Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a self-propelled passenger transport, and more particularly a self-propelled modular in terms of passenger capacity and maximum speed term.
  • the document DE-A-30 23 382 describes a self-propelled vehicle according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Train or motor train architectures are differentiated according to whether they are with concentrated or distributed motorization, depending on whether the car components are linked in an articulated or non-articulated manner, according to the arrangement and the number of driving and carrying bogies, and according to that they are at one or two levels.
  • a self-propelled vehicle comprises at least one motorized car, that is to say comprising at least one passenger compartment and at least one power train.
  • a self-propelled vehicle may therefore comprise only motorized cars or comprise non-motorized cars and at least one motorized car.
  • a train is composed of one or more motor vehicles and a number of passenger cars.
  • a power unit is not accessible to passengers and includes among other things a power train.
  • the traction chain comprises a plurality of equipment, which are either electrical components or electronic power and control components, adapted to pick up electrical energy from a traction source (for example a catenary line), transform it and convert it into electric power supply signals of electric motors of the driving bogies to ensure the train drive or the self-propelled.
  • a traction source for example a catenary line
  • the motorization is said to be concentrated when all the components of the traction chains are grouped together in a single location, for example in the motor of a train.
  • the engine is said to be distributed when the components of the power train are distributed over several cars, under the chassis of cars or on the roof.
  • a bogie conventionally comprises a bogie frame resting on two axles.
  • axle means generally a pair of coaxial bearing wheels on the rails of a railway.
  • a motor bogie comprises at least one electric motor for driving the wheels of at least one of its axles, called the driving axle.
  • a non-motorized bogie is called a carrier bogie.
  • Two adjacent cars are said to be "articulated” (or in articulated connection) when a first car is supported by one of these ends on a bogie and the end opposite the second car rests on the end of the first.
  • the bogie is therefore straddling under the ends of the two adjacent cars.
  • a self-propelled car consisting of two articulated cars therefore has three bogies, since the free ends of the two cars each rest on a bogie.
  • a self-propelled car consisting of two non-articulated cars therefore has four bogies.
  • a car is called at a level when it has a passenger compartment on a single floor level, and it is said at two levels when it has two compartments of travelers on two levels, superimposed one above the other. 'other.
  • This type of motorization requires a large mass of power cables needed to connect the energy harvesting device (s) to the motors through each traction equipment, cables that run between all cars equipped with either a device capture, either a traction chain equipment or a bogie engine.
  • This architecture has a reduced passenger capacity compared to a self-propelled car of identical length, since the engines are not accessible to passengers.
  • the invention proposes a passenger railcar according to claim 1.
  • the car is fully articulated, that is to say, the cars are all articulated together in pairs.
  • a bogie is arranged astride the two adjacent ends of two adjacent cars, the free ends of the pilot cars resting on a single bogie.
  • This intermediate car will be called motorized intermediate car.
  • the motorcar is therefore concentrated motorization, the concentration taking place in three cars.
  • a motor bogie is disposed under one of the two ends of the two pilot cars and the motorized intermediate car comprising a traction chain.
  • each car comprising a traction chain is supported at both ends by a motor bogie and a bogie carrier, or by two motor bogies.
  • the self-propelled vehicle comprises, between the motorized intermediate car and each of the pilot cars, at least one intermediate car devoid of a power train.
  • this intermediate car does not have a power train, it is called a trailer.
  • a trailer is supported at at least one of its ends by a bogie carrier.
  • a trailer is supported at these ends either by a bogie carrier and a bogie engine, or by two bogies carriers.
  • a self-propelled vehicle according to the invention therefore complies with a rule of alternation of cars comprising a traction chain and not including, and a rule of alternating motor bogies and carrier bogies to meet the maximum load at the axle.
  • the balancing of the masses on each bogie and bogie engine is also obtained by optimizing the distribution of different traction equipment or auxiliaries of the railcar, and the interior of the cars that differs depending on the desired comfort (type and number of different seats depending on the class of the car).
  • the interior of the motorized intermediate car in particular depends on the mass of the or traction chains, which themselves depend on the desired performance of the self-propelled (multi-tension traction, maximum speed, etc.). For example, if the mass of traction equipment installed is high, the interior of the motorized intermediate car will be lightened and designed as a bar car, a car offering services or having a reduced passenger capacity compared to the capacity of the trailers. .
  • Each traction chain drives at least one driving axle of the engine or bogies arranged under one or both ends of cars in which are arranged one or more traction chains.
  • the self-propelled vehicle can thus comprise three to six drive axles, depending on whether the engine bogie of each pilot car has one or two drive axles, and that the motorized intermediate car is supported by one or two motor bogies having only one driving axle each. .
  • An advantage of a fully articulated architecture is that the railcar is more stable in the event of a derailment. Due to the articulated architecture, the resistance to progress and therefore the energy consumption required to drive the vehicle remains limited compared to a non-articulated self-propelled vehicle of the same length, since there are fewer bogies. Maintenance operations are also reduced. Due to the self-propelled composition, the vehicle offers a large capacity since the entire length of the vehicle is used to receive passengers.
  • An advantage of concentrating the powertrains in the pilot cars and in a single motorized intermediate car makes it possible to better protect and control the fires by physically separating the traction chains from each other, and physically separating the traction chains from the compartments. passengers.
  • a self-propelled A comprises seven trailers 3 and a motorized intermediate car 4 arranged between two pilot cars 2.
  • a first pilot car 2 is located at a first end of the railcar A (starting from the left on the figure 1 ). It has a free end, where is located a driver's cab 9, and rests on a bogie engine 6 consisting of two drive axles 5.
