<p>#CMT# #/CMT# A deformation tube (3) is integrated into an energy-absorbing unit (10) so that impact forces are transmitted in the longitudinal direction of the unit by a force flow from a transfer of force running through the tube and the base plate (2) and connecting plate are rigid in a longitudinal direction of the unit up to a definable amount of energy. When the definable amount of energy is exceeded, the plates are moved in the longitudinal direction by simultaneous plastic deformation of the tube. The tube is braced between the plates by a tensioning element connecting the plates. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Side buffer for a railborne vehicle. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# By employing the deformation tube braced without play between the base and connecting plates, it is possible to exactingly adapt the characteristic of the tube to individual applications. It is possible to predefine the activation force and the maximum amount of energy absorbable by the energy-absorbing unit, and explicitly adapt the same to specific applications. Thus, not only the activation force but also the sequence of events to the energy absorption is predefinable. Providing a deformation tube yields an energy-absorbing device that enables maximum energy absorption at the lowest possible space requirements. By utilizing a deformation tube that deforms by cross-sectional expanding, it is not necessary to provide an additional space for expelling the plastically deformed deformation tube. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows the perspective view of the energy-absorbing units and additional shock-absorbing stage for a side buffer. 2 : Base plate 3 : Deformation tube 10 : Energy-absorbing unit 100 : Side buffer 102 : Connecting flange.</p> |
