Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of electromagnetic switch contact deoxidation, and in particular to a method and device for deoxidation of EMU safety circuit contacts. Background Art
[0002] The safety circuit of EMU is mainly composed of relays or contactors. Both relays and contactors are electromagnetic switches, which are switch elements that use low voltage and low current circuits to control high voltage and high current circuits. In the application process of these low-voltage switch elements, the metal on the surface of the contact will be exposed to the air, where oxygen or other active gases often react chemically with atoms on the metal surface to form a surface film. Different metal materials will generate surface films with different properties under different environmental conditions. The presence of the film will increase the contact resistance of the contact and cause serious instability, and even destroy the normal conduction of the electrical contact. Especially for small-capacity relay contacts, contact contamination has become one of the important reasons for relay failure.

[0034] To make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the embodiments of the present invention are further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Here, the exemplary embodiments of the present invention and their descriptions are used to explain the present invention, but are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0035] At present, the EMU has used disassembly means to dismantle the relays and contactors for deoxidation, or connected deoxidation tools on the vehicle to achieve deoxidation. These methods are time-consuming and labor-intensive on the one hand, and it is difficult to carry out targeted deoxidation film operations on the other hand, and it is difficult to count the deoxidation effects before and after the operation. Therefore, the purpose of this application is to provide a method and device for deoxidation of the safety circuit contacts of the EMU, which can not only fully automate the contact deoxidation operation and liberate manpower, but also can carry out targeted deoxidation film operations.
[0036] like Figure 1 The figure shows a flow chart of a method for deoxidation of the safety circuit contacts of a train set provided in an embodiment of the present application. This embodiment describes the present application from the side of the deoxidation control unit. The method comprises the following steps:
[0037] Step S101: Perform an overall resistance test on the EMU safety circuit.
[0038] This step is the initial step of the deoxidation process of the safety circuit contact of the EMU of this application, and is a preliminary resistance measurement of the entire safety circuit. A high-precision multimeter or a professional loop tester can be used to measure the overall resistance value of the safety circuit at the test point (determined according to the circuit diagram). In this embodiment, multiple measurements can be taken to average the values to improve the measurement accuracy, and factors such as ambient temperature that may affect the measurement results can also be recorded.
[0039] In addition to testing the overall resistance of the safety circuit, this step also measures the contact resistance of individual relays and contactors in the safety circuit.
[0040] Preferably, when measuring the contact resistance of a single relay and contactor in a safety circuit, a programmable logic controller (PLC) can be used to control the opening and closing of the switch device (relay and contactor) so that the contacts of each relay and contactor in the safety circuit are sequentially connected in series to a resistance measuring instrument, and then the resistance measuring instrument is used to detect the real-time resistance of the contacts in the circuit. This automated testing method significantly improves the test efficiency and accuracy, and avoids errors that may be introduced by manual operation.
[0041] Step S102: Record the test results into a database.
[0042] The overall resistance of the safety circuit tested for the first time and the contact resistance of individual relays and contactors in the safety circuit are stored in the database. When storing the contact resistance of individual relays and contactors, the device type (relay or contactor) is stored together with the corresponding contact resistance, so that the subsequent processor can determine whether there is a contact oxidation problem based on the test results, and can subsequently adjust the appropriate deoxidation current based on the device type.
[0043] Step S103: Determine whether there is a contact oxidation problem based on the test results. Here, according to different test results, it can be handled in three situations: in the first situation, there is no contact oxidation problem, but the safety loop resistance is abnormal, then enter the manual processing stage; in the second situation, there is no contact oxidation problem, and the safety loop resistance is normal, then end the deoxidation process; in the third situation, there is a contact oxidation problem, then enter step S104.
[0044] According to the test result of step S101, the processor can determine whether there is a contact oxidation problem. Specifically, it is divided into the above three situations:
[0045] The first case: There is no contact oxidation problem, but the safety circuit resistance is abnormal. This situation indicates that the problem may be in other components or circuits, such as circuit breakage, component damage, etc. This situation requires manual processing, and technicians will perform troubleshooting and repairs based on the specific situation.
[0046] Preferably, before entering the manual processing stage, the method of this embodiment may also include the following steps: using PLC to control the opening and closing of switching devices to measure the segmented resistance of the safety circuit to find abnormal points, and when abnormal lines or components are found, a system fault prompt is issued.
