Definitions

  • the inventive subject matter relates to the field of sliding doors for transport vehicles, such as trains, metros, trams, trolley buses, tourist buses, or other buses.
  • One aspect of the inventive subject matter includes a guidance assembly that guides plugging movement of doors on the vehicle.
  • the inventive subject matter also includes a transport vehicle door including such a guidance assembly, a process of assembling the guidance assembly, as well as a transport vehicle equipped with at least one such guidance assembly.
  • Some vehicles include plugging doors that open and close to allow and prevent entry and exit from the vehicle.
  • plugging doors mounted on passenger trains need guidance assemblies to perform plugging movement of the doors.
  • the tops of the doors can be guided by an operator while the bottom is either guided by coordinating bars or swinging arms associated with a cam.
  • the swinging arms have a small footprint and are lighter than the bars, however, the arms usually do not withstand heavy loads.
  • the current swinging arms are made of one roller that follows a door or roller track and guides the door during the plugging phase of the movement, and one or two rollers that roll on a lower leaf transom and guide the leaf during the sliding phase of the movement.
  • a plugging roller rolls against the door or roller track, which forces the swinging arm to rotate and the leaf to shift from the vehicle body.
  • the movement of the bottom of the leaf away from the car body is determined by the geometry of the door or roller track.
  • the swinging arms may not be able to withstand high loads due to the orientation of the contact surface between the door or roller track and the plugging roller.
  • the heaviest loads during the life of a vehicle may be perpendicular to the leaves in the Y direction. This causes heavy contact forces between the plugging roller and the door or roller track when the door is closed.
  • This contact creates a reaction force perpendicular to the door or roller track which is composed of a Y-axis component and an X-axis component.
  • the X- component created by this contact is transmitted through the leaf and has to be counterbalanced by the door mechanism at the top. As the lever arm between the door operator and the bottom of the leaf amplifies this effort, however, it quickly becomes unsustainable for the door operator.
  • the coordinating bars aim to synchronize the guiding systems at the top and at the bottom of the leaves through a column.
  • the top arm moves due to a corresponding roller fitted inside a groove that is mounted on the mobile part of door operator. As the groove moves along the Y direction, the top arm rotates which in turn rotates the lower arm.
  • a first known solution is to provide a coordination bar, extending vertically.
  • the latter mechanically connects the drive medium, placed at the top end, and a lower arm capable of sliding in relation to the door.
  • One example, as an illustrated document, is in the European patent application 0 6 643 190 on behalf of BODE.
  • the coordination bar, mentioned above, is particularly visible on Figure 4 of this document where it is assigned from reference 5.
  • this coordination bar solution has some drawbacks, as the coordination bar is often heavy and causes significant congestion. Moreover, this mechanical set tends to generate relatively high stresses on the drive medium, since the stress applied to the lower arm is transmitted to this device via the coordination bar.
  • a known alternative solution which allows to get rid of this heavy coordination bar, is to provide a guidance device that ensures both guidance, which is only provided at the end of the door.
  • This guidance device includes a mounting deck on the body, as well as a guide and arm, which is articulated on this deck around a vertical axis.
  • a roller In the closed configuration, a roller is received at one end of a cam-shaped path, in the vicinity of the outer face of the guidance device. Then, when the means of driving the guidance device is operated, this roller rolls along the walls of the cam shaped path. This action of the roller tends to spread the guidance device sideways, which can interfere with the plugging movement of the roller.
  • the articulated arm rotates in relation to a mounting plate. Then, once the roller has come out of the cam path, the guidance device moves longitudinally in the vicinity of the outer wall of the vehicle.
  • plugging roller as intended in the inventive subject matter, is likely to generate a driving force on the door that contributes to the latter's plugging. Again expressed otherwise, in the absence of such a roller, the correct plugging of the door is not assured.
  • one objective of the inventive subject matter is to remedy, at least in part, the disadvantages of earlier art mentioned above.
  • Another objective of the inventive subject matter is to propose a system including a door and its guidance assembly, whose mechanical resistance is significantly improved compared to previous art.
  • Another objective of the inventive subject matter is to propose such a system, whose structure has a simplicity similar to that of the solutions of previous art.
  • Another objective of the inventive subject matter is to propose such a system, which allows to reliably fulfill the aforementioned functions.
  • a package comprising at least one door (1, G) and a guidance assembly (5, 5') for the sliding a door (201) of a transport vehicle (200), including train, tram, metro, bus or trolleybus.
  • the door is mobile between a closed position, in which the door obstructs a passage opening (202) in the vehicle's opening, as well as an open position in which the door releases the opening of passage into the vehicle.
