Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Verbindung zwischen zwei Fahrzeugteilen eines Gelenkfahrzeuges, insbesondere eines schienengebundenen Gelenkfahrzeuges.The invention relates to a connection between two vehicle parts Articulated vehicle, in particular a rail-bound articulated vehicle.

Gelenkverbindungen zwischen gelenkig miteinander verbundenen Fahrzeugteilen sind vielfältig bekannt; so ist insbesondere bekannt, daß das untere Gelenklager sämtliche Kräfte aufnehmen muß, die sowohl in radialer als auch in axialer Richtung auftreten. Das heißt, daß dieses untere Gelenklager der Übertragung solcher Kräfte dient, wie sie beispielsweise bei Kurvenfahrten auftreten, sowie der Schub- und Zugkräfte beim Ziehen bzw. Bremsen eines derartigen Gelenkfahrzeuges. Articulated connections between hinged together Vehicle parts are widely known; it is particularly known that lower spherical bearing must absorb all forces, both in radial and also occur in the axial direction. That means that this lower spherical bearing is used to transmit such forces as, for example, when cornering occur, as well as the pushing and pulling forces when pulling or braking a such articulated vehicle.

Fahrzeuge, insbesondere gelenkig miteinander verbundene Fahrzeuge, erfahren allerdings darüber hinaus eine Vielzahl von Krafteinwirkungen, die in einer ebenfalls hohen Zahl von Relativbewegungen der Fahrzeugteile zueinander resultieren. So sind hier zu nennen Bewegungseinflüsse, wie sie auftreten, wenn ein solches Gelenkfahrzeug um eine Kurve fährt, aber auch Bewegungen der Fahrzeugteile relativ zueinander, wenn ein derartiges Fahrzeug durch eine Bodenwelle bzw. über eine Kuppe fährt. Neben derartigen Nickbewegungen entstehen auch sogenannte Wankbewegungen der Fahrzeugteile relativ zueinander, wenn die Fahrzeugteile relativ zueinander verdreht werden.Vehicles, in particular vehicles articulated to one another, However, they also experience a large number of an equally high number of relative movements of the vehicle parts to each other result. So here are the influences of movement, like them occur when such an articulated vehicle turns, but also Movements of the vehicle parts relative to each other when such Vehicle drives through a bump or over a crest. In addition to such Nodding movements also result in so-called roll movements Vehicle parts relative to each other when the vehicle parts are relative to each other be twisted.

Nun ist es so, daß insbesondere bei schienengebundenen Fahrzeugen die Hüllkurve des Fahrzeuges relativ klein bleiben soll. Unter der Hüllkurve versteht man den vom Fahrzeug insgesamt benötigten radialen Raum während der Fahrbewegung des Fahrzeuges. Insbesondere extreme Wankbewegungen der Fahrzeugteile relativ zueinander bewirken demzufolge eine große Hüllkurve. Eine solche große Hüllkurve ist insofern unerwünscht, alsdann wesentlich mehr Raum für das Fahrzeug auf dem Schienenweg bereitgestellt werden muß. Die Bereitstellung eines großen Raumes für die Fahrbewegung des Fahrzeuges ist entsprechend teuer, was sich insbesondere beim Bau von U-Bahnen bemerkbar macht.Now it is the case that especially in the case of rail-bound vehicles Envelope of the vehicle should remain relatively small. Under the envelope the total radial space required by the vehicle during the Movement of the vehicle. In particular, extreme roll movements of the Vehicle parts relative to each other consequently cause a large envelope. Such a large envelope is undesirable in that it is significantly more Space for the vehicle on the railroad must be provided. The Providing a large space for the vehicle's movement accordingly expensive, which is particularly the case when building subways noticeable.

Zur Begrenzung der Wankbewegungen der Fahrzeugteile relativ zueinander sind die unterschiedlichsten Maßnahmen bekannt, die jedoch häufig bedingen, daß insbesondere bei Durchfahren enger Kurven bei gleichzeitigem Auftreten von Nickbewegungen oder bei extremen Nickbewegungen die Stimseiten der Fahrzeugteile an den entsprechenden Stellen ausgespart werden müssen.To limit the rolling movements of the vehicle parts relative to each other the most varied of measures are known, but they often require that especially when driving through tight curves with simultaneous occurrence of pitching movements or in extreme pitching movements the face sides of the Vehicle parts must be recessed in the appropriate places.

