A rail vehicle for public transport includes at least one door for separating two inner spaces of the rail vehicle and a lintel for the door. The lintel has at least one electronic information system for passengers.

A bogie includes a bogie frame, a first running wheel and a second running wheel, at least one driving device, a first horizontal wheel, a second horizontal wheel, a first horizontal safety wheel connected to the first horizontal wheel and moving in synchronization with the first horizontal wheel, and a second horizontal safety wheel connected to the second horizontal wheel and moving in synchronization with the second horizontal wheel. The bogie frame has a straddle recess suitable for straddling a rail. The first running wheel and the second running wheel are pivotably mounted onto the bogie frame respectively and are coaxially spaced apart. The at least one driving device is mounted onto the bogie frame and located between the first running wheel and the second running wheel to drive the first running wheel and the second running wheel.

The present invention is to provide a vehicle door switch that is capable of adjusting the amount of movement made by a rod with ease and a method for attaching a vehicle door switch. A vehicle door switch includes a rod configured to move as a door is closed, a detecting unit configured to output a detection signal when one of ends of the rod has moved by a predetermined distance or more, and a limiting unit configured to limit the amount of movement made by the rod within a range where the detecting unit outputs the detection signal.

An opening and closing apparatus with a lock that is provided is capable of safely and promptly closing a sliding door, and also easily performing unlocking with a simple configuration. In an opening and closing apparatus with a lock for opening and closing sliding doors that are provided with elastic members at their door leading ends, output of an electric motor is transmitted to a rack-and-pinion mechanism or a lock mechanism. A control unit controls the electric motor such that a closing operation is performed, the closing operation operates the rack-and-pinion mechanism so as to move the sliding doors to a fully closed position and then displacing a link mechanism in a lock mechanism from an unlocking position to a locking position. Furthermore, the control unit controls the electric motor so as to reduce the output of the electric motor at a predetermined intermediate time point during the closing operation.

A sliding door has at least one door leaf that can be brought into an open and a closed position by sliding the door leaf. The sliding door is provided with at least one spring which, in the closed position of the siding door, presses a sealing lip of a seal mounted on the door leaf against a sealing surface on the frame. The sealing lip thereby seals the sliding door from the outside.

The invention relates to a method for distinguishing, detecting and counting persons and/or objects in facilities and/or vehicles for conveying persons and/or goods, with the method steps: emitting radiation from a radiation source, deflecting the radiation with an element for deflecting the radiation, generating a light pattern in a detection region, detecting the radiation backscattered by persons and/or objects situated in the detection region in a radiation detector, and counting the persons and/or objects in a counting region, wherein the counting region is arranged in a region between 30 cm in front of and 30 cm behind an entrance to facilities and/or to the vehicle for conveying persons and/or objects. The invention also relates to a corresponding device for performing the method.

An operating mechanism for plug-type rail car doors includes first and second links connected to respective rotatable first support bars of the door. The links include respective elongated slots at least partially overlapping with one another, wherein each slot receives a respective cam. The cams are rotatable together about a rotational axis which is eccentrically arranged relative to both cams. An actuating lever is connected to the cams to enable an operator to rotate the cams about the rotational axis. The actuating lever is movable such that the first and second links are retracted relative to one another to simultaneously rotate the first and second support bars, and such that the first and second links are extended relative to one another to simultaneously counter-rotate the first and second support bars. A gear train may be provided between the actuating lever and the cams to reduce the necessary manual operating torque.
