Description

鉄道車両用非常ブレーキ装置、鉄道車両用非常ブレーキシステム、及び鉄道車両用非常ブレーキ装置を備えた鉄道車両Railroad vehicle emergency brake device, railroad vehicle emergency brake system, and railroad vehicle emergency brake device
 本発明は、走行中の鉄道車両を減速させるために用いられるブレーキ装置、特に非常時等で最も強い(最も減速度が大きい)ブレーキである非常ブレーキを発生させる鉄道車両用非常ブレーキ装置、鉄道車両用非常ブレーキシステム、及び鉄道車両用非常ブレーキ装置を備えた鉄道車両に関する。 The present invention relates to a brake device used for decelerating a traveling railway vehicle, in particular, an emergency brake device for a railway vehicle that generates an emergency brake that is the strongest (highest deceleration) brake in an emergency or the like. The present invention relates to an emergency brake system for a railway and a railway vehicle equipped with an emergency brake device for a railway vehicle.
 鉄道車両を減速させるためのさまざまな形式のブレーキが研究開発されている。また、鉄道車両においては、非常時であっても所定の距離以下で停止することが大変重要である。 * Various types of brakes for decelerating railway vehicles are being researched and developed. Moreover, in a railway vehicle, it is very important to stop at a predetermined distance or less even in an emergency.
 例えば、特許文献1には、鉄道車両の車輪の走行面をブレーキシューで押圧することで、制動力を発生させる、いわゆるトラッドブレーキ装置が開示されている。 For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a so-called trad brake device that generates a braking force by pressing a running surface of a wheel of a railway vehicle with a brake shoe.
 また、特許文献2には、車輪又はブレーキディスクの側面をブレーキパッドで挟み込むことで、制動力を発生させるディスクブレーキ装置が開示されている。 Also, Patent Document 2 discloses a disc brake device that generates a braking force by sandwiching a side surface of a wheel or a brake disc with a brake pad.
 さらに、特許文献3には、直接レールに磁界を与えて制動力を得る、磁気レールブレーキが開示されている。 Furthermore, Patent Document 3 discloses a magnetic rail brake in which a magnetic field is directly applied to the rail to obtain a braking force.
 また、特許文献4には、車両の外側に空力ブレーキ板を展開して空力抵抗により制動力を発生させる空力ブレーキ装置が開示されている。 Patent Document 4 discloses an aerodynamic brake device in which an aerodynamic brake plate is developed outside a vehicle to generate a braking force by aerodynamic resistance.
 鉄道車両においては、特許文献1記載のトラッドブレーキ装置、特許文献2記載のディスクブレーキおよび特許文献3記載のレールブレーキ等が単独又は組み合わされて用いられることが多い。 In railway vehicles, the trad brake device described in Patent Document 1, the disc brake described in Patent Document 2, the rail brake described in Patent Document 3, and the like are often used alone or in combination.
 そして、これらの特許文献1から特許文献3記載のブレーキは、電車に使用される場合、通常の制動時には、力行用の電動モータによって発生させる回生ブレーキと協調して、車両を減速させ、鉄道車両の速度を低下、そして停止させるために使用される。 And when these brakes described in Patent Literature 1 to Patent Literature 3 are used in a train, during normal braking, the vehicle is decelerated in cooperation with a regenerative brake generated by an electric motor for power running. Used to slow down and stop the.
 一方、鉄道車両が走行中に、非常時、例えば鉄道車両の進行方向の前方に障害物、人、車等が存在する場合や、地震が発生した場合などは、特許文献1から特許文献3記載のブレーキ力(減速度)を特に大きく作用させて、鉄道車両の速度を急速に低下させている。 On the other hand, in the event of an emergency, for example, when there are obstacles, people, cars, etc. in front of the traveling direction of the railway vehicle, or when an earthquake occurs, the description in Patent Document 1 to Patent Document 3 is described. The braking force (deceleration) of the vehicle is particularly large, and the speed of the railway vehicle is rapidly reduced.
 しかし、近年、鉄道車両の高速化に伴い、従来と同程度の距離である、予め定められた制動距離で停止することが困難になりつつあり、新たな制動力を得る手段として、新幹線などにおいては特許文献4記載の空力ブレーキ装置が設けられる場合もある。 However, in recent years, with the speeding up of railway vehicles, it has become difficult to stop at a predetermined braking distance, which is the same distance as before, and as a means for obtaining new braking force, in Shinkansen etc. May be provided with an aerodynamic brake device described in Patent Document 4.
特表平06-510965号公報Japanese Translation of National Publication No. 06-510965 特表平10-505038号公報Japanese National Patent Publication No. 10-505038 特開2003-165437号公報JP 2003-165437 A 特開2003-002194号公報JP 2003-002194 A
 しかしながら、鉄道車両が更に高速化され、例えば時速380Km以上の超高速度となると、特許文献1から特許文献3のブレーキ装置に特許文献4記載の空力ブレーキ装置を付加しようとすると、ブレーキ力を上げるため、或いは空気抵抗に対抗するため、装置の強度を上げる必要があり、これに伴い車両重量が増加することになる。更にブレーキシューやブレーキパッドが高速回転する車輪等に接することで寿命を大きく影響を与えることになる。 However, when the speed of a railway vehicle is further increased, for example, when the speed becomes super high speed of 380 km / h or more, if the aerodynamic brake device described in Patent Literature 4 is added to the brake devices of Patent Literature 1 to Patent Literature 3, the braking force is increased. Therefore, in order to counter air resistance, it is necessary to increase the strength of the device, and the vehicle weight increases accordingly. Further, the life of the brake shoe or brake pad is greatly affected by contact with a wheel that rotates at a high speed.
 本発明の目的は、超高速度の鉄道車両を、非常時、例えば鉄道車両の進行方向の前方に障害物、人、車等が存在する場合や、地震が発生した場合などに、従来と同程度である、予め定められた距離で停止させることができる、鉄道車両用非常ブレーキ装置、鉄道車両用非常ブレーキシステム、及び鉄道車両用非常ブレーキ装置を備えた鉄道車両を提供することである。 The object of the present invention is to make a super high-speed railway vehicle the same as in the past in an emergency, for example, when there are obstacles, people, cars, etc. in front of the traveling direction of the railway vehicle, or when an earthquake occurs. It is to provide a railway vehicle emergency brake device, a railway vehicle emergency brake system, and a railway vehicle equipped with a railway vehicle emergency brake device that can be stopped at a predetermined distance.
