End wall sealing for passenger crossover in railway vehicles and corresponding method of manufacturing

摘要

The beaded rims (14, 15) have an elastic rotatable component (17) in an interior and extending radial to a longitudinal direction of the rims. The component contacts with its ends of an opposite inner wall area (28) and fixed at the rims, such that the spring force of the components loads front sides (26) of the rim of a carriage in a direction of the rim at another carriage. The component is designed as a traction element, a pressure element, spring or a small textile, where the component with a fixing part (18) is designed as one piece from plastic material. An independent claim is also included for a method for manufacturing tube-like formed elastic beaded rims.
