Description

The group of utility models relates to a set of technical means of a linear control level in railway transport and is intended for organizing automatic remote control of railway vehicles in the technological process of railway fuel depots, for example, monitoring the location of a warehouse (entry and exit) and monitoring the fueling process on an outfit position.

A number of systems are known for automated metering of fluid flow, including liquid fuel (for example, RU: 94038311, 51255, 2005110675, 63346; US 6823270; GB 2433999; WO 200506659 1; EP 1760439; automatic diesel metering system (http : //www.skat.kz/? r = 10 & id = 76 & podr = yes); control and measuring fuel system "Track" (http://skif-k700.oml.ru/product, 5594).

To accomplish tasks, any of these systems, in addition to data control, contains a unit (device) for their automated collection, processing, accounting and control, depending on the functional purpose of the system. For example, a device for the automated collection of information and control of energy-consuming systems (RU 18756, IPC7: F24D 19/10 - prototype) contains means for measuring the metering and impact on energy parameters of consumers, a data transmission system and a center for collecting and processing information (central computer). Means of accounting, measurement and control are equipped with physical interfaces, and the system for transmitting data from consumers is made in the form of a digital network linking the means of communication subscribed by consumers with the means of communication subscribed by the information center, while for signal transmission between means of measurement, accounting and control and means communication established by consumers, and communication means installed in the information center and the computer of the information center used physical interfaces.

A comprehensive automated system for accounting for the receipt, storage, supply and consumption of diesel fuel in railway transport (RU 79997, IPC: G01F 23/18 (2006.01), B67D 5/00 (2006.01), G06F 13/00 (2006.01) - prototype) contains the established at least on one locomotive, a motion and auto-driving parameters recorder connected to a diesel locomotive operation parameters recorder with a fuel-measuring system connected via a radio channel to a stationary information processing system including means for displaying and recording fuel consumption for heat ah. The system also contains diesel level, temperature and density sensors installed in the tanks of the stationary fuel storage base, through transmitting devices connected to the stationary information processing system.

The disadvantage of the system is a partial solution to the problem of controlling the fueling process, excluding the control of targeted refueling and unauthorized fuel dispensing, since fuel accounting is provided only according to the on-board diesel locomotive system.

Known technical means designed to control the technological process of fueling vehicles, including railroads, also do not provide control of a number of technological parameters and identification information.

So, the vehicle’s fuel tank (RU 53980, IPC: 60K15 / 03 (2006.01) - prototype) is a tank with a filler neck and is equipped with a control and measuring unit for identifying fuel, providing only express analysis and indication of the characteristic parameters of the fuel when it is supplied into the fuel tank.

Constructive solutions of well-known fuel-dispensing crane pistols, including interconnected functional technological units mounted on the body, are aimed at increasing productivity, reliability and ease of use and reducing labor costs. (http://www.altsi.ru/complete/trkkranakt.htm; RU 42077, IPC7: F02M 65/00, B67D 5/00 - prototype).

The objective of the claimed group of utility models is to increase the level of control over compliance with addressable refueling by guaranteeing compliance with the technological process of refueling railway vehicles, including monitoring the location of a railway vehicle or other refueling facilities and fuel tanks in the fuel storage area, monitoring the location of a railway vehicle in an outfit position, control of the physical supply of fuel, as well as registration of those at mode of fuel tanks equipped with on-board sensors.

The solution to this problem is achieved by the fact that:

1. The system of remote identification and control of the technological process of fueling railway vehicles, including as an identification device installed on at least one locomotive code on-board sensor and a stationary information processing system with the possibility of its subsequent visualization, in contrast to the prototype is additionally equipped a fueling facility identification system at an outfit position containing an identification tag located on the neck of the fuel tank a contactless tag interacting with the identification information reader on the fuel dispenser tap gun when the latter is installed on the neck of the fuel tank, in addition, the locomotive's on-board encoder sensor is connected to the automated diesel fuel metering system (SAU DT) through the automatic rolling stock identification system (SAI PS) ), while SAI PS, SAU DT and the identification system of the refueling object at the outfit position are connected to the device for automated collection, processing, identification and control of identity information.

The solution to this problem is also achieved by the fact that in the inventive system, the communication of the on-board encoder sensor with the antenna of the AIS PS and the connection of the non-contact identification mark of the neck of the fuel tank with the identification information reader on the crane gun is carried out using an electromagnetic signal in the microwave range or in another non-contact way , for example, using an infrared signal.

