Modes for carrying out the Invention [0011] The rail vehicle is a general term for vehicles operated along installed tracks, meaning a railway vehicle, a monorail vehicle, a new transportation system vehicle, a tram, and the like. In embodiments shown below, a railway vehicle will he taken as a typical example of the rail vehicle to make a description.
A railway vehicle body structure according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
FIG. I is a side view of a railway vehicle. The railway vehicle is composed of a railway vehicle body structure I (hereinafter referred to as the body structure 1), bogies 2: electric appliances, interior parts, and the like. The body structure 1 is a hexahedron composed of an underframe 10 (see FIG. 2) that forms a floor, side structures 20 vertically arranged in both end portions of the underframe 10 in the width direction, end structures 30 vertically arranged in both end portions of the underframe 10 in the longitudinal direction, and a roof structure 40 supported by top edges of the side structures 20 and top edges of the end structures 30. As shown in FIG. 1, a window 22 for daylighting and ventilation, a side sliding door 21 for passengers to get on or off, and the like are provided in the side structures 20.
[0012] The both end portions of the body structure I in the longitudinal direction (in the direction of an arrow 100 in FIG. 3) are supported by the bogies 2 to be movable on tracks. Body bolsters 15 are provided under the lower surface of the underframe that forms the floor of the body structure I along the width direction of the underirame in portions where the bogies 2 are provided. Air springs 5 (only one of them is shown) are provided on both sides of a central portion in the longitudinal direction of each bogie frame 3 that forms each of the bogies 2, and the body structure I is supported via the air springs 5.
[0013] The air springs 5 carry the functions of suppressing the propagation of vibration of the bogies 2 and the like, caused by irregular tracks or the like, into the body structure 1, and maintaining a steady floor level of the body structure I in accordance with an increase and decrease in the number of passengers. Note that the bogie 2 shown in FIG. I is an inner frame-type bogie where the underframe 3 is provided inside the wheels that form a wheel set 4 (on the center side of the tracks).
[Embodiment 1] [0014] FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the railway vehicle body structure of Embodiment I as viewed from below, and FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of an A section shown in FIG. 2. FIG. 4 is a B-B cross-section view of the underframe shown in FIG. 3.
Side sills 11 are provided in both end portions of the underframe 10 in the width direction thereof to extend from the side structures 20, and end sills 12 are provided in both end portions of the underframe 10 in the longitudinal direction thereof. A coupler support 13 having a coupler (not shown) for coupling cars when multiple railway cars are coupled to make up a train set are provided in a central portion of each of the end sills 12 in the width direction thereof. Two center sills 14 are provided behind the end sills 12 (near the center of the underframe 10 in the longitudinal direction) to extend in the longitudinal direction of the underframe 10.
[0015] A body bolster 15 is provided in a position a predetermined distance away from the end sill 12 toward the center of the underframe 10 in the longitudinal direction to extend in the width direction (the direction of an arrow 110 in FIG. 3) of the underframe 10. The body bolster 15 is connected to the side sills 11 with bolts 91 (see FIG. 4) at bolt fastening points 56 (see FIG. 3) in both end portions of the body bolster 15 in the longitudinal direction thereof (the direction of the arrow 110 in FIG. 3), and fastened to the two center sills 14 by mechanical fastening means such as bolts 90 (see FIG. 4) at bolt fastening points 57 (see FIG. 3) near the center of the body bolster 15 in the longitudinal direction thereot [0016] The bolt fastening points 56 where the edges of a plate-like member 51 as the body bolster 15 in the longitudinal direction and the side sills 11 are connected are arranged in two lines or one line along the longitudinal direction of the body structure 1. Similarly, a portion in which a central portion of the plate-like member 51 in the longitudinal direction and each of the center sills 14 are fastened is arranged in two lines of bolt fastening points 58 near the end side of the plate-like member 51 in the longitudinal direction and bolt fastening points 57 near the center of the plate-like member 51 in the longitudinal direction.
[0017] A center pin support 17 is provided in a central portion of the lower surface (on the side where the bogie 2 is provided) in the longitudinal direction of the body bolster 15, and two air spring supports 16 are provided along the longitudinal direction (the direction of the arrow 110 in FIG. 3) of the body bolster 15 to lie adjacent to the center pin support 17.
[0018] The floor part of the underframe 10, the side structures 20, and the roof structure 40 are constructed by lining up multiple hollow extruded shapes made of aluminum alloy along the longitudinal direction of the car body and joining adjacent joint edges in the width direction of the hollow extruded shapes. The side sills 11 are hollow extruded shapes made of aluminum alloy along the longitudinal direction of the car body, and provided in both end portions of the underframe 10 in the width direction. The end sills 12 are constructed by joining plate-like members and beam-like members made of aluminum alloy, and provided in both end portions of the underframe 10 in the longitudinal direction.
