[0034] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, it should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and are not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure. In the detailed description below, for ease of explanation, many specific details are set forth to provide a comprehensive understanding of the embodiments of the present disclosure. However, it is apparent that one or more embodiments may also be implemented without these specific details. In addition, in the following description, descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted to avoid unnecessary confusion of the concepts of the present disclosure.

[0035] The terms used herein are only for describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present disclosure. The terms "comprise," "include," etc. used herein indicate the presence of the features, steps, operations, and / or components, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, steps, operations, or components.

[0036] All terms used herein (including technical and scientific terms) have the meanings commonly understood by those skilled in the art unless otherwise defined. It should be noted that the terms used herein should be interpreted as having a meaning consistent with the context of this specification and should not be interpreted in an idealized or overly rigid manner.

[0037] When expressions such as "at least one of A, B, and C, etc." are used, they should generally be interpreted in accordance with the meaning commonly understood by those skilled in the art (for example, "a system having at least one of A, B, and C" should include but is not limited to a system having A alone, B alone, C alone, A and B, A and C, B and C, and / or A, B, C, etc.).

[0038] In the technical solutions disclosed herein, the user information (including but not limited to user personal information, user image information, user device information, such as location information, etc.) and data (including but not limited to data used for analysis, stored data, displayed data, etc.) involved are all information and data authorized by the user or fully authorized by all parties, and the collection, storage, use, processing, transmission, provision, disclosure and application of the relevant data comply with the relevant laws, regulations and standards of the relevant regions, take necessary confidentiality measures, do not violate public order and good morals, and provide corresponding operation entrances for users to choose to authorize or refuse.

[0039] During the implementation of this disclosure, it was discovered that related technologies primarily measure wheel diameter differences through periodic measurements. For example, a train passes at low speed over a sensor-equipped track, where the sensors collect and detect wheel geometry and calculate wheel diameter differences. Alternatively, during vehicle maintenance, the train measures various parameters, such as diameter and roughness, using a specific wheel measuring device to calculate wheel diameter differences. However, these measurement methods cannot achieve real-time detection of wheel diameter differences and rely solely on periodic testing by ground-based equipment, resulting in low detection efficiency and, in turn, impacting the safety and stability of train operation.

[0040] In view of this, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for detecting wheel diameter differences of rail vehicles, comprising: in response to receiving a signal that a traveling speed of a target rail vehicle is greater than a predetermined speed threshold, obtaining pulse signals of multiple wheels of the target rail vehicle in the tth time period and first wheel diameter information of multiple wheels in the t-1th time period, where t is an integer greater than 1; processing the pulse signal of each wheel to generate a wheel diameter deviation index of each wheel; generating second wheel diameter information of each wheel in the tth time period based on the wheel diameter deviation index of each wheel and the first wheel diameter information of each wheel; and generating wheel diameter difference information of multiple wheels in the tth time period based on the second wheel diameter information of each wheel.

[0041] Figure 1 The following schematically shows an application scenario diagram of the rail vehicle wheel diameter difference detection method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, the application scenario 100 according to this embodiment may include a target rail vehicle 101 , a network 102 and a server 103 .

[0043] Network 102 is a medium used to provide a communication link between the target rail vehicle 101 and the server 103. Network 102 primarily comprises the train network system, responsible for transmitting data collected by the wheel speed sensors to the data analysis module of server 103. This data transmission can utilize the existing train network system or establish a dedicated fault diagnosis network. Network 102 can include various connection types, such as wired or wireless communication links or fiber optic cables. For example, data transmission can be carried out via wired transmission (such as RS232 or Ethernet) or wireless transmission (such as wireless Wi-Fi).

[0044] Target rail vehicle 101 interacts with server 103 via network 102 to receive or send messages, etc. Each wheel of target rail vehicle 101 is equipped with a data acquisition module, which primarily comprises a wheel speed sensor and a preprocessor. The wheel speed sensor is used to collect pulse signals, and the preprocessor is used to preprocess these pulse signals. Each vehicle must collect at least three independently rotating pulse signals, and each wheelset must be equipped with at least one wheel speed sensor. Real-time data enters the preprocessor, which performs data cleaning and digital-to-analog conversion. The digital signal is then transmitted via the network to the data analysis module in server 103.

