En variante, le tramway pourrait comporter davantage de voitures, chaque voiture suspendue étant portée par deux voitures porteuses adjacentes.As a variant, the tram could comprise more cars, each suspended car being carried by two adjacent carrier cars.

Les voitures d'extrémité 12 sont identiques ou similaires (sans cabine), si bien que seule l'une d'elles sera décrite ci-dessous.The end cars 12 are identical or similar (without cab), so that only one of them will be described below.

La voiture d'extrémité 12 comporte une cabine de conduite 18, portée par une première caisse structurelle 20. Une telle cabine de conduite 18 est classique, et par exemple identique à celle d'un tramway de transport de passagers. En variante, la voiture d'extrémité est dépourvue de cabine de conduite, selon l'infrastructure réseau.The end car 12 comprises a driving cabin 18, carried by a first structural box 20. Such a driving cab 18 is conventional, and for example identical to that of a passenger tram. Alternatively, the end car has no cab, depending on the network infrastructure.

La première caisse structurelle 20 comporte au moins une première ouverture latérale 22, à travers laquelle s'effectue le chargement et déchargement de la voiture porteuse d'extrémité 12. Cette voiture porteuse d'extrémité 12 comporte au moins un élément 24 mobile entre une position déployée dans laquelle il recouvre la première ouverture latérale 22, et une position escamotée dans laquelle la première ouverture latérale 22 est libérée. Par exemple, l'élément mobile 24 est un volet roulant ou une plaque pivotante.The first structural box 20 comprises at least a first lateral opening 22, through which the loading carrier is loaded and unloaded at the end 12. This end bearing car 12 comprises at least one member 24 movable between an extended position in which it covers the first side opening 22, and a retracted position in which the first side opening 22 is released. For example, the movable member 24 is a shutter or a swivel plate.

Avantageusement, dans le cas d'une solution par volet roulant, la voiture porteuse d'extrémité 12 comporte un coffre 26 de rangement du volet 24 en position escamotée, le coffre de rangement 26 étant agencé en toiture de la voiture porteuse d'extrémité 12. Cet agencement du coffre de rangement 26 en toiture permet d'optimiser le volume dans la voiture porteuse d'extrémité 12.Advantageously, in the case of a rolling shutter solution, the end load carrier 12 comprises a trunk 26 for storing the shutter 24 in the retracted position, the storage trunk 26 being arranged on the roof of the end bearing car 12 This arrangement of the storage compartment 26 on the roof makes it possible to optimize the volume in the end load carrier 12.

Cette voiture d'extrémité 12 peut aussi être motorisée, le bogie 13 étant alors moteur, et disposant d'une chaîne de traction.This end car 12 can also be motorized, the bogie 13 then being a motor, and having a power train.

La voiture centrale 14 comporte une seconde caisse structurelle 28, comprenant au moins une seconde ouverture latérale 30, à travers laquelle s'effectue le chargement et déchargement de la voiture porteuse centrale 14. Cette voiture porteuse centrale 14 comporte au moins un élément 32 mobile entre une position déployée dans laquelle il recouvre la seconde ouverture latérale 30, et une position escamotée dans laquelle la seconde ouverture latérale 30 est libérée. L'élément mobile 32 est, par exemple, un volet roulant ou une plaque pivotante.The central car 14 comprises a second structural body 28, comprising at least a second lateral opening 30, through which the loading and unloading of the central carrier car 14 takes place. This central carrier car 14 comprises at least one movable element 32 between an extended position in which it covers the second side opening 30, and a retracted position in which the second side opening 30 is released. The movable member 32 is, for example, a shutter or a pivot plate.

Avantageusement, dans le cas d'une solution par volet roulant, la voiture porteuse centrale 14 comporte un coffre 34 de rangement du volet 32 en position escamotée, le coffre de rangement 34 étant agencé en toiture de la voiture porteuse centrale 14. Cet agencement du coffre de rangement 34 en toiture permet d'optimiser le volume dans la voiture porteuse centrale 14.Advantageously, in the case of a rolling shutter solution, the central carrier car 14 comprises a storage compartment 34 of the flap 32 in the retracted position, the storage box 34 being arranged on the roof of the central carrier car 14. This arrangement of the storage box 34 on the roof optimizes the volume in the central carrier car 14.

Par ailleurs, la voiture porteuse centrale 14 comporte, en toiture, par exemple un pantographe 36 ou un élément de captation ou un élément autonome d'énergie. Par exemple, le bogie 15 est moteur, et la voiture porteuse centrale 14 est une motrice comportant au moins une chaîne de traction ou une nacelle porteuse. Dans un mode de réalisation, l'alimentation du véhicule est électrique. Elle est, par exemple, réalisée par une alimentation aérienne ou par patin frotteur au sol. En variante, le bogie 15 est simplement porteur.Furthermore, the central carrier car 14 comprises, on the roof, for example a pantograph 36 or a capturing element or an autonomous energy element. For example, the bogie 15 is a motor, and the central carrier car 14 is a power unit comprising at least one traction chain or a carrying nacelle. In one embodiment, the power supply of the vehicle is electric. It is, for example, carried out by an aerial feed or by a friction shoe on the ground. Alternatively, the bogie 15 is simply carrier.