(1)
 第1局面に従う鉄道車両用非常ブレーキ装置は、車両に備えられた非常ブレーキ装置であって、車両に少なくとも1または複数のジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンを備え、ジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンの推進力は、車両の進行方向とは逆方向に発生させられるものである。
(1)
An emergency brake device for a railway vehicle according to a first aspect is an emergency brake device provided in a vehicle, the vehicle including at least one or more jet engines or rocket engines, and the propulsive force of the jet engine or rocket engine is It is generated in the direction opposite to the traveling direction.
 この場合、鉄道車両の進行方向前方に推進力が作用するので、トラッドブレーキ装置やディスクブレーキ装置などの空気式ブレーキ装置や、力行用の電動モータによる回生ブレーキ装置や、空力ブレーキ装置等の通常のブレーキ装置を、超高速でも対応可能なように高強度化することなく、超高速で走行している鉄道車両の速度を低下させることができる。その結果、通常のブレーキ装置を高強度化、複雑化、大型化することなく、超高速で走行する鉄道車両を予め規定された距離内で停止させることができる。なお、現在、空気式ブレーキ装置などで用いられている非常ブレーキは、減速度の大きい常用ブレーキとして使用されることがあるものであるが、本明細書における非常ブレーキとは、空気式ブレーキ装置などで用いられている非常ブレーキよりも大きな減速度を発生させるものであって、緊急時など特別な状況下で使用するブレーキを意味している。 In this case, since the propulsive force acts forward in the traveling direction of the railway vehicle, a normal brake brake device, a pneumatic brake device such as a disc brake device, a regenerative brake device using an electric motor for power running, an aerodynamic brake device, etc. It is possible to reduce the speed of a railway vehicle traveling at an ultra high speed without increasing the strength of the brake device so that it can be applied at an ultra high speed. As a result, it is possible to stop a railway vehicle traveling at an ultra high speed within a predetermined distance without increasing the strength, complexity, and size of a normal brake device. Note that emergency brakes currently used in pneumatic brake devices and the like are sometimes used as service brakes with large deceleration. However, emergency brakes in this specification are pneumatic brake devices and the like. This is a brake that generates a larger deceleration than the emergency brake used in the vehicle and is used under special circumstances such as in an emergency.

 ジェットエンジンの噴射ノズルまたはロケットエンジンの噴出口は、少なくとも車両の進行方向前方及び後方に回動できるように設けられてもよい。
(2)
The jet nozzle of the jet engine or the jet outlet of the rocket engine may be provided so as to be rotatable at least forward and backward in the traveling direction of the vehicle.
 鉄道車両の一般的な運行は、往路での先頭車両は復路で後尾車両となり、往路で後尾車両は復路で先頭車両となるため、このように構成すれば、ジェットエンジンやロケットエンジン本体の向きを変えることなく、鉄道車両の一般的な運行に対応することができる。 In general operation of railway vehicles, the leading vehicle on the outbound route becomes the trailing vehicle on the returning route, and the trailing vehicle on the outbound route becomes the leading vehicle on the returning route. Without changing, it is possible to cope with general operations of railway vehicles.
(3)
 ジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンには、スラストリバーサが展開可能に設けられもよい。
(3)
A thrust reverser may be provided in the jet engine or the rocket engine so as to be deployable.
 スラストリバーサとは、ジェットエンジンの噴射ノズルまたはロケットエンジンの噴出口を蓋をするように設けることで、噴射ノズルまたは噴出口とは逆方向に推力を発生させるものである。鉄道車両の一般的な運行は、往路での先頭車両は復路で後尾車両となり、往路で後尾車両は復路で先頭車両となるため、スラストリバーサを展開可能に構成すれば、ジェットエンジンやロケットエンジン本体の向きを変えることなく、鉄道車両の一般的な運行に対応することができる。 The thrust reverser is a device that generates thrust in the direction opposite to the injection nozzle or the jet outlet by providing the jet nozzle of the jet engine or the jet outlet of the rocket engine as a lid. In general operation of railway vehicles, the leading vehicle on the outbound route becomes the trailing vehicle on the returning route, and the trailing vehicle on the outbound route becomes the leading vehicle on the returning route, so if the thrust reverser can be deployed, the jet engine or rocket engine body It is possible to cope with general operations of railway vehicles without changing the direction of the vehicle.
(4)
 ジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンは、車両の上部に設けられてもよい。
(4)
The jet engine or rocket engine may be provided in the upper part of the vehicle.
 この場合、車両の上方は、車両限界(車両及びその付属物が駅舎設備等に干渉しないようにするために設けられた車両及びその付属物が存在しても良いとされる範囲)の制限が比較的緩く、また車両の付属物も少ないので、ジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンを容易に配置することができる。 In this case, the upper limit of the vehicle is limited by the vehicle limit (the range in which the vehicle and its accessories may be present so that the vehicle and its accessories do not interfere with the station building facilities). The jet engine or rocket engine can be easily arranged because it is relatively loose and has few vehicle accessories.
(5)
 ジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンは、非常ブレーキが作動していないときは、車両内に収納されており、非常ブレーキが作動するときは、圧縮空気または火薬による爆発力によって車両外に移動されるようになっていてもよい。
(5)
The jet engine or rocket engine is housed in the vehicle when the emergency brake is not activated, and when the emergency brake is activated, the jet engine or rocket engine is moved out of the vehicle by the explosive force of compressed air or explosives. It may be.
 この場合、ジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンを使用しない場合、すなわち非常ブレーキを使用しない場合には、車両の空気抵抗を最小限に抑制することができる。また、車両において空気バネやディスクブレーキなどの空気式ブレーキ装置に使用されている圧縮空気を使用する場合には、新たな駆動源を設ける必要が無いので、車両重量の増加を抑制することができる。また、火薬を使用する場合には、車両重量の増加を最小限に抑えつつ、ジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンを迅速に車両外に移動させることができるので、減速を迅速に行うことができる。 In this case, when the jet engine or the rocket engine is not used, that is, when the emergency brake is not used, the air resistance of the vehicle can be minimized. In addition, when using compressed air that is used in pneumatic brake devices such as air springs and disc brakes in a vehicle, there is no need to provide a new drive source, and therefore an increase in vehicle weight can be suppressed. . Further, when using gunpowder, the jet engine or the rocket engine can be quickly moved out of the vehicle while minimizing an increase in the vehicle weight, so that deceleration can be performed quickly.
