Intelligent train coupler system

Abstract

The invention relates to an intelligent train coupler system. The intelligent train coupler system is a connecting device between trains, and the system is used to replace a traditional tight-lock coupler and used for achieving automatic train shunting operation. The system comprises an automatic train coupler body, a physical range finder, a distance / train speed analyzer, a drive operation converter, sensors and the like, wherein the train coupler body contains multiple sensors. By the intelligent train coupler system, operation transformation of a rail transit combination-separation combinedtransportation mode can be well achieved, labor burden and mental pressure of railway staff can be lowered favorably, shunting operation quality and efficiency are increased, the mechanism constraintof the highest design capacity of railway transportation can be broken through hopefully, huge productivity potential can be exploited, and the railway transportation is allowed to well satisfy the needs of social and economic development.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of train equipment in rail transit, and in particular relates to a coupler device for connecting trains of multiple trains. Background technique [0002] Rail transit is a transportation system with high energy efficiency, high concentration, and high capacity. It is a land transportation mode with high speed, high efficiency, large capacity, energy saving and low carbon. These advantages are beyond the reach of other land transportation. But, its shortcoming is equally obvious, that is, compared with other land transportation, especially automobile transportation, the maneuverability of rail traffic train operation is very poor. [0003] How to make better use of the advantages of large-capacity and low-carbon transportation of rail transit, while overcoming its shortcomings of poor mobility, we must find a new operating mode, which is the field of rail transportation equipment and transportation technology, especial...

Problems solved by technology

However, the frequent combination and separation operations between trains brought about by the combination and separation method will increase the burden on the train couplers and increase the labor intensity of station and train personnel. Therefore, it is necessary to solve the problem of non-manual operation of train combination and separation.

[0005] Although the traditional couplers used by EMUs already belong to the category of close-connected automatic couplers, the automatic couplers can complete the coupler action according to the automatic program, and complete the connection or decoupling of trains, but the connection or decoupling between trains is not specific The driving operation is still operated by manual operation. In the process of coupling or decoupling, whether it is the driver, the maintenance staff or the station staff, they have to be highly concentrated, properly cooperate with the operation, prevent collisions, and prevent damage to the coupler, so the ideological pressure In addition, it is necessary to ensure the firmness and reliability of the coupler connection, so as to prevent the train from decoupling during operation and cause serious dumping accidents.

[0006] China's invention patent application 201510084463.5 "Train Connecting Device for Combined and Separated High-speed Railways" proposes an improved coupler device for combined and separated combined transport that meets the needs of combined and separated transport, but the train connecting device mainly highlights the interlocking function when "combined or separated" , basically still based on manual connecting operation, which will inevitably increase the working frequency and work pressure of train or station personnel, which is not conducive to the promotion and development of combined train transportation technology