[0019] The center sills 14 (see FIG. 3) are extruded shapes having an I-shaped cross section and made of aluminum alloy, which are provided along the longitudinal direction of the body structure 1. However, the cross section is not limited to the I-shaped, and it may be any shape such as a U-shaped or an L-shaped. The end sills 12 and the center sills 14 may be made of steel. In this case, the end sills 12 and the center sills 14 are fastened by mechanical fastening means to the floor part of the underframe 10 made of aluminum alloy.
[0020] The end sill 12, the center sill 14, and the body bolster 15 form not only a section for supporting the coupler for coupling cars but also a connecting portion with the bogie 2 for supporting the body structure 1. These sections are required to have high strength because tensile load and compressive load act thereon through the couplers and a tractive force and a braking force act thereon from the bogies 2 in a process in which a train set composed of multiple cars reaches constant speed running after the train set is started and accelerated, and in a process in which the train set comes to a stop after being decelerated from the constant speed running.
[002 1] Since the end sills 12, the center sills 14, and the body bolsters 15 are made up of steel members having high mechanical strength, they are joined by mechanical fastening means, such as bolts or rivets, rather than welding, at joints between the floor member as part of the underframe 10 made from hollow extruded aluminum alloy shapes, the side sills 11, the center sills 14, and the like.
[0022] Referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the structure of the body bolster 15 will be described. The body bolster 15 has the plate--like steel member 51 as a main part, and is provided with plural width-direction steel beams 52 on the side of the plate-like member 51 to face the bogie 2 and plural longitudinal steel beams 54 on the side of the plate-like member 51 to face the body structure 1.
Further, two steel plates 61 having substantiaUy the same width as the center sills 14 along the longitudinal direction of the body structure 1, and substantially the same length as the size of a portion intersecting with the body bolster 15 in the width direction of the body bolster 15 (a direction along the longitudinal direction of the body structure 1) are welded in portions where the plate-like member 51 intersects with (abuts on) the two center sills 14 made of aluminum alloy. The width-direction beams 52, the longitudinal beams 54, and the plates 61 are joined by welding onto the plate-like member 51 to form the body bolster 15 as an integrated manner.
[0023] There is sufficient space between the lower surface of the underframe 10 and the upper surface of plate-like member 51 that forms the body bolster 15, and wire/pipe modules 60 in which multiple wires and pipes are bundled together are provided under the lower surface of the Llnderframe 10 along the longitudinal direction of the car body to penetrate through the body bolster 15 from the end portions toward the center of the body structure I in the longitudinal direction thereof.
Particularly, since the longitudinal beams 54 are welded to the plate-like member 51 along the longitudinal direction of the body structure 1, the wire/pipe modules 60 and non-modularized wires/pipes can be easily arranged in the space between the lower surface side of the undeitrame I and the plate-like member 51 without interfering with the longitudinal beams 54.
[0024] The air spring supports 16 are provided in portions where the air springs 5 (see FIG. 1) of the plate-like member 51 abut thereon, and the center pin support 17 is provided in the central portion of the body bolster 15 in the longitudinal direr..tion as a connecting portion between the bogie 2 and the body structure 1. The surface where the air spring supports 16 of the plate-like member 51 are constructed and the center pin support 17 is provided is finished smoothly to match the shapes of parts provided in the bogie 2 so that the bogie 2 and the body structure can be joined together with high accuracy.
[0025] In the case of the nner frame bogie shown in HG. 1, since the bogie frame 3 is provided on the side of the whe&s near the center between the tracks: an interval LI (see FIG. 4) between the air springs 5 provided on the bogie frame 3 tends to be short. Therefore, the bolt fastening points 57, 58 ahgned in two ines to fasten the plate-like member 51 and the center sHIs 14 together may be ocated within a range of the air spring supports 16 provided in the plate-like member 51 of the body bolster 15.
[0026] At the bolt fastening points 57, 58 to fasten the center sills 14 and the plate-like member 51 together, counterbores having a depth not less than the outer diameter of a tool used to fasten the bolts 90 to the platelike member 51 and not less than the height of the heads of the bolts 90 to prevent the heads of the bolts 90 from interfering with the air spring supports 16. Even when the depth of the counterbore is about the same as the thickness of the plate-like member 51, since the plates 61 are welded in the portions of the plate-like member 51 to overlap the center sills 14 to increase the total plate thickness, the counterhores can be easily formed in the plate-like member 51 without caring about the depth of the counterbores.
