Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a drive system for an on-vehicle device, and more particularly to a drive system for a vehicle-mounted device in a parked vehicle.

[Conventional technology]

Conventional trains are equipped with storage batteries for driving on-board devices when the train is in detention. The storage battery method, as shown in FIG. 1, is a method in which the sequence control device 3 is operated by using the electric power of the storage battery 1 mounted on the vehicle to sequentially start the vehicle-mounted devices such as the pantograph 4.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

The conventional method described above is based on the assumption that the on-vehicle equipment is handled by the crew, and the opening and closing of the power switch 2 in the detained vehicle and the subsequent activation of the sequence control device 3 are performed by the crew at the vehicle detention site. It has become essential to attend the meeting. Therefore,
It is impossible to start up the pantograph prior to vehicle operation, test the operation of on-board equipment, and unattended unmanned operation of vehicles from the many branched parking routes to the convergence point. Another problem was that regular inspection and charging of the storage batteries required human labor.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems and provide an on-vehicle device drive system for a parked vehicle that does not require an on-board storage battery and is suitable for unmanned maintenance work and garage removal work prior to vehicle operation. .

[Means for solving problems]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a track on which a vehicle is parked, which includes a coupler, an on-vehicle device driven by an electric signal, and an on-vehicle device control means for controlling the operation of the on-vehicle device. At the end of
A detention vehicle coupling device equipped with a power line connector and a signal line connector is installed, a ground power source and a command device are connected to each of the above connectors via cables, and each of the above connectors and a command device are connected to each of the above vehicles. A connector for connecting a power line and a signal line on the vehicle side forming a pair, a signal determining means connected to each of these lines and supplying a command signal from the command device to the on-vehicle device control means, the on-vehicle device and the on-vehicle device control means. is equipped with a means for supplying power from the power line, and while the vehicle is connected to the detention vehicle coupling device via the coupler, each of the connectors is connected and the device receives commands from the command device. The vehicle is characterized by being able to drive the on-vehicle device accordingly.

[Effect]

According to the present invention, the detention vehicle coupling device and the vehicle-side coupler are provided with power line and signal line connectors, respectively, and when the vehicle is coupled to the coupling device, the on-vehicle device control means on the vehicle is connected to the ground side power source. Electric power is supplied from the ground, and operation instructions can be given using a command device on the ground. Therefore, by giving control commands while specifying the vehicle at a command center remote from the detention vehicle, the on-vehicle device mounted on the detention vehicle can be remotely operated.
Due to the sequence control function provided by the control means of the on-vehicle device, operations such as starting up, inspecting, and taking out the parked vehicle from the garage can be performed unattended.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to Examples. FIG. 2 is an embodiment of the present invention. 6 is
It is a connecting device fixed on the ground. This coupling device is composed of a coupler 61 and a cable connector 62. Since the cable connector 62 is integrated with the coupler 61, when both the couplers on the ground and on the vehicle are coupled, both the cable connectors on the ground and on the vehicle are also coupled at the same time. 8 is a central device that serves as a command center. The central device includes a power source 81 and a processing device 82.
It consists of A cable 1 is connected to the central device. The cable is composed of a power line 11 and a signal line 12. The cable is routed onto the vehicle via a cable connector. 4 is an in-vehicle device, for example, a pantograph. 3 is a sequence controller for starting or stopping the on-vehicle device; 9 is a switch for switching between overhead line power and power from the power line; and 5 is a discriminator.
The discrimination device 5 is mounted on each vehicle, receives a signal from a signal line, and discriminates whether the on-vehicle device of the vehicle is activated or stopped. This signal is sent to the signal line 12 by the processing device 82 and is e.g.
Two pieces of information are included: a vehicle identification code and a command code such as start or stop. When the discriminator 5 receives a signal to start the on-vehicle device 4, it first switches the switch 9 to the power line side and supplies power from the power line to the sequence controller 3 and the on-vehicle device 4. While the vehicle is connected to the coupling device 61, the discriminating device 5 and the switch 9 are always connected to the power line and ready for operation. Can be realized arbitrarily. Following the switching of the switch, when the discriminating device 5 receives an answer back signal from the sequence controller 3 indicating completion of startup, the discriminating device 5 switches the switch 9 to the overhead line power side, and the sequence controller 3 and on-vehicle device 4 It will operate using electricity from the overhead lines. The answer back signal from the sequence controller 3 is transmitted from the discrimination device 5 to the processing device 82 via a signal line and displayed.

When the discriminator 5 receives an instruction signal to stop the function of the on-vehicle device from the processing device 82, the discriminator issues an instruction to the sequence controller 3 to stop the on-vehicle device, and in response to the answer back signal, performs the same process as above. Responds to the device. Therefore, in this embodiment, the operator at the command center can operate the on-vehicle device of a designated vehicle by simply inputting the vehicle identification code and the operation command (start or stop discrimination code) for the on-vehicle device into the central device 82. Operation can be controlled remotely.

〔Effect of the invention〕

According to the present invention, power is supplied to the detained vehicle from a power source on the ground side, the on-vehicle device is driven by a command from a command center, and the on-vehicle device and the on-vehicle device are controlled by an answer/back signal from the vehicle side. The operation of the means (sequence controller) can be confirmed.
Therefore, by adding more advanced functions to the sequence controller in addition to starting and stopping as shown in the example, it is possible to perform maintenance tests on parked vehicles, take them out of garages, etc. by remote control without the presence of crew members. becomes possible.
