Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a passenger vehicle having a stairway for passengers, in particular a vehicle having a plurality of decks or floors, especially a double-decker vehicle such as a train.
  • One design of rail carriage has an entry leading into an entry area.
  • the entry is arranged 760 mm above the track. This is a so-called low-level entry design. While attempts to provide access from the low-level entry area to respective upper and lower decks, these have not been without their problems.
  • DE 44 23 243 C2 discloses an arrangement and design of flights of stairs in double-decker rail vehicles, in which an off-set stand is provided.
  • the stand is elliptical in shape and half its height is provided between the upper deck flight of stairs and lower deck flight of stairs.
  • the off-set stand follows the shape of the internal contour of the slightly twisted upper-deck and lower-deck flights of stairs.
  • the flight of stairs leading to the upper deck, which starts with an off-centre displacement in the direction of the lower-deck flight of stairs has, over its full width, a stepped angle of the upper step of less than or equal to 20 degrees with respect to the transverse axis of the car.
  • a disadvantage with this arrangement of the flight of stairs is that the flow of passengers into the single-decker entry region and into the upper deck can pass only via the two-lane flights of stairs so that the flow of passengers is subject to congestion at the lower-deck flight of stairs. This is particularly the case when passengers are leaving the upper deck and the single-decker region.
  • the speedy movement of passengers into and out of this double-decker railcar is therefore possible only to a limited degree, having an adverse affect on the stop times at stations and on the travel times in general.
  • DE 94 21 249 U1 discloses a double-decker rail vehicle in which an entry region is embodied as a standard entry with a possibility of access via a flight of stairs to the lower deck and a flight of stairs to the upper deck.
  • An alternative entry region is embodied as a low-level entry with a possibility of access to the upper deck via the single-decker region by means of a system with three flights of stairs.
  • DE 295 07 057 U1 discloses a double-decker rail vehicle with low-level entries, in particular for double-decker centre cars or driving trailers, in which rail vehicle an entry height into the entry regions of a maximum of 760 mm from the upper edge of the rail is provided.
  • the ceiling of the upper deck is extended directly as far as the inner contour of the car roof line above the entry regions, and the floor of the upper deck and the floor of the lower deck approximately following the dimension by which the ceiling of the upper deck is raised in this region.
  • GB 270 892 discloses a double deck passenger vehicle having two stairs between the decks and having separate entrances to the two decks from points outside the vehicle and separate exits from the two decks to points outside the vehicle so arranged that intending passengers for either deck may enter, normally, by way of a side opening, spaced from the exit opening at the same side for passengers from that deck a considerable distance lengthwise of the vehicle, the entry to and exit from the upper deck at the stair heads being similarly spaced, the arrangement being such that passengers to or from one check do not necessarily and normally intermingle with passengers to or from the other deck. Both separate entrances are lower than the lower deck.
  • GB 233 617 discloses a double deck passenger vehicle wherein the seats on the upper deck are arranged to constitute two back-to-back rows that extend lengthwise of the vehicle and the gangway on the lower deck is disposed below the said rows of seats and so as to be parallel with the axis of the vehicle and between two parallel rows of seats placed respectively along the two sides of the lower deck portion.
  • the necessary walking height for the gangway of the lower deck is obtained by utilising the space underneath the two back-to-back rows of seats of the upper deck.
  • the two decks can accommodate approximately the same number of passengers. Access to the upper deck is given by two flights of stairs extending lengthwise of the vehicle on the two sides of a central flight of stairs leading to the central gangway of the lower deck.
  • the width of the central flight of stairs leading to the lower deck has to be limited for obvious security reasons and is roughly equal to the width of the two flights of stairs leading to the upper deck. In other words, this arrangement is disadvantageous because it does not provide the similar access conditions to the lower and upper decks.
  • the advantage of the arrangement of the present invention is that the double-decker region which can be usefully and economically exploited is made larger and the entry can be adjusted to various station platform heights by means of simple modifications.
  • the main flight of stairs is preferably wide enough to accommodate two streams of passengers, passing side by side. This is a so-called "two-lane" staircase.
  • the secondary flight of stairs may be configured to accommodate just a single stream of passengers, or more.
  • the entry space is preferably substantially level across its entire width. Countersunk steps may be set into the floor in the region of the entry from the exterior.
  • the terrace has an arcuate shape. Such a form allows for easier access for passengers moving across the floor of the entry space from the entry to the foot of the main flight of stairs.
  • the stair arrangement of the present invention may be employed in any passenger vehicle requiring access to one or more floors or decks.
  • the arrangement is most suitable for a rail vehicle, such as a train carriage, in particular a low-level entry carriage having an entry at about 760 mm above the rails.
  • a double-decker vehicle having a two-lane main staircase 1 leading from the entry space 2 into an upper deck 3.
  • the floor of the entry space 2 is level over its entire width.
  • the stepped approach to the main flight of stairs 1 is displaced into the entry space 2 in such a way that a terrace having a first step 6 is arranged in the region of a central imaginary entry line 7 of the entry space 2.
  • the entry line 7 virtually halves the depth of the entry space 2 and leads approximately from the centre of one entry to the centre of the opposite entry.
  • the first part of the flight of stairs, the first step 6, a second step 8, and a third step 9 are embodied so as to be virtually circular and in the form of terraces.
  • the following steps of the main staircase are straight.
  • the secondary flights of stairs 4 to the right and left of the main flight of stairs 1 are preferably arranged at an angle to the transverse axis of the car and thus direct the flow of passengers in a targeted fashion to the entry doors and to the central aisle of the lower deck 5.
  • the secondary flights of stairs 4 have arcuate steps and can have, viewed from the lower deck 5, a circular access 13 to the flight of stairs, which is uninterrupted by the main flight of stairs 1.
  • the passengers can thus move from the entry directly into all the regions of the vehicle (upper deck, lower deck, single-decker region) of the double-decker car. That is to say it is possible to pass from the entry to the main flight of stairs 1, from the entry to the secondary flight of stairs 4, from the entry directly through the entry space 2 to the opposite side, to the secondary flight of stairs 4 lying opposite.
  • the access to the flights of stairs always takes place in a fan-like fashion.
  • the arrangement of the flights of stairs also permits the end regions of the cars to be generously equipped with seats.
  • the technical equipment can be arranged in the roof space 10, as shown in Fig. 1 . This arrangement of technical equipment is not illustrated in more detail in the associated drawings, but a person skilled in the art is completely familiar with its implementation. .
  • the transparent configuration of the interior space of the double-decker car is significantly improved by means of the generous ceiling height of approximately 2700 mm in the entry space 2 which is now possible, at the same time permitting a uniform overview of the adjoining passenger spaces, such as the upper deck and lower deck 3 and 5 and of the single-decker region.
  • the new solution provides a more flexible integration into the access system through the arcuate and terrace-shaped step segments in the entry space 2.
  • the passengers are permitted to access the main flight of stairs 1 from a plurality of sides.
  • the level floor of the entry space 2 is provided in the door region with a countersunk step 12 so that 550 mm high station platforms can also be accommodated.
