Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Anti-climbing device for a rail vehicle includes a baffle plate, wherein a plurality of mutually parallel protruding first formations are arranged along a linear path on the baffle plate, and a plurality of mutually parallel protruding second formations are arranged along a linear path on the baffle plate and are orientated normally with respect to the first formations, where the extent of the second formations over the face of the baffle plate is smaller than the extent of the first formations over the face of the baffle plate, and where the first formations, at intersection locations of the formations, each have a recess in which the extent of the first formation is reduced.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An anti-climbing device for a rail vehicle comprising: a baffle plate; a plurality of mutually parallel protruding first formations arranged along a linear path on the baffle plate; a plurality of mutually parallel protruding second formations arranged on the baffle plate along another linear path and orientated normally with respect to the first formations; wherein an extent of the second formations over a face of the baffle plate is smaller than an extent of the first formations over the face of the baffle plate; and wherein at intersection locations of the first and second formations the first formations each have a recess in which the extent of the first formations is reduced. 2. The anti-climbing device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the extent of the first formation in a region of the recesses is reduced to the extent of the second formations. 3. The anti-climbing device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the extent of the first formations in the region of the recesses is reduced to a lower value than the extent of the second formations. 4. The anti-climbing device as claimed claim 1 , wherein the recesses have a rectangular cross section. 5. The anti-climbing device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the recesses have a rectangular cross section. 6. The anti-climbing device as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the recesses have a rectangular cross section. 7. The anti-climbing device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the recesses have a trapezoidal cross section. 8. The anti-climbing device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the recesses have a trapezoidal cross section. 9. The anti-climbing device as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the recesses have a trapezoidal cross section. 10. The anti-climbing device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the baffle plate is connected to the first and second formations in a non-releasable manner via a welding method. 11. The anti-climbing device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the baffle plate is produced together with the first and second formations in an integral manner via a milling method. 12. The anti-climbing device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the baffle plate is produced together with the first and second formations in an integral manner via a forging method. 13. The anti-climbing device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the baffle plate is produced together with the formations in an integral manner via a casting method. 14. An anti-climbing device for a rail vehicle comprising: a baffle plate; a plurality of mutually parallel protruding first formations arranged along a linear path on the baffle plate; a plurality of mutually parallel protruding second formations arranged on the baffle plate along another linear path and orientated normally with respect to the first formations; wherein an extent of the second formations over a face of the baffle plate is smaller than an extent of the first formations over the face of the baffle plate; wherein at intersection locations of the first and second formations the first formations each have a recess in which the extent of the first formations is reduced; and wherein the extent of the first formation in a region of the recesses is reduced to the extent of the second formations.