[0045] Server 103 can be a server that provides various services. The data analysis module in server 103 primarily includes a vehicle-level data processor and a train-level data processor, responsible for analyzing and processing data collected by wheel speed sensors to detect and predict wheel diameter differences. Furthermore, the data analysis module includes data storage, responsible for centrally storing data processed by the train network system or preprocessor. This storage can be set up in vehicle-level and train-level memory, respectively. This stored historical data can be accessed and analyzed by the data processing module.

[0046] Server 103 may also include a results display module, primarily comprising a results display, which displays the analysis results of the data analysis module in server 103 and provides guidance to train operators. The results display module uses an interactive human-machine interface to visually display the wheel diameter difference information for multiple wheels in time period t and the predicted wheel diameter difference information for multiple wheels in time period t+1. It also allows for detailed parameter viewing and historical parameter review as needed.

[0047] It should be noted that the rail vehicle wheel diameter difference detection method provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure can generally be executed by the server 103. Accordingly, the rail vehicle wheel diameter difference detection device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure can generally be set in the server 103. The rail vehicle wheel diameter difference detection method provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure can also be executed by a server or server cluster that is different from the server 103 and can communicate with the target rail vehicle 101 and / or the server 103. Accordingly, the rail vehicle wheel diameter difference detection device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure can also be set in a server or server cluster that is different from the server 103 and can communicate with the target rail vehicle 101 and / or the server 103.

[0048] It should be understood that Figure 1 The numbers of rail vehicles, networks, and servers shown in the figure are merely illustrative. Any number of rail vehicles, networks, and servers may be used depending on the implementation requirements.

[0049] The following will be based on Figure 1 The scene described by Figures 2 to 6 The method for detecting wheel diameter differences of rail vehicles according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is described in detail.

[0050] Figure 2 The flowchart of the method for detecting wheel diameter differences of rail vehicles according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown.

[0051] like Figure 2 As shown, the rail vehicle wheel diameter difference detection method 200 of this embodiment includes operations S210 to S240.

[0052] In operation S210, in response to receiving that the running speed of the target rail vehicle is greater than a predetermined speed threshold, pulse signals of multiple wheels of the target rail vehicle in the tth time period and first wheel diameter information of multiple wheels in the t-1th time period are obtained, where t is an integer greater than 1.

[0053] In operation S220 , the pulse signal of each wheel is processed to generate a wheel diameter deviation index of each wheel.

[0054] In operation S230 , second wheel diameter information of each wheel in the t-th time period is generated based on the wheel diameter deviation index of each wheel and the first wheel diameter information of each wheel.

[0055] In operation S240 , wheel diameter difference information of the plurality of wheels in the t-th time period is generated based on the second wheel diameter information of each wheel.

[0056] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the target rail vehicle may be a rail train, which may include a plurality of carriages, and each carriage may include a plurality of wheels.

[0057] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the predetermined speed threshold may represent the minimum speed at which the wheel speed sensor can collect wheel pulse signals during the travel of the target rail vehicle. For example, if the predetermined speed threshold is 10 km / h, then when the speed of the target rail vehicle is greater than or equal to 10 km / h, such as when the speed of the target rail vehicle is 30 km / h, the wheel speed sensor can collect wheel pulse signals of the target rail vehicle.

[0058] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, one wheel may be equipped with one wheel speed sensor or multiple wheel speed sensors. The wheel speed sensor of the target rail vehicle may collect multiple pulse signals within a period of time.

[0059] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first wheel diameter information of multiple wheels in the t-1 period can represent the diameter information of the wheels of the target rail vehicle in the t-1 period collected when the target rail vehicle is stationary, or it can represent the diameter information of the wheels of the target rail vehicle in the t-1 period collected in real time when the target rail vehicle is in motion.

[0060] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the wheel diameter deviation index can represent the ratio of the number of pulses of the wheel within a fixed sampling time to the wheel diameter. By processing the pulse signal of each wheel, the wheel diameter deviation index of each wheel can be generated.

[0061] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the second wheel diameter information may represent the diameter information of the wheel in the tth period. The second wheel diameter information of each wheel in the tth period may be generated based on the wheel diameter deviation index of each wheel and the first wheel diameter information of each wheel.

[0062] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the wheel diameter difference information may represent diameter difference information of a plurality of wheels. The wheel diameter difference information of the plurality of wheels in the tth time period may be generated based on the second wheel diameter information of each wheel.

