[0029] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0030] This application provides a tamping pick for tamping the ballast track bed of ballasted railways. Figure 1 As shown, the tamping pick provided in this embodiment includes a tamping pick body 10 and a control system 20 disposed on the tamping pick body and connected to the electrical equipment of the tamping pick body. The tamping pick body includes a power system 11, a reduction mechanism 12, a drive mechanism 13, a vibration mechanism 14, and a shock absorption mechanism 15. The control system is used to control the corresponding components on the tamping pick body.

[0031] like Figure 2 As shown, the control system includes a controller 21 and buttons 22 and a remote communication module 23 connected to the controller. The controller is provided with a first serial input / output terminal 211, and the remote communication module is provided with a second serial input / output terminal 231. The first serial input / output terminal and the second serial input / output terminal are connected.

[0032] The button is connected to the controller and is used to output a power-on signal to the controller when the user presses it. After receiving the power-on signal, the controller controls the tamping pick to start while obtaining the device serial number of the device, and encrypts the device serial number using CRC encryption or other encryption methods. Then, the obtained encrypted device serial number is output to the remote communication module through the first serial input / output terminal.

[0033] In addition, while the tamping pick is working, the controller collects the working data of the tamping pick, encrypts the working data using CRC encryption or other encryption methods, and outputs the obtained encrypted working data to the remote communication module through the first serial input / output terminal.

[0034] Furthermore, the controller periodically outputs location information search commands to the remote communication module. Upon receiving the command, the remote communication module uses satellite positioning to determine the current location of the tamping pick, obtains the latest location information, and outputs this latest location information to the controller through the second serial input / output module. The controller, upon receiving the latest location information, encrypts it and outputs the encrypted location information to the remote communication module through the first serial input / output terminal.

[0035] The remote communication module is used to send encrypted information, such as encrypted device serial number, encrypted working data, and / or encrypted location information, to the central server 100 via wireless communication. Upon receiving the encrypted information, the central server decrypts it to obtain the device serial number, working data, and / or the latest location information. The central server stores the obtained device serial number and working data in a database and replaces the original location information with the latest location information, thus achieving real-time updates of the location information.

[0036] As can be seen from the above technical solution, this embodiment provides a tamping pick, including a tamping pick body and a control system electrically connected to the tamping pick body. The control system includes at least a controller, buttons, and a remote communication module. The buttons are used to output a power-on signal to the controller; the controller, upon receiving the power-on signal, outputs an encrypted device serial number and encrypted working data to the remote communication module, and also periodically outputs location information search instructions to the remote communication module; when the remote communication module receives the location information search instruction, it outputs the latest location information to the controller, which encrypts it and outputs the obtained encrypted location information to the remote communication module; the remote communication module sends the encrypted device serial number, encrypted working data, and / or encrypted location information to a central server so that the central server stores them in its database. This solution's automatic recording avoids the problem of equipment loss due to missed recordings.

[0037] The remote communication module is also used to receive encrypted operation instructions sent by the central server based on the specified device serial number. The remote communication module sends the encrypted operation instructions to the controller through the second serial input / output terminal. The controller decrypts the encrypted operation instructions to obtain the corresponding operation instructions, so that the controller controls the tamping pick to perform position query, sounding bell, card number query, working time query, or stop the equipment.

[0038] like Figure 3 As shown, the remote communication module in this embodiment specifically includes a processor 232, a satellite positioning unit 233, and a mobile communication unit 234. The processor is connected to the second serial input / output terminal, the satellite positioning unit, and the mobile communication unit, respectively. The processor can be implemented using a microcontroller and is used to receive the encryption device serial number and encryption working data from the second serial input / output terminal, and control the mobile communication unit to send the encryption device serial number and encryption working data to the central server.

[0039] The processor is also used to control the satellite positioning unit to perform positioning operations based on the location information lookup command, and to send the latest location information obtained by the satellite positioning unit to the controller. It is also used to send the encrypted location information encrypted by the controller to the mobile communication unit. The mobile communication unit is also used to send the encrypted location information to the central server, and the central server decrypts it to obtain the latest location information.

[0040] In addition, such as Figure 4 As shown, the control system also includes a power management module 24 and a battery 25. The power management module is connected to the battery and the controller, respectively. The battery is also connected to the drive motor of the tamping pick to supply power to the power management module and the drive motor.

[0041] In addition, such as Figure 5 As shown, the control system also includes a buzzer 26 and a display screen 27, both connected to the controller. The buzzer is used to sound the alarm for the tamping pick; the display screen is used to display work data, the latest location information, and maintenance information sent by the central server.

[0042] Also, such as Figure 6 As shown, the control system in this embodiment also includes a remote control receiving module 28. This module is connected to the controller and is used to receive remote stop commands issued by the management personnel via a remote control, and output the remote stop commands to the controller so that the controller can force the tamping pick to stop. When working with a handheld lithium-ion tamping pick, if a train passes by in either direction and immediate evacuation is required, the lookout can remotely press the remote control to alert the workers to evacuate immediately; this function can alert workers who are distracted by noise and unable to notice the approaching danger.

[0043] In addition, such as Figure 7 As shown, this embodiment provides a central server for sending the latest location information and work data to the mobile terminal 200 of the management personnel. The mobile terminal includes, but is not limited to, mobile phones and tablets, which can access all the work information of all tamping picks belonging to the account name stored on the central server at any time, refresh and access the work information of all tamping picks stored on the central server and the location information of lithium-ion tamping picks with specified serial numbers in real time, and display them on the map by punctuation.

[0044] Secondly, users can also generate a specified action command for a device with a certain serial number by clicking or selecting. This command is encrypted by the mobile terminal and sent to the central server. After receiving and decrypting the encrypted command, the central server analyzes the lithium battery tamping pick with the specified serial number in the data and the specified action. Then, it selects the tamping pick with the corresponding device serial number and sends the CRC-encrypted command.