So ist aus der gattungsgemäßen DE-AS 1 042 391 eine Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art bekannt; hierbei ist im Bereich der Dachebene eine Gelenkverbindung vorgesehen, die aus trapezförmig gestalteten, torsionssteifen Kästen und daran angelenkten Dreieckslenkern besteht. Hierbei können Kräfte quer zur Fahrtrichtung übertragen werden; die Gelenkverbindung ist allerdings auch in der Lage, den Bewegungen um die Querachse durch das untere Gelenk zu folgen.DE-AS 1 042 391 is a device of the type mentioned at the outset known; there is an articulated connection in the area of the roof level provided that of trapezoidal, torsionally rigid boxes and attached articulated wishbones. Forces can cross to Direction of travel are transmitted; the articulation is also in able to move around the transverse axis through the lower joint consequences.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Verbindung der eingangs genannten Art bereitzustellen, bei der eine Nickbewegung der Fahrzeugteile relativ zueinander ermöglicht wird, jedoch Wankbewegungen der Fahrzeugteile relativ zueinander vermieden werden, ohne daß besondere Maßnahmen an den Fahrzeugteilen getroffen werden müssen.The invention has for its object a connection of the beginning Provide mentioned type, in which a pitching movement of the vehicle parts relative to each other is possible, but roll movements of the vehicle parts can be avoided relative to each other without special measures to the Vehicle parts must be hit.

Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß das Scherengestell nach Art eines Schamierbandes ausgebildet ist, wobei die Enden des Scharnierbandes gelenkig mit dem einen bzw. anderen Fahrzeugteil verbindbar sind. Durch die Anordnung des Scherengestelles quer zur Längsachse des Fahrzeugs wird erreicht, daß Wankbewegungen vermieden werden, hingegen Nickbewegungen auch in extremer Form möglich sind, ohne daß entsprechende Aussparungen in den Stimseiten der Fahrzeugteile vorgesehen sein müssen. Die Verdrehbarkeit der Fahrzeugteile auch im Dachbereich ist erforderlich, da ansonsten das Durchfahren von Kurven nicht möglich ist. Insofern ist das Scherengestell verdrehbar mit dem jeweils gegenüberliegenden oder anderen Fahrzeugteil verbunden. Auch müssen keine besondere Maßnahmen in Bezug auf die Bereitstellung von Aussparungen an den Stimseiten der Fahrzeugteile vorgesehen sein, selbst wenn bei einer extremen Kurvenfahrt eines derartigen Fahrzeuges gleichzeitig Nickbewegungen der Fahrzeugteile relativ zueinander auftreten. Dies insbesondere auch deshalb, weil sich das Scherengestell in vertikaler Richtung aufbaut, nicht jedoch in Richtung der Stirnseite des anderen, gegenüberliegenden Fahrzeugteiles eintaucht.The object is achieved in that the scissor frame is designed in the manner of a hinge tape, the ends of the Hinge strap articulated with one or the other vehicle part are connectable. By arranging the scissors frame across Longitudinal axis of the vehicle is achieved that roll movements are avoided on the other hand, pitch movements are also possible in extreme form without that corresponding recesses in the end faces of the vehicle parts must be provided. The rotatability of the vehicle parts also in Roof area is required, otherwise driving through curves is not is possible. In this respect, the scissor frame can be rotated with the opposite or other vehicle part connected. Neither have to special measures regarding the provision of recesses be provided on the front sides of the vehicle parts, even if one extreme cornering of such a vehicle at the same time Nodding movements of the vehicle parts occur relative to each other. This especially because the scissors frame is in the vertical direction builds up, but not towards the face of the other, opposite Immersed vehicle part.

Durch eine mehrfache Unterteilung des Scherengestells bzw. Scharnierbandes mit entsprechend mehreren Gelenkpunkten kann das Gestell bzw. Band flacher gebaut werden, das heißt, es wird Bauraum im Dachbereich geschaffen, was gegebenenfalls die Kabelführung im Dachbereich erleichtert.By dividing the scissor frame or Hinged belt with several hinge points can do that The frame or belt should be built flat, which means that there will be space in the Roof area created what, if necessary, the cable routing in the Roof area relieved.

