(57) In a gangway cloth, there is provided a gangway cloth which is excellent in a stretching
property, an elongation stress, a tear stress, a light-proofing and a durability,
it is intended to improve a durability of a bottom fabric in the gangway cloth forming
a connecting gangway for a railway vehicle, and it is intended to make a repairing
operation easy and reduce a repairing cost in comparison with the conventional repair,
in the case that the bottom cloth of the gangway cloth is broken. Accordingly, in
the gangway cloth for the railway vehicle, cloth (2) constituted by synthetic fiber
knitted fabric is provided in a stretchy sheet (1) by bonding only a string (3) in
a surface portion thereof by an adhesive agent (5) having a stretching property, and
a string surface of the cloth (2) constituted by the knitted fabric is coated by a
soft type coating material (6) having a stretching property so as not to bury a stitch
(4) of the cloth (2). Further, in the connecting gangway for the railway vehicle,
there is provided an anti-sagging apparatus (26, 27) which arranges diaphragm frames
(17) between front and rear gangway metal frames (15), cylindrically arranges gangway
cloth (7) along an outer periphery of the diaphragm frames (17) and fastens front
and rear ends of the gangway cloth (7) to both of the gangway metal frames (15), thereby
holding a bottom cloth (7a) of the gangway cloth (7) without fixing it to the diaphragm
frames (17). Further, in the connecting gangway for the railway vehicle, the diaphragm
frames (17) are arranged between the front and rear gangway metal frames, the gangway
cloth (7) is cylindrically arranged along the outer periphery of the diaphragm frames
(17), the front and rear ends of the gangway cloth (7) are fastened to both of the
gangway metal frames, the gangway cloth (7) is separately constructed by an upper
gangway cloth (7e) constituted by a top cloth (7c) and side clothes (7d) and a lower
gangway cloth (7g) constituted by the bottom cloth (7a) and side clothes (7f), lower
portions of the side clothes in the upper gangway cloth (7e) and upper portions of
the side clothes (7f) in the lower gangway cloth (7g) are overlapped with each other
so as to be assembled, and the lower gangway cloth (7g) is structured such as to be
capable of being separately taken out from the upper gangway cloth (7e).
