CASSA PER VEICOLI REFRIGERATI

The invention relates to a wagon body for railway refrigerator wagons, in particular relating to the design of the door openings of the freight space. With the aim of permitting loading and unloading with stacks of pallets whose height is matched to the stacking height in the freight space, the objective of the invention is to design the body of the refrigerator wagon in such a way that, whilst maintaining the width of the freight space, the height of the freight space door openings corresponds to the possible stacking height in the freight space and the arrangement of freight space doors with seals which run around in one plane is made possible. In order to realise the objective, the roof of the vehicle is bent horizontally at least in the region of the freight space doors and this is carried out in such a way that the inner roof lining above the region of the greatest freight stacking height adjoins the door opening frame horizontally. Perpendicular legs of longitudinal roof profiles (3; 3') which adjoin the outer roof panel which is also bent horizontally are located in one plane with the door columns and are welded thereto to form a frame. The perpendicular legs of the longitudinal roof profile (3; 3') protrude, at least over the freight space doors, upwards beyond the outer roof panel and are provided with a horizontal leg which covers the door seal profiles.