[0063] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, wheel diameter difference information of multiple wheels can be generated by calculating wheel diameter difference information of multiple wheels of the same car, wheel diameter difference information of multiple wheels of the same bogie, or wheel diameter difference information of multiple wheels of the same target rail vehicle.

[0064] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, during the operation of the target rail vehicle and when the operating speed is greater than a predetermined speed threshold, the wheel diameter deviation index of each wheel can be generated by processing the collected wheel pulse signals, and based on the wheel diameter deviation index of each wheel and the first wheel diameter information of multiple wheels in the t-1 period, the second wheel diameter information of each wheel in the t period can be generated, and then the wheel diameter difference information of multiple wheels in the t period can be generated, thereby realizing real-time detection of the wheel diameter difference information of the wheels during the operation of the target rail vehicle, improving the detection efficiency, and thus improving the safety and stability of the operation of the target rail vehicle.

[0065] According to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the historical wheel diameter difference information of multiple wheels in the t-1 period can be actually measured when the target rail vehicle is stationary, or it can be predicted in the t-2 period. Figure 3 An implementation method in which the historical wheel diameter difference information of the plurality of wheels in the t-1 period is actually measured when the target rail vehicle is in a stationary state is described in detail.

[0066] Figure 3 The following schematically shows an architecture diagram of a method for detecting wheel diameter differences of rail vehicles according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0067] like Figure 3 As shown, when the running speed of the target rail vehicle is greater than the predetermined speed threshold, the pulse signals 311 of multiple wheels of the target rail vehicle in the t-th time period and the first wheel diameter information 312 of multiple wheels in the t-1th time period measured when the target rail vehicle is stationary can be obtained. By processing the pulse signals of each wheel, the wheel diameter deviation index 313 of each wheel can be generated. According to the wheel diameter deviation index 313 of each wheel and the first wheel diameter information 312 of each wheel, the second wheel diameter information 314 of each wheel in the t-th time period can be generated. Then, according to the second wheel diameter information 314 of each wheel in the t-th time period, the wheel diameter difference information 315 of multiple wheels in the t-th time period can be generated.

[0068] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first wheel diameter information of the multiple wheels acquired in the t-1th time period is obtained by measuring the first wheel diameter information of the multiple wheels of the target rail vehicle based on sensors installed on the track when the target rail vehicle is stationary.

[0069] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the pulse signal of each wheel is processed to generate a wheel diameter deviation index of each wheel, including: generating the number of pulses of each wheel according to the changing trend of the pulse signal of each wheel; generating the average number of pulses of multiple wheels according to each pulse number; and generating the wheel diameter deviation index of each wheel according to each pulse number and the average pulse number.

[0070] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the wheel pulses are square waves with both rising and falling trends. The number of wheel pulses can be generated based on the changing trend of the pulse signal of each wheel. If a wheel speed sensor is installed on each wheel, the number of pulses for each wheel can be calculated by counting the number of pulses collected by the wheel speed sensor. If multiple wheel speed sensors are installed on each wheel, the number of pulses for each wheel can be calculated by calculating the sum of the number of pulses collected by each wheel speed sensor and the ratio of the number of wheel speed sensors.

[0071] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, an average pulse number of multiple wheels may be generated based on the number of pulses. That is, the average pulse number of multiple wheels may be obtained by adding and averaging the pulse numbers of the respective wheels.

[0072] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a wheel diameter deviation index for each wheel can be generated based on the ratio of each pulse number to the average pulse number. For example, the pulse numbers of four wheels are L1, L2, L3, and L4, respectively, and the average pulse number Lnom = (L1 + L2 + L3 + L4) / 4. By calculating the ratio of the pulse number of each wheel to the average pulse number Lnom, the wheel diameter deviation index for each wheel can be generated. For example, the wheel diameter deviation index of the first wheel can be L1 / Lnom, the wheel diameter deviation index of the second wheel can be L2 / Lnom, the wheel diameter deviation index of the third wheel can be L3 / Lnom, and the wheel diameter deviation index of the fourth wheel can be L4 / Lnom.

[0073] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of pulses of each wheel can be generated according to the changing trend of the pulse signal of each wheel, so that the average number of pulses of multiple wheels can be calculated, and the wheel diameter deviation index of each wheel can be generated according to the ratio of each pulse number to the average pulse number, thereby improving the accuracy of the generated wheel diameter deviation index.

