Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Fahrzeug zur Personenbeförderung, insbesondere Stadtbahnwagen oder Omnibus, mit einem über Türen und meist mehrstufige Einstiege zugänglichen Fußboden eines Fahrgastraumes, wobei hinter mindestens einer Tür eine gegenüber dem Fußboden des Fahrgastraumes in der Höhe abgesenkte, stufenlos erreichbare Plattform einer für die Beförderung von behinderten Fahrgästen vorgesehenen Fahrgastkammer angeordnet ist.The invention relates to a vehicle for the transportation of people, in particular light rail vehicles or omnibuses, with a floor of a passenger compartment accessible via doors and mostly multi-stage entrances, with behind at least one door a platform which is lowered in height compared to the floor of the passenger compartment and which can be reached steplessly, one for the transport of Passenger compartment provided for disabled passengers.

Bei Stadtbahnwagen liegt der Fußboden des Fahrgastraumes in der Regel in einer Höhe von 800-900 mm über Schienenoberkante/Fahrbahnniveau (siehe z. B. die Zeitschrift "Der Stadtverkehr" Heft 8/1976 Seiten 283-285). Bei einer solchen Fußbodenhöhe ergeben sich unter Anordnung eines 4stufigen Einstieges Auftritthöhen von jeweils ca. 200 mm, die für die meisten Fahrgäste bequem sind. Für behinderte Fahrgäste beispielsweise Personen in Rollstühlen, mit Gehstöcken oder mit Kinderwagen ist der Zugang zum Fahrgastraum mitunter schwierig.In the case of light rail vehicles, the floor of the passenger compartment is usually at a height of 800-900 mm above the top edge of the rail / level of the railroad (see, for example, the magazine "Der Stadtverkehr" issue 8/1976, pages 283-285). With such a floor height, a 4-step entry gives rise to a step height of approx. 200 mm, which is comfortable for most passengers. For disabled passengers, for example people in wheelchairs, with walking sticks or with prams, access to the passenger compartment can be difficult.

Durch die US-A-4,339,224 ist ein Fahrzeug der gattungsgemäßen Art bekannt, das zur Beförderung von behinderten Personen eine hinter einer Tür liegende Fahrgastkammer aufweist, deren Plattform gegenüber dem Fußboden des übrigen Fahrgastraumes in der Höhe abgesenkt ist. Eine abklappbare Rampe, die in hochgeschwenkter Stellung einen Teil der Tür bildet, dient dem stufenlosen Erreichen der abgesenkten Plattform.From US-A-4,339,224 a vehicle of the generic type is known which has a passenger compartment located behind a door for the transport of disabled persons, the platform of which is lowered in height relative to the floor of the remaining passenger compartment. A fold-down ramp, which forms part of the door in the swiveled-up position, is used for stepless access to the lowered platform.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Fahrzeug der gattungsgemäßen Art auf möglichst einfache Weise für die Beförderung von behinderten Fahrgästen derart zu verbessern, daß größere Höhenunterschiede zwischen der Plattform und dem Niveau eines Bahnsteiges bzw. der Fahrbahn mit einer bequem flachen Neigung stufenlos ausgleichbar sind.The invention has for its object to improve a vehicle of the generic type in the simplest possible way for the transport of disabled passengers in such a way that larger height differences between the platform and the level of a platform or the roadway can be smoothly compensated with a comfortably flat inclination.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die Plattform der Fahrgastkammer um eine in Fahrzeuglängsrichtung verlaufende Drehachse nach unten schwenkbar ist.This object is achieved in that the platform of the passenger compartment can be pivoted downward about an axis of rotation running in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle.

Um insbesondere bei extremen Höhenunterschieden den Neigungswinkel der Plattform so flach wie möglich halten zu können, ist nach einer Ausführungsform der Erfindung vorgesehen, daß die schwenkbare Plattform der Fahrgastkammer in ihrem der Tür zugewandten Bereich eine abklappbare Rampe aufweist. In abgeklappter Stellung stützt sich diese Rampe auf dem Bahnsteig oder auf der Fahrbahn ab.In order to keep the inclination angle of the platform as flat as possible, especially in the case of extreme differences in height, it is provided according to one embodiment of the invention that the pivotable platform of the passenger compartment has a fold-down ramp in its region facing the door. In the folded position, this ramp is supported on the platform or on the road.

Gemäß einer ergänzenden Ausgestaltung der Erfindung bildet die Rampe der schwenkbaren Plattform in hochgeklappter Stellung einen Teil der Tür. Dadurch ergeben sich ein besonders kurzer Weg zwischen den beiden Stellungen der Rampe und die rationelle Möglichkeit, für die restliche Tür der Fahrgastkammer und die anderen Türen des Fahrzeuges von den Abmessungen her gleiche Türblätter zu verwenden.According to a supplementary embodiment of the invention, the ramp of the pivotable platform forms part of the door in the raised position. This results in a particularly short path between the two positions of the ramp and the rational possibility of using door leaves of the same dimensions for the remaining door of the passenger compartment and the other doors of the vehicle.

