Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Schaltungsanordnung zur Überwachung des Belegungszustandes einer Weiche oder eines Gleisbereiches mittels eines Gleiskreises, wobei während der Befahrung des Gleiskreises durch ein Schienenfahrzeug eine resultierende Dämpfungs- und Resonanzfrequenzänderung detektierbar ist, mit einem Synchrongleichrichter zur Korrelation in den Gleiskreis eingekoppelter mit aus dem Gleiskreis ausgekoppelten Signalen, der über einen Tiefpassfilter mit einem Controller zur Auswertung des Korrelationssignals verbunden ist wobei der Controller einen Frequenzgenerator beaufschlagt, dessen Ausgangssignal über eine Endstufe in den Gleiskreis einkoppelbar ist.The invention relates to a circuit arrangement for monitoring the occupancy state of a switch or a track area by means of a track circle, wherein during the driving of the track circuit by a rail vehicle, a resulting damping and resonance frequency change is detectable coupled with a synchronous rectifier for correlation in the track circuit coupled out of the track circuit Signals, which is connected via a low-pass filter with a controller for evaluating the correlation signal wherein the controller acts on a frequency generator whose output signal is coupled via an output stage in the track circuit.
Bei Weichensteuerungen muss gewährleistet sein, dass ein nachfolgendes Fahrzeug die Weiche nicht umstellen kann, wenn sich noch ein vorausfahrendes Fahrzeug im Bereich der Weiche befindet. Unabhängig von der Zuglänge darf der Gleisabschnitt erst wieder freigemeldet werden, wenn die Metallmasse des letzten Wagens den Wirkbereich verlassen hat. Dieser Wirkbereich ist ein 6 bis 12 m langer Gleisabschnitt, der mittels einer kapazitiven Verbindung zwischen den Schienen und den Induktivitäten der Schienen als Schwingkreis ausgebildet ist.For point controls, it must be ensured that a following vehicle can not change over the points if there is still a vehicle ahead in the area of the points. Regardless of the train length, the track section may not be cleared until the metal mass of the last carriage has left the effective area. This effective range is a 6 to 12 m long track section, which is formed by means of a capacitive connection between the rails and the inductances of the rails as a resonant circuit.
Der Controller detektiert Dämpfungs- und Resonanzfrequenzänderungen während der Befahrung durch ein Schienenfahrzeug, die durch Achskurzschluss und Bedämpfung durch die Eisenmassen des Wagenkastens hervorgerufen werden. Da ein Achskurzschluss bei Befahrung durch ein Straßenfahrzeug, beispielsweise an einen Bahnübergang, nicht erfolgen kann, ergibt sich eine Unterscheidbarkeit von Rad- und Schienenfahrzeugen.The controller detects damping and resonant frequency changes during a rail vehicle encounter, caused by axle shorting and damping by the iron masses of the car body. As a Achskurzschluss when driven by a road vehicle, for example at a railroad crossing, can not be done, results in a distinctness of wheeled and rail vehicles.
Aus der
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Schaltungsanordnung der gattungsgemäßen Art anzugeben, die Phasenunabhängigkeit und erhöhte Sicherheit der Gleisfreimeldung ermöglicht.The invention has for its object to provide a circuit arrangement of the generic type, the phase independence and increased safety of the track release allows.
