Embodiment Construction

[0074] figure 1 A side view of rail vehicle 100 is shown in a schematic drawing. The rail vehicle includes an underside, wherein a direction of travel is defined during operation of the rail vehicle.

[0075] Figure 2A and 2B A side view of a portion of an airbag module 110 according to one embodiment is illustrated. The airbag module 110 is configured to be fixed on the underside of the rail vehicle 100 between the rail vehicle 100 and the rail 200 .

[0076] The airbag module 110 includes a bracket 170 for fastening the airbag module 110 on the underside of the rail vehicle. Furthermore, the airbag module 110 includes a support flap 120 having a front end and a rear end. The rear end of the support flap may be pivotally mounted by means of a pivot bearing 130 . For example, the airbag module 110 may include two pivot bearings 130 . The rear end of the support flap 120 can thus be pivotally mounted on the bracket 170 by means of the pivot bearing 130 .

Abstract

An airbag module (110) and a rail vehicle with an airbag module (110) are described herein. The airbag module (110) comprises a support flap (120), which is pivotably mounted on its rear end, whereinthe airbag module (110) is convertable from a closed state into an open state by pivoting the support flap (120), and an airbag, which is folded in the closed state of the airbag module (110) and unfolded in the open state of the airbag module (110), so that the unfolded airbag and the support flap (120) together form an impact protection for a person on the track (200). Furthermore, a rail vehicle with one or a plurality of airbag modules (110) is described.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a modular personal protection device for fastening to the underside of a rail vehicle. Background technique [0002] Accidents in which rail vehicles collide with people (passers-by) often have fatal consequences for people. In many cases, passers-by are crushed under rail vehicles after a collision, where they can be seriously injured, as the underside of rail vehicles often presents a high risk of injury due to sharp and unprotected vehicle undersides . Airbags are known as primary protection due to their multiple uses in the automotive industry; but even though several documents have been published on the application of personal protection using airbags to rail vehicles, they have so far remained Rarely used in the rail vehicle industry. [0003] Most ideas are based on two principles. On the one hand, using protective devices to protect partially run-over or not yet run-over persons from additional collisions with the v...