[0074] Figure 4 A schematic diagram of a pulse signal according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown.

[0075] like Figure 4 Figure 2 shows a pulse signal diagram of a wheel speed sensor outputting a voltage signal, including a first predetermined threshold and a second predetermined threshold, where the second predetermined threshold is greater than the first predetermined threshold. The wheel speed sensor output voltage signal has voltage values ​​at multiple sampling moments that are all less than the first predetermined threshold or greater than the second predetermined threshold.

[0076] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the variation trend of the pulse signal may include an upward trend and a downward trend. The number of pulses of each wheel may be generated according to the variation trend of the pulse signal of each wheel.

[0077] For example, in response to the i pulse signals before the nth sampling moment being less than a first predetermined threshold and the i-1 pulse signals after the nth sampling moment being greater than a second predetermined threshold, the pulse signal at the nth sampling moment is determined to be the first pulse turning position of an upward trend; and the number of first pulse turning positions of each wheel in the tth time period is counted to generate the number of pulses of each wheel.

[0078] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the pulse signal can be a voltage signal or a current signal, and the wheel speed sensor can output a high voltage signal / high current signal and a low voltage signal / low current signal of distinguishable size. Taking the voltage signal output by the wheel speed sensor as an example, a first predetermined threshold and a second predetermined threshold can be set through statistical analysis of the high voltage signal and the low voltage signal output by the wheel speed sensor. When the second predetermined threshold is greater than the first predetermined threshold, all high voltage signals are higher than the second predetermined threshold, and all low voltage signals are lower than the first predetermined threshold.

[0079] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the t-th time period may include N acquisition moments, where N is an integer greater than 1, and 1<i<n≤N.

[0080] like Figure 4 As shown, in response to the three pulse signals before the 4th sampling moment being less than the first predetermined threshold, and the three pulse signals after the 4th sampling moment being greater than the second predetermined threshold, it can be determined that the pulse signal at the 4th sampling moment undergoes a large change, that is, changes from less than the first predetermined threshold to greater than the second predetermined threshold, and the pulse signal has an upward trend, so that the pulse signal at the 4th sampling moment can be determined to be the first pulse turning position of the upward trend.

[0081] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of first pulse turning points for each wheel during time period t can be counted to generate the pulse count for each wheel. If a wheel is equipped with a single wheel speed sensor during time period t, the wheel pulse count can be directly counted. For example, if the number of first pulse turning points for a wheel is NN, the wheel pulse count is NN. If a wheel is equipped with multiple wheel speed sensors during time period t, the wheel pulse count can be calculated by summing and averaging the pulse counts of each wheel speed sensor. For example, if the first pulse turning points for three wheel speed sensors are NN1, NN2, and NN3, the wheel pulse count is NN = (NN1 + NN2 + NN3) / 3.

[0082] According to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of pulses for each wheel can be generated according to the number of first pulse turning positions of the rising trend, thereby improving the flexibility of generating the number of pulses for each wheel.

[0083] For another example, in response to the j pulse signals before the nth sampling moment being greater than the second predetermined threshold and the j-1 pulse signals after the nth sampling moment being less than the first predetermined threshold, the pulse signal at the nth sampling moment is determined to be the second pulse turning position of the downward trend; and the number of the second pulse turning positions of each wheel in the tth time period is counted to generate the number of pulses of each wheel.

[0084] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the t-th time period includes N acquisition moments, where N is an integer greater than 1, and 1<j<n≤N.

[0085] like Figure 4 As shown, in response to the four pulse signals before the 8th sampling moment being greater than the second predetermined threshold, and the three pulse signals after the 8th sampling moment being less than the first predetermined threshold, it can be determined that the pulse signal undergoes a large change at the 8th sampling moment, that is, changes from greater than the second predetermined threshold to less than the first predetermined threshold, and the pulse signal has a downward trend, so that the pulse signal at the 8th sampling moment can be determined to be the second pulse turning position of the downward trend.

[0086] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of second pulse turning points for each wheel during time period t is counted to generate the pulse count for each wheel. If a wheel is equipped with a single wheel speed sensor during time period t, the wheel pulse count can be directly calculated. For example, if the number of second pulse turning points for a wheel is MM, the wheel pulse count is MM. If a wheel is equipped with multiple wheel speed sensors during time period t, the wheel pulse count can be calculated by summing and averaging the pulse counts of each wheel speed sensor. For example, if the number of second pulse turning points for three wheel speed sensors is MM1, MM2, and MM3, the wheel pulse count is MM = (MM1 + MM2 + MM3) / 3.

