Description

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to an automatic train-connecting system and method,

More particularly, the present invention relates to a system and method for automatically connecting a train, and more particularly, to a system and method for automatic connection of a train, The present invention relates to an automatic control system for a train connection and a method thereof.

When a driver connects a train by manually driving for the purpose of driving or rescue driving, the distance between two trains usually controls the speed of the train by relying on the radio content delivered by an observer outside the train. The content transmitted through the radio can be misdelivered by the person delivering the message and the person receiving the message. In some cases, the content is not transmitted by radio due to a communication error.

Especially, when the driver operates manually or during the connection operation, the damage and property damage are often caused by carelessness or mistake of the driver.

To solve these problems, a device has been developed to provide a distance between trains to a driver by mounting a distance sensor on the train and sensing the distance between the trains.

FIG. 1 is a view showing the configuration of the prior art Patent No. 10-2015-0009646 related thereto. Referring to FIG. 1, a conventional railway unit interconnection system 10 is composed of a connecting device 11, a sensor 12, and a control device 13.

The connecting device (11) serves to perform the connection between the train units (20). The connecting device 11 is formed in each of the train units 20 so that the two units are combined to complete the coupling between the train units 20. [ At this time, a sensor 12 for measuring the distance between the train units 20, more specifically, the distance between the connecting devices 11 performing the connection, is provided. For example, the distance between the connecting devices 11 It is possible to provide the image information to the driver of the train by photographing the distance.

That is, the signal of the sensor 12 is provided to the driver through the control device 13. The driver performs the connection operation while checking the distance and the coupling between the connection devices 11 in real time while viewing the image. Therefore, it is possible to perform the process of joining the train units more quickly and safely.

However, in such a conventional train-to-rail unit control system, even if the distance between the trains is informed to the driver, there is a risk of accident at any time when the driver does not concentrate on the distance information and inadvertently operates the train.

The mode verifying unit 320 is provided in the connection train 200 and the connected train 100, respectively.

The mode checking unit 320 checks whether the corresponding train is the connected train 200 or the connected train 100. [ The driver of the connected train 200 and the driver of the connected train 100 recognize whether their train is the connected train 200 or the connected train 100 and then select the mode of their own train. That is, when the driver of the connected train 200 recognizes that his own train is the connected train 200, the driver of the connected train 200 selects the connected train mode and the driver of the connected train 100 recognizes that his own train is the connected train 100 And select the connected train mode. The mode verifier 320 receives the connection train mode or the connected train mode through the mode selection of the driver.

The connection train 200 and the connected train 100 wait for the train in a braked state and then the mode check unit 320 determines whether the mode of the train is the connected train mode or the connected train mode , The train to which the connected train mode is selected is maintained in the braking state, and the train selected in the connected train mode is automatically advanced to the train.
