COLLISION ENERGY ABSORBER FOR RAILWAY VEHICLE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a collision energy absorber for a railway vehicle that can achieve high effective compressibility.SOLUTION: A collision energy absorber 1A for a railway vehicle includes a first energy absorbing body 2 and a second energy absorbing body 3 that are aligned in a vehicle longitudinal direction by interposing an intermediate plate 4. The first energy absorbing body 2 incorporates multiple cylindrical bodies 21 arranged so as to be spaced apart from each other. The second energy absorbing body 3 includes at least one partition wall 31 raised on the intermediate plate 4 so as not to be overlapped with the cylindrical body 21 in the vehicle longitudinal direction.
