Description

本発明は、車両に蓄電装置を搭載し、地上に設置された充電設備から電力の供給を受けながら軌道上等設定された経路を走行する架線レス交通システムに関し、待機基地から出発する前に、待機充電を行なうことで、常に設定された充電状態に精度良く保持しながら出発することができるようにし、また蓄電装置に対して過充電や過放電を防止し、蓄電装置の寿命を長くすることができる交通システム及びその充電方法に関する。   The present invention relates to an overhead line-less traffic system in which a power storage device is mounted on a vehicle and travels a route set on a track while receiving power supply from a charging facility installed on the ground, before leaving from a standby base, By performing standby charging, it is possible to start while accurately maintaining the set charging state at all times, and to prevent overcharging and overdischarging of the power storage device, thereby extending the life of the power storage device. The present invention relates to a transportation system capable of charging and a charging method thereof.

近年車両が設定された軌道上を走行する交通システムにおいて、架線から電力の供給を受けずに走行する電気車両を用いた架線レス交通システムが提案されている。架線レス交通システムの電気車両は、蓄電装置を搭載している。
かかる架線レス交通システムは、例えば特許文献1(特開2000−83302号公報)に開示されている。
In recent years, in a traffic system that travels on a track on which a vehicle is set, an overhead line-less traffic system using an electric vehicle that travels without receiving power from the overhead line has been proposed. An electric vehicle of an overhead line-less transportation system is equipped with a power storage device.
Such an overhead wire-less traffic system is disclosed in, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2000-83302.

特許文献1に開示された交通システムは、車両がその停止施設に停止したときには、その受電手段がその外部給電手段と電気的に結合し、その外部給電手段からその外部電力の供給を受け、受電したその外部電力をその蓄積電力として車両内蓄電手段に蓄積させる。車両の走行時には、車両内蓄電手段からその蓄積電力を取り出し、その電気的駆動源へ送り、その電気的駆動源の回転速度を制御して車両の走行速度を制御する。かつ、その車両の制動走行時には、その電気的駆動源を発電機として用いて回転させ、発生する回生電力をその蓄積電力として車両内蓄電手段に蓄積させる。   In the traffic system disclosed in Patent Document 1, when the vehicle stops at the stop facility, the power receiving means is electrically coupled to the external power feeding means, and the external power is supplied from the external power feeding means. The external power thus stored is stored in the in-vehicle power storage means as the stored power. When the vehicle travels, the stored electric power is taken out from the in-vehicle power storage means, sent to the electrical drive source, and the rotational speed of the electrical drive source is controlled to control the travel speed of the vehicle. When the vehicle is braked, the electric drive source is rotated as a generator, and the generated regenerative power is stored in the in-vehicle power storage means as the stored power.

また特許文献2(特開2003−274514号公報)には、病院など多数の部屋を有する建物内の各室に荷物を搬送する場合の無人の搬送システムが開示されている。図7は、この搬送システムの概略図である。図7において、この搬送システムは、走行軌道01と、該走行軌道01に沿って移動可能な台車010とを備え、台車010にバッテリが設けられ、走行軌道01に台車010が荷物の積み降ろしのために停車する複数のステーションST1が備えられ、各ステーションST1に、停止状態の台車010のバッテリに対して充電を行なう充電装置021が設けられ、該充電装置021が、台車010の停止後所定時間に亘って充電を行なう第1のモードと、該第1のモードにおける充電電流よりも小さい充電電流により充電を行なう第2の充電モードとを備えている。   Patent Document 2 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2003-274514) discloses an unmanned transport system for transporting luggage to each room in a building having a large number of rooms such as a hospital. FIG. 7 is a schematic view of this transport system. In FIG. 7, this transport system includes a traveling track 01 and a carriage 010 movable along the traveling track 01, a battery is provided in the carriage 010, and the carriage 010 is loaded and unloaded on the traveling track 01. The station ST1 is provided with a plurality of stations ST1 for stopping, and each station ST1 is provided with a charging device 021 for charging the battery of the stopped cart 010. The charging device 021 is provided for a predetermined time after the stopping of the cart 010. And a second charging mode in which charging is performed with a charging current smaller than the charging current in the first mode.

