Description

The present invention relates to a rail vehicle composite having pairs of cars with complementary components.

In public passenger transport, it is usually necessary to provide maximum transport capacity in combination with optimized use of traction available to achieve a desired maximum passenger throughput in an existing rail network. Especially for commuter traffic S-Bahn trains are used in the vicinity.

The in EP 2 335 993 A1 described rail train has a first wagon, a second wagon and a third wagon, wherein the third wagon between the first wagon and the second wagon is arranged. At least one of the wagons is a transport module with passenger seats. The three wagons have different lengths.

It is an object of the invention to provide a rail vehicle which is easily scalable with respect to the overall length of a train.

The object is achieved by a rail vehicle composite, also referred to as rail train or rail car composite, according to claim 1. Advantageous embodiments are specified in the subclaims to claim 1.

The rail vehicle network is divided into the following pairs of cars or divisible: $$\left(\mathrm{EW\; K}1\right)-\left(\mathrm{MW\; K}2\right).$$

$$\left(\mathrm{MW\; K}1\right)-\left(\mathrm{EW\; K}2\right)$$

and, if n> 1, $$\left(\mathrm{MW\; K}1\right)-\left(\mathrm{MW\; K}2\right)\mathrm{,}$$

These pairs of cars are not additional components or elements of the rail vehicle network described above, but the pairs of cars are units according to the definition in which the rail vehicle network can be divided.

mit den Wagenpaaren (EW K1) - (MW K2) und (MW K1) - (EW K2).With n = 1, the following composition is obtained: $$\left(\mathrm{EW\; K}1\right)-\left(\mathrm{MW\; K}2\right)-\left(\mathrm{MW\; K}1\right)-\left(\mathrm{EW\; K}2\right)$$

with the car pairs (EW K1) - (MW K2) and (MW K1) - (EW K2).

with the car pairs (EW K1) - (MW K2), (MW K1) - (MW K2) and (MW K1) - (EW K2).

mit den Wagenpaaren (EW K1) - (MW K2), zwei Wagenpaaren (MW K1) - (MW K2) und (MW K1) - (EW K2).With n = 3, the following composition is obtained: $$\left(\mathrm{EW\; K}1\right)-\left(\mathrm{MW\; K}2\right)-\left(\mathrm{MW\; K}1\right)-\left(\mathrm{MW\; K}2\right)-\left(\mathrm{MW\; K}1\right)-\left(\mathrm{EW\; K}2\right)-\left(\mathrm{MW\; K}1\right)-\left(\mathrm{EW\; K}2\right)$$

with the car pairs (EW K1) - (MW K2), two car pairs (MW K1) - (MW K2) and (MW K1) - (EW K2).

A transition between the wagons may be structurally associated with one of the adjacent wagons, ie, when the wagons are separated, the transition to one of the wagons remains. The above principle representations of the composition meet this no determination, so in particular a bracket, which clings to a transition, does not specify which car a transition is structurally assigned.

The rail vehicle network is in particular a rail vehicle network for passenger transport, also referred to as a passenger train. "Preferred examples are a long-distance train, a commuter train, a rapid-transit railway and a streetcar

• Es wird durch die Erfindung ein modulares Fahrzeugkonzept bereitgestellt, das auf einfache Weise skalierbar ist, um einen Schienenfahrzeugverbund gewünschter Länge und Sitzplatzkapazität zu erhalten. Zur Verlängerung werden lediglich so viele Einheiten [- (MW K2) - (MW K1)] eingefügt wie erforderlich.
• Der Schienenfahrzeugverbund ist durchgängig begehbar, was aus Sicherheitsgründen und zur gleichmäßigen Fahrgastverteilung vorteilhaft ist. Der Übergang zwischen Wagen kann als Übergangsbrücke ausgebildet sein. Der Übergang kann eine Drehplattform aufweisen. Der Übergang kann einen Faltenbalg aufweisen.
• Der Schienenfahrzeugverbund ist aus lediglich vier verschiedenen Typen Wagen zusammengesetzt, nämlich Endwagen mit Konfiguration 1 (EW K1), Endwagen mit Konfiguration 2 (EW K2), Mittelwagen mit Konfiguration 1 (MW K1), und Mittelwagen mit Konfiguration 2 (MW K2), wodurch eine wesentliche Vereinfachung in Fertigung, Produktion und Wartung erzielt wird.
• Je nach Wahl der Konfiguration und Zuordnung bzw. Verteilung der Komponenten auf die beiden Konfigurationen (K1 und K2) kann eine weitgehend homogene Masseverteilung über die gesamte Länge eines Schienenzugs erzielt werden

With such a rail vehicle network, the following advantages are achieved in particular:

