The preferred embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, but in addition to these detailed descriptions, the present application may also have other implementation methods.

[0047] The first aspect of the present application provides a method for automatically determining a turnout equipment fault, such as Figure 1 As shown, the automatic determination method includes:

[0048] Step S1: When the turnout equipment operates normally, a turnout operation current reference curve is established;

[0049] Step S2: dividing the time domain of the turnout action current into at least three time domains according to the turnout action current reference curve, namely, a start unlocking time domain, a conversion time domain, and a locking and releasing time domain;

[0050] Step S3: obtaining the current value within each time domain range to obtain a start-unlock time domain reference current array, a conversion time domain reference current array, and a lock-release time domain reference current array;

[0051] Step S4: when the turnout equipment is working, the turnout action current data of the turnout equipment is collected online in real time, and the turnout action current is divided according to the time domain to obtain a start-unlock time domain sampling current array, a conversion time domain sampling current array, and a lock-release time domain sampling current array;

[0052] Step S5: calculating the linear correlation coefficient between the start-unlock time domain reference current array and the start-unlock time domain sampling current array, calculating the linear correlation coefficient between the conversion time domain reference current array and the conversion time domain sampling current array, and calculating the linear correlation coefficient between the lock-and-release time domain reference current array and the lock-and-release time domain sampling current array;

[0053] Step S6: Compare the linear correlation coefficient obtained in step S5 with the corresponding preset linear correlation coefficient threshold. If any linear correlation coefficient obtained in step S5 is less than the corresponding preset linear correlation coefficient threshold, it is directly determined that the turnout equipment fails within the time domain.

[0054] The present application proposes a method for automatically determining a turnout equipment fault. The method divides the turnout action current reference curve into time domains according to the characteristics of the turnout action current reference curve, and calculates the linear correlation coefficient (such as the PEARSON correlation coefficient) between the sampled current array of the turnout action current collected online and the reference current array generated by the system in each time domain, and automatically determines whether the turnout equipment has a fault based on this linear correlation coefficient. This method can help maintenance personnel to timely discover turnout equipment faults when the turnout action current data collected by the signal maintenance support system MSS is collected, thereby improving the work efficiency of maintenance personnel.

[0055] The advantages of this application are:

[0056] 1. Online measurement of turnout action current reference curve makes the reference basis for turnout fault judgment more reliable.

[0057] 2. Divide the turnout action current reference curve into time domain, calculate the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient (Pearson correlation coefficient) between the sampled current array in each time domain and the corresponding time domain reference current array, and use this coefficient as the basis to judge the similarity between the current sampled current curve and the reference current curve, so as to determine whether there is a fault in the turnout, and the result is more accurate;

[0058] 3. Compared with other methods, this judgment method is simpler and more effective, and easier to implement in practical applications.

[0059] The following is a detailed description of the automatic fault determination method of the turnout equipment of the present application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the turnout action current curve in this application; Figure 3 This is an example of a sample action current curve of a single-action turnout in an embodiment of the present application; Figure 4 This is a flowchart of a method for automatically determining a turnout equipment failure in one embodiment of the present application.

[0060] In step S1, the sampling period of the turnout current is determined according to the factory-set turnout action current curve provided by the turnout equipment. The sampling period can be determined according to the duration of the normal action of the turnout equipment and is not limited to a certain value range. In one embodiment of the present application, the sampling period of the turnout current can be 10ms.

[0061] In one embodiment of the present application, the current of the normal operation of the turnout equipment is sampled multiple times, and the time and current data of each sampling point are recorded to form multiple groups of time-current two-dimensional arrays of the operation current.

[0062] In one embodiment of the present application, the switch action current is sampled at equal intervals to obtain current data of N switch actions, and a switch action current reference curve is established with the switch action time as the horizontal coordinate and the discrete current data as the vertical coordinate.