Nach einem weiteren, besonderen Merkmal der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß das eine Ende des Scharnierbandes gelenkig mit einer Linearführung kuppelbar ist, wobei die Linearführung an dem anderen Fahrzeugteil befestigbar ist. Extreme Nickbewegungen der Fahrzeugteile relativ zueinander entstehen immer dann, wenn ein Fahrzeugteil beispielsweise angehoben wird, oder aber entgleist. Hierbei muß die Verbindung zwischen zwei Wagenteilen in der Lage sein, schadlos Nickwinkel von bis zu 5 ° aufzunehmen. Durch eine Kombination einer Linearführung mit einem Scharnierband oder Scherengestell wird nun erreicht, daß ein Teil des Nickwinkels durch das Scherengestell aufgenommen wird, und ein weiterer Teil durch die Linearführung. Es hat sich nämlich herausgestellt, daß im normalen Betrieb Nickwinkel von nicht mehr als 2,5 ° auftreten. Die zuvor beschriebenen extremen Nickwinkel von bis zu 5 ° treten hingegen nur in besonderen Fällen auf, wie z. B. dann, wenn eines der Fahrzeugteile angehoben werden muß. Es ist bei der erfindungsgemäßen Konstruktion demzufolge so, daß die üblicherweise auftretenden Nickwinkel von bis zu 2,5 ° problemlos durch das Scherengestell bzw. durch das Scharnierband aufgenommen werden können, wohingegen größere Winkel zusätzlich von der Linearführung abgefangen werden.According to a further, special feature of the invention, that one end of the hinge strap is articulated with a linear guide can be coupled, the linear guide on the other vehicle part is attachable. Extreme pitching movements of the vehicle parts relative to each other always arise when a vehicle part, for example is raised, or derailed. The connection between two car parts will be able to pitch harmlessly up to 5 ° take. By combining a linear guide with a Hinged belt or scissor-type frame is now achieved that part of the Nickwinkel is taken up by the scissors frame, and another Part by the linear guide. It has been found that in normal operation pitch angle of no more than 2.5 ° occur. The one before extreme pitch angles of up to 5 ° described, however, occur only in special cases, such as B. if one of the vehicle parts must be raised. It is with the construction according to the invention consequently so that the commonly occurring pitch angles of up to 2.5 ° easily through the scissor frame or through the hinge strap can be recorded, whereas larger angles from the linear guide can be intercepted.

Insbesondere durch die mehrfache Unterteilung des Scherengestells bzw. Scharnierbandes können Nickwinkel von ca. 7 ° verwirklicht werden, so daß die Unterteilung bei Auftreten extremer Nickwinkel einer geringen Belastung ausgesetzt ist.In particular through the multiple subdivision of the scissor frame or Hinge band can achieve pitch angles of approx. 7 °, see above that the subdivision occurs when extreme pitch angles of a small Exposed to stress.

Eine derartige Linearführung umfaßt mindestens eine Achse, die parallel zu ihrer Längsachse verschieblich durch eine Führungseinrichtung aufnehmbar ist. Die Führungseinrichtung ist hierbei als Gehäuse ausgebildet, das vorzugsweise durch eine Konsole, insbesondere verdrehbar durch das andere Fahrzeugteil aufnehmbar ist. Würde man anstelle des Scherengestells bzw. des Scharnierbandes ausschließlich eine Linearführung vorsehen, so wäre damit zu rechnen, daß diese relativ schnell verschleißt, da insbesondere bei Auftreten von Nickbewegungen eine solche Linearführung auch immer auf Biegung beansprucht wird. Das Scherengestell erfährt allerdings keine Beanspruchung auf Biegung.Such a linear guide comprises at least one axis that is parallel to its longitudinal axis slidably received by a guide device is. The guide device is designed as a housing that preferably by a console, in particular rotatable by the other vehicle part is recordable. Would you instead of Scissor frame or hinge strap only one Provide linear guide, it would be expected that this relatively quickly wears out, especially when a pitching movement occurs such linear guide is always subjected to bending. The However, the scissor frame is not subjected to any bending stress.

Im Weiteren zeigt die Verbindug zwischen den beiden Fahrzeugteilen ein im Bodenbereich der Fahrzeugteile angeordnetes unteres Gelenklager, das unter anderem der Übertragung von Zug- und Druckkräften während der unter anderem der Übertragung von Zug- und Druckkräften während der Fahrzeugbewegung dient.Furthermore, the connection between the two vehicle parts shows an im Bottom area of the vehicle parts arranged lower spherical bearing, the including the transmission of tensile and compressive forces during the including the transmission of tensile and compressive forces during the Vehicle movement serves.

