Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of urban rail construction, in particular to an unmanned electric rail transit system for individual passengers. Background Art

[0002] Excessive urbanization has brought traffic pressure. The entire city is designed and built around bus tracks. Overpasses and subways have only partially alleviated this pressure, but have not fundamentally changed the problem. Although our buses have touched every corner of the city and are treated preferentially at every level, stopping at stations, stopping at traffic lights, stopping in traffic jams, etc. are exhausting everyone's patience. We have no right to make the bus serve only ourselves. A large part of our time is spent waiting for others to get on and off the bus and waiting for traffic lights.

[0003] Taking the bus not only costs time, but also our privacy. It is impossible to block other people's gazes on the bus. In order to have a private space of their own, more and more people hide in their family cars, which increases the traffic pressure. In order to solve the above technical problems, we have designed an unmanned electric rail transit system that meets the needs of individual passengers. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an unmanned electric rail transit system that meets the needs of individual passengers, which has the advantages of reducing carbon emissions, green travel, convenient construction, reducing traffic pressure, high safety performance, high intelligence, and the whole system can operate in a coordinated manner, creating a safe personal space, protecting personal privacy, and being able to resist the evacuation of people under urban rainstorms and floods. It solves the problems of low intelligence of existing urban rail transit, stopping at traffic lights, stopping at traffic jams, etc., low operating efficiency, poor concealment, low safety, inability to resist urban rainstorms and floods, and being unfavorable for the evacuation of people.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: an unmanned electric rail transit system that meets the needs of individual passengers, comprising a control system and a rail corridor installed on the rail, the control system being electrically connected to a remote control window opening unit, the remote control window opening unit being electrically connected to a wind control device and a temperature control device respectively, the control system being electrically connected to an electric rail unit, the electric rail unit being electrically connected to an electric power system, the input end of the electric power system being electrically connected to a solar panel, the output end of the control system being electrically connected to a snow removal device, the control system being electrically connected to a ranging emergency and other safety measures unit, an encoder and a transponder respectively, the transponder and the encoder being electrically connected to a running tool, the input end of the running tool being electrically connected to a backup battery, and the backup battery being electrically connected to the electric power system.

[0006] Preferably, the snow removal equipment and solar panels are fixedly installed on the outside of the track corridor, the output end of the solar panel is electrically connected to auxiliary electrical equipment such as lighting, the operating tool is electrically connected to the power track unit, the power system and the ranging emergency and other safety measures units respectively, and a platform is installed on one side of the operating tool.

[0007] Preferably, a fully enclosed track is used, the track is supported by a steel structure, the entire passage is enclosed by a transparent plastic shed, and automatically adjustable windows are left on both sides.

[0008] Preferably, the carrying vehicle adopts an independent seat, can run on tracks or without tracks, and has corresponding security facilities. A small storage table is provided in front of the seat, and a display screen is installed above the storage table. In addition to being used for payment and platform selection, other services can also be provided for passengers. The payment system can be through swiping cards and virtual accounts. In the case of family formation, either AA system or one person can choose to pay. The top and side space of the plastic greenhouse can be fully utilized to set up solar panels to ensure that the solar panels and the entire track system work normally in winter. It is equipped with snow removal function.

[0009] Preferably, the above-mentioned overhead construction above the non-motorized vehicle lane can be laid in the most economical and convenient way without changing the original traffic layout of the city.

[0010] Preferably, the track is set up in two parallel lanes on the main line, and the two lanes can adopt different speeds, one slow lane at 20-25 kilometers per hour, and the other fast lane at 25-35 kilometers per hour. The slow lane is on the outside and can be changed to the exit ramp, and the fast lane is on the inside. Before exiting the station or when changing direction, the track is changed to the slow lane first. The difference is that passengers turning right and preparing to arrive at the station share a slow track, and when turning left, a deceleration track is added on the left side, and the left turn and track merging are completed after deceleration.

