Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Testen einer sicheren Traktionssperre eines Schienenfahrzeugs.The present invention relates to a method for testing a secure traction barrier of a rail vehicle.
Es ist bekannt, dass in der Verkehrstechnik und damit auch bei Schienenfahrzeugen besonders hohe Sicherheitsvorkehrungen gefordert werden. So wird beim Halt eines Zuges gefordert, dass dieser sich nicht aus dem Stillstand unbeabsichtigt ruckartig zu bewegen beginnt und dadurch mƶglicherweise Passagiere in Gefahr bringt, welche sich gerade im Bereich des Einstiegs aufhalten. Eine solche Forderung wird mittels einer so genannten Traktionssperre realisiert, welche ebenfalls diesen hohen Anforderungen an die technische ZuverlƤssigkeit genĆ¼gen muss: Sie muss nahezu frei von so genannten systematischen Fehlern sein. DarĆ¼ber hinaus muss die Wahrscheinlichkeit eines Ausfalls der Traktionssperre unter einer definierten Grenze liegen. Heutzutage wird gefordert, dass die Ausfallwahrscheinlichkeit pro Stunde im Bereich von kleiner/gleich 10-8 bis kleiner 10-7 liegt.It is known that particularly high safety precautions are required in traffic engineering and thus also in rail vehicles. So when stopping a train is required that this does not start unintentionally jerky from a standstill and thereby possibly brings passengers at risk, which are currently in the area of entry. Such a requirement is realized by means of a so-called traction lock, which must also meet these high demands on the technical reliability: it must be virtually free from so-called systematic errors. In addition, the likelihood of traction lockout failure must be below a defined limit. Nowadays, the probability of failure per hour is required to be in the range of less than or equal to 10 -8 to less than 10 -7 .
Bekanntlich werden Schienenfahrzeuge meist von Elektromotoren angetrieben, welche von einem Stromrichter gespeist werden. Die Steuersignale fĆ¼r die Stromrichter-Antriebseinheit erzeugt ein LeitgerƤt des Schienenfahrzeugs, Ć¼blicherweise ein Mikrocomputer. Dabei kann nicht ausgeschlossen werden, dass dieser Mikrocomputer fehlerhaft arbeitet und dessen Software bei einem Halt in einem Bahnhof fehlerhaft Steuersignale erzeugt. Dann kann es zu einer unverhofften ruckartigen Bewegung des Schienenfahrzeugs kommen, bei der auch Passagiere des Schienenfahrzeugs Schaden nehmen kƶnnen. Aus SicherheitsgrĆ¼nden ist man bestrebt, eine solche unbeabsichtigt erzeugte Traktionskraft mit mƶglichst hoher Sicherheit zu vermeiden.As is known, rail vehicles are usually driven by electric motors, which are fed by a power converter. The control signals for the power converter drive unit generates a rail device of the rail vehicle, usually a microcomputer. It can not be ruled out that this microcomputer is working incorrectly and its software generates erroneous control signals when stopped in a station. Then it can be an unexpected jerky movement of the rail vehicle come, in which passengers of the rail vehicle can take damage. For safety reasons, it is endeavored to avoid such an unintentionally generated traction force with the highest possible safety.
Um bei einem stillstehenden Schienenfahrzeug die ungewollte Umsetzung der Antriebskraft in einen Vor- oder RĆ¼ckwƤrtstrieb zu unterbinden, gibt es verschiedene LƶsungsansƤtze.In order to prevent the unwanted implementation of the driving force in a forward or reverse drive in a stationary rail vehicle, there are various approaches.
Zum einen kƶnnte man beispielsweise fahrerseitig bei jedem Bahnhofshalt den Hauptschalter ƶffnen und die Energiezufuhr unterbrechen. Damit wƤre ein ungewollter Antrieb mit Sicherheit ausgeschlossen, gleichzeitig fƤllt aber auch die Energieversorgung der Nebenaggregate weg, was nicht erwĆ¼nscht ist.For one thing, for example, you could open the main switch at each station station driver side and interrupt the power supply. This would be an accidental drive certainly excluded, but at the same time also eliminates the power supply of the ancillaries, which is not desirable.
