Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Schienenfahrzeug zur Personenbeförderung mit einer in einem Einstiegsbereich des Schienenfahrzeugs angeordneten, linear verschiebbaren Trittplattform zur Überbrückung eines Spalts in horizontaler Richtung zwischen dem Einstiegsbereich des Schienenfahrzeugs und einem Bahnsteig.The invention relates to a rail vehicle for passenger transport with a linearly displaceable tread platform arranged in an entry region of the rail vehicle for bridging a gap in the horizontal direction between the entry region of the rail vehicle and a platform.

Solche Trittplattformen sind dem Fachmann beispielsweise aus der DE 20 2010 000 524 U1 bekannt, wobei hier ein weiterer Tritt schwenkbar an der horizontal verschiebbaren Trittplattform gelagert ist, um den Ein- oder Ausstieg bei einer zu großen Höhendifferenz zwischen einem Fußbodenniveau des Einstiegsbereichs des Schienenfahrzeugs und einem Bahnsteigniveau mit einer Zwischenstufe zu erleichtern. Jedoch ist ein solcher Zugang nicht behindertengerecht.Such tread platforms are the expert from the example of DE 20 2010 000 524 U1 Here, another step is pivotally mounted on the horizontally displaceable tread platform in order to facilitate the entry or exit at a too large height difference between a floor level of the boarding area of the rail vehicle and a platform level with an intermediate stage. However, such access is not handicapped accessible.

Sind Trittplattformen lediglich linear, meist in horizontaler Richtung verschiebbar, werden sie auch gelegentlich als Schiebetritte bezeichnet. Nachteilig ist hierbei, dass bei der Herstellung von Schienenfahrzeugen Bauteiltoleranzen auftreten, so dass die tatsächliche Hohe der Auftrittsfläche eines Schiebetritts deutlich vom vorgegebenen Nennmaß abweichen kann. Dies ist insbesondere von Bedeutung, wenn die Einhaltung von gesetzlichen, normativen oder vertraglichen Vorgaben geboten ist, wie z.B. die Einhaltung eines maximal zulässigen Höhenunterschieds zwischen der Auftrittsfläche des Schiebetritts und der Bahnsteigoberfläche. Zusätzlich zu Bauteiltoleranzen kommt es sowohl im Betrieb, als auch in der Wartung der Schienenfahrzeuge zu Ereignissen, die die Höhe genannte Höhendifferenz beeinflussen, wie z.B. Radreifenverschleiß, Setzungseffekte von Federelementen oder Überdrehen von Radreifen. Eine Höhenanpassung der Schiebetritte an das Bahnsteigniveau kann im Anheben oder Absenken des Fahrzeugs geschehen, beispielsweise durch Beilagen unter den Sekundärfedern oder durch eine Nachregeleung der Luftfederung, was sehr aufwendig ist.If tread platforms are merely linear, usually displaceable in the horizontal direction, they are sometimes also referred to as sliding steps. The disadvantage here is that in the production of rail vehicles component tolerances occur, so that the actual height of the tread surface of a sliding step can differ significantly from the specified nominal size. This is of particular importance when compliance with legal, normative or contractual requirements is required, such as compliance with a maximum allowable height difference between the surface of the sliding step and the platform surface. In addition to component tolerances, both in operation and in the maintenance of rail vehicles occur events that affect the altitude height difference, such as wheel tire wear, setting effects of spring elements or overspeeding of tires. A height adjustment of the Schiebetritte to the platform level can be done in raising or lowering of the vehicle, for example, by enclosing under the secondary springs or by a readjustment of the air suspension, which is very expensive.

Weitere Trittplattformen, die auch in vertikaler Richtung höhenverstellbar sind, sind bekannt geworden, um voneinander verschiedene Bahnsteighöhen bedienen zu können, wie z.B. aus der DE 38 12 564 A1 , DE 10 2005 057 901 A1 , DE 10 2010 022 407 A1 oder aus der FR 2 873 635 A1 . Dabei sind jeweils die gesamten Konstruktionen in der Höhe beweglich ausgebildet zur Anpassung des Fußbodenniveaus des Einstiegsbereichs des Schienenfahrzeugs und des Bahnsteigniveaus.Other tread platforms, which are vertically adjustable in the vertical direction, have become known to serve different platform heights can, for example from the DE 38 12 564 A1 . DE 10 2005 057 901 A1 . DE 10 2010 022 407 A1 or from the FR 2 873 635 A1 , In each case, the entire structures are designed to be movable in height to adapt the floor level of the boarding area of the rail vehicle and the platform level.