Erfindungsgemäß wird die Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, dass der Frequenzgenerator ein erstes Steuersignal und ein gegenüber diesem um 90° versetztes zweites Steuersignal erzeugt, wobei das erste Steuersignal auf einen Steuereingang des Synchrongleichrichters und das zweite Steuersignal auf einen Steuereingang eines zweiten Synchrongleichrichters, der über einen zweiten Tiefpassfilter mit dem Controller verbunden ist, geführt ist, und wobei Signaleingänge der beiden Synchrongleichrichter mit dem aus dem Gleiskreis über einen Tiefpass ausgekoppelten Signal verbunden sind und das erste und das zweite Steuersignal über ein Exklusiv/Oder-Gatter auf den Controller geführt sind, wobei der Controller Mittel zur Überprüfung der korrekten Bildung der Steuersignale aufweist. Auf diese Weise ergibt sich eine phasenunabhängige Betragswertermittlung, so dass auf eine Phasenanpassung als Schaltungsteil verzichtet werden kann. Stattdessen wird der vom Controller einstellbare Frequenzgenerator um zwei Ausgänge zur Ansteuerung zweier Synchrongleichrichter erweitert, wobei die beiden vom Frequenzgenerator erzeugten Steuersignale frequenzmäßig um 90° zueinander versetzt sind. Das aus dem Gleiskreis ausgekoppelte Signal wird mit einem Tiefpass gefiltert, bevor es an die Signaleingänge der beiden Synchrongleichrichter gelangt. Die beiden Synchrongleichrichter sind jeweils über Tiefpassfilter mit dem Controller verbunden. Die beiden dem Controller zugeführten Korrelationssignale sind prinzipiell identisch, aber um 90° zueinander versetzt. Im Controller erfolgt mit dem Satz des Pythagoras eine Betragswertberechnung der Korrelationsspannung. Möglich ist aber auch eine zusätzliche Berechnung des Phasenwinkels. Durch die Beschaltung des Controllers mit dem Exklusiv/Oder-Gatter wird das dabei entstehende Signal mit der doppelten Gleiskreisfrequenz auswertet. Wird diese doppelte Gleiskreisfrequenz nicht festgestellt, liegt ein Fehler vor. Wenn der Controller dabei nicht ein Tastverhältnis von 50% feststellen kann, liegt ein Phasenfehler vor.According to the invention, the object is achieved in that the frequency generator generates a first control signal and a 90 ° offset from this second control signal, wherein the first control signal to a control input of the synchronous rectifier and the second control signal to a control input of a second synchronous rectifier, via a second low-pass filter is connected to the controller, is guided, and wherein signal inputs of the two synchronous rectifier are connected to the decoupled from the track circuit via a low-pass signal and the first and the second control signal via an exclusive-OR gate to the controller, said controller having means for checking the correct formation of the control signals. In this way results in a phase-independent absolute value determination, so that can be dispensed with a phase adjustment as a circuit part. Instead, the adjustable by the controller frequency generator is extended by two outputs for driving two synchronous rectifier, the two frequency signals generated by the frequency generator control signals are offset by 90 ° to each other. The decoupled from the track circuit signal is filtered with a low-pass filter, before it reaches the signal inputs of the two synchronous rectifier. The two synchronous rectifiers are each connected to the controller via low-pass filters. The two correlation signals supplied to the controller are in principle identical, but offset by 90 ° to one another. The controller uses the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the magnitude of the correlation voltage. However, an additional calculation of the phase angle is also possible. By connecting the controller with the exclusive OR gate, the resulting signal is evaluated at twice the track frequency. If this double track frequency is not detected, there is an error. If the controller can not detect a duty cycle of 50%, there is a phase error.
Gemäß Anspruch 2 können die beiden Steuersignale zusätzlich direkt auf den Controller geführt sein, wobei der Controller die korrekte Bildung der Steuersignale überprüft.According to claim 2, the two control signals may additionally be performed directly on the controller, wherein the controller checks the correct formation of the control signals.
Da Controller einfacherer Bauart das Tastverhältnis der Steuersignale nicht selbst überprüfen können, ist gemäß Anspruch 3 vorgesehen, dass das Ausgangssignal des Exklusiv/Oder-Gatters zusätzlich über eine Tiefpassfilterung mit dem Controller verbunden ist. Durch diese Tiefpassfilterung kann der Controller die anstehende Spannung auswerten, wobei diese genau das Mittel zwischen der Spannung eines logischen high und eines logischen low erreichen muss, damit ein Tastverhältnis von 50% nachgewiesen ist.Since controllers of simpler design can not check the duty cycle of the control signals themselves, is in accordance with
Gemäß Anspruch 4 kann der Controller mit einem Diagnosemodul beschaltet sein, das Mittel zur Feststellung von alterungs- und/oder temperaturbedingten Änderungen der Phasenlage des ersten und/oder zweiten Steuersignals umfasst.According to
Anstelle mindestens eines der beiden Synchrongleichrichter kann gemäß Anspruch 5 ein Analogmultiplizierer vorgesehen sein, der von einem vom Frequenzgenerator erzeugten analogen Signal angesteuert wird. Ein Analogmultiplizierer ist zwar teuerer als ein Synchrongleichrichter, hat aber zur Folge, dass der vorgeschaltete Tiefpass einfacher ausgebildet sein kann. Das analoge Signal vom Frequenzgleichrichter an den Analogmultiplizierer wird dabei derart parametriert, dass es zur abwechselnden Multiplikation mit +X und -X kommt. Im einfachsten Fall ist X auf 1 parametriert.Instead of at least one of the two synchronous rectifier can be provided according to claim 5, an analog multiplier which is driven by an analog signal generated by the frequency generator. An analog multiplier is more expensive than a synchronous rectifier, but has the consequence that the upstream low-pass filter can be made simpler. The analog signal from the frequency rectifier to the analog multiplier is parameterized in such a way that it alternately multiplies + X and -X. In the simplest case, X is parameterized to 1.
