BAHN RISES URSYSTEM, METHOD FOR OPERATING

A PASSENGER DOOR SYSTEM AND DOOR FRAME FOR A PASSENGER DOOR SYSTEM

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates to a platform door system having sliding doors arranged along the platform for releasing and closing passages to a train stopping at the platform. The invention also relates to a method for operating a platform door system and a door frame for

Platform screen doors.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Platform door systems, by means of which track areas of platform areas can be separated, are gaining in importance for various reasons. On the one hand, the safety can be considerably increased because the track area for travelers is no longer accessible and they can not fall before entering trains. On the other hand, an energetically favorable air conditioning of the platform area becomes possible.

Simple platform door systems are tuned to specific train models and point at unchangeable points along the platform at which

Entrance of a train train doors are expected, platform doors on.

In particular, when trains are manually controlled, it is not always possible to maintain an exact stopping position, so that after stopping the train the places where the platform doors are located, not exactly correspond to those places where train doors are located. If different trains are used, where the doors are located in different places, there is often a lack of agreement between platform screen doors and train doors. Various approaches have been taken to solve these problems, both in platform door systems, sometimes referred to as "fill height" systems, that can completely shield the platform from the track, and in platform railing systems, sometimes referred to as "half Height "or" Lower Height "systems are called and in which along the platform only about waist-high railing runs.

JP 2005 335451 A proposes a railing system with gate housings which can be moved along the platform, from which slide gates can pass or into which slide passages can pass between the moveable gates

To form or close gate housings. EP 2 500 225 A1 proposes a further development of this system in which telescoping gate elements extend out of the gate housings, so that the distances between each two adjacent movable gate housings which can be closed by means of the sliding gate can be increased and wider passages can be formed between the gate housings. In both systems, an adaptation of the locations where passages can be formed into a train, by moving the gate housing. Both systems deliberately only want to make a railing to the track, e.g. to allow the driver to look along the track. However, such systems can not prevent people falling over the railing on the track or climbing over the railing. In addition, such systems do not allow the often desired for ventilation and climatic technical reasons, foreclosure of the platform to the track. Particularly problematic in these systems, however, is that to adapt the gate-forming passages to a new Zugtürkonfiguration all parts of the railing

including the gate housings must be moved along the platform. However, experience has shown that, especially in overcrowded platforms, persons often lean against supposedly stationary structures, so that accidents such as those caused by accidents occur. Falling or pinching extremities, e.g. the feet, can come. The risk of entrapment is increased when telescopic gate elements are used.

From DE 692 05 097 T2 a "filling height" system is known, in which along the platform many sliding door leaves are arranged side by side so that they form a continuous closed surface in the closed state, so to speak, similar to the doorbell doors and the outer skin of a train. A special opening mechanism then pulls depending on where in a

When the pull doors are in the retracted position, the sliding door leaves move out of the closed area into a separate opening plane in which the selected sliding door leaves can move. While this system allows any of several side-by-side sliding door panels to be opened to form a passageway, the locations where the sliding door panels are located are predetermined so that passageways can only be formed at predetermined discrete locations. An exact adaptation of the

train path side formed passage to the position of the train doors is therefore not possible in this system.

WO 2008/149246 also proposes a "Füll Height" platform door system with fixed posts and slidable sliding door wings arranged along the platform, the sliding door wings being so large as to cover slightly more than half of the area between the posts when closed in which they run in parallel, slightly offset planes and slightly overlap each other in the closed state. This system then makes it possible to form passages between the posts at different points, so that the sliding door leaves are each opened differently wide. However, the system involves various problems which have proven to be extremely disadvantageous in practice. To prevent

Passengers between platform door and train door can get, should the

Platform screen doors and the train doors are closed at the same time. Since train doors straight with mass means of transport such as subways in large cities, with which the

Use of platform door systems is particularly useful, usually open and close very quickly, the very large platform-side sliding door leaves must also be moved quickly and braked. Because such doors

Usually contain large glass surfaces, a considerable weight must be accelerated and precisely decelerated again, which is not trivial.

