Abstract

Doubledeck coach with entry and exit doors (2) on both sides at both ends, an upper and a lower passenger compartment, with doors to the passenger compartments and wagon-intercommunicating doors (3) at both ends of the coach. The access to the passenger compartments in the lower deck and upper deck (5,(4)) is provided from the entry or exit vestibule (9) through a single access door (6) which is arranged between the entry or exit vestibule (9) and an intermediate floor (10). From the intermediate floor (10), the upper and lower passenger compartments can be reached via a descending stair (8) or an ascending stair (7). The intermediate floor (10) has the function of providing safety and comfort. The safety feature is that the access door is not positioned directly in front of or behind a staircase and the comfort feature is that the ascent from the lower deck (5) to the upper deck is interrupted with this intermediate floor (10). The short descending stair (8) to the passenger compartment in the lower deck (5) is replaced in one design variant with an arcuate, wheelchair-compatible ramp. In an "economy" design, a multi-functional staircase column is provided between the stairs. <IMAGE>

TWO-STAGE PASSENGER CAR

Description

Dual-storey passenger car with double entry doors at both ends, with entrance and exit doors, upper and lower passenger compartments, doors to the passenger compartment and passageways at the front of the carriageway. Typically, trains are arranged in such a way that spaces and spaces for passengers are created. For double-deck passenger carriages, an additional problem arises in the form of resolving internal height differences and in the method of separating passenger spaces and lobby spaces.

U.S. Patent Document US-2, 8ll, 932 illustrates and describes a two-tier passenger car in various designs. As a general feature, it is worth mentioning the higher transitional corridor. For the combination with the normal carriage, a special design is foreseen, which on the one hand provides for a high transition corridor and on the other hand height adjustments by means of stairs to the normal height. All different spaces (passenger-, special- and lobby) are interconnected by aisles and stairs and separated by a number of revolving doors.

Large numbers and different types of doors are a bit impractical and too demanding. A revolving door needs extra space for its functionality and can be hampered in a given concept. A certain chance of an accident lies directly in front of and behind the steps of the intended door. The height of the passage in the carriage at abnormal height presupposes combinations of versions for adjustment with the normal one-storey carriage.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a two-tier passenger car that can be combined directly in a single embodiment as a two-tier as well as a normal one-tier car. This allows a small number of doors, which do not require a lot of space, to separate the entrance spaces from the passenger compartments. At the same time, they offer maximum security for passengers when installing and designing stairs and doors.

- 2 This task is solved by the present invention.

The advantages achieved by the invention are mainly that they address, with a single embodiment, all passenger safety requirements for combinations of existing carriages. Furthermore, there is the possibility of increasing usable space by means of small internal remodeling. In doing so, we think it would allow access to the lower part with the liquid seats. With only two interior doors provided in the simplest form, interior arrangements are feasible at low cost while increasing space utilization.

The drawings give an example example and show sketch 1 full side view, exterior, sketch 2 exterior front view, sketch 3 concept of interior arrangement and equipment of the upper floor sketch 4 concept of interior arrangement and equipment of the lower floor including entrance and exit vestibules and sketch 5 interior arrangements and equipment of the lower floor of econom - implementation (2nd class).

Figure 1 shows the invented double-deck passenger car 1 from the outside. Above the two swivel pedestals, entry and exit doors are installed 2. Two-level passenger carriage are identified with two types of window mounted above each other. Engine rooms 17 for the installation of air conditioners are provided in the front parts of the roof floors. The interior spatial distribution of the lower and upper floors, the entrance and exit vestibules and the passage corridors are shown dashed.

- 3 Figure 2 shows the front view of the front of the train.

Gateway 3 is marked with a gate. 3-1. indicates bellows at passages, 3.2. bumper and 3-3 wagon clutch.

Figure 3 shows the concept and spatial division of the upper floor 4. The upper floor 4 or passenger compartment is divided in the shown embodiment into a smoking room and a non-smoking area and a climate-separated room with a swing door 13. S 7 are marked on both ends of the upper floor in the form arch of the staircase.

