A device for preventing rail vehicles from riding up includes an energy absorbing element extended in longitudinal direction, having a hollow inside, a fastening side for fastening to one of the rail vehicles and an impact side facing away from the fastening side. A flange fastened to the impact side of the energy absorbing element has an impingement surface facing away from the fastening side. The flange protrudes in at least one vertical direction beyond a contour delimited by the energy absorbing element on the impact side, forming a holding web protruding beyond the energy absorbing element. The device provides effective ride-up protection for identically and differently equipped rail vehicles by equipping a free end of the holding web with at least one vertical stop extending up from the impingement surface, and providing a device for moving the vertical stop upon an impact loading in longitudinal direction. |