Ein anderer bekannter Lƶsungsansatz geht von einer StillstandĆ¼berwachung aus. Dabei wird elektronisch der Stillstand des Fahrzeugs Ć¼berwacht, beispielsweise indem die Drehbewegung der RƤder messtechnisch erfasst wird. Sobald eine BewegungsƤnderung erkannt und diese einen kritischen Schwellwert Ć¼berschritten hat, wird die Energiezufuhr unterbrochen und dadurch die unerwĆ¼nschte Bewegung wieder gestoppt. Dies hat aber den Nachteil, dass ein "Ruck" des Schienenfahrzeugs erst auftreten muss, um ihn erfassen und verhindern zu kƶnnen. Damit bleibt aber grundsƤtzlich ein Sicherheitsrisiko bestehen.Another known approach is based on a standstill monitoring. Here, the standstill of the vehicle is monitored electronically, for example by the rotational movement of the wheels is detected by measurement. As soon as a movement change has been detected and this has exceeded a critical threshold value, the energy supply is interrupted, thereby stopping the unwanted movement again. However, this has the disadvantage that a "jerk" of the rail vehicle must first occur in order to detect and prevent it. But this basically leaves a security risk.
Ein anderer Lƶsungsansatz besteht darin, die unerwĆ¼nschte Ruckbewegung elektronisch zu verhindern. Im Fachaufsatz "
Ein solcher Selbsttest der Traktionssperre lƤuft aber stets so ab, dass von der Steuereinheit an die Antriebseinheit gerichtete Ansteuersignalen erzeugt werden und geprĆ¼ft wird, ob deren Weiterleitung durch die Traktionssperre verhindert ist. Dabei ist grundsƤtzlich nicht auszuschlieĆen, dass im Falle einer nicht funktionierenden Traktionssperre an die Antriebseinheit Steuerimpulse gelangen, die eine unerwĆ¼nschte Bewegung des Schienenfahrzeugs bewirken.However, such a self-test of the traction lock always runs in such a way that control signals directed by the control unit to the drive unit are generated and it is checked whether their transmission is prevented by the traction lock. In principle, it can not be ruled out that, in the event of a malfunctioning traction lock on the drive unit, control pulses will arrive which cause undesired movement of the rail vehicle.
GrundsƤtzlich ist man aber bestrebt, einen solchen Test - der ja der Betriebssicherheit dient - so gefahrlos wie mƶglich zu gestalten.In principle, however, one endeavors to make such a test - which indeed serves operational safety - as safe as possible.
Weiters ist aus dem Stand der Technik die europƤische Patentanmeldung
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zu Grunde, ein Verfahren zum Testen einer sicheren Traktionssperre anzugeben, das mƶglichst gefahrlos ablƤuft.The present invention is based on the object to provide a method for testing a secure traction lock that runs as safe as possible.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Verfahren mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelƶst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den abhƤngigen AnsprĆ¼chen definiert.This object is achieved by a method having the features of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are defined in the dependent claims.
GemĆ¤Ć der Erfindung wird der Test durch ein Signal des Schienenfahrzeuges gesteuert, dessen Signalzustand sich kurz vor der Freigabe zur Fahrt Ƥndert.According to the invention, the test is controlled by a signal of the rail vehicle whose signal state changes shortly before release for travel.
In einer Ausgestaltung des erfindungsgemƤĆen Verfahrens wird das TrƤgersignal vom BetƤtigungszustand des Fahrhebels des Schienenstrangs abgeleitet. Eine manuelle BetƤtigung in Richtung "Fahrt" lƶst die SelbstĆ¼berprĆ¼fung aus.In one embodiment of the method according to the invention, the carrier signal is derived from the operating state of the driving lever of the rail track. A manual operation in the direction of "drive" triggers the self-check.
Es kƶnnen aber auch andere sicherheitsrelevante Signale des Schienenfahrzeugs fĆ¼r das Auslƶsen der FunktionsĆ¼berprĆ¼fung der Traktionssperre herangezogen werden.However, other safety-related signals of the rail vehicle can be used for triggering the function check of the traction lock.
Wenn die ĆberprĆ¼fung der Traktionssperre durch das SchlieĆsignal aller TĆ¼rkontakte des Schienenfahrzeugs ausgelƶst wird, geht von der FunktionsĆ¼berprĆ¼fung kaum ein GefƤhrdungspotenzial fĆ¼r Passagiere aus.If the check of the traction lock is triggered by the closing signal of all door contacts of the rail vehicle, the function check hardly poses a risk potential for passengers.
Es kann aber auch vorteilhaft sein, wenn das Triggersignal von einer Ć¼bergeordneten Zugsteuereinrichtung des Schienenfahrzeugs abgeleitet wird.However, it can also be advantageous if the trigger signal is derived from a superordinate train control device of the rail vehicle.
