The invention relates to a vehicle front-end module having a vehicle front-end structure (100) for mounting to the front end of a rail-borne vehicle, in particular a railway vehicle, wherein the vehicle front-end structure (100) is wholly composed of structural elements made from fiber composite or fiber composite sandwich material. The structural elements forming the vehicle front-end structure (100) comprise first structural elements (10, 10', 11, 12, 12', 14, 15, 16) which are configured and directly connected to one another so as to form a substantially deformation-resistant, self-supporting front-end structure designed to accommodate a vehicle driver's cab (101). The structural elements forming the vehicle front-end structure (100) further comprise second structural elements (20, 20', 21, 21', 22, 22', 23, 24, 24') connected to the first structural elements (10, 10', 11, 12, 12', 14, 15, 16) and designed such that at least a portion of the impact energy occurring due to the transmitting of impact force (collision energy) and introduced into the structure (100) upon a collision of the rail-borne vehicle is dissipated by at least partly irreversible deformation or at least partial destruction of the second structural elements (20, 20', 21, 21', 22, 22', 23, 24, 24').
L'invention concerne une tête de véhicule comportant une structure de tête de véhicule (100) à fixer sur la face frontale d'un véhicule guidé sur rails, en particulier un véhicule ferroviaire, la structure de tête de véhicule (100) étant entièrement constituée d'éléments structuraux en matériau renforcé par des fibres ou en matériau sandwich renforcé par des fibres. Les éléments structuraux constituant la structure de tête de véhicule (100) comprennent des premiers éléments structuraux (10, 10', 11, 12, 12', 14, 15, 16) réalisés et directement assemblés de sorte à former une structure de tête monocoque sensiblement résistante à la déformation, destinée à recevoir un poste de conduite (101). Les éléments structuraux constituant la structure de tête de véhicule (100) comprennent également des seconds éléments structuraux (20, 20', 21, 21', 22, 22', 23, 24, 24') qui sont reliés aux premiers éléments structuraux (10, 10', 11, 12, 12', 14, 15, 16) et conçus de sorte qu'au moins une partie de l'énergie de choc (énergie de collision), appliquée à la structure (100) du véhicule guidé sur rails et produite en cas de collision en raison d'une transmission d'efforts, est affaiblie par destruction ou déformation irréversible au moins partielles des seconds éléments structuraux (20, 20', 21, 21', 22, 22', 23, 24, 24').