Due to the size of the door leaves required in this system, the door leaves move when opening the post over in the area in which adjacent door leaves then move in opposite directions. This can result in fingers being caught by careless passengers leaning against or clinging to an opening sliding door. Also, it has turned out to be proved problematic to detect a safe closed position between the two forming a passage, running in parallel but slightly staggered planes sliding door wings.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The object of the invention is to provide a platform door system, in particular a "Füll Height" platform door system, in which it is possible by means of

Sliding doors formed passages exactly to different Zugtürpositionen adapt while avoiding the above-mentioned problems of the prior art.

The object is achieved by a platform door system with the features of claim 1. The independent claims relate to a displaceable

Door frame for platform door systems and a method for controlling a

Platform door system. Advantageous embodiments and further developments are the subject of the dependent claims. The invention is based on the idea of individual sliding doors in the closed

Condition along a platform independent of each other to move so that the releasable by means of the sliding doors passages are located at the places where the access to a holding train are. Passages are therefore not formed by a more or less wide opening of very wide sliding doors between fixed posts, but there are first whole sliding doors in the closed state to the places where passages are needed, and only then the sliding doors are opened. To realize the above idea, the invention relocates

Sliding doors and cover members which cover the spaces between adjacent sliding doors so that adjacent sliding doors can move toward or away from each other without thereby releasing a gap to the track. As a result, the individual sliding door wings can be made smaller and lighter. In a sliding door according to the invention, a passage between two sliding door wings, which run against each other when closing, or be formed by a sliding door and a so-called. Sliding wall element, wherein the two sliding door or the sliding door and the sliding wall element in the closed state together to a new position can be moved. The sliding wall element is therefore referred to as a displaceable wall element, because it together with the

Sliding door can be moved when the sliding door is to be realigned to a train, but it is stopped when opening and closing the sliding door leaf. In addition, a sliding door according to the invention can be moved further

Include wall elements so as to be able to cover a larger width between two wall elements with a door, but only have to move the door or the relatively light sliding door leaves when opening the door, as will be explained in more detail below.

Preferably, the two are in such a sliding door

Sliding door or the sliding door leaf and the sliding wall element is located in a common plane, which makes it easier to detect a safe closed position.

The cover elements can be formed as permanent or temporary (namely at least when opening the sliding doors) fixed wall elements and advantageously fulfill several functions. You can cover the areas between adjacent sliding doors and can be easily put off the sliding doors, so that it is located on the platform

People can easily see which parts of the platform door system may move when opening and closing the sliding doors and which are fixed, which increases security. Cover elements in the form of fixed wall elements allow in particular the mounting of roof or

Ceiling connection elements that cover the area between the cover to a roof or a ceiling of the platform also above the sliding doors, so that when the sliding doors closed the platform energetically favorable to the track and possibly the environment can be sealed off.

Preferably, the cover elements are seen from the platform in front of the

Movement level of the sliding doors arranged, which precludes danger that when Repositioning two adjacent sliding doors located on the platform people between two moving sliding doors can be advised. In a preferred embodiment, at least certain sliding door panels are each assigned at least one displaceable wall element which, together with the respective sliding door panel, is displaceable in the closed state into a door position along the platform. This allows it between the

Cover elements on the one hand foreclose a relatively large area, but on the other hand, the actually to open a passage to be opened

Sliding door wings to keep relatively compact, so that the sliding door leaves when opening and closing can be easily moved quickly and slowed down. The repositioning of the sliding doors then formed from sliding doors and sliding wall elements can be done slowly, as a rule, before the entrance of the train a corresponding door control can be announced, at which point the train doors are. In the presently preferred embodiment, a sliding door of two

Sliding door wings, which move in opposite directions in a common plane for opening and closing, and two sliding wall elements, which are located to the left and right of the two sliding door wings, formed.

The sliding wall elements and the sliding door leaves can each have their own storage to be moved in the closed state of the sliding doors in a new position. Preferably, however, is one

slidable door frame provided, in each case at least one

Sliding door and a wall panel are arranged and within which the sliding door is movable to open and close a passage.