Eine andere mƶgliche Ausgestaltung des erfindungsgemƤĆen Verfahrens kann so aussehen, dass als sicherheitsrelevantes Signal zum Auslƶsen der FunktionsĆ¼berprĆ¼fung der Traktionssperre ein Signal einer externen Linienzug-Beeinflussungseinrichtung verwendet wird. Dadurch kann der Funktionstest vor dem Fahrauftrag durchgefĆ¼hrt und zudem von einer externen Zentrale Ć¼berwacht werden.Another possible embodiment of the method according to the invention may be such that a signal of an external polyline influencing device is used as the safety-relevant signal for triggering the function check of the traction lock. As a result, the functional test can be carried out prior to the drive task and can also be monitored by an external central unit.
Es ist auch mƶglich, das Auslƶsen der SelbstĆ¼berprĆ¼fung der Traktionssperre von einem PWM-Signal der antriebe des Schienenfahrzeugs abzuleiten.It is also possible to deduce the initiation of the self-check of the traction lock from a PWM signal from the drives of the rail vehicle.
Es kann auch gĆ¼nstig sein, eine Kombination aus zwei oder mehreren dieser sicherheitskritischen Signale fĆ¼r das Auslƶsen eines Selbsttests zu verwenden. Dies kann beispielsweise durch eine UND-VerknĆ¼pfung (Logische Konjunktion) dieser Signale erfolgen. Dadurch lƤsst sich das Risiko einer GefƤhrdung der FahrgƤste noch weiter verringern.It may also be beneficial to use a combination of two or more of these safety-critical signals for triggering a self-test. This can for example, by an AND operation (logical conjunction) of these signals. This can further reduce the risk of passengers being endangered.
Zur weiteren ErlƤuterung der Erfindung wird im nachfolgenden Teil der Beschreibung auf die Zeichnungen Bezug genommen, aus denen weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen, Einzelheiten und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung anhand eines nicht einschrƤnkenden AusfĆ¼hrungsbeispiels zu entnehmen sind.

Wie einleitend bereits gesagt, wird bei einem Selbsttest einer Traktionssperre geprĆ¼ft, ob die Weiterleitung von erzeugten Ansteuersignalen tatsƤchlich blockiert ist. FĆ¼r Passagiere darf aber von dieser SelbstĆ¼berprĆ¼fung kein zusƤtzliches GefƤhrdungspotenzial entstehen.As already stated in the introduction, a self-test of a traction lock checks whether the forwarding of generated drive signals is actually blocked. For passengers, however, no additional hazard potential may arise from this self-examination.
Bevor nun auf das erfindungsgemƤĆe Verfahren zum Testen einer sicheren Traktionssperre eingegangen wird, wird einleitend die Funktionsweise der Traktionssperre eines Schienenfahrzeugs nƤher erlƤutert.Before discussing the method according to the invention for testing a safe traction lock, the mode of operation of the traction lock of a rail vehicle is explained in detail in the introduction.
Die
Wie bereits eingangs dargestellt, kann der Wechselrichter 11 im Normalzustand durch die Software im Mikrorechner 6 gesperrt und auch freigegeben werden. ErfindungsgemĆ¤Ć kommt zu dieser SchutzmaĆnahme eine durch Hardware realisierte elektronische Traktionssperre 1 hinzu, deren Funktion im Folgenden nƤher erlƤutert wird:
Der elektronischen Traktionssperre 1 wird ein in einer Einrichtung 2 erzeugtes Traktionssperre-Anforderungssignal 3 zugefĆ¼hrt. Diese Einrichtung 2 steht in einer Wirkverbindung mit dem Fahrhebel, der sich im FĆ¼hrerstand des Schienenfahrzeugs befindet und im Betriebsfall vom FahrzeugfĆ¼hrer manuell betƤtigt wird. Des Weiteren kann der Einheit 2 ein Signal 4' zugefĆ¼hrt sein, welches beispielsweise durch Abfrage von TĆ¼rkontakten oder anderen Sensoren des Schienenfahrzeugs gewonnen wird. Beide Signale 4 und 4' reprƤsentieren einen "Fahrtbefehl" beziehungsweise eine "Fahrtfreigabeinformation"; beide lƶsen die Erzeugung eines Traktionssperre-Anforderungssignals 3 aus. Das Anforderungssignal 3 gelangt Ć¼ber einen ersten Signalpfad 5 zum Mikrorechner 6. Ein zweiter Signalpfad 12 leitet dieses Traktionssperre-Anforderungssignal 3 einer Ansteuersignal-Sperrschaltung 9 zu. Die Ansteuersignal-Sperrschaltung 9 liegt im Ansteuersignalpfad 10. Der Ansteuersignalpfad 10 dient zur Ćbertragung der vom Mikrorechner 6 erzeugten Ansteuersignalen 8 zum Stromrichter 11.As already mentioned, the
