FRONT CONSTRUCTION OF AN IRON RAIL CARRIAGE

摘要

The invention relates to the front section of a railway car comprising a motor transverse beam (2) which is horizontally arranged and vertical to the railway car axis (1). Both front section ends are firmly connected to the longitudinal supports located on the sides of a railway car (1), said supports being parallel to the railway car axis (1). The longitudinal supports (10) extend along the railway car axis (1) as diagonal longitudinal supports (3) from the motor transverse beam (2) toward the buffer elements (4). The longitudinal support ends which are situated opposite the motor transverse beam (2) are firmly connected to said buffer elements (4). A coupling support (6) is arranged in the middle of the motor transverse beam (2). Supports (5) which diagonally extend forward are firmly connected to said coupling support and the buffer elements (4). This results in forming a more compact nose of the inventive front section. The nose can be strengthened above and below by firmly connecting said nose to floor panels (7). The floor panels can have stabilizing reinforcing elements (8). The rear part of the front section extends from the motor transverse beam (2) to a horizontal crossover transverse beam (9) in a direction toward the middle of the car. Both crossover transverse beam ends are firmly connected to the longitudinal supports (10). In addition, horizontally extending floor panels (7) are provided above or below said rear pan and the floor panels can have stabilizing reinforcing elements (8).
