Definitions
- the invention relates to a locomotive with at least one driver's cab, a machine room, at least one refrigeration unit and distribution means, which are adapted to guide a coolant flow cooled by the refrigeration unit, wherein the distribution means are coupled to the refrigeration unit, wherein the distribution means in each driver's cab as extend into the engine room, so that via the distribution means cooling of the engine room and at least one cab is possible.
- Such a locomotive is in the DE 28 31 343 C2 disclosed.
- the pit locomotive described there has a driver's cab and a hermetically sealed engine room.
- a cooling unit is provided which comprises an evaporator arranged in the machine room and a compressor arranged outside the machine room and a condenser, wherein the machine room air is circulated by means of a fan in the machine room. The recirculated air is passed through the evaporator with a cooling of the air in the wake.
- the aforementioned cooling device is used exclusively for cooling the engine room.
- an additional cooling unit is required to cool the cab. Cooling the engine room with a refrigeration unit is an exception.
- the DE 33 14 039 A1 relates to a ventilation system for an electric locomotive.
- the ventilation system disclosed therein has an air treatment plant arranged in the engine room for separating the dust.
- the air conditioning system has a fan that sucks air from the outside atmosphere through a protective grid. The sucked air stream is then filtered and blown into a central aisle of the engine room, in which a negative pressure is created in this way.
- Dust-sensitive auxiliary equipment and devices such as control devices, switching devices, auxiliary equipment, converters and the like, are arranged in sealed sections of the machine compartment. Appropriate air inlets allow the pre-cleaned air to reach the components to be cooled. The pre-treated air also enters the cabs where the locomotive's air conditioning systems are located.
- the CH 284 249 also describes a ventilation and filtration system of a diesel-electric locomotive.
- the air sucked in from the outside atmosphere is split into two different partial flows in order to avoid soiling of sensitive components.
- the post-published EP 2 078 654 A2 discloses a locomotive with two driver's cabs and an engine room located between the driver's cabs.
- an air treatment unit is arranged, wherein the air treatment units are in operative connection with one another via connection means.
- the one Air treatment unit support the other air handling unit when cooling or heating, so that the individual air treatment units can be designed for lower maximum power.

- the connecting means thus serve to couple the air treatment unit.
- the DE 27 50 314 A1 relates to a locomotive having a machine room and two driver's cabs.
- a cooling unit and a compressor In the engine room there is a cooling unit and a compressor. Cooling liquid cooled by said cooling unit is first fed to a coolant condenser.
- the coolant condenser is used for cooling an air flow and is arranged in the direction of the air flow in front of an engine radiator.
- the coolant condenser thus cools the air flow before it reaches the radiator of a diesel engine.
- the exiting from the coolant condenser coolant is supplied via leads two liquid air heat exchangers, which are each arranged in one of the two driver's cabs.
- the liquid air heat exchangers interact with blowers, each of which generates an air flow that passes through the heat exchanger.
- the cooled in this way air flow finally provides the air conditioning of the cab, with an air duct is used to guide the air flow.
- the heat exchangers are connected via return
- the invention has for its object to provide a locomotive of the type mentioned above, which in addition to effective cooling of the engine room and the cooling of the cab allows and is particularly cost.

- the invention enables the cooling of several functional spaces of the locomotive with a single cooling device.
- the cooled by at least one cooling unit refrigerant flow is distributed by the distribution means to the individual rooms.
- individual rooms can be excluded from the supply of cold.
- the flow of refrigerant within the scope of the invention is guided by means of the distribution means exclusively to the machine room.
- the distribution of the refrigerant flow is flexibly adapted to the respective situation.
- a cooling device for the exclusive cooling of the engine room can be saved, since the already existing for cooling the cab air conditioners can be used to generate the refrigerant flow. This reduces the cost of such a locomotive according to the invention.
- the invention is also based on the finding that in locomotives which are equipped only with a ventilation system in the engine room, the cooling performance, especially at high outside temperatures, may not be sufficient and may lead to high temperatures in the engine room.
- these high temperatures increase the failure rate of the engine room arranged electrical and electronic components.