[0047] The total resistance of the loop is abnormal, which means that there is extra resistance somewhere in the circuit, causing the resistance value of the entire circuit to deviate from the expected value.
[0048] Therefore, in order to facilitate technicians to troubleshoot, this embodiment adopts a segmented measurement method, which means dividing the entire circuit into several small sections, and then measuring the resistance of each section separately. By comparing the resistance value of each section with the expected value, the fault range can be gradually narrowed down and the fault point can be finally found. Then the system can generate a fault point prompt to instruct the technician to manually handle the fault, such as replacing damaged components, repairing disconnected lines, or other necessary maintenance work.
[0049] For example:
[0050] Assume that a circuit includes a relay, resistors R1, R2, and a load, and the total resistance is abnormal. The segmented measurement process is as follows:
[0051] Step 1: Measure the relay contact resistance (normal).
[0052] Step 2: Measure the resistance from the relay to R1 (normal).
[0053] Step 3: Measure the resistance of R1 (normal).
[0054] Step 4: Measure the resistance between R1 and R2 (abnormal).
[0055] Step 5: Measure the resistance of R2 (normal).
[0056] Step 6: Measure the resistance from R2 to the load (normal).
[0057] Through the above steps, it can be determined that the fault is located in the line between R1 and R2. The system will prompt that there is a problem at this location, and then the technician will manually check and repair it.
[0058] The second case: there is no contact oxidation problem and the safety circuit resistance is normal. This situation indicates that the safety circuit is working normally and no deoxidation operation is required, and the process ends.
[0059] The third situation: there is a contact oxidation problem. If the measured contact resistance of a single relay and a contactor is significantly higher than the expected value, it can be determined that there is a contact oxidation problem, and the process goes to step S104.
[0060] Step S104: isolating the relay or contactor contacts in the safety circuit that have contact oxidation problems.
[0061] According to the judgment result of step S103, the relay or contactor with the contact oxidation problem is located. In order to avoid affecting other components, the problematic contacts need to be isolated from the safety circuit. Preferably, this embodiment can use PLC to connect the relay or contactor contacts with the contact oxidation problem in the safety circuit in series to the resistance tester, thereby achieving contact isolation.
[0062] That is, this embodiment utilizes the control capability of the PLC to achieve contact isolation, eliminating the need for manual disassembly of relays or contactors, minimizing the risk of damage and simplifying the maintenance process. Isolation is achieved by cleverly integrating resistance measuring instruments into the circuit through the PLC. The PLC provides precise control, and only specific contacts identified as oxidized are isolated, while the rest of the safety circuit continues to operate normally, minimizing interruptions.
[0063] Step S105: Perform a resistance test on the isolation contacts again.
[0064] Performing a separate resistance test on the isolated contacts more accurately measures the resistance of the oxidized contacts, and again the test results need to be accurately recorded so that they can be compared with the results after the deoxidation treatment.
[0065] Step S106: Determine whether deoxidation operation is required based on the retest result, if yes, proceed to step S107, otherwise, end the deoxidation process.
[0066] Determine whether deoxidation is required based on the test result of step S105. If the resistance value is still significantly higher than the normal value, deoxidation is required (proceed to step S107); otherwise, it indicates that the contact problem may not be caused by oxidation, and further inspection or treatment of other faults is required, and the process ends.
[0067] Step S107: performing deoxidation preparation, including adjusting the output voltage of the variable resistor and the programmable power supply.
[0068] Since different devices require different currents during the deoxidation process, for example, relays require large currents, while contactors require small currents. If the current is too small, the energy of the electric sparks generated during the subsequent deoxidation will be insufficient, and the oxide film may not be effectively removed; if the current is too large, the energy of the electric sparks generated later will be too large, which may damage the contacts or even cause contact ablation. Therefore, the present application requires strict control of the output current. In the present application, the current is controlled by adjusting the output voltage of the variable resistor and the programmable power supply.
[0069] The programmable power supply provides an adjustable DC voltage, and the variable resistor is connected in series with the programmable power supply to form a variable resistor circuit. By changing the resistance of the variable resistor, the total resistance of the circuit can be changed, thereby changing the current in the circuit. By coordinating the output voltage of the programmable power supply and the resistance of the variable resistor, the system can accurately control the current flowing through the contacts, thereby accurately controlling the energy of the electric spark, and ultimately achieving efficient and safe contact deoxidation.
