Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to a turnout switching equipment auxiliary system in the field of rail transit, and relates to a method for determining the fault mode of a switch machine operating rod switching jam. According to the parameters and status of the switch machine operating rod, the cause of the switch machine switching jam is determined, and maintenance personnel are guided to handle the problem. Background Art
[0002] The switch machine is used to switch and lock the turnout. When the switch machine's operating rod is stuck, its function of switching the turnout fails. In addition, statistics show that due to various reasons, the failure of the switch machine's operating rod to switch is stuck and the turnout cannot be switched accounts for a high proportion of turnout failures.
[0003] When the switch operating rod is stuck and cannot switch the switch, the train will not be able to pass through the switch as planned, thus delaying the operation. Usually, maintenance personnel need to deal with it urgently and temporarily to minimize delays, reduce economic losses and reduce social impact. However, since the switch is a remote-controlled device, when it gets stuck, the location of the jam is unknown, the cause of the jam is unknown, and it is even unknown whether it is a jam (the fault manifestation is only no positioning indication or no reverse position indication) or other faults that cause no positioning indication or reverse position indication. Therefore, when handling the fault, it is necessary to check each item one by one, which may make the fault handling take a long time. If it can be determined that the switch operating rod is stuck when the fault occurs, and the jam location can be clearly identified, and then a preliminary fault cause and solution are determined based on the fault mode, then the fault handling will save time and effort.
[0004] For the specific meanings of the characters and symbols described below, please refer to the description of the characters and symbols in the "Specific Implementation Method" section.
[0005] When the switch machine operating rod is extending or pulling in,
[0006] When ΔS≤δ, the switch machine is in the process of internal unlocking;
[0007] When δ<ΔS≤L 解 When the switch machine is in the process of unlocking the external locking drive;
[0008] When L 解 <ΔS≤LL 锁 When the switch machine is in the process of driving external locking and the movable part of the turnout is being converted;
[0009] When LL 锁 When <ΔS≤L-δ, the switch machine is in the process of driving external locking;
[0010] When L-δ<ΔS, the switch is in the locking process.
[0011] If the turnout is an internal locking system, there is no external locking unlocking and locking process, whether in the process of extending or pulling the operating rod of the switch machine,
[0012] When ΔS≤δ, the switch machine is in the process of internal unlocking;
[0013] When δ<ΔS≤L-δ, the switch machine is in the process of driving the movable part of the turnout to switch;
[0014] When L-δ<ΔS, the switch is in the locking process.
[0015] It can be seen that by accurately measuring the displacement of the switch machine's operating rod, combined with the specific structural parameters of the switch machine and the characteristic parameters of the turnout, the state of the switch machine can be judged according to the current stroke of the operating rod. Then, according to the state of the switch machine when the operating rod is stuck or blocked, combined with other information, the cause of the blocking of the operating rod can be analyzed and determined.
[0016] More specific reasons for the action rod conversion jam or stuck need to be refined based on the above. For example, the specific reasons why the conversion locking mechanism in the switch machine cannot be unlocked can be further divided into: severe wear or damage to the conversion locking mechanism, loss of power of the motor, etc. More detailed information is needed to clarify the specific cause of the fault.
[0017] Once the working status of the switch machine's operating rod when it is stuck or jammed is clear, or the fault mode is clear, the fault location can be determined and the repair and maintenance area can be identified. Combined with other information, the cause of the fault can be analyzed as soon as possible and the solution can be determined, which is conducive to maintenance personnel to quickly troubleshoot the fault and shorten the fault processing time. Summary of the Invention
[0018] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for determining the fault mode of a switch machine operating rod conversion jam, so as to identify the abnormal state of the switch machine operating rod conversion jam or stuck, and then determine the location and cause of the switch machine operating rod conversion jam or stuck, guide maintenance personnel to reach the fault location as early as possible, accurately handle the fault, and improve fault handling efficiency.
[0019] The technical solution of the present invention is to provide a method for determining a switch machine operating rod conversion jam fault mode, characterized in that: a switch machine motor, an active part of a conversion locking mechanism, and a switch machine operating rod are selected, respectively denoted as a motor, an active part, and an operating rod; the motor current I or rotation speed n, the active part speed (rotation speed) V, and the operating rod displacement S are monitored; a timer is used to count from the start of the switch machine conversion and record the switch machine conversion time t; the motor current I or rotation speed n and the active part speed (rotation speed) V are used to determine whether the switch machine is in an operating rod conversion jam or jam state; when the switch machine is in an operating rod conversion jam state, the operating rod displacement S is used to determine an operating rod jam fault mode, and an alarm message and maintenance guidance information are output; the switch machine conversion time t is used to determine whether an operating rod jam or conversion jam occurs during the switch machine conversion process.
