[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a display control panel, which is a terminal of an electronic interlocking device for railways, and more particularly to a display control panel capable of displaying train schedule information and train operation status.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art FIG. 11 is a diagram showing a hardware configuration of a train schedule display device which is one of conventional display control boards.
A graphic output device such as a color graphic display device and an input device such as a keyboard are connected to the main body device, and the main body device inputs / outputs information to / from the outside via a cable. FIG. 12 is an example of a train operation status display in which tracking information of a running train is input and the train position is displayed on a route wiring diagram by using train marks. This is to output the actual route form and signal equipment to a graphic output device connected to the main unit, receive signal indications, train positions, etc. via cables, and display the actual operation status in real time. Yes, the train mark indicating the train position is
The display position moves as the train runs. According to this operation status display, the number and positions of trains currently on the route, train intervals, etc. can be grasped at a glance. However, in this train operation status display, it is possible to obtain so-called train timetable data, such as which station any train indicated by the train mark travels from and to which station arrives at what time. I couldn't. Therefore, as a method of obtaining the train schedule data, as shown in FIG. 13, from the train schedule display in which the train schedule data is displayed in a streak format at the coordinates where the horizontal axis represents time and the vertical axis represents the station, I read the arrival time and destination of each train station.

[0003]

In such a conventional display control panel, the train schedule display in the form of stripes and the operation status display in the train mark display on the station wiring diagram are independently performed. Therefore, in order to obtain the timetable data of any train displayed by the train mark, judge from the current time and the position of the train mark, and check the train line from the train line of all trains shown in the streak format. It was necessary to select a diamond line and read various diamond data from the diamond line. Therefore, when the timetable is disturbed, the train is not at the planned timetable position, so it is difficult to select the corresponding diamond line from the position of the train mark. Further, even if the train schedule for the train mark can be selected, it is necessary to read the graph for various schedule information, and there is a problem that the schedule change command for recovering the schedule disorder cannot be promptly issued.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems. A first object of the present invention is to obtain timetable data for each train on the operation status display showing the current train position. This is to obtain a display control panel that can be provided immediately. A second object is to obtain a display control panel that can quickly change the timetable on the operation status display when the timetable is disturbed.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiment 1. FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram showing an embodiment of the present invention. Reference numeral 1 is a tracking information receiving unit for receiving train tracking data from an electronic interlocking device which is tracking a train, and is stored as a train tracking data file 2. . A train data management unit 3 reads the train tracking data file 2 and the train schedule data file 4 and edits the train data necessary for displaying the train marks and train lines on the screen. A train mark data management unit 5 creates train mark data from the train data edited by the train data management unit 3 so that it can recognize which train each train mark indicates. Is uniquely added to each train mark and the additional information is retained.
An operation status display input / output unit 6 outputs the train mark data to a display device 9 described later. Reference numeral 7 denotes a train line data management unit that creates train line data from the train data edited by the train data management unit 3, and holds additional information of the train recognition ID for each train line as described above. Reference numeral 8 denotes a train line display input / output unit that outputs the train line data to the display device 9. When an arbitrary train is selected from the input device 11 via the operation status display input / output unit 6 or the train streak display input / output unit 10, 10 displays the train timetable data on the operation status display or train streak display. It is a diagram data display portion to be displayed.

In the display control panel thus constructed, the train operation status is normally displayed by using the train marks for the trains existing on the route wiring diagram. The train position is calculated by the train data management unit 3 based on the train tracking information received from the electronic interlocking device. Train mark data management unit 5
Manages the data for displaying the train mark at the calculated train position, and at this time, holds the information of the train recognition ID that can recognize which train each train mark indicates. As the train identification ID, the train number uniquely assigned to each train and the record No. of the train schedule data file. Etc. are used, but in the following description, train numbers will be used for explanation. The operation status display input / output unit 6 outputs the train mark to the position on the route wiring diagram corresponding to the calculated train position. Therefore, as many train marks as there are trains currently running on the route wiring diagram,
Each train mark is moving on the route wiring diagram as it is actually running.

Now, a method of selecting one of the train marks and obtaining the train schedule data will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. First, a train mark on the screen is selected with, for example, a mouse (S1). At this time, the operation status display input / output unit 6 changes the color of the selected train mark to a selection color different from other train marks, and transmits train mark selection notification information to the train mark data management unit 5.
The train mark data management unit 5 recognizes from the train recognition ID information holding the train number indicated by the selected train mark (S2), inquires of the train data management unit 3 using the train number as a key, and The timetable data is acquired from the train timetable data file 4 (S3). The timetable data thus obtained is sent to the timetable data display unit 10, and the timetable data display unit 10 edits the timetable data into display data and outputs it to the operation status display input / output unit 6. The operation status display input / output unit 6 displays the schedule data near the position of the selected train mark on the operation status display, for example (S4).

FIG. 3 shows 04 on the operation status display screen.
It shows an example of outputting the schedule data of the S train. According to this, at the current time 11:10:00, the station shows that 04S (eg, up train) and 01S (eg, down train) are stopped, and 10S (eg, up train) is approaching the station. ing. As a result of selecting the 04S train mark in the operation status display with a mouse or the like, the color of the 04S train mark changes, and the train schedule data of the 04S train is displayed in a table format. In the example of FIG. 3, as the displayed timetable data, the train number, the starting station and the destination station indicating the traveling section of the train, and the arrival time and the scheduled departure time in the planned timetable of the currently stopped station are displayed. However, for trains running between stations, the estimated arrival time and departure time of the next station may be displayed. Further, arrival / departure times of all stations in the traveling section may be displayed. In that case, necessary diamond data items may be determined in advance in the diamond data display unit 10. Further, in the above example, the train schedule data file 4 is described as targeting the planned schedule data, but the actual schedule schedule data in which the actual arrival / departure information of the station is accumulated may also be targeted as necessary. Good. From the above,
The train timetable data indicated by the train mark displayed on the route wiring diagram can be immediately obtained, and train delays can be immediately grasped.

