Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for obstacle detection in rail vehicles with a track clearer which is attached to the bogie of a rail vehicle by means of a holding device.
  • a foreign object lying on the route of a rail network can pose a significant risk in the event of a collision.
  • Rail traffic technology has therefore long been familiar with rail clearers or track clearers, which can be used to clear an obstacle from the track.
  • a track clearer usually consists of a steel structure with a collision bar lying transversely to the direction of travel. The collision bar is attached to the main frame of the rail vehicle or to the bogie frame using a mounting bracket.
  • Various regulations on the construction and operation of a rail vehicle stipulate that such a track clearer must be installed in front of the first wheelset in the direction of travel and as close as possible to the top edge of the rail.
  • obstacle detection should be able to detect a specified mass limit, such as 5 kg, as reliably as possible and, if necessary, initiate emergency braking of the rail vehicle.
  • document KR 100 837 174 B1 discloses a device for obstacle detection in a rail vehicle, with a track clearance bar which is held by means of a mounting bracket in front of the first wheelset in the direction of travel on the bogie frame of the rail vehicle, wherein the mounting bracket is formed by two vertically arranged spring elements, each spring element is designed as a leaf spring and is fastened at an upper end to the bogie frame and at a lower end to the track clearance bar, wherein each leaf spring is subjected to bending in the event of a collision, wherein the mounting bracket is formed by the two leaf springs which are spaced apart from one another by a distance which corresponds to the width of the bogie frame.
  • spring elements are used both for mounting the track clearing beam and for measuring the force-time curve in the event of a collision.
  • the mounting bracket of the track clearing beam is formed by vertically arranged spring elements, preferably leaf springs. each leaf spring being attached at an upper end to the bogie frame and at a lower end to the track clearing beam.
  • Each leaf spring has a Measuring transducer in the form of a strain-voltage converter. This measuring transducer is arranged between the upper end and the lower end on a broad surface of a leaf spring and is connected to an on-board evaluation unit via a signal-conducting connection. This makes it possible to detect an obstacle in a differentiated manner and not only when it exceeds a fixed collision limit value. Disturbing influences that occur at increased driving speeds can be better taken into account for subsequent actions. This means that unintentional braking operations occur less frequently.
  • the measurement signal generated by the force measuring device is fed to a signal preprocessing unit on site, i.e. by means of a device arranged on the web clearer holding device.
  • the measurement signal can be an analogue or digital signal, for example. It is advantageous if the measurement signal is checked for plausibility and forwarded to an evaluation unit as an amplified signal.
  • the track clearer holding device is formed by at least two vertically arranged spring elements, each spring element being attached to the bogie at an upper end and to the track clearer at a lower end.
  • the vertical arrangement ensures that the dead weight of the track clearer does not rest on the measuring transducer. As a result, the measuring device is not subjected to shear forces.
  • the strain-voltage converter is a piezoelectric measuring transducer or a strain gauge.
  • Unintentional braking can be prevented in particular if the speed of the rail vehicle is taken into account. This means that unintentional braking occurs less frequently, especially at higher driving speeds.
  • the electronic evaluation unit is designed as a digital computer and is integrated into a safety loop or an electronic vehicle bus. This means that a braking command generated by the evaluation unit can be forwarded directly to the corresponding actuator or reported to the driver.
  • a simple and robust design is constructed in such a way that the mounting bracket is formed by two vertically arranged leaf springs, which are spaced apart from one another by a distance approximately equal to the width of the bogie frame.
  • Each leaf spring acts like a clamped beam that is subjected to bending in the event of a collision, and at the same time as a force sensor that sends a time-dependent force signal to the evaluation unit.
  • Figure 1 shows a schematic view of a bogie frame 5 of a rail vehicle 1.
  • the bogie frame 5 has a front wheel set 11.
  • a track clearance bar 6 arranged transversely to the direction of travel is sketched.
  • This track clearance bar 6 is attached to the bogie frame 5 by means of a mounting bracket 7.
  • the mounting bracket 7 not only forms a mechanical suspension for the track clearing beam 6, but also functions as a force sensor which, in the event of a collision with an obstacle, converts the collision force occurring into a proportional electrical signal and transmits it to an electronic evaluation unit.
  • the mounting bracket 7 is designed as a suspended construction. In the embodiment shown, it consists essentially of two vertically arranged spring plates or leaf springs 8. Each of these leaf springs 8 is made of a spring steel with a rectangular cross-section. This spring steel 8 is attached to the bogie frame at an upper end 9. A lower end 10 of each leaf spring 8 is connected to the track clearance beam 6, which is arranged transversely to the direction of travel. The connection can be made by screwing, riveting or welding. Each leaf spring 8 is in the In the event of a collision, the beam is subjected to bending like a beam clamped on one side.
  • the distance 17 between the leaf springs 8 corresponds approximately to the width of the bogie frame. For bogies mounted on the outside, the distance is slightly larger than the track width, and for bogies mounted on the inside, it is slightly smaller than the track width.
  • the leaf springs 8 are dimensioned in terms of their material properties and their cross-section in such a way that the vibrations and shocks occurring during driving, particularly at higher speeds, do not have a disruptive effect on obstacle detection.
  • FIG. 2 A spatial arrangement of this measuring device 2,3 is shown in the schematic representation of the Figure 2 .
  • a strain-voltage converter 2 with an associated measuring amplifier 3 can be seen on a broad surface 12 of a leaf spring 8.
  • the strain-voltage converter 2 and the measuring amplifier 3 are arranged between the upper end 9 and the lower end 10 on the same broad surface 12 of the leaf spring 8. Holes are shown at the upper and lower ends, with which the leaf spring is screwed to the bogie frame or to the track clearance beam.
  • the strain-voltage converter 2 converts the elastic deformation of the leaf spring 8 that occurs when it collides with an obstacle into a proportional electrical voltage signal. This voltage signal corresponds to an analog force-time curve.
  • the signal is initially fed via the connecting line 4 to a measuring amplifier 3 assigned to the measuring converter 2.
  • the measuring amplifier 3 amplifies the signal of the strain-voltage converter 2 on site to a corresponding analog level so that the signal transmission is less susceptible to interference.
  • the amplified electrical signal then passes from the measuring amplifier 3 via the connecting line 4 to an electronic evaluation unit 13 located on board the rail vehicle 1.
  • the connecting line 4 supplies the energy for the measuring transducer 2 and the measuring amplifier 3 on the one hand, and the signal line to the evaluation unit 13 on the other.
  • the external unit is a digital computer.
  • a comparison is made with a trigger threshold value that depends on the vehicle speed. If the processed measurement signal exceeds a predetermined threshold value, a safety loop 15 is opened directly and emergency braking of the rail vehicle 1 is initiated. If the processed measurement signal remains below a predetermined threshold value, a message is sent to the driver via an internal vehicle bus 16.
  • the threshold value is specified by the evaluation unit depending on the speed and, if necessary, other driving parameters, for example acceleration and impacts.
  • the advantage of the invention is that a collision is not only considered as a threshold value, as is usual up to now. is not only monitored, but an obstacle can be detected in a differentiated manner.
  • the trigger threshold can be set depending on the severity of the collision and the vehicle speed. This means that undesirable braking occurs less frequently.
  • the mounting bracket made of spring steel is mechanically robust and easy to manufacture. Commercially available components can be used as strain-voltage converters. A piezo or strain measuring strip can be attached to the leaf spring in a simple and cost-effective manner using an adhesive connection. Overall, the manufacturing costs of the suspension of the track clearing beam, which is designed as a force sensor, are comparatively low.