(6)
 ジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンは、非常ブレーキが作動していないときは車両を覆うカウル内に収納されており、非常ブレーキが作動するときは、圧縮空気または火薬による爆発力によって少なくとも車両進行方向前方のカウルを開口させるようになっていてもよい。
(6)
The jet engine or rocket engine is housed in a cowl that covers the vehicle when the emergency brake is not activated. When the emergency brake is activated, the jet engine or the rocket engine is at least a cowl in front of the vehicle traveling direction due to the explosive force of compressed air or explosives. May be opened.
 この場合、ジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンを使用しない場合、すなわち非常ブレーキを使用しない場合には、車両の空気抵抗を最小限に抑制することができる。また、車両において空気バネやディスクブレーキなどの空気式ブレーキ装置に使用されている圧縮空気を使用する場合には、新たな駆動源を設ける必要が無いので、車両重量の増加を抑制することができる。また、火薬を使用する場合には、車両重量の増加を最小限に抑えつつ、ジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンを迅速に車両外に移動させることができるので、減速を迅速に行うことができる。更にジェットエンジンやロケットエンジンに比べて軽量なカウルを開口させるので、開口させる機構を簡素なものにできる。 In this case, when the jet engine or the rocket engine is not used, that is, when the emergency brake is not used, the air resistance of the vehicle can be minimized. In addition, when using compressed air that is used in pneumatic brake devices such as air springs and disc brakes in a vehicle, there is no need to provide a new drive source, and therefore an increase in vehicle weight can be suppressed. . Further, when using gunpowder, the jet engine or the rocket engine can be quickly moved out of the vehicle while minimizing an increase in the vehicle weight, so that deceleration can be performed quickly. Further, since the cowl that is lighter than that of the jet engine or rocket engine is opened, the opening mechanism can be simplified.
(7)
 第2局面に従う鉄道車両用非常ブレーキシステムは、請求項1から6のいずれかに記載の鉄道車両用非常ブレーキ装置を備えた車両が複数連結された列車と、ジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンを制御する制御装置と、を含み、制御装置は、列車の先頭車両から最後尾車両に向かう方向で、ジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンの推進力が高くなるよう制御するものである。
(7)
A railroad vehicle emergency brake system according to a second aspect is a control for controlling a train in which a plurality of vehicles including the railcar emergency brake device according to any one of claims 1 to 6 are connected, and a jet engine or a rocket engine. The control device controls the jet engine or the rocket engine to have a higher propulsive force in the direction from the first vehicle to the last vehicle of the train.
 この場合、制御装置により列車の先頭車両から最後尾車両に向かう方向で、ジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンの推進力が高くなるよう制御されるので、非常ブレーキシステムが作動し、強い減速度の制動が生じても、列車の編成の座屈を防止することができる。 In this case, the control device controls the propulsion force of the jet engine or rocket engine to increase in the direction from the first vehicle to the last vehicle of the train, so the emergency brake system operates and strong deceleration braking occurs. However, buckling of train formation can be prevented.
(8)
 第3局面に従う鉄道車両用非常ブレーキシステムは、請求項1から6のいずれかに記載の鉄道車両用非常ブレーキ装置を備えた車両が複数連結された列車と、ジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンを制御する制御装置と、を含み、制御装置は、列車の最後尾車両から先頭車両に向かう順で、ジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンの推進力を、時間差をもって発生させるものである。
(8)
A railroad vehicle emergency brake system according to a third aspect is a control for controlling a train in which a plurality of vehicles including the railcar emergency brake device according to any one of claims 1 to 6 are connected, and a jet engine or a rocket engine. The control device generates the propulsive force of the jet engine or the rocket engine with a time difference in the order from the last vehicle of the train to the first vehicle.
 この場合、制御装置により列車の最後尾車両から先頭車両に向かう順で、ジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンの出力を開始するよう制御されるので、非常ブレーキシステムが作動し、強い減速度の制動が生じても、列車の編成の座屈を防止することができる。 In this case, the control device is controlled to start the output of the jet engine or rocket engine in the order from the last vehicle to the first vehicle of the train, so the emergency brake system is activated and strong deceleration braking occurs. Even the buckling of train formation can be prevented.
(9)
 車両は、圧縮空気を用いたブレーキ装置をさらに含み、制御装置は、圧縮空気を用いたブレーキ装置によるブレーキ力(ここでは、現在、一般的に用いられているいわゆる非常ブレーキに相当するブレーキ力を意味する)が不足すると判定した場合に、ジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンを作動させるよう制御してもよい。
(9)
The vehicle further includes a brake device using compressed air, and the control device applies a brake force generated by the brake device using compressed air (here, a brake force corresponding to a so-called emergency brake generally used at present). If it is determined that there is a shortage of (meaning), the jet engine or the rocket engine may be controlled to operate.
 この場合、超高速度でない場合、即ち、従来と同程度のブレーキ力で予め規定された距離内で停止させることができる場合は、圧縮空気を用いたブレーキ装置で車両の速度を低減させることができるので、ジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンの消耗を抑えることができる一方、非常時にはジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンを作動させて鉄道車両の速度を低減させることができる。 In this case, when the speed is not very high, that is, when the vehicle can be stopped within a predetermined distance with a braking force comparable to the conventional one, the speed of the vehicle can be reduced with a brake device using compressed air. Thus, the consumption of the jet engine or rocket engine can be suppressed, while the speed of the railway vehicle can be reduced by operating the jet engine or rocket engine in an emergency.
