Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of railway signal technology, and in particular to a self-access mode operation method, device and medium. Background Art

[0002] The railway signal dispatching centralized (CTC) system is the basic equipment for my country's railways to ensure driving safety and improve transportation efficiency. It is responsible for supervising and controlling the operation of trains, assisting train dispatchers in managing the trains on the entire line, and is the core of the orderly and efficient operation of the entire railway system. For example, the widely used decentralized autonomous dispatching centralized system (Fzk centralized traffic control system, Fzk-CTC) is one of the CTC systems. It integrates computer technology, modern control technology and network communication technology, and fully considers the actual situation of mixed passenger and freight running, trains and shunting operations in China's railways. Based on the "decentralized autonomy" theory, it conducts comprehensive command and management of trains and shunting operations within the jurisdiction section, and realizes centralized control of railway signals through signal equipment such as interlocking, train control, and section blocking. It is an important driving equipment and command center for railway transportation.

[0003] There are often trains passing through the intermediate stations in the automatic block section. In order to simplify the procedures and improve the working efficiency, the station entry signal and the main line exit signal should be automatically changed with the operation of the train, without the need to handle the passing route every time. When passing automatically, the relevant station entry signal and main line exit signal are equivalent to the section passing signal, and the switches on the route are locked. This route arrangement mode is called the automatic passing route mode, also known as the automatic route mode.

[0004] In China, there is no automatic access function in the national railway. When the train enters the access, the signal is turned off, and when the train clears the access, the access is unlocked. In recent years, my country's CTC system is gradually going overseas.

[0057] The following is a further detailed description of a self-access mode operation method, device and medium proposed in the present invention in combination with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. According to the following description, the advantages and features of the present invention will become clearer. It should be noted that the accompanying drawings are in a very simplified form and use non-precise proportions. They are only used to conveniently and clearly assist in explaining the purpose of the implementation method of the present invention, and are not used to limit the limiting conditions for the implementation of the present invention. Therefore, they have no technical substantive significance. Any structural modification, change in proportional relationship or adjustment of size should still fall within the scope of the technical content disclosed by the present invention without affecting the efficacy and purpose that can be achieved by the present invention.

[0058] It should be noted that, in the present invention, relational terms such as and are used only 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.

[0059] Combined with Figures 1 to 4 The present invention provides an automatic route mode operation method, device and medium for realizing the judgment of whether each entry and exit signal (hereinafter referred to as signal) has the automatic route mode function in the CTC system, and setting or canceling the automatic route mode of each signal.

[0060] Attached Figure 1 The structural block diagram of the self-access mode operating device provided by the present invention is shown, and the device includes: an autonomous machine communicating with an interlocking (not shown), a control and display terminal for human-computer interaction, and a central communication server for information exchange between the autonomous machine and the control and display terminal; wherein the control and display terminal and the central communication server, as well as the central communication server and the autonomous machine are connected through a CTC production network, and the interlocking can control each signal machine and the access status. The self-access mode operating device of the present invention is a component of the CTC system, which is based on the autonomous machine, control and display terminal and central communication server of the CTC system of the prior art, and only the existing software of the control and display terminal and the autonomous machine is upgraded, without the need for new equipment and hardware changes, and the upgrade is simple and easy to implement, with low cost and high reliability, and has strong practicality and economic value.

[0061] In the prior art, the CTC system and the interlocking use interface code bits to transmit station representation information and control instructions. The interface code bits are input into the CTC station map data. When the CTC system is initialized, the CTC station map data is loaded into the autonomous machine to support the processing of station representation information and control instructions, and the CTC station map data is loaded into the control and display terminal to support station map display and human-computer interaction. The interface code bits include two types: representation code bits and control code bits. The representation code bits and control code bits of each station are not repeated. Both the representation code bits and control code bits are used to point to a certain state of a certain station equipment element of the station. Among them, the representation code bit is used for the interlocking to transmit the station representation information to the CTC system. The interlocking sends the station representation information composed of the status value (value 0 or 1) + the representation code bit to the autonomous machine, and reports to the CTC system whether a certain state of a certain station equipment element pointed to by the representation code bit is valid or invalid; the control code bit is used by the CTC system to transmit the control instruction to the interlocking. The autonomous machine sends the control instruction composed of the control code bit + the operation type code to the interlocking, and notifies the interlocking to perform corresponding operations on a certain state of a certain station equipment element pointed to by the control code bit.

