TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of relay detection, in particular to a detection device and method for vibration resistance of an electromagnetic relay for a rolling stock. BACKGROUND
[0002] The vibration and impact generated in the normal operation of the rolling stock mainly come from two aspects: one is the longitudinal impact generated by the difference between the traction force and the braking force of the adjacent two vehicles; the second is the vertical vibration caused by the wheel-rail acting on the wheel and the bogie nodding, which will affect the vehicle equipment. As a key signal controller on the vehicle, the electromagnetic relay will cause the train control equipment to be affected and interfere with the normal operation of the train if the contact instantaneously breaks, so the vibration resistance performance of the electromagnetic relay, i.e. the vibration resistance, is a very important technical index, which directly determines the contact reliability of the product under external vibration load.
[0003] At present, the verification of the vibration resistance of the electromagnetic relay for the rolling stock mainly relies on the vibration impact test, but the vibration impact test has the limitations of less number of times, less quantity and long time consumption, and it is difficult to realize the piece-by-piece inspection of the relay. The number of times is less, i.e. the vibration impact test belongs to type test, which is generally carried out when the design, process, production equipment, etc. are changed, and is not included in the scope of routine inspection. Secondly, the sample quantity is sampled according to the proportion, and it is impossible to realize the mass inspection. The time consumption is long, i.e. the vibration impact test needs to be carried out on the test bench, and the contact breaking state of the relay is monitored at the same time, and the test time is generally 3h~4h, so the test time consumption is long. Based on the limitations of the vibration resistance inspection of the electromagnetic relay for the rolling stock, it is difficult to ensure the consistency and reliability of the product batch quality.

[0040] Specifically, the platform 6 is n-shaped, and a square slot hole 6-1 is arranged on the top of the platform 6, and when the relay 5 is placed on the platform 6, the pressure adjusting screw 5-7 at the bottom of the relay 5 corresponds to the position of the square slot hole 6-1.

[0059] Measuring the contact pressure of the limit stop 5-1 and the armature 5-3 can be used to judge the theoretical rationality of the relay vibration resistance performance, which is proved as follows:
[0060] (1) Simplified model of relay
[0061] The relay system includes two states, namely the attracted state and the released state. The vibration resistance performance of the relay in the attracted state and the released state is different. Generally, the vibration resistance in the attracted state is better than that in the released state, and improving the vibration resistance of the relay mainly improves the vibration resistance in the released state. Taking a certain type of locomotive relay as an example, the system structure in the released state is shown in Figure 5 .
[0062] Figure 5In the relay system, the electromagnetic system includes the static yoke 5-4 and coil 5-10 part, the dynamic armature 5-3 and the reset spring 5-9. The contact system includes the relay 5 base and the moving contact 5-8 and the static contact 5-11. When the coil 5-10 is excited, the armature 5-3 is attracted under the electromagnetic force, so that the moving contact 5-8 is connected or disconnected with the static contact 5-11.
[0063] (2) System dynamics modeling
[0064] The static contact 5-11 and the reset spring 5-9 are elastic members, which can be regarded as a single degree of freedom spring-mass system. Since there is a limiting frame 5-1 in the system, the system balance state after the armature 5-3 contacts with the limiting frame 5-1 determines the vibration resistance performance of the system. Ignoring the system damping, the armature 5-3 is equivalent to a rigid body plane motion, and the vibration system is as shown in FIG. 5. Figure 6
[0065] Figure 6 In the vibration system shown in FIG. 5, F 1 is equivalent to the elastic force of the reset spring 5-9 on the armature 5-3, F 2 is equivalent to the elastic force of the pressure spring 5-6 on the armature 5-3, F 3 is equivalent to the elastic force of the static contact 5-11 on the armature 5-3, and the elastic coefficients are k 1, k 2 and k 3 respectively. The rigid body rotates around the hinge A , the center of mass is at D , and the gravity mg .
[0066] Assuming that the angle of rotation of the rigid body around the A point is , then according to the D'Alembert principle, the torque balance equation is:
[0067] (1)
[0068] According to the Taylor expansion formula, if , then formula (1) can be written as:
[0069] (2)
[0070] The general solution of the vibration differential equation is:
[0071] (3)
[0072] In the formula, ,
[0073] From equation (3) we have:
[0074] (4)
[0075] where: ωi represents the natural frequency of the mode shape; φi represents the initial phase angle; ei represents the mode shape vector independent of time t. t Substituting equations (3) and (4) into equation (2) we have:
[0076]
[0077] (5)
[0078] Assume:
[0079]
[0080] Then equation (5) can be written as
[0081] (6)
[0082] Equation (6) is called the characteristic equation of the vibration system, and its eigenvalues and eigenvectors correspond to the square of the natural frequency and the mode shape of the vibration, respectively.
[0083] From differential equation (2) we have the natural frequency of the system:
[0084] (7)
[0085] When the relay 5 is in the released state, assume that the pressure springs 5-6 are all in the stressed state, k 1、 k 2、 k 3 the deformation of the pressure springs 5-6 is respectively: 、 、 .
[0086] Assume are all less than , then 、 、 , the equilibrium moment equation of the rigid body is:
[0087] (8)
[0088] According to equation (8), equation (7) can be converted to:
[0089]
[0090] (9)
[0091] Therefore, the system is proportional to the contact pressure of the armature 5-3 and the limit frame 5-1 in the vertical self-vibration frequency, increasing the contact pressure helps to improve the vertical self-vibration frequency of the system, which is an effective means to predict the vibration resistance performance of the relay 5 system.
[0092] According to the device and method shown in the application, a relay 5 is selected, in which the contact position 5-2 between the limit frame 5-1 and the armature 5-3 does not separate when the contact pressure is 0.005 N; and a second relay 5 is selected, in which the contact position 5-2 between the limit frame 5-1 and the armature 5-3 does not separate when the contact pressure is 1 N.
[0093] According to the simulation long-life test conditions of the IEC 61373:1999 standard "Railway Rolling Stock Equipment Vibration and Impact Test", referring to the requirements of Class 1 B equipment, the frequency range is 5-150 Hz, and the excitation acceleration response spectrum curve is as shown in Figure 7 .
[0094] Under the random vibration environment, the displacement response (PSD) between the moving contact 5-8 and the static contact 5-11 is extracted, as shown in Figure 8 . According to the displacement response spectrum, when the contact pressure is 0.005 N, the relative displacement response amplitude between the moving contact and the static contact is significantly higher than when the contact pressure is 1 N, which indicates that increasing the contact pressure will reduce the response amplitude of random vibration.
[0095] Observe the making and breaking state between the moving contact 5-8 and the static contact 5-11, when the contact pressure is 0.005 N, the moving contact 5-8 and the static contact 5-11 separate, indicating that it does not pass the random vibration test; when the contact pressure is 1 N, the moving contact 5-8 and the static contact 5-11 do not separate, and the contact state is stable, indicating that it passes the random vibration test.
[0096] Therefore, testing the contact pressure between the armature 5-3 and the limit frame 5-1 can be used as a criterion for the vibration resistance performance of the relay 5 in the production process.
[0097] Although the embodiments of the application have been shown and described above, it should be understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the application, and those skilled in the art can make changes, modifications, replacements and variations to the above embodiments within the scope of the application.