(10)
 鉄道車両用非常ブレーキシステムは、車両の速度を計測する速度計測装置をさらに含み、制御部は、ジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンのみを作動させる非常制御、圧縮空気を用いたブレーキ装置のみを作動させる通常制御、ジェットエンジンまたはロケットエンジンおよびブレーキ装置の全てを所定の割合で作動させる割合調整制御、のいずれかの制御を速度計測装置に基づいて切り換えてもよい。
(10)
The emergency brake system for railway vehicles further includes a speed measuring device for measuring the speed of the vehicle, and the control unit performs emergency control for operating only a jet engine or a rocket engine, and normal control for operating only a brake device using compressed air. Any control of ratio adjustment control that operates all of the jet engine or the rocket engine and the brake device at a predetermined ratio may be switched based on the speed measuring device.
 この場合、制御部は、速度計測装置に基づいて非常制御、割合調整制御、通常制御のうちいずれかを切り換えて用いることができるので、速度に応じた最適な装置を使用することができる。また、速度のみならず、重量、重量および速度に基づいて制御を変更させてもよい。したがって、ブレーキ装置のブレーキパッド等の磨耗を低減できるとともに、確実に車両を停止させることができる。 In this case, since the control unit can switch between emergency control, ratio adjustment control, and normal control based on the speed measurement device, it is possible to use an optimum device according to the speed. Further, the control may be changed based on not only the speed but also the weight, weight and speed. Therefore, it is possible to reduce wear of brake pads and the like of the brake device and to reliably stop the vehicle.
(11)
 第3の局面に従う鉄道車両は、請求項1から請求項6のいずれか1項に記載の鉄道車両用非常ブレーキ装置を備えたものである。
(11)
A railway vehicle according to a third aspect includes the emergency brake device for a railway vehicle according to any one of claims 1 to 6.
 この場合、超高速で走行中の鉄道車両を、予め定められた距離で停止させることができる。 In this case, it is possible to stop the railway vehicle running at an ultra high speed at a predetermined distance.

 以下、本発明に係る実施の形態について図面を用いて説明する。 Embodiments according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
(一実施の形態)
 図1および図2は、本発明に係る一実施の形態に係る鉄道車両100の一例を示す模式的外観図である。図1は鉄道車両100の側面矢視図であり、図2は鉄道車両100の上面矢視図である。
(One embodiment)
1 and 2 are schematic external views showing an example of a railway vehicle 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. 1 is a side view of the railcar 100, and FIG. 2 is a top view of the railcar 100.
 図1に示すように、鉄道車両100は、レールL上を走行する車両であり、車両201,~,車両206の6両編成からなる。車両201,~,車両206は、それぞれ連結器211,~,215により接続されている。 As shown in FIG. 1, the railway vehicle 100 is a vehicle that travels on the rail L, and includes six trains of vehicles 201,. The vehicles 201,..., And the vehicle 206 are connected by couplers 211,.
 また、図2に示すように、車両201,~,車両206の上部(屋根)には、ジェットエンジン装置300およびジェットエンジン装置400が配設される。 Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the jet engine device 300 and the jet engine device 400 are disposed on the upper part (roof) of the vehicles 201,.
 ジェットエンジン装置300は、ジェットエンジン301およびノズル302を有し、ジェットエンジン装置400は、ジェットエンジン401およびノズル402を有する。ここで、例えば、ジェットエンジン装置300,400の形式は、ターボジェット、ターボファン、ターボプロップ、ターボシャフト等、いずれでも良い。なお、ジェットエンジン装置300、400は、ロケットエンジンであってもよく、更には、例えばジェットエンジン装置300は、ターボジェット形式のジェットエンジンであり、ジェットエンジン装置400はロケットエンジンであるなど、ジェットエンジンとロケットエンジンとの組み合わせであっても良い。 The jet engine device 300 has a jet engine 301 and a nozzle 302, and the jet engine device 400 has a jet engine 401 and a nozzle 402. Here, for example, the types of the jet engine devices 300 and 400 may be turbojets, turbofans, turboprops, turboshafts, or the like. The jet engine devices 300 and 400 may be rocket engines. Further, for example, the jet engine device 300 is a turbojet type jet engine, and the jet engine device 400 is a rocket engine. And a combination with a rocket engine.
 さて、ジェットエンジン装置300のノズル302,402は、車両201,~,車両206の各上部(例えば屋根の上など)で進行方向H1側に向かうように2台配設され、ジェットエンジン装置400は、車両201,~,車両206の各上部で進行方向-H1側に向かうように2台配設される。すなわち、車両201,~,車両206の個々に4台のジェットエンジン装置300,400を設けている。なお、後述するように、ジェットエンジン装置300は、鉄道車両100が矢印H1の方向に走行している際の非常時に使用するものであり、ジェットエンジン装置400は、鉄道車両100が矢印-H1の方向に走行している際の非常時に使用するものである。 Now, two nozzles 302, 402 of the jet engine device 300 are arranged at the upper portions of the vehicles 201,..., The vehicle 206 (for example, on the roof, etc.) so as to face the traveling direction H1 side. Two vehicles 201,..., And a vehicle 206 are arranged so as to be directed toward the traveling direction −H1 side. That is, four jet engine devices 300 and 400 are provided for each of the vehicles 201 to. As will be described later, the jet engine device 300 is used in an emergency when the railway vehicle 100 is traveling in the direction of the arrow H1, and the jet engine device 400 is used by the railway vehicle 100 in the direction of the arrow -H1. It is used in an emergency when traveling in the direction.
 また、隣接する車両に設けられたジェットエンジン装置300およびジェットエンジン装置400からの影響を受けないようにするため、ジェットエンジン装置300は、車両の屋根の外側に配置され、ジェットエンジン装置400は、車両の屋根の内側に配置される。 Further, in order not to be affected by the jet engine device 300 and the jet engine device 400 provided in the adjacent vehicle, the jet engine device 300 is disposed outside the roof of the vehicle. Located inside the roof of the vehicle.
 次に、鉄道車両100の構成について説明を行う。図3は鉄道車両100の構成の一例を示す模式図である。 Next, the configuration of the railway vehicle 100 will be described. FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of the configuration of the railway vehicle 100.
 図3に示すように、鉄道車両100は、主にブレーキ制御装置500、カウル開閉装置またはジェットエンジン装置突出機構580、圧縮空気を用いたブレーキ装置、ジェットエンジン装置300,400および図示しない力行用モータを含む。 As shown in FIG. 3, a railway vehicle 100 mainly includes a brake control device 500, a cowl opening / closing device or jet engine device protruding mechanism 580, a brake device using compressed air, jet engine devices 300 and 400, and a power running motor (not shown). including.
