Railway applications - Railway rolling stock - Buffers

This document defines the requirements for buffers with 105 mm, 110 mm and 150 mm stroke for vehicles or units which use buffers and screw coupling. It covers the functionality, interfaces and testing procedures, including pass fail criteria, for buffers.
NOTE 1   Typically, buffers with a stroke of 105 mm are used on freight wagons and locomotives, buffers with a stroke of 110 mm are used on coaches and locomotives and buffers with a stroke of 150 mm are used on freight wagons.
It defines the different categories of buffers, the space envelope, static and dynamic characteristics and energy absorption.
It defines the static and dynamic characteristics of the elastic systems.
It also defines the requirements for buffers with integrated crash elements (crashworthy buffers) for tank wagons for dangerous goods.
The requirements of this document also apply to buffers of locomotives and passenger coaches which are bound to meet the crashworthiness requirements of EN 15227 for normal service only. The properties for the energy absorbing function are defined in EN 15227 and the requirements specified in Clause 7 for tank wagons for dangerous goods are not applicable to the buffers of these locomotives and passenger coaches.
Diagonal buffers are excluded from this document.
For the crashworthy buffers of locomotives, cab cars or passenger coaches according to EN 15227, and tank wagons for dangerous goods or buffers which form part of a combined system consisting of a special buffer and a deformation element, interchangeability with freight wagon buffers is not required, and therefore the requirements of 5.3 (Buffer dimensions) do not apply, those of 5.4 (Mechanical characteristics of buffers) and 5.6 (Marking) apply with restrictions.
NOTE 2   For tank wagons subjected to dangerous goods regulation see [35].

Bahnanwendungen - Schienenfahrzeuge - Puffer

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Anforderungen an Puffer mit 105 mm, 110 mm und 150 mm Hub für Fahrzeuge und Einheiten fest, die Puffer und Schraubenkupplungen verwenden. Sie umfasst die Funktionsmerkmale, Schnittstellen und Prüfverfahren einschließlich der Abnahmekriterien für Puffer.
ANMERKUNG 1   Üblicherweise werden Puffer mit einem Hub von 105 mm für Güterwagen und Lokomotiven, Puffer mit einem Hub von 110 mm für Reisezugwagen und Lokomotiven und Puffer mit einem Hub von 150 mm für Güterwagen genutzt.
Sie definiert die einzelnen Pufferkategorien, den erforderlichen Hüllraum (Freiräume), statische und dynamische Merkmale und die Energieaufnahme.
Außerdem werden die statischen und dynamischen Merkmale für elastische Systeme (Federsysteme) festgelegt.
Weiterhin legt diese Norm die Anforderungen an in Puffer integrierte Crashelemente (kollisionssichere Puffer) für die Kesselwagen fest, die der Gefahrstoffverordnung unterliegen.
Die Anforderungen dieses Dokuments gelten auch für Puffer von Lokomotiven und Reisezugwagen, die die Anforderungen zur Kollisionssicherheit der EN 15227 nur im normalen Betrieb erfüllen müssen. Die Eigenschaften der Energieaufnahmefunktion sind in EN 15227 festgelegt und die Anforderungen, die in Abschnitt 7 für Kesselwagen für gefährliche Güter festgelegt sind, gelten nicht für Puffer von genannten Lokomotiven und Reisezugwagen.
Diagonalpuffer sind von diesem Dokument ausgenommen.
Für kollisionssichere Puffer von Lokomotiven, Steuerwagen oder Reisezugwagen nach EN 15227 und Kesselwagen für gefährliche Güter oder Puffer, die Teil eines kombinierten Systems aus einem Spezialpuffer und einem Verformungselement sind, ist die Austauschbarkeit mit Güterwagenpuffern nicht erforderlich und deshalb gelten die Anforderungen in und 5.3 (Pufferabmessungen) nicht, und die in 5.4 (mechanische Puffereigenschaften) und 5.6 (Kennzeichnung) nur eingeschränkt.
ANMERKUNG 2   Für Kesselwagen, die der Gefahrstoffverordnung unterliegen, siehe [35].

