Definitions

  • the invention relates to a fastening device for fastening a sensor element to a rail, wherein the fastening device has at least one clamping element for clamping the sensor element against the rail.
  • the invention also relates to an axle counting device with such a fastening device.
  • Sensor elements are used, for example, in Achsterrorismvorraumen to detect the number of passing axes of a train.
  • the sensor elements used for this purpose generally comprise a transmitting part and a receiving part, which are mounted on opposite sides of a rail.
  • the sensor elements can be screwed to the rail.
  • the disadvantage of this is that the rail must be provided with appropriate holes, which is very expensive.
  • the position of the sensor element is fixed and can only be changed with great effort.
  • the EP 1 260 420 A1 describes such a screwed to the rail sensor element, in which a breakage of the sensor housing can be detected.
  • a clamping device By means of a clamping device, the corresponding sensor element can be used flexibly, since the clamping device can be easily mounted at arbitrary locations of the rail.
  • a disadvantage of a clamping device is that it is susceptible to shocks, impacts and shocks, eg due to falling rocks. The axes of a passing train can then possibly no longer be detected by the sensor device. This is problematic because the sensor element can not detect whether it is mounted correctly or whether (due to damage of the clamping element) no correct positioning is given. This can lead to an incorrect assessment of the occupancy state of a track section, which however must be avoided for safety reasons.
  • the EP 1 808 531 A1 describes such a clamping device in which the correct installation is not monitored.
  • the clamping element is provided with at least one conductor element, which extends over at least a vulnerable point of the clamping element and which is in the correctly mounted state of the sensor element part of a closed circuit, which is needed for the function of the sensor element and interrupts the circuit in the damaged state of the clamping element ,
  • the conductor element can be integrated in the clamping element or attached to the clamping element. Course, thickness and material and type of attachment of the conductor element in or on the clamping element are chosen so that in case of damage of the clamping element, the conductor element is severed. Since the conductor element according to the invention extends over a fracture-prone point (weakest point) of the clamping element, it is ensured that damage to the clamping element first takes place at this point and the conductor element is severed accordingly. In this way, damage to the clamping element can be detected easily and reliably and the sensor element held in the clamping element can be deactivated in the event of damage to the clamping element, so that no incorrect information due to malfunction of the sensor element (blindness of the sensor element) are processed. Preferably, the sensor element is automatically deactivated by severing the line element (see below).
  • the conductor element is preferably insulated against the rail. This avoids that the circuit is closed by the rail despite cracked conductor element.
  • the clamping element comprises a foot portion which engages in the mounted state of a rail of the rail rail, and at least one clamping portion which in the mounted state exerts pressure on the sensor element, wherein at least a part of the conductor element between the foot portion and the clamping portion extends, as the clamping element in this area is particularly vulnerable to breakage.
  • the clamping element has at least one receiving point for connecting the clamping element to the sensor element and a contact surface to the rail, wherein at least a part of the conductor element extends between the receiving point and the contact surface.
  • the sensor element Via the pickup point, the sensor element is connected to the clamping element, e.g. via a screw or a locking connection, which is provided at the receiving point.
  • the receiving point is preferably arranged in the region of the clamping portion. Between the receiving point and the contact surface to the rail is a particularly vulnerable to breakage, therefore, the conductor element preferably extends in this area.
  • the clamping element has two clamping sections, each with a receiving point and a respective bearing surface to the rail.
  • one of the clamping sections for example, pressure on a transmitting part of the sensor element and the other clamping section exert pressure on a receiving part of the sensor element
  • the conductor element then preferably extends both between the first receiving point and the first contact surface and between the second receiving point and the second contact surface , Alternatively, two separate conductor elements may be provided.
  • a predetermined breaking point is provided between the receiving point and the contact surface.
  • the predetermined breaking point forms the weakest point of the clamping element. This is particularly advantageous if the clamping element has sensitive points at which the attachment of a conductor element is difficult.
  • the predetermined breaking point in this case forms a defined "fracture-prone spot".
  • the conductor element is designed as a wire or as a band-shaped conductor element, in particular as a foil conductor. It can also be provided that the conductor element is part of the wall of the clamping element, that is, that the wall of the clamping element (eg the surface of the clamping element) is partially electrically conductive.
  • the conductor element is fastened over its entire length to the clamping element. In this way it can be avoided that, in the event of breakage of the clamping element, the conductor element is pulled out of the clamping element or detached from the clamping element. This ensures that the conductor element ruptures in case of damage, especially breakage, of the clamping element and the circuit of the conductor element is reliably interrupted.