[0027] Further, since the width of the plates 61 provided in the portions where the center sifis 14 and the body bolster 15 intersect each other is approximately the same as the width of the center sills 14, and the length of the plates 61 is approximately the same as the width of the body bolster 15, effects capable of suppressing an increase in weight such as when the total thickness of the plate-like member 51 is increased, and enhancing the rigidity of the plate-like member 51 that forms the body bolster 15 and suppressing a loss of the strength are obtained. In addition, since the plates 61 are provided on the plate-like member 51 as the main part of the body bolster 15, an effect capable of easily forming the counterbores in the plate-like member 51 can be obtained.
[0028] According to the above construction, since the counterbores that accommodate the heads of the bolts 90 as mechanical fastening means can be provided in the plate-like member 51 that forms the body bolster 15, interference between the air springs 5 provided on the hogie 2 and the heads of the bolts 90 can be suppressed and the strength required for the underframe 10 can be satisfied.
[0029] Further, according to this construction, since the successive wire/pipe modules 60 can be provided to penetrate through the body bolster 15 from the end portions to the central portion in the longitudinal directon (see FIG. 3, the direction of the arrow 100) of the body structure 1 across the body bolster 15, wires and pipes can be provided in the body structure 1 with a smafler nurriber of steps.
[0030] In Embodiment 1, aRhough the description is made by taking the body structure 1 having inner frame bogies as an example, the present invention is not limited to the structure having inner frame bogies, and the above-mentioned effects can be obtained as long as the boft fastening points 57, 58 are included wfthin the range of the air spring supports 16. Further, HG. 4 shows that the hoRs 90 is composed of bolts and nuts as an example of mechanical fastening means, but plateike screw sets may be provided as substitute for the nuts, or parts having thread grooves may be embedded in the center sUls 14. The structure with substitutes for the nuts can also be applied to bofts 90, 92 in Embodiment 2 to be described below, [Embodiment 2] [0031] Referring to FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, Embodiment 2 wifl be described. A description concerning the same structures as those described in Embodiment I wifl be omitted, and structures and functions different from those in Embodiment 1 wiH be mainly described.
[0032] HG. 5 s a perspective view of an underframe that forms a rail vehicle body structure in Embodiment 2 as viewed from below, and FIG. 6 is a CC cross-section view of FIG. 5.
[0033] Unlike in Embodiment 1, only the bolt fastening points 58 of the bolt fastening points 57, 58 aligned in two lines to fasten the plate-like member 51 and the center sills 14 may be included within the range of the air spring supports 16 provided under the plate-like member 51 of the body bolster 15 due to the design factors of the body structure 1 such as the positional relationship between the center sills 14 and the wirelpipe modules 60, or the design factors of the bogie 2 such as the fact that the interval between the air springs 5 provided on the bogie frame 3 becomes L2.
[0034] In this case, the thickness of the plate-like member 51 is set to a thickness capable of forming the counterbores that accommodate the heads of the bolts 90 (see FIG. 4) provided at bolt fastening points 58, and the number of bolts 92 provided at bolt fastening points 57 where no counterbores are provided is set larger than the number of bolts 90 in that portion.
Alternatively, the size of the bolts 90 provided at the bolt fastening points 58 is set to M16 and the size of the bolts 92 provided at the bolt fastening points 57 is set to M22. In the case of the bolt size Ml 6, since the head of the bolt is smaller than that of M22, the depth of a counterbore can be reduced, and this can suppress an increase in the thickness (weight) of the plate-like member 51. -.9-
[0035] According to this construction, the strength required for the underframe 10 can be satisfied without applying, to the plate-like member 51 at intersections (in overlapping portions) between the plate-like member 51 and the center sifis 14, plates (corresponding to the plates 61 in Embodiment 1) having substantiafly the same width as the width of the center sifis 14.
[0036] According to the above-mentioned construction, since the body bolster 15 and the center sills 14 can be tightly fastened while suppressing an increase in the weight of the body bolster 15, the strength required for the underframe 10 can be satisfied.
[0037] Further, interference between the air springs 5 provided on the bogie 2 and the heads of the bolts 90 can be suppressed.
[0038] In addition, according to this construction, since the successive wire/pipe modules 60 can be provided to peneLrate through ihe body bolster 15 Irom the end portions to the central portion in the longitudinal direction (see HG. 3, the direction of the arrow 100) of the body structure I across the body bolster 15, wires and pipes can be provided in the body structure I with a smaUer number of steps.