Figure 4 shows the concept and the spatial distribution of the lower floor 5 in the passenger compartment area. The lower floor 5 or passenger compartment is divided in the embodiment shown into a smoking room and a non-smoking area, and is separated by a sliding door 12. With 8, the stairs down are located at both ends of the lower floor 5. Stairs up 7 and down stairs 8 lead from each. the ends of the intermediate floor 10 into the passenger compartments in the upper floor 4 and the lower floor 5. At each end of the car, one entrance and exit space 9 is located behind the front and exit doors 2, which is spatially separated by access doors 6. These doors are on the same the entrance and exit vestibules of the intermediate floor of 10 passenger spaces are separated by height. From the entrance and exit rooms 9, after the passage 11, front doors located at the end or the beginning of the car are reached 3- In the corner rooms of the carriageway end, cabinets 14 for electrical appliances for various purposes in the car are installed in the corner spaces of the carriageway in the area of passages 11. These cabinets opposite to the left side of the end of the wagon are the positioned climate control unit 16 and to the right of the end of the wagon there is a toilet 15.

Figure 5 shows an abbreviated form of the so-called econom implementation. If the chairs are more densely positioned, then the lower floor has about the same number of seats as in Figure 4. An elliptical staircase standing vertically in the middle of the carriage and between stairs down 8 and up stairs is seen as a new detectable sign. 18 consists,

- 4 geometrically, from two circular sections, which are connected on flat surfaces. Both conical edges are appropriately rounded. The stepping pole 18 extends, which is not shown in FIG. 5, over the entire height of the wagon, ie from the lowest floor to the upper ceiling.

The concept of the invention is therefore that the two passenger compartments in the lower floor 5 and the upper storey can be separated at the ends by one accessible door 6 from the outside climatic environments, or access to both passenger compartments, below and above, through this access door 6. The intermediate floor 10 behind the sliding door 6 has both a safety function and a comfort effect. The safety feature is that it is not the start of the stairs immediately behind the sliding door 6, which can lead to dangerous accidents (tripping ...). The comfort function is that when climbing from the lower level 5 to the upper floor 4, the intermediate platform 10 has several steps in a horizontal position. This is appropriate and desirable especially for older people. It is possible to cycle between the upper and lower floors and vice versa without opening the air-conditioned room. It is also not necessary to go through the minimally air-conditioned space at the entrance and exit of the 9th train.

The arched design shown is intended to refer to the layout of the seats and to the division of separate sections for smokers and non-smokers, primarily as a first-class or luxury design. In the figure 5 of the econom version, the seating arrangement is a little more tight and the passenger compartment shown in the lower floor 5 is completely designated as a non-smoking section. Due to tegp, the doors between sections 12 fall off. The stepped pillar 18 fulfills many functions. It is used as a guide and stair carrier in the middle of the carriage, as a duct for air conditioning and other installations for supplying air and appliances of all kinds, as an interior architectural element and as a reinforcement and reinforcement of the wagon chamber.

- 5 With regard to the small height difference between the entry / exit space 9 and the floor height in the lower floor, a minor change is made to the replacement of the stairs down 8 with a ramp (ramp), which is not shown here, mainly in the form of an arc from the entrance and exit compartments 9 to the lower passenger compartment in the lower floor 5. This gives you, with the additional space availability in the passenger compartment in the lower floor 5, a non-problematic use for wheelchairs. Known technical adjustments or accessories in the area of entry or exit doors 2 complement the measures for easy transportation of persons with disabilities.

As a front door 6, sliding doors are provided with rigid door leaflets that open one or two sides. If necessary, the width of the opening is extremely wide and there is a non-visible side sliding door which opens centrally. In this case, when the back door is opened, the sliding door elements are diverted to the side walls of the wagon (wagon) and sliding in the wagon walls.