 ブレーキ制御装置500は、非常ブレーキ制御部550および車両速度を認識するための速度計測部560を内蔵する。なお、速度計測部560は図示しない車両の上位システムからの速度信号に基づき車両速度を認識してもかまわないし、車輪の回転数を図示しないセンサによって検出し、独自に車両速度を認識するものであってもかまわない。さて、ブレーキ制御装置500は、通常走行(非常ブレーキを作用させるとき以外の場合をいう。以下、同じ。)で速度を減速させる場合、力行用モータによる回生ブレーキを作用させるとともに、この回生ブレーキで不足するブレーキ力を発生させるため圧縮空気を用いたブレーキ装置570に指示を与え、その結果、鉄道車両100の速度が低下する。 The brake control device 500 includes an emergency brake control unit 550 and a speed measurement unit 560 for recognizing the vehicle speed. The speed measuring unit 560 may recognize the vehicle speed based on a speed signal from a host system (not shown), or may detect the number of wheel rotations by a sensor (not shown) and recognize the vehicle speed independently. It does not matter. When the brake control device 500 decelerates the speed during normal travel (except when the emergency brake is applied, the same applies hereinafter), the regenerative brake by the power running motor is applied and the regenerative brake is used. An instruction is given to the brake device 570 using compressed air to generate an insufficient braking force, and as a result, the speed of the railway vehicle 100 decreases.
 また、ブレーキ制御装置500は、非常時に非常ブレーキ制御部550からカウル開閉装置またはジェットエンジン装置突出機構580に指示を与え、ジェットエンジン装置300,400に指示を与える。その結果、ジェットエンジン装置300,400の一方から後述する出力DF(図5参照)が出力され、鉄道車両100の速度が低下する。また、ブレーキ制御装置500は、図示しない車両上位システムからのブレーキ信号と速度計測部560からの信号に基づいて非常ブレーキ制御部550を介してジェットエンジン装置および圧縮空気を用いたブレーキ装置570のいずれか一方または両方に指示を与える。 Also, the brake control device 500 gives an instruction to the cowl opening / closing device or the jet engine device protruding mechanism 580 from the emergency brake control unit 550 in an emergency, and gives an instruction to the jet engine devices 300 and 400. As a result, an output DF (see FIG. 5) described later is output from one of the jet engine devices 300 and 400, and the speed of the railway vehicle 100 decreases. Further, the brake control device 500 is a jet engine device or a brake device 570 using compressed air via the emergency brake control unit 550 based on a brake signal from a vehicle host system (not shown) and a signal from the speed measurement unit 560. Give instructions to either or both.
 次に、車両201を用いてジェットエンジン装置300,400の動作について説明を行う。図4および図5は、ジェットエンジン装置300,400の動作の一例を説明するための模式図である。 Next, the operation of the jet engine devices 300 and 400 using the vehicle 201 will be described. 4 and 5 are schematic diagrams for explaining an example of the operation of the jet engine devices 300 and 400. FIG.
 図4に示すように、通常の走行として、車両201がレールL上を矢印H1の方向に走行する場合について説明を行う。この場合、ジェットエンジン装置300およびジェットエンジン装置400は、車両201の内部に収納されており、走行時の空気抵抗を受けないように配置されている。 As shown in FIG. 4, the case where the vehicle 201 travels on the rail L in the direction of the arrow H1 will be described as normal travel. In this case, the jet engine device 300 and the jet engine device 400 are housed inside the vehicle 201 and are arranged so as not to receive air resistance during travel.
 そして、図5に示すように、非常時(緊急時)に、ジェットエンジン装置300およびジェットエンジン装置400が圧縮空気または火薬による爆発力等により矢印V1の方向に突出される。そして、ジェットエンジン装置300から出力DFが噴出される。その結果、車両201の矢印H1の方向の速度が出力DFにより低下される。また、ジェットエンジン装置300,400を突出させることにより、空気抵抗が生じ、出力DFによる減速度をさらに高めることができる。 Then, as shown in FIG. 5, in an emergency (emergency), the jet engine device 300 and the jet engine device 400 are protruded in the direction of the arrow V1 due to the explosive force by compressed air or explosives. Then, the output DF is ejected from the jet engine device 300. As a result, the speed of the vehicle 201 in the direction of the arrow H1 is reduced by the output DF. Further, by causing the jet engine devices 300 and 400 to protrude, air resistance is generated, and the deceleration due to the output DF can be further increased.
 続いて、図6は、図3のブレーキ制御装置500の非常ブレーキ制御部550の動作の一例を示すフローチャートである。ここで図1の鉄道車両100が矢印H1の方向に進んでいる場合について説明を行う。 Subsequently, FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing an example of the operation of the emergency brake control unit 550 of the brake control device 500 of FIG. Here, the case where the railway vehicle 100 of FIG. 1 is traveling in the direction of the arrow H1 will be described.
 まず、非常ブレーキ制御部550は、車両編成情報(N両)を取得する(ステップS1)。次に、非常ブレーキ制御部550は、非常時(すなわち非常ブレーキを作用させる必要があるとき)であるか否か判定を行う(ステップS2)。ここで、非常時であるか否かは、運転手による特定のブレーキ操作に基づき判断される。 First, the emergency brake control unit 550 acquires vehicle formation information (N cars) (step S1). Next, the emergency brake control unit 550 determines whether or not it is an emergency (that is, when an emergency brake needs to be applied) (step S2). Here, whether or not it is an emergency is determined based on a specific brake operation by the driver.
