    摘要: A convolute for a bellows of a gangway, the convolute comprising a first rim and a second rim arranged next to the first rim; a sheet like convolute material that extends from the first rim to the second rim; whereby in an operational position of the convolute, the convolute material takes up a trough-shaped form between the first rim and the second rim; a drainage hole is defined in the convolute material; and a closure closes the drainage hole. The convolute further comprises a drainage control band, whereby the closure forms part of the drainage control band or is attached to the drainage control band, whereby a first band point of the drainage control band is attached to or rests on a first convolute point, whereby the first convolute point is located on the first rim or on the convolute material, but closer to the first rim than to the second rim, and a second band point of the drainage control band is attached to or rests on a second convolute point, whereby the second convolute point is located on the second rim or on the convolute material, but closer to the second rim than to the first rim. The length L1 of a minimum length band path, the minimum length band path being the path with the shortest length that can be taken from the first band point to the second band point while always staying in contact with or leading through the drainage control band, is smaller than the length L2 of a minimum length convolute path, the minimum length convolute path being the path with the shortest length that can be taken from the first convolute point to the second convolute point while always staying in contact with or leading through the convolute material.

    摘要: The invention relates to a middle hoop system for a vehicle joint. The vehicle joint is arranged between a vehicle front part and a vehicle rear part of an articulated vehicle, such as for example of an articulated bus, and forms a passage (24) between the vehicle front part and the vehicle rear part. The middle hoop system comprises a middle hoop (12) and a cable guide between the vehicle front part and the vehicle rear part. The middle hoop (12) surrounds the passage (24). The cable guide is arranged above the passage (24). According to the invention, for the cable guide, a leaf spring (14) is provided which extends from the vehicle front part to the vehicle rear part. By means of the leaf spring, cables (16) can be guided between the vehicle front part and the vehicle rear part over the entire length of the leaf spring (14). Undefined movements of the cables when the vehicle front part and the vehicle rear part move relative to one another are eliminated.

    摘要: A railcar diaphragm is described having a first and a second plate assembly, a bellows assembly, and a spring assembly. The first plate assembly is coupled to a railcar. The second plate assembly is configured to contact another railcar. The bellows is disposed between first and second plate assemblies. The spring assembly includes a leaf spring and a pivot member coupled to the leaf spring. The first and second plate assemblies are coupled through the spring assembly. The spring assembly has a first and a second configuration based on whether the railcar is engaged to another railcar. The spring assembly and the second plate assembly can collectively swivel about a centerpoint associated with the pivot member when the spring assembly is in the second configuration and the railcar is in a curved portion of a track.