また異なるフロアに配置されたステーションST2に台車010を移動させるためのリフタ020が設けられ、台車010は、走行軌道01とリフタ020との間を移動できるようになっている。また走行軌道01には、使用しない空の台車010を収容しておくための領域であるバッファBF1が設けられ、バッファBF1には、前記第1モードにおける充電電流よりも小さい充電電流により充電を行なう充電装置が設けられている。   Also, a lifter 020 for moving the carriage 010 is provided at the station ST2 arranged on a different floor, and the carriage 010 can move between the traveling track 01 and the lifter 020. Further, the running track 01 is provided with a buffer BF1, which is an area for storing an empty carriage 010 that is not used, and the buffer BF1 is charged with a charging current smaller than the charging current in the first mode. A charging device is provided.

かかる充電システムにより、台車が一つのステーションに停止した際には、はじめに大きい充電電流で充電を行なう第1の充電モードによって、短時間に大きな電力を台車のバッテリに充電し、また台車が停止してから所定時間経過した後は、小さい充電電流で充電を行なう第2の充電モードによって台車に充電することにより、台車のバッテリに負担をかけずに充電するようにしている。   With such a charging system, when the cart stops at one station, first, the first charging mode in which charging is performed with a large charging current, a large amount of power is charged to the cart battery in a short time, and the cart stops. After a predetermined time has elapsed, the vehicle is charged without applying a load to the vehicle by charging the vehicle in the second charging mode in which charging is performed with a small charging current.

また特許文献3(特開2005−57878号公報)には、電動式フォークリフト等産業用電動車両用のバッテリ充電設備装置が開示されている。この充電装置は、普通充電モードと、この普通充電モードよりも大きな充電電流でバッテリを急速充電する急速充電モードのうちの、いずれかの充電モードによりバッテリを充電可能なバッテリ充電装置であって、急速充電モードにおいてバッテリの液温や、トランス、整流部等の温度が過度に上昇するのを防止するため、急速充電モードによる充電が開始されてから所定の急速充電時間が経過したときには、充電を一旦停止して、充電電流がゼロの待機モードに充電モードを変更し、さらにこの待機モードが所定の待機時間の間継続したときには、充電モードを待機モードから普通充電モードに変更するように構成している。   Patent Document 3 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2005-57878) discloses a battery charging equipment for an industrial electric vehicle such as an electric forklift. The charging device is a battery charging device capable of charging a battery in any one of a normal charging mode and a quick charging mode in which a battery is rapidly charged with a charging current larger than the normal charging mode, In order to prevent the battery liquid temperature and the temperature of the transformer, rectifier, etc. from rising excessively in the quick charge mode, the battery is charged when a predetermined quick charge time has elapsed since the start of charging in the quick charge mode. Once it is stopped, the charging mode is changed to the standby mode with zero charging current, and when this standby mode continues for a predetermined standby time, the charging mode is changed from the standby mode to the normal charging mode. ing.

しかしながら特許文献2に開示された搬送システムの充電システムは、大きい充電電流で急速充電を行なう第1の充電モードと、該第1の充電モードより小さい充電電流で充電を行なう第2の充電モードという2つの充電モードを備え、これら2つの充電モードを切替え制御しているため、制御系が複雑になり、かつ台車の発停がそれほど頻繁ではなく、発停間隔がゆるやかな場合に適するものであって、前述の架線レス交通システムにおけるように、車両が駅舎等の停止施設で短時間で充電を受け、短時間で頻繁に発停を繰り返し、また停車時間が各駅で異なる場合などには適さない。
また特許文献3に開示された充電システムも、特許文献2と同様に充電間隔に時間的余裕がある場合の充電システムであり、かつ処理が複雑すぎて、車両のように短時間で頻繁に発停を繰り返し、大電流を要する大型移動体の充電システムには適さない。
However, the charging system of the transport system disclosed in Patent Document 2 is referred to as a first charging mode in which quick charging is performed with a large charging current and a second charging mode in which charging is performed with a charging current smaller than the first charging mode. Since two charging modes are provided and these two charging modes are switched and controlled, the control system becomes complicated, and the start and stop of the carriage is not so frequent and suitable for a case where the start and stop intervals are slow. In addition, as in the above-mentioned overhead line-less transportation system, the vehicle is charged in a short time at a stop facility such as a station building, repeatedly starts and stops frequently in a short time, and is not suitable when the stop time differs at each station. .
Similarly to Patent Document 2, the charging system disclosed in Patent Document 3 is a charging system in which there is a time margin in the charging interval, and the processing is too complicated, so that it frequently occurs in a short time like a vehicle. It is not suitable for a charging system for a large mobile object that repeatedly stops and requires a large current.

