Vehicle construction esp. rail vehicle

摘要

The vehicle construction comprises a body with a base (1), a roof (2), two longitudinal walls joining the base and the roof and at least four wheels connected to the base. The base, roof and longitudinal walls comprise sandwich panels which are joined to one another at their longitudinal edges. The thickness of the sandwich panel forming the base is of the same order of magnitude as the thickness of the roof or a sandwich panel forming a longitudinal wall (3). The sandwich panels of base, roof and longitudinal walls form a bending- and torsion-resistant tube. The thickness of the sandwich panel forming the base is between 1.5 and 2.5 times as great as the thickness of the sandwich panel forming the roof or of the sandwich panel forming a longitudinal wall.
