DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a hood device for railway vehicles.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there has been a connecting hood for a railway vehicle in which a hood storage room is provided at the head of the vehicle, and the connecting hood is stored in the hood storage room when the connecting hood is not used.

In such a connecting hood, when the connecting hood is extended and the open end is connected to the oncoming vehicle, and the vehicle is greatly displaced, the fixed side frame of the connecting hood is located at the back of the hood storage room. Therefore, there is a problem in that the intermediate portion of the connecting hood contacts and interferes with the inner wall surface at the front end of the hood storage room.

[0004] Therefore, a middle frame is interposed in the middle of the connecting hood,
There is one in which the above problem is solved by moving the middle frame linearly back and forth and moving the front hood cloth in the middle frame and the release side frame in the left-right direction.

However, the operation of connecting and releasing the connecting hood having the middle frame is conventionally performed manually by an operator. Further, as means for automating the connection and release of the connecting hood, for example, as shown in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. H4-100770, a toggle joint or the like is provided on the wife's face located outside the ceiling side of the connecting hood. With an extension device,
In some cases, the connecting hood expands and contracts.

Further, as shown in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 4-159172, a connecting hood is formed by providing a cylindrical hood fold at the tip of a movable plate, and this is moved back and forth by an actuator such as a hydraulic pressure. Some are stored in a hood storage room formed on the wife's face when the vehicle is released, and the opposite folds are pressed against each other when connected.

[0007]

In the conventional method of manually connecting and releasing the outer frame and the middle frame of the connecting hood as described above, the work efficiency is poor, it takes time, and the stop time during commercial operation is reduced. There is a problem that hinders the express delivery.

In Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Hei 4-100770, when the distance between opposing wives of a vehicle to be connected is large, the width of the expansion and contraction device (the width in the direction perpendicular to the direction of the through road) is increased. ) The dimensions must be increased.
For this reason, even if it is a model that stores the connected hood in the hood storage room, even if you try to automate by using this telescopic device,
It is difficult to install in a hood storage room with a limited width and cannot be adopted.

[0009] Further, in the above-mentioned Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 4-159172, although the retractable self-connecting hood is used, when the distance between the opposing wives is wide, the hood fold is brought into contact with the oncoming vehicle. To do so, the advance distance of the actuator becomes extremely long. However, since this is not practical, it is necessary to shorten the protruding length of the hood fold from the wife's face and press the folds of the oncoming vehicles with each other. Therefore, when the vehicle is greatly displaced, a gap is formed between the pressing surfaces of the two folds, and there is a problem that intrusion of wind and rain or anxiety for a passenger is caused.

Therefore, according to the present invention, in the type in which the connecting hood is housed in a hood storage room, and the connecting hood is provided with a middle frame and has a hood cloth portion before and after the connecting hood, the connection and release of the above-mentioned problems are solved. It is another object of the present invention to provide a device that can be automated without any change, and a device that automatically displaces a crossover plate between a use form and a storage form with connection and release of a connecting hood.