 ステップS2の処理において、非常時でないと判定された場合には、ステップS2の処理を繰返す(ステップS2のNo)。一方、ステップS2の処理において、非常時であると判定された場合(ステップS2のYes)には、カウル開閉装置またはジェットエンジン装置突出機構580(以下、単に突出機構580と呼ぶ)をONする(ステップS3)。それにより、ジェットエンジン装置300(進行方向がH1とは逆の場合は、ジェットエンジン装置400)が車両201の上部に突出される(図4および図5参照)。なお、突出機構580の構成を簡素化するため、ジェットエンジン装置300、400を常に同時に突出させても構わない。 If it is determined in step S2 that there is no emergency, step S2 is repeated (No in step S2). On the other hand, if it is determined in step S2 that there is an emergency (Yes in step S2), the cowl opening / closing device or the jet engine device protruding mechanism 580 (hereinafter simply referred to as the protruding mechanism 580) is turned on ( Step S3). As a result, the jet engine device 300 (jet engine device 400 when the traveling direction is opposite to H1) protrudes from the upper portion of the vehicle 201 (see FIGS. 4 and 5). In order to simplify the configuration of the protrusion mechanism 580, the jet engine devices 300 and 400 may always protrude at the same time.
 続いて、非常ブレーキ制御部550は、変数i=N(車両数)とする(ステップS4)。図1の鉄道車両100においては、6両編成なので、i=6となる。 Subsequently, the emergency brake control unit 550 sets the variable i = N (the number of vehicles) (step S4). In the railway vehicle 100 of FIG. 1, since it is a six-car train, i = 6.
 次に、非常ブレーキ制御部550は、i両目のジェットエンジン装置300をONする(ステップS5)。それにより最後尾の車両206のジェットエンジン装置300から出力DFが噴射される。 Next, the emergency brake control unit 550 turns on the i-th jet engine device 300 (step S5). As a result, the output DF is injected from the jet engine device 300 of the last vehicle 206.
 次いで、変数i=N-1を行い(ステップS6)、変数iが0となる(ステップS7のNo)まで、ステップS5からステップS7までの処理を繰り返し行う。それにより、鉄道車両100の最後尾の車両206、車両205、車両204、車両203、車両202から先頭の車両201の順でジェットエンジン装置300の出力を発生させることができる。 Next, the variable i = N−1 is performed (step S6), and the processing from step S5 to step S7 is repeated until the variable i becomes 0 (No in step S7). As a result, the output of the jet engine device 300 can be generated in the order of the rearmost vehicle 206, the vehicle 205, the vehicle 204, the vehicle 203, and the vehicle 202 to the first vehicle 201 of the railway vehicle 100.
 一方、ステップS7の処理において変数iが0であると判定した場合(ステップS7のYes)、速度計測部560からの速度値を確認し、所定の速度になっているか否かを判定する(ステップS8)。ここで、所定の速度とは、圧縮空気を用いたブレーキ装置570により所定距離内に停止可能な速度であってもよく、ほぼ停止(0Km/h)であってもよい。 On the other hand, when it is determined in the process of step S7 that the variable i is 0 (Yes in step S7), the speed value from the speed measurement unit 560 is confirmed to determine whether or not the predetermined speed is reached (step S7). S8). Here, the predetermined speed may be a speed at which the brake device 570 using compressed air can be stopped within a predetermined distance, or may be substantially stopped (0 Km / h).
 ステップS8の処理が終わるまで、ジェットエンジン装置300からの出力を継続させ(ステップS8のNo)、ステップS8の処理において所定の速度であると判定された場合、(ステップS8のYes)、ジェットエンジン装置300の出力を停止させる(ステップS9)。 Until the process of step S8 ends, the output from the jet engine device 300 is continued (No in step S8). When it is determined that the speed is a predetermined speed in the process of step S8 (Yes in step S8), the jet engine The output of the apparatus 300 is stopped (step S9).
 このように、鉄道車両100の最後尾の車両から先頭の車両の順でジェットエンジン装置300の出力をONさせることで、後方の車両が前方の車両を押すことによる鉄道車両の編成の座屈を防ぐことができる。 In this way, by turning on the output of the jet engine device 300 in the order from the last vehicle to the first vehicle of the railway vehicle 100, buckling of the formation of the railway vehicle due to the rear vehicle pushing the front vehicle. Can be prevented.
 なお、上記の実施の形態においては、鉄道車両100の最後尾の車両から先頭の車両の順でジェットエンジン装置300の出力をONさせる場合について説明したが、これに限定されず、鉄道車両100の最後尾の車両206の出力を100%の出力とし、車両205の出力を80%の出力から開始し、車両204の出力を60%の出力から開始し、車両203の出力を40%の出力から開始し、車両202の出力を20%の出力から開始し、車両201の出力を10%の出力から開始し、最終的に車両201から車両206までの出力を100%まで上昇させる制御を用いてもよい。 In the above-described embodiment, the case where the output of the jet engine device 300 is turned on in the order from the last vehicle to the first vehicle of the rail vehicle 100 has been described. The output of the last vehicle 206 is set to 100% output, the output of the vehicle 205 is started from 80% output, the output of the vehicle 204 is started from 60% output, and the output of the vehicle 203 is started from 40% output. Using the control to start the output of the vehicle 202 from the output of 20%, start the output of the vehicle 201 from the output of 10%, and finally increase the output from the vehicle 201 to the vehicle 206 to 100%. Also good.
 さらに、上記の出力を可変させる制御と、出力タイミングを最後尾から先頭の順で行う制御とを兼用してもよい。また、ジェットエンジン装置300,400は車速が所定速度になるまで噴射する場合について説明したが、これに限定されず、所定時間連続噴射または所定時間間欠噴射するものであってもよい。 Furthermore, the control for varying the output and the control for performing the output timing from the tail to the head may be combined. Moreover, although jet engine apparatus 300,400 demonstrated the case where it injects until a vehicle speed becomes predetermined speed, it is not limited to this, You may inject continuously for predetermined time, or intermittently for predetermined time.
(他の例)
 次いで、車両201aを用いてジェットエンジン装置300,400の他の動作について説明を行う。図7および図8は、ジェットエンジン装置300,400の動作の他の例を説明するための模式図である。
(Other examples)
Next, other operations of the jet engine devices 300 and 400 will be described using the vehicle 201a. 7 and 8 are schematic diagrams for explaining another example of the operation of the jet engine devices 300 and 400. FIG.