Applications ferroviaires - Wagons - Tampons

Le présent document définit les exigences relatives aux tampons de 105 mm, 110 mm et 150 mm de course pour les véhicules ou les unités qui utilisent des tampons et des tendeurs d'attelage. Il couvre les fonctionnalités, les interfaces et les procédures d'essai des tampons, y compris les critères de réussite ou d'échec.
NOTE 1   Habituellement, les tampons à course de 105 mm sont utilisés sur les wagons de marchandises et les locomotives, les tampons à course de 110 mm sont utilisés sur les voitures et les locomotives et les tampons à course de 150 mm sont utilisés sur les wagons de marchandises.
Il définit les différentes catégories de tampons, l'enveloppe d'encombrement, les caractéristiques statiques et dynamiques et l'absorption d'énergie.
Il définit également les caractéristiques statiques et dynamiques des systèmes élastiques.
Il définit les exigences relatives aux tampons intégrant des éléments de protection en cas de collision (tampons anti-crash) pour les wagons citernes transportant des marchandises dangereuses.
Les exigences du présent document s'appliquent aussi aux tampons des locomotives et voitures voyageurs qui sont couplées pour satisfaire aux exigences d'aptitude à la collision de l'EN 15227, uniquement en utilisation de service normal. Les propriétés de la fonction « absorption d'énergie » sont définies dans l'EN 15227 et les exigences énoncées à l'Article 7 pour les wagons citernes transportant des marchandises dangereuses ne sont pas applicables aux tampons de ces locomotives et voitures voyageurs.
Les tampons diagonaux ne sont pas couverts par le présent document.
Pour les tampons anti-crash des locomotives, des voitures de réversibilité ou des voitures voyageurs selon l'EN 15227, et pour les wagons citernes transportant des marchandises dangereuses ou des tampons qui forment une partie d'un système combiné constitué d'un tampon spécial et d'un élément de déformation, l'interchangeabilité avec des tampons de wagons de marchandises n'est pas exigée. Par conséquent, les exigences de 5.3 (Dimensions du tampon) ne s'appliquent pas, celles de 5.4 (Caractéristiques mécaniques des tampons) et de 5.6 (Marquage) s'appliquent avec restrictions.
NOTE 2   Pour des wagons citernes soumis au règlement concernant le transport de marchandises dangereuses, voir [41].
Les dispositions qui vont au-delà du domaine d'application du présent document peuvent être fixées par accord dans la spécification technique. La spécification technique n'est pas un document obligatoire.

Železniške naprave - Železniška vozila - Odbojniki

Ta dokument določa zahteve za odbojnike s 105-mm, 110-mm in 150-mm hodom za vozila ali enote, ki uporabljajo odbojnike in vijačno spenjačo. Zajema funkcionalnost, vmesnike in preskusne postopke za odbojnike, vključno z merili za uspešno/neuspešno opravljen preskus.
OPOMBA 1:   Običajno se odbojniki s 105-mm hodom uporabljajo pri tovornih vagonih in lokomotivah, odbojniki s 110-mm hodom se uporabljajo pri potniških vagonih in lokomotivah, odbojniki s 150-mm hodom pa se uporabljajo pri tovornih vagonih.
Opredeljuje različne kategorije odbojnikov, prostorske okvire, statične in dinamične lastnosti ter absorpcijo energije.
Opredeljuje statične in dinamične lastnosti elastičnih sistemov.
Določa tudi zahteve za odbojnike z vgrajenimi elementi proti trčenju (odbojnike, odporne proti trku) za vagone s cisterno za prevoz nevarnih snovi.
Zahteve tega dokumenta veljajo tudi za odbojnike lokomotiv in potniških vagonov, ki morajo ustrezati zahtevam glede odpornosti na trke v skladu s standardom EN 15227 samo pri običajnih pogojih uporabe. Lastnosti funkcije za absorpcijo energije so opredeljene v standardu EN 15227, pri čemer zahteve, podane v točki 7 za vagone s cisterno za prevoz nevarnih snovi, ne veljajo za odbojnike lokomotiv in potniških vagonov.
Ta dokument ne zajema diagonalnih odbojnikov.
Za odbojnike lokomotiv, vagonov s potniško kabino ali potniških vagonov v skladu s standardom EN 15227 ter vagone s cisterno za prevoz nevarnih snovi ali odbojnike, ki so del kombiniranega sistema, sestavljenega iz posebnega odbojnika in deformacijskega elementa, ni potrebna zamenljivost z odbojniki tovornih vagonov, zato zahteve iz točke 5.3 (Dimenzije odbojnikov) ne veljajo, zahteve iz točk 5.4 (Mehanske lastnosti odbojnikov) in 5.6 (Označevanje) pa veljajo z omejitvami.
OPOMBA 2:   Za vagone s cisterno, za katere velja predpis o nevarnih snoveh, glej [35].
