Patent 4723627: Double decked elevator car A double decked elevator car as claimed in claim 2 wherein the common back wall of the upper and lower cars is formed with an outwardly projecting portion spaced apart from the floor of said upper car and the ceiling of said lower car so as to constitute said communicating means. A double decked elevator car as claimed in claim 2 wherein said opening of the upper car is disposed in the floor thereof and said opening of the lower car is disposed in the ceiling thereof, each said opening being immediately adjacent to said common back wall. Therefore, in a conventional double decked elevator, an indicator is disposed within each car for communicating the calls to the passengers in the upper and lower cars, which however is insufficient to remove an anxiety arisen due to the passengers feeling isolated. www.freepatentsonline.com /4723627.html

Sample Chapter for White, G.E.: Creating the National Pastime: Baseball Transforms Itself, 1903-1953. Double decking, however, was rare in the era of the wooden ballparks. Upper decks could be set back from lower decks so that not all the spectators in the lower deck had their aerial views restricted by the upper deck. One was the capacity to build upper decks to grandstands; the second was the capacity to replace wooden structures with steel and concrete structures that served the same function. www.pupress.princeton.edu /chapters/s5786.html

Double decker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The most popular double-deck airplane is the Boeing 747, although the top deck is smaller than the lower level. All electric commuter trains in Sydney are double deck. The advantage of this design feature is that commuter rail operators do not have to spend scarce funds on building high-level platforms; rather, a low-level platform is all that is necessary, at a far lower cost. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Double_decker

DD/SD The Oldfield Park route might only be accessible to single-decked vehicles as it passes under a railway bridge with 4 metres headroom, so a mixed fleet of double and single-deckers will probably be the best option for Bath. To take advantage of the extra revenue to be made during busy periods, but without the need for extra vehicles and crews, the standing capacity of a tram is often double that of its seating capacity and that contributes greatly to its revenue-earning ability. The possibility of vandals resorting to the top deck in order to practice destructive or anti-social habits unobserved, could be discouraged by the standard security measures which might nowadays prove necessary anywhere. www.bathtram.org /tfb/tDD-SD.htm

Bulleid 4DD class Unlike the double decked commuter cars already in use in the USA which were of a spacious open "gallery" design the restrictive British loading gauge forced a far more cramped solution. Thus the experiment did not lead to more double deck units, with the result being the need to upgrade the infrastructure and run ten car trains, although the two units survived plying commuters between Dartford and the London termini until the autumn of 1971. Shortly before the railways were nationalised in 1948 a typically bold and innovative solution emerged from Oliver Bulleid and the Southern's carriage works at Eastleigh for a double decked EMU design. www.semg.org.uk /gallery/4dd.html   (4486 words)