[0087] According to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of pulses for each wheel can be generated according to the number of second pulse turning positions of the downward trend, thereby improving the flexibility of generating the number of pulses for each wheel.

[0088] For another example, the number of first pulse turning positions corresponding to the upward trend and the number of second pulse turning positions corresponding to the downward trend of each wheel are obtained; and the number of pulses of each wheel is generated based on the number of each first pulse turning position and the number of each second pulse turning position.

[0089] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of first pulse turning positions corresponding to an upward trend for each wheel can be obtained by counting the number of first pulse turning positions at which the pulse signal at the nth sampling moment shows an upward trend. The number of second pulse turning positions corresponding to a downward trend can be obtained by counting the number of second pulse turning positions at which the pulse signal at the nth sampling moment shows a downward trend.

[0090] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of pulses of each wheel can be generated by averaging the number of first pulse turning positions and the number of second pulse turning positions. Figure 4 As shown, the number NN of the first pulse turning positions of a wheel is 1, and the number MM of the second pulse turning positions is 1, then the number of pulses of the wheel is L=(1+1) / 2.

[0091] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the accuracy of the number of pulses generated for each wheel can be improved based on the number of first pulse turning positions and the number of second pulse turning positions, and the flexibility of generating the number of pulses for each wheel can be further improved.

[0092] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the second wheel diameter information of each wheel in the t-th time period is generated based on the wheel diameter deviation index of each wheel and the first wheel diameter information of each wheel, including: for the wheel diameter deviation index of each wheel within Q sampling periods, calculating the wheel diameter deviation index error corresponding to each period; in response to the wheel diameter deviation index error of the q-th sampling period being less than a predetermined error threshold, determining the wheel diameter deviation index of the q-th sampling period as the target wheel diameter deviation index; and generating the second wheel diameter information of each wheel in the t-th time period based on the target wheel diameter deviation index of each wheel and the first wheel diameter information of each wheel.

[0093] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the tth time period may include Q sampling periods, where Q is an integer greater than 1. For example, the tth time period may include 10 sampling periods.

[0094] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the wheel diameter deviation in the qth sampling period can represent the average of multiple wheel diameter deviation indices in the sampling period. For each wheel's wheel diameter deviation index in Q sampling periods, the wheel diameter deviation index error corresponding to each period can be obtained.

[0095] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the predetermined error threshold can be set based on experience, for example, the predetermined error threshold can be 0.2%. If the wheel diameter deviation index error of the qth sampling period is less than the predetermined error threshold, the wheel diameter deviation index of the qth sampling period can be determined as the target wheel diameter deviation index.

[0096] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, if the errors of multiple wheel diameter deviation indices in a sampling period are all less than a predetermined error threshold, the multiple wheel diameter deviation indices in the sampling period can be determined to be valid, and a wheel diameter deviation index exists in the sampling period. If at least one of the errors of multiple wheel diameter deviation indices in a sampling period is not less than the predetermined error threshold, the multiple wheel diameter deviation indices in the sampling period can be determined to be invalid, and no wheel diameter deviation index exists in the sampling period.

[0097] For example, in the qth sampling period, the wheel diameter deviation index errors of the p wheels can be determined by calculating the average of the wheel diameter deviation indices of the p wheels and combining them with the wheel diameter deviation indices of the p wheels. When the wheel diameter deviation index errors of the p wheels are all less than a predetermined error threshold, it can be determined that the multiple wheel diameter deviation indices of the sampling period are valid, and the wheel diameter deviation index of the qth sampling period can be determined as the target wheel diameter deviation index.

[0098] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the second wheel diameter information of each wheel in the t-th time period may be generated according to the target wheel diameter deviation index of each wheel and the first wheel diameter information of each wheel.

[0099] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, by comparing the calculated relationship between the wheel diameter deviation index error corresponding to each period and a predetermined error threshold, if the wheel diameter deviation index error in the qth sampling period is less than the predetermined error threshold, the wheel diameter deviation index of the qth sampling period is determined to be the target wheel diameter deviation index, and then based on the target wheel diameter deviation index of each wheel and the first wheel diameter information of each wheel, the second wheel diameter information of each wheel in the tth time period can be generated, and the real-time second wheel diameter information of each wheel in the tth time period can be obtained, and the accuracy of the obtained second wheel diameter information of each wheel in the tth time period is improved.

