When operating a high-speed train, it is not necessary to repair the position of the track circuit or the level crossing controller as a measure for speeding up the level crossing to secure the warning time of the level crossing. It is possible to flexibly cope with the reverse direction operation in the double track section without adding equipment. Except for the shortcomings of the conventional method of optimizing the warning time of railroad crossings, where the warning time varies depending on the speed of the train and the operating status of the train, it is possible to equalize the warning time with high accuracy,
In terms of safety, the alarm time does not become shorter than the predetermined value. For all trains including high-speed trains, when an abnormality is detected at the railroad crossing, it is possible to stop before the railroad crossing, and it is possible to minimize the warning time for the railroad crossing under the conditions. It is possible to prevent unauthorized operation of a railroad crossing due to rust or dirt on the rail tread, which cannot be avoided by the current train detection method for railroad crossing control. These effects will greatly contribute to the leveling control method for responding flexibly and safely to changes in train operating conditions, and to the optimization of leveling alarm time, which is now a socially important issue. it can.

T) is generated, the train is controlled to travel according to the travel control pattern (PT), and the position (Pl) of the level crossing (LC) is stored. When the train (TR) approaches the level crossing (LC), the train (TR) TR) traveling position (Pt) and the memorized crossing position (Pt)
l) generates a level crossing stop travel control pattern (PTL) that stops the train (TR) immediately before the level crossing (LC), and transmits a level crossing control command (C) via the wireless device (Ra, Rb), Upon receiving the response signal (CA) and the normal crossing signal (LA) from the crossing control command (LCD) from the crossing control device (LCD), the crossing stop traveling control pattern (PTL) is erased and the crossing control device (LCD) ) Receives the level crossing control command (C) via the wireless device (Ra, Rb), controls the level crossing (LC), and transmits a response signal (CA) and a normal level crossing signal (LA). Crossing control device.

2. The operation control device (TCD) obtains in advance the time (T1) at which the train (TR) reaches the railroad crossing (LC) from the traveling control pattern (PT) of the train (TR), and then the railroad crossing (LC). The level crossing control command (C) is set so that the level crossing warning time, which is the time from the start of the alarm to the arrival of the train (TR) at the level crossing (LC), becomes a constant value regardless of the speed and running of the train (TR). Output,
The train (TR) travel control pattern (P
The crossing control device according to claim 1, wherein only a change to a travel control pattern (PT) that does not become shorter than a predetermined alarm time is allowed when T) is changed.

3. The operation control device (TCD) calculates a value obtained by subtracting the time required for level crossing control from the arrival time until the train (TR) contacts the level crossing stop traveling control pattern (PTL), and also calculates the value. And the train (TR) stops at the railroad crossing control pattern (PT
L) Level crossing Stop traveling control pattern (PTL)
The railroad crossing control device according to claim 1.
