Definitions

  • the invention relates to a tone-frequency meshed track circuit according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a track circuit is known from DE 32 35 283 C2.
  • Faulty vacancies of a track section are prevented in that the receivers of the track circuit detect the alternating frequency signal fed in for vacant and occupied messages, the vacant announcement of the track section then being made dependent on both the voltage and the current of the alternating frequency signal exceeding predetermined values.
  • the object of the present invention is to design a meshed track circuit according to the preamble of patent claim 1 so that when the rail breaks with a galvanic separation, an occupancy message is sent to the track circuit.

  • high-resistance chokes in the meshing of a neutral rail ensures that only the slightest track currents can reach the track circuit receiver unintentionally via the additional neutral conductor (s).
  • the particular advantage of the meshed track circuit according to the invention is that the chokes used do not have to be individually matched to the different frequencies of the signal currents used in the adjacent track sections, but that their filter characteristics can be designed such that they flow all possible over the additional conductors Vaporize the track circuit signal currents in such a way that it is no longer possible to respond to the respective track circuit receiver. This makes it possible to inexpensively manufacture the chokes provided according to the invention in large numbers and to use them as desired.
  • the conductors of the chokes provided according to the invention should consist of a copper or aluminum alloy.

  • FIG. 5 shows the electrical connection of one end of the choke winding and in FIG. 6 a device for grounding the base plate carrying the choke.
  • Figure 1 shows schematically the rails 1 and 2 of a track.
  • This track is divided by S-shaped rail connectors SV1 and SV2 into adjacent track sections Gl, G2 and G3, each of which is to be monitored for its free and occupied status by an associated track circuit.
  • the track circuit assigned to the track section G2 consists of a transmitter S arranged at one end of the track circuit, a tuning assembly BG1 and the rail connector SV1, tracks 1 and 2 and the rail connector SV2 located at the other end of the track circuit, a tuning module BG2 and a receiver E.
  • the tuning modules BG1 and BG2 are matched to the signal frequency of the track circuit to be monitored; this differs from the signal frequencies in the adjacent track sections.
  • the receiver E As long as the receiver E receives a sufficiently high level of the signal current from the transmitter S, it reports the associated track circuit freely. When the track circuit is occupied, the wheel sets of the vehicles that have entered the track section short the two rails of the track circuit, as a result of which the signal level available at the receiver falls below the predetermined threshold value. The receiver then reports that the track circuit is occupied. A occupancy message is also triggered when at least one rail is interrupted, indicated schematically in the drawing by an assumed rail break SB in rail 1.

Abstract

Selon l'invention, dans un circuit de voie maillé, d'éventuelles ruptures de rails (SB) risquent d'être masquées par le maillage. L'invention vise à effectuer les maillages par l'intermédiaire de bobines de choc (dr1,Dr2) qui sont de basse impédance pour le courant de retour de traction, mais d'impédance si élevée pour le courant de signaux du circuit de voie concerné, qu'une réponse inexacte du récepteur de circuit de voie (E) en cas de rupture de rail (1) n'est plus possible par l'intermédiaire d'un conducteur neutre (N) supplémentaire. Il n'est plus nécessaire d'adapter individuellement la caractéristique de filtrage des bobines de choc aux fréquences des signaux des circuits de voie. Les bobines de choc sont à bande si large qu'elles atténuent suffisamment intensément les fréquences des signaux de tous les circuits de voie d'une installation ferroviaire.
