Description

La présente invention concerne un véhicule ferroviaire du type comprenant un plancher comprenant au moins une plate-forme mobile et une plate-forme standard, la plate-forme mobile étant disposée en regard d'une porte du véhicule ferroviaire, la plate-forme mobile étant mobile en translation verticale de sorte que la hauteur de la plate-forme mobile est variable afin de permettre d'adapter la hauteur de ladite plate-forme à la hauteur d'un quai de véhicule ferroviaire, au moins un premier marchepied mobile en translation en hauteur et selon une direction transversale étant prévu pour combler l'espace en largeur entre la plate-forme mobile et le quai lorsque ledit marchepied est dans une position déployée.The present invention relates to a railway vehicle of the type comprising a floor comprising at least one mobile platform and a standard platform, the mobile platform being arranged opposite a door of the railway vehicle, the mobile platform being mobile in vertical translation so that the height of the mobile platform is variable in order to make it possible to adapt the height of said platform to the height of a railway vehicle platform, at least a first mobile step in translation in translation. height and in a transverse direction being provided to fill the width space between the mobile platform and the platform when said step is in an extended position.

Certains véhicules ferroviaires sont adaptés pour faciliter l'accès à, et accueillir des voyageurs à mobilité réduite, se déplaçant par exemple au moyen d'un fauteuil roulant.Certain railway vehicles are adapted to facilitate access to and accommodate passengers with reduced mobility, for example by using a wheelchair.

Dans de tels véhicules, on prévoit généralement d'abaisser la hauteur de plancher de la zone se trouvant en regard d'une porte du véhicule afin d'approcher au plus près de la hauteur du quai et éviter ainsi la présence de marches hautes rendant l'accès au véhicule ferroviaire difficile, notamment pour un fauteuil roulant. Le document DE-199 14 965 décrit un tel véhicule.In such vehicles, it is generally expected to lower the floor height of the area facing a door of the vehicle to approach closer to the height of the dock and thus avoid the presence of high steps making the access to the railway vehicle difficult, especially for a wheelchair. The document DE-199 14 965 describes such a vehicle.

Afin de combler l'espace entre la plate-forme abaissée et le quai, un marchepied est prévu pour se déplacer en hauteur avec la plate-forme et pour se déplacer latéralement jusqu'au quai. Ainsi, un voyageur à mobilité réduite peut monter ou descendre du véhicule ferroviaire simplement sans obstacle, tel qu'une marche, à franchir. Le document DE-9401755 décrit un tel marchepied mobile.In order to fill the space between the lowered platform and the dock, a step is provided to move up with the platform and to move laterally to the dock. Thus, a passenger with reduced mobility can get on or off the rail vehicle simply without obstacle, such as a walk, to cross. The document DE-9401755 describes such a moving step.

Cependant, la plate-forme et le marchepied ne sont généralement actionnés que lorsqu'un voyageur à mobilité réduite, une poussette ou un trolley de marchandise doivent monter ou descendre du véhicule. Pour les autres passagers, la plate-forme reste immobile et les passagers franchissent la différence de hauteur entre la plate-forme et le quai sans assistance. II se peut que cette différence de hauteur soit trop importante pour certains passagers qui ont alors des difficultés pour monter ou descendre du véhicule.However, the platform and the step are generally operated only when a passenger with reduced mobility, a stroller or a trolley of goods must go up or down the vehicle. For other passengers, the platform remains stationary and the passengers cross the difference in height between the platform and the platform without assistance. This difference in height may be too great for some passengers who then have difficulty getting on or off the vehicle.

Dans certains cas, si la différence de hauteur entre le plancher du véhicule et la hauteur du quai est trop importante, on amène le marchepied à hauteur du quai. Le marchepied se déplaçant avec la plate-forme, il est nécessaire d'abaisser toute la plate-forme pour placer le marchepied à la hauteur requise, ce qui est peu pratique, d'autant qu'une marche se crée entre la plate-forme abaissée et le reste de la structure du plancher du véhicule ferroviaire, ce qui gêne les déplacements de voyageurs à l'intérieur du véhicule ferroviaire.In some cases, if the difference in height between the floor of the vehicle and the height of the dock is too great, it brings the step to the height of the dock. As the footboard moves with the platform, it is necessary to lower the entire platform to set the step to the required height, which is practical, especially since a step is created between the lowered platform and the rest of the floor structure of the railway vehicle, which hinders the movement of passengers inside the railway vehicle.

