BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0038] Figure 1 This is a flow chart of the multi-type access control method of the interlocking operating machine of this application. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0039] The following will be combined with the attached embodiment of the present invention Figure 1 , the technical solutions, structural features, objectives achieved and effects in the embodiments of the present invention are described in detail.

[0040] It should be noted that the drawings are in a very simplified form and use non-precise proportions. They are only used to conveniently and clearly assist in explaining the embodiments of the present invention, and are not used to limit the conditions for the implementation of the present invention. Therefore, they have no substantive technical significance. Any structural modification, change in proportional relationship or adjustment of size, without affecting the effects and purposes that can be achieved by the present invention, should still fall within the scope of the technical content disclosed by the present invention.

[0041] It should be noted that, in the present invention, relational terms such as first and second, etc. are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "include", "comprise" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only the elements explicitly listed, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device.

[0042] like Figure 1As shown, the present invention provides a method for controlling multiple types of routes of an interlocking operating machine. The interlocking operating machine includes a human-computer interaction module and a route management module. The route management module stores an route table, which contains all the driving route information, including possible route changes, as well as route elements, interlocking protection sections and side defense element areas. The route table of the present application also includes an identification list of route matchable types, and the identification list includes acceptable route types for the routes. The route types include one or more of train routes, shunting routes, guide routes, continuation routes, return routes, coupling routes and protection routes. In the identification list of route matchable types, the route types are identified by numerical values. If new route types need to be added later, they can be expanded as needed.

[0043] The interlocking operator is electrically connected to the interlocking lower computer. The existing interface code table between the interlocking operator and the interlocking lower computer includes an access processing control code and an access processed display code. The interface code table of the present application also includes an access type available display code. The access type available display code is used to indicate whether each access type of each access number can be processed. If the code is true, it means that the interlocking lower computer allows the processing after checking the access type specified for the access number; if the code is false, it means that the processing is not allowed. The access type available display code is added to the existing interface code table, and is sent to the interlocking operator every cycle by the interlocking lower computer according to the existing interface protocol, which has high real-time performance.

[0044] The multi-type access control method of the interlocking operating machine includes the following steps:

[0045] S10, the human-computer interaction module obtains the selected route start signal device and route type. In this embodiment, step S10 includes S101, the operator selects the route type and the route start signal device respectively. In the actual operation process, in order to be closer to the control mode of the existing route control software, the operator can be set to select the route type and the route start signal device in sequence with the left mouse button. In other embodiments, the operator can also select the route start signal device, and the operator selects the route type on the route start signal device; or the automatic dispatching system sends the route type and the route start signal device to the human-computer interaction module.

[0046] S20. The human-computer interaction module sends the selected route type and route start signal device to the route management module. The route management module traverses the matching routes in the route table starting from the route start signal device.

[0047] S30. The route management module checks the route type display code position of the matching route corresponding to the route type. If the route type display code position is true, the matching route is added to the list of terminal signal buttons that can be handled; if the route type display code position is false, it is not added.

[0048] S40, calculate the total number of matching routes in the list of available terminal signal buttons, if the total number of matching routes is greater than zero, upload the list of available terminal signal buttons to the human-computer interaction module, and flash the buttons corresponding to the route terminal signal devices that can be used to process the routes on the human-computer interaction interface, prompting the operator to choose to process. If the total number of matching routes is zero, prompt the operator that "the route starting with this route signal device cannot be processed at present" and end the program.

[0049] S50, the route management module determines the route path. In this embodiment, step S50 includes S501, the operator selects the route terminal signal device. The operator selects the route terminal signal device within the timeout period, and after receiving the operator's instruction, the human-machine operation module sends the route processing information to the route management module and proceeds to the next step S502. If the route terminal signal device that the operator expects to handle is not contained, or the operator does not select the route terminal signal device within the timeout period, then wait for the automatic clear button to flash after the timeout, or click the "command clear" button and end the program. S502, the route management module determines the route path according to the route starting signal device, the route terminal signal device and the route type. In other embodiments, there are other implementation methods, such as the operator selecting the route type, and then the route management module determines the route path according to the route type; it can also be to determine the route sequence number and send the route sequence number to the route management module, and the route management module determines the route path according to the route sequence number.

[0050] In this embodiment, after step S502, step S51 is also included, and the route management module queries the route type display code position of the path corresponding to the route path information. If the route type display code position is true, the process enters S60 and sends a prompt message to the human-computer interaction module: "The route is being processed"; if the route type display code position is false, the operator is prompted that "the route starting with the route starting signal device cannot be processed at present", and the program ends.