A passage may be formed by two counter-rotating sliding door panels or a single sliding door panel extending from a sliding door

Wall element (which is not moved when opening the sliding door) are formed. In the latter case, the sliding door leaf and the displaceable wall element are preferably in one plane, so that the sliding door leaf and displaceable wall element are aligned in the closed position, which makes it easier to detect a safe closed position. Will the passage formed by two sliding door wings, these are advantageously also arranged so that they are aligned with each other in the closed state. The

Arrangement of the sliding wall elements, which do not serve for the optional formation of a passage, is advantageously made such that the

Sliding door wing when opening on the track facing side of the sliding

Moving wall elements, so that the risk of entrapment is further reduced, as the opening degree of the doors on the

Platform located persons facing moving surface of the sliding doors continuously reduced. The sliding doors thus run between the sliding (but resting when opening the doors) wall elements and the outside of a holding train.

Further details and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the

following purely exemplary and non-limiting description embodiment in conjunction with the drawing.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING Fig. 1 shows schematically a displaceable according to the invention

Sliding door for platform door systems with two sliding door panels arranged in a door frame and associated wall elements, wherein the sliding door panels are in the closed position.

Fig. 2 shows the schematic sliding door shown in Fig. 1, wherein the two sliding door leaves are, however, in the open position.

3 is a schematic representation of the operation of the

Invention. DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

In Figs. 1 and 2, a sliding sliding door designated in its entirety by 10 is shown, which is formed in this embodiment by means of a door frame 1 1, the two wall elements 12, 14 and two

Sliding door wings 16, 18 carries.

As indicated by the movement arrow 20, the sliding door 10 can be moved in its entirety along a platform, not shown here, in the embodiment shown by moving the door frame

1 1 to bring the sliding door leaves 16, 18 in the closed state in different door positions along the platform, from which they can then be opened and closed, this repositioning of the sliding door 10 within the respective range of motion independently of other along the same platform arranged sliding doors can be done.

Since, when moving the door frame 1 1 and the wall elements 12, 14 are moved, they are as within the meaning of the invention displaceable

Wall elements, in this embodiment, each

Sliding door wings 16, 18 is associated with exactly one sliding wall element 12, 14. It should be emphasized at this point that each sliding door leaf can also be associated with two displaceable wall elements, one of which is preferably arranged in the plane in which the sliding door leaf moves during opening and closing of the passage, while the other is arranged so that it covers a door when opening to the platform at least partially. To release a passage then only one

Sliding door wing moves, which preferably when closing against the

Wall element runs, which is in its plane of motion, allowing easy and safe detection of a defined closed position. Preferably, a passage as in the embodiment shown by two each in opposite directions opening and closing sliding door wings 16 and 18 is formed, advantageously both sliding door wings when opening and closing move in the same plane, so when closing run against each other, which also the desired simple and secure detection of a defined closed position allows. In the door frame 1 1, the sliding door wings 16, 18 as shown by the

Movement arrows 22 and 24 indicated for opening and closing a

Passage 26 are moved, including corresponding automated

Drive means are provided. In this case, the opening and closing of the sliding door leaves 16, 18, ie the release and closing of the passage 26, preferably synchronously with the opening and closing of the train doors of a retracted train and only if any movement of the door frame 1 1 for the purpose of positioning the sliding door is relative to the train doors

is completed. For the synchronous execution of the opening and closing of platform screen doors and train doors, the principles known from WO 201 1/069503 A1 have proven particularly useful. However, it is also possible to use other techniques, e.g. Camera surveillance with preferably automatic

Use image evaluation and / or sensors in the area of the sliding doors to ensure that the sliding door leaves open only when there are corresponding pull doors behind them and to ensure that a synchronous opening and closing takes place. In older trains also manual operation of the platform door system can be provided by train and / or platform staff.

Advantageously, an emergency release be provided, which makes it possible to open the sliding door leaves 16 and 18 and / or the sliding wall elements 12 and 14 manually, with such emergency release can be designed so that the sliding door leaf platform side only by authorized personnel, but on the track side can be opened by anyone in order to prevent misuse and accidents on the one hand, and on the other hand to enable people on the track to leave at any time. In Fig. 1, a conventional Notentriegelungsbügel 38 is indicated in the sliding wall element 14. Similar emergency release mechanisms may also be described on at least some of those described below in connection with FIG

Covering elements and / or at least certain of the displaceable

Wall elements may be provided. In the example shown, the displaceable wall element 14 is formed as an emergency door and can be unlocking pivot door open. The door frame 1 1 is in this embodiment on rollers 28, of which for reasons of clarity, only a few have been provided with reference numerals, so that it can be moved along the platform. In the door frame 1 1, the sliding door leaves 16, 18 are suspended, wherein they on the bottom side, for example, formed as a cam guide elements in a guide along the

