[0002] In order to avoid safety accidents of maintenance personnel, the pantograph must be lowered and the grounding switch must be grounded before the maintenance and repair work of related equipment can be carried out when the rail locomotive is in the depot for maintenance. Therefore, the commonly used guarantee method on the rail transit system is to set a high-voltage interlocking key box to ensure that the pantograph lowering operation is completed before the grounding switch key is taken out, and the key of the protection box of other equipment on the vehicle can be taken out after the grounding switch is operated by using the key. As a high-voltage interlocking key box to ensure that the pantograph is interlocked, its function is to form interlocking with the driver's key, reliably cut off the air path of the pantograph cylinder, and set conditions for the next level key to be taken out. In order to realize this function, the existing interlocking key box needs multiple steps of operation, that is, first unlock the key box with the driver's key, then rotate the stop valve handle to cut off the air path and release the grounding switch key, then rotate the grounding switch key and take it out to operate the next level grounding switch. The above operation method has too many steps and greatly increases the risk of misoperation by maintenance personnel. At present, there is no interlocking key box that can directly use the driver's key to realize the function through one-step operation and has high reliability and long service life. SUMMARY

[0028] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more clear, the technical scheme of the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in combination with the drawings of the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0029] The application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0030] With reference to Figure 1 The application provides a pantograph interlocking control device for rail transit maintenance, which comprises an interlocking mechanism, an interlocking sliding block 6, a first switch, a second switch and a pilot double-control electromagnetic valve 16. The pilot double-control electromagnetic valve 16 is arranged on a high-pressure air path of a locomotive, and the first switch and the second switch are respectively used for controlling the power-on state of the two ends of the pilot double-control electromagnetic valve 16.
[0031] The interlocking mechanism comprises a panel 1 and two interlocking holes arranged on the panel 1. The locking tongues in the two interlocking holes are connected with the interlocking sliding block 6, and any locking tongue is rotated to drive the interlocking sliding block 6 to slide horizontally, and then the interlocking sliding block 6 synchronously drives the other locking tongue to rotate. The interlocking sliding block 6 is provided with a first trigger sliding block 10 and a second trigger sliding block 11, which are respectively used for triggering the first switch and the second switch.
[0032] Specifically, one interlocking hole 7 in the interlocking mechanism is matched with a locomotive key, and the other interlocking hole 8 is matched with a grounding switch key 9. Through the above structure, the locomotive key and the grounding switch key 9 are formed into an interlocking function through the interlocking mechanism, and the power-on state of the two ends of the pilot double-control electromagnetic valve 16 is controlled through the interlocking sliding block 6, thereby controlling the on-off state of the high-pressure air path of the locomotive. The interlocking sliding block 6 is controlled by the locomotive key and the grounding switch key 9, so that only the operation of rotating the locomotive key can realize the interlocking function of the locomotive key, the pantograph lowering and the grounding switch key 9, which is more simple and fast compared with the previous multi-step operation.
[0033] In the embodiment, the interlocking sliding block 6, the first switch, the second switch and the pilot double-control electromagnetic valve 16 are fixedly arranged on the rear side of the panel 1, and can be fixed on the locomotive through the mounting holes at the four corners of the panel 1.
[0034] With reference to Figure 2 Two rows of guide columns are arranged on the panel 1, and the interlocking sliding block 6 is arranged between the two rows of guide columns. In order to limit the upward movement of the interlocking sliding block 6, a stopper is fixed at the top end of the relative guide column. The application also limits the horizontal movement of the interlocking sliding block 6 through the guide column, and can also be limited through a slide and other ways.
[0035] Further, a first sliding groove is arranged at the same height of the guide column, and the interlocking sliding block 6 is arranged in the first sliding groove.
[0036] With reference to Figure 3Also included is a letter slider 4, which has the letters ON and OFF on it to show the status at the time. A window 5 is provided on the panel 1 to show the letters on the letter slider 4. The letter slider 4 is fixedly connected to the interlocking slider 6, and the letter slider 4 is also disposed between the two columns of guide posts. The letter slider 4 can be at the same level as the interlocking slider 6, or at a different level.
[0037] Further, a second sliding groove is provided at the same height as the guide posts, and the second sliding groove is at a different height than the first sliding groove. The letter slider 4 is slidingly disposed in the second sliding groove. This arrangement saves space compared to the letter slider 4 being at the same level as the interlocking slider 6, and the same outside bending of the letter slider 4 and the interlocking slider 6 is more secure through bolt connection.
[0038] Still further, the length of the letter slider 4 is less than the length of the interlocking slider, so that second sliding grooves are not provided in all of the guide posts, but only in the guide posts used in the travel of the letter slider 4. Therefore, there are two types of guide posts in the present application, which are the first guide posts 2 and the second guide posts 3, as shown in Figure 2 In the present embodiment, there are four first guide posts 2 and four second guide posts 3, with the four first guide posts 2 arranged two by two on the right side of the panel 1, and the four second guide posts 3 arranged two by two on the left side of the panel 1.
[0039] Continuing to refer to Figure 2 , the first switch includes the first micro switch 12 and the third micro switch 14 that are triggered synchronously, and the second switch includes the second micro switch 13 and the fourth micro switch 15 that are triggered synchronously. The first micro switch 12 and the second micro switch 13 are used to control the on-off of the main circuit of the locomotive, and the third micro switch 14 and the fourth micro switch 15 are respectively used to control the power supply state of the pilot-operated double-control electromagnetic valve 16.
[0040] Further, a time relay 18 is provided on the circuit at both ends of the pilot-operated double-control electromagnetic valve 16.