L'invention vise à pallier ces inconvénients en proposant un véhicule ferroviaire du type précité permettant de faciliter l'accès au véhicule tant aux passagers à mobilité réduite qu'aux autres passagers sans nécessiter de mouvements de la plate-forme importants.The invention aims to overcome these disadvantages by providing a railway vehicle of the aforementioned type to facilitate access to the vehicle for both passengers with reduced mobility and other passengers without requiring significant platform movements.

In addition, the terms "longitudinal" and "transverse" are defined respectively according to the length and width of the railway vehicle.

En référence aux Fig. 1 et 2, on décrit une voiture de véhicule ferroviaire 1 comprenant une caisse 2 formée d'un plancher 4, de parois latérales et d'un pavillon 8. La caisse 2 comprend au moins une porte 10 permettant l'accès à l'intérieur de la voiture de véhicule ferroviaire 1. Selon le mode de réalisation représenté, la porte 10 est disposée sensiblement au centre de chaque paroi latérale de la caisse 2. La position longitudinale de la porte sur la paroi est toutefois indifférente pour ce qui concerne l'application de l'invention proposéeWith reference to Fig. 1 and 2 , a rail vehicle car 1 comprising a body 2 formed of a floor 4, side walls and a roof 8 is described. The body 2 comprises at least one door 10 allowing access to the interior of the car. 1. According to the embodiment shown, the door 10 is disposed substantially in the center of each side wall of the body 2. The longitudinal position of the door on the wall is however indifferent as far as the application of the door is concerned. proposed invention

La voiture repose, de façon classique, sur deux bogies 12 prévus à chaque partie extrême de la caisse 2. Le plancher 4 comprend au moins une plate-forme standard 16 sensiblement plane. Par standard, on entend une plate-forme dont la hauteur de plancher est classique pour un véhicule ferroviaire. La hauteur de plancher de la plate-forme standard est par exemple sensiblement comprise entre 1000 mm et 1200 mm par rapport aux rails sur lesquels le véhicule ferroviaire 1 est destiné à circuler.The car is based, in a conventional manner, on two bogies 12 provided at each end of the body 2. The floor 4 comprises at least one standard platform 16 substantially flat. By standard is meant a platform whose floor height is conventional for a railway vehicle. The floor height of the standard platform is for example substantially between 1000 mm and 1200 mm with respect to the rails on which the railway vehicle 1 is intended to circulate.

Selon un mode de réalisation possible, la plate-forme standard 16 comprend, le long d'une paroi latérale, une zone comprenant une pluralité de sièges pour l'accueil de voyageurs et, le long de l'autre paroi latérale en regard de ladite zone, une zone dépourvue de siège pour l'accueil de fauteuils roulants 18 pour des voyageurs à mobilité réduite.According to one possible embodiment, the standard platform 16 comprises, along a side wall, an area comprising a plurality of seats for the reception of travelers and, along the other side wall facing said zone, a seat-free area for accommodating wheelchairs 18 for passengers with reduced mobility.

Le plancher 4 comprend en outre au moins une plate-forme mobile 22 disposée en regard des portes 10 de la voiture 1. La plate-forme 22 est mobile en hauteur par rapport à la plate-forme standard 16 de sorte qu'elle peut être amenée à la hauteur d'un quai 24 dont la hauteur peut varier selon les gares où s'arrête le train. Dans les figures 2 à 5 proposées, sont représentées à titre d'illustration deux hauteurs différentes de quais :

  • un quai haut 24a présentant par exemple une hauteur de 760mm (figures 2 et 3),
  • un quai bas 24b présentant par exemple une hauteur de 550 mm (figures 4 et 5).
The floor 4 further comprises at least one mobile platform 22 disposed opposite the doors 10 of the car 1. The platform 22 is movable in height relative to the standard platform 16 so that it can be brought to the height of a platform 24 whose height may vary depending on the stations where the train stops. In the Figures 2 to 5 proposed, are represented by way of illustration two different heights of platforms:
  • a high platform 24a having for example a height of 760mm ( Figures 2 and 3 )
  • a low platform 24b having for example a height of 550 mm ( Figures 4 and 5 ).

