Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a front carriage of a train equipped with a front structure that absorbs energy in case of collision.
  • the locomotive or the front carriage of trains is equipped with front structures that absorb energy by plastically deforming in case of head-on collision to protect the drivers cab.
  • EP-A-0802100 discloses a railway vehicle provided with an energy absorbing structure defining a progressive deformation.
  • the vehicle has zones of plastic deformation formed by fixed or interchangeable energy absorbers provided at the front part of the chassis of the vehicle.
  • the zones of deformation are defined by absorbers with varying energy absorption characteristics depending on the extent of deformation.
  • the absorbing zones are defined: by a first energy absorbing buffer, which is inserted into a casing and directly engages on the rear face of an automatic coupler; and by at least a second energy absorber connected to the front part of the chassis.
  • Several controlled deformation absorbers are provided in the chassis behind the indeformable front part.
  • EP-A-0952062 discloses a collision protection device, which has energy-absorbing elements, which are located at the sides of a central buffer coupling.
  • FR-A-2879549 discloses a shock absorbing device for high-speed train.
  • the device has a modular absorber and an energy absorption mechanism with two bars coupled to a compressible carrier structure for energy absorption along a direction of the bars.
  • a coupling slide slides along the bars to machine the bars.
  • the bars are connected at their front end to a front end of the structure for simultaneous displacement of the bar and the front end during compression of the structure.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a front carriage of a train equipped with a front structure that absorbs energy in case of collision, which allows the above-stated needs to be met in a simple and economic manner.
  • a front carriage of a train equipped with a front structure that absorbs energy in case of collision is provided, as defined in claim 1.
  • reference numeral 1 indicates a train in its entirety; in the described example, the train 1 is a high-speed one formed by eight carriages, of which only the front carriage 2 is partially shown. The eight carriages are coupled along a longitudinal direction of travel 3 of the train 1: carriage 2 and the end carriage are powered and equipped with a cab 4, four intermediate carriages are drawn and two intermediate carriages are powered and positioned between the drawn ones.
  • the train 1 is designed to meet the directives imposed by the TSI European regulations of 2002, without evident plastic deformation of the cabs 4.
  • the carriage 2 comprises a load-carrying frame 5, or body, defining the cab 4, and is shown without the body or the aerodynamic outer skin that covers the frame 5.
  • the carriage 2 also comprises an automatic coupler 6, which in turn comprises a front head 7, of known type, placed on the outside of the above-mentioned body, and a longitudinal rear rod 8.
  • the rod 8 comprises a rear tubular portion 9 (not visible) housed in a fixed position in the front end of a tube 10.
  • the tube 10 engages a portion 11 of the body 5, is connected to the body 5 via a breakable device 12 (not described in detail) and can move back into a longitudinal lower compartment 14 of the body 5 after device 12 breaks.
  • portion 11 defines the front of the compartment 14 and has a cylindrical seat 15, which longitudinally guides the tube 10 during retraction into the compartment 14.
  • the front end of the tube 10 is fixed to a substantially vertical portal or support plate 16, by welding for example, and carries a fixed shoulder 17, behind the plate 16, in particular, defined by an external ring that longitudinally faces portion 11 in order to strike against portion 11 and define an end stop for the backward travel of the tube 10.
  • Plate 16 is placed in front of a vertical plate 22, frontally defining the bottom part of the cab 4, is spaced apart from plate 22 and has an aperture 23 ( Figure 1 ) through which the rod 8 passes.
  • the rod 8 comprises a front portion 18 and an intermediate tubular portion 19, which are positioned in front of plate 16, are coaxial with portion 9 and are coupled together via a hydraulic cartridge (not shown), defining a reversible type of relative longitudinal sliding.
  • Portion 19 is connected to plate 16 via a breakable device 20 (not described in detail) and can move back longitudinally to plastically deform portion 9 when device 20 breaks in the case of head-on collision against an obstacle 25.
  • portion 9 absorbs energy in a first stage of deformation or absorption during the collision (curve segment (a) in Figure 7 ).
  • a front structure 24 is provided to absorb energy in a second and in a third stage following the first one.
  • Structure 24 is symmetrical with respect to an ideal vertical plane on which direction 3 lies and comprises two absorbers 27 defined by truncated-cone boxed elements placed on opposite sides of portion 19 and equipped with respective vertical frontal anti-climber plates 28, and a central absorber 29 defined by a honeycomb structure placed above portion 19.
  • the absorbers 27 and 29 are mounted in fixed positions, projecting from a front face 30 of plate 16 and are plastically deformable to absorb energy in the second stage (curve segment (b) in Figure 7 ) during the collision.
