Abstract

A sliding door module or pivoting sliding door module for a rail vehicle includes a door leaf and a support, which is aligned longitudinally in the sliding direction of the door leaf and is mounted such that the support can be displaced in the horizontal direction in particular transversely to the longitudinal extent thereof. The sliding door module or pivoting sliding door module also has a linear guide for mounting the door leaf, which is fastened to or integrated in the support. The door leaves are moved with the aid of a rack-and-pinion drive. The rack-and-pinion drive has a rack which is coupled only in the first end region thereof to the door leaf, and the floating end of which is engaged with a gearwheel that is mounted rotatably in the support.
