  In a railway vehicle provided with a door that opens and closes an entrance on the outer surface of a vehicle body, a technique has been proposed for improving the visibility of the position of the entrance to passengers. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a railway vehicle provided with a light unit that emits white light directed upward to a seal at an entrance.

JP 2005-145343 A

  By the way, in the station etc. which were built in the place where the curvature of a track | line is large, a big clearance gap may arise between the floor surface of the platform of a station, and the lower end of the entrance. In addition, at a station or the like built in a rural area, a large level difference may occur between the floor surface of the station platform and the lower end of the entrance. However, with the above technology, white light in the light section provided in the hull is always seen by passengers regardless of gaps and steps, and white light in the light section is mainly directed upward. . Therefore, although the visibility of the position of the entrance improves, the effect of prompting the passenger to get on the rail vehicle alerting the presence or absence of the gap or step, the floor surface of the station platform such as the gap or step, and the lower end of the entrance There is room for improvement as to the effect of having the passenger trying to get on the railway vehicle understand the positional relationship with the above.

  Therefore, the present invention makes it easier for a passenger who tries to get on the railway vehicle to alert the user about the presence or absence of a gap or a step between the floor surface of the station platform and the lower end of the door when opening the doorway. An object of the present invention is to provide a railcar that makes it easier for a passenger who tries to get on the railcar to know the positional relationship between the floor surface and the lower end of the entrance.

  The present invention is a railway vehicle provided with a door for opening and closing an entrance of an outer surface of a vehicle body, the railway having an outer surface light portion lit or blinked at the opening and closing of the entrance by the door below the entrance at the outer surface. It is a vehicle.

  According to this configuration, in the railway vehicle provided with the door for opening and closing the entrance of the vehicle body, the outside surface light portion below the entrance and exit in the outside surface lights up or blinks when opening and closing the entrance by the door. Because the light is emitted to the side of the vehicle body, there is a gap or step between the floor of the station platform and the lower end of the entrance when opening and closing the entrance as compared with the case where light is emitted upward from the hull. It is easier for the passenger who is going to get on the railway vehicle to call attention, and it is easier for the passenger who is going to get on the railway vehicle to understand the positional relationship between the floor surface of the platform of the station and the lower end of the entrance.

  In addition, it is preferable that the door further includes a door light unit that lights or blinks in synchronization with lighting or blinking of the outer surface light unit when the door is opened and closed.

  According to this configuration, since the door light portion of the door lights or blinks in synchronization with the lighting or blinking of the outer surface light portion when the door is opened or closed by the door, the railway vehicle warns that the door is opened or closed by the door. When opening and closing the entrance by the door, there is a gap or step between the floor of the station platform and the lower end of the entrance, and the floor and entrance of the station platform. This makes it easier for the passengers to be alerted about the positional relationship with the lower end.

  In addition, it is preferable that the outside surface light portion start to light or blink prior to the start of the opening / closing operation of the doorway by the door.

  According to this configuration, the outside surface light unit lights up or blinks prior to the start of the opening / closing operation of the entrance by the door, so the passenger who tries to get on the railway vehicle has the opening / closing operation of the entrance by the door. It can be predicted that it will be started.

  According to the railcar of the present invention, when opening and closing the entrance, it is easy for the passenger who is going to get on the railcar to be alerted about the presence of a gap or a step between the floor surface of the platform of the station and the lower end of the entrance. It is easier for passengers trying to get on the railway vehicle to understand the positional relationship between the floor surface of the platform of the station and the lower end of the entrance.

It is a longitudinal cross-sectional view of the side surface light part of the rail vehicle of FIG. It is a longitudinal cross-sectional view of upper end vicinity of the door light part of the rail vehicle of FIG. It is a side view which shows the state in front of open | release of the entrance of the railway vehicle of FIG. It is a side view which shows the state in the middle of opening and closing of the entrance of the railway vehicle of FIG. It is a side view which shows the state immediately after opening of the entrance of the railway vehicle of FIG. 1, and immediately before closing. It is a side view which shows the state by which the entrance of the railway vehicle of FIG. 1 was open | released. It is a side view showing the state where the entrance of the rail car of the embodiment in the case where there is almost no level difference between the floor surface of the platform of the station and the lower end of the entrance.

  Hereinafter, a railcar according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. As shown in FIG. 1, the railcar 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention is provided with a door 4 for opening and closing the entrance 3 of the outer side surface 2 of the vehicle body. The entrance 3 and the door 4 can apply the thing of the existing rail vehicle. The door 4 is a double-opening and single-opening door that opens and closes automatically, and may be any of a sliding door, a plug door, and a sliding door. In the present embodiment, the door 4 is a double door.

