Coach body of railway vehicle
First Claim
1. A coach body of a rail vehicle, comprising horizontal and vertical walls, said horizontal walls serving to form both a floor and a ceiling, while said vertical walls forming side walls, said vertical walls having cutouts for at least one window and one boarding door, said horizontal and vertical walls being formed by half-modules of fiber-reinforced plastic divided sectionally crosswise to a longitudinal axis of the coach body, each two of these half-modules which are complimentary to one another and are joined in a force-transmitting way at said horizontal walls which meet in a middle of the vehicle forming one longitudinal section of the coach body, and a length of the coach body being formed accordingly by a force-transmitting connection of a number of said longitudinal sections at abutting points extending all the way around in transverse direction of the vehicle, said longitudinal sections including two adjacent longitudinal sections which extend all the way around in a transverse direction of the coach body and have an abutting point formed for securing accessory parts of the vehicle selected from the group consisting of a partition, a passenger seat, and a support pole.

Abstract
A coach body of a rail vehicle has horizontal and vertical walls, the horizontal walls serving to form both a floor and a ceiling, while the vertical walls forming side walls, the vertical walls having cutouts for at least one window and one boarding door, the horizontal and vertical walls being formed by modules of fiber-reinforced plastic divided sectionally crosswise to a longitudinal axis of the coach body, each two of these hand-modules which are complimentary to one another and are joined in a force-transmitting way at the horizontal walls which meet in a middle of the vehicle forming one longitudinal section of the coach body, and a length of the coach body being formed accordingly by a force-transmitting connection of a number of the longitudinal sections at abutting points extending all the way around in transverse direction of the vehicle.