The electronic traction lock 1 is supplied with a traction
Die Ansteuersignal-Sperrschaltung 9 hat die Aufgabe, die Weiterleitung von Ansteuersignalen dann zu sperren, wenn diese von der Steuereinrichtung 6 fehlerhaft wƤhrend eines Stillstands des Schienenfahrzeugs erzeugt werden. Die Ansteuersignal-Sperrschaltung 9 fungiert als logische Konjunktion, das heiĆt sie besteht im Wesentlichen aus UND-Gattern, denen eingangsseitig das Traktionssperre-Anforderungssignal 3 und die Ansteuersignale 8 zugeleitet sind. Bei der Zuleitung des Traktionssperre-Anforderungssignals 3 zur Ansteuersignal-Sperrschaltung 9 ist dieses durch das Verzƶgerungsglied 16 verzƶgert, was unten stehend nƤher erlƤutert wird.The drive
Wie eingangs bereits dargestellt, kann der Signalpfad zu dieser Ansteuersignal-Sperrschaltung 9 gestƶrt sein, so dass eine unerwĆ¼nschte Drehmomentbildung nicht mit genĆ¼gender Sicherheit ausgeschlossen werden kann. Im Sinne einer hƶheren technischen ZuverlƤssigkeit erfolgt daher eine fortwƤhrende ĆberprĆ¼fung dieses Signalpfads 12. Dieser Selbsttest wird immer dann angestoĆen, wenn sich das Traktionssperre-Anforderungssignal 3 Ƥndert, z. B. wenn der Fahrhebel betƤtigt wird. Die Diagnoseeinrichtung besteht im Wesentlichen aus dem Mikrorechner 6, einer Testanforderungssignal-Zuleitung 14, einem Sperrsignal-RĆ¼cklesekanal 15, sowie einem Selbsttest-Schalter 17 und dem Verzƶgerungsbaustein 16, einem RĆ¼cklesekanal 25 der programmierbare logische Schaltung (FPGA) 20. Der FPGA-Baustein erhƤlt die Ansteuersignale 8 von der Steuereinheit 6 Ć¼ber Busabschnitt 21. Der Selbsttest-Schalter 17 befindet sich dabei am Eingang des Ćbertragungskanals 12, das heiĆt in ƶrtlicher NƤhe der Erzeugung des Traktionssperre-Anforderungssignals 3, m. a. W. nahe zur Einheit 2. Der Verzƶgerungsbaustein 16 ist am anderen Ende des Signalpfads 12 angeordnet, das heiĆt in ƶrtlicher NƤhe zur Ansteuersignal-Sperrschaltung 9. Der Verzƶgerungsbaustein 16 ermƶglicht die Speicherung beziehungsweise das Halten eines Signalwertes Ć¼ber ein vorgegebenes Zeitintervall.As already indicated, the signal path to this drive
Der Mikrocomputer 6 erzeugt zum Zwecke der ĆberprĆ¼fung bei jeder Ćnderung des Traktionssperre-Anforderungssignals 3 ein Testanforderungssignal 13. Dieses Testanforderungssignal 13 besteht darin, dass kurzzeitig zu Testzwecken eine "Sperranforderung" simuliert wird. Diese "Sperranforderung" gelangt Ć¼ber die Testanforderungssignal-Leitung 14 an den Selbsttest-Schalter 17. Der Selbsttest-Schalter 17 fungiert als testbarer Digital-Eingang, so dass bei einem funktionsfƤhigen Signalpfad 12 die simulierte "Sperranforderung" Ć¼ber die Sperrsignal-RĆ¼cklesekanal 15 zurĆ¼ck an den Mikrocomputer 6 geleitet wird.The
Gleichzeitig wird dieses Testanforderungssignal 13 auch einem programmierbaren Logikbaustein 20 und dem Verzƶgerungsglied 16 zugeleitet. Der programmierbare Logikbaustein 20, z.B. ein FPGA-Baustein befindet sich am Ausgang der Steuereinheit 6 im Ansteuersignalpfad 10. Er sorgt dafĆ¼r, dass die Selbsttests nur zu einem Zeitpunkt erfolgen dĆ¼rfen, in welchem die korrekte Ansteuerung der Halbleitermodule im Stromrichter 11 nicht gefƤhrdet ist. Die Ansteuersignal-Sperrschaltung 9 ist ebenfalls im Ansteuersignalpfad 10 angeordnet. Kommt es nun seitens des Mikrorechners 6 im Fehlerfall trotzdem zu einer Erzeugung von Ansteuersignalen 6, so gelangen diese zwar Ć¼ber den Abschnitt 21 des Signalpfads 10 zum FPGA 20, werden aber von dieser Schaltung entsprechend