet ist, die mit dem Gelenkträger in Verbindung steht. Hiermit wird deutlich, dass die Auslenkung der Gelenkarme bei z. B. Kurvenfahrt dämpfend erfolgt.As already explained elsewhere, the previous one is suitable Transition bridge according to the invention described in particular for a so-called universal joint. Such a universal joint has two crosswise arranged articulated arms, wherein the articulated arms with its one end rotatable on the joint carrier and with its other End are rotatably mounted on articulated trestles, wherein the articulated trestles are arranged on the other vehicle part. At this point be once again pointed out that the present invention in articulated vehicles as well as in a towing vehicle with a detachable trailer application applies. Such Universal joint is further characterized by the fact that the articulated arms in the region of the linkage to the joint carrier end one each Cam for receiving a damper, wherein the damper For example, is designed as a hydraulic piston-cylinder unit, which is in communication with the joint carrier. This makes it clear that the deflection of the articulated arms at z. B. cornering dampening he follows.

Um zu gewährleisten, dass bei Kurvenfahrt die untere Platte nicht über die obere Bodenplatte seitlich übersteht, weist die untere Bodenplatte im Bereich der oberen Bodenplatten einen giebelartigen, also etwa konisch verlaufenden Endbereich auf.To ensure that when cornering the lower plate does not over the upper bottom plate projects laterally, has the lower bottom plate in the area of the upper floor slabs a gable-like, so about tapered end region on.

Wie bereits an anderer Stelle erläutert, soll insbesondere bei Verwendung der Übergangsbrücke bei einem Übergang eines Fahrzeugs, bestehend aus Zugfahrzeug und Anhänger, das Zugfahrzeug getrennt von dem Hänger nutzbar sein. Das bedeutet auch, dass die Übergangsbrücke ebenfalls in einfacher Weise teilbar sein muss. Insofern ist vorgesehen, dass die untere Bodenplatte, die an dem anderen Fahrzeugteil befestigt ist, im Bereich der Gelenkböcke ein Scharnier aufweist, um die Bodenplatte im Falle des Abkuppelns des hinteren Fahrzeugsteils von dem vorderen Fahrzeugteil hochklappen zu können.As already explained elsewhere, especially in Use of the transition bridge in a transition of a Vehicle consisting of towing vehicle and trailer, the Towing be separated from the trailer usable. That means Also, that the transition bridge also divisible in a simple manner have to be. Insofar it is envisaged that the lower base plate, the the other vehicle part is attached, in the area of the joint blocks Has hinge to the bottom plate in case of uncoupling the rear vehicle part of the front vehicle part to fold up can.

Des Weiteren ist vorgesehen, dass die Stirnkante der oberen Bodenplatte im Übergangsbereich zur unteren Bodenplatte bogenförmig eingezogen ausgebildet ist. Mit einer solchermaßen eingezogenen oberen Bodenplatte wird schlussendlich Material eingespart, was zur Kostenreduzierung führt. Darüber hinaus überlappen die beiden Bodenplatten einander in dem Bereich des Gelenkträgers. Wesentlich ist allerdings folgender Aspekt:

  • Durch die eingezogene obere Bodenplatte wird eine geringere Relativgeschwindigkeit zwischen den beiden Bodenplatten bei
  • Bewegung bewerkstelligt, als wenn im Gegensatz dazu die obere
  • Bodenplatte die untere Bodenplatte großflächig überlappen würde. Dies dient schlussendlich dem Komfort der Fahrgäste und auch deren
  • Sicherheit. Im Bereich der Stirnkanten der oberen Bodenplatte ist fernerhin eine Dichtlippe vorgesehen, um den Eintritt von Schmutz von oben in das Gelenk zu verhindern.
    • Furthermore, it is provided that the front edge of the upper base plate is formed arcuate in the transition region to the lower base plate. With such a retracted upper base plate material is ultimately saved, which leads to cost reduction. In addition, the two bottom plates overlap each other in the region of the joint carrier. However, the following aspect is essential:
  • Due to the retracted upper floor plate is a lower relative speed between the two floor panels at
  • Movement accomplished, as if in contrast to the upper
  • Base plate would overlap the lower base plate over a large area. This ultimately serves the comfort of passengers as well as theirs
  • Safety. Furthermore, a sealing lip is provided in the region of the end edges of the upper base plate in order to prevent the entry of dirt from above into the joint.

    • Anhand der Zeichnungen wird die Erfindung nachstehend beispielhaft näher erläutert.
