Definitions

  • the railway car is intended in particular to offer its occupants the amenities necessary for a comfortable welcome during their travels.
  • the cell In the case of a railway car, one of the constraints applies to the toilet cell. Indeed, the cell must define a sufficient turning area allowing people in wheelchairs to maneuver properly.
  • the document EP 2 363 333 describes a railway car comprising a passenger room and a toilet cell placed at one end of the car.
  • the toilet cell and the passenger room are separated by an access platform with side doors which open from the rail car towards the platforms.
  • the platform also serves a staircase leading to a second level of the car.
  • the small volume allocated to the toilet cell prevents regulatory requirements from being achieved in terms of sizing the toilet cell, preventing people in wheelchairs from moving easily.
  • An aim of the invention is to propose a railway car accommodating a toilet cell having the necessary volume to comply with regulatory constraints while having only a small impact on the movement of passengers within the car.
  • the subject of the invention is a railway car of the aforementioned type, characterized in that the toilet cell is placed in the passenger room, at the back of the room opposite the single access opening, the access door opening into the passenger room.
  • the body 1 of a railway car 2 is illustrated, comprising a lower level 4 and an upper level 6.
  • a floor 8 separates the lower level 4 from the upper level 6.
  • the body 1 of the railway car 2 rests on bogies 10.
  • the figure 1 represents a railway car of an articulated trainset, that is to say a trainset in which the bogies are between the cars.
  • the bogies are then called intermediate.
  • the car is that of a conventional train, that is to say a train made up of cars each resting on two complete bogies independent of the other cars.
  • the upper level 6 includes a high passenger room 12 extending along most of the length of the car 2.
  • the high passenger room 12 is delimited by transverse partitions and has rows of seats for able-bodied passengers 14 fixed on the floor 8 and/or on a side face 15 of the railway car.
  • the rows of seats 14 are separated by a high median circulation 16 of axis A-A' on the floor 8.
  • a connecting intercirculation 18 connects with the adjacent car of the train via a door 20.
  • An access platform 22 is located in the extension of the end of the upper passenger room 12 and opposite the connecting intercirculation 18.
  • the access platform 22 is separated from the room high passenger compartment 12 by a partition equipped or not with a door 24.
  • the access platform 22 communicates with the other adjacent car by an intercirculation, access to which can possibly be achieved by a door 25.
  • the access platform 22 advantageously includes a fitted area 26, such as a luggage compartment. It is connected to the lower level 4 by a staircase 28 arranged in the longitudinal direction.
  • the lower level 4 comprises a low passenger room 30 extending over most of the length of the car 2 up to a bogie 10 of the car 2.
  • the space 31 available above the bogie in the vehicle is occupied by technical equipment of the vehicle, such as an air conditioning unit for example.
  • the low passenger room 30 opens from a single end onto a low access platform 32, through an access opening 34 possibly provided with a door.
  • the low passenger room 30 is blind, that is to say it only has one open end for the passage of passengers.
  • the low access platform 32 has laterally on each side of the car 2 an access door 35 allowing transfer from the outside to the inside of the car 2 and vice versa.
  • the low access platform 32 connects with the low passenger room 30 via the single access opening 34 of the lower level 4.
  • the lower access platform 32 is connected by the staircase 28 to the access platform 22 of the upper level 6.
  • the low passenger room 30 comprises as illustrated in the figure 2 a row 36 of seats for able-bodied people and a row 37 of locations for people with reduced mobility, including one or more areas reserved for people in wheelchairs.
  • the two rows 36 and 37 define a central low circulation 38. They form rows of seats on either side of the circulation 38.
  • a toilet cell 42 occupies the entire width of the car 2 and is at the bottom of the low passenger room 30, opposite the low access platform 32 and the single access opening 34.
  • At least one location 41B for accommodating a wheelchair and its occupant seated on the wheelchair and possibly at least one seat 41A for people with reduced mobility or the person accompanying a passenger in a wheelchair.
  • a 41A seat for people with reduced mobility typically has a larger access space than conventional seats and mobile or removable equipment.
  • Locations 41B are free areas on the ground allowing a person to be accommodated in their wheelchair for the entire journey without them having to leave the wheelchair.
  • a wheelchair storage area 44 is located in the immediate vicinity of the toilet cell 42 within the lower passenger room 30.
  • a sliding door 46 makes the connection between the lower passenger room 30 and the toilet cell 42. It is provided in the transverse front partition separating the toilet cell from the passenger room. It is eccentric in relation to the longitudinal axis of the train and thus opens into a corner of the toilet cell 42. This door is controlled for opening and closing using push buttons located on the toilet cell 42 and near the cell to be accessible by a person in a wheelchair once in front of the cell door.
  • a toilet bowl 48 rests on a bottom partition of the toilet cell 42.
  • the bottom partition is a transverse partition of the train opposite the door 46.
  • the toilet bowl 48 is connected to a water storage module 50 ( clear water and waste).
  • the toilet bowl 48 is located in the corner opposite the corner towards which the sliding door 46 is provided.
  • An air extraction system 52 located on a side wall of the toilet cell 42 makes it possible to renew the air, placing the toilet cell 42 in slight depression relative to the lower passenger room 30.
  • a sink 54 is provided on the same side as the toilet bowl 48 relative to the longitudinal axis of the train in a corner between the front partition and a side face of the vehicle.
  • the toilet bowl 48, the water storage module 50, the air extraction system 52 and the sink 54 are placed on the partitions of the toilet cell 42 in order to define a central circular area of gyration 56 of greater diameter or equal to 1.5 meters within the toilet cell 42 allowing people in wheelchairs to maneuver properly.
  • the railway car 2 according to the invention therefore very effectively integrates the toilet cell 42 occupying the entire width of the car 2 and placed at the bottom of the low passenger room 30 opposite the single opening 34.
  • This arrangement allows both the toilet cell 42 to have a central circular area of gyration 56 of diameter greater than or equal to 1.5 meters making it possible to comply with regulatory requirements in terms of sizing and at the same time to limit the impact on passenger circulation on board car 2.
