Abstract: The invention relates to a device for pivoting one or more front flaps (1a, 1b) of a track-guided vehicle, in particular a rail vehicle. To achieve that the front flap can be opened and closed without friction and that it does not have any visible joints, the invention provides that the device comprises at least one carrier element (2) which, on the one hand, is connected with the front flap (1a, 1b) and, on the other hand, with the vehicle undercarriage, wherein the carrier element (2) can be pivoted in the horizontal plane relative to the vehicle undercarriage, and which is designed to change, during the pivoting, the front flap (1a, 1b) from a closed position into an opened position and vice versa. Furthermore, the device comprises an activation element (3) which, on the one hand, is connected with the at least one carrier element (2) and, on the other hand, with the vehicle undercarriage for pivoting the at least one carrier element (2) relative to the vehicle undercarriage.

Abstract: The invention relates to a vehicle front-end module having a vehicle front-end structure (100) for mounting to the front end of a rail-borne vehicle, in particular a railway vehicle, wherein the vehicle front-end structure (100) is wholly composed of structural elements made from fiber composite or fiber composite sandwich material. The structural elements forming the vehicle front-end structure (100) comprise first structural elements (10, 10?, 11, 12, 12?, 14, 15, 16) which are configured and directly connected to one another so as to form a substantially deformation-resistant, self-supporting front-end structure designed to accommodate a vehicle driver's cab (101).

Abstract: An actuating magnet is disclosed comprising an actuating means (2) for exerting a tensile or pressure force on a target element that is to be moved, switched, or latched or unlatched, and comprising a latching means for latching the actuating means (2) in a desired position, the latching means having a locking magnet (11) for locking and unlocking the actuating means (2).

Abstract: A joint arrangement for connecting a drawbar to a carriage includes a push/pull device for the transmission of pushing and pulling forces arranged at the carriage end of the drawbar. The push/pull device comprises a mid-piece connected to the carriage side end of the drawbar, extending the drawbar in the longitudinal direction thereof which extends through an opening provided in the baseplate. A front spring plate and a rear spring plate are provided on the mid-piece with a front spring element between the front spring plate and the baseplate in the drawbar longitudinal direction and a corresponding rear spring element is provided between the baseplate and the rear spring plate.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an automatic central buffer coupling for a multi-membered vehicle having a coupling head and a signal transmission device for transmitting signals between a first and a second car body. The invention integrates a signal transmission device into the central buffer coupling. The invention includes a coupling element and a counter-coupling element integrated into respective contact plates of adjacent coupling heads such that the face side of the coupling element is arranged opposite the face side of the counter-coupling element. The coupling element and the counter-coupling element each have an antenna member that includes a disc monopole antenna configured to transmit data in the GHz frequency range.