  The railcar 1 is provided with an outside surface light portion 5 below the entrance 3 at the outside surface 2, which lights up or flashes when the entrance 3 is opened and closed by the door 4. The outer surface light portion 5 is disposed between immediately below the entrance 3 and the floor surface of the platform 100 of the station, and in the present embodiment, is disposed directly below the entrance 3 along the lower edge of the entrance 3. The outside surface light unit 5 mainly emits light to the side of the vehicle body of the railway vehicle 1. FIG. 1 shows the case where there is a large step between the floor of the platform 100 of the station and the lower end of the entrance 3, so the outside surface light portion 5 is entirely covered by the railway vehicle 1 without being hidden by the platform 100. It is visible to the passenger who tries.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the entrance 3 has a floor surface 32 inside the railway vehicle 1 and a hull 33 outside the railway vehicle 1 with the rail 31 for sliding the door 4 interposed therebetween. The hull 33 is attached so as to cover the side beam 34 and the side entrance / exit frame 35. The hull 33 includes a step portion 36 outside the railcar 1 of the door 4. The outer surface light portion 5 directly below the hull 33 of the inlet 3 in the outer surface 2 has a rectangular resin translucent resin casing 51 whose longitudinal direction extends in the horizontal direction along the lower edge of the inlet 3 . The inside of the housing 51 includes a substrate 52 whose surface is parallel in the vertical direction, and a light source 53 such as a light emitting diode (LED) arranged in a line in the horizontal direction on the substrate 52. The light emitted from the light source 53 is transmitted through the translucent housing 51 and emitted to the side of the vehicle body. In addition, the light source 53 emits light of different colors such as red, blue, and green in accordance with the input control signal.

  The light source 53 is lighted or blinked in conjunction with a control signal of the opening / closing operation of the entrance 3 by the door 4 of the drive device (door engine) of the door 4. The door 4 starts the opening and closing operation of the entrance 3 a predetermined time after the control signal of the opening and closing operation of the entrance 3 by the door 4 is input. Therefore, the outside surface light unit 5 starts to light or blink prior to the start of the opening / closing operation of the door 3 by the door 4.

  The lighting or blinking of the outer surface light unit 5 informs the passenger who is going to get on the rail car 1 that it is possible to get on the rail car 1 before the opening operation of the entrance 3 by the door 4 starts. It makes sense. Therefore, before the start of the opening operation of the doorway 3 by the door 4, the outside surface light portion 5 lights or blinks with, for example, blue or green light. On the other hand, lighting or blinking of the outer surface light portion 5 warns the passenger who is about to get on the rail vehicle 1 that the door 3 is closing the entrance 3 before the start of the closing operation of the door 4 It has a meaning to prompt. Therefore, before the start of the closing operation of the entrance 3 by the door 4, the outer surface light portion 5 is lit or blinks with, for example, red light.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the railcar 1 further includes a door light portion 6 on the door 4 that lights or blinks in synchronization with the lighting or blinking of the outer surface light portion 5 when the door 4 opens and closes the entrance 3. The door light portion 6 is disposed along the periphery of a portion that initially creates a gap in the entrance 3 of the outer surface 2 in the opening operation of the sliding door, the plug door, and the sliding door, for example, for alerting. . In the present embodiment, the door light portion 6 is disposed along the side edges of the seams of both the left and right doors of the double-opening door. The door light unit 6 mainly emits light to the side of the vehicle body of the railway vehicle 1.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the door light portion 6 has a rectangular parallelepiped translucent resin casing 61 whose longitudinal direction extends in the vertical direction. The inside of the housing 61 includes a substrate 62 whose surface is parallel in the vertical direction, and a light source 63 such as a light emitting diode arranged on the substrate 62 in a line in the vertical direction. The light emitted from the light source 63 passes through the translucent casing 61 and is emitted to the side of the vehicle body. In addition, the light source 63 emits light of different colors such as red, blue, and green in accordance with the input control signal.

  The light source 63 is lighted or blinked in conjunction with a control signal of the opening / closing operation of the entrance 3 by the door 4 of the drive device of the door 4. Since the outside surface light unit 5 is also lighted or blinked in conjunction with the control signal of the opening / closing operation of the entrance 3 by the door 4, the door light unit 6 is lighted or blinked in synchronization with the lighting or blinking of the outside surface light unit 5 The lighting or blinking is started prior to the start of the opening / closing operation of the door 3 by the door 4. Further, as with the outside surface light portion 5, before the start of the opening operation of the doorway 3 by the door 4, the doorlight portion 6 lights or blinks with blue or green light, for example. Before the start of the closing operation, the door light unit 6 lights or blinks, for example, with red light.

