Definitions

  • the object is achieved by a method for determining the distance for vehicles traveling along a route, a plurality of storage devices being arranged at regular intervals along the route, in which a first predetermined starting value is stored in a first storage device when a first vehicle passes the first storage device in which a distance value is stored in further memory devices, which is different from the starting value and which is representative of a distance from the respective memory device to the first memory device, and in which at least one of the memory devices is read out to determine the distance to the first vehicle.
  • the object is achieved according to the invention by a system for determining the distance for vehicles traveling along a route, with a plurality of roadside storage devices which are arranged at a fixed, predetermined distance from one another along the route and of which adjacent storage devices are connected to one another and which are used to store a predetermined first starting value and/or a distance value, the start value being stored in a first storage device when a first vehicle passes the first storage device, and a distance value different from the start value being stored in the further storage devices, which is used for a distance from the respective storage device to is representative of the first memory device, and having at least one reading device for reading out the memory devices, for example for a second vehicle following the first vehicle.
  • the solution according to the invention has the advantage that it can be implemented in a simple and robust manner.
  • the costly, high-performance, system-wide radio data transmission known from systems of the prior art is not necessary.
  • For project planning only a suitable length of route sections and the resulting regular intervals between the storage devices are specified and made known.
  • the predetermined starting value is stored in the first memory device, e.g. B. by the vehicle itself or trackside.
  • the respective distance values are stored in the further memory devices, which follow the first memory device in both directions of the route.
  • the distance values of the different additional storage devices are of course different from one another because the distance to the first storage device and thus to the first vehicle changes in each case. Since, for example, a second vehicle following the first vehicle reads the distance value then stored from one of the other memory devices when driving over it, the current distance from the first vehicle can be easily determined.
  • the memory devices can also be read out by a field element, such as a switch, in order, for example, to prevent the switch from rotating when a vehicle is approaching.
  • the distance values are each representative of a distance from the respective storage device to the first storage device.
  • the distance values on the various memory devices can be updated very quickly, so that the current distance from the first vehicle for the following second vehicle or the field element can be easily calculated from the distance values or read directly.
  • Route extensions or route changes of the route can be carried out with the present invention simply by adding or removing sections with their storage devices. Route control centers or interlockings and the high-performance system-wide data radio already mentioned are not necessary for this.
  • no failure concepts are required with the appropriate security requirements.
  • the starting value can thus be stored in the first memory device by the vehicle passing by or by the first memory device itself. If the vehicle stores the starting value itself, it has a corresponding writing device with which the starting value is stored in the memory device. This has the advantage that it does not have to be recognized on the track side when the vehicle is passing the storage device. On the vehicle side, existing units such. B. a beacon antenna unit can be used. However, if there is a corresponding detection device on the track for the vehicle driving past, the writing device on the vehicle can in turn be dispensed with and the first memory device writes the starting value itself.
  • the respective distance values of the respective storage device can be read and/or written from one of the neighboring storage devices. In this way, the distance values are passed on quickly and easily and only adjacent storage devices need to be connected to one another.
  • the distance values in the respective memory devices can only be stored up to a predetermined maximum distance from the first memory device. This has the advantage that distance values for a vehicle do not have to be written to all the memory devices of a route.
  • the maximum distance is a limit value from which no danger emanates from the vehicle in front.
  • the maximum distance is therefore greater than the maximum braking distance.
  • the distance value of one storage device can be determined as a function of the distance value of one of the neighboring storage devices. In this way, the distance values can spread out very easily in a waterfall-like manner, starting from the starting value. Utilization is made of the fact that the currently valid distance value can easily be calculated from the previous distance value and the known distance to the previous storage device.
  • At least one identification means which is representative of the first vehicle and is assigned to the starting value and/or the distance values can be stored.
  • This means of identification can be, for example, a train number or a code for this train number. In this way, distance values for different vehicles can also be stored at the same time and still be clearly recognized by the following vehicles.
  • communication between the storage devices can be wireless by radio.
  • a second predetermined start value can be stored in one of the memory devices if there is a hazardous point in the area of this memory device.
  • this second predetermined starting value can also be provided with an identification means in order to indicate a type of hazardous point, such as a rotating switch. So the approaching train knows what kind of danger there is.
  • field element such as a switch, for reading memory devices, in particular the memory device in the area of the array element. If the distance value in the storage device for an approaching train falls below a fixed limit value, a switch, for example, may no longer rotate. This ensures that no turnout is started when a vehicle is approaching.
  • the system can have at least one writing device for the first vehicle, which is designed to write or store the predetermined starting value in the first memory device. This has the advantage already mentioned above that no detection device for the passing vehicle is required on the track side.
