7) and the display device (8) and outputs them to each device +71 (81).

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

Conventional train operation management systems are configured as described above, so that once the operation timetable has been set, it becomes necessary to change the contents due to, for example, a temporary train operation or a change in destination due to a vehicle malfunction. In this case, the station controllers (3) of all the stations involved must create new passenger guidance information for each station based on the changed service schedule from the central computer (1), and the processing There was a problem in that depending on the amount, it would affect the functions of the station control device (3), such as route control.

This invention was made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and it does not impair station control functions due to updates of passenger information due to changes in service schedules, and provides a high-speed and reliable system. The purpose is to obtain a high quality train operation management system.

[Means to solve the problem]

The train operation management system according to the present invention separates the function of processing passenger guidance information from the station control device, and includes a guidance management device that collectively creates passenger guidance information for all stations, and also includes a transmission line at each station. A station guidance control device is installed that inputs the above passenger guidance information through the station and controls the passenger guidance equipment at the station.

[Effect]

In this invention, the passenger guidance information is created by the guidance management device for all outside stations, and is transmitted to the station guidance control device of each station via the transmission line. control. Even when the operating schedule is changed due to temporary train operation, etc., the guidance management device updates the passenger guidance information all at once, and transmits this to the station guidance control device to process the information changes. , the processing amount of the station control device does not particularly increase due to the updating of passenger guide information.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

In Figure 1, (1) (21, +41 (51, (
71 (81 is the same as in the conventional case, so the explanation will be omitted. (9) inputs the service schedule from the central computer (1) via the transmission line (2) and provides passenger information for all stations from No. 1. The guidance management device 00 is a station control device installed at each station and corresponds to the conventional station control device (3), but does not create passenger guidance information as will be described later.

(1) l is a station guidance control device, which is a conventional station guidance control device (
6), but is directly connected to the transmission line (2) and has an interface between the relay violation 1 device (4) and the guidance management device (9). FIG. 2 is a block diagram extracted from FIG. 1 that relates only to the passenger information system.

Next, the operation will be explained.

First, the central computer (1) creates a schedule for controlling the operation of all trains, and transmits this to the guidance management device (9) and the station control device αO of each station via the transmission path (2). The guidance management device (9) creates and stores passenger guidance information for all lines at all stations based on the service schedule. Of this passenger guidance information, information for a predetermined number of trains in the order of earliest guidance timing is transmitted in advance from the guidance management device (9) to the station guidance control device (0) of each station. The preparations for passenger guidance control will be made by the above process. This lung,
The station guidance control device 111) outputs a signal for the first train to the display device (8) to display its passenger guidance.

Next, when the first-place train approaches the target station, the station guidance control device ~ αB of the station transmits a signal based on the passenger guidance information of the first-place train that previously displayed passenger guidance to the broadcasting device. (
7) to perform passenger information broadcasts.

This is what is called close-in broadcasting. The timing of the broadcast at this time is independently determined by the station guidance control device α1) based on the train operation status obtained from the relay interlocking device (4).

Furthermore, the station guidance control device 01J broadcasts passenger guidance based on the departure time of the train included in the passenger guidance information. This is what is called a departure broadcast. After confirming the departure timing of the train, the passenger information display is updated to that of the second-ranked train. At the same time, the station guidance control device αB sends new information to the central computer (1) about the train following the several trains for which the passenger guidance information is already stored.
request with. The above operations are performed in parallel to a unit in which the broadcasting device (7) and the display device (8) are installed, for example, a number line button.

Next, the operation when the bus schedule is changed will be explained. First, in response to a command to change, the central computer (υ) creates its own schedule and changes it.
In addition, the service schedule will be transmitted to a certain Naikeki Risobo (9). In response to this, the guidance management device (9) updates the passenger guidance information. As a result, the station chai control device f1. When the passenger guidance information already transmitted to the station is changed 1'L, the newly divided and recorded passenger guidance information is transmitted to the station guidance control device σD.

In other words, passenger guidance information is created by the guidance management device (9) 1, and the station control device QCI only needs to perform the original station control processing such as train route control, so even if the operation schedule is changed during operation. Even if there is a change, the original station control function will not be affected due to the update of passenger information information.

In addition, in the above dP example, the guidance control timing of the station guidance control device α! i. Obtained from the electric interlocking device (4), but by obtaining information such as the timing and passenger car number from the station control device αO, a reliable link (coincidence) between passenger guidance equipment and route control, etc. can be achieved. can be achieved.

In addition, the central computer (υ
Even in the event of a breakdown, the passenger guidance system can be made into an independent system by arbitrarily creating passenger guidance information based on the operation schedule. By doing so, it is possible to realize a stable passenger guidance control system that is not easily affected by abnormalities in the station control system or the like.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, the present invention includes a guidance management device that collectively creates all translations of passenger guidance information, and a station guidance control device that controls passenger guidance equipment at each station based on future information. Since the processing is separated from the station control system, even if the train schedule changes, the station control function will not be impaired due to the update of passenger guidance information, creating a high-speed and highly reliable train operation management system. be achieved.