  • a first traction chain 8 is disposed under the passenger compartment 10 of the first pilot car 2.
  • a its opposite end, the pilot car 2 is articulated with a first trailer 3. The two ends vis-à-vis the cars 2 and 3 based on a single bogie engine 6, consisting of two drive axles 5.
  • the first trailer 3 thus shares at its first end a bogie engine 6 with the pilot car 2, and shares at its other end a bogie carrier 7 with the second trailer 3 adjacent.
  • the second trailer 3 is articulated to the first trailer 3 and the third trailer 3.
  • the second trailer 3 shares with each of the first and the third trailer 3 a bogie carrier 7.
  • the third trailer 3 is hinged to a motorized intermediate car 4, located in the railcar of this embodiment in fifth position from the left.
  • the motorized intermediate car 4 shares, at each of these ends, a motor bogie 6 with the adjacent trailers.
  • Two traction chains 8 are arranged under the passenger compartment 10 and feed the motors of the motor bogies -composed each of two drive axles- located at each end of the motorized intermediate car 4.
  • the following four trailers 3 are also hinged and rest on carrier bogies 7, except for the ends of trailers 3 articulated with the motorized intermediate car 4 or with the pilot car 2, which are based on motor bogies 6.
  • the second Pilot car 2 is identical to the first.
  • All cars 2, 3, 4 of railcar A have a passenger compartment 10. Each of the cars 2, 3, 4 communicates with the or each adjacent car by a gangway 11. As the vehicle is fully articulated, the self-propelled figure 1 has eleven bogies, six motorized bogies 6 and five carrying bogies 7, for a length of about 200 m. In this embodiment, all the axles of the motor bogies are motorized. Such an EMU can carry at least 550 passengers at a commercial speed of at least 330 km / h.
  • Fig. 1 schematically represents the location of the traction chains 8 under the entire length of the passenger compartments 10 of the cars 2 and 4, but according to the effective space requirement of the various components of the traction chain 8, this may extend in full or in part only under the floor of passenger compartments 10.
  • the traction chains 8 of the pilot cars 2 can be arranged in intermediate compartments between the driver's cab 9 and the passenger compartment 10.
  • each of the pilot cars 2 is provided with a pantograph 12 for capturing electrical energy on a catenary line (not shown).
  • a high voltage cable 13 distributes the electrical energy captured by each pantograph 12 to the drive train 8 located in the motorized intermediate car 4.
  • the cables 13 are shown on the outside of the cars. mixed lines. In practice, these cables extend for example on the roof.
  • the concentration of the traction chains 8 and the driving bogies 6 on a very limited number of cars makes it possible to limit the mass of the cables required, since only high voltage cables 13 extend between the pilot cars 2 and the traction chain. of the motorized intermediate car 4. These cables have a mass less than the mass of the power cables of the architectures of the railcars of the prior art. The complexity of the wiring is also significantly reduced.
  • the figure 2 represents in the form of a table two possible configurations claimed of the self-propelled according to the first embodiment, given by way of example. Numbered only are pilot cars 2, motorized cars 4, traction chains 8, engine bogies 6, drive axles 5, carrier bogies 7, passenger capacity and possible operating speeds.
  • a self-propelled car consisting of seven cars, comprising two pilot cars 2, four trailers 3, a motorized intermediate car 4 and four motorized axles 5, requires only three traction chains 8.
  • a single traction chain 8 is therefore arranged in the intermediate car motorized 4, unlike the variants of the first embodiment not claimed.
  • two motor bogies 6 support both ends of the motorized car 4, but each has only one drive axle 5.
  • the place released by the second traction chain can be exploited to install auxiliary equipment or mass released in this way can be used to install more seats in the compartment 10 of the motorized intermediate car 4.
  • only the bogies under the free ends of the pilot cars 2 are motorized, and they each comprise two drive axles 5.
  • This variant Seven cars thus have four engine bogies 6 but six drive axles 5.
  • This self-propelled vehicle can carry between 350 and 400 passengers (depending on interior fittings) and travel at least 300 km / h.
  • the second variant of ten cars of the self-propelled according to the invention is identical to the variant comprising seven cars except that it comprises three additional trailers. It can have the same performance as the self-propelled A of the first embodiment by increasing the power to the axle.
  • the self-propelled vehicle according to the invention is completely flexible in terms of passenger capacity and speed since it can include seven to eleven cars, three traction chains 8, three to six drive axles 5 distributed over three to four bogies 6 engines and can reach a maximum speed of between 140 and 350 km / h.
  • This modularity is achieved by the simplification of the types of cars (drivers 2, trailers 3 and motorized 4) while applying the alternating rule of trailers and cars receiving a traction chain 8 and the alternating rule of the motor bogies 6 and carrier bogies 7 to respect the maximum load on the axle.
  • self-propelled A has only one-level cars.
  • the pilot cars 2 and the intermediate cars 3, 4 are at two levels, such as the figure 3 represents him.
  • the lower level of a pilot car 2 and the motorized intermediate car 4 receiving a traction chain 8 serves to house this or these traction chains 8, the other level being reserved for travelers.
  • the interconnections 11 are placed high to move from one trailer 3 to another.
  • the interconnections between the pilot cars 2 and the adjacent trailers 3 are at a low level.
  • a staircase (not shown) disposed in the pilot car 2 and in the trailers 3 allow to reach the high level from the access doors (not shown) of the cars 2, 3, 4.