Um den betrieblichen Anforderungen auf einfache Weise entsprechen zu können, sieht eine weitere Ausgestaltung der Erfindung vor, daß die schwenkbare Plattform und - falls vorhanden - auch die abklappbare Rampe steuerungsmäßig mit der Bewegung der Tür gekoppelt sind. Aus Sicherheitsgründen sollte ein Bewegen z. B. der Rampe einerseits kurz vor dem Öffnen der Tür beginnen und andererseits kurz nach deren Schließen enden.In order to be able to meet the operational requirements in a simple manner, a further embodiment of the invention provides that the pivotable platform and - if present - also the foldable ramp are linked in terms of control to the movement of the door. For security reasons, moving e.g. B. the ramp on the one hand shortly before opening the door and on the other hand shortly after it closes.

Im Hinblick auf einen gefahrlosen Durchgang durch den Fahrgastraum ist in erfindungsgemäßer Weiterbildung der Fahrgastraum zur abgesenkten Fahrgastkammer hin durch ein Geländer abgesichert.With regard to a safe passage through the passenger compartment, in a further development according to the invention the passenger compartment is secured to the lowered passenger compartment by a railing.

Bei einem aus zwei Kopfwagenteilen und mindestens einem Mittelwagenteil bestehenden Gelenkfahrzeug weisen in der Regel nur die Kopfwagenteile Türen auf. Um den durch diese Türen geschaffenen guten Fahrgastfluß zu erhalten, sieht eine nächste Ausgestaltung der Erfindung vor, daß die mindestens eine abgesenkte Fahrgastkammer im Mittelwagenteil angeordnet ist.In the case of an articulated vehicle consisting of two head car parts and at least one middle car part, only the head car parts generally have doors. In order to maintain the good passenger flow created by these doors, a next embodiment of the invention provides that the at least one lowered passenger compartment is arranged in the middle car part.

Bei einem Fahrzeug, daß als Zweirichtungsfahrzeug beidseitig mit Türen und Einstiegen versehen ist, sind im Hinblick auf einen möglichst ungestörten Fahrgastfluß gemäß einer weiteren Ausführungsform der Erfindung zwei in Fahrzeugquerrichtung gegenüberliegend angeordnete abgesenkte Fahrgastkammern vorteilhaft.In a vehicle that is provided with doors and entrances on both sides as a bidirectional vehicle, two lowered passenger compartments arranged opposite one another in the transverse direction of the vehicle are advantageous with regard to an undisturbed passenger flow according to a further embodiment of the invention.

Durch die erfindungsgemäße, schwenkbare Plattform der Fahrgastkamme sind auf wagenbaulich einfache Weise besonders günstige Ein-und Ausstiegsverhältnisse für behinderte Fahrgäste geschaffen. Die schwenkbare Plattform ist im übrigen dann günstig, wenn eine möglichst große Bodenfreiheit des Fahrzeuges verlangt wird.The swiveling platform of the passenger crest according to the invention creates particularly favorable entry and exit conditions for disabled passengers in a simple manner in terms of car construction. The swiveling platform is otherwise inexpensive when the greatest possible ground clearance of the vehicle is required.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in der Zeichnung schematisch dargestellt und wird im weiteren näher beschrieben. Es zeigen

  • Fig 1 einen Wagenkasten eines Gelenkfahrzeuges in Seitenansicht,
  • Fig. 2 die Draufsicht zu Fig. 1,
  • Fig. 3 den Schnitt nach der Linie 111-111 in Fig. 2, im vergrößerten Maßstab.
An embodiment of the invention is shown schematically in the drawing and will be described in more detail below. Show it
  • 1 shows a body of an articulated vehicle in side view,
  • 2 shows the top view of FIG. 1,
  • Fig. 3 shows the section along the line 111-111 in Fig. 2, on an enlarged scale.

Gemäß Fig. 1 und 2 besteht der Wagenkasten des Gelenkfahrzeuges aus zwei Kopfwagenteilen 7a und 7b und einem Mittelwagenteil 7c. Im Hinblick auf einen Betrieb als Zweirichtungsfahrzeug befinden sich auf beiden Längsseiten der Kopfwagenteile 7a und 7b Türen 1 und mehrstufige Einstiege 2 in einer einen guten Fahrgastfluß erbringenden Anzahl. Über diese Türen 1 und Einstiege 2 ist der in allen Wagenteilen 7a bis 7c gleichbleibend hohe Fußboden 3 des mit Sitzen 4b versehenen Fahrgastraumes 4 zugänglich.1 and 2, the body of the articulated vehicle consists of two head car parts 7a and 7b and a middle car part 7c. With regard to operation as a bidirectional vehicle, there are doors 1 and multi-stage entrances 2 in a number providing a good flow of passengers on both longitudinal sides of the head carriage parts 7a and 7b. The floor 3 of the passenger compartment 4, which is provided with seats 4b, is consistently high in all car parts 7a to 7c and is accessible via these doors 1 and entrances 2.

