Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a connecting device between two adjacent passenger carriages extending in a longitudinal direction, the cars being two-storey and each having a superimposed lower and upper storey, of the type comprising separate gangways enabling passengers to pass from one car to another, including at least a first gangway extending between the lower floors of the cars, a second gangway extending between the upper floors of the cars, cars, and a third gangway extending between the lower floor of one of the two cars and the upper floor of the other of the two cars.
  • EP 0 616 935 discloses a gangway device of the aforementioned type, wherein the first and second gangways are superimposed.
  • this gangway device requires the use of independent wheels without axle so that the first and second passages each have a sufficient height, while respecting a maximum height for cars.
  • An object of the invention is to provide a connecting device between two cars with two floors facilitating the movement of travelers between cars while having a less significant impact on the structure of cars.
  • the invention proposes a gangway device according to claim 1.
  • the invention also relates to a two-stage train passenger car having a lower tier and a stacked upper stage, characterized in that it comprises a first opposite end portion and a second end portion for connecting the two-stage train. the car to other cars, the first portion being complementary to the second portion, so that the first portion forms, when connected to a end portion of another car identical to the second end portion, a gangway device as defined above.
  • the invention also relates to a train comprising at least two adjacent passenger cars, and a connecting device between the two cars as defined above.
  • a gangway device 2 extends between two adjacent cars 4, 6 of a train 8, and allows travelers to go from one of these two cars to another without leaving the train 8.
  • the cars 4 and 6 extend in a longitudinal direction L, and are arranged in line and connected to each other by their respective end portions 10, 12 adjacent.
  • the gangway device 2 comprises the portions 10, 12, and a gangway 14, for example of the known bellows type, interposed between the portions 10 and 12.
  • the portions 10, 12 are provided with facing openings, and connected, in known manner, by the interconnection 14 to allow the movement of passengers between cars 4 and 6.
  • Portions 10, 12 are based on a bogie 16 for supporting and guiding cars 4, 6 along a railway line, located astride between cars 4 and 6.
  • the bogie 16 is preferably a motor bogie, provided with propulsion means for moving the train 8.
  • the bogie 16 connects the cars 4 and 6 together. Other types of connection between cars 4 and 6 are possible.
  • Each car 4, 6 is two-storey, and comprises a lower floor 18, respectively 19, and an upper floor 20, respectively 21, superimposed.
  • the car 4 has, near the portion 10, side access doors 22, allowing passengers to embark on or disembark from the car 4.
  • the doors 22 give access to an access platform 24 located longitudinally along the car 4 between the end portion 10 and a passenger compartment.
  • Passenger compartment means a zone of a specific floor, equipped with seats for travelers.
  • the gangway device 2 comprises three passages interconnecting 26, 28, 30 each allowing to move from one of the cars 4 and 6 to another.
  • the passage 26 extends between the platform 24 and the passenger compartment of the floor 21.
  • the passage 26 is located longitudinally between the platform 24 and this compartment.
  • the passage 26 comprises a bridge 32 extending above the bogie 16, located at a level intermediate that of the platform 24 and that of the stage 21, and connected at one end to the platform 24 by a lower staircase 34, and at the opposite end, to the floor 21 by an upper staircase 36.
  • the passage 28 extends between the platform 24 and the traveler compartment of the stage 19.
  • the passage 28 comprises a bridge 38 extending above the bogie 16, and at the ends of the bridge 38, stairs 40 going down to each of floors 18 and 19.
  • the passage 30 extends between the passenger compartment of the stage 20 and that of the stage 21.
  • the passage 30 comprises a bridge 42 extending between the passenger compartments of the stages 20 and 21.
  • the stage 18 has no platform 24 adjacent to the portion 10 and the passages 26 and 28 open into the passenger compartment of this stage.
  • the passages 26, 28 and 30 extend substantially parallel to each other, in the direction L.
  • the passages 26, 28 and 30 are distinct and offset transversely to the direction L.
  • the passage 30 is located transversely between the passages 26 and 28.
  • the gateway 42 is located transversely between the gateways 32 and 38, the gateways 32 and 38 being situated substantially at the same level, and the gateway 42 being located at a level higher than that of the gateways 32 and 38.
  • a passenger accessing the platform 24 has the option either to enter the compartment of the floor 18 of the car 4, or to pass in the car 6 through the passage 26 to go upstairs 21 (Arrow F1), or take passage 28 to access floor 19 (Arrow F2).
  • the prediction of a gangway passage to move from a lower floor of a car to the top floor of the other car in the gangway area between the passenger compartments of the different floors of cars avoids having to provide a staircase even inside a car, which increases the space available to place seats, or to increase the space between seats and improve comfort, or to accommodate technical equipment or comfort equipment for passengers.
  • a passenger on level 21 has the option to either take passage 26 to go directly to platform 24 (Arrow F1), or to take passage 30 to go to floor 20 of the car 4 (Arrow F3).
  • Each passage 26, 28, 30 comprises only two accesses, one opening to one of the stages 18, 19, 20 and 21 and the other to another stage among the stages 18, 19, 20, 21.
  • each passage 26 , 28, 30 has no access door to board cars.
  • the doors 22 are offset relative to the gangway device along the car.
  • the gangways 32, 38 extend over the bogie 16, which limits the length of the device 2 and preserve the volume available for the passenger compartments.
  • the length L1 ( Figure 1 ) of the device 2, taken between the ends of the stairs 34, 36 and 40 farthest, is preferably less than 7 m, especially less than 5.60 m.
  • the length L2 ( Figure 1 ) Bridges 32 and 42, taken between their stairs 34, 36 and 40 respectively, is preferably less than 5 m, including 4.30 m.
  • the cars 4 and 6 are similar, each has one of its end portions identical to the portion 10 and the other identical to the portion 12, the arrangement of cars 4 and 6 between their ends may be different.
  • the elevated central passage 30 allows to provide a technical space 44 between the bridge 42 and the bogie 16, this space 44 being adapted to receive equipment cars 4, 6, and in particular hydraulic or pneumatic lines, or cables d power supply or communication connecting cars 4 and 6.
  • a significant advantage of the invention lies in the arrangement of the passages 26, 28 and 30 relative to each other, making it possible to make the best use of the available volume, despite the limited height of the cars 4 and 6 in the portions 10 and 12, because of the presence of the bogie 16.
  • the propulsion means are then advantageously distributed along the train.
  • the gateway 42 is located in the center, under a higher central portion of the curved ceiling of the stages 20 and 21. It is therefore possible to provide a passage 30 having a sufficient height H1, about 1.90 m, while releasing a important technical space 44 under the bridge 42.
  • the gangways 32 and 38 are located on the sides, under side portions of the ceiling lower than the central portion. Nevertheless, a sufficient height H 2, at least 1.90 m, is provided above each of the bridges 32 and 38, because they are at levels lower than that of the gateway 42. The difference in level between the bridges 38 and 40 is less than H2.
  • the passages 26, 28 and 30 are therefore placed side by side in a compact manner by registering in the volume of the portions 10 and 12.
  • the passage 26 comprises two stairs 34 and 36 each located in one of the two cars 4 and 6.
  • the gangway device is integrable in two-stage cars with a reduced jig, and in particular an overall height less than 4.35 meters, this template allows the car to use most of the current railway tracks.