No. 6,167,816 B1 . GB 2 369 344 A . US Pat. No. 6,186,733 B1 . US 5,775,232 such as EP 1 078 813 A2 each teach tread platforms, which are initially displaceable in the horizontal direction and in the extended state in their inclination adjustable.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, jede einzelne Trittplattform eines Schienenfahrzeugs einfach und schnell an das Bahnsteigniveau anzupassen.The invention has for its object to easily and quickly adapt each platform of a rail vehicle to the platform level.

Gelöst wird die Aufgabe durch den Gegenstand des unabhängigen Patentanspruchs 1. Weiterbildungen und Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung finden sich in den Merkmalen der abhängigen Patentansprüche wieder.The object is achieved by the subject matter of independent claim 1. Further developments and refinements of the invention can be found in the features of the dependent claims again.

Ein erfindungsgemäßes Schienenfahrzeug zur Personenbeförderung umfasst wenigstens eine in einem Einstiegsbereich des Schienenfahrzeugs angeordneten, linear verschiebbare Trittplattform zur Überbrückung eines Spalts in horizontaler Richtung zwischen dem Einstiegsbereich des Schienenfahrzeugs und einem Bahnsteig, wobei die Trittplattform einen vorderen Abschnitt umfasst, welcher einen Teil einer Trittfläche der Trittplattform bildet, und wobei die Trittplattform im Bereich des vorderen Abschnitts eine stufenförmige Ausnehmung zur Aufnahme des vorderen Abschnitts aufweist, in welcher der vordere Abschnitt zur Bildung einer Rampe zwischen der übrigen Trittfläche der Trittplattform und dem Bahnsteig um eine horizontale Achse drehbar an der Trittplattform gelagert ist.An inventive rail vehicle for passenger transport comprises at least one arranged in an entry area of the rail vehicle, linearly displaceable tread platform for bridging a gap in the horizontal direction between the boarding area of the rail vehicle and a platform, wherein the tread platform comprises a front portion which forms part of a tread surface of the tread platform , and wherein the tread platform in the region of the front portion has a stepped recess for receiving the front portion, in which the front portion is rotatably mounted on the tread platform for forming a ramp between the remaining tread surface of the tread platform and the platform about a horizontal axis.

Der vordere Abschnitt der Trittplattform dient somit zur Überbrückung eines Höhenunterschieds zwischen der übrigen Trittfläche der Trittplattform und der Bahnsteigoberfläche. Der Höhenunterschied zwischen der übrigen Trittfläche der Trittplattform und der Bahnsteigoberfläche kann auch als Spalt in vertikaler Richtung bezeichnet werden.The front portion of the tread platform thus serves to bridge a height difference between the remaining tread surface of the tread platform and the platform surface. The difference in height between the remaining tread of the Tread platform and the platform surface can also be referred to as a gap in the vertical direction.

Die Trittplattform weist somit eine Trittfläche zum Begehen durch Fahrgäste auf, welche in zumindest zwei Teile geteilt ist. Der vordere Abschnitt bildet den ersten Teil. Dieser ist in einem voll ausgeschobenem Zustand der Trittplattform vom Einstiegsbereich des Schienenfahrzeugs beabstandet und auf der vom Schienenfahrzeug abgewandten Seite der Trittplattform angeordnet. Der übrige, zweite Teil der Trittfläche der Trittplattform ist im voll ausgeschobenem Zustand der Trittplattform dem Einstiegsbereich des Schienenfahrzeugs zugewandt und somit in horizontaler Richtung zwischen dem ersten Teil der Trittfläche des vorderen Abschnitts und dem Einstiegsbereich des Schienenfahrzeugs angeordnet.The treadboard thus has a tread for walking by passengers, which is divided into at least two parts. The front section forms the first part. This is spaced in a fully extended state of the tread platform from the entry area of the rail vehicle and arranged on the side facing away from the rail vehicle of the tread platform. The remaining, second part of the tread surface of the tread platform is in the fully extended state of the tread platform facing the entry region of the rail vehicle and thus arranged in the horizontal direction between the first part of the tread surface of the front portion and the entry region of the rail vehicle.

