Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0243759A2] 1. Device for covering the conduit opening (2) at the front end of a conduit coupling (1), that is housed in the coupling head of an automatic coupling for rail vehicles with a flexible band (4) guided moveably lengthwise and featuring a section (3) which serves as a protection flap that can be placed onto the conduit opening (2) with the coupling head uncoupled for covering it and that can be removed from the conduit opening (2) during coupling processes for clearing it, where the band (4) is guided at least via one deflection point (5) deviating its longitudinal direction, wherein the band (4) is provided at least in the area of section (3) serving as a protection flap with an elastic transverse corrugation (8) running transversally to its longitudinal direction, that is flattened in the band portions located in the area of the deflection points (5) and wherein the section (3) of the band (4) serving as a protection flap is retainable by its inherent strength in front of the conduit opening (2).