[0020] The specific method for judging the fault mode of the switch machine operating rod conversion jam is as follows:
[0021] Follow the steps below to perform the main program for recording the status of the switch machine's operating rod switching jam and resistance parameters and judging the fault mode:
[0022] Step 1: Read I 阈, n 阈, t 阈1, t 阈2, V 阈 , the displacement variation distinction value C;
[0023] Step 2: Clear the timer and array D;
[0024] Step 3: Read in S, I, n, S 初 =S;
[0025] Step 4: When I>I 阈 or n>n 阈 When the switch machine starts to switch, the timer starts to count, j=1, D j =0, otherwise return to step 3;
[0026] Step 5: Read in S, V, I, n;
[0027] Step 6: ΔS=ABS(SS 初 );
[0028] Step 7: When V≤V 阈 And ΔS-D j ≥C, (C is the difference between the displacement changes. When it is less than C, no difference is made. For example, when C is 0.5mm, no processing is performed if the change does not exceed 0.5. If the difference needs to be adjusted, just modify this value), j=j+1, D j =ΔS, otherwise proceed to the next step;
[0029] Step 8: When I≤I 阈 and n≤n 阈 When the timer value t≥t 阈2 , the timer stops timing, k=j, otherwise, return to step five;
[0030] Step 9: If t≤t 阈1 , the conversion is normal, if t 阈1 <t<t 阈2 , if the conversion is stuck, execute the stuck position judgment subroutine; otherwise, if the conversion is blocked, execute the blocked position judgment subroutine;
[0031] Step 10: ΔS=0, k=0, return to step 2.
[0032] The stutter position determination subroutine is performed as follows:
[0033] Step 1: Read in the stroke parameter L of the action rod and the motion judgment constant δ;
[0034] Step 2: For all D 2≤j≤k j Check and determine the cause and location of the jam, and classify and count them. After checking all D j Then end the program;
[0035] If the switch machine is equipped with external locking turnout, read the external locking parameter L 解 and L 锁 ,
[0036] When D j When ≤δ, the switch machine has been stuck during the unlocking process;
[0037] When δ<D j ≤L 解 There was a jam during the process of the switch machine driving the external lock and unlock;
[0038] When L 解 <D j ≤LL 锁 When the switch machine drives the turnout during the conversion process, a jam occurred;
[0039] When LL 锁 <D j When ≤L-δ, the switch machine drives the external lock to lock and there is a jam;
[0040] When L-δ<D j When the switch machine was locked, it was jammed;
[0041] If the switch machine is equipped with an internal locking turnout,
[0042] When Dj When ≤δ, the switch machine has been stuck during the unlocking process;
[0043] When δ<D j When ≤L-δ, a jam occurred during the process of the switch machine driving the movable part of the turnout to switch (movement of the action rod);
[0044] When L-δ<D j There was a jam during the internal locking process of the switch machine.
[0045] The blocking position determination subroutine is performed as follows:
[0046] Step 1: Read in the stroke parameter L of the action rod and the motion judgment constant δ;
[0047] Step 2: Check the ΔS value to determine the cause and location of the jam;
[0048] If the switch machine is equipped with external locking turnout, read the external locking parameter L 解 and L 锁 ;
[0049] When ΔS≤δ, the switch machine is stuck during the unlocking process, and the program ends;
[0050] Otherwise, when δ<ΔS≤L 解 When the switch machine drives the external lock and unlock process, a jam occurs and the program ends;
[0051] When L 解 <ΔS≤LL 锁 When the switch machine drives the turnout during the conversion process, a jam occurs and the program ends;
[0052] When LL 锁 When <ΔS≤L-δ, the switch machine drives the external lock to lock and a jam occurs during the locking process, and the program ends;
[0053] When L-δ<ΔS, the switch machine is blocked during the internal locking process and the program ends;
[0054] If the switch machine is equipped with an internal locking turnout,
[0055] When ΔS≤δ, the switch machine is stuck during the unlocking process, and the program ends;
[0056] Otherwise, when δ<ΔS≤L-δ, a jam occurs during the process of the switch machine driving the movable part of the turnout to perform conversion (movement of the action rod), and the program ends.
[0057] When L-δ<ΔS, the switch machine is stuck during the internal locking process, and the program ends.
[0058] The advantages of the present invention are that after the switch machine starts switching, its switching time is timed. During the switching process, it is preliminarily determined whether its operating rod is stuck, and the stuck position is recorded in an array. After the switch machine is switched or the switching time exceeds a limit value, it is determined whether the switching process is stuck or whether the switching is blocked and cannot be completed based on the switching time. When the switch machine is stuck, the specific location where the jam occurs is determined based on the data in the stuck position recording array. When the switch machine is stuck, the switch machine operating rod switching jam failure mode is determined based on the final stop position of the switch machine operating rod or the stroke of the switching process. Ultimately, it helps maintenance personnel intervene in maintenance in a timely manner, prevents the occurrence of jam failures, and speeds up the location and handling of jam failures, thereby improving the reliability of the switch machine and reducing various impacts and losses caused by the switching jam of the switch machine operating rod.

Starting from the second element, the action rod strokes when a jam occurs during the action rod conversion process are recorded in sequence, and the absolute value of the difference between two adjacent elements is greater than C;
