Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Datenübertragung von einem Schienenfahrzeug an eine Abfrageeinrichtung mittels eines passiven Transponders sowie eines Elementes zur kraftschlüssigen Befestigung des Transponders an einer frei wählbaren Stelle einer Achse (4) des Schienenfahrzeuges.The invention relates to a device for data transmission from a rail vehicle to an interrogator by means of a passive transponder and an element for frictional attachment of the transponder to a freely selectable Position of an axle (4) of the rail vehicle.
Für Betreiber von Schienenverkehrsfahrzeugen ist es von grosser Wichtigkeit, jederzeit
einen Überblick über die im Betriebseinsatz befindlichen Radsätze zu haben. Insbesondere
bei der regelmässigen Erfassung von Radparametern (z.B. beim Überprüfen des
Verschleisszustandes eines Rades) ist eine schnelle und zweifelsfreie Identifizierung
des Radsatzes von Bedeutung.
Bislang geschieht dies üblicherweise über eine Identifizierungsnummer, die auf einem
die Achse des Radsatzes umfassenden Stahlband eingraviert bzw. mittels Schlagwerkzeugen
eingeprägt ist und optisch abgelesen wird. Dies erweist sich in der Praxis immer
wieder als nachteilig, da die Stahlbänder aufgrund der herrschenden Betriebsbedingungen
stets stark verschmutzt sind und erst gesäubert werden müssen, damit ein Ablesen
der Identifikationsnummer möglich wird. Ebenso ist es nachteilig, dass die Radsätze
zum Zeitpunkt des Ablesevorganges nicht notwendigerweise eine günstige Position
hinsichtlich der optischen Ablesbarkeit durch das Instandhaltungspersonal einnehmen.
Wenn das Stahlband nicht manuell in eine brauchbare Ablese-Position verdreht werden
kann, müsste im Extremfall der Radsatz als ganzes gedreht werden, was in Bezug auf
den eigentlich sehr kurzen Ablesevorgang bei weitem zu zeitaufwendig ist. Zudem fallen
die Stahlbänder beim Versuch eines manuellen Verdrehens immer wieder ab, da sie
zum einen wegen Verschmutzung oder Alterung fest sitzen und zum anderen einer
Materialermüdung unterliegen.
Zur Behebung dieser Nachteile sowie zur Automatisierung der Radsatz-ldentifikation
sind bereits einige Vorschläge zur Nutzung von Transpondern bekannt geworden.
So lehrt DE 297 20 652 beispielsweise eine elektromagnetische Reflexionseinrichtung
zur automatischen Identifizierung von Schienenfahrzeugen, deren Radsätze eine zur
Gleismitte hin fest beabstandete Haltevorrichtung zur Aufnahme eines mit einer Ringantenne
versehenen Transponders. Als entsprechende Haltevorrichtung wird eine
Spannschelle mit Spannschraube bzw. ein Spannband mit Spannschloss offenbart.
Dem Fachmann erschliesst es sich jedoch nicht, in welcher Weise diese Haltevorrichtung
nebst Transponder in Anbetracht der extremen Umwelteinflüsse und stark korrosiv
wirkenden Umgebungsbedingungen zur Erzielung einer wirtschaftlich akzeptablen Mindest-Dauerfestigkeit
ausgeführt werden sollen. For rail vehicle operators, it is very important to have an overview of the wheelsets in operation at all times. Especially with the regular recording of wheel parameters (eg when checking the state of wear of a wheel) a quick and unequivocal identification of the wheelset is important.
So far, this is usually done via an identification number, which is engraved on a steel strip comprising the axle of the wheelset or stamped by striking tools and is visually read. This proves to be in practice again and again as disadvantageous because the steel strips are always heavily contaminated due to the prevailing operating conditions and need to be cleaned first, so that a reading of the identification number is possible. It is also disadvantageous that the wheelsets do not necessarily occupy a favorable position with regard to the optical readability by the maintenance personnel at the time of the reading process. If the steel strip can not be twisted manually into a useful read-out position, in extreme cases, the wheelset would have to be rotated as a whole, which is far too time-consuming in relation to the actually very short reading process. In addition, the steel bands fall during the attempt of a manual twisting again and again, as they are firmly on the one hand because of contamination or aging and on the other subject to material fatigue.
To overcome these disadvantages and to automate the wheelset identification some proposals for the use of transponders have become known.
For example, DE 297 20 652 teaches an electromagnetic reflection device for the automatic identification of rail vehicles whose wheel sets have a holding device which is fixedly spaced from the track center for receiving a transponder provided with a ring antenna. As a corresponding holding device, a clamp with clamping screw or a clamping band with turnbuckle is disclosed. However, the person skilled in the art will not be aware of the way in which this holding device together with the transponder should be designed in order to achieve an economically acceptable minimum fatigue strength in view of the extreme environmental influences and highly corrosive environmental conditions.
