A guiding device for a door system, in particular a sliding or pivot sliding door system of a public transport vehicle, includes: a longitudinal profile formed from a first material for attachment to a door portal, which has a guiding track, which is U-shaped in cross section, with a bottom surface and two side walls extending at right angles therefrom, a slider, which at least partially reaches into the guiding track and is supported on rolling members in a linearly movable manner in the guiding track, wherein a bearing member formed from a second material is disposed in the guiding track, which extends along the guiding track and on which the rolling members supporting the slider roll during a linear movement of the slider, the second material forming the bearing member is harder than the first material forming the longitudinal profile.

The invention relates to a device for sealing at least one door leaf for a rail vehicle said device having at least one sliding element which is designed to move the door leaf in a z direction of the rail vehicle when it is close to a closed position in order to force a sealing element of the door leaf against a sealing counter-element of a portal of the rail vehicle.

A side sliding door of a railway vehicle comprises a door body (100), and a driving device for the opening and closing of a doorway. An outer surface of the door body (100) is flush with an outer surface of the vehicle body when the door body (100) is closed. A movement track of the door body is arranged as an arc-plus-linear reciprocating motion. The outer surface of the door body is flush with the outer surface of the vehicle body when the door body is closed, so that there exists no height difference between the vehicle body and a doorway of the side sliding door. Snow accumulation at doorway under an extreme cold working condition is avoided, and then the risk of a door body being frozen is reduced.

A method for state-based maintenance of an access device of a vehicle, in particular of a public transport vehicle, wherein the access device includes a moveable element and an electric drive for moving the moveable element and is attached to the vehicle. The drive is controlled with control signals, wherein actual state signals for describing the state are generated based on a detected state of the access device. The control signals are applied to a physical simulation model for computationally simulating the access device and determining expected target state signals and wherein based on a comparison between the actual state signals and associated target state signals, a maintenance state of the access device is determined. The simulation model is adjusted based on the comparison between the actual state signals and the associated target state signals.

A flow rate adjusting device of the present invention includes a flow channel member and a valve mechanism. The valve mechanism includes a rod, a knob and a lock mechanism. The lock mechanism is switched by the knob moving in the traverse direction between a prohibited state in which the engaging portion is engaged with the to-be-engaged portion so that the rotation of the rod relative to the flow channel member is prohibited via the knob and a permitted state in which the engagement between the engaging portion and the to-be-engaged portion is undone so that the rod is permitted to rotate relative to the flow channel member.

A door operator system for moving a door of a vehicle between open and closed positions includes a track defined in a base, the track having a curved portion at an end thereof; a drive bracket configured to suspend the door from the base, the drive bracket being slidably movable along the track between an open position and a closed position adjacent to the curved portion; a drive mechanism configured to cause movement of the drive bracket between the open and closed positions; and a locking system configured to retain the drive bracket in the closed position. When the drive bracket is in the closed position, the curved portion engages a cam follower of the locking system to retain the cam follower in a locked position that is over center with respect to a plane perpendicular to the track and a plane parallel to the track.

The door actuator generally has a receiving structure having a door carriage path; a first coil assembly and a second coil assembly both being mounted to the receiving structure along a common coil assembly plane and being longitudinally spaced from one another along the door carriage path by a spacing distance; and a door carriage being slidingly received by the receiving structure, the door carriage having a plurality of alternate-pole magnets provided along a magnet plane being parallel and spaced apart from the coil assembly plane, the first and second coil assemblies being operable to move the door carriage back and forth between the two ends of the rail.

A vehicle, in particular a rail vehicle, has cladding modules for cladding a body shell-side vehicle lateral wall and/or vehicle roof. The cladding modules, or at least a majority of the cladding modules of the vehicle, either have a first width or a second width which is smaller than the first width, and the difference between the first and second width corresponds to half of the width of at least one partition module which is mounted in the vehicle and which is mounted between two of the cladding modules or is arranged on an interface between two directly adjacent cladding modules, in particular the partition module is placed in front of the interface when seen in the vehicle transverse direction and covers the interface.

According to some embodiments, a discharge door locking system for a railcar discharge door comprises a lock piston configured to move between a first position (not engaged with an operating beam coupled to a discharge door) and a second position (engaged). The locking system comprises a first and second input. Activation of the first input moves the lock piston to the first position, and activation of the second input moves the lock piston to the second position. The first input of the locking system is coupled to a first input of an operating cylinder coupled to the operating beam. The first input of the operating cylinder is configured to move the discharge door to the open position.

A retention and guide assembly for a vehicle door includes a guide track connected to a door panel of the vehicle door. The guide track includes sidewalls that at least partially extend around and define an internal recessed volume. The sidewalls include a first sidewall coupled with the door panel and a second sidewall coupled with and oriented transverse to the first sidewall. The guide track includes a retaining flange that is coupled with and oriented transverse to the second sidewall. The sidewalls and the retaining flange are shaped to receive (within the internal recessed volume) a roller of a control arm extending from a vehicle body. The retaining flange engages the control arm and/or the roller and retain the roller within the internal recessed volume of the guide track between the second sidewall and the door panel of the vehicle door.
