  • Publication number: 20220080809
    Abstract: A refrigeration arrangement for traction vehicles includes a first closed circuit configured as a compression refrigeration machine containing a refrigerant as a first carrier medium, evaporator and condenser. The evaporator absorbs heat into the first circuit. The condenser transfers heat from the first circuit. The first circuit is coupled, via the evaporator, to a closed second circuit containing a liquid second carrier medium for heat transport. The second circuit, for cooling, takes heat and transfers it to the second carrier medium. The heat is conveyed, by the second carrier medium, to the evaporator for transfer to the first circuit. The first circuit is coupled, via the condenser, to a closed third circuit containing a liquid third carrier medium for heat transport. The third circuit causes heat from the first circuit, transferred into the third circuit by the condenser, to be transferred to surroundings with heat from traction systems.

  • Publication number: 20210261171
    Abstract: A driver's cab for an interoperable rail vehicle has a front window and a seat arrangement with two seats for operating personnel. A standard field of view is defined for each of the seats. The standard fields of view overlap at least partially in the projection thereof onto the front window. There is also described a rail vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20210197874
    Abstract: An assembly monitors exterior regions of a rail vehicle. In the region of the front side of the rail vehicle, a driver's cab is arranged, which driver's cab has a driver's cab field of view in a first direction of travel. A first lateral region has a first camera system oriented in the direction of travel, which optically captures an angular range along the first lateral region as a first lateral field of view. A second lateral region has a second camera system oriented in the direction of travel, which captures an angular range along the second lateral region as a second lateral field of view. The first and second camera systems are connected to a display device so that image series of the lateral fields of view in the first direction of travel are displayed to the traction vehicle driver in addition to the drivers cab field of view.

  • Patent number: 10053116
    Abstract: An operator compartment of a rail vehicle includes two front windows separated by a connection beam, a track monitoring camera attached in a lower region of the connection beam by a fastening device, and a front window roll-up sun shield which can be drawn in the interior of the operator compartment and has guides running along both sides of the front windows. The guides have lower retaining devices. In order to allow a comparably simple attachment of the roll-up sun shield and the track monitoring camera in the operator compartment, a longitudinal member is attached to a lower region of the connection beam. The longitudinal member retains the fastening device, has mutually opposite guides and has the lower retaining devices for the roll-up sun shield. An assembly device for a track camera and a front window roll-up sun shield of a rail vehicle is also provided.
