- a first and a second light source generally of different colours, for instance, green and red
- each light source is generally obtained from an incandescent lamp, powered by a respective duplex cable, carrying the supply voltage for the said light source.
- each signalling device is supplied by a multipolar cable extending from the central station to the signalling device.
- Each multipolar cable comprises a number of duplex cables, which is twofold the number of the light sources contained in the railroad signalling device.
- German patent application DE 32 23779 describes a control system for railroad colour light signalling devices as described in the preamble of claim 1.
- Aim of this invention is the embodiment of a control system for railroad colour light signalling devices, which may overcome the drawbacks of the known systems.
- System 1 comprises at least one central control station 4 communicating with at least one peripheral station 7 through a bipolar cable 9, which can extend for as long as some kilometres.
- Each peripheral station 7 is further coupled with a respective railroad signalling device 11 (railroad signal).

- railroad signal 11 is fitted with three light sources (conveniently comprising incandescent lamps) 13g, 13y and 13r.
- Light sources 13g, 13y and 13r are housed inside a sealed casing 15 (schematically shown) and are coupled with respective coloured filters (not shown) to generate respective green, yellow and red light beams.
- green, yellow or red light source reference will be made to light sources 13g, 13y and 13r, respectively.
- a yellow light beam can correspond to a slow-down signal (for example, because the next signalling device is red).
- Central station 4 is capable of being housed inside a control building (not shown) of a railway station (not shown) and peripheral station 7 is capable of being located in the service area (not shown) of the railway station, cable 9 extending along the service area.
- Central station 4 comprises a signal generator 18, capable of outputting a square wave periodic alternating signal S.
- signal S can have three different frequencies F1, F2, F3, for example, equal to 250 Hz, 364 Hz and 556 Hz respectively.
- Signal S output frequency is selected on the basis of the digital value of a word D at a control input 20 of signal generator 18.
- a signal with frequency F1 250 Hz
- a signal with frequency F2 364 Hz
- a signal with frequency F3 556 Hz
- Central station 4 further comprises a power amplifier 22, which receives, at its input, signal S, generated by signal generator 18, and sends an output signal to a voltage elevator, conveniently obtained from a primary winding of a transformer 25.
- the secondary winding of transformer 25 communicates with an input terminal 9a of bipolar cable 9.
- Transformer 25 has a 1:3 voltage ratio and is capable of increasing the alternating signal at output of amplifier 22 (approximately 50 volts) sending on cable 9 a square wave control signal having a voltage of approximately 150 volts.
- Amplifier 22 has an enabling input 27 (ENABLE) whose function will be expounded later on.
- Peripheral station 7 comprises a voltage reduction device, conveniently comprising a transformer 29, the primary winding whereof communicates with an output terminal 9b of bipolar cable 9.
- Transformer 29 has a 10:1 voltage ratio.
- Peripheral station 7 further comprises three band-pass filters 31, 32 and 33, fitted with respective inputs 31a, 32a, 33a, communicating with a first output terminal 34 of the secondary winding of transformer 29.
- Outputs 31b, 32b and 33b of band-pass filters 31, 32 and 33 communicate with first terminals 13r', 13y', 13g', respectively, of incandescence lamps 13r, 13y, 13g (respectively red, yellow and green).
- Incandescence lamps 13r, 13y, 13g have second terminals 13r", 13y", 13g", communicating, through a power line 35, with a second output terminal 40 of the secondary winding of transformer 29.
- Filter 31 comprises a coil 37, whereof a first terminal communicates with input 31a and a second terminal communicates with a first terminal of a capacitor 38.
- Capacitor 38 is further provided with a second terminal, connected to a first terminal of a resistor 39, a second terminal whereof communicates with output 31b.
- coil 37 has an inductance value of 33 mH and capacitor 38 has a capacitance of approximately 12 microfarads.
- Filter 32 comprises a coil 41, whereof a first terminal communicates with input 32a and a second terminal communicates with a first terminal of a capacitor 42.
- a second terminal of capacitor 42 is connected to a first terminal of a resistor 43, a second terminal whereof communicates with output 32b.
- coil 41 has an inductance value of 33 mH and capacitor 42 has a capacitance of approximately 6 microfarads.
- Filter 33 comprises a coil 45, whereof a first terminal communicates with input 33a and a second terminal communicates with a first terminal of a capacitor 46.
- a second terminal of capacitor 46 is connected to a first terminal of a resistor 47, a second terminal whereof communicates with output 33b.
- coil 45 has an inductance value of 33 mH and capacitor 46 has a capacitance of approximately 2 microfarads.