Weiterhin kann gemäß Anspruch 6 anstelle des Frequenzgenerators ein PLL (Phase Locked Loop)-Element zur Frequenzstabilisierung vorgesehen sein.Furthermore, according to claim 6 instead of the frequency generator, a PLL (Phase Locked Loop) element for frequency stabilization can be provided.
Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand einer figürlichen Darstellung näher erläutert.The invention will be explained in more detail with reference to a figurative representation.
Die einzige Figur zeigt ein Blockschaltbild eines Weichensperrkreis-Korrelationsdetektors.The sole figure shows a block diagram of a turnout circuit correlation detector.
Dargestellt ist ein Gleiskreis 1, der einen Schwingkreis aus Induktivitäten bildenden Schienenbereichen 2a und 2b und einem Kondensator 3 bildet. In diesen Gleiskreis 1 wird ein NF-Signal mit einer Frequenz von 20 bis 30Hz eingekoppelt. Dazu dient ein Controller 4, der über einen Frequenzgenerator 5 und eine Endstufe 6 zur Verstärkung des Frequenzsignals mit dem Gleiskreis 1 verbunden ist. Der vom Controller 4 einstellbare Frequenzgenerator 5 erzeugt zwei digitale Ausgangssignale, die betragsmäßig identisch, aber um 90° versetzt sind. Die beiden Ausgangssignale fOsz und fOsz + 90° sind zwecks Überprüfung auf den Controller 4 zurückgeführt und bilden außerdem das Steuersignal für zwei Synchrongleichrichter 7 und 7.1, die jeweils über Tiefpassfilter 9 und 9.1 mit dem Controller 4 verbunden sind. Das in den Gleiskreis 1 einzukoppelnde Signal ist über einen Spitzenwertgleichrichter 10 ebenfalls auf den Controller 4 geführt. Das aus dem Gleiskreis 1 ausgekoppelte Signal wird mit einem Tiefpass 11 gefiltert und bildet den Signaleingang sowohl des Synchrongleichrichters 7 als auch des Synchrongleichrichters 7.1. In den Synchrongleichrichtern 7 und 7.1 werden die beiden den Eingang und den Ausgang des Gleiskreises 1 repräsentierenden Signale quasi überlagert, so dass über die nachgeschalteten Tiefpassfilter 9 und 9.1 vom Controller 4 auszuwertende Korrelationsspannungen Ukorrelation und Ukorrelation + 90° erzeugt werden. Dazu führt der Controller 4 mit dem Satz des Pythagoras eine Betragswertberechnung der Korrelationsspannung aus.Shown is a
Um die vom Frequenzgenerator 5 gebildeten Steuersignale fOsz und fOsz + 90° für die Synchrongleichrichter 7 und 7.1 zu überprüfen, können diese direkt auf den Controller 4 geführt werden. Vorzugsweise werden jedoch die beiden Steuersignale fOsz und fOsz + 90° mittels eines Exklusiv/Oder-Gatters 12 verknüpft, wobei das dabei entstehende Signal 2fOszIst auf den Controller 4 geschaltet ist. Die Steuersignale fOsz und fOsz + 90° wurden korrekt erzeugt, wenn der Controller 4 die doppelte Gleiskreisfrequenz 2fOszISt feststellen kann. Dabei muss das Tastverhältnis 50% betragen, damit ein Phasenfehler ausgeschlossen werden kann. Da Controller einfacherer Bauart dieses Tastverhältnis nicht selbst überprüfen können, ist von dem Exklusiv/Oder-Gatter 12 in diesem Fall eine Einrichtung zur Tiefpassfilterung 13 abgezweigt, wodurch ein Spannungs-Ausgangsssignal UPhase erzeugt wird, dass der Controller 4 auswerten kann. Beträgt UPhase genau das Mittel zwischen der Spannung eines logischen high und eines logischen low, ist ein Tastverhältnis von 50% nachgewiesen.In order to check the control signals f Osz and f Osz + 90 ° formed by the frequency generator 5 for the synchronous rectifiers 7 and 7.1, they can be fed directly to the
Letztlich erzeugt der Controller 4 aus den Korrelationsspannungen Ukorrelation und Ukorrelation + 90° durch phasenunabhängige Betragswertermittlung ein Ausgangssignal, das eine Frei- oder Besetztmeldung 14 des betrachteten Gleisabschnittes ansteuert. Außerdem kann der Controller 4 mit einem Diagnosemodul 15, welches bestimmte Parameter abfragt und/oder einer Diagnoseeinrichtung 16, welche Controllerzustände auswertet, verbunden sein.Finally, the