  • the storage devices can be designed for reading and/or writing the respective distance values from at least one adjacent storage device. In this way, the distance values can be reliably disseminated without all storage devices having to communicate with one another.
  • the memory devices can be designed to determine the distance value of a memory device as a function of the distance value of an adjacent memory device.
  • the invention also relates to a railway system with at least one first vehicle and one second vehicle, which travel one behind the other along a route, and with at least one system according to one of the aforementioned embodiments.
  • the figure shows a schematic representation of an exemplary embodiment of a railway system according to the invention.
  • a railway system 1 comprises a plurality of vehicles 3 traveling one behind the other in a travel direction 2, a route 4 and a system 5 for determining the distance.
  • the system 5 in turn comprises a plurality of memory devices 6, writing devices 7 and reading devices 8, the writing devices 7 and the reading devices 8 being arranged on the vehicles 3 in each case.
  • the system 5 also includes on each vehicle a computing device 9 which is at least connected to the reading device 8 and which can also be integrated in the onboard unit of the vehicle which is usually present today.
  • the first vehicle 3.1 drives in the direction of travel 2 along the route 4.
  • the storage devices 6 are arranged along the entire route 4 at a known fixed distance A from one another, e.g. 100 m. If the first vehicle 3.1 with its writing device 7 now has a first storage device 6.1 drives, the writing device 7 stores a predetermined start value S in the memory device 6.1.
  • the starting value S is the numerical value 16.
  • the distance value is representative of the distance or distance from the respective Storage device 6 to the first storage device 6.1.
  • the distance between the storage devices 6.2 and 6.2' is 15 in the example shown in the figure.
  • the starting value S only has to be reduced by one for the distance value W 6.2 since the storage device 6.2 is directly adjacent to the first storage device.
  • the starting value is correspondingly reduced more, depending on how far away the corresponding storage device 6 is from the first storage device 6.1. Since the starting value S is known in all storage devices 6, the difference to the starting value S can be calculated from the distance value of each storage device 6, which in turn, multiplied by the distance A, results in the distance from the respective storage device 6 to the first vehicle 3.1.
  • the reference symbols 6.1, 6.2, 6.2' are only used to differentiate between the memory devices 6 in terms of location. Otherwise, the storage devices 6 are all identical in construction.
  • All storage devices 6 are connected to the two adjacent storage devices 6 in such a way that the distance values or starting values S of the adjacent storage devices 6 can be read.
  • the distance value or start value S of the adjacent memory device 6 is sufficient to calculate the own distance value of the memory device 6 and to store it.
  • the distance values from one storage device 6 to the next storage device 6 thus continue in a simple manner. Since the train position can be calculated from each distance value as described above, this train position is propagated in both directions starting from the first memory device 6.1.
  • a sign + or - is added to the distance value in the exemplary embodiment in the figure.
  • the + sign here means propagation in direction of travel 2
  • the sign - means propagation in the opposite direction of travel 2.
  • the second vehicle 3.2 following the first vehicle 3.1 reads the distance value from the memory device 6, which is located below its reading device 8.
  • an identification means that identifies vehicle 3 is also assigned to the distance value.
  • the first vehicle 3.1 is assigned the number 1 as a means of identification
  • the second vehicle 3.2 is assigned the number 2
  • the third vehicle 3.3 is assigned the number 3. Therefore, the value that the reading unit 8 of the second vehicle 3.2 reads is the value 1.1-.
  • This value is evaluated by the computing device 9 of the second vehicle 3.2.
  • This means that the first vehicle 3.1 with the value 1 as the means of identification has a difference of 15 from the starting value S.
  • This means that the distance to the first vehicle 3.1 is 15 times the distance A.
  • the train control of the vehicle 3.2 knows the distance to the vehicle 3.1 driving in front and the course of the journey can be adjusted accordingly. Furthermore, the reading device of the second vehicle 3.2 also reads the distance values 2.14+ and 3.5+ from the storage device 6 located underneath. In the exemplary embodiment in the figure, these numbers mean that the writing device 7 of the same vehicle 3.2 is 2 times the distance A away in the opposite direction of travel and the third vehicle 3.3 follows the second vehicle 3.2 at a distance of 11 times the distance A.
  • field elements such as points, are also provided on the track side in the railway system 1 .
  • a switch can be a potential danger point, for example during its circulation.
  • a second predetermined start value can be stored in one of the storage devices 6 .
  • this second predetermined starting value can also be provided with an identification means in order to specify a type of hazardous point, such as the encircling points.
  • the field element such as the switch, can be designed to read the memory devices 6 . If the distance value in the storage device for an approaching train falls below a fixed limit value, a switch, for example, may no longer rotate. In this way it can be ensured that no switch circulation is started when a vehicle 3 is approaching.