[0063] In one embodiment of the present application, the method further includes performing a weighted synthesis operation on the collected multiple sets of time-current curve two-dimensional arrays to generate a weighted time-current two-dimensional array to improve the accuracy of the switch action current reference curve. Then, based on the weighted time-current two-dimensional array, a switch action current reference curve is established with the switch action time as the horizontal coordinate and the discrete current data as the vertical coordinate.

[0064] In one embodiment of the present application, three sets of two-dimensional arrays of time-current curves are collected, and the current values ​​at corresponding sampling time points are averaged, so that the calculated average value is used as the time-current two-dimensional array of the current reference curve.

[0065] In step S2, the turnout action current reference curve is divided into time domains, wherein, in one embodiment of the present application, the turnout action current reference curve is divided into at least three time domains, namely, a start unlocking time domain, a conversion time domain, and a locking and releasing time domain.

[0066] The time domain division may be performed based on the sampling period of the turnout current and the turnout action current curve provided by the manufacturer of the turnout equipment. The operator may adjust the time domain based on the actual situation and the time domain division is not limited to a certain example.

[0067] Specifically, the step S2 further includes determining the starting time point and the ending time point of the start unlocking time domain, the conversion time domain and the locking and releasing time domain, such as Figure 2 As shown, according to each starting time point and ending time point, the time domain of the action current is divided into the start and unlock time domain, the conversion time domain, the locking and release time domain, as shown in Figure 2 As shown; determine the starting time point T0 and the ending time point T1 of the turnout start unlocking time domain and record them; determine the starting time point T1 and the ending time point T2 of the turnout switching time domain and record them; determine the starting time point T2 and the ending time point T3 of the turnout locking and releasing time domain and record them.

[0068] In one embodiment of the present application, according to the manual of the turnout equipment, the normal action time of the turnout from the reverse position to the fixed position is 6000ms, and the sampling period for collecting the turnout current is 10ms. Therefore, each time the turnout moves from the reverse position to the fixed position, the MSS will collect 600 current data, and the sampling interval time of each data is 10ms.

[0069] like Figure 3 As shown, the start time point of the unlocking time domain is set to T0=0ms, the end time point of the unlocking time domain is set to T1=the start time point of the conversion time domain is set to T1=600ms, the end time point of the conversion time domain is set to T2=the start time point of the unlocking slow-release time domain is set to T2=5450ms, and the end time point of the unlocking slow-release time domain is set to T3=6000ms.

[0070] In step S3, the current value at each sampling time point within each time domain range is obtained from the reference time-current two-dimensional array, the switch action current is divided according to the time domain, and recorded as current arrays of each time domain (arranged in the order of sampling time points), namely, the start unlocking time domain reference current array, the conversion time domain reference current array, and the locking and releasing time domain reference current array.

[0071] That is, in this step, according to the time range of the start-unlock time domain, the conversion time domain, and the lock-and-release time domain, combined with the sampling time points in the time-current two-dimensional array of the reference curve, the time-current two-dimensional array of the reference curve obtained in step S1 is divided into corresponding time domains, thereby obtaining the start-unlock time domain reference current array, the conversion time domain reference current array, and the lock-and-release time domain reference current array.

[0072] Among them, the start-unlock time domain reference current array, the conversion time domain reference current array and the lock-release time domain reference current array are respectively part of the turnout action current reference curve, that is, partial curves, and the combination of the three curves is the complete turnout action current reference curve.

[0073] In the step S4, the turnout action current data is continuously collected online in real time with the same sampling period as mentioned above, that is, according to the sampling period of the turnout action current, the turnout action current data of the turnout equipment is collected online in real time, and after converting it into a time-current two-dimensional array, the turnout action current is divided according to the time domain, that is, the current arrays of each time domain are obtained according to the same time domain as mentioned above, which are the start unlocking time domain sampling current array, the conversion time domain sampling current array, and the locking and releasing time domain sampling current array.

[0074] Among them, the start-unlock time domain sampling current array, the conversion time domain sampling current array, and the lock-release time domain sampling current array are three curves respectively, which together constitute the turnout action current sampling curve. In this application, the turnout action current reference curve is compared with the turnout action current sampling curve in sections for similarity comparison to determine whether the turnout equipment has a fault.