 図7に示すように、通常の走行として、車両201aがレールL上を矢印H1の方向に走行する場合について説明を行う。この場合、ジェットエンジン装置300およびジェットエンジン装置400は、車両201aの上部(屋根面)に設けられ、その周囲にカウル220が設けられている。したがって、車両201aにおいては、カウル220によりジェットエンジン装置300およびジェットエンジン装置400は、通常走行時の空気抵抗を受けないようになっている。 As shown in FIG. 7, the case where the vehicle 201a travels on the rail L in the direction of the arrow H1 will be described as normal travel. In this case, the jet engine device 300 and the jet engine device 400 are provided on the upper part (roof surface) of the vehicle 201a, and a cowl 220 is provided around the upper part (roof surface). Therefore, in the vehicle 201a, the jet engine device 300 and the jet engine device 400 are prevented from receiving air resistance during normal traveling by the cowl 220.
 そして、図8に示すように、非常時(緊急時)に、カウル220が圧縮空気または火薬の爆発力等により車両201a内の矢印-V1の方向に収納される。そして、ジェットエンジン装置300から出力DFが噴出される。その結果、車両201の矢印H1の方向の速度が出力DFにより低下される。 Then, as shown in FIG. 8, in an emergency (emergency), the cowl 220 is stored in the direction of arrow -V1 in the vehicle 201a by the explosive force of compressed air or explosives. Then, the output DF is ejected from the jet engine device 300. As a result, the speed of the vehicle 201 in the direction of the arrow H1 is reduced by the output DF.
(さらに他の例)
 次いで、車両201bを用いてジェットエンジン装置300,400のさらに他の動作について説明を行う。図9および図10は、ジェットエンジン装置300,400の動作のさらに他の例を説明するための模式図である。
(Still other examples)
Next, still another operation of the jet engine devices 300 and 400 will be described using the vehicle 201b. 9 and 10 are schematic views for explaining still another example of the operation of the jet engine devices 300 and 400. FIG.
 図9に示すように、通常の走行として、車両201bがレールL上を矢印H1の方向に走行する場合について説明を行う。この場合、ジェットエンジン装置300およびジェットエンジン装置400は、車両201aの上部(屋根面)に設けられ、その周囲にカウル220bが設けられている。またカウル220bには、ジェットエンジン装置300およびジェットエンジン装置400のノズル302,402の周囲を開閉する開口蓋223b,224bが設けられている。したがって、車両201bにおいては、カウル220bおよび開口蓋223b,224bにより走行時の空気抵抗を受けないようになっている。 As shown in FIG. 9, the case where the vehicle 201b travels on the rail L in the direction of the arrow H1 will be described as normal travel. In this case, the jet engine device 300 and the jet engine device 400 are provided on the upper portion (roof surface) of the vehicle 201a, and a cowl 220b is provided around the upper portion (roof surface). The cowl 220b is provided with opening lids 223b and 224b for opening and closing the periphery of the nozzles 302 and 402 of the jet engine device 300 and the jet engine device 400. Therefore, in the vehicle 201b, the cowl 220b and the opening lids 223b and 224b do not receive air resistance during travel.
 そして、図10に示すように、非常時(緊急時)に、開口蓋223b,224bが圧縮空気または火薬の爆発力等により車両201b内の矢印-V1の方向に収納される。そして、ジェットエンジン装置300から出力DFが噴出される。その結果、車両201の矢印H1の方向の速度が出力DFにより低下される。 Then, as shown in FIG. 10, in an emergency (emergency), the opening lids 223b and 224b are accommodated in the direction of arrow -V1 in the vehicle 201b by the explosive force of compressed air or explosives. Then, the output DF is ejected from the jet engine device 300. As a result, the speed of the vehicle 201 in the direction of the arrow H1 is reduced by the output DF.
 上記の実施の形態においては、ジェットエンジン装置300,400をそれぞれ車両に対して2台ずつ設けることとしているが、これに限定されず、1台または3台以上ずつであってもよく、更にジェットエンジン装置300または400のいずれか一方だけ(環状線などを走行する場合などは、先頭車両は常に同じであるため)であってもよい。 In the above embodiment, two jet engine devices 300 and 400 are provided for each vehicle. However, the present invention is not limited to this. One or three or more jet engine devices may be provided. Only one of the engine devices 300 or 400 may be used (when the vehicle travels on an annular line or the like, the leading vehicle is always the same).
 さらに、ジェットエンジン装置300,400のノズル302,402のみがそれぞれ進行方向(矢印H1および矢印-H1)に対向すればよく、ノズルまたは回転装置(図示しない)を備えてジェットエンジン装置自体を回転等させる場合には、複数台のジェットエンジン装置を一台にまとめて使用してもよい。なお、回転装置としては、電動モータ、油圧又は空圧モータなどを駆動源とした回転機構を持ったものを用いることができる。また、ジェットエンジン装置を一台にまとめて使用しない場合は、ジェットエンジン装置300,400の推力を同時に利用できるため、車両として同じ推力を得ようとしたとき、ジェットエンジン装置300、400のそれぞれは小型化することができ、車両への設置の自由度が向上する。 Furthermore, only the nozzles 302 and 402 of the jet engine devices 300 and 400 need to face each other in the traveling direction (arrow H1 and arrow -H1), and the jet engine device itself is rotated by a nozzle or a rotation device (not shown). In this case, a plurality of jet engine devices may be used together. As the rotation device, a rotation device having a rotation mechanism using an electric motor, a hydraulic pressure or a pneumatic motor as a drive source can be used. In addition, when the jet engine devices are not used together, the thrusts of the jet engine devices 300 and 400 can be used at the same time. Therefore, when trying to obtain the same thrust as the vehicle, each of the jet engine devices 300 and 400 The size can be reduced, and the degree of freedom of installation in the vehicle is improved.