  • the conductor element may for example be cast in the clamping element.
  • the conductor element may be glued to the clamping element, e.g. as a foil conductor.
  • the invention also relates to an axle counting device having a metering point which is supplied with power via a power supply circuit, an evaluation unit electrically connected to the metering point and a sensor element electrically connected to the metering point via at least one sensor circuit, the axle counting device having a fixing device as described above, and wherein the at least one conductor element is part of an electrical connection within the axle counting device, which is required for the function of the sensor element.
  • a particularly preferred embodiment of the axle counting device provides that the conductor element is part of the power supply circuit of the axle counting device, so that a mechanical damage of the clamping element leads to an interruption of the power supply of the axle counting device.
  • the interruption of the power supply of the axle counting device is detected by means of the evaluation unit and the sensor circuit is deactivated. When interrupting the circuit thus the Achs vomvorraum is automatically switched off. As a result, optical maintenance efforts by the staff can be greatly reduced.
  • the transmitting part of the sensor element is supplied with power from the axle counting point, so that switching off the power supply of the counting point automatically effects a deactivation of the sensor element.
  • the at least one conductor element is part of the at least one sensor circuit, so that a mechanical damage of the clamping element leads to an interruption of the sensor circuit.
  • Fig. 1 and 2 show a side and a front view of a fastening device according to the invention with a sensor element mounted therein 7.
  • the sensor element 7 comprises a transmitting part 7a and a receiving part 7b , which are mounted on opposite sides of a rail 5 .
  • the fastening device comprises a clamping element 1 , which in the example shown has a foot section 2 and two clamping sections 3, 4 .
  • the clamping element 1 is designed here as a rail claw, wherein each clamping section 3, 4 each comprises two clamping jaws 3a, 3b , which are pressed from opposite sides to the rail 5.
  • the foot section 2 engages in the mounted state a rail 6 of the rail 5 and connects the two jaws 3a, 3b of the respective clamping sections 3, 4th
  • the clamping element according to the invention is equipped with a conductor element 8, 8' .
  • the conductor element 8 is formed as a wire and integrated in the clamping element (eg cast in).
  • Fig. 3 shows an alternative embodiment of a fastening device according to the invention with a clamping element 1 ' , in which a band-shaped conductor element 8' is provided as part of the surface of the clamping element 1 '.
  • a conductor element 8, 8 ' is provided in each clamping section 3, 4, wherein the conductor elements 8, 8' of the various clamping sections 3, 4 may be parts of the same circuit or even parts of separate circuits.
  • the conductor element 8, 8' In order to ensure that a fracture of the clamping element 1 leads to severing of the conductor element 8, 8 ', the conductor element 8, 8' according to the invention is positioned in / on the clamping element in such a way that it passes over a fracture-sensitive point 9 .
  • a location which is particularly susceptible to breakage is located between a receiving point 10 of the clamping element 1, which serves for the mechanical connection of the clamping element 1 to the sensor element 7, and a contact surface 11 of the clamping element 1 on the rail 5.
  • the conductor element 8, 8 ' arranged at least in this area.
  • the conductor element 8, 8 ' extends over the entire height and / or length of the clamping element, as in FIGS Fig. 1-3 shown.
  • An axle counting device is equipped with a fastening device described above and with a device which serves to detect an interruption of the circuit of the conductor element 8, 8 '.
  • an axle counting point 13 is powered by a power source 15 within a power supply circuit 15-13-15.
  • the transmitting part 7a and the receiving part 7b of the sensor element 7 are electrically connected via lines 12a, 12b to the metering point 13, so that two sensor circuits 13-7a-13 and 13-7b-13 are provided.
  • the axle counting point 13 is electrically connected to an evaluation unit 14 , to which the axle counting point 13 transmits the determined counter information.
  • the breakage detection serving conductor elements 8, 8 ' are part of the power supply circuit 15-13-15 of Achs drunkreferss 13.
  • the caused by a fraction of the conductor elements 8, 8' power interruption is detected by the metering point 13 and forwarded as disturbance information to the evaluation unit 14 ,
  • each conductor element 8, 8 ' is part of one of the sensor circuits 13-7a-13, 13-7b-13.
  • the current interruption in the sensor circuit 13-7a-13, 13-7b-13 caused by a break in one of the conductor elements 8, 8 ' is detected by the point of delivery and forwarded to the evaluation unit 14 as fault information.