[0011] Preferably, tracks in different directions are built on both sides of the main road at the same time, and the branch line is only built on one side. Tracks in different directions are laid. In order to save construction costs and increase operating volume, double-deck tracks can be built. In large cities, the double layers can be in the same direction, and in medium-sized cities, the double layers can be in opposite directions. One layer guarantees one direction, and a single layer can be laid in small cities.

[0012] Preferably, the means of transportation can choose to travel vertically between two tracks with a large drop, and the electric chair can complete track switching by lifting and lowering a vertical shaft, which is more suitable for travel in mountain cities and an alternative solution when intersecting with an elevated bridge.

[0013] Preferably, the DC power supply may also be equipped with batteries. When a section of the track loses its power supply capacity, the battery will supply power to ensure smooth operation. The power system is set up to select segmented power supply. According to the length of the track, it can be decomposed into N power supply areas, and each power supply area has an AC / DC substation system.

[0014] Preferably, the platform is also fully enclosed, leaving only two entrances and exits. The platform is also built overhead, and a platform is built near an intersection or above an intersection. Entry ramps and exit ramps are set on both sides of the platform, and the operating tools are parked between the two.

[0028] See also Figure 1-Figure 8 , an unmanned electric rail transit system that meets the needs of individual passengers, including a control system and a rail corridor installed on the track, the control system is electrically connected to a remote control window opening unit, the remote control window opening unit is electrically connected to a wind control device and a temperature control device, the control system is electrically connected to an electric rail unit, the electric rail unit is electrically connected to an electric power system, the input end of the electric power system is electrically connected to a solar panel, the output end of the control system is electrically connected to a snow removal device, the control system is electrically connected to a ranging emergency and other safety measures unit, an encoder and a transponder, the transponder and the encoder are electrically connected to a running tool, the input end of the running tool is electrically connected to a backup battery, and the backup battery is electrically connected to the electric power system.

[0029] Snow removal equipment and solar panels are fixedly installed on the outside of the track corridor. The output end of the solar panel is electrically connected to auxiliary electrical equipment such as lighting. The operating tools are electrically connected to the power track unit, power system, and safety measures units such as ranging emergency. A platform is installed on one side of the operating tool.

[0030] It uses a fully enclosed track supported by a steel structure. The entire passage is enclosed by a transparent plastic shed with automatically adjustable windows on both sides. The plastic shed can ensure all-weather operation while providing sunlight for the lower-level traffic. The automatically adjustable windows can circulate air and regulate the temperature. The closure of the windows can be scientifically managed. Ventilation can be opened when the temperature and humidity are suitable, and closed when the temperature is hot and a cold wave is coming. It can also be opened at different angles according to the wind speed.

[0031] The vehicle uses independent seats and can run on tracks or without tracks, as well as corresponding security facilities. A small storage table is installed in front of the seat and a display screen is installed above the storage table. In addition to paying for platform selection, it can also provide other services for passengers. The payment system can be paid by swiping cards and virtual accounts. The choice is a dedicated bus personal account. When a family is in a group, you can choose the AA system or one person pays. The electric seat can be designed with wheels or other advanced methods. The speed of the electric seat cannot be changed freely, and there is a control system to adjust it throughout the process. In addition, this set of electric seats can be freely combined (for example, more than two seats with the same destination can be connected together), and according to the arrival platform grouping, each passenger must first enter the address he or she wants to go to when entering the vehicle (this address is the agreed platform name). After entering the vehicle, the passenger must first confirm the platform he or she wants to go to (the confirmation button is set because the platform cannot be changed midway, to prevent passengers from choosing the wrong platform and making changes midway). The vehicle will go directly to the platform you want to go to according to the instructions, and will automatically change tracks to the platform you want to go to on the way, and then prompt you to arrive at the station. The top and side space of the plastic greenhouse can be fully utilized to set up solar panels. The electricity generated can provide internal lighting and air conditioning. In order to ensure the normal operation of the solar panels and the entire track system in winter, it is equipped with a snow removal function. You can choose to remove snow with a mechanical arm or melt snow with hot air.

