Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a railway vehicle, in particular for transporting passengers. More particularly, the invention relates to a railway vehicle of the tramway type.
  • a rail vehicle of the tramway type is intended to travel in an urban environment, which imposes certain constraints, in particular of gauge. Indeed, the space available for the circulation of the vehicle is sometimes reduced. It is therefore necessary to optimally reduce the size of the vehicle, in particular in the curves of the tracks on which this vehicle is traveling, and more particularly in the curves with a small radius.
  • the object of the invention is in particular to provide a rail vehicle the size of which is reduced in curves, without reducing the capacity of this vehicle.
  • the invention relates in particular to a railway vehicle, in particular of the tramway type, comprising at least three cars, each car comprising a structural body extending longitudinally between two ends, characterized in that the structural bodies of the different cars are identical, in that each car is linked in an articulated manner to at least one adjacent car by an inter-circulation device, and in that each car has, at each end of its structural body, a single-axle bogie which is attached to it. own.
  • each car of the vehicle according to the invention rests on two single-axle bogies which are specific to it, unlike the vehicles known in the state of the art, in which certain bogies support two adjacent cars.
  • the vehicle according to the invention does not exhibit any mass transfer between two adjacent cars, and the axle masses are distributed in a balanced manner over the various bogies fitted to the rail vehicle.
  • the rail vehicle 10 is for example intended for the transport of passengers, in particular in an urban environment.
  • the rail vehicle 10 has at least two cars. More particularly, in the example shown, the rail vehicle 10 comprises two end cars 12 and an intermediate car 13 interposed longitudinally between said end cars 12.
  • the rail vehicle 10 could have only two cars, that is to say only the end cars 12.
  • the rail vehicle 10 could include at least two intermediate cars 13, aligned longitudinally between the end cars 12.
  • each car 12, 13 comprises a structural body 14 extending longitudinally between two ends 14A, 14B.
  • the structural bodies 14 of the different cars 12, 13 are identical.
  • the structural body 14 of each end car 12 is identical to the structural body 14 of each intermediate car 13.
  • the structural boxes 14 are standardized, which makes it possible to facilitate the manufacture of the rail vehicle 10, in particular by limiting the tools required for this manufacture.
  • this standardization makes it possible to reduce the number of part references in the spare and repair fleet, and also makes it possible to standardize the maintenance infrastructures. Finally, this standardization makes it possible to reduce the production cost of the vehicle 10.
  • each car 12, 13 advantageously comprises identical equipment (not shown), in particular passenger seats, arranged identically in each car.
  • Each structural box 14 comprises at least one lateral access opening, intended to receive a conventional sliding door 16.
  • each structural box 14 comprises at least two lateral access openings, arranged on either side of the structural box. 14, one facing the other.
  • each structural box has four access openings, two of which are shown on the figure 1 , closed by doors 16, and two others are located on the other side of the structural body 14, each one facing one of those shown.
  • each structural body 14 also comprises lateral openings intended to be closed off by respective panes, for example panes which may or may not be partially movable.
  • each structural body 14 is open at each of its ends 14A, 14B, in order to allow the movement of passengers in the rail vehicle 10.
  • each car 12, 13 is hingedly connected to at least one adjacent car 12, 13 by an intercirculation device 18 of conventional type.
  • Each car 12, 13 comprises, at each end 14A, 14B of its structural body 14, a single-axle bogie 20 which is specific to it.
  • the rail vehicle 10 according to the invention does not include a bogie common to two adjacent cars, so that each bogie 20 must only support the weight of the car equipped with this bogie 20.
  • the position of the bogies 20 at the ends 14A, 14B of the structural body 14 makes it possible to free up a large space between the bogies 20 of this structural body 14, and therefore facilitates the flexibility of the arrangement of the passenger room space.
  • each bogie 20 is of the “single-axle” type, that is to say it has only one axle, conventionally carrying two wheels 22.
  • All the wheels 22 of the rail vehicle 10 have an identical diameter.
  • the wheels 22 are of the “large wheels” type, that is to say their diameter is greater than 590 mm.
  • Each single-axle bogie 20 comprises at least one movable part in rotation about a vertical axis relative to the car 12, 13 equipped with this single-axle bogie 20, this movable part carrying the axle. It is easily understood that a single-axle bogie 20 thus articulated causes few constraints for the movement of the vehicle 10 in curves, and that even in curves with small radius, unlike conventional two-axle bogies. The single-axle bogie thus makes it possible to reduce the size.
  • the good maneuverability of the vehicle 10 according to the invention coupled with the good distribution of the masses on the axles, allows the production of a large vehicle, in particular of a length greater than 40 meters.
  • the single-axle bogies 20 of the different cars 12, 13 are identical, for reasons of standardization.
  • such standardization of single-axle bogies 20 facilitates the manufacture and maintenance of the rail vehicle 10, and makes it possible to reduce manufacturing and maintenance costs.
  • At least one single-axle bogie 20 is motorized.
  • the motorization is evenly distributed along the rail vehicle 10.
  • the traction and braking performance of the vehicle 10 are optimal.
  • At least one of the end cars 12 comprises a driver's cabin 24, secured to the structural body 14 of this end carriage 12.
  • the driver's cabin 24 is an independent element, attached and secured. to the structural body 14 of this end car 12.
  • each of the two end cars 12 has such a driver's cabin 24.
  • Each driver's cabin 24 is of the conventional type, and includes equipment necessary for driving the rail vehicle.
  • Each driver's cab 24 has no bogie.
  • the single-axle bogie 20 of the end car 12 does not extend below this driver's cabin 24.
  • each car 12, 13 has a low floor, that is to say a floor spaced from the ground by a distance of less than 525 mm.
  • each car 12, 13 comprises two first zones, each located above a respective single-axle bogie 20, and a second zone extending longitudinally between the bogies 20 of this car.
  • each first floor zone is at the same height as the second floor zone.
  • the second floor area is raised to be arranged at the same height as the first floor areas.
  • each first floor area is at a height greater than the height of the second floor area.
  • the transition between the first and second floor zones is effected by longitudinal or transverse ramps.
  • the floor has no steps.