[0070] Step S108: While the program-controlled power supply continuously outputs current to the isolation contact, the isolation contact is controlled to open and close to perform contact deoxidation. After the deoxidation operation is completed, return to step S105 to perform resistance testing again until the resistance of the isolation contact returns to normal, and then the deoxidation process is terminated.
[0071] In step S107, the system controls the current within a suitable range by adjusting the output voltage of the variable resistor and the programmable power supply. This current is not used for direct deoxidation, but is used to prepare for the generation of sparks. In this step, the PLC controls the opening and closing of the contacts, so that the contacts generate sparks at the moment of power on. Repeated opening and closing operations generate multiple sparks, thereby removing the oxide film more thoroughly.
[0072] Preferably, after the resistance test is performed again on the isolation contacts after deoxidation treatment, the method further includes: storing the test result data in a database, and having the processor screen the test result data that meet the deoxidation effect standards and retain them, and deleting the test result data that do not meet the standards, the test result data including: the resistance data of the relay and contactor contacts before deoxidation, the resistance data of the relay and contactor contacts after deoxidation, the programmable power supply voltage setting, and the resistance setting of the variable resistor.
[0073] Accordingly, it is further preferred that Figure 2 As shown, in the above step S107, adjusting the output voltage of the variable resistor and the programmable power supply in the deoxidation preparation may include the following sub-steps:
[0074] Step S201: Match the test results obtained from the resistance test with the resistance data of the relay and contactor contacts before deoxidation in the database.
[0075] Before preparing for deoxidation (step S107), the system first performs a resistance test to obtain the contact resistance data before deoxidation. This step S201 is to match this test result with the contact resistance data before deoxidation already in the database. The basis for matching may be information such as contact type and model. A large amount of historical data is stored in the database, including the resistance values of different types of contacts before deoxidation, the corresponding optimal programmable power supply voltage settings and variable resistor resistance settings, and the resistance values after deoxidation.
[0076] Step S202: If the match is successful, the output voltage of the variable resistor and the programmable power supply is adjusted based on the corresponding programmable power supply voltage setting and the resistance setting of the variable resistor in the database.
[0077] If step S201 is successfully matched, it means that there is historical data similar to the current contact type in the database. The system will directly adjust the output voltage of the variable resistor and the programmable power supply according to the corresponding programmable power supply voltage setting and variable resistor resistance setting in the database. This is an intelligent control method based on empirical data, which can improve the deoxidation efficiency and success rate.
[0078] The matching in this step may be a fuzzy matching method, that is, as long as the difference between the test result and the resistance data in the database is within a set range, the matching can be considered successful.
[0079] Step S203: If the matching is unsuccessful, the variable resistor and the output voltage of the programmable power supply are adjusted together until the output current is adjusted to 2A.
[0080] If the matching in step S201 fails, it means that there is no historical data in the database that is exactly the same as the current contact type. At this time, the system will adopt a default strategy, such as adjusting the output current to 2A (which may be an empirical value or a safe value), and then perform a deoxidation operation. This is a conservative strategy to ensure that a safe deoxidation operation can be performed even in the absence of historical data. The test results of this time (including resistance data before and after deoxidation, programmable power supply voltage setting, and variable resistor resistance setting) can be stored in the database later to provide a reference for future deoxidation operations.
[0081] It can be seen from the above technical solution that the method for deoxidizing the contacts of the EMU safety circuit provided by the present application has the following beneficial effects:
[0082] 1. Compared with the prior art that requires disassembling relays and contactors for deoxidation, or connecting special deoxidation tools to the vehicle, the method of the present application does not require disassembling components, and deoxidation operations are performed directly in the safety circuit, which significantly shortens maintenance time, reduces maintenance costs and human resource consumption. This avoids the extra workload and potential damage risks caused by disassembly and installation.
[0083] 2. The method of the present application can accurately locate the contacts that need to be deoxidized through precise resistance testing, thus avoiding the problem of difficulty in targeted operation in existing methods. The combination of programmable power supply and variable resistor can adjust the deoxidation parameters according to the contact material and oxidation degree, ensuring the effectiveness and targeting of the deoxidation treatment, thereby obtaining a better deoxidation effect.
[0084] 3. The method of the present application stores the test results (including resistance data before and after deoxidation, voltage setting, and resistance setting) in a database, which can provide data support for the adjustment of the programmable power supply and variable resistor, thereby achieving better deoxidation effect and higher efficiency.