 さらに、ジェットエンジン装置300,400のノズル302,402の前方に、スラストリバーサ(図示しない)が展開可能に設けられていてもよく、この場合には、複数台のジェットエンジン装置を一台にまとめて使用してもよい。なお、スラストリバーサとは、ジェットエンジンの噴射ノズルまたはロケットエンジンの噴出口を蓋をするように設けることで、噴射ノズルまたは噴出口とは逆方向に推力を発生させるものである。なお、一台にまとめて使用しない場合は、ジェットエンジン装置300,400の一方ではスラストリバーサを展開し、他方では展開しないことにより、ジェットエンジン装置300,400の推力を同時に利用できるため、車両として同じ推力を得ようとしたとき、ジェットエンジン装置300、400は小型化でき、車両への設置の自由度が向上する。 Furthermore, a thrust reverser (not shown) may be provided in front of the nozzles 302, 402 of the jet engine devices 300, 400 so that they can be deployed. In this case, a plurality of jet engine devices are combined into one. May be used. The thrust reverser is a device that generates thrust in the direction opposite to the injection nozzle or the jet outlet by providing the jet nozzle of the jet engine or the jet outlet of the rocket engine as a lid. If the jet engine devices 300 and 400 are not used together, the thrust reverser is deployed on one side of the jet engine devices 300 and 400, and the thrust of the jet engine devices 300 and 400 is not utilized on the other side. When trying to obtain the same thrust, the jet engine devices 300 and 400 can be reduced in size, and the degree of freedom of installation in the vehicle is improved.
 また、ジェットエンジン装置300,400は車両201,~,206の上部(屋根)に設けられているとしたが、これに限定されず、既存の駅舎の設備や対向列車との干渉等の問題が解消されれば、車両201,~,206の側面または下方に設けてもよい。 Further, the jet engine devices 300 and 400 are provided on the upper parts (roofs) of the vehicles 201 to 206. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and problems such as interference with existing station building facilities and oncoming trains may occur. If the problem is solved, it may be provided on the side surface or below the vehicles 201,.
 なお、上記の実施の形態においては、ジェットエンジン装置300から出力DFを噴射することとしたが、これに限定されず、図1の鉄道車両が矢印-H1の方向に走行している際に非常時となった場合には、ジェットエンジン装置400を用いて非常停止を行うことができる。 In the above-described embodiment, the output DF is injected from the jet engine apparatus 300. However, the present invention is not limited to this. When the railway vehicle in FIG. 1 is traveling in the direction of the arrow -H1, When the time comes, an emergency stop can be performed using the jet engine device 400.
 また、鉄道車両100の走行は、直線に限定されるものではなく、曲線(カーブ)の場合もある。この場合、非常ブレーキ制御部550は、ジェットエンジン装置300の左右バランスを考慮して制御してもよく、ノズル302が回動する場合には、回動方向のバランスを考慮して制御してもよい。その結果、鉄道車両100に加わるモーメント(遠心力)を考慮した停止動作を実現することができる。 Further, the traveling of the railway vehicle 100 is not limited to a straight line, but may be a curved line. In this case, the emergency brake control unit 550 may be controlled in consideration of the left / right balance of the jet engine device 300, and may be controlled in consideration of the balance in the rotation direction when the nozzle 302 is rotated. Good. As a result, it is possible to realize a stop operation in consideration of the moment (centrifugal force) applied to the railway vehicle 100.
 以上のように、本実施の形態におけるジェットエンジン装置300,400のノズル302,402が鉄道車両100の進行方向に対向するように設けられるので、高速で走行する鉄道車両100の車両201,~,車両206の進行方向(矢印H1の方向)に対向してジェットエンジン装置300の推進力(出力DF)が作用し、高速で走行する鉄道車両100の車両201,~,車両206の進行方向(矢印-H1の方向)に対向してジェットエンジン装置400の推進力(出力DF)が作用するので、鉄道車両100の速度を的確に低下させることができる。その結果、高速で走行する鉄道車両100を予め規定された距離内で停止させることができる。 As described above, since the nozzles 302 and 402 of the jet engine apparatuses 300 and 400 according to the present embodiment are provided so as to face the traveling direction of the railway vehicle 100, the vehicles 201,. The propulsive force (output DF) of the jet engine device 300 acts against the traveling direction of the vehicle 206 (the direction of the arrow H1), and the traveling direction (arrows) of the vehicles 201,. Since the propulsive force (output DF) of the jet engine device 400 acts in the direction opposite to (−H1 direction), the speed of the railway vehicle 100 can be accurately reduced. As a result, the railway vehicle 100 traveling at a high speed can be stopped within a predetermined distance.
 また、カウル220,220bおよび突出機構580により非常ブレーキを使用しない場合には、鉄道車両100の空気抵抗を最小限に抑制することができる。また、突出機構580において圧縮空気および火薬の爆発力を使用することにより、新たに油圧機構またはモータを使用する場合と比較して、車両重量の増加を抑制することができる。 Further, when the emergency brake is not used by the cowls 220 and 220b and the protruding mechanism 580, the air resistance of the railway vehicle 100 can be minimized. Further, by using the explosive force of compressed air and explosives in the protrusion mechanism 580, an increase in vehicle weight can be suppressed as compared with a case where a hydraulic mechanism or a motor is newly used.
 さらに、非常ブレーキ制御部550により鉄道車両100の先頭車両から最後尾車両に向かう方向で、ジェットエンジン装置300,400の出力が高くなるよう制御されるので、非常ブレーキ制御部550が作動しても、鉄道車両100の編成の座屈を防止することができる。同様に、非常ブレーキ制御部550により鉄道車両100の最後尾車両から先頭車両に向かう順で、ジェットエンジン装置300,400の出力を開始するよう制御されるので、非常ブレーキ制御部550が作動しても、鉄道車両100の編成の座屈を防止することができる。 Furthermore, since the emergency brake control unit 550 controls the output of the jet engine devices 300 and 400 to increase in the direction from the first vehicle to the last vehicle of the railway vehicle 100, even if the emergency brake control unit 550 is activated. The buckling of the knitting of the railway vehicle 100 can be prevented. Similarly, the emergency brake control unit 550 is controlled to start the output of the jet engine devices 300 and 400 in the order from the last vehicle of the railway vehicle 100 to the first vehicle, so that the emergency brake control unit 550 is activated. In addition, buckling of the knitting of the railway vehicle 100 can be prevented.
 また、圧縮空気を用いたブレーキ装置570を併用することにより、通常時は力行用モータによる回生ブレーキと圧縮空気を用いたブレーキ装置で車両の速度を低減させることができ、非常時にはジェットエンジン装置300,400を作動させて鉄道車両100の速度を低減させることができる。 Further, by using the brake device 570 using compressed air in combination, the speed of the vehicle can be reduced by a regenerative brake using a power running motor and a brake device using compressed air in a normal state. , 400 can be operated to reduce the speed of the railway vehicle 100.