  • Structure 24 also comprises two lower absorbers 32 and two upper absorbers 34, which are placed behind plate 16, connect plates 16 and 22 together, are plastically deformable to absorb energy in the third stage (curve segment (c) in Figure 7 ) during the collision and are horizontally aligned with absorbers 27 and absorber 29 respectively.
  • absorbers 32 and 27 are mutually coaxial along axes parallel to direction 3.
  • structure 24 comprises two pairs of stops 36, which are relatively rigid, carried by face 30 in fixed, projecting positions and, with respect to the entrance of aperture 23 in face 30, have a longitudinal bulk greater or equal to the length of the head 7.
  • Figure 6 shows a theoretical curve, set by design, and related to the longitudinal compression resistance Y that the carriage 2 exerts as a function of the longitudinal travel X effected by the obstacle 25 towards the body 5, starting from the moment in which the obstacle 25 is struck by the head 7.
  • Figure 7 shows an experimental curve of the resistance Y as a function of time T during a collision at 74 km/h against an obstacle 25 defined by a wagon that is stationary, but free to roll on the railway track.
  • the absorbers 9, 27, 29, 32 and 34 are able to absorb an overall maximum quantity of energy of approximately 6 MJ and progressively collapse in stages, i.e. they start to plastically deform at different moments as the travel X increases.
  • the element that is first subjected to impact is the coupler 6 ( Figure 2 ): when the longitudinal compression exerted by the obstacle 25 on the head 7 exceeds a preset threshold (after partial relative sliding between portions 18 and 19, which is in function of the speed of impact and is defined by the above-mentioned hydraulic cartridge), device 20 breaks so as to allow portion 19 to move back to plastically deform portion 9, which offers resistance Y equal to a value A (preferably constant and equal to approximately 1.4 * 10 6 N) and for a maximum travel B (preferably equal to approximately 0.40 m).
  • a preset threshold after partial relative sliding between portions 18 and 19, which is in function of the speed of impact and is defined by the above-mentioned hydraulic cartridge
  • device 20 breaks so as to allow portion 19 to move back to plastically deform portion 9, which offers resistance Y equal to a value A (preferably constant and equal to approximately 1.4 * 10 6 N) and for a maximum travel B (preferably equal to approximately 0.40 m).
  • the coupler 6 moves back longitudinally, essentially without any resistance.
  • the rod 8 moves back freely, guided by tube 10, while tube 10 remains fixed with respect to plates 16 and 22.
  • the second stage starts when the obstacle 25 comes into contact with plates 28 ( Figure 3 ), in particular, after the obstacle 25 has covered an "unchecked" distance C (approximately 0.7 m), i.e. travel in which the rod 8 has offered substantially zero longitudinal resistance (curve segment (d) in Figure 7 ) once the deformation of portion 9 has terminated.
  • C approximately 0.7 m
  • absorbers 27 and 29 offer resistance Y equal to a value D for a maximum travel E (preferably equal to approximately 0.8 m).
  • Value D is greater than value A and, in particular, grows as travel E increases (for example, from approximately 2.8 * 10 6 N up to approximately 3 * 10 6 N).
  • the second stage terminates when the obstacle 25 hits the stops 36 ( Figure 4 ): in this phase, it has been experimentally found that the resistance Y has a peak (curve segment (e) in Figure 7 ).
  • the head 7 remains seated between the obstacle 25 and plate 16, without affecting the progress of the deformation that has been planned for the third stage.
  • tube 10 is pushed longitudinally by plate 10, causing device 12 to break. Afterwards, tube 10 is free to slide longitudinally in compartment 14 beneath the cab 4, while being guided by portion 11.
  • the thrust of the obstacle 25 on the stops 36 and, consequently, on plate 16 causes deformation of absorbers 32 and 34, which offer resistance Y equal to a value G, greater than value D, for a maximum travel of H (preferably equal to approximately 0.8 m).
  • G is constant and approximately equal to 3.5 * 10 6 N.
  • portion 9 and absorbers 27 and 29 does not take place in parallel, but in sequence, for which in collisions at relatively low speeds, only portion 9 deforms; it is therefore possible to repair the train 1 by just substituting the coupler 6, without having to intervene on the absorbers carried by plate 16.
  • the coupler 6 does not interfere with the energy absorption that takes place in the second and third stages, thanks to the fact that after travel B, the coupler 6 moves back freely, or essentially without offering resistance, and thanks to the space assured by the stops 36 in front of the face 30.
  • absorbers 32 and 34 in synergy with absorbers 27 and 29, allow a high overall level of energy to be absorbed, whereby the structure 24 is effective for protecting cabs of high-speed trains.
  • the structure 24 could comprise an obstacle deflector placed below absorbers 27 to laterally deflect relatively low obstacles and defining further plastic deformation.
