Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a head module for a rail vehicle, in particular for high-speed traffic, with a safety cell for the driver, which comprises a frontal structure, a spaced rearward structure in the longitudinal direction of the rail vehicle and on both longitudinal sides of the rail vehicle each having a lateral framework structure, wherein the frontal structure extends in the center region of the rail vehicle in the direction of the vertical axis of the rail vehicle to the height range defined by the lower edge of the windshield of the rail vehicle, and the respective lateral truss structure in the event of a crash supports the frontal structure against the rear second structure.
  • the invention further relates to a rail vehicle with a head module according to the invention.
  • Such a head module is known, for example, from EP 0 888 946 B1.
  • the frontal structure and the front half of the lateral truss structures of the safety cell extend in the direction of the vertical axis of the rail vehicle to approximately the height range of the lower edge of the windshield of the rail vehicle.
  • the safety cell surrounds the cab of the driver or is a component of this cabin.
  • a central function of the safety cell is to provide the driver in the event of a crash sufficiently large survival space in the event that he is no longer able to leave the driver's cab in time for an obstacle to the impact.
  • the safety cell is also plastically deformed to a certain extent in order to absorb part of the impact energy.
  • the TSI High-Speed Rolling Stock proposes three different crash scenarios: Scenario 1: Passenger train versus passenger train at a relative speed of 36 km / h; Scenario 2: Passenger train towards the end of a freight train (mass 80 t) at a relative speed of 36 km / h; Scenario 3: Passenger train against a rigid block (mass 15 t) at a relative speed of 1 10 km / h.
  • Scenario 3 is intended to simulate a collision with an obstacle standing on a railroad crossing, such as a loaded truck. However, this scenario has shown that this scenario only incorrectly simulates the actual conditions in the event of a collision with such an obstacle. Therefore, it is intended to modify this scenario so that the passenger train collides with a deformable obstacle in the form of a tank truck of mass 15 t.
  • the known safety cells provide insufficient protection for the vehicle driver.
  • the deforming obstacle rolls on the vehicle head and deformed areas of the obstacle penetrate deep into the driver's cab, for example via the opening of the windshield.
  • arise in the rolling movement of the obstacle on the vehicle head unlike the previous rigid block in the upper half of the head module obliquely downward loads, for which the structures of the previous vehicle heads are not designed, so that there is a strong deformation of the head module can come, which does not provide sufficient survival space for the driver.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object to provide a head module or a rail vehicle of the type mentioned above, which does not have the disadvantages mentioned above, or at least to a much lesser extent and in particular under real crash situations sufficient protection for the driver allows ,
  • the present invention solves this problem, starting from a head module according to the preamble of claim 1 by the features stated in the characterizing part of claim 1.
  • the present invention is based on the technical teaching that, under real crash situations, adequate protection is achieved for the vehicle driver when the frontal structure on both longitudinal sides of the rail vehicle respectively comprises a pillar element which extends in the direction of the vertical axis of the rail vehicle Lower edge of the windshield also extends, and the respective pillar element is rigidly supported in the region of its upper end in the event of a crash by the associated lateral truss structure against the rear second structure.
  • the truss structures can be designed so that they undergo a certain plastic deformation in certain areas, which, however, may in any case only be so small that the driver still has sufficient survival space available.
  • the respective truss structure is designed in such a way that, in a given crash situation, it is not plastically deformed substantially with a lateral impact on a standard deformable obstacle simulating a loaded truck.
  • the survival space for the vehicle driver is ensured in an advantageous manner. It is preferably provided that these conditions are met at least for a crash, in which the lateral impact occurs at a relative speed of 1 10 km / h and the deformable obstacle has a mass of 15 t.
  • the rigid support in the column elements can be done in any suitable manner. It is preferably provided that at least one of the truss structures has a first support element which extends from the upper end region of the associated pillar element downwards in the direction of the rear structure. This is particularly in connection with the support of the obliquely downwardly acting loads by tending to roll obstacle of advantage.
  • the first carrier element may extend as far as a further carrier element, for example a carrier of the truss structure extending in the longitudinal direction of the rail vehicle.
  • the first support element extends to the rear structure, so that a simple and reliable support is ensured on the rear structure.
  • At least one of the truss structures has a second carrier element which extends from the upper end region of the associated pillar element upwards in the direction of the rear structure.
  • the second support element extends only to a further carrier element, for example a further carrier of the truss structure extending in the longitudinal direction of the rail vehicle.
  • the second carrier element extends up to the rear structure, in order to ensure reliable support on the rear structure in a simple manner.
  • the frontal structure has at least one frontal coupling device which defines a front coupling plane extending in the direction of the vertical axis of the rail vehicle, in whose region at least one impact energy absorbing element pointing forwards in the longitudinal direction of the rail vehicle frontal structure can be coupled.
  • the respective pillar element has a projection which points forwards in the longitudinal direction of the rail vehicle and projects beyond the coupling plane in the longitudinal direction of the rail vehicle to the front. This makes it possible in an advantageous manner to shift the initiation of the counter-pulse on the obstacle forward, so that the rolling movement of the obstacle is counteracted even earlier.
  • the projection is made for the projection to have a contact region located in the longitudinal direction of the rail vehicle and the distance between the contact region of the projection and the coupling plane in the longitudinal direction of the rail vehicle to be greater than the final length of an im Area of the coupling plane mounted impact energy dissipation element in the state of fully utilized energy consumption.
  • the front upper edge of the projection is preferably arranged as high as possible in order to achieve a favorable, possible high-lying introduction of the counter-pulse in the obstacle.
  • the projection extends in the direction of the vertical axis of the rail vehicle from the height region of the lower edge of the windshield to the upper end of the pillar element.
  • At least one first impact energy dissipation element pointing forwards in the longitudinal direction of the rail vehicle is fastened to the frontal structure.
  • the first impact energy consumption element is arranged centrally in the direction of the transverse axis of the rail vehicle in order to achieve a favorable deformation behavior of the obstacle.
  • the first impact energy absorbing element extends in the direction of the vertical axis of the rail vehicle into the region of the lower edge of the windshield, in order to achieve the most favorable leverage conditions on the obstacle as low as possible during the impact energy consumption.
  • a central vehicle coupling unit is provided. At the side of the vehicle coupling unit, a second impact energy dissipation element pointing forwards in the longitudinal direction of the rail vehicle is then attached to the frontal structure. To achieve the best possible low energy consumption of impact energy. It is preferably provided that the second impact energy absorbing element has at its front end means for preventing climbing up.
  • the rear structure can basically be constructed in any suitable manner. It preferably comprises a ring frame of the rail vehicle, which can be used to achieve a particularly simple and reliable configuration.
  • the present invention further relates to a rail vehicle with a head module according to the invention.
  • the present invention can be used particularly advantageously in connection with rail vehicles for high-speed traffic. It goes without saying, that they can also be used for rail vehicles for any other speed ranges, so both in long-distance and in local transport in an advantageous manner.

  • the respective column element 103.5 has a height (ie a dimension in the direction of the vertical axis H) which corresponds to approximately 75% of the height of the front plate 103.4, so that the safety cell 103 on the longitudinal sides of the rail vehicle 101 extends far above the lower edge of the windshield 105, extending approximately to half the height of the windshield. It is understood, however, that in other variants of the invention, a different height of the column elements may be provided.
  • the respective truss structure 103.3 is designed in such a way that, in such a predetermined crash situation, it is essentially not plastically deformed with a lateral impact on a standard deformable obstacle simulating a loaded truck.