- the engine room and thus the components of the electronics or electrics arranged therein are cooled, for example contactors, relays or circuit boards, control and regulation units.
- An increase in the failure rate is avoided by the inventive intensive cooling.
- the operating costs are lowered according to the invention at low additional costs for the cooling of the engine room.
- the refrigerant carrier is gaseous.
- commercially available ventilation systems can be used for cooling and gas flow generation.
- the airflow generated by the commercial air conditioner for example, can be introduced by cost-effective distribution means such as control and deflection systems in the functional spaces to be cooled.
- the air flow can be brought by Leit- and deflection systems via the distribution means directly into the functional spaces, such as cab or engine room, and moreover to individual components to be cooled, such as switches, circuit boards or control units.
- Air is the preferred refrigerant carrier.
- the distribution means comprise a channel-shaped line system.
- the cooling unit may comprise a heat exchanger which is linked to the distribution means in such a way that the refrigerant flow guided in the distribution means comes into thermal contact with the heat exchanger.
- the refrigeration unit also comprises an evaporator, a compressor and a condenser.
- the evaporator extracts a heat flowing through the heat exchanger by evaporation heat, which is dissipated by compressing and condensing the steam in the region of the condenser to the outside environment of the locomotive.
- the locomotive according to the invention may have a plurality of such cooling units, which are coupled to the distribution means.
- the channel-shaped line system branches off in a suitable manner.
- the conduit system may comprise main conduits which extend to and into the individual functional spaces.
- branch lines depart from the main lines, which extend, for example, towards the components to be cooled. In this way it is possible to introduce the coolant flow to components to be cooled.
- the channel-shaped conduit system for discharging the refrigerant flow having openings which open into the engine room.
- the openings in the channel-shaped line system are arranged such that the respective emerging refrigerant flow is directed to a component to be cooled in the engine room. This allows a safe cooling of the components.
- the channel-shaped line system can be arranged inside the machine room, for example, on the ceiling. This is a particularly space-saving arrangement.
- outlet nozzles can be arranged in the openings, which imprint a suitable direction on the refrigerant flow emerging into the machine room.
- the channel-shaped line system branches within the machine room.
- the refrigerant flow can be distributed in a suitable manner in the engine room.
- the channel-shaped line system can, for example, branch such that the coolant stream exits the line system evenly distributed over the machine room.
- the line system comprises branches which extend from the line system to cooling components.
- the refrigerant flow guided along the branches can be conducted directly into and / or into the components to be cooled and / or into cooling lines extending inside the components.
- Cooling components of the engine room are, for example, coolers, control units such as drive controls, control and regulating units of the converter or controller, components of the train protection, drive components such as converters and actuators and other electrical and electronic components such as circuit boards, switches, contactors or the like.
- the components to be cooled are arranged for example in cabinets, which are made of sheet metal, for example. In such cabinets, for example, at least one branch opens, so that the flow of refrigerant into the cabinet is feasible. In the cabinet outlet openings for discharging the refrigerant flow from the cabinet are provided in the engine room.
- the distribution means comprise switching means arranged to divert the flow of refrigerant.
- the switching means can cause a bypassing of the refrigerant flow in the region of a cooling unit, so that the operative connection of the cooling unit and the operative connection between the cooling unit and the refrigerant flow are interrupted, for example, to replace a defective cooling unit.
- the switching means can also be provided that the cooled by a cooling unit refrigerant flow is distributed depending on the switching position of the switching means to different rooms to be cooled.
- the switching means are expediently controlled, so that the driver can transfer the switching means to a desired position, for example, by operating a lever, switch or push button on his cab.
- the switching means comprise check valves and / or flow flaps.
- the flow flaps may close or release openings in the channeled conduit system.
- a closure of such an opening can be provided, for example, when the refrigeration flow cooled by a refrigeration unit is not intended to enter the channel-shaped piping system for further distribution in the locomotive, but should enter directly into the space in which the refrigeration unit is arranged.
- a blocking valve switching means may be electrically controllable shut-off valves. This has the already mentioned above advantage that by means of suitable control signals from a central location several check valves can be operated simultaneously.