[0051] S60, the route management module issues a switch command according to the route path information. The route management module issues switch commands for driving switches, protection switches and approach switches in the order of route table information. In this embodiment, after issuing the switch command in step S60, it also includes step S61, the route management module detects whether the protection switch and the approach switch are rotated into place. If the protection switch and the approach switch have been rotated into place, it is determined that the switch has been moved successfully and enters S70; if any protection switch or approach switch has not been rotated into place within the specified time, it is determined that the switch has failed, the detection process ends, and the operator is prompted that "the route cannot be processed at present" and the program ends.

[0052] S70. The route management module queries the route handling control code according to the route type and sends it to the interlocking lower computer.

[0053] S80. The interlocking operating machine determines the processing result based on the received access type completed display code. If the access type completed display code is false, the access processing is determined to have failed, and the operator is prompted that "the access cannot be processed at present" and the program ends; if the access type completed display code is true, the access processing is determined to have been successful, and the operator is prompted that "the access processing is successful". Based on actual usage needs, the mark with the access type is displayed to the operator next to the signal at the beginning of the route and the program ends.

[0054] In addition, when the route that has been processed is cancelled due to manual release or normal cross-pressure of the train, the lower interlocking machine will set the route type processed display code to false, and send the route type processed display code to the interlocking operator. After receiving the information, the interlocking operator ends the ongoing route tracking process in the route management module of the interlocking operator, and clears the route mark display next to the route start signal device according to the actual needs of the operator.

[0055] The multi-type route control method for the interlocking operating machine of the present application does not need to make major modifications to the overall framework of the control method when a new route type appears, thus saving the cost of change. When the multi-type route control method for the interlocking operating machine is applied to a new field, resulting in the original route management check logic not being used, the software does not need to be adaptively modified, thus saving the cost of change. In addition, in the present application, the interlocking operating machine uses the route-accessible display code position method, and uses the same route-accessible check logic as the interlocking lower machine, so there will be no functional defects caused by inconsistent logic implementation, and the interlocking operating machine uses the route-accessible display code position method, so there is no need for data configuration information related to the route-accessible check, thus saving the cost of making, reviewing and verifying the data configuration information, and reducing the risk of inconsistency with the data configuration information of the interlocking lower machine.

[0056] In order to better understand the multi-type access control method of the interlocking operating machine of the present application, the present application is further explained below using a specific scenario.

[0057] Taking the example of an operator handling the linked route S0101-S0103, the route type is represented as a linked route (assumed to be 0x5), the route starting signal is S0101, the route terminal signal is S0103, and the route name is S0101-S0103.

[0058] The operator uses the left mouse button to click "Processing of interlocking routes" and "S0101 signal button" in sequence on the interlocking operating machine, indicating that the interlocking routes to be processed this time are interlocking routes, and the starting signal is "S0101 signal".

[0059] The human-computer interaction module transmits the information that the linked route operation starting with the S0101 signal is available to the route management module. The route management module traverses all routes starting with S0101 in the route table, and the route matching type identification list contains 0x5. Routes S0101-S0103 can be matched successfully, and then the display code position of the linked route is checked. Assuming it is true at this time, S0103 is added to the list of available terminal signal buttons. Assuming that only routes S0101-S0103 meet the requirements in the route table, the total number of buttons in the list of available terminal signal buttons is 1, and the S0103 signal button flashes on the interface to prompt the operator that they can choose to handle it.

[0060] The operator continues to click the "S0103 signal button" within the timeout period to send the information for processing the linked routes S0101-S0103 to the route management module.

[0061] The route management module receives the information of handling the designated linked route S0101-S0103, and queries the linked route display code of route S0101-S0103 again. Assuming it is true at this time, it enters the linked route handling tracking logic and prompts the operator that "linked route S0101-S0103 is being handled".

[0062] The route management module first follows the route tracking general logic, and issues the command of driving turnout, protection turnout and route turnout according to the preset information sequence of S0101-S0103 in the route table. If all protection turnouts and route turnouts are turned to the expected position within the specified time, the turnout is considered to be successful.

[0063] The access management module follows the unique logic of access handling tracking, queries the access handling control code bits of access S0101-S0103 according to the access type identifier 0x5, encapsulates the message and sends it to the interlocking lower computer, waiting to receive the display code bit information that the access has been handled.

