[0002] Railway transportation safety not only affects the production efficiency and economic benefits of the enterprise itself, but also has a significant impact on society and the economy. Railway transportation safety is a comprehensive manifestation of the normal operation order of the transportation production system and the intactness of transportation equipment. At present, the high-speed rail cause in our country is developing rapidly, which greatly facilitates people's travel.

Specific embodiments

[0028] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0029] Please refer to Figures 1 to 8 , the present invention provides a technical solution: a high-speed rail bolt device with a loosening warning mechanism, including a bolt head 1, the bottom end of the bolt head 1 is connected to a threaded column 2, and a connecting nut 19 is screwed on the threaded column 2. When using this bolt device, like a common bolt, place the bolt head 1 and the connecting nut 19 on both sides of the installation location, then pass the threaded column 2 through the installation hole and screw it into the connecting nut 19, just screw it in. Connected to the threaded column 2 are:

[0030] The first fixing component, which is located at the top end of the threaded column 2 and is connected to the bottom surface of the bolt head 1, and is used to lock and fix the top end of the threaded column 2;

[0031] The second fixing component, which is connected to the connecting nut 19, and is used to fix the connecting nut 19 to prevent the connecting nut 19 from rotating synchronously with the threaded column 2 when the threaded column 2 is screwed into the connecting nut 19.

[0032] The connection part between the top end of the threaded column 2 and the bolt head 1 is the connecting portion 3, and a corrugation 301 is provided on the circumferential side wall of the connecting portion 3.

[0033] The first fixing component is embedded and installed on the upper surface of the bolt installation position. The first fixing component includes a first fixing ring 4. The threaded column 2 passes through the center of the first fixing ring 4. A plurality of positioning blocks 5 are arranged on the side wall of the first fixing ring 4. The positioning blocks 5 are used for limiting and installing the first fixing ring 4. The positioning blocks 5 are fixedly installed in the installation grooves at corresponding positions by glue or soldering. The installation method is not fixed and can be easily removed. The electrical connection of all internal structures can be achieved by existing technologies. Therefore, no description of the circuit structure is made in the present invention.

[0034] An annular groove is formed on the upper surface of the first fixing ring 4. The annular groove and the first fixing ring 4 are coaxially arranged. A movable ring 6 is movably arranged in the annular groove. A plurality of balls 7 are installed on the upper surface of the movable ring 6. When the bolt is tightened, the bolt head 1 moves downward, and the bottom surface of the bolt head 1 presses against the movable ring 6 and rotates. The balls 7 can reduce the friction between the two and thus reduce wear. A plurality of connecting springs 8 are connected to the bottom surface of the movable ring 6. A pressure sensor 9 is connected to the bottom of two of the connecting springs 8. When the bolt is installed, the bottom surface of the bolt head 1 presses against the movable ring 6 and applies pressure to the pressure sensor 9 through the connecting springs 8. The pressure sensor 9 monitors the pressure in real time.

[0035] A locking mechanism for preventing the threaded column 2 from loosening and rotating is arranged in the first fixing ring 4. A cavity is formed on the inner side wall of the first fixing ring 4. The locking mechanism includes a clamping column 10 movably arranged in the cavity. One end of the clamping column 10 facing the opening of the cavity is a sharp-cornered structure. A central push plate 11 is arranged on the clamping column 10. A group of adsorption plates 12 are fixedly arranged in the cavity. The central push plate 11 is adsorbed on the adsorption plates 12. A top push spring 13 is arranged in the cavity. The top push spring 13 is sleeved on the other end of the clamping column 10, and a blocking frame 14 is connected to the end of the top push spring 13. The blocking frame 14 blocks the top push spring 13 and the top push spring 13 is in a compressed state. The blocking frame 14 is fixed in the cavity through a connecting wire 15. When a certain value of current passes through the connecting wire 15, it will directly fuse. The connecting wire 15 only needs to be able to fix the blocking frame 14 and will not be pushed off by the top push spring 13. The magnitude of the fusing current depends on the connecting wire 15.

[0036] The bolt device is used in conjunction with an early warning system, which includes an induction module, a signal conditioning module, a microcontroller, an alarm device, an emergency processing module, and a control module; the induction module includes a pressure sensor 9; the signal conditioning module is used to receive the sensor signal sent by the pressure sensor 9, amplify, filter, and linearize the sensor signal to make it suitable for processing by the microcontroller; the microcontroller is used to process the sensor signal, execute algorithms, and control the alarm logic; the alarm device is used for abnormal alarm; the emergency processing module is used to receive the control instruction signal sent by the microcontroller and then make corresponding emergency processing through the locking mechanism; the control module provides a user interface to display the current pressure value and allows the user to set the alarm threshold; the pressure sensor 9 senses the pressure of the bolt head 1 on the lower part in real time. When the pressure value is greater than or equal to the threshold, it indicates that the bolt is in a tightened state. When the pressure sensed by the pressure sensor 9 is less than the threshold, it indicates that the bolt is loose. The microcontroller receives the abnormal signal and makes abnormal processing. The alarm device issues an alarm to notify the abnormal situation. The emergency processing module makes emergency processing, passes an electric current through the connecting wire 15 to fuse the connecting wire 15. After the connecting wire 15 is fused, under the elastic force of the pushing spring 13, the blocking frame 14 is pushed, and then the central push plate 11 and the clamping column 10 are pushed. The end of the clamping column 10 abuts against the connecting part 3 and is stuck in the corrugation 301 to prevent the threaded column 2 from rotating further and making the screw looser.

[0037] A nut top ring 20 is provided at the upper end of the connecting nut 19. A docking groove 21 is provided in the nut top ring 20, and a plurality of positioning grooves 2101 are opened on the inner side wall of the docking groove 21. The installation method of the second fixing component and the first fixing component is the same. The second fixing component includes a second fixing ring 16. A protruding ring 17 is provided at the bottom of the second fixing ring 16. The protruding ring 17 is correspondingly embedded in the docking groove 21. A plurality of positioning protrusions 1701 are provided on the side wall of the protruding ring 17. The positioning protrusions 1701 are correspondingly stuck in the positioning grooves 2101. A magnetic ring 18 is provided on the periphery of the protruding ring 17 on the bottom surface of the second fixing ring 16. The top surface of the nut top ring 20 is adsorbed on the magnetic ring 18. When a common bolt is used, there will be a problem, that is, when tightening, the screw and the nut will rotate synchronously, which will make the connection not firm. Therefore, when the bolt device in the present invention is used, first, the connecting nut 19 and the protruding ring 17 are docked, and the nut top ring 20 is adsorbed on the magnetic ring 18 so that the positioning protrusions 1701 are correspondingly inserted into the positioning grooves 2101. At this time, when the threaded column 2 is rotated, the connecting nut 19 will not rotate therewith, making the connection more stable.

[0038] The bolt device is used in conjunction with the early warning system through two groups of fixing components and a locking mechanism. The pressure sensor 9 monitors the tightening and loosening state of the bolt in real time. When the bolt becomes loose, corresponding measures are taken in time, and the bolt can be locked and fixed to prevent the bolt from becoming loose. The treatment is more timely, avoiding the occurrence of potential safety hazards.

[0039] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