[0075] In order to improve the accuracy of the similarity comparison between the turnout action current reference curve and the turnout action current sampling curve, in the step S5, the linear correlation coefficients of the sampling current arrays in each time domain and the reference current array are calculated in sequence according to the start-unlock time domain, the conversion time domain, and the locking and releasing time domain, that is, the linear correlation coefficients of the start-unlock time domain reference current array and the start-unlock time domain sampling current array are calculated in sequence, the linear correlation coefficients of the conversion time domain reference current array and the conversion time domain sampling current array are calculated, and the linear correlation coefficients of the locking and releasing time domain reference current array and the locking and releasing time domain sampling current array are calculated.

[0076] The linear correlation coefficient is the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient P. The Pearson correlation coefficient is widely used to measure the correlation between two variables, and is used in the present application to measure the correlation (linear correlation) between two corresponding current arrays in the time domain, and its value is between -1 and 1.

[0077] In step S6, during the similarity comparison process, a preset linear correlation coefficient threshold P1 is usually pre-set, and then the Pearson correlation coefficient P obtained in step S5 is compared with the corresponding preset linear correlation coefficient threshold P1, and whether the turnout equipment fails is determined based on the comparison result.

[0078] Specifically, in a certain time domain, if any linear correlation coefficient obtained in step S5 is less than the corresponding system preset linear correlation coefficient threshold, it is directly determined that the turnout equipment has a fault in this time domain stage, and a fault alarm prompt is given.

[0079] If the Pearson correlation coefficient P between the time domain sampling current array and the reference current array is greater than or equal to the preset linear correlation coefficient threshold P1, although the turnout action sampling current curve and the turnout action reference current curve are similar in shape, it is possible that the value of the turnout action sampling current curve at each time point in the time domain increases or decreases by the same or nearly the same current value compared with the turnout action reference current curve. In order to prevent such an error, in this case, the mean difference ΔAVG of the two current arrays within the time domain range is further calculated to determine the turnout fault in this case.

[0080] If the linear correlation coefficient obtained in step S5 is greater than or equal to the corresponding system preset linear correlation coefficient threshold, the difference between the mean of the sampling current array within the time domain range and the mean of the corresponding time domain reference current array is calculated. If the difference in the mean is greater than the system preset threshold, a fault is determined within the time domain range and an alarm prompt is given.

[0081] In one embodiment of the present application, a system-preset threshold for comparing the difference with the mean value is set in the start-unlock time domain, the conversion time domain and the lock-release time domain.

[0082] In the present application, the methods are all executed in the signal maintenance support subsystem (MSS) to realize real-time online detection of turnout equipment failures, which is simpler, more effective and easier to implement.

[0083] In addition, the movement of the turnout equipment described in the present application can be from reverse position to fixed position, or from fixed position to reverse position, and is not limited to any one of them.

[0084] It should be noted that the method of the present application is not only applicable to single-action switch equipment, but also to multi-action switch equipment. In the multi-action switch equipment, there are multiple switch action current reference curves and multiple switch action current sampling curves. The switch action current reference curve and the corresponding switch action current are compared for similarity to make a judgment, which will not be repeated here.

[0085] In one embodiment of the present application, the specific implementation method of the method is as follows: In this embodiment, the signal maintenance support subsystem (MSS) is used as the operating system to perform fault monitoring and fault warning on the single-action turnout equipment of the signal system, and the monitoring of the action current curve from reverse position to fixed position is taken as an example.

[0086] According to the factory settings of the turnout equipment, the normal rotation time of the turnout from reverse position to fixed position is 6000ms, and the sampling period of the MSS system for collecting turnout current is determined to be 10ms. Therefore, each time the turnout moves from reverse position to fixed position, the MSS will collect 600 current data, and the sampling interval of each data is 10ms.