2. A device for the automated collection, processing, accounting and control of identification information of a system for remote identification and control of the technological process of fueling railway vehicles, containing blocks of functional subsystems located in the housing and connected by a data transmission network to systems and means for recording physical parameters of the technological process, as well as with hardware and software interfaces, in contrast to the prototype, the claimed device is connected to the automatic system identification of rolling stock (SAI PS), with a system for automated metering of diesel fuel (SAU DT), as well as a system for identifying a refueling object at an equipment position and / or through a VPN tunnel - with a central data network of Russian railways with the ability to collect, processing and subsequent visualization of data.

The solution to this problem is also achieved by the fact that:

- the claimed device is connected with an ACS DT and with a system for identifying a refueling object at an equipment position via a wireless connection and / or via a local area network of a fuel storage facility;

- the functional subsystems of the claimed device include, for example, the integration subsystem, the subsystem for the formation of operational reporting, the subsystem for video monitoring of the technological process and the subsystem for the formation of the fuel balance and others.

3. The neck of the fuel tank, including the interface with the identification device, in contrast to the prototype, the identification device is made in the form of a contactless identification mark, and the interface contains a nozzle for positioning the identification information reader on the tap-gun of the fuel dispenser when it is installed on the neck of the fuel tank .

The solution to this problem is also achieved by the fact that the contactless identification tag is made in the form of a passive RF tag integrated in a dielectric housing, made, for example, in the form of a ring mounted on the neck of the fuel tank.

In the case when the fuel storage is not equipped with a fueling object identification system at the outfit position, the interface of the fuel tank neck is used without a fitting.

4. A fuel dispensing crane gun containing functional-technological units and a quick-disconnect device for connecting the crane gun to the neck of the fuel tank, in contrast to the prototype crane gun, additionally contains an identification information reader mounted on the outer surface of the quick disconnect device housing and connected to a controller for transmitting identification data to an automated diesel fuel metering system (ACS DT) and to an automatic annogo collection, processing, recording and control of identity.

The solution to this problem is also achieved by the fact that:

- the identification information reader is made in the form of an active antenna built into a ring-shaped dielectric housing and is connected to the self-propelled guns via wireless connection and / or via the local area network of the fuel storage;

- the device of quick-disconnect connection of the crane-gun with the neck of the fuel tank is a device of the type "camlock".

In the case when the neck of the fuel tank is temporarily not equipped with a contactless identification mark, a nozzle is installed on the faucet-gun using a quick-disconnect connection, which performs the function of a filler pipe.

The system contains a coded on-board sensor 1 with coded identification information installed on at least one diesel locomotive and connected to the automatic rolling stock identification system (SAI PS) 2 through an active antenna of a stationary reading point 3 installed at the entrance / exit from the fuel storage area , device 4 for automated collection, processing, accounting and control of identification information, connected via dial-up connections, built on the principles of Ethernet technology, wirelessly connecting and / or via a local area network of the fuel storage 5 with the AIS PS, with the automated diesel fuel metering system (SAU DT) bis refueling object identification system at outfit position 7, which includes a contactless identification mark 8 mounted on the neck of the fuel tank and interacting with a device 9 for reading identification information on a fuel dispenser valve spray gun when it is installed on the neck of a fuel tank. The device 4 contains blocks of functional subsystems located in the housing, for example, an integration subsystem 4.1 block, an operational reporting subsystem block 4.2, a process control video subsystem block 4.3, a fuel balance formation subsystem block 4.4, and others.

The interface node of the neck of the fuel tank (figure 3) contains an adapter 11 that is installed using a threaded connection on the neck of the fuel tank (not shown). A housing with an identification contactless mark 8 is mounted on the adapter, made, for example, in the form of a ring of dielectric material. A passive RF tag can be used as an identifying contactless tag. A filter 12 for coarse fuel cleaning and a fitting 13 for accurately positioning the device 9 relative to the contactless identification mark 8 when installing a nozzle on the neck of the fuel tank by fixing it to the nozzle 13 using the quick disconnect assembly 14 are installed on the inner surface of the adapter using a threaded connection. The device 9 is placed in a housing made in the form of a ring of dielectric material and mounted on the outer surface of the node 14, and connected to the controller 10 using the information and power cable 15. As the device 9, for example, an active antenna is used, and as a quick disconnect node connections - a device of the type "kamlok". In addition, the crane gun is equipped with a removable spout (not shown), fixed with a node 14 and acting as a filler pipe if the neck of the fuel tank is not equipped with an interface unit for the neck of the fuel tank with a contactless identification mark fixed to it.

The system is as follows.