[0062] The present invention adds a self-opening representation code position and a self-opening control code position pointing to the self-opening route mode of the signal machine in the interface code position of the CTC station field diagram data. Specifically, in the process of making the CTC station field diagram data, each signal machine with the self-opening route mode function is input with its own self-opening representation code position and self-opening control code position, so that the type of the signal machine (whether it has the self-opening route mode function) can be determined in the CTC system, and the expression of the signal machine mode state (whether the self-opening route mode is in the open or closed state) can be realized between the CTC system-interlocking interface, and the transmission of the self-opening route mode operation command (opening or closing the self-opening route mode) and the execution result (whether the opening or closing of the self-opening route mode is successful) can be realized.

[0063] Furthermore, the present invention adds an automatic function identifier and an automatic mode identifier of each signal in the CTC system. The automatic function identifier is used to identify whether the signal has an automatic route mode function, and the automatic mode identifier is used to identify whether the current automatic route mode of the signal is on or off.

[0064] And, modify the autonomous machine software so that the autonomous machine of the present invention can judge whether each signal has the function of the self-opening route mode based on whether each signal in the station diagram data has the self-opening representation code, assign a corresponding value to the self-opening function identifier of each signal, and send it to the control and display terminal for display; and, receive the control instruction for setting or canceling the self-opening route mode sent by the control and display terminal and forward it to the interlocking, so that the interlocking can execute the setting or canceling operation of the self-opening route mode of the specified signal; and, receive the station representation information of the execution result returned by the interlocking, assign a corresponding value to the self-opening mode identifier of the corresponding signal, and forward it to the control and display terminal for display. Wherein, the communication between the above-mentioned autonomous machine and the control and display terminal is carried out through the central communication server.

[0065] Also, modify the control and display terminal software so that the control and display terminal of the present invention can display the signal machine with the self-circulating route mode function on the interface and provide a human-machine operation interface according to the received self-circulating function identifier; and, according to the manual operation of the human-machine operation interface, send a control instruction for setting or canceling the self-circulating route mode to the autonomous machine; and, according to the self-circulating mode identifier sent by the autonomous machine, display the current self-circulating route mode switch state of the signal machine with the self-circulating route mode function on the interface. Preferably, the control and display terminal software of this embodiment adopts a hierarchical structure, which is divided into a logic layer and a presentation layer; wherein the logic layer is responsible for the station field representation information conversion processing and the control operation command issuance and receipt receipt of the control and display terminal; the presentation layer is responsible for the specific display of the station field equipment elements. The hierarchical structure can support the personalized customization of the station field equipment element style and display mode, which is more flexible and can adapt to the display requirements of overseas projects in different countries and regions.

