Description
The present invention is a lateral displacement measurement system of railway rails using electromagnetic induction, more specifically, by using a lateral displacement measurement sensor that receives a current from the time-varying current supply device, the induced voltage changes according to the electromagnetic lateral displacement of the railway rail. The present invention relates to a system for measuring the lateral displacement of a railway rail, a method thereof, and a sensor.
For stable operation of rail cars, continuous abnormal management of rails and derailment prevention are necessary. Abnormalities that may occur due to contact between the wheels and the rails during the operation of a railway vehicle include wear, cracks, corrosion, warpage, and poor seams. In the past, all of these abnormalities were inspected by manpower, but the inspector had a high risk of accidents and the inspection time was long. In addition, the cost of labor for inspection personnel, etc. was high.
In addition, in the curve section of the railway vehicle, the vehicle receives a centrifugal force in the opposite direction of rotation and is pushed outward.When a straight vehicle runs on the curved rail, the deviation of the relative rails at the front and rear of the train is changed. Will be created. Therefore, in order to prevent such a deviation phenomenon, it is necessary to measure the relative displacement of the railroad car and the rail in real time while driving the vehicle and reflect it in the steering.
For this purpose, sensors are used to measure the displacement of wheels and rails of railway vehicles. Typical ones are optical sensors and wave sensors. However, the optical sensor or the wave sensor is precise and reliable, but the cost is high, and if the pollutant is present on the rail, it is directly affected, and the optical axis is shaken by the vibration while driving. On the other hand, the capacitive sensor cannot be applied because of the short measuring distance.
Many eddy current sensors have been studied as non-contact sensors that measure rails. Oukhellow et al. Conducted a study of measuring rail cracks with multiple eddy current sensors at a distance of 20 mm from the rail. Mizuno et al. Detected the rail clearance with an eddy current sensor with a resonant circuit, and Aknin et al. Studied the lateral displacement of a rail with an eddy current sensor with two secondary coils.
However, the eddy current sensor is inconvenient to use because it is not affected by contaminants but is vulnerable to noise, so the measurement distance is short, and the signal detected by the sensor has to go through complicated signal processing.
The present invention was conceived by recognizing the above problems and situations, and the problem to be solved by the present invention is an abnormality caused by the contact between the wheel and the rail during the operation of the railway vehicle using the electromagnetic induction principle for measuring the lateral displacement of the railway rail. It measures the relative displacement of railroad cars and rails in real time while driving the vehicle and reflects them in the steering to reduce costs and improve stability.

In addition, the calculation device calculates the lateral displacement increases when the induced voltage value is greater than the reference voltage value when the rail displacement is 0, and the lateral displacement decreases when the induced voltage value is smaller than the reference voltage value. It is characterized by performing the calculation.

In order to achieve the object of the present invention as described above, the lateral displacement measuring sensor for measuring the lateral displacement of a railway rail from the change of induced voltage according to electromagnetic induction according to the present invention forms a time-varying magnetic field by applying a time-varying current regardless of the displacement of the rail.

In this case, the method may further include displaying the lateral displacement calculated in the step (c).
As described above, the present invention can be reliably measured even when contaminants are present on the rail due to snowfall, rain, and other causes without being affected by the weather by using an electromagnetic induction method, and are free from vibration during driving, and on the rail. Non-contact measurement is possible at a distance from the rail to prevent damage caused by foreign objects.
In addition, the relative displacement of railroad cars and rails can be measured in real time while driving the railroad cars, and reflected in steering, resulting in cost savings and improved safety.

3 is a simplified circuit diagram of a lateral displacement measuring sensor of a rail using electromagnetic induction according to the present invention. Hereinafter, as shown in FIG. 3, a similar magnetic circuit model including two coils, a rail, and a
The basic circuit design is that the sensor is composed of two coils and a core (3), as shown in Figure 1, the sensor is installed on the rail, when a time-varying current is applied to the primary coil generates a time-varying magnetic field, but the primary coil is the displacement of the rail Although the magnitude of the voltage induced in the secondary coil by the time-varying magnetic field is affected by the displacement of the rail, the displacement can be estimated by measuring the peak value of the voltage induced in the secondary coil. Based on the basic circuit design concept, modeling and induction voltage are analyzed.
When the coil is wound N turns around the
Expression (1)
If Stoke's law is applied to both sides of equation (1), the electromotive force generated by the time-varying current flowing on the primary side is summarized as in equation (2).
....... Formula (2)
The current induced on the secondary side when the time-varying magnetic flux Φ flows is in accordance with Faraday's law. By applying Stokes's law to Faraday's law, the voltage induced in a coil wound N 2 turns is summarized as follows.

Therefore, assuming that there is no leakage magnetic flux, when the current of V 1 = Vcos (2πft) is applied to the primary coil, the voltage induced on the secondary side becomes as shown in Equation (3) below.

FIG. 5 shows the output of the secondary coil when the
Hereinafter, a system including a sensor having the above effect will be described.
The lateral displacement sensor should be supplied with time-varying current as much as it uses the principle of electromagnetic induction. This is because electromagnetic induction occurs as the current changes over time. Therefore, the time-varying current supply device supplies the time-varying current to the lateral displacement sensor. As a time-varying current supply device, a device for supplying an AC current such as an AC power supply is mainly used.
The lateral displacement measuring sensor receives a current from the time varying current supply device and measures that an induced voltage is changed according to electromagnetic induction according to a lateral displacement of a railway rail, and the principle and effect thereof have been described above.
Since the value of the voltage measured by the lateral displacement sensor may be small, it may be detected by amplifying the amplifier separately.
At this time, if the detected value is increased by more than the reference value when the lateral displacement is 0, the lateral displacement is increased, and when the decrease is compared with the reference value, the lateral displacement is reduced, and the degree is calculated. This is handled by the computing device.
It is possible to add a display device separately in order for a user to grasp the result calculated by the computing device, and the user can visually check the change of the lateral displacement through the display device.