In order to supply power to the pilot double control electromagnetic valve 16, a cable fixing head 19 is also provided on the panel 1, which is connected with an external power supply, and the connection circuit of the cable fixing head 19 is circuit 1 and circuit 2 in the figure. In order to better show the on-off of the locomotive main circuit, circuits 3 and 4 and circuits 5 and 6 in the figure are both locomotive main circuit diagrams, which are connected to the normally open contact and the normally closed contact of the two micro switches according to the requirements of the locomotive system.
[0042] Referring to Figure 5 In order to connect the pilot double control electromagnetic valve with the high-pressure gas circuit of the locomotive, a gas circuit connector 17 is also provided on the panel 1, which is connected with the high-pressure gas circuit of the locomotive, and when the SQL1 end of the pilot double control electromagnetic valve 16 is powered, the inlet and outlet ports are connected in communication, and the high-pressure gas circuit of the locomotive is connected; when the SQL2 end is powered, the gas circuit is switched and the inlet and outlet ports are cut off.
[0043] The control method of the present application comprises:

[0046] After a period of time, the time relay 18 cuts off the power supply of one end SQL1 of the pilot double control electromagnetic valve 16, and the pilot double control electromagnetic valve 16 remains in the previous state, and the grounding switch key 9 cannot be rotated and pulled out during this process;
[0047] When the locomotive is under repair, the locomotive is parked and the locomotive key is pulled out and inserted into the interlocking mechanism;
[0048] When the locomotive key is rotated, the interlocking slide 6 slides horizontally with the rotation of the locomotive key, so that the first trigger slide 10 is away from the first micro switch 12 and the third micro switch 14, and the second trigger slide 11 triggers the second micro switch 13 and the fourth micro switch 15, i.e. the second micro switch 13 disconnects the signal terminal, the main circuit of the locomotive is powered off, the locomotive cab can no longer control the locomotive parts, and double protection is provided for the pantograph lowering interlock, and the fourth micro switch 15 energizes the other end SQL2 of the pilot-operated double-control electromagnetic valve 16, so that the high-pressure air circuit of the locomotive is disconnected, i.e. the inlet and outlet air ports of the pilot-operated double-control electromagnetic valve 16 are cut off, the pantograph cylinder is connected with the atmosphere, and the pantograph is lowered.