Lorsque le véhicule ferroviaire circule, la plate-forme mobile 22 de la voiture est disposée sensiblement à la même hauteur de plancher que celle de la plate-forme standard adjacente, c'est-à-dire à une hauteur sensiblement comprise entre 1000 mm et 1200 mm. De la sorte, les voyageurs peuvent circuler dans la voiture sur un plancher sensiblement plan et sans obstacle de type marche, ce qui facilite particulièrement la circulation des voyageurs à mobilité réduite. Si des différences de hauteur de plancher sont nécessaires, par exemple pour passer au-dessus des bogies, les différentes hauteurs de plancher sont reliées les unes aux autres par des pentes. Les caractéristiques, telles que la longueur et le gradient, des pentes sont définies en accord avec les normes afin que ces pentes ne soient pas trop raides pour les passagers. Ces pentes sont par exemple comprises entre 6% et 8%.When the rail vehicle is traveling, the mobile platform 22 of the car is disposed substantially at the same floor height as that of the adjacent standard platform, that is to say at a height substantially between 1000 mm and 1200 mm. In this way, travelers can travel in the car on a substantially level floor and without obstacle type walk, which particularly facilitates the movement of travelers with reduced mobility. If differences in floor height are required, for example to pass over the bogies, the different floor heights are connected to each other by slopes. Characteristics, such as length and gradient, are defined in accordance with standards so that these slopes are not too steep steep for passengers. These slopes are for example between 6% and 8%.

Lorsque le véhicule ferroviaire est arrêté à quai, la plate-forme mobile 22 est apte à se déplacer de sorte à descendre sous le niveau de plancher de la plate-forme standard 16 de sorte à être placée à une hauteur sensiblement égale à celle du quai 24. Un tel quai peut présenter différentes hauteurs selon la gare d'arrêt du train. Sur les figures 2 et 3, on a représenté un quai haut 24a, d'une hauteur sensiblement égale à 760 mm, et sur les figures 4 et 5, on a représenté un quai bas 24b, d'une hauteur sensiblement égale à 550 mm. Ainsi, la plate-forme mobile 22 est déplaçable jusqu'à une hauteur sensiblement égale à environ 550 mm pour s'adapter aux différentes hauteurs de quai 24. Ainsi, la hauteur de la plate-forme mobile 22 peut être adaptée à la hauteur du quai 24 de la gare à laquelle le train s'arrête, ce qui permet aux voyageurs à mobilité réduite de descendre ou de monter dans le véhicule ferroviaire sans recourir à une rampe externe.When the railway vehicle is stopped at the dock, the mobile platform 22 is able to move so as to descend below the floor level of the standard platform 16 so as to be placed at a height substantially equal to that of the dock 24. Such a platform may have different heights depending on the train stop station. On the Figures 2 and 3 , there is shown a high platform 24a, a height substantially equal to 760 mm, and on the Figures 4 and 5 , there is shown a low platform 24b, a height substantially equal to 550 mm. Thus, the mobile platform 22 is movable to a height substantially equal to about 550 mm to accommodate the different platform heights 24. Thus, the height of the mobile platform 22 can be adapted to the height of the platform. platform 24 of the station where the train stops, allowing passengers with reduced mobility to get off or board the rail vehicle without using an external ramp.

Afin de combler l'espace transversal entre la plate-forme mobile 22 et le quai 24, le véhicule ferroviaire comprend en outre un marchepied 26 mobile en hauteur et transversalement. Le marchepied 26 est mobile entre une position rétractée et une pluralité de positions déployées adaptées à différents cas de figure, comme décrit ultérieurement.In order to fill the transverse space between the mobile platform 22 and the platform 24, the railway vehicle further comprises a step 26 movable in height and transversely. The step 26 is movable between a retracted position and a plurality of deployed positions adapted to different cases, as described later.

Selon le mode de réalisation représenté sur les Fig. 2 à 5, le véhicule ferroviaire comprend deux marchepieds 26 disposés de part et d'autre de la plate-forme mobile 22 selon la direction transversale.According to the embodiment shown on the Fig. 2 to 5 , the railway vehicle comprises two steps 26 arranged on either side of the mobile platform 22 in the transverse direction.