  • the door is able to be driven by a driving means (110, 110') located at the first end of the passage opening, depending on the vertical direction, especially its upper end.
  • the driving means (110, 110’) can be one or more motors in one embodiment.
  • the guidance is provided at the opposite end of the vehicle opening, in particular its lower end, this guidance assembly including means of assembly (50, 52) (e.g., a notched plate) on the vehicle's body, as well as a guidance arm (6).
  • This guidance arm also can be referred to as a swinging arm, and is articulated on the notched plate (50, 52).
  • the swinging arm includes a plugging roller axle (70) in a plugging roller (7) as well as a sliding roller (80) that rotates around a sliding roller axle (8).
  • the roller axle (70) and the sliding roller (80) are mounted to swivel in relation to the swinging arm around mutually parallel axes (e.g., the roller axles).
  • the door includes a longitudinal sliding path (4) defined by a track formed by opposing leaves (14, 16) and that cooperates with the sliding roller of the guidance assembly, as well as a cam track (3) cooperating with the plugging roller axle of the guidance assembly.
  • the cam track (3) can be referred to as a cam track or a cam path as the path (3) extends into and at least partially through the cam (2).
  • the cam track (3) presents such a profile that, when the roller axle (70) is received in this cam track (3), in the closed position of the door, an external effort (FI) exerted on the door, significantly according to a cross- sectional direction (Yl) of the door, induced an effort (F70), exerted by the roller axle on the walls of the cam track, which is only oriented substantially according to this same cross direction of the door, thus allowing the contact, located between the roller axle and the cam track, to transmit substantially no longitudinal effort to the drive mechanism or means.
  • FI external effort
  • Yl cross- sectional direction
  • the cam track (3) has an elongated plugging slot (30), intended to receive the plugging roller in the closed position of the door, which extends substantially parallel to the longitudinal direction (XI) of the door.
  • the elongated plugging slot (30) is bordered by outer walls (31) and interior walls (32), facing respectively towards the inner and outer sides of the guidance assembly, these walls extending parallel to the main plane of the guidance assembly.
  • the useful length (L32) of the inner wall (32) of the plugging slot (30) can be approximately between 1 and 5 millimeters. [030] - this plugging slot (30) is extended by a plugging entry slot (35) that leads to the inside of the guidance assembly.
  • the plugging entry slot can extend generally according to the cross direction (Yl) of the guidance assembly (1).
  • the plugging entry slot (35) can have an overall shape of the letter S.
  • the guidance assembly also can include a fork yoke (9), which along with the swinging or guidance arm, can be pierced with holes (25, 62), placed in front of each other, these through holes being intended for the passage of a pin to make it easier to position the swinging arm and cam when mounting the guidance assembly.
  • a fork yoke (9) which along with the swinging or guidance arm, can be pierced with holes (25, 62), placed in front of each other, these through holes being intended for the passage of a pin to make it easier to position the swinging arm and cam when mounting the guidance assembly.
  • this set also includes a drive mechanism (110, 110') provided at the first end of this door, especially the upper end of the door, such as a motor.
  • the guidance assembly can be mechanically dissociated from the door or vehicle.
  • the inventive subject matter also aims for a door for transport vehicles, including the train, tram, metro, bus or trolleybus type, this door being equipped with a door (1, G) and guidance assembly (5, 5') above, as well as a means of driving (110, 110') provided at the first end of this door, in particular its upper end, the guidance assembly belonging to the whole audit being provided at the opposite end of this door, especially the lower end of the door.
  • the guidance assembly can be mechanically dissociated or separate from the drive mechanism.
  • the inventive subject matter also includes a method to assemble a door, equipped with a set in which the door and the swinging arm are pierced with orifices (25, 62), placed in front of each other. These orifices or through holes are traverse and shaped for the passage of a pin, making it easier to position the relative positioning of the swinging arm and the door when mounting the assembly to the door.
  • the process in which the guidance assembly is placed in a final position, then in which a temporary pin is inserted in the orifices in the door and the swinging arm of the guidance assembly to proceed with the precise attachment of these different elements, and finally in which the pin is removed to free the mobility of the swinging arm.
  • inventive subject matter can be used in connection with a transport vehicle, especially the type of train, tram, metro, bus or trolley bus, this transport vehicle being equipped with at least one door.
  • the inventive subject matter provides that this contact force is exercised substantially according to the cross-cutting axis of the door.
  • the contact between the roller and the cam track does not transmit significantly any longitudinal effort that makes it more difficult to open or close the door.
  • the latter undergoes no longitudinal effort, or very little longitudinal effort in comparison to cross-cutting efforts, because of the aforementioned contact.
  • This reduces the overall load applied to the various components of the door, consistent with the inventive subject matter.