[0087] After the signal system and MSS system are installed, the signal system repeats the normal operation of the turnout from reverse position to fixed position three times, and the MSS system collects the current of the turnout from reverse position to fixed position respectively. The three sets of turnout action current curve data collected are shown in Tables 1 to 3, and the weighted sample action current curve data are shown in Table 4: Table-1 The first set of turnout action current table from reverse position to fixed position

[0094]

[0095]

[0096] Next, the MSS system draws the switch action current reference curve, which can be obtained from Figure 3 The curve characteristics in determine the start value T0 of the unlocking time domain, the end value of the unlocking time domain and the start time point T1 of the conversion time domain, the end time point of the conversion time domain and the start time point T2 of the unlocking slow-release time domain, the end time point T3 of the unlocking slow-release time domain, the system preset linear correlation coefficient threshold P1, and the system preset threshold ΔAVG1.

[0097] Specifically, the start time point of the unlocking time domain is set to T0 = 0ms, the end time point of the unlocking time domain is set to T1 = the start time point of the conversion time domain T1 = 600ms, the end time point of the conversion time domain T2 = the start time point of the unlocking slow-release time domain T2 = 5450ms, the end time point of the unlocking slow-release time domain T3 = 6000ms, the system preset linear correlation coefficient threshold P1 = 0.90, and the system preset threshold ΔAVG1 = 1A, such as Figure 3 As shown;

[0098] In actual operation, if the Pearson correlation coefficient of all the sampled current arrays acquired in the 0-600ms turnout start-up and unlocking time domain and the reference current array in the corresponding time domain is 0.5 in the action current curve data collected when a turnout switches from reverse position to positioning, which is less than the system preset linear correlation coefficient threshold value P1=0.90, the system determines that the turnout equipment has a fault during the turnout start-up and locking period, and no longer makes judgments in the remaining time domain, and gives a turnout fault alarm;

[0099] If in the action current curve data collected when a turnout switches from reverse position to positioning, the Pearson correlation coefficient calculated between the sampled current array obtained in the 0-600ms turnout start-up unlocking time domain and the reference current array in the corresponding time domain is 0.95, which is greater than the system preset linear correlation coefficient threshold value P1=0.90, then the system calculates that the difference between the mean of the sampled current array in the 0-600ms time domain and the mean of the reference current array in the corresponding time domain is 1.2A, which is greater than the system preset threshold value ΔAVG1(1A), then the system determines that there is a fault in the turnout during the start-up unlocking period, no longer makes judgments in the remaining time domains, and gives a turnout fault alarm; the judgment method for other time domains is the same as the judgment method for the aforementioned start-up unlocking time domain.

[0100] In another embodiment of the present application, Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, firstly, the normal turnout action current data is sampled online;

[0101] Then, a two-dimensional time-current array of the switch action current is generated and weighted calculation is performed;

[0102] Draw the reference curve of turnout action current;

[0103] Set the turnout fault judgment parameters, such as the starting point of the unlocking time domain, the conversion time domain, the locking and releasing time domain, as well as the system preset linear correlation coefficient threshold and the system preset threshold.

[0104] In actual work, the turnout action current sampling curve data is sampled in real time, and it is determined whether the collection of the entire turnout action current sampling curve data is completed. If completed, the next instruction is executed. If the collection of the entire turnout action current sampling curve data is not completed, data collection continues to ensure that the collection of the entire turnout action current sampling curve data is completed.

[0105] After completing the acquisition of the entire turnout action current sampling curve data, determine whether the linear correlation coefficient P between the start unlocking time domain reference current array and the start unlocking time domain sampling current array is less than the system preset linear correlation coefficient threshold value P1. If this condition is met, an alarm fault is given. If not, continue to determine whether the difference between the start unlocking time domain reference current array mean and the reference current array mean of the start unlocking time domain sampling current array is greater than the system preset threshold value ΔAVG1. If so, an alarm fault is given.

[0106] If there is no fault in the start-up unlocking time domain, the conversion time domain and the locking and releasing time domain are judged in sequence according to the same method as above until there is no fault in all the time domains.
