Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP6151104
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a railway vehicle capable of reducing an air resistance while retaining a living space.SOLUTION: In the case where an arrival at a platform 102 is detected, a height adjustment mechanism 20 is actuated to feed air to an air spring 10. As a result, a floor face F of a gate 6 of a vehicle body 4 is set higher than the floor face F of the gate 6 of the vehicle body 4 of the case of running between stations. As a result, the height from a track bed 100 of a running railway vehicle 1 to the upper face of the vehicle body 4 can be made lower than the height from the track bed 100 of the stopping railway vehicle 1 to the upper face of the vehicle body 4. Without reducing the car body section, the sectional area in the vehicle height direction to exert an influence on the air resistance can be reduced to reduce the air resistance while retaining a living space.
