[0002] With the development of economy and technology, rail transit has become the main means of transportation in each city and one of the first choices for people to travel due to its fastness and convenience. Rail transit vehicles, as the carriers directly transporting passengers, naturally become one of the most important components of rail transit. The stability, safety, and comfort of rail transit vehicles have thus become the parts that people are most concerned about.

[0003] In the traditional rail transit air-conditioning control technical solution, only the air-conditioning control unit controls the operation of the rail transit air conditioner. When the air-conditioning control unit fails, the rail transit air-conditioning system stops working.

[0004] For the existing rail transit air-conditioning system, once a certain air-conditioning control unit fails and stops working, the corresponding carriage air conditioner will be out of control and enter the shutdown state, which will seriously affect the reliability and efficiency of vehicle operation; when an emergency occurs, the air conditioner cannot maintain the normal ventilation function, and passengers may not be able to breathe smoothly, posing a great safety hazard. Summary of the Invention

[0005] Based on this, in view of the above problems, it is necessary to provide a rail transit air-conditioning control device that can monitor whether the air-conditioning control unit in the rail transit air-conditioning control device fails, and automatically take over the control of the failed air-conditioning control unit when the air-conditioning control unit fails, improving the reliability and safety of train operation. At the same time, the present invention also provides a rail transit air-conditioning control method and a system thereof.

[0010] Another technical means adopted by the present invention is: to provide a rail transit air-conditioning control method, and the control method includes:

[0011] Monitor whether the air-conditioning control unit is normal;

[0012] When the air-conditioning control unit is normal, the air-conditioning control unit controls the ventilation switch and the damper switch of the air-conditioning unit;

[0013] When the air-conditioning control unit is abnormal, switch to the redundant control unit to control the ventilation switch and the damper switch of the air-conditioning unit.

[0014] Another technical means adopted by the present invention is: to provide a rail transit air-conditioning control system, and the control system includes:

[0015] Several groups of control subsystems; each group of control subsystems includes the rail transit air-conditioning control device;

[0016] One rail transit air-conditioning control device is configured on each carriage of the rail transit vehicle.

[0017] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the rail transit air-conditioning control device provided by the present invention increases a redundant control unit, and the monitoring and switching unit monitors whether the air-conditioning control unit is normal.

The second ends of the coils of the second intermediate relay KA02 and the first time relay KT01 respectively receive power signals. The first end of the coil of the first time relay KT01 is connected to the first contact of the normally open switch of the first time relay KT01.

[0047] In this embodiment, the plurality of diodes can reduce the malfunction of the air-conditioning components. For example, it can prevent the air-conditioning control unit 13 from conducting electricity in the reverse direction through the redundant control unit 11 during normal operation, resulting in abnormal power-on of other circuits and malfunction.

[0048] In one embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, the rail transit air-conditioning control device 10 may further include a drive unit 14, and the drive unit 14 may include a plurality of relays and / or a plurality of contactors. The plurality of relays may be one or more of an intermediate relay, a three-phase detection relay, and a time relay.

[0049] In one embodiment, the drive unit 14 may include an emergency ventilation drive circuit, a normal ventilation drive circuit, an emergency ventilation start drive circuit, and a damper opening drive circuit.

[0050] It should be noted that the redundant control unit 11 can control the opening of the ventilation of the air-conditioning unit 20. The redundant control unit 11 can control the opening of the damper of the air-conditioning unit 20, and can also control the closing of the damper of the air-conditioning unit 20. Further, the drive unit 14 may further include a damper closing drive circuit. As Figure 6As shown, the damper closing drive circuit may include a damper closing intermediate relay KA07. Further, the damper may include a fresh air damper and a return air damper.

[0052] Specifically, as Figure 6As shown, the first output terminal of the redundancy control unit 11, i.e., the stationary contact of the normally closed switch of the second intermediate relay KA02, is connected to the first end of the coil of the first emergency ventilation contactor KME13, the first end of the coil of the second emergency ventilation contactor KME23, the first end of the coil of the emergency ventilation start intermediate relay KA03, and the first end of the coil of the air door opening intermediate relay KA06; the second end of the coil of the first emergency ventilation contactor KME13 is connected to the second end of the coil of the second emergency ventilation contactor KME23 and is connected to the stationary contact of the normally closed switch of the first normal ventilation contactor KM13. The moving contact of the normally closed switch of the first normal ventilation contactor KM13 is connected to the stationary contact of the normally closed switch of the second normal ventilation contactor KM23, and the moving contact of the normally closed switch of the second normal ventilation contactor KM23 is connected to the negative output terminal N24 of the power supply 15; the second end of the coil of the emergency ventilation start intermediate relay KA03 and the second end of the coil of the air door opening intermediate relay KA06 are both connected to the negative output terminal N24 of the power supply 15. Specifically, the second output terminal of the redundancy control unit 11, i.e., the stationary contact of the normally open switch of the second intermediate relay KA02, is connected to the first end of the coil of the first normal ventilation contactor KM13, the first end of the coil of the second normal ventilation contactor KM23, and the first end of the coil of the air door opening intermediate relay KA06; the second end of the coil of the first normal ventilation contactor KM13 is connected to the second end of the coil of the second normal ventilation contactor KM23 and is connected to the stationary contact of the normally closed switch of the first emergency ventilation contactor KME13.

