BS EN 15723:2010EN 15723:2010 (E) 4 Introduction To achieve an undisturbed, reliable and safe operation of freight trains it is essential to define common requirements for closing and locking devices of protecting devices of interoperable trains

26、 with respect to e.g. structural requirements, operating characteristics, way of operation, maintenance as well as their handling. BS EN 15723:2010EN 15723:2010 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard applies to new and upgraded freight wagons where an approval is required. These protecting devices are

27、 classified into two types of load and this standard defines the requirements for the durability of the closing and locking devices, their status indication, maintenance and recycling. This standard also defines pass-fail criteria for the dimensioning tests. NOTE Provisions going beyond the scope of

28、 these requirements should be agreed by the contracting parties involved. This standard is not applicable to closing and locking devices which are used to ensure a pressure difference or to retain liquids /liquid payloads. It is not applicable to vehicles which are emptied by pressure, nor is it app

29、licable to loose tarpaulins. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.

31、itions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 aerodynamic forces forces affecting the vehicle and component assemblies by an air stream 3.2 forces from selfmass inertia forces resulting from dynamic forces applied to the protecting (locking) devices 3.3 unl

32、oading door type of door which is subject to the force of the payload (or a proportion of it) NOTE The door should be able to be secured against un-planned opening (Category 2). 3.4 movable device to protect device to protect payload against environmental influences and exterior forces NOTE 1 Loose

33、tarpaulins are not considered as a movable protecting device. EXAMPLES Sliding walls, flaps, rigid sliding hoods and covers, hinged doors, bottom doors. BS EN 15723:2010EN 15723:2010 (E) 6 3.5 closing and locking device device for fixing a movable protecting device in a defined position 3.6 operatin

35、wns. 3.8 applied force or moment body force or moment which acts outwardly from the body NOTE 1 Applied forces or moments are operating forces. NOTE 2 In order to activate an operating element, both static and dynamic forces are applied. 3.9 percentile statement on how many participants of the test

36、group (in percent) are able to summon up the applied force or applied moment NOTE 1 The applied forces or moments stated in the standards always refer to certain percentiles of the test group. NOTE 2 Typical values of percentiles are 1, 5, 15, 50 or 95. Here the difference between 100 and the percen

37、tile value describes the percentage of the test group, which is able to summon up more than the respective applied force or moment. When stating the 85thpercentile this means for instance that 85 % of the test persons are able to carry out the described activity and 15 % will be able to carry out mo

38、re than the described activity. When stating the 15thpercentile this means for instance that 15 % of the test persons are not able to carry out the described activity and 85 % will be able to carry out the described activity. 3.10 types of load classification in two types of loads which are consider

39、ed for the design of closing and locking devices NOTE 1 These loads are either internal forces from the load itself or external forces during travelling. NOTE 2 Examples for when these loads are considered for different door types are shown in Table 1. 3.11 automatic safety device automatic device t

This remains valid while the vehicles are

43、 in a moving train (unless this is part of the procedure for discharging the payload). Wagons fitted with special equipment (automatic discharging, opening roof, etc.) shall have instructions concerning operation of this equipment and the safety precautions to be taken, placed in a prominent positio

44、n and if possible in several languages; these instructions may be accompanied by appropriate pictograms. The closing and locking devices shall be designed to withstand the loads which are caused by the payload under normal, regular conditions and when the payload has been displaced in a foreseeable

45、manner (see Table 1, Category 1). The closing and locking devices shall be designed to withstand the loads which could effect to vehicles during operation. The side doors and the shutters of the ventilation apertures of covered wagons shall be designed to prevent wear and in service stresses causing

46、 deformation and resulting in these elements being ripped or falling off during the shunting process or while the train is moving (particularly during passing of two trains). For all types of covered wagon with sliding side doors, they shall be equipped with suitably dimensioned devices to prevent a

47、ny unintended disengagement. The devices shall limit the vertical play and shall take effect in any operating condition. The forces, which are needed to actuate the closing and locking devices, shall be of a magnitude that can be applied by an operator without additional tools. Exceptions are allowa

48、ble when additional tools are specifically made available or when motor driven systems are used. BS EN 15723:2010EN 15723:2010 (E) 8 For this, locking devices shall be used which indicate their status (open/closed) and they shall be visible by an operator outside the train. 4.2 Strength of side door

49、s and their locking devices, sliding doors and single and multi-leafed doors under transverse loading The doors and their locking devices, when closed and locked, shall withstand a horizontal normal force from the inside of the wagon outwards, representing the forces produced by a shift in the load as well as by aerodynamic forces during operation. No permanent deformation or loss of functionality should occur, either on the