[0064] Assuming that the linked route S0101-S0103 sent by the interlocking lower computer within the specified time is true, the processing is deemed successful, and the operator is prompted that "the linked route S0101-S0103 is processed successfully". According to actual needs, the linked route mark is displayed to the operator next to the signal S0101, and the program ends.

[0065] Example 2

[0066] The same parts as those in Example 1 will not be repeated in this Example 2, and only the different parts will be described. In Example 2, in step S10, the human-computer interaction module obtains the selected route start signal device and route type, including S101', the operator selects the route start signal device; S102', the operator selects the route name on the route start signal device. In order to be closer to the control mode of the existing route control software, the operator can be set to select the route start signal device and the route type in sequence with the right button of the mouse. Specifically, the operator uses the right button of the mouse to select the motor route start signal device on the interlocking operating machine, and selects the route processing according to the required route type in the pop-up menu list.

[0067] In addition, different from Example 1, step S50 of Example 2, determining the route path and sending the route path information to the route management module, includes S501', the operator confirms the route name; S502', the route management module determines the route path according to the route name.

[0068] In Example 2, the specific example scenarios involved in Example 1 are further described in detail. The operator right-clicks S0101 on the interlocking operation machine and selects and clicks the "joint access route processing" menu item in the pop-up menu list.

[0069] The interlocking operation machine reads the linked route type identifier 0x5, and passes the query information of the linked route operation starting with S0101 to the route management module. The route management module traverses all routes in the route table starting with S0101 and whose route matching type identifier list contains 0x5. Routes S0101-S0103 can be matched successfully, and then the linked route display code is checked. Assuming it is true at this time, S0101-S0103 is added to the list of accessible routes. Assuming that only routes S0101-S0103 meet the requirements in the route table, the "Linked Route Processing" dialog box pops up. In the dialog box, routes S0101-S0103 are displayed, prompting the operator to choose to process.

[0070] The operator selects the route S0101-S0103 within the timeout period, clicks the "Confirm" button, and sends the route management module the information for processing the linked route S0101-S0103. The subsequent steps are the same as those in Example 1 and will not be repeated here.

[0071] Example 3

[0072] The same parts as those in Example 1 will not be repeated in this Example 2, and only the different parts will be described. In Example 2, in step S10, the human-computer interaction module obtains the selected route starting signal device and route type, including S101". The interlocking operating machine is also electrically connected to the automatic dispatching system. The operator selects the route type and the route starting signal device on the automatic dispatching system, and the automatic dispatching system sends the route type and the route starting signal device to the route management module. In this embodiment, the route mode of the train is controlled by the upper external system of the interlocking operating machine (such as an automatic train monitoring system, a centralized dispatching system, etc.), and a route type field is added to the route handling related message interface between the interlocking operating machine and the upper external system. The route type field matches the route type identifier in the route table.

[0073] In addition, different from Example 1, step S50 of Example 3, the route management module determines the route path, including S501", the automatic scheduling system determines the route number and sends the route number to the route management module, S502": the route management module determines the route path according to the route number.

[0074] In Example 3, after step S80, when the route processing is completed, the interlocking operating machine encapsulates the route processing completion message to the external system, and the program ends.

[0075] In Example 3, the specific example scenarios involved in Example 1 are further described. The external system sends a query S0101 available route interface message, which contains the connection route type identification information 0x5

[0076] The query is passed to the route management module for the information on the operability of the linked route operation starting with S0101. The route management module traverses all routes in the route table starting with S0101 and whose route matching type identification list contains 0x5. Routes S0101-S0103 can be matched successfully, and then the linked route operability display code is checked. Assuming that it is true at this time, routes S0101-S0103 are added to the operable route list. Assuming that only routes S0101-S0103 meet the requirements in the route table, the interlocking operation machine encapsulates the operable route list message, including the linked route type identification information 0x5, the total number of routes in the operable route list is 1, and the interface serial number of routes S0101-S0103. The interlocking operation machine sends the operable route list message to the external system.

[0077] The external system identifies the route type identification information as a linked route. The total number of routes in the current available route list is 1, and the specific routes are S0101-S0103. According to the automatic route trigger plan or the operator's operation, routes S0101-S0103 are selected. The route handling message is packaged and sent to the interlocking operation machine. The subsequent steps are the same as in Example 1 and will not be repeated here.

[0078] Although the content of the present invention has been described in detail through the above preferred embodiments, it should be appreciated that the above description should not be considered as a limitation of the present invention. After reading the above content, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and substitutions of the present invention will occur.