[0032] In order to achieve safety and accessibility, the choice of overhead construction above the non-motorized vehicle lane is made. This can be laid in the most economical and convenient way without changing the original traffic layout of the city. Such a spatial layout can fully meet the operation of pedestrians and non-motorized vehicles on the lower level. After being elevated, it can achieve barrier-free operation, which greatly improves the operation speed. The steel structure it adopts can be fully realized on a large scale and modularized combination. It is not only low in cost, but also easy and quick to install.

[0033] The tracks are laid in parallel on the main line in two (or even multiple, which means laying multiple parallel tracks in the same closed space). The two tracks can use different speeds, one slow at 20 to 25 kilometers per hour, and the other fast at 25 to 35 kilometers per hour (the final speed can be determined by testing). The slow track is on the outside and can be changed to the exit ramp. The fast track is on the inside. Before exiting the station or when changing direction, it first changes to the slow track. The difference is that passengers turning right and preparing to arrive at the station share a slow track, and when turning left, a deceleration track is added on the left side. After deceleration, the left turn is completed and the track is merged. In order to cope with detours in emergencies, the track change between the fast lane and the slow lane is reversible. When choosing to travel without tracks, the control system can change direction according to the situation.

[0034] On both sides of the main road, tracks in different directions are erected simultaneously. The branch main lines are only erected on one side, with tracks in different directions laid. To save construction costs and increase the traffic volume, double-deck tracks can be erected. In large cities, the two decks can be in the same direction; in medium-sized cities, the two decks can be in opposite directions, with one deck ensuring one direction. In small cities, single-layer tracks can be laid. The problem with double-deck tracks lies in the diversion at intersections. At this time, cross-traffic cannot be used, and circular and opposite directions should be chosen. Especially when passing through the viaduct at intersections, since the height of the viaduct has been preset, the tracks can only follow the design in a limited space when passing through the viaduct. We can reduce the required height of the tracks by changing the double-deck into single-layer multi-tracks, that is, slowly lower the upper-layer tracks to the same height as the lower-layer tracks, turning the two tracks into four tracks.

[0035] Because the traffic tools are small and independent, they can complete complex traffic modes that other traffic systems cannot. The traffic tools can choose vertical passage between two tracks with a large drop. The electric chair can complete track switching by means of lifting through a vertical shaft, which is more suitable for the traffic in mountain cities and is an alternative plan when intersecting with viaducts.

[0036] Choose direct current power supply, which can directly meet the operation of the electric chair, saving the manufacturing cost of the electric chair. Batteries can also be equipped. When a certain section of the electric rail loses its power supply capacity, the battery supplies power to ensure smooth operation. The power system is set to supply power in sections. According to the length of the track, it can be decomposed into N power supply areas. Each power supply area has an AC-DC power conversion system. The load of the AC-DC power conversion system in each power supply area includes the power supply for the tracks and auxiliary facilities within the area, as well as the power supply capacity that can bear the power supply operation of the adjacent area when a power failure occurs in the adjacent power supply area.

[0037] The construction of the platform is also fully enclosed, with only two entrances and exits, so that comprehensive security can be achieved. The construction of the platform also needs to be elevated. Choose to build a platform near or above the intersection. Set the inbound approach and outbound approach on both sides of the platform, and park the operation tools between the two. (In most cases, an "O"-shaped integrated platform will be formed at the intersection, and auxiliary tracks are laid between the two platforms for adjusting the electric seats).

[0038] The control system must manage the operation of each electric seat. In addition to installing positioners on the seats, distance meters for detecting the front and rear distances must also be installed to keep the two seats at a safe distance at all times. In this way, once a seat in front fails, the seat behind will automatically slow down and stop running, and the signal will be transmitted to the last car to avoid a collision. When a similar failure occurs, in addition to quickly removing the faulty seat, the control system can also quickly change tracks and direct traffic to another track. This requires that when laying the track, in addition to leaving normal track changes, a lot of spare reverse track changes must be reserved, and traffic can be changed from slow tracks to fast tracks. In extreme cases where the road ahead is impassable, the control system can make adjustments, either normal track changes or reverse selections. If you choose to travel without tracks, this change of direction will be simpler and more convenient.