[0100] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, wheel diameter difference information of multiple wheels in the tth time period is generated based on the second wheel diameter information of each wheel, including: extracting the second wheel diameter information of at least two target wheels from the second wheel diameter information of each wheel; generating wheel diameter difference information based on the second wheel diameter information of at least two target wheels.

[0101] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the positional relationship between the at least two target wheels includes at least one of the following: being located on the same bogie of the target rail vehicle and being located on the same car of the target rail vehicle. In other words, the target wheels may be located on the same bogie of the target rail vehicle or on the same car of the target rail vehicle. Alternatively, the positional relationship between the at least two target wheels may further include being located on the same target rail vehicle.

[0102] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the second wheel diameter information of each wheel is obtained according to the product of the wheel diameter deviation index of each wheel and the first wheel diameter information of each wheel.

[0103] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the second wheel diameter information of at least two target wheels can be extracted from the second wheel diameter information of each wheel, and wheel diameter difference information can be generated based on the second wheel diameter information of at least two target wheels. For example, in the case where the second wheel diameter information of two target wheels is included on a bogie, the maximum and minimum values ​​of the second path difference information of the two target wheels are determined, and the wheel diameter difference information of the same bogie can be generated based on the maximum and minimum values ​​of the second path difference information of the two target wheels. Similarly, in the case where the second wheel diameter information of six target wheels is included on the same carriage, the maximum and minimum values ​​of the second path difference information of the six target wheels are determined, and the wheel diameter difference information of the same carriage can be generated based on the maximum and minimum values ​​of the second path difference information of the six target wheels.

[0104] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, by extracting the second wheel diameter information of at least two target wheels from the second wheel diameter information of each wheel, the maximum and minimum values ​​can be determined from the extracted second wheel diameter information, thereby generating wheel diameter difference information under a variety of target wheel position relationships, thereby improving the diversity and accuracy of the wheel diameter difference information.

[0105] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the above-mentioned rail vehicle wheel diameter difference detection method also includes: recording wheel diameter difference abnormality information in response to the wheel diameter difference information exceeding a predetermined difference threshold; and generating wheel diameter abnormality alarm information in response to the number of wheel diameter difference abnormality information exceeding a predetermined abnormality threshold.

[0106] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the predetermined difference threshold can be set based on experience, and different predetermined difference thresholds can be set for the positional relationships between at least two target wheels. For example, the predetermined difference threshold of the same bogie can be set to DPbog-set, the predetermined difference threshold of the same carriage can be set to DPcoa-set, and the predetermined difference threshold of the same target rail vehicle can be set to DPtri-set.

[0107] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the predetermined abnormality threshold may represent the minimum number of times that wheel diameter difference information exceeds the predetermined difference threshold. For example, the predetermined abnormality threshold may be set to 10, and if the number of recorded wheel diameter difference abnormality information exceeds 10 times, a wheel diameter abnormality alarm message may be generated.

[0108] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a predetermined difference threshold can be set. When the wheel diameter abnormality information exceeds the predetermined difference threshold, the wheel diameter difference abnormality information is recorded, and when the number of wheel diameter abnormality information is greater than the predetermined abnormality threshold, the wheel diameter abnormality alarm information is generated, thereby realizing the generation of wheel diameter abnormality alarm information under different positional relationships between target wheels, thereby improving the safety of the target rail vehicle operation.

[0110] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the second target model may be obtained by training using sample historical wheel diameter information within a predetermined historical period and operating parameter information of the target rail vehicle.

[0111] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the prediction accuracy of the second target model on the test set is higher than a limit (e.g., 98%), the second target model can be considered valid. The second target model can also be a model built based on a machine learning method, such as multiple linear regression, ridge regression, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (Lasso) regression, decision tree regression, random forest regression, gradient boosting regression, support vector regression, extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) regression, LightGBM regression, neural network regression, etc.

[0112] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, historical wheel diameter information and operating parameter information can be input into the second target model to predict the first wheel diameter information of multiple wheels in the next period, and the first wheel diameter information of multiple wheels in the t-1 period can be output.