[0053] Further, as Figure 6As shown, the specific working process of the rail transit air-conditioning control device 10 is as follows: When the first intermediate relay KA01 detects a fault in the air-conditioning control unit 13, that is, the first intermediate relay KA01 is not powered on, the normally closed contact of the first intermediate relay KA01 conducts, the first time relay KT01 is powered on, and after a time delay, it conducts and the normally open contact of the first time relay KT01 closes; At this time, the three-phase detection relay B11 is used to detect whether there is an abnormality in the 380V supplied to the redundant control unit 11. If there is an abnormality, the second intermediate relay KA02 is not powered on. At this time, the normally closed contact of the second intermediate relay KA02 conducts, controlling the first normal ventilation contactor KM13, the second normal ventilation contactor KM23, the first emergency ventilation contactor KME13, the second emergency ventilation contactor KME23, the emergency ventilation start intermediate relay KA03, and the air door opening intermediate relay KA06 to work, realizing the emergency ventilation of the air conditioner and the full-open function of the air door; If there is no abnormality, the second intermediate relay KA02 is powered on. At this time, the normally open contact of the second intermediate relay KA02 conducts, controlling the first normal ventilation contactor KM13, the second normal ventilation contactor KM23, the first emergency ventilation contactor KME13, the second emergency ventilation contactor KME23, and the air door opening intermediate relay KA06 to work, realizing the normal ventilation of the air conditioner and the full-open function of the air door;

[0054] In this embodiment, the forward conduction and reverse cut-off characteristics of the diode are utilized to prevent electric leakage between different circuits and reduce the misoperation of air-conditioning components. The self-locking between relay components is utilized to avoid the logical judgment error of the redundant control unit 11. By adding the redundant control unit 11 in this embodiment, not only is it highly reliable, good in applicability and simple to implement, but also the reliability and safety of the rail transit air-conditioning control system are improved. By reasonably matching hardware facilities such as intermediate relays, three-phase detection relays, and contactors, the normal operation of the rail transit air conditioner under certain special circumstances is realized, and the reliability and safety of train operation are improved.

[0055] In one embodiment, as Figure 4 shown, the air-conditioning unit 20 may include air-conditioning unit one 21 and air-conditioning unit two 22; It can be seen from the figure that the air-conditioning control unit 13 can control the fans, air doors, and others of air-conditioning unit one 21 and air-conditioning unit two 22, and the redundant control unit 11 can only control the fan and air door functions of air-conditioning unit one 21 and air-conditioning unit two 22 when the air-conditioning control unit 13 fails.

[0056] In one embodiment, as Figure 5As shown, the rail transit air - conditioner control device 10 may further include a collection unit 16, and the collection unit 16 is connected to the air - conditioner control unit 13 and the air - conditioner unit 20.

[0070] Step S7: When both the air-conditioning control unit and the three-phase power supply signal are normal, the air-conditioning control unit controls the normal ventilation switch and damper switch of the air-conditioning unit;

[0071] Step S8: When the air-conditioning control unit is normal and the three-phase power supply signal is abnormal, the air-conditioning control unit controls the emergency ventilation switch and damper switch of the air-conditioning unit.

[0072] As Figure 10 shown, Figure 10 is a control flow chart of a rail transit air-conditioning in one embodiment.

[0073] In one embodiment, the situation of the abnormal air-conditioning control signal can be various. For example, when the air-conditioning control unit 13 only detects a fault in its own drive circuit, the air-conditioning control unit 13 stops outputting the normal signal of the air-conditioning control signal, and at this time the air-conditioning control signal is abnormal. When the monitoring and switching unit 12 monitors that the air-conditioning control signal is abnormal, it cuts off the drive circuit in the air-conditioning control unit 13 and switches to the redundant control unit 11 to control the normal ventilation switch and damper switch of the air-conditioning unit 20, realizing the functions of normal ventilation and damper switch control of the air-conditioning. When the monitoring and switching unit 12 monitors that the air-conditioning control signal is abnormal and the three-phase power supply signal provided to the air-conditioning unit 20 is also abnormal, it switches to the redundant control unit 11 to control the emergency ventilation switch and the damper switch of the air-conditioning unit 20 to ensure that the air-conditioning can continue to operate in case of an emergency.

[0074] In one embodiment, when the monitoring and switching unit 12 monitors that the condition for the air conditioner control unit 13 to allow the air conditioner to be turned on is not met, the air conditioner control signal is abnormal at this time. Then it switches to the redundant control unit 11, and the redundant control unit 11 takes over the drive circuit of the air conditioner control unit 13 to control the air conditioner unit 20, realizing the ventilation and damper control functions of the air conditioner, preventing the failure of the air conditioner control unit 13 and the shutdown of the air conditioner.

[0075] In one embodiment, after the air conditioner control unit 13 fails, the air conditioner control signal is abnormal at this time; then it switches to the redundant control unit 11 to control the ventilation switch and damper switch of the air conditioner unit 20.

[0076] The present invention also provides a rail transit air conditioner control system. In one embodiment, the control system may include several groups of control subsystems; each group of control subsystems may include the rail transit air conditioner control device 10 described in any of the above embodiments; one such rail transit air conditioner control device 10 is configured on each carriage of the rail transit vehicle.

[0077] For the rail transit air conditioner control system provided in this embodiment, the rail transit air conditioner control device 10 can automatically monitor whether the internal air conditioner control unit 13 fails. When the air conditioner control unit 13 fails, the redundant control unit 11 automatically takes over the control of the failed air conditioner control unit 13, improving the reliability and safety of train operation.

[0078] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of brevity of description, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, it should be considered as the scope recorded in this specification.

[0079] The above-described embodiments only represent several implementation manners of the present application. The description is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be construed as a limitation on the patent scope of the present application. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present application, several modifications and improvements can still be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present application shall be subject to the appended claims.