  • this resulting force is oriented obliquely, i.e. the force can have a significant component along the longitudinal axis X101. This helps to apply longitudinal forces to the bottom of the guidance assembly, which, due to the rigidity of the guidance assembly, are transmitted transversely through the top of the guidance assembly.
  • the resulting F70 force generated in accordance with at least one embodiment of the inventive subject matter is oriented in a significantly cross-sectional manner due at least in part to the geometry of the elongated plugging slot 30 of the cam track 3, which imposes the cross direction on contact between the plugging roller and an inner wall 32 (shown in Figure 6) of the elongated plugging slot 30.
  • this F70 force has a main component according to the cross-axis, while the potential component on the longitudinal axis is very small compared to the transverse component of the force. Therefore, this allows the door to withstand higher cross-cutting external efforts than in previous art.

These Figures show that the resilient body 92 has two stable positions, when the guidance arm 6 is unfolded ( Figure 18) and when the guidance arm 6 is folded ( Figure 19). The elastic action of the resilient body, in the unfolded position of the guidance arm, prevents untimely movement of this guidance arm (e.g., when the door is closed). Additionally, this resilient body ensures that the guidance arm rotates completely toward the folded position, especially if the vehicle tilts or if an external force is applied to the guidance assembly.
  • the inventive subject matter is not limited to the examples described and represented above.

  • the swinging arms of the inventive guidance assemblies described herein can withstand higher loads than the guiding arms described previously. This is achieved at least in part by making the surfaces of the cam (the surfaces in the plugging slot that engage the plugging roller coupled with the arm) parallel to the leaves on opposite sides of the door or roller track in the closed position. This prevents or reduces the reaction forces along the axis XI (along the direction in which the door or roller track is elongated) which discharges the door operator and allows the door to withstand higher loads than the versions with regular swinging arms.
  • the cam is sized to provide a clearance gap between the sliding roller and the surface of the cam that faces the sliding roller to ensure that the sliding roller does not encounter the end of the door or roller track when the leaf or the vehicle body moves.
  • the plugging roller of the guidance arm is disposed in the elongated plugging slot, and may be disposed past the intersection of the plugging slot and the entry slot into the plugging slot (as represented by 70” in Figure 6).

  • the guidance arm, sliding roller, and plugging roller move away from the end wall 33 of the plugging slot and toward the opposing wall 36 along the axis XI.
  • the plugging roller moves closer to and/or reaches the opposing wall 36 of the plugging slot, continued movement of the sliding roller and the guidance arm in this same direction can cause the plugging roller to engage and roll along the opposing wall 36.
  • the curvature of this opposing wall 36 can cause the plugging roller to roll along the curved wall 36 into the entry slot 35 that intersects the plugging slot 30.
  • This movement of the plugging roller can cause the guidance arm to pivot as the axles on which the plugging roller and the sliding roller are disposed are both fixed to the arm. This pivoting of the arm can be seen in the transition from Figure 7 to Figure 8.
  • the resilient member 92 can apply a force that urges the plugging roller to move toward the opposing wall 37.
  • the curved, opposing walls 36, 37 provide the shape of the letter S to the entry slot. As shown in Figure 7, although not all of the wall 37 opposes (e.g., faces) the entirety of the wall 36, a substantial portion (e.g., at least a third) of the length of the wall 37 (from the intersection of the walls 32, 37 to the end of the wall 37 at the entry of the entry slot) opposes the wall 36. Similarly, although not all of the wall 36 opposes the entirety of the wall 33, a substantial portion of the length of the wall 36 opposes the wall 33.