• The invention provides a modular vehicle concept which is easily scalable in order to obtain a rail vehicle network of desired length and seat capacity. For extension, only as many units [- (MW K2) - (MW K1)] are inserted as required.
• The rail vehicle network is consistently accessible, which is advantageous for safety reasons and for uniform passenger distribution. The transition between cars can be designed as a transition bridge. The transition can have a turntable. The transition may have a bellows.
• The rolling stock group is composed of only four different types of wagons, namely end wagon with configuration 1 (EW K1), end wagon with configuration 2 (EW K2), middle wagon with configuration 1 (MW K1), and middle wagon with configuration 2 (MW K2) a significant simplification in production, production and maintenance is achieved.
• Depending on the choice of configuration and assignment or distribution of the components on the two configurations (K1 and K2), a largely homogeneous mass distribution over the entire length of a rail train can be achieved

In one embodiment of the invention, the configuration 1 and the configuration 2 complement each other in a pair of cars to a set of electrical components, which is sufficient for the drive and the power supply of the car pair. This means, in other words, that the car pair in terms of drive and the power supply independent of another car or another car pair. This concept is also known as the "married pair".

In particular, electrical components are selected from traction converters, traction motors, also referred to as traction motors, energy accumulators, pantographs, battery, battery chargers, auxiliary equipment supply, auxiliary converters, transformer, human-machine interface (HMI), vehicle control unit (Verhicle Control Unit, VCU) and / or gateway.

Selected electrical components may be present in each car, in particular traction converter and / or traction motor.

Components may only be present once per pair of wagons, i. be provided in one of the cars of the car pair, in particular energy storage, battery and / or battery charger. Preferably, it is provided that in a pair of cars selected electrical components are present only once, so are present in one of the cars of a pair of cars. Only once existing electrical components are preferably distributed to the two cars of a pair of cars. In particular, components are distributed so that the most homogeneous possible mass distribution is obtained, i. the two cars of a pair of cars have a similar mass. Components may alternatively or additionally be distributed such that mass is arranged or concentrated above the driven axle to improve traction. Components may alternatively or additionally be distributed so that an optimized, in particular as short as possible, (total) cable length, in particular of power cables, is achieved.

In one embodiment of a rail vehicle network, the carriages of the carriage pair are electrically coupled to transmit high voltage in a pair of carriages. There is an electrical coupling for transmitting high voltage only between the cars of a pair of cars available. There is thus no electrical coupling for high voltage to another pair of cars available. The pairs of cars are thus electrically decoupled with each other so that no transmission of high voltage from one pair of cars to another pair of cars can be done. This embodiment can be used in particular in a rail vehicle composite, which has lateral pantographs.

Specified in a special embodiment, a rail vehicle composite, the side pantograph has. Side collectors cooperate with a busbar.

a composite of three car pairs rail vehicle network.

The in Fig. 1 Train SV1 shown has the end car with the configuration 1 EW K1, the middle car with the configuration 2 MW K2, the middle car with the configuration 1 MW K1 and the end car with the configuration 2 EW K2. The two pairs EW K1 - MW K2 and MW K1 - EW K2 are formed. Between the car, a transition Ü is provided in each case, which is assigned in each case structurally one of the adjacent car.

The end car EW K1 and the center car MW K1 have an identical configuration with electrical components, referred to as configuration 1 or first configuration. The configuration 1 comprises the following components: the side pantograph SA, the energy storage ES, the traction converter STR and the traction motors M.

Wheels R are shown under wagons EW K1, MW K2, MW K1 and EW K2. Hatched wheels are powered wheels.

The middle car MW K2 and the end car EW K2 have a configuration K2 with electrical components, also referred to as the second configuration. The second configuration comprises the following electrical components: the side-commutator SA, a combination AUX auxiliary power converter, battery charger and battery, collectively referred to as AUX / Batt, a traction converter STR and traction motors M. Furthermore, in the configuration 2 there is a compressor C, which is a three-phase air compressor for supplying the brake system with compressed air and thus an auxiliary power supply device.

In the first pair of cars the end car with the configuration 1 EW K1 and the middle car with the configuration 2 MW K2 are electrically coupled for the transmission of high voltage. Between the side pantographs SA, the high voltage connection U is present. In an analogous manner, a high voltage connection U between the side pantographs of the car of the second pair, MW K1 and EW K2, is present. The two pairs are, however, separated from each other high voltage side, because between the side pantograph SA of the center car MW K2 and the side pantograph SA of the center car MW K1 no high voltage connection is provided.

Fig. 2 shows the train SV2 the same Zugbildungsprinzip as Fig. 1 , with the difference that there are three pairs of cars, which are delimited by dashed lines. Compared to Fig. 1 There is a middle car pair with a middle car of configuration 1 MW K1 and a middle car of configuration 2 MW K2. This middle pair of carriages may be multiple, according to the general train formation principle n times. at Fig. 2 it is a so-called three-quarter move, while Fig. 1 represents a half-turn. Are two pairs of middle cars available, so compared to Fig. 2 yet another one is called a law enforcement. The configurations and high-voltage side couplings between pantographs SA are the same as those in FIG Fig. 1 ,