本発明は、設定された経路上を走行する車両に、蓄電装置を搭載させ、架線から電力の供給を受けずに走行する電気車両を用いた架線レス交通システムにおいて、充電方式を簡素化し、かつ車両基地での待機中でのメンテナンスも考慮した充電方式を採用することにより、待機位置から車両を設定された充電状態に精度良く保持しながら出発させるとともに、蓄電装置の過充電や過放電を防止して寿命を長くすることができる交通システム及び充電方法を提案することを目的とする。   The present invention simplifies the charging method in an overhead line-less traffic system using an electric vehicle in which a power storage device is mounted on a vehicle traveling on a set route, and the vehicle travels without receiving power from the overhead line, and By adopting a charging method that also considers maintenance during stand-by at the vehicle base, the vehicle is departed from the stand-by position while maintaining the charged state with high accuracy, and overcharging and overdischarging of the power storage device are prevented. It is an object of the present invention to propose a transportation system and a charging method that can extend the service life.

本発明では、車両が走行する経路に配置された充電設備では、急速充電が可能な定電流(定電力)による充電を行い、車両が駅間走行を止め待機経路で待機中の場合では、車両の蓄電装置(例えばリチウムイオン二次電池等の二次電池)への負担の少ない定電圧による充電を行い、これによって蓄電装置の液温やトランス、整流部等の温度が過度に上昇するのを防止し、蓄電装置の寿命が低下するのを防止する。本発明では車両走行経路での充電は、定電流(定電力)充電のみとすることにより、充電中に充電モードを切り替える必要がなく、装置構成を簡素化できる。定電圧による充電は、充電電源を小型化することができる。   In the present invention, in a charging facility arranged on a route on which the vehicle travels, charging is performed with a constant current (constant power) capable of rapid charging, and when the vehicle stops traveling between stations and is waiting on a standby route, The power storage device (for example, a secondary battery such as a lithium ion secondary battery) is charged with a constant voltage, which reduces the temperature of the liquid storage device, transformer, rectifier, etc. excessively. Preventing the life of the power storage device from being lowered. In the present invention, charging on the vehicle travel route is limited to constant current (constant power) charging, so that it is not necessary to switch the charging mode during charging, and the device configuration can be simplified. Charging with a constant voltage can reduce the charging power source.

このため本発明の交通システム及び充電方法に適用される本発明の車両は、

また定電流で充電する場合蓄電装置の電圧が徐々に上昇してくるが、本発明方法においては、定電流(定電力)充電において、蓄電装置の電圧を検出して、その検出値と予め設定された充電終了電圧とを比較することで、充電動作の終了時点を決定するようにしてもよい。かかる構成により、蓄電装置の過充電を防止することができる。   In addition, when charging with a constant current, the voltage of the power storage device gradually increases.

また本発明の充電方法によれば、車両走行経路に沿った充電場所では車両に対し定電流(定電力)による急速充電を行い、車両走行経路に接続された待機経路で待機中の車両には定電圧による待機充電を行うことにより、車両走行経路での充電は、定電流(定電力)充電のみとするため、急速充電中に充電モードを切り替える必要がなく、装置構成を簡素化できるとともに、待機経路での待機中は蓄電装置への負担が少ない定電圧による充電を行うため、蓄電装置の液温やトランス、整流部等の温度が過度に上昇するのを防止し、蓄電装置の寿命が低下するのを防止することができる。   Further, according to the charging method of the present invention, the vehicle is rapidly charged with a constant current (constant power) at a charging place along the vehicle travel route, and the vehicle waiting on the standby route connected to the vehicle travel route is By performing standby charging with constant voltage, charging on the vehicle travel route is only constant current (constant power) charging, so there is no need to switch the charging mode during rapid charging, and the device configuration can be simplified, During standby in the standby path, charging is performed with a constant voltage that places little burden on the power storage device, preventing excessive increase in the liquid temperature of the power storage device and the temperature of the transformer, rectifier, etc. It is possible to prevent the decrease.