  Hereinafter, the operation | movement at the time of opening and closing of the entrance / exit 3 by the door 4 of the rail vehicle 1 of this embodiment is demonstrated. As shown in FIG. 1, the railway vehicle 1 enters the platform 100 of the station and stops. As shown in FIG. 8, when there is almost no difference in level between the floor surface of the platform 100 of the station and the lower end of the entrance 3 and no warning about the difference is required, the outside surface light portion 5 is hidden by the platform 100 , It is not visually recognized by the passenger who tries to get on the railway vehicle 1. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 1, when there is a large level difference between the floor surface of platform 100 of the station and the lower end of entrance 3 and the alert about the level difference is necessary, outside surface light portion 5 is platform 100. The lighting and flickering of the outside surface light portion 5 is visually recognized by the passenger who tries to get on the railway vehicle 1 without being hidden by the vehicle.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the outer surface light unit 5 and the door light unit 6 operate to open the door 3 by the door 4 in conjunction with a control signal for opening the door 3 by the door 4 of the drive device of the door 4. For example, it starts lighting or blinking with blue light or green light prior to the start of. As shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, the outside surface light portion 5 and the door light portion 6 are continuously lighted or blinked also during the opening operation of the doorway 3 by the door 4. As shown in FIG. 7, when the opening operation of the doorway 3 by the door 4 is completed, the outside surface light portion 5 and the door light portion 6 are turned off.

  Next, when the time when the rail vehicle 1 leaves the platform 100 at the station approaches, as shown in FIG. 6, the outside surface is interlocked with the control signal for closing the entrance 3 by the door 4 of the drive device of the door 4. The light unit 5 and the door light unit 6 start lighting or blinking with, for example, red light prior to the start of the closing operation of the door 3 by the door 4. As shown in FIGS. 5 and 4, also during the closing operation of the doorway 3 by the door 4, the outside surface light portion 5 and the door light portion 6 are continuously lit or blinked. As shown in FIG. 1, when the closing operation of the doorway 3 by the door 4 is completed, the outside surface light portion 5 and the door light portion 6 are turned off.

  According to the present embodiment, in the railway vehicle 1 provided with the door 4 for opening and closing the entrance 3 of the vehicle body, the outside surface light portion 5 below the entrance 3 on the outside surface 2 is lighted or opened when the entrance 3 is opened and closed by the door 4 Since it flashes and the light of the outer surface light part 5 is emitted to the side of the vehicle body, the floor surface of the platform 100 of the station and the entrance 3 when opening and closing the entrance 3 compared with the case where the light is emitted upward from the hull. It is easy to urge attention by passengers trying to get on the railway vehicle 1 about the presence or absence of gaps or steps with the lower edge of the railway vehicle, and the positional relationship between the floor surface of the platform 100 of the station and the lower edge of the entrance 3 is It is easier for passengers to get in.

  That is, in the configuration in which light is emitted upward from the hull, the white light of the light portion provided in the hull looks completely the same as when there are gaps or steps even if there are no gaps or steps for the passenger. As a result, although the visibility of the position of the entrance is improved, the effect of prompting the passenger to warn of a gap or a step is relatively small.

  On the other hand, in the present embodiment, when there is no gap or step between the floor surface of the platform 100 of the station and the lower end of the entrance 3, the outside surface light portion 5 is hidden by the platform 100. It is not necessary to show the lighting or blinking of the outside surface light portion 5 which is unnecessary for the passenger. In addition, when there is a gap or a step between the floor surface of platform 100 of the station and the lower end of entrance 3, outside surface light unit 5 is not hidden by platform 100, so it is necessary for passengers trying to get on railway vehicle 1 It is possible to show lighting or blinking of the outer side surface light unit 5. Therefore, it is possible to give the passenger a necessary alerting etc. only when necessary, and the effect of prompting the passenger to alert about a gap or a step is great. Furthermore, it is easier for the passengers to be alerted by the passengers about the presence or absence of a gap or a step by the side light from the outer surface light portion 5 rather than the light from the upper side of the hull and the floor surface of the platform 100 of the station A passenger who tries to get on the railway vehicle can easily grasp the positional relationship with the lower end of the entrance 3.

  Further, according to the present embodiment, when the door 3 is opened and closed by the door 4, the door light 6 of the door 4 is lighted or blinked in synchronization with the lighting or blinking of the outer surface light unit 5. Since it is easier for passengers who want to get on the railway vehicle 1 to be careful about opening and closing, when the door 3 opens and closes the entrance 3, a gap or a step between the floor surface of the station platform and the lower end of the entrance It is easy for the passengers to be more alerted by the presence or absence, and the positional relationship between the floor surface of the platform 100 of the station and the lower end of the entrance 3.

  Further, according to the present embodiment, the outside surface light unit 5 starts the lighting or blinking prior to the start of the opening / closing operation of the doorway 3 by the door 4, so that the door to the passenger who tries to get on the railway vehicle 1 It can be predicted that the opening and closing operation of the entrance 3 by 4 can be started.

  As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described, this invention is implemented in various forms, without being limited to the said embodiment. For example, aspects such as the shapes of the outer surface light portion 5 and the door light portion 6, the timing of light emission, the color, and the manner of blinking can be variously changed.
