Gangway for a multi-car vehicle and method for attaching a bellows of a gangway to an endframe of a gangway

1. A gangway for a multi-car vehicle, the gangway comprising a bellows and an endframe, the bellows being attached to the endframe, wherein

a holding element is attached to the endframe, the holding element having a holding surface that faces a counter surface on the endframe, whereby a part of the bellows is arranged between the holding surface and the counter surface and is pressed against the counter surface by the holding element, wherein the counter surface has a bead and the holding surface has a bulge facing the bead of the counter surface, and wherein the part of the bellows is pressed by the bulge against the bead.

2. The gangway according to claim 1 , wherein the holding element is attached to the endframe by means of a screw.

3. The gangway according to claim 1 , wherein the gangway has a further bellows attached to the endframe.

4. The gangway according to claim 3 , wherein the holding element has a second holding surface that faces a second counter surface on the endframe, and wherein a part of the further bellows is arranged between the second holding surface and the second counter surface and is pressed against the second counter surface by the holding element.

5. The gangway according to claim 1 , further comprising a first attachment position and a second attachment position, wherein the holding element is configured to be attached to the endframe in one of the first attachment position or the second attachment position, the first attachment position differing from the second attachment position either in an orientation of the holding element differing when the holding element is attached in the first attachment position than when the holding element is attached in the second attachment position, or by way of the first attachment position being spaced apart from the second attachment position.

6. The gangway according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a crimping element attached to the endframe, the crimping element having a crimping mouth, wherein an other part of the bellows is inserted into the crimping mouth and held inside the crimping mouth.

7. The gangway according to claim 6 , wherein the crimping element is attached to the endframe by means of a screw.

8. The gangway according to claim 6 , wherein the endframe has a surface and an additional bead arranged on the surface, and wherein the crimping element has a recess that cooperates with the additional bead.

9. The gangway according to claim 6 , wherein the crimping element is an angled part, one end of the angled part being an attachment part of the crimping element, the attachment part being the part that is attached to the endframe, the other end of the angled part being a crimping part that has the crimping mouth.

10. The gangway according to claim 6 , wherein the crimping element or the holding element is a lath.

11. The gangway according to claim 6 , wherein the endframe has a profiled beam, and wherein the crimping element and/or the holding element is attached to the profiled beam.

12. The gangway according to claim 6 , further comprising a first attachment position and a second attachment position, wherein the crimping element is configured to be attached to the endframe in one of the first attachment position or the second attachment position, the first attachment position differing from the second attachment position either in an orientation of the crimping element differing when the crimping element is attached in the first attachment position than when the crimping element is attached in the second attachment position, or by way of the first attachment position being spaced apart from the second attachment position.

13. A method of attaching a bellows of a gangway for a multi-car vehicle to an endframe of a gangway, comprising:

partially attaching a holding element having a holding surface to the endframe, arranging a part of the bellows between the holding surface of the partially attached holding element and a counter surface on the endframe, and tightening the attachment of the holding element to the endframe such that the part of the bellows arranged between the holding surface and the counter surface is pressed against the counter surface by the holding element; or,

holding a part of the bellows against the counter surface and then attaching the holding element to the endframe such that the part of the bellows is arranged between the holding surface and the counter surface and is pressed against the counter surface by the holding element, wherein the counter surface has a bead and the holding surface has a bulge facing the bead of the counter surface, and wherein the part of the bellows is pressed by the bulge against the bead.

14. The method of claim 13 ,

wherein arranging the part of the bellows between the holding surface and a counter surface on the endframe comprises arranging a part of the bellows between a bulge of the holding surface and a bead of the counter surface on the endframe;

wherein tightening the attachment of the holding element to the endframe such that the part of the bellows arranged between the holding surface and the counter surface is pressed against the counter surface by the holding element comprises tightening the attachment of the holding element to the endframe such that the part of the bellows arranged between the holding surface and the counter surface is pressed by the bulge of the holding surface against the bead of the counter surface by the holding element; and

wherein holding a part of the bellows against the counter surface and then attaching the holding element to the endframe such that the part of the bellows is arranged between the holding surface and the counter surface and is pressed against the counter surface by the holding element comprises holding a part of the bellows against the bead of the counter surface and then attaching the holding element to the endframe such that the part of the bellows is arranged between the bulge of the holding surface and the bead of the counter surface and is pressed against the bead of the counter surface by the bulge of the holding element.

15. A gangway for a multi-car vehicle, the gangway comprising a bellows and an endframe, the bellows being attached to the endframe, wherein a holding element is attached to the endframe, the holding element having a holding surface that faces a counter surface on the endframe, whereby a part of the bellows is arranged between the holding surface and the counter surface and is pressed against the counter surface by the holding element, wherein the holding element is attached to the endframe by means of a screw.