Der übrige, zweite Teil der Trittfläche ist entlang einer vorgegebenen Ebene relativ zum Schienenfahrzeug verschiebbar. An diesen übrigen, zweiten Teil der Trittfläche schließt der vordere Abschnitt und damit der erste Teil der Trittfläche, welcher von dem vorderen Abschnitt gebildet ist, insbesondere unmittelbar, an. Der erste Teil der Trittfläche des vorderen Abschnitts kann dabei parallel zur übrigen, zweiten Trittfläche verlaufen, so dass die Trittplattform eine ebene Trittfläche bildet. Der vordere Abschnitt kann jedoch, um den Ein- und/oder Ausstieg zu erleichtern, um die Achse geschwenkt bzw. geneigt werden und somit eine Rampe zwischen der übrigen Trittfläche der Trittplattform und dem Bahnsteig bilden.The remaining, second part of the tread is displaceable along a predetermined plane relative to the rail vehicle. At this remaining, second part of the tread surface of the front portion and thus the first part of the tread surface, which is formed by the front portion includes, in particular directly to. The first part of the tread surface of the front portion may be parallel to the other, second tread surface, so that the tread platform forms a flat tread surface. However, the front portion may, in order to facilitate the entry and / or exit, be pivoted about the axis and thus form a ramp between the remaining tread surface of the tread platform and the platform.

Die Trittplattform weist im Bereich des vorderen Abschnitts eine stufenförmige Ausnehmung zur Aufnahme des vorderen Abschnitts der Trittplattform auf. In der stufenförmigen Ausnehmung ist der vordere Abschnitt der Trittplattform drehbar gelagert. Die stufenförmige Ausnehmung ist im ausgeschobenen Zustand der Trittplattform auf einer vom Einstiegsbereich des Schienenfahrzeugs abgewandten und dem Bahnsteig zugewandten Seite, insbesondere im Bereich einer vom Schienenfahrzeug abgewandten und dem Bahnsteig zugewandten Stirnseite der Trittplattform angeordnet. Die dem Schienenfahrzeug abgewandte Stirnseite der Trittplattform begrenzt die Trittplattform insbesondere in horizontaler Richtung auf dieser Seite. Sie kann einen Anschlag zum Anliegen an einer Bahnsteigkante bilden, so dass die Trittplattform und damit auch der erste Abschnitt der Trittplattform nicht auf dem Bahnsteig aufliegen, sondern an die Bahnsteigkante stoßen, gegebenenfalls unter Bildung eines vorgegebenen, kleinen Spalts zwischen der Bahnsteigkante und der Stirnseite der Trittplattform. Der Spalt beträgt einen maximalen Wert, bestimmt durch Zulassungsvorschriften oder Betreibervorgaben.The tread platform has in the region of the front portion of a stepped recess for receiving the front portion of the tread platform. In the stepped recess of the front portion of the tread platform is rotatably mounted. The step-shaped recess is in the extended state of the tread platform on a side facing away from the entry area of the rail vehicle and the platform side facing, in particular in the area facing away from the rail vehicle and the platform facing end side of the tread platform arranged. The end face of the tread platform facing away from the rail vehicle limits the tread platform in particular in the horizontal direction on this side. It may form a stop for abutment with a platform edge, so that the tread platform and thus also the first portion of the tread platform do not rest on the platform, but hit the platform edge, possibly forming a predetermined, small gap between the platform edge and the front of the stepping platform. The gap is a maximum value, determined by approval regulations or operator specifications.

Gemäß einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist die Trittplattform linear in horizontaler Richtung verschiebbar. Diese horizontale Verschiebung erfolgt insbesondere entlang einer Achse senkrecht zu einer Langsachse des Schienenfahrzeugs. Dabei wird die gesamte Trittplattform inklusive dem vorderen Abschnitt relativ zum Schienenfahrzeug verschoben. Eine Ausbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Lösung sieht vor, dass der übrige, zweite Teil der Trittfläche ausschließlich entlang eincr vorgegebenen Ebene, insbesondere horizontal relativ zum Schienenfahrzeug verschiebbar ist.According to one embodiment of the invention, the tread platform is linearly displaceable in the horizontal direction. This horizontal displacement takes place in particular along an axis perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the rail vehicle. The entire tread platform including the front section is moved relative to the rail vehicle. An embodiment of the solution according to the invention provides that the remaining, second part of the tread surface exclusively along eincr predetermined level, in particular horizontal relative to the rail vehicle is displaceable.