[0066] Among them, the self-communication representation code bit and self-communication control code bit added by the present invention, as well as the self-communication function identifier and the self-communication mode identifier, can be in different forms according to different CTC systems. For example, the Fzk-CTC system of the prior art transmits the state of the equipment between the autonomous machine and the control and display terminal through the equipment state value composed of the equipment state bit. The Fzk-CTC system maintains an equipment state definition table inside, and the equipment state definition table is used to define the various states of each station field equipment element represented by each equipment state bit (value 0 or 1) of the equipment state value. When the Fzk-CTC system is initialized, the equipment state definition table is also loaded on the autonomous machine and the control and display terminal. After the autonomous machine receives the station field representation information from the self-interlocking, it converts it into the equipment state value of the station field equipment element composed of the corresponding equipment state bit according to the equipment state definition table and sends it to the control and display terminal. The control and display terminal then reversely parses the equipment state value according to the equipment state definition table and displays it on the interface. Therefore, in the embodiment of the Fzk-CTC system, the present invention specifically sets the self-communication function identifier and the self-communication mode identifier to the form of the device status bit with the value of 0 or 1, and at the same time adds the definition of the self-communication function identifier and the self-communication mode identifier to each signal in the device status definition table. The autonomous machine determines the type of signal (whether it has the self-communication route mode function) according to whether the signal in the station diagram data has the self-communication representation code bit input, converts it into the corresponding device status value of the self-communication function identifier according to the device status definition table and sends it to the control and display terminal, and the control and display terminal then reversely parses the device status value according to the device status definition table and displays it on the interface; after the autonomous machine receives the station representation information of a certain signal from the self-interlocking, it converts it into the corresponding device status value of the self-communication mode identifier according to the device status definition table and sends it to the control and display terminal, and the control and display terminal then reversely parses the device status value according to the device status definition table and displays it on the interface.

[0067] Further, attached Figures 2 to 4 The flowchart of the self-access mode operation method of the present invention is shown, and the method is implemented based on the self-access mode operation device of the present invention; as shown in the attached Figure 2 As shown, it includes the steps of:

[0068] S1. Before the first use, for each signal with the automatic route mode function, enter a one-to-one corresponding automatic route indication code position and a one-to-one corresponding automatic route control code position in the CTC system station diagram data; wherein, the automatic route indication code position is used to point to the automatic route mode of the corresponding signal when the interlocking transmits the station indication information to the CTC system; the automatic route control code position is used to point to the automatic route mode of the corresponding signal when the CTC system transmits the control instruction to the interlocking.

[0069] In an embodiment of the Fzk-CTC system, before the first use, the definition of the self-connecting function identifier and the self-connecting mode identifier shall be added to each signal in the equipment status definition table; wherein, the self-connecting function identifier is used to identify whether the signal has the self-connecting route mode function, and the self-connecting mode identifier is used to identify whether the current self-connecting route mode of the signal is in the on or off state.

[0070] S2. The CTC system reads each pass indication code position, displays the signal machine pointed to by each pass indication code position as a signal machine with a self-passing route mode function on the interface, and provides a human-machine operation interface for the self-passing route mode; comprising the steps of:

[0071] S21, when the autonomous machine and the control and display terminal are initialized, the CTC station map data is loaded, and the autonomous machine sets the corresponding automatic function mark and automatic mode mark for each signal;

[0072] In the embodiment of the Fzk-CTC system, the device state definition table is also loaded when the autonomous machine and the control and display terminal are initialized;

[0073] S22, the autonomous machine determines whether each signal has the function of the automatic route mode and assigns a corresponding value to its automatic function identifier based on the respective communication indication code position, and sends the respective communication function identifier to the control and display terminal; specifically,

[0074] The autonomous machine traverses and checks each signal machine. For each signal machine checked, if the signal machine has an automatic communication code position input, the autonomous machine determines that the signal machine has the automatic communication mode function, and assigns the automatic communication function flag of the signal machine to be yes; otherwise, the autonomous machine determines that the signal machine does not have the automatic communication mode function, and assigns the automatic communication function flag of the signal machine to be no. After the assignment, the autonomous machine sends the automatic communication function flag of the signal machine to the control and display terminal.

[0075] In the embodiment of the Fzk-CTC system, the autonomous machine assigns a value to the self-communication function identifier according to the definition of the device state definition table, and assigns a corresponding value to the device state bit where the self-communication function identifier is located.

[0076] S23. The control and display terminal makes judgments based on the received function identifiers of each communication, marks the signal lights with the self-communication mode function on the interface, and provides a human-machine operation interface for setting / cancelling the self-communication mode for the signal lights; the signal lights without the self-communication mode function are not marked on the interface.