En position rétractée, les marchepieds 26 s'étendent à l'intérieur de la voiture sur les côtés de la plate-forme mobile 22, comme représenté par le marchepied côté opposé au quai et donc non sollicité sur la droite des Fig. 2 à 5. Lorsque le véhicule ferroviaire est en mouvement, la plate-forme mobile 22 est élevée à la même hauteur que la plate-forme standard 16 afin de favoriser la circulation des passagers d'une extrémité à l'autre de la voiture et les marchepieds 26 s'étendent à une hauteur inférieure entre la plate-forme mobile 22 et l'ouvrant 10, générant une hauteur de marche conforme aux normes réglementant l'ergonomie d'accès. Selon le mode de réalisation représenté sur les Fig. 2 à 5, le marchepied 26 comprend, à son extrémité libre, un décrochement 28 qui s'étend en hauteur dans le prolongement de l'ouvrant 10, en position rétractée. Le décrochement 28 assure la continuité esthétique et technique entre le bas de l'ouvrant 10 et le châssis de caisse 14. Pour ce qui a trait à la continuité technique, le décrochement 28 est notamment doté d'un système périphérique d'étanchéité préservant l'habitacle contre le bruit et les ondes de pression qui se forment lorsque le véhicule ferroviaire roule à grande vitesse.In the retracted position, the steps 26 extend inside the car on the sides of the mobile platform 22, as represented by the step opposite the side of the wharf and therefore unsolicited on the right side of the car. Fig. 2 to 5 . When the railway vehicle is in motion, the mobile platform 22 is raised to the same height as the standard platform 16 to facilitate the movement of passengers from one end to the other of the car and the steps 26 s extend to a lower height between the mobile platform 22 and the opening 10, generating a walking height in accordance with the standards regulating the ergonomics of access. According to the embodiment shown on the Fig. 2 to 5 , the step 26 comprises, at its free end, a recess 28 which extends in height in the extension of the opening 10, in the retracted position. The step 28 ensures the aesthetic and technical continuity between the bottom of the opening 10 and the body frame 14. With regard to the technical continuity, the recess 28 is in particular provided with a peripheral sealing system preserving the cabin against noise and the pressure waves that form when the rail vehicle is traveling at high speed.

Selon un mode de réalisation non représenté, le marchepied 26 est sensiblement plan et est disposé complètement à l'intérieur du véhicule en position rétractée.According to an embodiment not shown, the step 26 is substantially flat and is disposed completely inside the vehicle in the retracted position.

Comme mentionné précédemment, les marchepieds 26 sont aptes à être déplacés dans une pluralité de positions déployées afin de combler l'espace transversal entre la plate-forme mobile 22 et le quai 24 pour permettre aux voyageurs de monter et descendre du véhicule ferroviaire 1 plus aisément. Le mouvement des marchepieds 26 se fait en hauteur et selon une direction transversale. Le mouvement des deux marchepieds 26 et le mouvement de la plate-forme mobile 22 sont commandés indépendamment les uns des autres.As mentioned above, the steps 26 are able to be moved in a plurality of deployed positions to fill the transverse space between the mobile platform 22 and the platform 24 to allow passengers to get on and off the railway vehicle 1 more easily . The movement of the steps 26 is in height and in a transverse direction. The movement of the two steps 26 and the movement of the mobile platform 22 are controlled independently of each other.

Le déplacement transversal d'un marchepied 26 est agencé pour que la partie extrême du marchepied se positionne sensiblement au droit du bord du quai 24 et sensiblement contre le bord du quai 24 afin qu'il n'y ait sensiblement pas d'espace libre selon la direction transversale entre le quai 24 et le marchepied 26, comme représenté par la partie gauche des Fig. 2 à 5 The transverse displacement of a step 26 is arranged so that the end portion of the step is positioned substantially at the edge of the edge of the platform 24 and substantially against the edge of the platform 24 so that there is substantially no free space according to the transverse direction between the platform 24 and the step 26, as represented by the left side of the Fig. 2 to 5

Le déplacement en hauteur des marchepieds 26 permet d'adapter la position des marchepieds 26 par rapport à la hauteur du quai auquel le véhicule ferroviaire est arrêté. Plusieurs cas de figure sont envisageables.The height displacement of the steps 26 makes it possible to adapt the position of the steps 26 with respect to the height of the platform to which the railway vehicle is stopped. Several scenarios are possible.

En position rétractée, le marchepied se trouve par exemple à une hauteur sensiblement égale à 760 mm, afin de pouvoir desservir de façon optimale les quais hauts 24a.In the retracted position, the step is for example at a height substantially equal to 760 mm, to be able to serve optimally the high platforms 24a.