Hinter hier doppelflügeligen Außenschwingtüren la des Mittelwagenteils 7c sind zwei für die Beförderung von behinderten Fahrgästen vorgesehene Fahrgastkammern 6 angeordnet, deren Plattform 5 tiefer liegt als der Fußboden 3. Die Plattform 5 kann auf eine Höhe von beispielsweise 250-300 mm über Schienenoberkante 8/ Fahrbahnniveau abgesenkt sein, so daß bei entsprechender Höhe eines nicht dargestellten Bahnsteiges oder einer Haltestelle mit einem Rollstuhl ohne weiteres in die Fahrgastkammer 6 hinein-und herausgefahren werden kann.Behind here double-wing outer swing doors la of the middle car part 7c, two passenger compartments 6 are provided for the transport of disabled passengers, the platform 5 of which is lower than the floor 3. The platform 5 can be lowered to a height of, for example, 250-300 mm above the upper rail edge 8 / level of the roadway be so that at the appropriate height of a web, not shown climb or a stop with a wheelchair can be easily moved into and out of the passenger compartment 6.

Zum stufenlosen Überbrücken eines Höhenunterschiedes zwischen der Plattform 5 und dem im Beispielsfall bordsteinhohen (150-200 mm) Bahnsteig 9 ist im türseitigen Bereich der Plattform 5 eine der Türbreite entsprechende, abklappbare Rampe 5a angebracht, die sich in ihrer strichpunktiert gezeigten abgeklappten Position auf dem Bahnsteig 9 abstützt. In hochgeklappter Stellung bildet die Rampe 5a den unteren Teil der Tür la und schließt dabei außen bündig mit der Tür la und der angrenzenden Fahrzeugseitenwand ab.For stepless bridging of a height difference between the platform 5 and the curb-high (150-200 mm) platform 9 in the example, a foldable ramp 5a corresponding to the door width is attached in the door-side region of the platform 5, which fold-down position shown in dash-dotted lines on the platform 9 supports. In the folded-up position, the ramp 5a forms the lower part of the door la and is flush with the outside of the door la and the adjacent vehicle side wall.

Um die Fahrgastkammer 6 auch bei einem flacheren oder nicht vorhandenen Bahnsteig bequem erreichen zu können, ist die Plattform 5 um eine in Fahrzeuglängsrichtung verlaufende Drehachse 5b nach unten schwenkbar. Diese Drehachse 5b befindet sich im Bereich unterhalb eines zum Fußboden 3 gehörenden Durchgangssteges 3a, der entsprechend einer hohen Stabilität des Mittelwagenteils 7c ausgebildet ist. Durch auf beiden Seiten des Durchgangssteges 3a angeordnete Geländer 4a ist der Fahrgastraum 4 zur jeweiligen Fahrgastkammer 6 hin abgesichert, wobei an den Geländern 4a senkrechte Haltestangen 4c befestigt sind.In order to be able to comfortably reach the passenger compartment 6 even on a flatter or non-existing platform, the platform 5 can be pivoted downward about an axis of rotation 5b running in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. This axis of rotation 5b is located in the area below a passage web 3a belonging to the floor 3, which is designed in accordance with a high stability of the middle car part 7c. The passenger compartment 4 is secured to the respective passenger compartment 6 by railings 4a arranged on both sides of the passage web 3a, with vertical support rods 4c being fastened to the railings 4a.

Es versteht sich, daß bei einem Einrichtungsfahrzeug mit Türen 1, 1a und Einstiegen 2 an nur einer Längsseite eine oder mehrere Fahrgastkammern 6 lediglich einseitig angeordnet sind. Gleichfalls abweichend vom behandelten Ausführungsbeispiel kann die schwenkbare Plattform 5 ohne Rampe 5a vorgesehen sein. Im übrigen wird auf die in der Zeichnung nicht dargestellte Möglichkeit hingewiesen, die Plattform 5 der Fahrgastkammer 6 wagenseitig derart in ihrer Höhe verstellbar zu führen, daß der Fußboden 3 des Fahrgastraumes 4 für behinderte Fahrgäste stufenlos zugänglich wird; das Geländer 4a ist dann öffnungsfähig ausgebildet.It goes without saying that in the case of a furnishing vehicle with doors 1, 1a and entrances 2, one or more passenger compartments 6 are only arranged on one side on one long side. Likewise deviating from the exemplary embodiment dealt with, the pivotable platform 5 can be provided without a ramp 5a. Incidentally, attention is drawn to the possibility, not shown in the drawing, of making the platform 5 of the passenger compartment 6 adjustable in height on the carriage side such that the floor 3 of the passenger compartment 4 is continuously accessible for disabled passengers; the railing 4a is then designed to be openable.
