  • Patent number: 5601034
    Abstract: A rolling stock fitting structure has laminated panels, each formed by sandwiching a core member between a pair of face plates, and channel members are placed between the face plates around the periphery of the panels and possibly in the interior thereof to provide structural strength. The laminated panels, which may be shaped to conform to a particular design, are joined and welded together to form a rolling stock body. The channels are provided with holding members for holding equipment, so that the load of the equipment on the holding member can be distributed through the channel member to the laminated panel, thereby securing the equipment reliably.

  • Patent number: 5595123
    Abstract: A rolling stock fitting structure has laminated panels, each formed by sandwiching a core member between a pair of face plates, and framing shapes are placed between the face plates around the periphery of the panels and possibly in the interior thereof to provide structural strength. The laminated panels, which may be shaped to conform to a particular design, are joined and welded together to form a rolling stock body. The framing shapes are provided with a support shape for holding equipment, the support shape being mounted on a rod fixed to the framing shape, so that the load of the equipment on the holding member can be distributed through the framing shapes to the laminated panel, thereby securing the equipment reliably.
