Definitions

  • the invention relates to a vehicle with an arrangement for a transition of lines of several types of supply between carriages of a vehicle, the carriages of which are mechanically connected to one another by means of a coupling rod.
  • a carriage transition system In vehicles for passenger transport in particular, what is known as a carriage transition system is used to couple the carriages of the vehicle to one another and to bridge the distance between adjacent carriages.
  • a car transition system usually consists of a bellows or corrugated bellows, which allows passengers a safe transition between adjacent cars and protected from environmental influences, a floor connection system, for example in the form of a link or combination bridge or a bridge plate, a close coupling and transition lines. Close couplings are used in particular in rail vehicles that are designed as a multiple unit with traction components that are distributed over the rail vehicle.
  • An example of such a high-speed train with distributed traction is the Velaro D, also known as the BR 407 series or ICE 3, as used by Deutsche Bahn AG.
  • Transition lines are used, for example, to transfer energy between adjacent cars to supply drive and auxiliary components, control and communication signals, and fluids, such as compressed air for a pneumatic brake system of the vehicle.
  • electrical lines can also Be summarized cables with a plurality of lines and common insulation.
  • the car transition is designed in such a way that the close coupling is located inside the corrugated bellows, while the power and control lines are routed via a separate cable duct, which is arranged hanging below the corrugated bellows and is attached to the car bodies by means of shackles .
  • Information on this cable duct can be found in the documents "Connection technology for the railways", 2014 edition, from the company Huber+Suhner, especially page 9 and the lower image on page 13, as well as the white paper "Car transition systems", 2011 edition, from the company Huber+ Suhner, specifically pages 14 and 20.
  • a similar concept is also presented in the document “Rolling Stock Kunststoff & Systeme", August 2015, from the Leoni company, specifically on page 246.
  • the object of the present invention is to specify a transition between cars of a vehicle, which allows a complete arrangement of all lines or cables within a corrugated or bellows of the car transition system. This object is solved by the features of the independent patent claim. Advantageous developments of the invention are specified in the dependent patent claims.
  • a vehicle is specified with an arrangement for a transition of lines of several types of supply between cars of a vehicle, in which lines of one type of supply are combined to form at least one respective line module, and the line modules each along a specific longitudinal side of a coupling rod, which is a mechanical coupling of adjacent cars serves, arranged and fixed by means of at least one bracket on the coupling rod.
  • the arrangement according to the invention of line modules for different types of supply on the coupling rod, for example a close coupling makes it possible, on the one hand, to accommodate all lines required for the supply within the corrugated or bellows of the car transition system, and on the other hand, the modular arrangement enables the line transition between cars to be configured to suit the respective requirements of the vehicle.
  • the line modules are used for the exchange or transmission of energy, communication signals, control signals and/or fluids between the carriages of the vehicle.
  • fluids include both liquids and gases, which are used, for example, in the form of hydraulic oil or compressed air in the vehicle's brake system.
  • An exchange of electrical energy between cars of a train can be used both lines of a so-called train bus bar, for example for supplying so-called auxiliaries, and so-called power lines, which supply energy for traction components arranged in a car of the vehicle.
  • Power lines are preferably used when there is no direct access to an energy supply such as an overhead line or a generator in a car itself.
  • Control and communication signals are usually also transmitted via electrical lines, but alternatively optical lines can also be used for this purpose.
  • the one or more line modules for the energy transmission are arranged below and the one or more line modules for the transmission of control and/or communication signals and for the transmission of fluids are each arranged to the side of the coupling rod.
  • the one or more line modules for the transmission of fluids can in turn be arranged to the side of the one or more line modules mentioned for the transmission of control and/or communication signals.
  • the vehicle as a rail vehicle and in particular as a multiple unit with a plurality of cars for the designed passenger transport.
  • close couplings are used in particular in high-speed trains that consist of a specific or non-flexibly changeable configuration of several cars, in particular end and middle cars.
  • trains also require a transition of a large number of lines for the supply of a wide variety of components between cars of the train, so that minimizing the installation space required for the line transitions is particularly advantageous in this type of vehicle.
  • the one or more line modules for the energy transmission have both lines of the so-called train busbar for auxiliary systems arranged in the car and lines for supplying traction components arranged in the car, the above-mentioned power lines, on.
  • lines of the train busbar and power lines are combined into separate line modules.
  • both the coupling rod and the line modules fastened to the coupling rod are arranged inside the corrugated or bellows of the car transition system to meet requirements, in particular for optimized aerodynamics of the vehicle.
  • interfaces for a car-side connection of the lines of the line modules are arranged below a respective car body of the adjacent car and outside of the corrugated or bellows (WB).
  • WB corrugated or bellows
  • FIG 1 shows a schematic side view of a rail vehicle TZ with several carriages, in which FIG 1 only an end car EW and an associated middle car MW are shown as an example.
  • the two cars EW, MW are, for example, part of a multiple unit for passenger transport.
  • the cars each have a car body WK, which is supported on bogies DG in the form of motor or trailer bogies on rails, not shown.
  • the multiple unit TZ moves in the direction of travel FR along the rails.
  • the car bodies WK of the two cars EW, MW shown are connected to one another by means of a car transition system which, as described in the introduction, has, among other things, a short coupling KK, several transition lines L, a corrugated bellows WB and a floor transition system (not shown).
  • the corrugated bellows WB can be made in one piece, with the two sides of a respective end face of the car bodies WK being fastened.
  • the corrugated bellows can also be made in several parts and, for example, have two partial corrugated bellows, which are connected to one another by means of a support frame supported on the coupling rod KS of the short coupling KK.
  • the corrugated bellows create a transition between the two adjacent cars that is closed off from the environment and thus enables passengers to make a protected transition between the car bodies.
  • the corrugated bellows WB or the respective partial corrugated bellows usually has one in the FIG 1 inner corrugated bellows, also not shown in detail, and an outer corrugated bellows enveloping the inner corrugated bellows.
  • the coupling rod KS of the short coupling KK together with the lines L attached to it is preferably arranged in the space between the lower inner and the lower outer corrugated bellows.
  • the coupling rod KS of the short coupling KK is fastened, for example, to a frame below the respective car body or is connected to a coupling element KE fastened there by means of several screws.
  • the short coupling KK is, for example, a coupling of the known type Scharfenberg, although other types of couplings can be used in the same way.
  • Lines L for the types of supply required in each case are guided or fastened in the area of the car transition to the coupling rod KS of the short coupling KK through several holders H.
  • the lines L are guided or attached to the underside of the coupling rod KS by means of four brackets H distributed over the length of the coupling rod KS, the lines L are guided along the side of the coupling rod KS, ie in the direction of travel FR or in the longitudinal axis of the multiple unit TZ seen laterally next to the coupling rod KS, but is possible in the same way, as is described in more detail below.
  • the holders H are arranged, for example, in such a way that possible movement of the lines L along the length of the coupling rod KS, ie in the area between the two outer holders H, is restricted or excluded in order to avoid possible wear or breakage of lines in this area .
  • the lines L are provided with a certain excess length in order to be able to compensate for relative movements between the wagons or between the close coupling KK and the respective wagon, without these movements causing increased tensile or pressure loads on the lines L occur.
  • the lines L in the region of the ends Coupling rod KS of the short coupling KK fastened by means of brackets H, since the relative movements of the lines L are comparatively small at these points of the coupling rod KS.
  • the lines L are also, possibly depending on the type of supply, each via an interface S or via connections with corresponding, arranged in the area of the car body WK, in FIG 1 connected lines not shown separately.
  • the lines on the wagon for the various types of supply are routed, for example, in a housing (not shown) which is arranged below the wagon body WK in the area of the wagon transition.
  • the interfaces S are also preferably connected to the housings by suitable means and are thus fixed to the car bodies.
  • the interfaces S can each be at an angle to a vertical orientation, as shown in FIG 1 is given as an example, be arranged in order to realize a kink-free course of the lines between the respective outer bracket H of the coupling rod KS and the interface S or the connections.
  • a further interface can be provided on the carriage, at which the lines on the carriage are terminated.
  • Such a vehicle-side interface can, for example, be connected to the interface S, at which the lines L are terminated, by means of known plug connections.
  • FIG 2 and 4 show a schematic sectional view of a respective exemplary structure of a holder H, as it is attached to a coupling rod KS, as well as line modules LM or lines L of the various types of supply guided in or attached to this according to a first embodiment of the invention.
  • 3 and 5 additionally show a corresponding end face of the associated interface S with an exemplary arrangement of connections or terminations of the respective Line modules LM or lines L of the different types of supply.
  • the respective number of line modules or lines for each type of supply is only given as an example and must be adapted in practice according to the requirements.

