Abstract

A rail vehicle having a wall or door with an opening arranged therein and a window pane arranged in the opening. The rail vehicle has a clamping frame which is inserted into the opening, which is mounted ahead of the window pane, and which has a region of overlap with the window pane on the plane of the wall or door. Also disclosed is a method for assembling a window pane in an opening of a wall or door of a rail vehicle, wherein the window pane and a clamping frame are inserted into the opening, the clamping frame is mounted ahead of the window pane and has a region of overlap with the window pane on the plane of the wall or door.

1 . A rail vehicle, comprising:
 a wall or a door with an opening arranged therein; and   a window unit which is arranged in the opening,   wherein said rail vehicle has a clamping frame which is inserted in the aforementioned opening, and arranged in front of the window unit, and has a region of overlap with the window unit in the plane of the wall or of the door.   
     
     
         2 . The rail vehicle of  claim 1 , wherein the window unit is frameless. 
     
     
         3 . The rail vehicle of  claim 1 , wherein the opening has a first all-round rebate and a second rebate, which is offset in relation to the first rebate, wherein the window unit is inserted into the first rebate and the clamping frame is inserted into the second rebate. 
     
     
         4 . The rail vehicle of  claim 3 , wherein the window unit is retained in the opening merely by the first rebate and the clamping frame. 
     
     
         5 . The rail vehicle of  claim 1 , wherein said rail vehicle has a second clamping frame, which is arranged in front of the window unit and is located opposite the first clamping frame, as seen in relation to the window unit. 
     
     
         6 . The rail vehicle of  claim 5 , wherein the window unit is retained in the opening merely by the two clamping frames. 
     
     
         7 . The rail vehicle of  claim 1 , wherein at least one clamping frame terminates flush with the wall or the door. 
     
     
         8 . The rail vehicle of  claim 1 , wherein at least one clamping frame projects out of the plane of the wall or of the door. 
     
     
         9 . The rail vehicle of  claim 1 , wherein a clamping frame is arranged on the inside of the wall or of the door. 
     
     
         10 . A method of installing a window unit in an opening of a wall or of a door of a rail vehicle, the method comprising:
 a) inserting the window unit into the opening; and   b) inserting a clamping frame into the aforementioned opening, wherein the clamping frame is arranged in front of the window unit and has a region of overlap therewith in the plane of the wall or of the door.