der Konfiguration des FPGA 20 so umgesetzt, dass die Halbleiterschalter im Wechselrichter 11 beim Abschalten der Phasen des Elektroantriebs 7 nicht beschƤdigt werden. Dadurch ist sichergestellt, dass bei der gewĆ¼nschten Verhinderung der Drehmomentbildung der Stromrichter 11 nicht beschƤdigt wird. Sollte aber auch dieser programmierbare Logikbaustein 20 selbst fehlerhaft sein, so wirkt zeitlich verzƶgert die Ansteuersignal-Sperrschaltung 9 und bewirkt ein "hartes" Abschalten des Stromrichters 11. Die zeitliche Verzƶgerung ist durch das Zeitintervall (einige Millisekunden) des Verzƶgerungs-Bausteins 16 vorgegeben.At the same time, this
Mittels des RĆ¼cklesekanals 23 wird der Signalzustand am Eingang der Antriebseinheit 22 von der Steuereinheit 6 zurĆ¼ck gelesen. Ist das RĆ¼cklesesignal inaktiv, dann funktioniert die Traktionssperre 1. Im Fehlerfall wird der fehlerhafte Zustand dem FahrzeugfĆ¼hrer zur Anzeige gebracht.By means of the

Wie aus dem oben gesagten hervorgeht, werden die Erhƶhung der ZuverlƤssigkeit und der Schutz des Stromrichters 11 ausschlieĆlich durch Hardware erreicht. Es ist nicht erforderlich, den Algorithmus im Mikrorechner 6 oder dessen Hardware zu Ƥndern. Bei einer Fahrzeugzulassung ist daher die sicherheitstechnische Analyse der hinzugekommenen Baugruppen vergleichsweise einfach. Bei der Realisierung der erfindungsgemƤĆen Vorrichtung kann mit vergleichsweise geringem Aufwand eine Ausfallwahrscheinlichkeit von kleiner als 10-8 erreicht werden.As is apparent from the above, the increase of the reliability and the protection of the
Um einen mƶglichst gefahrlosen Selbsttest der oben stehend erlƤuterten Traktionssperre zu ermƶglichen, wird erfindungsgemĆ¤Ć die FunktionsĆ¼berprĆ¼fung der Traktionssperre durch ein Signal des Schienenfahrzeuges gesteuert, dessen Signalzustand sich kurz vor der Freigabe der Fahrt Ƥndert.In order to enable the most risk-free self-test of the above-described traction lock, according to the invention the function check of the traction lock is controlled by a signal of the rail vehicle whose signal state changes shortly before the release of the drive.
In
Die Ćnderung des Signalzustands 4 kann beispielsweise durch manuelle BetƤtigung des Fahrhebels (siehe
GrundsƤtzlich ist aber als TrƤgersignal jedes sicherheitsrelevante Signal des Schienenfahrzeuges geeignet, bei dem sich kurz vor der Fahrtfreigabe der Signalzustand Ƥndert.Basically, however, any safety-relevant signal of the rail vehicle is suitable as a carrier signal in which changes the signal state shortly before the drive release.
Das Signal 4' reprƤsentiert beispielsweise den geschlossenen Zustand aller TĆ¼rkontakte des Schienefahrzeugs.The signal 4 'represents, for example, the closed state of all door contacts of the rail vehicle.
Das Signal 4' kann aber auch von einer Ć¼bergeordneten Zugsteuereinrichtung des Schienenfahrzeugs stammen.The signal 4 'can also originate from a higher-level train control device of the rail vehicle.
Das Auslƶsen der FunktionsĆ¼berprĆ¼fung kann auch von einer externen Linienzug-Beeinflussungs-Einrichtung (LZB) herkommen.The triggering of the functional check can also come from an external line-influencing device (LZB).
Es ist auch mƶglich, mehrere sicherheitsrelevante Signale Ć¼ber ein logische UND zu verknĆ¼pfen und daraus das Triggersignal fĆ¼r einen Selbsttest abzuleiten.It is also possible to connect several safety-relevant signals via a logical AND and to derive the trigger signal for a self-test.
Eine andere Mƶglichkeit zum Auslƶsen des Selbsttests kann durch ein PWM-Signal des Schienenfahrzeuges erfolgen. In diesem Fall ist der Wechsel des Signalzustandes durch einen Wechsel der PWM-Codierung realisiert.Another possibility for triggering the self-test can be done by a PWM signal of the rail vehicle. In this case, the change of the signal state is realized by a change of the PWM coding.