Gemäß den Figuren 1 bis 3 sind die beiden Fahrzeugteile mit 1 und 10 bezeichnet. Die beiden Fahrzeugteile sind durch den schematisch angedeuteten Übergang 20 miteinander verbunden. Die Verbindung der beiden Fahrzeugteile 1, 10 im Bodenbereich des Gelenkfahrzeuges erfolgt durch das untere Gelenklager 30. Dieses Gelenklager 30 überträgt im Wesentlichen sämtliche Kräfte, wie sie während der normalen Fahrbewegung eines Gelenkfahrzeuges zwischen den beiden Fahrzeugteilen auftreten.According to FIGS. 1 to 3, the two vehicle parts are 1 and 10 designated. The two vehicle parts are shown schematically by the indicated transition 20 connected together. The connection of the two vehicle parts 1, 10 takes place in the floor area of the articulated vehicle through the lower spherical bearing 30. This spherical bearing 30 transmits in Essentially all forces as they do during normal Movement of an articulated vehicle between the two vehicle parts occur.

Gegenstand der Erfindung ist nunmehr die Verbindung der beiden Fahrzeugteile 1, 10 im Deckenbereich, das heißt oberhalb des Überganges 20. Hierbei zeigt das eine Fahrzeugteil 1 das nach Art eines Scharnierbandes ausgebildete Scherengestell 40. Dieses Scherengestell bzw. Scharnierband 40 besitzt die beiden Bänder 41, 42, die durch das Scharnier 43 miteinander verbunden sind. Endseitig besitzen die Bänder 41, 42 ebenfalls ein Scharnier 44, 45 zur Verbindung mit dem einen Fahrzeugteil 1 bzw. durch die Linearführung 50 mit dem anderen Fahrzeugteil 10. Die Linearführung 50 umfaßt ein Gehäuse 51 mit zwei parallel zueinander verlaufenden axial verschieblich durch das Gehäuse aufnehmbaren Achsen 53, 54. Die Verschieblichkeit der Achsen im Gehäuse kann dadurch bewerkstelligt werden, daß das Gehäuse eine entsprechende Gleitbuchse oder axiale Kugellager aufweist. Das Gehäuse 51 lagert auf einer vertikalen Achse verdrehbar auf der Konsole 56, die am anderen Fahrzeugteil 10 befestigt ist.The invention now relates to the connection of the two Vehicle parts 1, 10 in the ceiling area, that is, above the transition 20. Here shows a vehicle part 1 in the manner of a Hinge strap designed scissor frame 40. This scissor frame or hinge strap 40 has the two straps 41, 42 through the Hinge 43 are connected to each other. At the end, the bands 41 have 42 also a hinge 44, 45 for connection to one Vehicle part 1 or through the linear guide 50 with the other Vehicle part 10. The linear guide 50 comprises a housing 51 with two parallel to each other axially displaceable through the housing recordable axes 53, 54. The displaceability of the axes in Housing can be accomplished in that the housing a corresponding slide bush or axial ball bearing. The housing 51 is rotatably mounted on a vertical axis on the console 56, which on other vehicle part 10 is attached.

Der Bewegungsablauf bei einer Nickbewegung der Fahrzeugteile 1, 10 relativ zueinander, entweder bei Durchfahren einer Senke bzw. bei Überfahren einer Kuppe, ergibt sich ebenfalls aus der Darstellung gemäß Figur 1.The sequence of movements when the vehicle parts 1, 10 are pitched relative to each other, either when driving through a depression or at Driving over a hill is also shown in the illustration Figure 1.

Aus Figur 2 ist insbesondere die Erstreckung des Scherengestelles bzw. Scharnierbandes quer zur Längsachse des Fahrzeuges erkennbar. Schlußendlich wird durch diese Ausrichtung des Scharnierbandes quer zur Längsachse des Fahrzeuges erreicht, daß durch das Scharnierband bzw. das Scherengestell die Kräfte bei Wankbewegung der Fahrzeugteile relativ zueinander aufgenommen werden und schlußendlich von den Fahrzeugteilen 1, 10 selbst aufgrund ihrer Eigenelastizität aufgefangen werden müssen.The extension of the scissor frame or Hinge band can be seen across the longitudinal axis of the vehicle. In the end, this alignment of the hinge strap transversely to Longitudinal axis of the vehicle reached that by the hinge strap or the scissors frame the forces when the vehicle parts roll to be taken up to each other and ultimately by the Vehicle parts 1, 10 caught themselves due to their inherent elasticity Need to become.