Pour un quai haut 24a, par exemple présentant une hauteur sensiblement égale à 760 mm, le marchepied 26 est déplacé uniquement selon la direction transversale contre le quai 24a (figures 2 et 3). Si aucun voyageur à mobilité réduite se déplaçant sur un fauteuil roulant ou si d'autres éléments sur roues, tels que des poussettes, des trolleys ne doivent monter ou descendre du train, la plate-forme mobile 22 n'est pas déplacée et reste à la même hauteur que la plate-forme standard 16, comme représenté sur la figure 2. Les voyageurs descendent ou montent alors simplement la marche formée entre le marchepied 26 et la plate-forme mobile 22. Si un voyageur à mobilité réduite doit monter ou descendre du train, la plate-forme mobile 22 est abaissée de sorte à se trouver à la même hauteur que le marchepied 26, comme représenté sur la figure 3, et le voyageur à mobilité réduite peut monter ou descendre sans obstacle en hauteur à franchir. Pour un quai bas 24b, par exemple présentant une hauteur sensiblement égale à 550 mm, le marchepied 26 peut être abaissé de sorte à présenter une hauteur sensiblement égale à celle du quai ou peut être déplacé uniquement selon la direction transversale selon les cas de figures. En effet, comme représenté sur la Figure 4, si aucun voyageur à mobilité réduite se déplaçant sur un fauteuil roulant ou si d'autres éléments sur roues, tels que des poussettes, des trolleys ne doivent monter ou descendre du train, le marchepied 26 est déplacé uniquement selon la direction transversale de sorte à venir sensiblement au droit du bord du quai et à former une marche entre le quai 24b et le marchepied 26. La plate-forme mobile 22 n'est pas déplacée et reste à la même hauteur que la plate-forme standard 16. Les voyageurs descendent ou montent alors simplement la marche formée entre le marchepied 26 et la plate-forme mobile 22 et la marche formée entre le marchepied 26 et le quai 24b. La hauteur de telles marches est par exemple inférieure ou égale à 200 mm afin de respecter les normes spécifiant l'ergonomie d'accès à la voiture. Si un voyageur à mobilité réduite doit monter ou descendre du train, le marchepied 26 et la plate-forme mobile 22 sont abaissés de sorte à se trouver à la même hauteur que le quai 24b, comme représenté sur la figure 5, et le voyageur à mobilité réduite peut monter ou descendre sans obstacle en hauteur à franchir.For a high platform 24a, for example having a height substantially equal to 760 mm, the step 26 is moved only in the transverse direction against the platform 24a ( Figures 2 and 3 ). If no mobility-impaired passenger traveling on a wheelchair or other wheeled items, such as strollers, trolleys, need to get on or off the train, the mobile platform 22 is not moved and remains the same height as the standard platform 16, as shown on the figure 2 . The travelers come down or simply mount the step formed between the step 26 and the mobile platform 22. If a passenger with reduced mobility has to get on or off the train, the mobile platform 22 is lowered so as to be at the same height as the step 26, as shown on the figure 3 , and the passenger with reduced mobility can go up or down unhindered in height to cross. For a low platform 24b, for example having a height substantially equal to 550 mm, the step 26 can be lowered so as to have a height substantially equal to that of the dock or can be moved only in the transverse direction in the cases. Indeed, as represented on the Figure 4 if no mobility-impaired passenger traveling on a wheelchair or other wheeled items, such as pushchairs, trolleys, are to be moved up or down the train, the step 26 is moved only in the transverse direction so as to come substantially to the right of the edge of the wharf and form a step between the platform 24b and the step 26. The mobile platform 22 is not moved and remains at the same height as the standard platform 16. The travelers come down or simply mount the step formed between the step 26 and the movable platform 22 and the step formed between the step 26 and the platform 24b. The height of such steps is for example less than or equal to 200 mm in order to meet the standards specifying the ergonomics of access to the car. If a passenger with reduced mobility has to get on or off the train, the step 26 and the mobile platform 22 are lowered so as to be at the same height as the platform 24b, as shown in FIG. figure 5 , and the passenger with reduced mobility can go up or down unhindered in height to cross.

Une hauteur de plate-forme courante de 950 mm permet de desservir les 2 hauteurs types de quais à savoir 550 mm et 760 mm avec des hauteurs de marche de l'ordre de 200 mm, en accord avec les normes spécifiant l'ergonomie d'accès.A standard platform height of 950 mm can serve the 2 typical platform heights, namely 550 mm and 760 mm with operating heights of the order of 200 mm, in accordance with the standards specifying the ergonomics of access.

On comprendra que seul un marchepied 26 peut être déplacé si le véhicule est arrêté à un quai disposé sur un côté du véhicule ou que les deux marchepieds peuvent être déplacés si deux quais sont présents respectivement de chaque côté du véhicule ferroviaire, le déplacement de chaque marchepied étant indépendant l'un de l'autre.It will be understood that only a step 26 can be moved if the vehicle is stopped at a platform located on one side of the vehicle or that the two steps can be moved if two platforms are present respectively on each side of the railway vehicle, the displacement of each step being independent of one another.

