Some embodiments of the present disclosure provide an energy-absorbing anti-creeper and a train vehicle with the energy-absorbing anti-creeper. The energy-absorbing anti-creeper includes: a guiding cylinder, an energy-absorbing material, a collision mechanism and a discharging mechanism for discharging the energy-absorbing material being arranged at the first end of the guiding cylinder. A first end of the guiding cylinder is configured to be in assembly connection with a train. The energy-absorbing material is filled in the guiding cylinder. The collision mechanism is arranged at a second end of the guiding cylinder. The first end of the guiding cylinder and the second end of the guiding cylinder are two opposite ends of the guiding cylinder.

An energy absorbing device for subway vehicle includes a movable anti-climber, a fixed anti-climber, an energy absorbing honeycomb, at least one collapse tube, two sliding-groove assemblies and two guide sliding rails. As the first stage energy absorbing unit of the total structure, the energy absorbing honeycomb directly bears the collision impact transferred from the movable anti-climber. Through the deformation of the energy absorbing honeycomb itself under pressure, the collision kinetic energy transfers into internal energy of deformation and heat, thus realizing the energy absorbing buffering. As the second stage energy absorbing buffering unit, the at least one collapse tube further absorbs the collision energy, thus further buffering and protecting the underframe of the vehicle body, as well as ensuring that the impact energy performs a multistage and serial operation according to a predetermined direction and sequence, thereby ensuring the reliability of operation of the energy absorbing device.

A rail vehicle includes a device compartment for accommodating a device, a protective flap for protecting the device compartment, and a decorative flap at least partially hiding or covering the protective flap. The decorative flap has a lower degree of rigidity or stiffness than the protective flap.

The invention relates to a head module for a rail vehicle, said head module being suitable to be detachably fixed to the front face of a subsequent railcar unit without additional underframe. The head module consists of an inner and an outer shell and includes three systems which convert, in the event of a crash, the collision energy into a deformation one after the other or simultaneously and substantially independently of another.
