Description

Beschreibungdescription
Fahrwerkstraverse für ein SchienenfahrzeugSuspension crossbar for a rail vehicle
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Fahrwerkstraverse für ein Schienenfahrzeug.The invention relates to a chassis cross member for a rail vehicle.
Bekannte Fahrwerkstraversen für Schienenfahrzeuge, die aus dem Material "Aluminium" hergestellt sind, sind Gussteile. Bekanntermaßen ist die Herstellung von Gussteilen vergleichsweise kostspielig und aufwendig.Known suspension braces for rail vehicles, which are made of the material "aluminum" are castings. As is known, the production of castings is comparatively expensive and expensive.
Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Fahrwerkstraverse anzugeben, die unter Beibehaltung desThe invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide a suspension truss, while maintaining the
Materials "Aluminium" eine günstigere Fertigung ermöglicht.Material "aluminum" allows for cheaper production.
Diese Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, dass die Fahrwerkstraverse ausschließlich aus Aluminium-Strangpressprofilen aufgebaut ist.This object is achieved in that the chassis cross member is constructed exclusively of extruded aluminum profiles.
Die Herstellung von Strangpressprofilen ist allgemein kostengünstiger als diejenige von Gussteilen. Aus diesem Grund ergeben sich Vorteile durch den Einsatz von Strangpressprofilen.The production of extruded profiles is generally less expensive than that of castings. For this reason, there are advantages through the use of extruded profiles.
Die Fahrwerkstraverse kann Befestigungspunkte zur Befestigung der Fahrwerkstraverse an Langträgern eines Wagenkastens aufweisen, wobei sie bevorzugt keine weiteren Befestigungspunkte zum Wagenkasten besitzt.The chassis cross member may have attachment points for attachment of the chassis cross member to the longitudinal members of a car body, wherein it preferably has no further attachment points to the car body.
Es können auch weitere Befestigungspunkte für Fahrwerkselemente vorhanden sein, die aus der Gruppe ausgewählt sind, die eine Wankstütze, Dämpfer und Anschläge umfasst. Dies ermöglicht es, typische Fahrwerkselemente an der Fahrwerkstraverse anzubringen. Die Fahrwerkstraverse kann eine allgemein H-förmige Struktur aufweisen. Dabei ist bevorzugt, dass die H-förmige Struktur von zwei parallel nebeneinander angeordneten Querprofilen und zwei Längsprofilen gebildet ist, wobei die Querprofile jeweils mit ihren Stirnseiten mit beiden Längsprofilen verbunden sind. Die beiden parallel zueinander angeordneten Strangpressprofile sind zweckmäßiger Weise ebenfalls miteinander verbunden. Die Etablierung der erforderlichen Verbindungen erfolgt bevorzugt durch Schweißen.There may also be other attachment points for suspension elements selected from the group consisting of a roll support, dampers and stops. This makes it possible to attach typical suspension elements to the chassis crossmember. The chassis crossbar may have a generally H-shaped structure. It is preferred that the H-shaped structure of two parallel juxtaposed transverse profiles and two longitudinal profiles is formed, wherein the transverse profiles are each connected with their end faces with two longitudinal profiles. The two parallel extruded profiles are also connected to each other expediently. The establishment of the required connections is preferably carried out by welding.
Dabei können vorgesehene Schweißnähte zwischen den Strangpressprofilen warm ausgelagert sein.It can be outsourced hot welds provided between the extruded profiles.
Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird nachfolgend unter Bezugnahme auf die Zeichnung noch näher erläutert. Die einzige Figur zeigt eine perspektivische Ansicht einer Fahrwerkstraverse für ein Schienenfahrzeug.An embodiment of the invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the drawings. The single FIGURE shows a perspective view of a chassis beam for a rail vehicle.
Die in der Figur dargestellt Fahrwerkstraverse ist aus vier Strangpressprofilen aufgebaut, und zwar in der Weise, dass sich eine allgemein H-förmige Struktur ergibt. Unter Bezugnahme auf die H-Struktur sind zwei parallel nebeneinander verlaufende Querprofile Ql, Q2 vorgesehen, die mittels einer zwischen ihnen verlaufenden Schweißnaht 3 miteinander verbunden sind. Enden der Querprofile Ql, Q2 stoßen gegen ein rechtes und ein linkes Längsprofil Ll, L2. Stirnseiten der Querprofile Ql, Q2 sind mit Hilfe von Schweißnähten 3 an den Längsprofilen Ll, L2 befestigt. Sämtliche Scheißnähte 3 sind warm ausgelagert, was zur Erhöhung der Festigkeit der Nähte führt.The chassis truss shown in the figure is constructed of four extruded profiles, in such a way that a generally H-shaped structure results. With reference to the H-structure, there are provided two parallel side by side transverse profiles Q1, Q2 which are interconnected by means of a weld seam 3 extending between them. Ends of the transverse profiles Q1, Q2 abut against right and left longitudinal profiles L1, L2. End sides of the transverse profiles Ql, Q2 are attached by means of welds 3 to the longitudinal profiles Ll, L2. All shit seams 3 are outsourced warm, which leads to an increase in the strength of the seams.
Beide Längsprofile Ll, L2 sind mit Befestigungspunkten 1, 2 versehen, die folgende Aufgaben haben. Die Befestigungspunkte 1 haben gemeinsam, dass sie eine Verbindung zu einem Langträger eines mit der Fahrwerkstraverse zusammenwirkenden Wagenkastens ermöglichen. Die Befestigungspunkte 1 sind an jeweiligen Enden der Längsprofile Ll, L2 und etwa in deren Mitte vorgesehen. Die Befestigungspunkte 1 bilden die einzige Befestigungsverbindung zwischen der Fahrwerkstraverse und dem Wagenkasten .Both longitudinal profiles Ll, L2 are provided with attachment points 1, 2, which have the following tasks. The attachment points 1 have in common that they allow a connection to a long beam of cooperating with the chassis cross member car body. The attachment points 1 are provided at respective ends of the longitudinal profiles L1, L2 and approximately in the middle thereof. The attachment points 1 form the only one Fixing connection between the chassis crossbeam and the body.
Die Befestigungspunkte 2 dienen zum Anbringen von Fahrwerkselementen, wie einer Wankstütze, eines oder mehrer Dämpfer von Anschlägen (sämtlich nicht dargestellt) . Die Befestigungspunkte 2 sind an den Längsprofilen Ll, L2 so anzuordnen, wie es eine allgemeine Auslegung des zugehörigen Fahrwerks erfordert. Im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel liegen die Befestigungspunkte 2 jeweils in einem geringen Abstand einwärts von den äußeren Befestigungspunkten 1.The attachment points 2 are used for attaching suspension elements, such as a roll support, one or more dampers of attacks (all not shown). The attachment points 2 are to be arranged on the longitudinal profiles Ll, L2, as it requires a general interpretation of the associated chassis. In the illustrated embodiment, the attachment points 2 are in each case at a small distance inwardly from the outer attachment points. 1
Es ist hervorzuheben, dass in anderen Ausführungsformen der Erfindung auch mehr als zwei Querprofile oder auch nur ein einziges vorgesehen sein können. Auch sind Modifikationen hinsichtlich der Ausführung der Längsprofile denkbar. It should be emphasized that in other embodiments of the invention, more than two transverse profiles or even a single can be provided. Also, modifications in the execution of the longitudinal profiles are conceivable.
