Abstract (en)
The object of this invention is to provide a railway car body structure and a method of manufacture thereof, which maintain the strength and accuracy of the car body structure while at the same time keeping the body structure light in weight and thereby allows an efficient rigging work. For this purpose,nembers (63) corresponding to the side posts and rafters, which have conventionally been arranged inside the outside sheet of the vehicle body, are incorporated between the surface sheets of the panel. Coupling members (62) are attached to the outer periphery of the panel (60). These members are brazed together to form the panel. In each of the side blocks, underframe block, roof block and end blocks, the panels are prepared, combined and, while in a restrained condition, welded together to form the respective blocks. Next, rigging base plates for mounting equipments and parts are fixed to the surface sheets of each block at specified positions. All the blocks are then assembled into an integral car body structure, with the rigging such as side panels, chairs and luggage shelves mounted on the rigging base plates. With the construction according to this invention, it is possible to realize a block fabricating method and an assembly equipment which ensure high quality, precision and efficiency. <IMAGE>
