Disclosed embodiment provide a sliding step assembly for a vehicle or a rail vehicle, comprising at least one footboard, which is guided on a guiding device for movement along a travel path between a retracted position and an extended position by driving by a drive. The drive contains at least one electrical linear motor operating without contact, wherein the driving force of the electrical linear motor is transferred to the footboard without mechanical connection.

A first moulding element is arranged on a vertical edge of a door leaf, and at least one second moulding element is arranged on a vertical strut of a door frame, wherein the first moulding element and the second moulding element intermesh automatically only in the closed position of the door leaf in such a manner that a direct or indirect form fit is automatically produced between the first moulding element and the second moulding element, as seen in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the door leaf, but such a form fit is automatically removed in a position of the door leaf differing from the closed position.

A swinging-sliding door module for a rail vehicle is provided, the swinging-sliding door module including a door leaf and a rotatably mounted rotary pillar coupled to the door leaf. Furthermore, the swinging-sliding door module includes a support which is oriented longitudinally in the sliding direction of the door leaf and is mounted so as to be displaceable transversely with respect to the longitudinal extent thereof in the horizontal direction in relation to the rotary pillar and in which the door leaf is mounted displaceably. A first over-center locking brings about the deployment movement of the support. Furthermore, the coupling between rotary pillar and door leaf includes a second over-center locking which acts in the deployment direction of the door leaf.

The present invention relates to a method for monitoring at least one electronic switching contact for a door system for a vehicle, wherein the switching contact has a first connection for a first electrical line and a second connection for a second electrical line. The method comprises a step of reading a first signal from a first monitoring point connected to the first connection in order to obtain a first monitoring signal, a step of reading a second signal from a second monitoring point connected to the second connection in order to obtain a second monitoring signal, and a step of combining the first monitoring signal and the second monitoring signal in order to determine at least one state of the at least one switching contact.

A sliding door module or pivoting sliding door module for a rail vehicle includes a door leaf and a support, which is aligned longitudinally in the sliding direction of the door leaf and is mounted such that the support can be displaced in the horizontal direction in particular transversely to the longitudinal extent thereof. The sliding door module or pivoting sliding door module also has a linear guide for mounting the door leaf, which is fastened to or integrated in the support. The door leaves are moved with the aid of a rack-and-pinion drive. The rack-and-pinion drive has a rack which is coupled only in the first end region thereof to the door leaf, and the floating end of which is engaged with a gearwheel that is mounted rotatably in the support.

A door leaf for a vehicle, in particular for a rail vehicle. The door leaf includes a door leaf frame for supporting a first shell, which is or can be arranged on a first main surface of the door leaf frame, and a second shell, which is or can be arranged on a second main surface of the door leaf frame opposite the first main surface. The door leaf has at least one connecting piece for thermally decoupling the first shell from the second shell, the connecting piece is or can be arranged or arrangeable on the door leaf frame. The at least one connecting piece is or can be arranged on the door leaf frame so the first shell and the second shell are movable relative to each other in at least one section of movement as a result of temperature variations.

A swinging-sliding door module for a rail vehicle having at least one swinging-sliding door and a linear guide with a profile rail oriented in the sliding direction of the swinging-sliding door, and a carriage mounted displaceably on the profile rail. The swinging-sliding door module includes a bracket or a plurality of brackets for fastening the swinging-sliding door, which bracket or brackets is/are connected to the at least one carriage or is/are surrounded by the latter. The swinging-sliding door module also has at least one rotary joint which permits rotation of the swinging-sliding door in relation to the profile rail about an axis of rotation oriented substantially horizontally and transversely with respect to the sliding direction and/or about an axis of rotation oriented substantially vertically. Also disclosed is a rail vehicle with a swinging-sliding door module.

A method of detecting misfire in an internal combustion engine comprises: sensing a temporal signature of a lateral displacement of the engine, performing a spectral analysis of the temporal signature of the lateral displacement to extract a magnitude of a predetermined frequency, and determining that misfiring in at least one of the plurality of cylinders has occurred based on the magnitude of the predetermined frequency. The predetermined frequency is associated with one of a plurality of orders of the engine. The one of the plurality of orders is representative of engine displacement due to in-cylinder pressures. Other methods of detecting misfire and a vehicle are also presented.
