[0053] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 for Figure 1 The structural diagram of the integrated network node unit is shown in Figure 1. Figure 2 As shown, each of the integrated network node units 21, 22, 23 includes:

[0054] The control panel communication module J1 is connected to the power supply system and the carriage monitoring screen of the carriage through the RS232 bus. The control panel communication module is also connected to the undercarriage power supply device of the carriage through the Lonwoks network. The control panel communication module collects the subsystem network data of the power supply system, the carriage monitoring screen and the undercarriage power supply device;

[0055] The first subsystem communication module J2 is connected to the axle temperature system or the axle temperature system and the insulation detection system of the compartment through the RS485 bus, and the first subsystem communication module collects the subsystem network data of the axle temperature system, or the first subsystem communication module collects the subsystem network data of the axle temperature system and the insulation detection system;

[0056] The second subsystem communication module J3 is connected to the anti-skid device of the compartment through the RS232 bus. The second subsystem communication module is also connected to the pyrotechnic system of the compartment through the RS485 bus. The second subsystem communication module collects the subsystem network data of the anti-skid device and the pyrotechnic system.

[0057] The third subsystem communication module J4 is connected to the sliding plug door of the compartment through the RS485 bus, and the third subsystem communication module collects the subsystem network data of the sliding plug door;

[0058] The subsystem network data processing module J5 sets a mark for each of the subsystem network data according to a preset condition, and sorts all of the subsystem network data according to the mark and then outputs them.

[0059] Among them, the mark includes a type mark and a time mark, and the preset conditions include: setting the subsystem network data that affects driving safety to a Class A mark, setting the monitoring data to a Class B mark, and setting the communication node monitoring data of other trailers to a Class C mark. The subsystem network data processing module sorts all the subsystem network data according to the Class A mark, Class B mark, Class C mark and time mark and outputs them.

[0060] Therefore, the present invention integrates distributed communication terminals to form an integrated network node unit, the subsystem retains the existing mode communication, and each module aggregates the subsystem network data into the subsystem network data processing module J5 through the backplane bus for processing, thereby canceling the original vehicle Lonwoks network, that is, canceling the vehicle-level bus, and using Ethernet bus transmission at the train level, thereby reducing the existing vehicle-level network delay and improving the data communication bandwidth.

[0061] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of data transmission in stages. Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, subsystem network data is transmitted in a hierarchical manner. According to the importance and urgency of the subsystem network data, the subsystem network data is divided into Class A data, such as door, loop, fire alarm and other data affecting driving safety; Class B data, such as status, temperature, value and other monitoring data; and Class C data, such as monitoring data of other vehicle communication nodes.

[0062] The specific instructions are as follows:

[0063] Class A data processing method, subsystem network data processing module J5 detects changes in sensitive variables, encapsulates the changed variables in the form of variable type, length and value into network data, sets the sent task time as the current time mark, adds tag A, and pushes it into the sending structure;

[0064] Class B data processing method, subsystem network data processing module J5 starts the periodic sending time timer. After the timer times out, subsystem network data processing module J5 encapsulates the fixed data into network data, sets the sending task time as the current time mark, adds the mark B, and pushes it into the sending structure;

[0065] C-type data processing method, after the subsystem network data processing module J5 receives the monitoring request from other communication nodes, the subsystem network data processing module J5 encapsulates its own vehicle status into network data, sets the task time to be sent as the current time mark, adds the mark C, and pushes it into the sending structure;

[0066] Before sending data, the subsystem network data processing module J5 re-sorts the data in the sending structure according to the type tags A, B, C and the current time tag in the sending task, and finally completes the data queue to be sent. The subsystem network data processing module J5 sends it to the train network according to the priority of A→B→C and the same type tag, with the current time tag in front.

[0067] Please refer to Figure 4 Combined with Figure 1 , Figure 4 It is a schematic diagram of all nodes interacting with each other in terms of train-level attribute information. Figure 4 As shown, the trailer network control system of the present invention also includes: a passenger information control unit 5, which is arranged in the dining and seating vehicle C and is connected to the switch unit 12 of the carriage where it is located via Ethernet. The passenger information control unit 5 receives the attribute information of the integrated network node units 21, 22, 23 and the monitoring terminal 3 and maintains the global network node index information. When the monitoring terminal fails, the passenger information control unit 5 receives the subsystem network data through the switch unit 12 and outputs it to the train-level host 4 to complete the train-level communication.

[0068] Furthermore, each of the integrated network node units 21, 22, 23 receives attribute information of other integrated network node units, the passenger information control unit 5 and the monitoring terminal 3 and maintains global network node index information. When the monitoring terminal 3 and the passenger information control unit 5 fail, one of the integrated network node units is determined according to a preset priority to receive the subsystem network data through the switch unit and output it to the train-level host 4 to complete the train-level communication.

[0069] Specifically, the monitoring terminal 3 is responsible for collecting the subsystem network data of all integrated network node units and sending control instructions to the integrated network node units, and summarizing the information of all integrated network node units to the train host 4 (TCDS). Therefore, once the monitoring terminal fails, the locomotive will not be able to collect the trailer network data. It plays a key role in the entire trailer network, but there is no redundant design in the hardware. For this reason, the train-level master control function is designed as a dynamic designation mechanism in software. The designation method is as follows:

[0070] The integrated network node unit, monitoring terminal, and passenger information control unit are architecturally divided into two basic communication functions, namely vehicle-level communication function and train-level communication function. The vehicle-level communication function is mainly responsible for communication with the subsystem within the car, and the train-level passenger information control unit function is mainly responsible for uploading local subsystem data and communicating with the train-level host, completing the train's monitoring function of the vehicle.