Les déplacements en hauteur des marchepieds 26 et de la plate-forme mobile 22 sont par exemple réalisés au moyen de coussins pneumatiques 30 s'étendant respectivement sous chaque marchepied 26 et sous la plate-forme mobile 22. Les coussins 30 reposent sur le châssis de la caisse 14. Ils se déploient lors du mouvement vers le haut de la plate-forme mobile 22 et/ou du marchepied 26 et se rétractent lors du mouvement vers le bas de la plate-forme mobile 22 et/ou du marchepied 26.The height displacements of the steps 26 and the mobile platform 22 are for example made by means of pneumatic cushions 30 respectively extending under each step 26 and under the mobile platform 22. The cushions 30 rest on the frame of the body 14. They deploy during the upward movement of the mobile platform 22 and / or the step 26 and retract during the downward movement of the mobile platform 22 and / or the step 26.

Les mouvements des marchepieds 26 et de la plate-forme mobile 22 sont par exemple commandés de façon automatique par les automatismes de bord du véhicule, en fonction de la hauteur de quai desservi et de façon nominale c'est à dire sans solliciter les dispositions propres aux accès pour les passagers à mobilité réduite. Cependant, dans le cas où un voyageur à mobilité réduite doit monter ou descendre du véhicule ferroviaire, un dispositif de commande à distance du type télécommande lui est fourni en gare avant son embarquement dans le train. Ce dispositif de commande à distance permet de commander aux automatismes de bord du véhicule la mise en mouvement sécurisée des marchepieds 26 et de la plate-forme mobile 22. Ainsi, le voyageur à mobilité réduite peut actionner seul le déplacement de la plate-forme mobile 22 et des marchepieds 26 et monter ou descendre du train sans l'intervention du personnel du train ou de la gare.The movements of the steps 26 and the mobile platform 22 are for example automatically controlled by the vehicle's onboard automatisms, depending on the height of the platform served and in a nominal manner, ie without soliciting the proper provisions. access for passengers with reduced mobility. However, in the case where a passenger with reduced mobility has to get on or off the railway vehicle, a remote control device of the remote control type is provided at the station before boarding the train. This remote control device makes it possible to control the on-board automatic systems to move the steps 26 and the mobile platform 22 in a secure movement. Thus, the passenger with reduced mobility can actuate the movement of the mobile platform alone. 22 and steps 26 and get on or off the train without the intervention of the staff of the train or the station.

L'invention décrite ci-dessus permet ainsi de faciliter l'accès au véhicule ferroviaire aux voyageurs à mobilité réduite sans nécessiter l'intervention du personnel du train ou de la gare. De plus, le mouvement de la plate-forme mobile 22 étant indépendant de ceux des marchepieds 26, il n'est pas nécessaire d'actionner le déplacement de l'ensemble pour le cas où aucun voyageur à mobilité réduite n'aurait à accéder au véhicule ferroviaire, ce qui permet de minimiser les déplacements de la plate-forme mobile 22. De même les mouvements des marchepieds peuvent être minimisés si leur déplacement en hauteur n'est pas requis. Lorsque le déplacement de la plate-forme mobile 22 n'est pas nécessaire, on évite la création d'une marche entre la plate-forme mobile et la plate-forme standard, ce qui facilite les déplacements de voyageurs à l'intérieur du véhicule ferroviaire.The invention described above thus makes it possible to facilitate access to the rail vehicle for passengers with reduced mobility without requiring the intervention of the staff of the train or the station. In addition, the movement of the mobile platform 22 being independent of those of the running boards 26, it is not necessary to actuate the movement of the assembly for the case where no traveler with reduced mobility would have access to the rail vehicle, which minimizes the movement of the mobile platform 22. Similarly the movements of the steps can be minimized if their movement height is not required. When the movement of the mobile platform 22 is not necessary, it avoids the creation of a step between the mobile platform and the standard platform, which facilitates the movement of passengers inside the vehicle rail.

La description a été faite en référence aux voyageurs se déplaçant au moyen d'un fauteuil roulant. On comprendra cependant que l'invention est également particulièrement avantageuse pour d'autres éléments sur roues, tels que des poussettes, des trolleys, etc.The description has been made with reference to travelers traveling by means of a wheelchair. It will be understood, however, that the invention is also particularly advantageous for other elements on wheels, such as strollers, trolleys, etc.