[0039] Another important task of the control system is to allow the electric chairs waiting to enter the track to safely queue up and enter the track without collision when other electric chairs are running normally. The control system can monitor each electric chair and make overall dispatch. A distance meter can also be set at the station entrance to detect the distance from the normally running electric chair to the station entrance. As long as it is greater than the specified safety distance, it will be released. (The release fork is not T-shaped, but slowly closes, so the released electric chair slowly accelerates and then merges onto the main track).

[0040] The control system must also have an emergency evacuation function. When there is a serious backlog of passengers on a certain platform, the control system can provide a slight speed increase (up to 3 to 5 kilometers) to speed up operation, or divert some passengers to the fast track to reserve more safety windows. Similarly, after the system stops running, the control system needs to coordinate the deployment of seats based on the number of seats previously equipped at each station and the principle of proximity.

[0041] In some large cities, there are always some very large enterprises or colleges and universities, which have very strong internal access needs and are unwilling to let outsiders enter in most cases. In response to this situation, we can build a relatively closed domain network, which forms a closed circulation system within the domain network. When designated internal personnel want to travel to the city network or enter the domain network from the city network, they must enter the corresponding code. This code is used in the domain network, but this code must also be bound to the total pass card number. Only by entering the correct code under the pass card can you enter the domain network. This is mainly for security. Of course, the domain network is a collaborative network, and its internal billing is different from that of the city network. Therefore, the city network part and the domain network part are distinguished by coding, which is also for correct billing.

[0042] The means of transportation are located in an elevated, closed and independent circulation road system, which is completely controlled by a main control system to transport passengers. The operating rules are as follows: when a passenger takes a means of transportation that meets his or her personal needs at the platform and enters the destination he or she wants to go to (the name of the platform), the main control system will automatically calculate the route in the background.

[0043] Each vehicle has a code recognized by the main control system to determine the identity of the vehicle. After calculating the route, the main control system will issue a series of commands to the vehicle (in fact, a certain code is issued within the system). These commands are used for the vehicle to complete corresponding actions while driving.

[0044] Transponders will be installed on the track to calculate the gap between two vehicles. The main control system will send out appropriate departure signals based on the gaps between other vehicles currently running on the main track. When the vehicle receives the departure signal from the main control system, it will slowly accelerate and merge into the main track. When the vehicle actually enters the track, the main control system will lock the route and speed. During this period, passengers have no right to change their destination and cannot control the speed. Everything is coordinated by the main control system based on big data to ensure the distance between the front and rear passengers and the safest running speed.

[0045] At the same time, the vehicle will send out the first command, and the transponder installed at the fork will filter these commands. When the correct command is found, the time of arrival at the fork is calculated based on the distance of the correct command code. When the vehicle carrying the correct command drives to the fork, the transponder will instruct the diverter on the track to divert, so that the vehicle will be assigned to the adjacent secondary track by the diverter, and then complete the exit or turn through the secondary track. The exit or turn will start to share a track, and then the exit or turn selection will be completed after receiving the response from the next fork again.

[0046] A pinch-off coding scheme is adopted. The executed coding segments will be pinched off, and the coding segments that do not need to be executed (straight-through coding) will also be pinched off. When all the passwords carried by the vehicle are used up, it will arrive at the designated platform and complete the entire journey. When arriving at the platform, passengers need to complete the payment through the payment system. Of course, the platform staff will determine whether the passenger needs to pay additional fees for other actions based on the integrity of the vehicle. Therefore, the passenger's payment system must include a deposit.

[0047] When the vehicles on the main track are busy and cannot complete the track change, the vehicles will not stop and wait, but continue to travel on the slow track until the next track change window arrives to complete the track change.

[0048] To sum up: this unmanned electric rail transit system that meets the needs of individual passengers, through a control system, a remote control window opening unit, an electric rail unit, a power system, a ranging emergency and other safety measures units, encoders and transponders, solves the problems of low intelligence of existing urban rail transit, stopping at traffic lights, stopping at traffic jams, etc., low operating efficiency, poor concealment, low safety, inability to withstand urban rainstorms and floods, and being unfavorable for the evacuation of the public.