Aus DE 198 17 941 ist eine transponderbasierte Datenübertragungseinrichtung von
einem Schienenfahrzeug an eine Abfrageeinrichtung bekannt, deren Antenne die Achse
als Manschette über einen Winkel von 360° umfasst. Ein solcher technologischer Ansatz
ist zwar für automatisierte Auslesevorgänge geeignet; in der konkreten betrieblichen
Anwendung, die einen Einsatz im Massenbetrieb erfordert, hat sich eine derartige
Transpondervorrichtung jedoch als zu kostenintensiv herausgestellt. Auch die diesbezügliche
aus DE 198 47 291 bekannte Modifikation unter Verwendung zweier identischer
Antwortgeräte, von denen jedes mit mindestens einer die Achse partiell umschliessenden,
um 180° zueinander versetzt angeordneten Antenne zusammenwirkt,
kann die Probleme hinsichtlich einer kostengünstigen Herstellung nicht wirksam beseitigen.
Ein grundsätzliches Problem derartiger Systeme, die auf eine automatisierte Auslesung
der Identifikationsmerkmale hin ausgelegt sind, besteht ferner darin, dass zwischen der
streckenseitigen bzw. ortsfesten Auslesevorrichtung und der Radsatzwelle exakte Abstände
eingehalten werden müssen. Andernfalls sind keine nennenswerten Leseabstände
zu erreichen. Die Lesefähigkeit wird durch die bei Überfahrt des Radsatzes über
eine Auslesevorrichtung ausgeführte rotatorische und / oder translatorische Bewegung
negativ beeinflusst. Befinden sich während des Lesevorganges mehrere Transponder
im Lesefeld der Auslesevorrichtung, so kann eine eindeutige Identifizierung einzelner
Radsätze nicht mehr sichergestellt werden (mangelnde Bulkfähigkeit).From DE 198 17 941 a transponder-based data transmission device of a rail vehicle to an interrogator is known, the antenna comprises the axis as a cuff over an angle of 360 °.

Diese Aufgabe wird in Verbindung mit dem Oberbegriff des Schutzanspruches 1 erfindungsgemäß
dadurch gelöst, dass der Transponder (1) und das Befestigungselement
(2) mittels eines Schrumpfschlauches (3) formschlüssig miteinander verbunden sind. This object is in connection with the preamble of the
Der Erfindungsgedanke wird wirksam unterstützt, wenn der Transponder auf ein versteifend wirkendes Zwischenelement aufgebracht ist. Dadurch wird verhindert, dass der Transponder während des Schrumpfvorganges durch Deformation geschädigt wird.The inventive concept is effectively supported when the transponder stiffening on a acting intermediate element is applied. This prevents the Transponder is damaged during the shrinking process by deformation.
Es ist für den Erfindungsgegenstand von besonderem Vorteil, wenn der Transponder auf einer auf der Fahrzeugachse aufliegenden Schicht aus einem elastisch und / oder plastisch verformbaren Material zum Ausgleichen von Unebenheiten der Oberfläche der Fahrzeugachse und / oder zum Anpassen des Transponders an unterschiedliche Achsendurchmesser aufgebracht ist.It is for the subject invention of particular advantage when the transponder on a resting on the vehicle axle layer of an elastic and / or plastically deformable material for leveling unevenness of the surface of the Vehicle axle and / or to adapt the transponder to different axle diameter is applied.
Eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung des Erfindungsgedankens sieht vor, dass der Transponder in einem frei beschreibbarem Speicherbereich Daten zur eindeutigen Identifikation des Radsatzes enthält. Hierbei handelt es sich neben einer eindeutig zuscheidbaren Bauteil-Nummer bevorzugt um eine Identifikationskennung für den Eigentümer bzw. Betreiber des Fahrzeuges sowie eine Identifikationskennung für die Bauart des vorliegenden Radsatzes. Dies ermöglicht es in bestimmten Anwendungen auf eine Online-Verbindung zu einer Datenbank, in der diese Informationen ebenfalls abgespeichert sein könnten, zumindest während des Erfassens der Radsatz-Kennungen zu verzichten. Somit sind auch autarke Anwendungen (ohne Energie- bzw. Dateninfrastruktur) im Gleisbereich ausserhalb von Werkstätten möglich.An advantageous embodiment of the inventive concept provides that the Transponder in a freely writable memory area Data for the unique Identification of the wheelset contains. This is in addition to a clearly co-determinable Part number preferred by an identification code for the owner or operator of the vehicle and an identification code for the type of the present wheelset. This allows for a specific application Online connection to a database in which this information is also stored could be at least during the detection of the wheel set identifiers. Thus, self-sufficient applications (without energy or data infrastructure) in the track area outside of workshops possible.
Der Erfindungsgedanke wird anhand eines in Figur 1 (Querschnitt durch Fahrzeugachse
im Bereich der auf der Achse befestigten Datenübertragungsvorrichtung) dargestellten
Ausführungsbeispiels beschrieben.
