Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connection arrangement for at least one flexible connection element, in particular a connection element for connecting two cars of a rail-bound means of transport, and a rail vehicle with such a connection arrangement.
  • connections for transporting work equipment e.g. B. a brake fluid, a coolant, compressed air or electrical connecting elements for conducting electrical energy.
  • Suitable connecting elements for this can be cables, lines or hoses. These are either routed below the connected wagons or below their wagon bodies, although a safety distance to the rail and to the underside of the wagons must be maintained, or above the wagons or wagon boxes on the roof, again keeping safety distances from moving parts or the overhead line ,
  • connection devices are on the elements of the means of transport to be connected arranged devices to which the connecting element is mechanically fixed or to which the connecting element is mechanically connected.
  • a bracket must also allow pivoting, nodding and swaying of the connected wagons. Furthermore, the connecting elements must not protrude from a predetermined space, which is bounded in particular downwards towards the track bed or wagon roof and laterally, so that the connecting elements cannot pose a hazard.
  • EP 2495151 A1 discloses a holding device for holding at least one flexible connecting element, wherein by means of the connecting element it is possible to connect two elements spaced apart from one another and pivotable relative to one another about an axis of rotation, in particular carriages of a rail-bound means of transport.
  • the holding device has at least three links, each link having two swivel joints.
  • the links are rotatably fastened to one another by means of the swivel joints in such a way that the links form a link chain, end links of the chain being rotatably fastened to a carrier device by means of one of their swivel joints.
  • At least one member is designed as a holding member, the holding member forming a holding device or having a holding device, the flexible connecting element being able to be fixedly connected to the holding member by means of the holding device.
  • this holding device two elements which can be pivoted relative to one another can be connected in such a way that a necessary sag of the connecting elements and thus also a required installation space for these connecting elements is reduced.
  • connection of connection elements in the area of vehicle joints still leads to the problem of the connection elements bending in the area of the ends of the connection elements when rail vehicle elements, such as, for example, carriages, are pivoted relative to one another about the axis of rotation of the joint.
  • This bending which in extreme cases can lead to kinking, affects the durability of the connecting elements.
  • large radii have been selected for the guidance of connecting elements and connecting elements have been designed to be long so that they have a large excess length when driving straight ahead, which serves to compensate for the change in distance between the first and the second connecting device when cornering.
  • This excess length leads however, to a large sag of the connecting elements, so that suspensions against excessive sag are necessary.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a solution to this problem.
  • a solution should be specified as to how the connecting means are made as short as possible and thereby an excess length can be reduced.
  • connection arrangement according to claim 1.

  • a second connection device to which the flexible connecting element can be connected, is rotatably mounted on a second rail vehicle element.
  • connection devices can counteract a rotary movement or swiveling of the rail vehicle elements about an axis of rotation of the joint and compensate in the extreme case, which does not always have to be the case. This is particularly the case if the connection devices are each rotatably mounted on a rail vehicle element. In this case, the connection devices can perform a counter-rotation movement to the rotation of the rail vehicle elements about an axis of rotation of the joint.
  • the course of a connecting element between rail vehicle elements depends on the angle of rotation between the rail vehicle elements, also referred to as the joint angle or Swivel angle, automatically optimized in that, as a result of a rotation of the rail vehicle elements relative to one another about the axis of rotation of the joint, the position of each connection device relative to the rail vehicle element on which it is movably mounted adjusts itself automatically and an optimized guidance of the connecting element is achieved.
  • Optimized guidance of the connecting element means in particular the least possible curvature, the lowest possible tensile forces and / or the lowest possible bending forces on the connecting element at a connection point on a connection device.
  • the position of the connection devices relative to the respective rail vehicle element to which it is fastened is preferably set passively.
  • the term “swivel joint” also includes joints which, in addition to rotation about an axis of rotation of the joint (Z axis, vertical axis), also permit movement by one or more other degrees of freedom.
  • rotation about a transverse axis can also be made possible with the swivel joint, so that the swivel joint in a special form is a swivel-pitch joint.

  • the connecting element is connected to a first section of the connecting element, in particular to a first end of the connecting element, to the first connecting device and to a second section of the connecting element, in particular a second end of the connecting element, to the second connecting device.

  • FIG. 4 it is shown that the connecting means 49 (and others) between the terminal boxes 45 and 47 are oriented differently than the connecting means 50 (and others not designated by reference numerals) between the terminal boxes 46 and 48.
  • End section of the connecting means 49 leave the terminal boxes 45 and 47 in FIG Module longitudinal direction X1 or X2.
  • end sections of the connecting means 50 which are connected to the terminal boxes 46 and 48, are led out of the terminal boxes 46, 48 in the module transverse direction Y1 or Y2 or, depending on the consideration, are introduced. Due to the possibility of rotating the terminal boxes 46, 48, the relative orientation of the terminal boxes 46, 48 or the course of the connecting means 50 can be maintained or largely retained in the event of a joint rotation about the Z axis.
  • connecting means or bundles of connecting means as in Fig. 4 shown to lay crossed.
  • a bundle of connecting means can be guided from the terminal box 48 to the terminal box 45.
  • a connecting means would then be guided from a first side of a first rail vehicle part 41 to a second side of a second rail vehicle element 42.
  • a side is defined here as a side to the right of the longitudinal axis X1 or X2 or a side to the left of the longitudinal axis X1 or X2.
  • the terms right and left refer to the direction of travel F.
  • Such a laying of a connecting means from one vehicle side to a second side of the vehicle can be realized particularly advantageously if corresponding terminal boxes, between which the connecting means extends, are slidably mounted, as in FIG Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 described using the embodiment there.
  • Such guidance of a connecting means can also already be advantageously realized if the terminal boxes or more generally the connection devices are rotatably mounted, as in FIG Fig. 4 shown. An optimal orientation of the terminal boxes relative to each other is already possible through a rotatable mounting.
