Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a vehicle approach display method that can be applied, for example, to a train approach display for passenger service at a railway station. [Prior Art] There is an example of a service that notifies passengers waiting for a train that a train is approaching. For example, an indicator as shown in Figure 8 is installed, and the arrow with symbol 1 lights up when departing from the station before the previous station, and the arrow with symbol 1 goes off when arriving at the previous station, and then the previous station display with symbol 2 is turned on. Turn on the light and mark 2 at the start of the pre-translation
After turning off the display at the station in front of the station, the arrow of symbol 3 is turned on. [Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, such a display method is applicable to a railway with a simple operation mode in which only a single type of train runs, there are no passing trains, and there is no overtaking or giving way. , there is a problem that it cannot be applied to other things. For example, if there is a waiting train at the previous station and the following train is of the type of operation that passes both the previous station and the current station, the fact that the waiting train 5 is stopping at the previous station as shown in Figure 9 means that You can tell by the fact that the indicator at the previous station with symbol 2 lights up. However, the train will not arrive at the station immediately, but this display cannot indicate that. Also, when a train passing the previous station is running between the previous station and this station, the arrow symbol 3 will also light up, but even though the train is not stopping at this station, the display does not indicate this.

[A Thousand Steps to Solve the Problems] In order to solve these problems, the present invention provides a display device that displays the approach of a vehicle passing through the target station and a display device that displays the approach of a vehicle that stops at the target station. The display for trains stopping at the target station has the function of evacuating or not evacuating at the evacuation station, and the display state can be changed. [Function] The upper row displays trains that stop at this station, and the lower row displays trains that pass through this station. If a train stops at or passes through this station, it will be displayed in a lit state, and if a train is stopping at this station but is taking shelter from a priority train, it will be displayed in a flashing state. Then, when the evacuation is completed, the blinking display changes to a lit display. [Embodiment] Fig. 1 shows an embodiment of a display device constructed by applying the present invention, in which displays 10 to 13 are displays for displaying trains stopping at the current station, and displays 15 to 18 are for displaying trains stopping at the current station. These are indicators for trains passing through the station, 10.15 is the indicator for the station before the previous station, 12.17 is the indicator for the previous station, and the others are indicators for the stations between stations. These indicators are controlled according to signals supplied from the CTC central unit, which will be described later, but indicators 10 to 13 will blink if a priority train is being evacuated at this station or a station before this station. When the evacuation is completed, the display changes to a lit display.

As shown in Figure 2, this display is realized as a function of a traffic management system that automatically controls the operation of trains on all lines.
, an operation monitoring panel 22, an operation console 23, etc. are installed, and a CTC station device 24 is installed at each interlocking station.The CTC device collects train position information on all lines and status information of interlocking devices, and the central processing unit It is designed to be supplied to The central processing unit memorizes the operation schedule of all trains for the day, sets the operation number and train type for each train in its own memory, and performs the following processing. (a) Track all trains based on train location information. (b) Automatically control the routes for all trains based on the operation schedule, and at the same time, the destination guidance display 25 at each station
It also controls. (c) Based on train tracking, all types of trains are known where they are on the line, and based on this, the display conditions for the approach indicator 26 at each station are created. (d) Among the route control conditions output by the central processing unit 21, the destination guide display control conditions and the approach indicator display conditions are transmitted to the station by the CTC device. (e) For intermediate stations, the inter-station transmission device 27 managed by the CTC station device 24 transmits the display conditions for the destination guide display and approach display. The operation of the device constructed in this way will be explained with reference to FIGS. 3 to 7. In the figure, station B is defined as an interlocking station and other intermediate stations. Figure 3 is an example where the intermediate station E station is the current station.
In Figure (a), there is an honor train 30 passing through E station at C station, a train 31 stopping at E station between B station and C station, and an honor train 32 passing through E station before A station. (Hereafter, honor trains are shown in black). In this case, if the display device has the display capacity for three stations, this display device will display stations C, DwR, and E, as shown in Figure 3(b). Therefore, at this point, it is possible to display up to C station, and since there is a train passing E station at C station, the lower display lights up (the lighting status is displayed by filling it out).
Therefore, users of E station can know that a train is coming to C station, but that they cannot board the train. At this time, the trains 3l and 32 are not displayed because they are still outside the display range of the display device.

Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 3(C), when the train 30 departs from C station and the train 32 passes through A station, the train 30 is indicated by the indicator 16 as being at D station as shown in FIG. 3(d). It will be displayed that the train is approaching, but users at E Station will be informed that they cannot board the train. train 31.32
is still outside the display range of the display device. In FIG. 3(e), train 30 has arrived at D station, train 31 has arrived at C station, and train 32 is passing through B station. At this time, as shown in FIG. 3(f), since the train 3l is a train that stops at E station, the upper display 10 of the display at C station lights up. You can know that the train has arrived at C station. Display l7 indicating train 30 also lights up, but since this is the lower display, it indicates that you cannot board the train at E station. In Figure 3 (g), train 30 is in front of E station and train 31 is in front of C station.
This is an example when the train 32 is in front of Station C, and in this case, the display IO and the display 18 light up as shown in FIG. 3(h). Figure 3 (i) is an example where train 31 is in front of station D and train 32 is in front of station C. In this case, the indicator l1 lights up as shown in figure 3 (j). This allows users at E station to be informed that a train stopping at E station is just before D station. Figure 3 (k) shows that train 31, which stops at E station, arrives at D station, and train 32, which passes through E station, arrives at C
This is the case when the train arrives at the station, and at this time, the indicators 12 and 15 light up as shown in Fig. 3<i>, but the upper indicator 12 shows that the train stopping at E station has arrived at D station. However, it is possible to inform the users of E station that they cannot board the train that is stopping at C station.

Figure 4 is an example of display when station D corresponds to this station.
Figure (a) shows a case where a train 31 stopping at D station departs from A station, but at this time it is outside the display range of the display device, so the fourth
As shown in Figure (b), it is not displayed on the display device. When train 31, which stops at D station, arrives at B station, it enters the siding track and waits for the following superior train. Since this train is a train that stops at station D, it is displayed on the upper display 10 of the displays representing station B, as shown in FIG. 4(b).
Since it is in the standby state, the display 10 flashes (
Blinking display is indicated by hatching). FIG. 4(e) shows a state in which the following honor train 32 passes through B station, and at this time, as shown in FIG. 4(f), the display at B station shows that the train stopping at D station is A flashing indicator 10 indicates that the train is in a standby state, and a lighting indicator 15 indicates that the train 32 passing through D station is at B station. Therefore, users at D station can know that a train stopping at D station has arrived at B station to take shelter from a passing train. Figure 4 (g) shows the state in which the honor train 32 has passed through B station, and at this time, the train 31
Since evacuation has been completed, the display device changes from blinking to lighting as shown in Figure 4 (h). Then, since the train 3l has passed through station B, the indicator 16 lights up. Therefore, users of D station can know that train 31, which is stopping at D station, will soon depart from D station. Figures 4 (i) and (j) show train 32 arriving at C station and train 31 approaching C station in Figure 4 (k),
(!J) is where train 3l approaches station C and train 32 approaches station D. In this way, users of D Station can grasp the progress of the train by checking the lighting and flashing states of the upper and lower indicators, and can know whether the train is passing through D Station or is stopping at D Station. ．． Figure 5 shows an example when station C is displayed as the current station.
In Figure 5 (a), the train 31 that stops at C station is waiting for the following superior train at B station, so in Figure 5 (b), it is just before B station, but since it is a waiting train, the display 11 is blinking. This is shown in Figure 5 (c) to (h).
The explanation up to this point is the same as that described above, and shows a state in which a train 31 stopping at C station is taking shelter at B station and being overtaken by a train 32 passing through C station. Figure 5(i). In (j), the evacuation of train 3■ has been completed, so the indicator 12 changes from flashing to lit, and the train stopping at C station has arrived at A station. Train 33 is not an evacuation train, so the indicator 12 changes from flashing to lit. is lit. Figure 5(k) <n> shows trains 31 to 33 running between stations. Figure 6 shows an example of the display when C station is the current station and G is the evacuation station. In Fig. 6(a), the train stops at C station, but since the train 3l to be evacuated there is at A station, the display IO is blinking as shown in Fig. 6(b). Figures 6(C) to 6(f) show the train in progress. Figure 6 (g) shows the case where train 32, which is an honor train but stops at C station, arrives at A station after train 3l. Since this train stops at C station, Figure 6 (h) The display 10 lights up as shown. Figures 6<i) to (β) show the state in which the train 32 is running. Figure 7 shows a case similar to Figure 6, but is an example when the following honor train passes through C station. At this time, the train 31 stopping at C station is displayed on the upper display as it progresses, and the train 32 passing through C station is displayed on the lower display. Users of C Station can then follow the progress of the display to see the progress of both trains, and how far the train that will stop at C Station has come. [Effects of the Invention] As explained above, the present invention provides separate display devices to display the approach of vehicles passing through the target station and display devices to display the approach of vehicles stopping at the target station, and to display the approach of vehicles passing through the target station. The display state of the train's display changes depending on whether the train is evacuating or not at the evacuation station, so even if there are many types of trains, the approach status of the train can be accurately displayed with a small number of indicators, and it is possible to provide better information to passengers. This has the effect of improving service.