- Resistors 39, 43 and 47 have a resistance of a few ohms and are introduced to calibrate filters 31, 32, 33, as a function of the resistance of lamps 13r, 13y and 13g.
- Filter 31 (supplying the red light source) has a central frequency equal to approximately 250 Hz
- filter 33 (supplying the yellow light source) has a central frequency equal to approximately 364 Hz
- filter 32 (supplying the green light source) has a central frequency equal to approximately 556 Hz.
- FIG. 2 there are shown (approximately) transfer functions H 1 , H 2 and H 3 of filters 31, 32 and 33.
- Central control station 4 cooperates with a control and monitor circuit 50 (described in detail hereinafter), which controls signal generator 18 and power amplifier 22 and receives, through a line 52, amplified standards of input signal S, taken at output of the amplifier 22.
- a control and monitor circuit 50 (described in detail hereinafter), which controls signal generator 18 and power amplifier 22 and receives, through a line 52, amplified standards of input signal S, taken at output of the amplifier 22.
- circuit 50 supplies digital word D1 (remote control) to signal generator 18.
- D1 remote control
- Signal generator 18 therefore generates a square wave signal with a 250 Hz frequency F1 which, further to its amplification by amplifier 22 and a voltage boost by transformer 25, is sent out on cable 9.
- the control signal undergoes a voltage drop by transformer 29 and a square wave signal S1 is sent to filters 31, 32 and 33 with a 250 Hz frequency and a voltage value of approximately 15 volts.
- Signal S1 travels through filter 31, which is tuned with the frequency value (250 Hz) of said signal S1; in this manner, through incandescence lamp 13r there flows a current ir (in the embodiment described equal to approximately 1.63 amperes), which causes lamp 13r to turn on (red light source on).
- ir in the embodiment described equal to approximately 1.63 amperes
- Filters 32 and 33 have high impedance values for signal S1, and currents iy and ig (in the embodiment described equal to approximately 0.31 and 0.11 amperes, respectively), flowing through lamps 13y and 13g, are not sufficient to turn on their respective yellow and green light sources.
- circuit 50 supplies digital word D2 to signal generator 18, which generates a square wave signal with a 364 Hz frequency F2.
- a square wave signal S2 is therefore conveyed to filters 31, 32 and 33, with a 364 Hz frequency and a voltage value of approximately 15 volts.
- Signal S2 travels through filter 32, which is tuned with the frequency value (364 Hz) of said signal S2 and through the filament (not shown) of incandescence lamp 13g there flows a current iy (in the embodiment described equal to approximately 1.63 amperes), which causes lamp 13y to turn on (yellow light source on).
- iy in the embodiment described equal to approximately 1.63 amperes
- Filters 31 and 33 have high impedance values for 364 Hz signal S2, and currents ir and ig (in the embodiment described equal to approximately 0.4 and 0.16 amperes, respectively), flowing through lamps 13r and 13g, are not sufficient to turn on their respective red and green light sources.
- circuit 50 supplies digital word D3 to signal generator 18, which generates a square wave signal with a 556 Hz frequency F3.
- a square wave signal S3 is therefore conveyed to filters 31, 32 and 33, with a 556 Hz frequency and a voltage value of approximately 15 volts.
- Signal S3 travels through filter 33, which is tuned with the frequency value (556 Hz) of said signal S3 and through the filament (not shown) of incandescence lamp 13g there flows a current ig (in the embodiment described equal to approximately 1.62 amperes), which causes lamp 13g to turn on (green light source on).
- a current ig in the embodiment described equal to approximately 1.62 amperes
- Filters 31 and 32 have high impedance values for signal S3, and currents ir and iy (in the embodiment described equal to approximately 0.17 and 0.24 amperes, respectively), flowing through lamps 13r and 13y, are not sufficient to turn on their respective red and yellow light sources.
- the system according to the invention is of the safety type, i.e., in the event of failure, the system generates such signals, as are capable of preventing vehicles from travelling along the railroad tracks.
- a possible failure of system 1 can consist in the deterioration of capacitors 38, 42, 46 of filters 31, 32, 33, consequently leading to a reduction in the capacitance of said capacitors 38, 42, 46 (on well-known physical grounds, no increase in the capacitance of capacitors can take place further to deterioration of the relevant component).
- the decrease in capacitance corresponds to an increase in the central frequency of the respective filter; in this way, transfer functions H 1 , H 2 , H 3 (Fig. 2) of filters 31, 32, 33 can be shifted (positions indicated by numbers H d1 , H d2 , H d3 ) towards higher frequencies. This is the reason why, should the transfer function of a filter shift to the frequency range of the transfer function adjacent thereto and pertaining to another filter, there is turned on the light source which is representative of the more restrictive condition, with relation to travelling along the track.
