Embodiment Construction

[0016] figure 1 A train combination with sedan cars is shown exemplarily and schematically. A train of three vehicles is shown, in which a rail vehicle 2 in sedan chair configuration is coupled between two conventional rail vehicles 3 . Here, the rail vehicle coupling 1 according to the invention is arranged between the rail vehicle 2 in sedan chair configuration and the rail vehicle 1 on the right. The additional coupling of the rail vehicle 2 in sedan chair configuration comes from a further embodiment, which only has to transmit weight and running forces between the vehicles, wherein a ball joint with three rotational degrees of freedom can be used, because The rail vehicle coupling 1 at the other vehicle end prevents the rail vehicle 2 from pivoting in the sedan chair configuration. The rail vehicle 2 in the sedan chair configuration and the coupled conventional rail vehicle 3 on the right can therefore only be moved together about their respective longitudinal axes.

Abstract

The invention relates to an oscillatingly rigid rail vehicle coupling (1) for connecting a rail vehicle (3) to a rail vehicle (2) in sedan chair construction, comprising a coupling designed for connection with two rail vehicles (2, One detachably connected joint eye (4) of 3) and another joint fork (5) designed for detachable connection with two rail vehicles (2, 3) and a horizontally oriented shaft (6) , the shaft is connected to the joint fork (5) and passes through a ball bearing (7) connected to the joint eye (4), wherein the joint eye (4) comprises a vertically oriented shaft end (8), the shaft The axis of rotation of the end extends through the point of rotation of the ball bearing (7), wherein the shaft end (8) is rotatably embedded in the bracket (9), and wherein the end of the shaft (6) is rotatably supported in bracket (9).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a swing-rigid rail vehicle coupling for coupling a rail vehicle with a rail vehicle in sedan chair configuration. Background technique [0002] A typical passenger rail vehicle has two chassis and can be coupled to another vehicle. However, the specific train configuration does not require an operationally suitable separability of the vehicle combination, so that other vehicle concepts can be used. This relates in particular to subways and trams, in which, for example, so-called sedan cars are also used, which do not include their own chassis but are carried by adjacent vehicles. In this way, an expensive chassis can be saved if the permissible axle loads of the route make it possible to increase the load on the remaining chassis. A special coupling is provided between the conventional carriage and the sedan carriage, which transmits the operating forces and gravity and ensures the required mobility for cornering, driving uph...
