RU2155991C1 - Drive simulator for training drivers of armored caterpillar vehicle - Google Patents

Abstract

FIELD: simulators. SUBSTANCE: current information about activity of trained person is displayed on instructor's board and error recording unit, which also sends information to pulse counters. Said information represents duration of operation of system upon cleaning of viewing instruments, when vehicle follows route, time for gear shift when trainee performs task, time for using control levers, clutch and brake pedals, and so on. Outputs of counters send electric signals to information accumulation unit. When task end signal, which is sent from board to computing unit, is received, digital information about actions performed by trainee from accumulation unit and task duration time from instructor's board is sent to adder. Then, information about intensity of activity of trainee is sent to comparison unit. Source information , which is stored in setter is compared to current value and is displayed on indicator and control board as ratio of current intensity value to source intensity value. EFFECT: increased efficiency and quality of education. 1 dwg

Description

 The invention relates to simulators for training a driver of an armored tracked vehicle.

 The closest technical solution to the proposed invention is a movie simulator (see Product TTV-172. "Technical description and operating instructions." -M.: Military Publishing, 1977, pp. 10-12, 33-35), containing a movie projector, the outputs of which connected to the input of the topogram reading unit, the first input of the motion dynamics modeling unit and the first input of the instructor control panel, the second input of which is connected to the output of the motion modeling unit connected by the second input to the output of the topogram reading unit, real motion of the cabin, connected by the input to the second output of the block of simulation of movement dynamics, and the unit for recording errors.

 A disadvantage of the well-known cinema simulator is its ability to objectively evaluate the learner's activity and the level of his professional readiness at a given time only with the help of the error registration unit. In addition, as practice shows, during the training, the trainer instructor is not able to perceive, process and respond to the huge flow of information coming to him during the training of trainees on the trainers. In addition, the assessment of the correctness of the actions of the learner by the instructor is subjective, since it depends on the personal experience of the instructor and his intuition.

 This situation led to insufficient quality of training for students, which manifests itself in the fact that most students during the training period acquire a driving skill that is not sufficient for confident independent control of an armored tracked vehicle.

 The objective of the invention is to increase the effectiveness of the quality of training by creating a simulator that eliminates the shortcomings of the error registration unit in the well-known designs of simulators such as TTV, the objective control system of which would provide high accuracy in evaluating the student's activity.

 The problem is solved by introducing into the known device of the simulator TTV-172 a block of sensors for controlling the position of the controls, the input of which is connected to the first output of the instructor's control panel, and the first output has electrical connection with the third input of the motion dynamics modeling unit, the second input with the input of the registration unit errors, the third - sixth outputs are connected to the inputs of the pulse counters, the outputs of which are in electrical communication with the inputs of the information storage device connected to its output by the first input of the calculation a unit, an adder, a comparison unit, a setter for the student’s activity intensity and an adder output connected by inputs to the second output of the instructor’s control panel and the output of the computing unit, the second input of which is connected to the third output of the instructor’s control panel.

 The drawing shows a block diagram of the proposed simulator.

 The simulator contains a block 1 modeling the dynamics of movement; block 2 simulating a visual environment; block 3 reading topograms; block 4 sensors position control; instructor control panel 5; electric drive 6 of the swing of the cab and block 7 registration errors.

 To increase the accuracy of the student’s activity assessment, electric meters of 8-11 impulses of sensors for use by the controls were added; drive 12 information; computing unit 13; an adder 14; block 15 comparison; a setter 16 of the intensity of the student and indicator 17.

 The simulator works as follows.

 Before you start practicing the exercise, the instructor sets the value of the processing speed of the information corresponding to the reference value to the setter 16 of the activity of the learner. As an indicator characterizing the intensity of the student’s activity, for example, in cleaning viewing instruments, the operating time of the cleaning system can be taken. If there is no need for a device cleaning system, then the operating time of the cleaning system is zero. The fraction of the operating time of the cleaning agents in total time along the route characterizes the intensity of the student’s activity when the visibility conditions deteriorate through viewing devices.

 At the moment of "moving off" the machine from a place in the console 5 of the instructor begins the countdown of movement along the route (practicing exercises). In the process of the learner’s movement along the route, signals corresponding to the terrain profile come from block 1 of the dynamics simulation from the visual environment simulation block 2 through the topogram reading block 3, the speed from block 4. The converted signals from block 1 are sent to the visual environment simulation block 2, controlling the speed of presentation of information about the traffic situation, and into the electric drive 6 of the cab swing, controlling its vibrations.

 Current information about the student’s activities is displayed on the remote 5 of the instructor and block 7 registration errors. At the same time, information from block 4 goes to counters 8-11. This information is, for example, the operating time of the system for cleaning inspection devices when moving along a route, the time of gear changes during the exercise, the time of use of the control levers, clutch and brake pedals, etc. From the outputs of the counters 8-11 pulses, the electrical signals are fed to the drive 12 information. According to the signal that the exercise is completed, supplied from the instructor’s remote control 5, digital information about the time the learner takes the information storage device 12 and the exercise (movement along the route) exercise time from the instructor’s control panel 5 goes to the adder 14, from where the activity intensity information the student goes to block 15 comparison. The initial information stored in the host 16, is compared with the current and in the form of the ratio of the current value of the intensity of activity to the source is displayed on the indicator 17, and then on the remote control 5 of the instructor. As a result of this, the instructor concludes that it is necessary to intensify the student’s activities or, conversely, about which he issues relevant recommendations.

 The proposed simulator can find application in the modernization of existing simulators such as TTV in order to increase the effectiveness of training by improving the accuracy of the assessment of the student.
