Abstract
A gangway is provided between two railway cars or units of railway cars that are pivoted to one another, and that forms a continuous, stepless passage for all travel motions. The entire gangway is designed as a unit that is held in the central position to each of the ends of the cars facing one another with the ability to shift lengthwise, by a centering device, and is supported and guided on bridge bearings, and is mounted to be able to pivot around its vertical axis and also to be able to tip out of the horizontal plane. The bridge area of the gangway consists of a number of rigid rails placed parallel to one another at prescribed distances and able to move lengthwise, which are enclosed and guided at both ends in supporting profiles that are mounted and guided on the bridge bearings associated with them.