また本発明の充電管理方法によれば、車両走行経路に接続された待機経路で待機中の車両に定電圧による充電を行い、その後車両の蓄電装置を待機中での充電電圧を保持させながら出発し車両走行経路に乗り入れ、その後車両を前記充電場所で定電流(定電力)充電による急速充電を行いながら駅間走行させ、駅間走行後車両を待機経路に移動させて定電圧充電を行い、充電電流(充電電力)が設定値以下となったら充電を停止させ、さらに前記定電圧充電又は定電流(定電力)充電中は蓄電装置を最適温度に保持するようにしたことにより、待機経路での待機中は、蓄電装置の負担にならず電池残量を維持できる定電圧での充電を長時間行なえるため、通電を要するメンテナンス時に電池残量を気にする必要がなくなり、車両の出発時に設定された電圧を保持させながら走行経路に乗り入れることが容易になるとともに、充電中は蓄電装置をその作動に最適な温度に保持できるので、メンテナンスや通電の必要が無いときでも待機充電を継続し蓄電装置を常に最適温度に保持することもでき、蓄電装置の寿命を伸ばすことができる。   Further, according to the charge management method of the present invention, the vehicle that is on standby in the standby path connected to the vehicle travel path is charged with a constant voltage, and then the vehicle power storage device is departed while holding the standby charging voltage. Then, enter the vehicle travel route, then run the vehicle between stations while performing rapid charging by constant current (constant power) charging at the charging location, move the vehicle to the standby route after running between stations, perform constant voltage charging, By stopping charging when the charging current (charging power) falls below the set value, and further maintaining the power storage device at the optimum temperature during the constant voltage charging or constant current (constant power) charging, During standby, the battery can be charged at a constant voltage for a long time without burdening the power storage device, so there is no need to worry about the remaining battery level during maintenance that requires energization. Setting It is easy to enter the driving route while maintaining the voltage, and during charging, the power storage device can be maintained at the optimum temperature for its operation, so standby charging is continued even when there is no need for maintenance or energization. The device can always be maintained at the optimum temperature, and the life of the power storage device can be extended.

A constant voltage charging facility 30 is provided on the side of the vehicle main body 10. The constant voltage charging facility 30 is connected to the charging power source 31, the constant voltage charging means 32, and the charging power source 31, and the power receiving device 14 installed in the vehicle main body 10 when the vehicle main body 10 stops near the charging facility 30 for charging. The power transmission apparatus 33 provided so that contact is possible. The power receiving device 14 is a contact type power receiving device for receiving charging with a constant voltage.

かかる構成の第1実施例において、その動作手順を図5のフローチャートにより説明する。なお図5において、左側のフローは車両基地5での動作手順であり、右側フローは本線1での動作手順である。図5において、先ず車両基地5で待機状態にある車両10に待機充電のための通電が開始される(ステップ1)。ここで図4に示すように、車両本体10の受電装置14が、充電設備30の送電装置33と接触しながら、定電圧による充電を受け、少なくとも最初に停車する駅まで走行可能な電力量の充電を受ける。   In the first embodiment having such a configuration, the operation procedure will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. In FIG. 5, the left flow is an operation procedure at the vehicle base 5, and the right flow is an operation procedure at the main line 1. In FIG. 5, first, energization for standby charging is started in the vehicle 10 in the standby state at the vehicle base 5 (step 1). Here, as shown in FIG. 4, the power receiving device 14 of the vehicle main body 10 is charged with a constant voltage while being in contact with the power transmitting device 33 of the charging facility 30, and at least the amount of power that can travel to the station that stops first. Get charged.