[0077] S3. Manually set or cancel the automatic route mode operation for the signal machine with the automatic route mode function through the human-machine operation interface. The CTC system sends the corresponding automatic control code position and the operation type code for setting the automatic route mode to the interlocking to form a control instruction, and perform the corresponding specified operation on the designated signal machine; after the interlocking is executed, the station field indication information pointing to the status value + the automatic route indication code position is returned to the execution result of the designated signal machine, and the CTC system displays the current status of the automatic route mode of the designated signal machine. It includes a method for setting the automatic route mode and a method for canceling the automatic route mode. Specifically,

[0078] As attached Figure 3 As shown, the method for setting the self-access mode includes the steps of:

[0079] Z1. Manually set the automatic route mode for a signal machine on the interface of the control and display terminal.

[0080] Z2. The control and display terminal determines whether the signal is currently in the automatic access mode on state based on the automatic access mode identification of the signal (the initial state is the closed state). If so, exit; otherwise, enter step Z3.

[0081] Z3. The control and display terminal sends the instruction for setting the automatic route mode of the signal to the autonomous machine. The autonomous machine combines the control code corresponding to the signal + the operation type code for setting the automatic route mode into a control instruction and sends it to the interlocking for execution.

[0082] Z4: The autonomous machine receives the station indication information (i.e., the execution result) of the signal machine returned by the interlocking, and determines whether the execution is successful. If it fails, it exits; otherwise, it executes step Z5. Specifically,

[0083] The autonomous machine receives the station field representation information consisting of the status value + automatic communication representation code returned by the interlocking through the existing interface between the CTC system and the interlocking, and determines whether the automatic communication route mode is set successfully based on its status value. If the setting is unsuccessful, it exits; otherwise, executes step Z5.

[0084] Z5. The autonomous machine assigns the automatic mode flag of the signal to be yes and sends it to the control and display terminal. The control and display terminal marks the signal as being in the automatic route mode on the interface.

[0085] In the embodiment of the Fzk-CTC system, the autonomous machine assigns a value to the self-communication mode identifier according to the definition of the device status definition table, and assigns a corresponding value to the device status bit where the self-communication mode identifier is located.

[0086] As attached Figure 4 As shown, the method for canceling the self-access route mode includes the steps of:

[0087] Q1. Manually cancel the automatic route mode of a signal machine on the interface of the control and display terminal.

[0088] Q2. The control and display terminal determines whether the signal is currently in the closed state of the automatic access mode based on the automatic access mode identification of the signal (the initial state is the closed state). If so, exit; otherwise, enter step Q3.

[0089] Q3. The control and display terminal sends the instruction to cancel the automatic route mode of the signal to the autonomous machine. The autonomous machine combines the control code corresponding to the signal + the operation type code for canceling the automatic route mode into a control instruction and sends it to the interlocking for execution.

[0090] Q4: The autonomous machine receives the station indication information (i.e., the execution result) of the signal machine returned by the interlocking, and determines whether the execution is successful. If it fails, it exits; otherwise, it executes step Q5. Specifically,

[0091] The autonomous machine receives the station field representation information consisting of the status value + automatic communication representation code returned by the interlocking through the existing interface between the CTC system and the interlocking, and determines whether the automatic communication route mode is cancelled successfully based on its status value. If the cancellation is unsuccessful, it exits; otherwise, executes step Z5.

[0092] Q5. The autonomous machine assigns the automatic mode flag to "no" and sends it to the control and display terminal. The control and display terminal marks the signal machine as not being in the automatic route mode on the interface.

[0093] In the embodiment of the Fzk-CTC system, the autonomous machine assigns a value to the self-communication mode identifier according to the definition of the device status definition table, and assigns a corresponding value to the device status bit where the self-communication mode identifier is located.
