Problems solved by technology

[0007] When a side buffer element or a crash box is usually placed on the front of a rail vehicle as a shock absorber, these elements absorb or disperse at least part of the impact force, and the shock absorption effect that such a shock absorber can achieve in high-speed impacts is less than Not enough to keep the hull from being damaged
Especially when the shock absorption capacity of the side buffer elements or the crash box is exhausted, the car body structure of the driver's cab or passenger area will be greatly deformed, so that sufficient living space for the driver and passengers cannot be guaranteed, which has great risks. risk

Abstract

The invention relates to a vehicle front-end with a vehicle front-end structure (100) for mounting to the front face of a track-bound vehicle, in particular a rail vehicle, wherein the vehicle front-end structure (100) is completely made of structural elements of fibre composite material or sandwich structures of fibre composite material. The structural elements forming the vehicle front-end structure (100) comprise first structural elements (10, 10', 11, 12, 12', 14, 15, 16) which are directly connected to each other and configured in such a manner that a deformation-resistant, self-supporting head structure is formed for receiving a vehicle driver's stand (101). The structural elements forming the vehicle front-end structure (100) further comprise second structural elements (20, 20', 21, 21', 22, 22', 23, 24, 24') which are connected to the first structural elements (10, 10', 11, 12, 12', 14, 15, 16) and are configured in such a manner that at least a part of the impact energy (collision energy), which is generated in the event of a collision of the track-bound vehicle due to a transmission of impact forces and is introduced into the structure (100), is absorbed by at least a partial irreversible deformation or at least a partial destruction of the second structural elements (20, 20', 21, 21', 22, 22', 23, 24, 24').

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a front module with a vehicle front frame mounted at the front of a rail vehicle, wherein the frame consists entirely of structural elements made of fiber-reinforced plastic. Background technique [0002] According to the patent application document GB2411630A published by the British Patent Office, a cabin frame of a railway vehicle is disclosed, the frame is composed of frame elements forming the front, bottom, top and side of the cabin. This known frame is provided with a plurality of flexible regions. When a rail vehicle equipped with such a frame vehicle front module collides with another rail vehicle or an obstacle, the flexible area is bent and deformed, so that the frame can be adapted to the shape of the impact obstacle, and the frame withstands the impact during the impact. Impact energy can be at least partially dissipated. [0003] In addition, according to the cabin of a rail vehicle disclosed in the patent appli...