The location of the railway vehicle in the fuel storage area is monitored using the on-board sensor 1. Identification is carried out by the non-contact method when the railway vehicle follows the active antenna of the stationary reading point 3 installed in the neck of the fuel storage path, for example, an active AIS antenna PS. The date and time of the investigation, the code number of the on-board sensor, the registration number of the railway vehicle and the direction of the investigation are recorded. Identification information is transmitted to the ACS DT 6 and is used to implement targeted fuel dispensing. The control of the refueling process of a railway vehicle at the outfit position is carried out using the refueling facility identification system 7 at the outfit position through the connection of the contactless identification tag 8 with the identification information reading device 9 at the moment of fixing the fuel dispenser on the neck of the fuel tank of the tap gun. By means of the controller 10, associated with the device 9, the date and time of the passage of the identification signal (installation of the spray gun), the number of the contactless identification mark, for example, a passive radio frequency identification mark, and also the registration number of the railway vehicle are recorded. The identification information on the wireless connection and / or the local area network of the fuel storage 5 is transmitted to the self-propelled guns, where it is recorded and used as an information and authorization signal informing the operator about the occupancy of the equipment position by a specific railway vehicle and allowing physical release of fuel from the fuel dispenser fixed for this position. In the process of physical dispensing of fuel from the dispenser, constant communication is maintained with the identification information reader 9 (active antenna). Interruption of communication blocks the release of fuel, including in the event of an abnormal removal of the crane gun from the tank during the fueling process.

The contactless identification tag 8 encodes information that uniquely identifies the vehicle. The label works on the principle of write once, accordingly, unauthorized change of information in the memory of the label is impossible neither technologically nor programmatically. The coding of marks is carried out during their manufacture on the basis of data from an automated database of traction rolling stock. The transfer of identification information to the device 4 for the automatic collection, processing, accounting and control of identification information occurs when the contactless identification tag 8 and the device 9 read the identification information of the gun pistol to a distance determined by the technical parameters of the signal power between them, when the fuel dispenser is fixed on the neck of the fuel tank. In practice, this distance does not exceed 5 cm. Thus, targeted fuel dispensing is implemented, which eliminates unauthorized fuel dispensing for vehicles that have not been identified upon entering the fuel depot and addressing control of fueling or prohibiting and limiting fuel dispensing for specific moving units.

This process is carried out using a number of subsystems of device 4, in which the parameters of technological operations for equipping diesel locomotives at refueling positions (SAI PS reader, equipment identification card, data on refueling from a column and others), parameters of the fuel balance of the fuel depot, and parameters of the locomotive’s work (RPRT) are recorded ) The data obtained is a source for the refueling registration log in the amount of the following data: capacity identifier, column identifier, locomotive identifier, outfitter identifier, fuel mass, date and time of refueling. In addition, through a VPN tunnel or other secure channel, device 4 is connected to a central data network of Russian railways with the ability to collect, process and then visualize data and transfer it to the corporate level of the Unified Automated Diesel Fuel Accounting System (EACU DT). The constructive solution of the interface unit of the neck of the fuel tank with a passive identification mark allows the unification of the filler neck of the fuel tanks for all series of diesel locomotives for their automated identification, while the assembly of the interface is performed without changing the design of the fixed parts of the diesel locomotive and without welding. To install the interface, a standard threaded hole of the fuel tank is used, into which the adapter 11 is installed. In the case when the fuel storage is temporarily not equipped with a fueling object identification system at the outfit position, that is, the gun crane is not equipped with an identification information reader, fueling is carried out without the fitting 13 of the interface node of the fuel neck of the tank. On the contrary, when the neck of the fuel tank is not equipped with a junction unit for the neck of the fuel tank with a contactless identification mark fixed to it, a detachable nozzle that acts as a filler pipe is mounted on the fuel dispenser crane and fixed with a quick-disconnect assembly. This opportunity allows you to equip a locomotive on any refueling column used in the system of Russian railways, without affecting the process of widespread implementation of the claimed system of remote identification and control of the technological process of fueling railway vehicles on Russian railways.

Implementation of the claimed combination of features of a group of utility models, united by a common creative idea, will allow us to solve the problem of increasing the level of control of the technological process of refueling railway vehicles by observing targeted refueling, that is, monitoring the location of a railway vehicle or other refueling facilities and fuel tanks in the fuel storage area, control of the location of the railway vehicle in the outfit position, as well as physical control personal fuel dispensing. In addition, it will allow registration of fuel tanks located in the warehouse equipped with on-board sensors.