Chaque voiture suspendue 16 comporte une caisse structurelle 38 comportant un plancher 40, ainsi qu'une paroi avant 42 et une paroi arrière 44. La caisse structurelle 38 est dépourvue de pavillon, de sorte que les parois avant 42 et arrière 44 délimitent une ouverture supérieure 46. Cette ouverture supérieure 46 permet l'agencement de containers 48 dans la voiture suspendue 16, dont la hauteur est supérieure à celle des parois avant 42 et arrière 44.Each suspended car 16 comprises a structural box 38 having a floor 40, and a front wall 42 and a rear wall 44. The structural box 38 is without a roof, so that the front walls 42 and rear 44 define an upper opening 46. This upper opening 46 allows the arrangement of containers 48 in the suspended car 16, whose height is greater than that of the front walls 42 and rear 44.

Avantageusement, la caisse structurelle 38 de la voiture suspendue 16 est également dépourvue de parois latérales, de sorte que les parois avant 42 et arrière 44 délimitent des ouvertures latérales 50. Ainsi, le chargement et le déchargement de la voiture suspendue 16 sont réalisés au travers de chaque ouverture latérale 50.Advantageously, the structural box 38 of the suspended car 16 is also devoid of side walls, so that the front 42 and rear 44 walls define lateral openings 50. Thus, the loading and unloading of the suspended car 16 are made through of each lateral opening 50.

Dans un mode de réalisation, la caisse comprend latéralement au moins un battant déposable, c'est-à-dire une pièce escamotable ou amovible, comprenant une traverse longitudinale supérieure et au moins un montant longitudinal vertical. Au moins une plaque est susceptible d'être fixée à la traverse et/ou au montant, de manière à fermer au moins partiellement les ouvertures latérales 50.In one embodiment, the box laterally comprises at least one removable flap, that is to say a retractable or removable piece, comprising an upper longitudinal cross member and at least one vertical longitudinal upright. At least one plate may be fastened to the cross member and / or the upright, so as to at least partially close the lateral openings 50.

Avantageusement, le planche 40 est à niveau de quai, pour faciliter le chargement et déchargement de containers entre la voiture suspendue 16 et un quai auquel est arrêté le tramway 10.Advantageously, the board 40 is at dock level, to facilitate the loading and unloading of containers between the suspended car 16 and a dock at which the tramway 10 is stopped.

L'obstruction des ouvertures latérales 50 peut être réalisée de toute façon envisageable.The obstruction of the lateral openings 50 can be made anyway conceivable.

Par exemple, la voiture suspendue 16 comporte au moins une porte d'accès latérale, mobile entre une position fermée dans laquelle elle recouvre l'une respective des ouvertures latérales 50, et une position ouverte dans laquelle cette ouverture latérale 50 est libérée. Cette porte d'accès est par exemple mobile autour d'un pivot ménagé à proximité du plancher 40, si bien que la porte d'accès en position ouverte forme une plate-forme.For example, the suspended car 16 comprises at least one lateral access door, movable between a closed position in which it covers a respective one of the lateral openings 50, and an open position in which this lateral opening 50 is released. This access door is for example mobile around a pivot formed near the floor 40, so that the access door in the open position forms a platform.

Avantageusement, la voiture suspendue 16 comporte une bâche télescopique 52, mobile entre une position fermée (représentée sur la figure) dans laquelle la bâche 52 recouvre l'ouverture supérieure 46, et une position ouverte dans laquelle l'ouverture supérieure 46 est libérée. Ainsi, il est possible de recouvrir l'ouverture supérieure 46 lorsque la voiture suspendue 16 est vide ou transporte des containers de hauteur inférieure à celle des parois avant 42 et arrière 44.Advantageously, the suspended car 16 comprises a telescopic cover 52, movable between a closed position (shown in the figure) in which the cover 52 covers the upper opening 46, and an open position in which the upper opening 46 is released. Thus, it is possible to cover the upper opening 46 when the suspended car 16 is empty or carries containers of lower height than the front walls 42 and rear 44.

Conformément à une variante, la bâche 52 s'étend latéralement, de sorte qu'elle recouvre également les ouvertures latérales 50 en position fermée, et libère les ouvertures latérales 50 en position ouverte. Une telle bâche 52 vient en remplacement, ou en ajout de ladite porte d'accès.According to a variant, the cover 52 extends laterally, so that it also covers the lateral openings 50 in the closed position, and releases the lateral openings 50 in the open position. Such a tarpaulin 52 replaces or adds said access door.

On notera que l'invention n'est pas limitée au mode de réalisation précédemment décrit, mais pourrait présenter diverses variantes complémentaires.Note that the invention is not limited to the embodiment described above, but could have various complementary variants.