  • these will guided via special brackets that are supported on the bracket or brackets for the power lines LL.
  • Said fastening of the holder H exclusively on the underside of the coupling rod KS of the short coupling KK offers the advantage that the complete combination of line modules and holder or holders can be connected to the coupling rod KS and separated again from it. This enables a comparatively simple exchange of the assembly without the need to separate or disassemble the coupling rod KS itself. In the same way, individual line modules can also be exchanged without dismantling the entire assembly if they are attached to the short coupling using separate brackets or brackets for other line modules.
  • the lines LL for the energy supply or its line module LML are terminated via the lower two rows of connections, while the lines LS or the line modules LMS for the transmission of or supply with control and/or communication signals via the upper row Connections of the interface S are terminated.

  • the individual line modules LML and LMS or lines LL and LS are fastened to this holder H, for example by means of respective clamps, in particular clamps in block form.
  • the lines LF or line modules LMF for the transport of fluids LF are not routed to the side of the lines LS or line modules LMS for signal transmission, but are arranged above them, for example.
  • the space required in the horizontal direction and perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the coupling rod KS for guiding the line modules or the lines can be reduced.
  • Interfaces S shown differ from those in 3 and 5 Interfaces S shown to the effect that the connections of the lines LF or line modules LMF for the transport of fluids are arranged in the top row and to the side of the connections for the lines LS or line modules LMS for the signal transmission.