[0071] After being powered on, the integrated network node unit, monitoring terminal, and passenger information control unit start the communication function with the vehicle-level network subsystem to ensure the monitoring of the vehicle's internal communication subsystem. The train-level communication function obtains the function of the train-level master control through the principle of a dynamic election mechanism;

[0072] The monitoring terminal and the passenger information control unit are located in the same carriage, and the priorities of the communication rights with the train-level host are set to 1 and 2 respectively. The priorities of other integrated network node units can be assigned in sequence according to the carriage number information. In this embodiment, the smaller the carriage number, the higher the priority of the integrated network node unit is, which is a better implementation method;

[0073] After power-on, the integrated network node unit, monitoring terminal, and passenger information control unit start the attribute sending timer and regularly send their own attribute information, including the car number, device type, and default priority. At this stage, the train-level network only has device attribute information; the integrated network node unit, monitoring terminal, and passenger information control unit maintain global network node index information in each device by receiving attribute information from other devices (monitoring terminal, passenger information control unit, and integrated network node unit). At this stage, the train network only has attribute information; the integrated network node unit, monitoring terminal, and passenger information control unit compare the index information, and the node device with the highest priority obtains the train-level master control right, communicates with the train host 4, and notifies other network node devices through the train-level network, and waits for confirmation from other network node devices;

[0074] Among them, if the selected node device receives node attribute information with a higher priority during operation, the node device will automatically exit the communication with the train host 4 and restore to the original communication level; the unselected node device starts the detection timer, and if the heartbeat signal of the train host 4 is not obtained within the specified time, a new round of dynamic designation mechanism will be started.

[0075] In other words, the present invention first presets that the priority of monitoring terminal 3 is the highest. When the attribute information of monitoring terminal 3 is always in the index information, monitoring terminal 3 will always summarize the subsystem network data and output it to the train-level host to complete the train-level communication; when the attribute information of monitoring terminal 3 is not in the index information, that is, monitoring terminal 3 fails, the subsystem network data will be summarized and output to the train-level host through the passenger information control unit with the next highest priority to complete the train-level communication; if the attribute information of the passenger information control unit is not in the index information, the subsystem network data will be summarized and output to the train-level host according to an integrated network node unit with the smallest car number to complete the train-level communication; and so on.

[0076] It should be noted that the present invention does not limit the number of trailers. In practice, the designer can increase or decrease the number of trailers according to demand, and correspondingly increase or decrease the number of switch units and integrated network node units.

[0077] Please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of the trailer network control method of the present invention. Figure 5 As shown, a novel trailer network control method of a power-concentrated EMU of the present invention comprises:

[0078] Data collection step S1: receiving and summarizing the subsystem network data of the carriage where the integrated network node unit is located;

[0079] Data hierarchical transmission step S2: hierarchically transmitting the subsystem network data to the switch unit according to preset conditions through the integrated network node unit;

[0080] Data monitoring step S3: receiving the subsystem network data output by the switch unit through the monitoring terminal, and aggregating the subsystem network data through the monitoring terminal and outputting it to the train-level host to complete the train-level communication.

[0081] Wherein, the data collection step S1 includes:

[0082] Collect the subsystem network data of the power supply system in the carriage, the carriage monitoring screen and the power supply device under the carriage through the control board communication module;

[0083] Collect the subsystem network data of the axle temperature system of the compartment through the first subsystem communication module, or collect the subsystem network data of the axle temperature system and the insulation detection system through the first subsystem communication module;

[0084] Collecting the subsystem network data of the anti-skid device and the pyrotechnic system of the carriage through the second subsystem communication module;

[0085] The subsystem network data of the sliding door in the carriage is collected through the third subsystem communication module.

[0086] Furthermore, the data hierarchical transmission step S2 includes:

[0087] By means of the subsystem network data processing module, a mark is set for each of the subsystem network data according to a preset condition, and all the subsystem network data are sorted according to the mark and then output;

[0088] Among them, the mark includes a type mark and a time mark, and the preset conditions include: setting the subsystem network data that affects driving safety to a Class A mark, setting the monitoring data to a Class B mark, and setting the communication node monitoring data of other trailers to a Class C mark. The subsystem network data processing module sorts all the subsystem network data according to the Class A mark, Class B mark, Class C mark and time mark and outputs them.

[0089] Furthermore, the data monitoring step S3 also includes:

[0090] The passenger information control unit receives the attribute information of the integrated network node unit and the monitoring terminal and maintains the global network node index information. When the monitoring terminal fails, the passenger information control unit receives the subsystem network data through the switch unit and outputs it to the train-level host to complete the train-level communication; and

[0091] Each of the integrated network node units receives attribute information of other integrated network node units, the passenger information control unit and the monitoring terminal and maintains global network node index information. When the monitoring terminal and the passenger information control unit fail, a passenger information control unit is determined according to a preset priority to receive the subsystem network data through the switch unit and output it to the train-level host, thereby completing train-level communication.

[0092] In summary, the present invention reduces the number of network devices, eliminates the vehicle-level bus, improves the transmission rate of data transmission, makes data transmission more scientific and effective, and enables the trailer network to achieve redundant design of monitoring terminals through integrated network node units and passenger information control units when the equipment is not redundant, making network control more reliable and safe.
