  • Patent number: 10836408
    Abstract: A vehicle having a wagon body which is supported on at least one running gear, wherein the wagon body defines a vehicle longitudinal direction, a vehicle transverse direction and a vehicle height direction. The wagon body has a body section and an adjacent head section. The head section has an outer skin and a flow separation unit for reducing sensitivity of the vehicle to crosswind. The flow separation unit comprises a roof-like protrusion formed by the outer skin. The roof-like protrusion has a first roof section, a second roof section, and a ridge section forming a transition between the first roof section and the second roof section. The first roof section and the second roof section run inclined to one another such that, the ridge section forms a flow separation edge for the air flow.

  • Patent number: 9126603
    Abstract: A vehicle component includes first and second surfaces, in a first travel direction of the vehicle. The first surface is exposed to an air flow having a local main flow direction. In a region of a recess on the vehicle, the first surface forms a flow separation edge where the air flow is deflected from the first surface. The recess is delimited by a leading first wall facing the local main flow direction and a trailing second wall. The flow separation edge extends transversely to the local main flow direction over a majority of a transverse dimension of the recess. In the local main flow direction, the second surface borders on the flow separation edge and forms a part of the first wall. The second surface is disposed so that it is inclined like a chamfer about an acute angle of inclination relative to the local main flow direction.
