Problems solved by technology

This has hitherto resulted in high tooling costs
Another factor that leads to higher costs related to manufacturing and warehousing is the variety of product variations
Another unavoidable problem on this basis is that, in the subsequent laborious and complicated procedure, it is only possible to cooperate with the coupling components located in the housing; namely: to increase the cost

Embodiment Construction

[0046] Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the device of the present invention will be further described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0047] FIG. 1 shows the structure of a coupler head 1 with a standard component structure that can be understood, having two basic components: a faceplate 4 and an actual coupler head housing 2 . A correction member 6 may be provided between the coupler housing 2 and the faceplate 4 . Said correcting member 6 serves to compensate or eliminate any difference that may exist between the facing surfaces of the coupler housing 2 and the faceplate 4 . As shown in FIG. 1 , the correction member may be a correction plate 6 . Furthermore, a pad member (not shown), such as a pad member formed as a shim, may additionally or alternatively be used. Needless to say, the correction member and the pad member are not part of the constituent structure of the device of the present invention.

Abstract

The coupling head (1) for rail vehicles has a housing (2) which is closed off by an end plate (4). The endplate and the coupling housing are detachably interconnected. The coupling head housing has no construction details which apply to only one type of rail vehicle, while the construction details which do apply to rail vehicle type are provided in or on the end plate. A compensating element (6) is provided between the coupling head housing and end plate and has the cross sectional geometry of the end face (3) of the coupling head housing. An independent claim is included for a method for the mounting of a coupling head in which heating elements (9,11,13) are fitted in slots or holes in the end plate, and the pre-assembled end plate is then detachably fastened to the coupling head housing by connecting elements (5).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a coupler head having a coupler head housing and a front faceplate that closes off the coupler head housing for use on a joinable vehicle. The present invention also relates to a method of assembling the above-mentioned coupler head. Background technique [0002] In the technical and patent literature, there are many descriptions of coupler head housings for use on attachable vehicles. For example, the document DE 43 12 405 A1 describes a central buffer coupling for use in railroad vehicles with additional protection. [0003] The publication publication number DE 82 10 877 also describes an electric heater for use in a central buffer coupling. Install the heater into the central buffer coupling to ensure trouble-free operation in winter. In particular, the integrated heater will ensure that the front faceplate is protected from snow and ice to guarantee the reliable function of the coupling. Document Publication No...