[0113] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the above-mentioned rail vehicle wheel diameter difference detection method also includes: obtaining historical wheel diameter difference information of multiple wheels in the previous t-1 period and operating parameter information of the target rail vehicle; and inputting the historical wheel diameter difference information, operating parameter information and wheel diameter difference information of multiple wheels in the tth period into the first target model, and outputting the wheel diameter difference prediction information of multiple wheels in the t+1th period.

The operating parameter information of the target rail vehicle can represent train parameters related to wheel wear, such as mileage, speed, acceleration, air spring pressure, traction level, brake level, axle box bearing temperature, traction motor current, traction motor voltage, network current, network pressure, brake cylinder pressure, actual braking force, bogie dynamic load, idling, coasting, and other parameters.

[0115] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first target model can be trained using historical wheel diameter difference information of samples within a predetermined historical period and operating parameter information of the target rail vehicle. When the prediction accuracy of the first target model on the test set exceeds a limit (e.g., 98%), the first target model can be considered effective. The first target model can be a model constructed based on machine learning methods, such as multiple linear regression, ridge regression, Lasso regression, decision tree regression, random forest regression, gradient boosting regression, support vector regression, XGBoost regression, LightGBM regression, neural network regression, etc.

[0116] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, historical wheel diameter difference information, operating parameter information, and wheel diameter difference information for multiple wheels during period t can be input into a first target model to predict path difference information for multiple wheels during the next period, thereby outputting predicted wheel diameter difference information for multiple wheels during period t+1. The wheel diameter difference information for multiple wheels during period t can be output from a second target model.

[0117] According to the embodiments of the present disclosure, by inputting historical wheel diameter difference information, operating parameter information and wheel diameter difference information of multiple wheels in the t-th period into the first target model, the wheel diameter difference information of multiple wheels in the t+1-th period can be predicted, thereby outputting the wheel diameter difference prediction information of multiple wheels in the t+1-th period, and comparing the wheel diameter difference prediction information with a predetermined difference threshold, it can be predicted whether the wheel diameter difference information of multiple wheels in the t+1-th period exceeds the limit alarm, and a wheel turning and repair plan can be formulated in advance based on the prediction results, thereby realizing predictive maintenance of wheels, improving wheel utilization while ensuring the safety and availability of wheels, and achieving cost reduction and efficiency improvement.

[0118] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the historical wheel diameter difference information of multiple wheels in the t-1 period can be actually measured when the target rail vehicle is stationary, or it can be predicted in the t-2 period. In the case that the historical wheel diameter difference information of multiple wheels in the t-1 period is actually measured when the target rail vehicle is stationary, the wheel diameter difference information of multiple wheels in the t+1 period can be predicted based on the historical wheel diameter difference information of multiple wheels in the t-1 period, the wheel diameter difference information of multiple wheels in the t period, and the operating parameter information of the target rail vehicle, so as to obtain the wheel diameter difference prediction information of multiple wheels in the t+1 period.

[0120] like Figure 5As shown, the pulse signals 511 of the multiple wheels of the target rail vehicle obtained in the t-th time period are processed to generate the wheel diameter deviation index 513 of each wheel. The wheel diameter deviation index 513 of each wheel combined with the first wheel diameter information 512 of the multiple wheels obtained in the t-1th time period can generate the second wheel diameter information 514 of the multiple wheels in the t-th time period. According to the second wheel diameter information 514 of each wheel, the wheel diameter difference information 515 of the multiple wheels in the t-th time period is generated. The wheel diameter difference information 515 of the multiple wheels in the t-th time period, the operating parameter information 517 of the target rail vehicle and the historical wheel diameter difference information 518 of the multiple wheels in the t-1th time period are input into the first target model 516, so as to generate the wheel diameter difference prediction information 519 of the multiple wheels in the t+1th time period.

[0121] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the historical wheel diameter difference information of multiple wheels in the t-1 period is predicted in the t-2 period, the historical wheel diameter difference information of multiple wheels in the t-1 period can be obtained by inputting the operating parameter information of the target rail vehicle, the historical wheel diameter difference information of multiple wheels in the t-2 period, and other information into the second target model.

The wheel diameter deviation index 613 of each wheel combined with the first wheel diameter information 612 of the multiple wheels obtained in the t-1th time period can generate the second wheel diameter information 614 of the multiple wheels in the t-th time period. According to the second wheel diameter information 614 of each wheel, the wheel diameter difference information 615 of the multiple wheels in the t-th time period is generated.