On the other hand, the train line data management unit 7 inputs train arrival / departure times of all trains obtained from the train schedule data file 4 from the train data management unit 3 to create train line data, and a train line display input / output unit. 8 is a train line display device at the coordinates where the horizontal axis is time and the vertical axis is the station on the actual line.
Output to. Also on this train line display screen, when an arbitrary train line is selected by a mouse or the like, the train line display input / output unit 8 changes the color of the selected train line to another, as described in the flowchart of FIG. The train stripe selection management information is transmitted to the train stripe data management unit 7 by changing the selection color different from that of the train stripe. The train line data management unit 7 acquires the train schedule data from the train schedule data file via the train data management unit 3 using the train number of the selected train as a key. The acquired timetable data is edited into display data in the timetable data display unit 10, and is displayed on the train line display by the train line display input / output unit 8. FIG. 4 shows an example of displaying the train schedule data of 04S on the train line display screen.

When the operation status display shown in FIG. 3 and the train streak display shown in FIG. 4 are simultaneously output, for example, when the train mark in the operation status display is selected,
Change the color of the train stripe of the train indicated by that train mark,
By displaying it by distinguishing it from other train lines such as blinking, the train line for any train mark can be provided immediately. This is because the train mark data management unit 5 recognizes the train number indicated by the selected train mark by the additional information of the train recognition ID held therein, and transmits the train number to the train line data management unit 7. This is because the train streak data management unit 7 can recognize the train streak to which the train number is added based on the additional information that is also held. With the same idea, a train mark for any train stripe can be provided immediately. As described above, during the operation status display indicating the train position, the timetable data of each train is immediately obtained, and when the timetable is disturbed, it is possible to quickly respond.

Embodiment 2. FIG. 5 is a functional configuration diagram of the display control panel according to the second embodiment, which is the first embodiment shown in FIG.
The diagram change processing unit 12 is added to the configuration of FIG. The timetable change processing unit 12 outputs a change menu for changing the timetable data of the train corresponding to the selected train mark or train stripe, and changes the timetable according to the change selected from the menu. .
However, when the train mark or the train stripe is selected, for example, the train mark is displayed as to whether the timetable data display as described in the first embodiment is performed or the timetable change process described in the second embodiment is performed. It is possible to distinguish the selection means of "and train stripes" by distinguishing them with a mouse and a keyboard, or by adding another input item such as "display" and "change".

The processing of the timetable change processing unit 12 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. First, when an operator such as a train operation monitor selects a train mark on the operation status display screen for the purpose of issuing a timetable change command, the operation status display input / output unit 6 changes the color of the train mark to another. (T1), and the train mark selection notification information is transmitted to the train mark data management unit 5 (T1).
2). The train mark data management unit 5 is the same as in the first embodiment.
Similarly to, the train number indicated by the selected train mark is recognized, and the train number is transmitted to the timetable change processing unit 12.
The timetable change processing unit 12 edits the timetable change menu according to the acquired train number (T3), and displays the timetable change menu on the display device 9 via the operation status display input / output unit 6 (T4). FIG. 7 is an example in which a timetable change menu is displayed when the train mark of 04S train is selected. Further, FIG. 8 is an example in which a timetable change menu is displayed when the train stripe of the 04S train is selected.

When the operator looks at the displayed timetable change menu and selects a change item to be made from the menu, an inquiry is made to the timetable change processing section 12 to display a screen for inputting data necessary for the change. Yes (T5). When the operator inputs necessary data according to the displayed input screen (T6), the change command is transmitted to the timetable change processing unit 12 (T7). The timetable change processing unit 12 changes the timetable data of the train in the train timetable data file 4 based on the received timetable change command (T
8). Finally, when the train mark is selected for the purpose of displaying the timetable data again with respect to the changed train mark, the train timetable data file 4 after the change is changed in the same procedure as described in the first embodiment. The data is acquired and the changed diamond data is displayed (T9). Figure 9
Shows the screen when the timetable data is displayed again as a result of changing the timetable for the train mark of the 04S train, "suspended" (C station to B station), and the destination station is changed to C station. The departure time at station C is "-" (no departure). In addition, in FIG. 10, for the train stripe of 04S train,
As a result of making the same change as above, in the screen when the timetable data is displayed again, in this case, the train stripe of the 04S train is also erased from the portion beyond the C station.
Due to the above, when the timetable is disturbed and it becomes necessary to change the timetable, the operator can easily change the timetable according to the menu displayed on the screen while looking at the operation status display screen. You can deal with it.

[0017]

Since the present invention is constructed as described above, it has the following effects.

When the train position is displayed on the route wiring diagram by the train mark based on the train tracking information, when an arbitrary train mark on the route wiring diagram is selected,
Since the train schedule data indicated by the train mark is displayed on the same screen as the operation status display, the position of the train and the schedule data can be grasped at the same time.

Further, when the train mark on the route wiring diagram is selected, the train dial indicated by the train mark is displayed separately from other trains in the dial train display of all trains.
It is not necessary to judge the train stripe corresponding to an arbitrary train mark on the route wiring diagram from the train position or the current time, and even when the schedule is disturbed, the corresponding diamond stripe can be surely acquired.

Also, when an arbitrary train mark on the route wiring diagram is selected, a menu for changing the timetable data is displayed, and the change data is input according to the menu. The timetable can be changed quickly when the timetable is disturbed.
