Rail vehicle with an air-tight supply duct containing bonded components

Abstract

A rail vehicle includes a raised roof region, a shell or body shell structure, and at least one air-tight supply duct in the raised roof region. The supply duct includes at least one component which is inserted by bonding into the shell or body shell structure.

1 - 10 . (canceled) 
     
     
         11 . A rail vehicle, comprising:
 a raised roof region;   a rail vehicle shell structure; and   at least one air-tight supply duct disposed in said raised roof region, said at least one air-tight supply duct having at least one component inserted into said rail vehicle shell structure by bonding.   
     
     
         12 . The rail vehicle according to  claim 11 , wherein said at least one air-tight supply duct includes an air-conditioning duct. 
     
     
         13 . The rail vehicle according to  claim 11 , wherein said at least one component is connected to said rail vehicle shell structure by a thick-film adhesive having a thickness greater than or equal to 3 mm and less than or equal to 20 mm. 
     
     
         14 . The rail vehicle according to  claim 13 , wherein said thick-film adhesive is an adhesive based on polyurethane having a shearing strength greater than or equal to 1.5 N/mm 2  and less than or equal to 20 N/mm 2  after hardening. 
     
     
         15 . The rail vehicle according to  claim 11 , wherein said at least one component is selected from light metal cast components or composite fiber plastics materials. 
     
     
         16 . The rail vehicle according to  claim 11 , wherein said at least one component is an aluminum cast component. 
     
     
         17 . The rail vehicle according to  claim 11 , wherein said at least one component has an opening formed therein being oriented substantially orthogonally relative to a longitudinal axis of the rail vehicle. 
     
     
         18 . The rail vehicle according to  claim 11 , wherein said at least one component has spacer elements forming a defined spacing between said at least one component and a surface of said rail vehicle shell structure. 
     
     
         19 . The rail vehicle according to  claim 18 , wherein said spacer elements are configured to receive connection elements. 
     
     
         20 . A method for producing a rail vehicle, the method comprising the following steps:
 providing a raised roof region and a rail vehicle shell structure;   providing at least one air-tight supply duct in the raised roof region; and   inserting at least one component of the at least one air-tight supply duct into the rail vehicle shell structure by bonding.