- transfer function H 1 shifts to the neighbourhood of transfer function H 2 and the red light source is activated (engaged track).
- transfer function H 2 shifts to the neighbourhood of transfer function H 3 and the yellow light source is activated (slow down).
- transfer function H 3 shifts towards higher frequencies and the green light source is turned off.
- coil 45 is inserted directly between the secondary winding of transformer 29 and incandescence lamp 13g.
- coil 45 has such an impedance value, that the current flowing through said coil 45 (and, consequently, also through lamp 15g) is lower than the starting current (approximately 0.6 amperes) of lamp 13g.
- incandescence lamp 13r, 13y, 13g is uncoupled, with respect to each other. Being this the case, incandescence lamp 13r, 13y, 13g is forthwith turned off.
- capacitor 38, 42, 46 is inserted directly between the secondary winding of transformer 29 and incandescence lamp 13r, 13y, 13g.
- capacitor 38, 42, 46 allows for a current ir, iy, ig to flow through, such current being insufficient to turn on respective incandescence lamp 13r, 13y, 13g.
- capacitor 46 is inserted directly between the secondary winding of transformer 29 and incandescence lamp 13g. Capacitor 46 allows for a current ig to flow through, such current being insufficient to turn on the green light source.
- Coil 37, 41, 45 is obtained by winding on a magnetic core (not shown) a number of turns of insulated wire (not shown) and by separating each subsequent turn by means of high insulation foils (rigidity higher than 4 kV); given the foregoing, a short circuit of coil 37, 41, 45 is statistically highly unlikely.
- the green light source can be turned on, in connection with the output of the 250 Hz signal (capable of activating the red light source), only in the event of a short circuit of both capacitor 46 and coil 45 (which, statistically, is a highly unlikely event).
- incandescence lamps 13g and 13r are turned on simultaneously, and the supply current flowing along cable 9 from station 4 to station 7 is twice the current supplied to turn on one single light source.
- control of railroad signal 11 is carried out by means of one single bipolar cable 9, which is neither expensive nor bulky or difficult to install. Furthermore, no signalling errors are possible owing to leakages along cable 9, which is of the bipolar type. Moreover, the system described hereinabove may undergo both changes and alterations falling within the scope of protection of the invention.
- Fig. 3 shows an alternative embodiment 1a of the system shown in Fig. 1.

- railroad signal 69 is of the so-called “da binario" (in the track) type, and comprises an outer casing, in the shape of a parallelepiped, a front wall 78 whereof is substantially trapezoidal/rectangular and is fitted with three openings, through which the light given out by incandescence lamps 67s, 67g and 67k is let out.

- lamp 67g is capable of conveying a free-track signal
- lamp 67s is capable of conveying, when on, an engaged track signal.
- Filter 61 comprises a coil 80, whereof a first terminal communicates with input 61a and a second terminal communicates with a first terminal of a capacitor 81.
- a second terminal of capacitor 81 is connected to a first terminal of a resistor 82, a second terminal whereof communicates with output 61b.
- Filter 62 comprises a coil 84, whereof a first terminal communicates with input 62a and a second terminal communicates with a first terminal of a capacitor 85.
- a second terminal of capacitor 85 is connected to a first terminal of a resistor 86, a second terminal whereof communicates with output 62b.
- Filter 61 supplying lamp 67s has a central frequency which is equal to 250 Hz and filter 62 supplying lamp 67g has a central frequency which is equal to 364 Hz.
- Operation of the system shown in Fig. 3 is similar to that of system 1, previously described, in that, according to the frequency value of signal S, generated by generator 18a, namely, whether 250 Hz or 364 Hz, incandescence lamps 67s or 67g (engaged track - free track), respectively, are supplied and caused to turn on.
- Lamp 67k instead, is directly connected to secondary winding 58b of transformer 58, so that it is constantly supplied (and on), both when generator 18a generates a 250 Hz signal and when it generates a 336 Hz signal.

- Circuit 50 comprises an interface circuit 90, the input whereof is connected to line 52, and which is fitted with two outputs 90a, 90b, communicating with a first microcontroller 92 and a second microcontroller 93, respectively.
- Interface circuit 90 is capable of reducing the voltage signal at its input, supplying to microcontrollers 92, 93 a square wave signal with reduced voltage and a frequency, which is equivalent to that of the signal generated by generator 18.
- Microcontrollers 92, 93 further receive, at their input, digital word D and are capable of calculating the frequency value corresponding to such a word D.