Die Vorrichtung besteht im wesentlichen aus einem an sich bekannten, handelsüblichen
passiven Transponder (1). Dieser wird mittels eines beidseitig wirksamen Klebebandes
auf ein versteifend wirkendes Zwischenelement (5) aufgebracht. Dieses ist bezüglich
seiner Grundfläche den Abmessungen des Transponders im wesentlichen angepasst
und besteht z.B. aus dem relativ biegesteifen Werkstoff Polyamid. Transponder mit
Zwischenelement sowie der als Befestigungselement (2) dienende handelsübliche Kabelbinder,
dessen Breite 8 mm keinesfalls unterschreiten sollte, werden in ihrer relativen
Sollposition zueinander durch Verkleben fixiert und in einen Schrumpfschlauch (3)
aus Elastomer oder Polyolefin Compound (PO) eingeführt. Der Schrumpfschlauch ist
mit einem Längenmass, das den Umfang der Fahrzeugachse (4) an der vorgesehenen
Einbaustelle um circa 10% unterschreitet, derart bemessen, dass die Verschlussvorrichtung
(7) sowie die Verzurrstrecke des Kabelbinders (2) frei bleiben bzw. nicht abgedeckt
werden. In der Minimalausführung muss zumindest der Kontaktbereich des
Transponders (1) (bzw. des versteifenden Zwischenelementes (5)) mit dem Befestigungselement
(2) abgedeckt werden. Sodann werden Befestigungselement, Zwischenelement
und Transponder mittels Heissluft zu einem untrennbaren Komposit verbunden.
Alternativ zum Einsatz eines Schrumpfschlauches bietet sich auch ein Vergiessen
mit Epoxidharz und / oder Polyurethanharz oder ähnlichen Kunststoffen an. Dies kann
beispielsweise durch Eintauchen in ein Kunststoff-Heissbad erfolgen.
Natürlich sind an Stelle eines Kabelbinders auch sonstige Spannringe, bevorzugt aus
rostfreiem Edelstahl einsetzbar. Hierbei ist jedoch darauf zu achten, dass die metallischen
Kanten der Spannringe nicht die schützende und stabilisierend KunststoffUmmantelung
im Bereich des Transponders durch Scheuem etc.... schädigen.
Dieses durch Schrumpfen bzw. Vergiessen erhaltene Komposit wird schliesslich in bekannter
Weise auf der Achse des zu kennzeichnenden Radsatzes befestigt. Die Positionierung
des Transponders ist sowohl in axialer als auch in radialer Richtung auf der
Fahrzeugachse frei wählbar und frei von masslichen Randbedingungen.
Zum Auslesen der Identifikationsmerkmale an erfindungsgemäss ausgestatteten
Radsätzen führt das Bedienpersonal bei Fahrzeugstillstand ein Handlesegerät bis auf
einen Abstand von circa 2 bis 4 cm an die Datenübertragungsvorrichtung heran. The idea of the invention will be described with reference to an exemplary embodiment illustrated in FIG. 1 (cross section through vehicle axle in the region of the data transmission device mounted on the axle).
The device consists essentially of a known, commercially available passive transponder (1). This is applied by means of a double-sided adhesive tape on a stiffening acting intermediate element (5). This is substantially adapted to the dimensions of the transponder with respect to its base and consists for example of the relatively rigid material polyamide. Transponder with intermediate element and serving as a fastener (2) commercial cable ties whose width should not fall below 8 mm, are fixed in their relative position to each other by gluing and introduced into a shrink tube (3) made of elastomer or polyolefin compound (PO). The heat-shrinkable tube is dimensioned with a length that falls below the circumference of the vehicle axle (4) at the intended installation location by approximately 10% in such a way that the closure device (7) and the tie-down path of the cable tie (2) remain free or not covered. In the minimal version, at least the contact area of the transponder (1) (or of the stiffening intermediate element (5)) must be covered with the fastening element (2). Then fastener, intermediate element and transponder are connected by means of hot air to an inseparable composite. As an alternative to the use of a shrink tube, it is also possible to cast epoxy resin and / or polyurethane resin or similar plastics. This can be done for example by immersion in a plastic hot bath.
Of course, instead of a cable tie and other clamping rings, preferably made of stainless steel used. However, it must be ensured that the metallic edges of the clamping rings do not damage the protective and stabilizing plastic jacket in the area of the transponder due to abrasion, etc ....
This composite obtained by shrinkage or casting is finally fixed in a known manner on the axis of the wheelset to be characterized. The positioning of the transponder is freely selectable both in the axial and in the radial direction on the vehicle axle and free from massive boundary conditions.
For reading out the identification features on wheel sets equipped according to the invention, the operating personnel, when the vehicle is stationary, bring a handheld reading device up to a distance of approximately 2 to 4 cm to the data transmission device.
