Abstract (en)
A footplate apparatus for a connecting pathway between railroad vehicles has the following structure to prevent a footplate from thrusting into the interior of a vehicle upon collision of the vehicles and causing secondary accidents to passengers: A first footplate 26 is provided on a first vehicle 20, and a second footplate 27 is provided on a second vehicle 21 or a free-end frame. The second footplate 27 is divided in the railroad direction into a base plate 28A and an extension plate 28B which are connected by connector means 40 in such a manner that the connection can be released by a force of not less than a predetermined value. The extension plate 28B includes an engaging member 39, and the first footplate 26 includes a pressing member 36, so that when the distance between the vehicles is abnormally decreased, the pressing member 36 presses against the engaging member 39 to release the connection formed by the connector means 40 and to move the extension plate 28B toward the base plate 28A. <IMAGE>
