Definitions

  • the invention relates to a rail-bound vehicle with an electrical interface, the vehicle having both a car body and a head module.
  • the invention also relates to a method for producing an electrical connection between a car body and a head module of a rail-bound vehicle and a rail-bound vehicle.
  • the driver's cab also known as the head module, has deformable zones that can be deformed in a controlled manner to absorb impact energy and a safety cage that creates a survival space for the train driver.
  • the actual car body is also designed in such a way that it can absorb the impact energy transmitted by the head module.
  • the electrical Lines or cables are connected to one another or are supplied with electrical energy via lines.
  • the lines or cables which have already been prepared with the required length during the pre-assembly of the car body, are fed through openings, bushings or cable ducts at the interface between the head module and the car body into the head module and connected to the electrical devices arranged there.
  • the openings at the interface are sealed against the possible ingress of fire or smoke.
  • the space between the respective opening and the cables routed through it is filled with an intumescent compound.
  • a cable bushing with a fire protection means made of an intumescent material designed as a mounting component can be used, as described in the older German patent application DE102012203146A1 is revealed.
  • Laying and connecting electrical lines or cables in the head module after the two parts of the end car have been joined together means a relatively high amount of work, in particular because of the cramped space conditions in the driver's cab.
  • the object of the invention is to specify a device that enables simpler connection of electrical components in the head module and car body of a car of a rail-bound vehicle. This object is achieved by the track-bound vehicle and the method according to the independent patent claims. Configurations of the rail-bound vehicle are specified in the dependent patent claims.
  • a first aspect of the invention relates to a rail-bound vehicle, which is designed as an end car of a multiple unit or as a locomotive and which has a car body and at least one head module connected to the car body at a mechanical interface, electrical lines routed in the car body being terminated on at least a first part of an electrical plug connection arranged in the area of the mechanical interface, and electrical lines routed in the head module on at least a second part of the electrical plug connection are terminated, and the parts of the respective plug connection can be connected in the area of the mechanical interface.
  • these two parts can be mechanically assembled at a relatively late stage in the manufacture of the vehicle due to the respective termination of the electrical lines in the head module and the car body.
  • the electrical devices described at the outset are already largely pre-assembled and wired in the head module and car body, so that after mechanical assembly of the head module and the car body, the respective parts of the electrical plug connections are assembled in order to establish electrical connections between the lines in the head module and those in the car body.
  • the at least one first part of the electrical plug connection is arranged in the area of a cross member arranged in the transverse direction of the vehicle.
  • the at least one first part of the electrical plug connection is arranged in at least one opening in a wall of the traverse that is adjacent to the mechanical interface.
  • the traverse is arranged in the area of a car body ceiling and/or in the area of a car body floor of the car body.
  • the traverse can be used to mechanically join the head module and the car body.
  • the traverse can have openings or bores through which threaded screws can be guided.
  • the bores themselves can also have a respective thread into which threaded screws are screwed.
  • the traverse can be designed as an extruded profile as part of the car body construction.
  • the traverse can be designed as an integral part of the car body structure or the car body shell.
  • the at least one first part of the electrical plug connection is designed as a respective socket with a plurality of contact openings and the at least one second part of the electrical plug connection is designed as a respective plug with a plurality of contact pins corresponding to the plurality of contact openings.
  • the number of electrical plug connections and the number of contact pins or contact openings provided therein is selected, for example, depending on the number of electrical devices to be connected and the number of lines required for their electrical connection.
  • the first and second parts of an electrical plug connection can also each have both contact pins and contact openings.
  • the car body and the head module are parts of an end car of a multiple unit.
  • head modules are used in particular to meet safety requirements in the event of collisions with rail vehicles.