Door frame and thus also along the platform can slide, are guided. Advantageously, the guide is open at the bottom, so that any dirt can fall through and does not affect the running of the door. In Fig. 3 is a diagram for illustrating the operation of the invention is shown. Along a platform 30 are at positions where

Usually no train doors will come to a halt even with different trains, cover elements 32 are arranged in the form of fixed wall elements which are of different widths in this embodiment and of which only a few have been provided with reference numerals for reasons of clarity. The cover 32 are here each formed as emergency doors, so that they can be swung from the track to the platform if necessary. It should be emphasized at this point that the cover must not be permanently secure. Usually, the cover elements are not moved in the repositioning of the sliding doors for the purpose of adjusting the passages to the doors of a retracting or retracted train and are advantageously used to hold other elements such as roof and

Ceiling connection elements, which then make it possible to completely seal off the platform to the track. However, the cover elements may also be mobile such that they are e.g. When changing the train models can be easily offset by a

To allow for upgradeability of the system. Is a particularly high flexibility of the platform door system in terms of adaptability to different

Required Zugtürposition, the cover can also be formed automatically movable.

Furthermore, in this exemplary embodiment, a total of eight sliding sliding doors 10, which are also only partially designated by reference numerals, are provided, which are moved along the platform 30, whereby they are each covered partially and in different dimensions in the region of the displaceable wall elements by the cover elements 32. Each sliding door is in this embodiment by means of an above

described sliding door frame formed. To purely exemplary two different arrangement configurations, in the drawing as Conf. A and Conf. B designates the eight sliding doors 10 to make clear relative to the cover elements 32, the sliding doors are not at the height of the platform 30 on which they are actually located, but quasi hovering above. The drawing thus shows in the lowest plane of the drawing the cover elements 32, here in the form of fixed wall elements, which are seen from the platform in the frontmost plane, and in the two drawing planes shown above two different positions of the eight sliding doors, seen from the platform actually be in a plane immediately behind the fixed elements. Finally, two trains A and B are shown in the top two levels of drawing, although each eight in this example of two sliding door wings formed pull doors 34 and 36 (also only partially provided with reference numerals), but with the distances of the individual doors to each other distinguish between the two trains.

By individually moving the door frames, the sliding door leaves can then be moved, inter alia, into the two configurations Conf. A and Conf. B are brought, so that the resulting upon opening the respective door passages arise at the points at which, after stopping a train A or a train B traction doors 34 and 36 are.

For controlling such a platform door system is preferably so

Proceeded that automatically before or at the entrance to a train via a suitable signaling technology information about the positions at which the train has opening doors, are transmitted to the platform door system, which then moves the sliding door leaves in the closed state such that the opening the sliding door leaves allowed passageways correspond with the expected Zugtürpositionen. Depending on the skills of the

Signaling technology, which is used in accordance with the wishes of the respective customer, can provide information to the customer prior to the arrival of a train

Be transmitted to the platform door system, which go beyond information that allows a corresponding positioning of the sliding door leaves, eg information about defective doors, so that waiting passengers can be signaled in advance that certain doors will not open.

Preferably, after entering a train before opening the sliding door leaf is automatically checked whether the actual door positions of the doors of the train arrived match the expected door positions, which can be done in particular by sensors in the sliding door leaf and / or by camera monitoring of the area of the sliding door sash. In older trains, if there is no appropriate signaling technique, manual control may be provided, e.g. allowing the driver of a retracted train or the platform staff to manually or semi-automatically control the platform door system.

Within the scope of the inventive concept, numerous modifications and

Developments possible, e.g. relate to the type of repositioning of the sliding door leaf and associated sliding wall elements. So it is e.g. possible, instead of the sliding door frame shown each slidable wall element associated with a sliding door with its own storage for simultaneous displacement equipped with the associated sliding door leaf. It is also possible to move

Sliding doors and / or the cover to form only waist high. The

Invention also advantageously allows the retrofitting or conversion of existing platform door systems, in particular, the sliding door frame have proven to time and cost conversion.