Eine weitere Weiterbildung ist darin zu sehen, dass die horizontale Achse, um welche der vordere Abschnitt der Trittplattform an der Trittplattform drehbar gelagert ist, parallel zu einer Längsachse des Schienenfahrzeugs verläuft. Die Längsachse des Schienenfahrzeugs zeigt in einem stehenden Zustand des Schienenfahrzeugs an einem Bahnsteig üblicherweise in Fahrtrichtung des Schienenfahrzeugs und auch parallel zum Verlauf einer Kante des Bahnsteigs.A further development is to be seen in that the horizontal axis about which the front portion of the tread platform is rotatably mounted on the tread platform, runs parallel to a longitudinal axis of the rail vehicle. The longitudinal axis of the rail vehicle shows in a stationary state of the rail vehicle at a platform usually in the direction of travel of the rail vehicle and also parallel to the course of an edge of the platform.

Gemäß einer Ausführungsform der Erfindung erreicht der übrige, zweite Teil der Trittplattform im Bereich des Einstiegsbereichs des Schienenfahrzeugs im Wesentlichen das Fußbodenniveau im Einstiegsbereich des Schienenfahrzeugs. Beispielsweise schließt der übrige, zweite Teil der Trittplattform an eine Türschwelle des Einstiegsbereichs an und erreicht so im Wesentlichen das Fußbodenniveau. Der vordere Abschnitt der Trittplattform bildet somit eine Rampe zwischen dem Bahnsteigniveau und dem Fußbodenniveau des Einstiegsbereichs des Schienenfahrzeugs.According to one embodiment of the invention, the remaining, second part of the tread platform in the region of the entry region of the rail vehicle substantially reaches the floor level in the entry region of the rail vehicle. For example, the remaining, second part of the tread platform connects to a door sill of the boarding area and thus substantially reaches the floor level. The front portion of the tread platform thus forms a ramp between the platform level and the floor level of the boarding area of the rail vehicle.

Weitergebildet umfasst das Schienenfahrzeug einen Antrieb, beispielsweise einen elektrischen, hydraulischen oder pneumatischen Antrieb, zum Einstellen eines Neigungswinkels des vorderen, um eine horizontale Achse drehbar gelagerten Abschnitts der Trittplattform.Further developed, the rail vehicle comprises a drive, for example an electric, hydraulic or pneumatic drive, for adjusting a tilt angle of the front, about a horizontal axis rotatably mounted portion of the tread platform.

Die Länge des vorderen Abschnitts der Trittplattform, gemessen bei horizontaler Ausrichtung des vorderen Abschnitts, kann dabei einem vorgegebenen, minimalen Spalt zwischen der Außenhülle des Wagenkastens des Schienenfahrzeugs im Einstiegsbereich des Schienenfahrzeugs und dem Bahnsteig in horizontaler Richtung entsprechen. In diesem Fall ist die Trittplattform im ausgeschobenen Zustand dann soweit eingeschoben, dass die übrige, zweite Trittfläche der Trittplattform nicht betretbar ist.The length of the front portion of the tread platform, measured in the horizontal orientation of the front portion, can thereby correspond to a predetermined, minimum gap between the outer shell of the car body of the rail vehicle in the entry area of the rail vehicle and the platform in the horizontal direction. In this case, the tread platform is pushed in pushed-out state so far that the remaining, second tread surface of the tread platform is not accessible.

Ein Spalt in vertikaler Richtung zwischen der vorderen, dem Bahnsteig zugewandten Kante der ersten Trittfläche des vorderen Abschnitts der Trittplattform und der Bahnsteigoberfläche beträgthöchstens 20 mm, insbesondere höchstens 15, 8 mm. Der maximale Nelgungswinkel des vorderen Abschnitts der Trittplattform beträgt höchstens 25%, insbesondere höchstens 18%.A gap in the vertical direction between the front, the platform facing edge of the first tread surface of the front portion of the tread platform and the platform surface is at most 20 mm, in particular at most 15, 8 mm. The maximum angle of inclination of the front section of the tread platform shall not exceed 25%, in particular not more than 18%.

Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Schienenfahrzeug handelt es sich insbesondere um eine Vollbahn.The rail vehicle according to the invention is in particular a full track.

Die Erfindung lässt zahlreiche Ausführungsformen zu. Sie wird anhand der nachfolgenden Figuren näher erläutert, in denen jeweils ein Ausgestaltungsbeispiel dargestellt ist. GleicheThe invention allows numerous embodiments. It will be explained in more detail with reference to the following figures, in each of which a design example is shown. Same
