Description

The steel rail near laser visual dynamic method
Technical field
The invention belongs to field of measuring technique, relate to a kind of noncontact dynamic measurement method of steel rail wearing integrative parameter.
Background technology
The situation and the security of railway are closely related, and be particularly more important for bullet train.The regular detection of rail is very important for rationalization scheme and the low maintenance cost of maintenance.Help to formulate the better maintaining timetable at rail abrasion with being out of shape to measure in early days, remake emergency treatment when observing unsafe condition to avoid waiting, on the other hand, safeguard in advance to make limited manpower and instrument and equipment resource obtain better utilization, thereby reduced cost.In addition, correct maintenance has reduced because of the bad noise pollution that is produced that contacts between wheel and the rail.The greatly developing of China railways speed-raising in recent years and heavy haul transport, passenger-cargo freight volume and rate of traffic flow increase substantially, and cause rail wear serious day by day.How efficiently and accurately to measure the rail wear value is an important subject of domestic and international railroad always.
In order to guarantee railway operation safety, require under the condition that does not influence train running, will at least once overhaul every month to rail.During the State's Ninth Five-Year Plan period, China railways rail mileage reaches more than 68000 kilometer, does not have suitable measurement means so far.For a long time, domestic measurement to rail wear all is to adopt hand dipping, detects its section loss with special-purpose slide calliper rule artificial sampling.This mode inefficiency expends a large amount of manpower and materials, and is in the highly dangerous.Owing in measurement, introduced gauger's human factor inevitably, directly influenced precision and the reliability measured.Hand dipping can not adapt to the development of China railways cause.Therefore, a kind of self-operated measuring unit of rail wear fast and accurately of development has very big realistic meaning.
Domestic and international many research institutions and scholar study the detection method of rail wear, and have successfully developed various measurement mechanisms, according to the difference of detection mode, roughly can be divided into contact and non-contact detection.The special-purpose gauge measurement of rail wear based of the MiniProf device of U.S. GreenWood company development adopts contact mode point-to-point measurement rail profile, compares with nominal contour then.Wroclaw University of Science and Technology has developed similar contact high precision rail profile measurement of wear system.At home, railway Weights and Measures Bureau in Harbin has developed a kind of similar external slide calliper rule formula measurement of rail wear based device.Coutact type steel rail measurement of wear The measuring precision height, but only be fit to static measurement, complicated operation, efficiency of measurement is low, uses when being mainly used in laboratory study rail anti-wear performance, is not suitable for on-line measurement.