定電圧による充電を受けた車両本体10は、出庫命令を受けると、本線1へ出発する(ステップ2)。本線1に出た車両本体10は駅間走行を行なう(ステップ3)。駅間走行中、車両本体10は、駅停車時に図3に示す充電設備20により定電流(定電力)による急速充電を受ける(ステップ4)。
車両本体10には、車両充電制御装置15と二次電池12の電圧を検出する手段18が装備され、車両充電制御装置15には、充電終了電圧を予め設定する充電終了電圧設定手段16と、電圧検出手段18よって検出された電圧検出値と予め設定された充電終了電圧とを比較する比較手段14が装備されている。
The vehicle main body 10 that has been charged by the constant voltage departs to the main line 1 when receiving a shipping instruction (step 2). The vehicle body 10 exiting the main line 1 travels between stations (step 3). During traveling between stations, the vehicle main body 10 receives rapid charging with a constant current (constant power) by the charging facility 20 shown in FIG. 3 when the station stops (step 4).
The vehicle body 10 is equipped with a vehicle charging control device 15 and a means 18 for detecting the voltage of the secondary battery 12, and the vehicle charging control device 15 has a charging end voltage setting means 16 for presetting a charging end voltage, Comparing means 14 is provided for comparing the voltage detection value detected by the voltage detecting means 18 with a preset charging end voltage.

定電流(定電力)による急速充電を続けると、次第に二次電池12の電圧が上昇してくる。これを電圧検出手段18で検出して、充電終了設定電圧に達すると、比較手段17でこれを判定し、この信号を車載通信装置19から充電設備20側の通信装置(図示略)を介して充電設備20に送信し、充電を終了させる。   If rapid charging with constant current (constant power) is continued, the voltage of the secondary battery 12 gradually increases. When this is detected by the voltage detection means 18 and reaches the charging end set voltage, the comparison means 17 determines this, and this signal is transmitted from the in-vehicle communication device 19 to the charging equipment 20 side communication device (not shown). The data is transmitted to the charging facility 20, and charging is terminated.

なお充電終了設定電圧は、車両充電制御装置11により駅ごとに異ならせてもよい。これによって、充電状態SOCを精度良く管理できるとともに、過充電を防止し二次電池12の劣化を抑制することができる。また複雑な制御手順でなく、簡単なオンオフ制御であるので、制御系を簡素化し、シンプルなシステムとすることができる。   The charging end setting voltage may be changed for each station by the vehicle charging control device 11. As a result, the state of charge SOC can be managed with high accuracy, overcharge can be prevented, and deterioration of the secondary battery 12 can be suppressed. Moreover, since it is not a complicated control procedure but simple on / off control, the control system can be simplified and a simple system can be obtained.

ここで図5に示す第1実施例の動作手順に戻ると、車両本体10が駅停車時に急速充電を受けた後、次の駅に向けて走行する(ステップ5)。その後営業運転を終えると、帰還命令を受信して、車両基地5に帰還する(ステップ6)。
車両基地5に帰還した車両本体10は待機充電を開始し、図4に示す充電設備30で二次電池12に負担をかけない定電圧充電を行なう。この場合地上送電装置33を定電圧充電専用の車載受電装置14に接触させて通電する(ステップ7)。
なおメンテナンスのための充電が必要であれば、充電を継続し(ステップ8)、不要であれば、充電電流(充電電力)値が規定値以下となったら、待機充電を終了する(ステップ9)。
Here, when returning to the operation procedure of the first embodiment shown in FIG. 5, the vehicle body 10 travels to the next station after receiving a quick charge when the station stops (step 5). Thereafter, when the commercial operation is finished, a return instruction is received and returned to the vehicle base 5 (step 6).
The vehicle body 10 that has returned to the vehicle base 5 starts standby charging, and performs constant voltage charging that does not place a burden on the secondary battery 12 with the charging facility 30 shown in FIG. In this case, the ground power transmitting device 33 is brought into contact with the in-vehicle power receiving device 14 dedicated to constant voltage charging and energized (step 7).
If charging for maintenance is necessary, charging is continued (step 8). If not required, standby charging is terminated when the charging current (charging power) value is equal to or less than a specified value (step 9). .

かかる第1実施例によれば、頻繁な発停を要する駅間走行時には定電流(定電力)による急速充電を行なうことにより、短時間での充電を可能とするとともに、急速充電のみを行う単純な充電方式であるので、充電モードを切り替える必要がなく、複雑な制御を不要とし、また車両基地5での待機時では蓄電装置に負担のかからない一定の電圧で充電を行なうため、装置構成を縮小でき、また二次電池12の液温やトランス、整流部等の温度が過度に上昇するのを防止し、その寿命が低下するのを防止することができる。   According to the first embodiment, when traveling between stations requiring frequent start and stop, quick charging with a constant current (constant power) is performed, so that charging in a short time is possible and simple charging is performed only for rapid charging. Since it is a simple charging method, there is no need to switch the charging mode, no complicated control is required, and charging is performed at a constant voltage that does not place a burden on the power storage device during standby at the vehicle base 5, so the device configuration is reduced. In addition, it is possible to prevent the liquid temperature of the secondary battery 12 and the temperature of the transformer, the rectifying unit, and the like from rising excessively, and to prevent the life of the secondary battery 12 from decreasing.

また車両基地5での始動時には、設定された一定の電圧による待機充電を行ない、車両の出発時にはその設定された電圧を保持しながら出発しそのまま走行経路に乗り入れることが容易であり、また車両基地5での待機中は定電圧による待機充電を行なうため電池残量を維持することができ、通電を要するメンテナンス時に電池残量を気にする必要がない。
なお本実施例では、車載受電装置は、非接触式充電用と接触式充電用の2つを二次電池12に並列に設けているが、急速充電と待機充電の両方の機能を有する1つの車載受電装置とする構成としてもよい。
When starting at the vehicle base 5, standby charging is performed with a set constant voltage, and when the vehicle departs, it is easy to leave while maintaining the set voltage and enter the travel route as it is. During standby at 5, the battery charge can be maintained because standby charging is performed at a constant voltage, and there is no need to worry about the battery charge during maintenance requiring energization.
In the present embodiment, the in-vehicle power receiving device is provided in parallel with the secondary battery 12 for non-contact charging and for contact charging. However, the in-vehicle power receiving device has one function of both rapid charging and standby charging. It is good also as a structure used as a vehicle-mounted power receiving apparatus.

次に本発明の第2実施例を図6により説明する。図6において、本第2実施例は、車両本体10に搭載された二次電池12に温度調整手段41を付設したものである。該温度調整手段41は、例えばファンによる空冷や、車両に搭載されたラジエータやヒータによる加熱、あるいは車両に搭載された空調設備で温度調整された空気を蓄電装置に導入する等の手段が適用できる。

Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. In FIG. 6, in the second embodiment, a temperature adjusting means 41 is added to the secondary battery 12 mounted on the vehicle body 10. As the temperature adjusting means 41, for example, air cooling by a fan, heating by a radiator or heater mounted on a vehicle, or air whose temperature is adjusted by an air conditioning facility mounted on a vehicle is introduced into a power storage device. .
The other parts are the same as those in the first embodiment, and therefore, the same reference numerals as those in the first embodiment are given to the first embodiment, and the explanation of the same parts is omitted.

かかる第2実施例によれば、二次電池12の温度調整手段41を設けることにより、二次電池12の作動に最適な温度に維持することができる。例えば15℃前後がよい。従って二次電池12の寿命を延ばすことができる。これによって、寒冷地や猛暑の地でも蓄電装置の作動に好適な温度に保持することができ、蓄電装置の寿命を延ばすことができる。   According to the second embodiment, by providing the temperature adjusting means 41 of the secondary battery 12, it is possible to maintain the temperature optimal for the operation of the secondary battery 12. For example, about 15 ° C. is preferable. Therefore, the lifetime of the secondary battery 12 can be extended. Accordingly, it is possible to maintain a temperature suitable for the operation of the power storage device even in a cold region or a very hot region, thereby extending the life of the power storage device.
