Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of railway locomotive parts, and specifically relates to a leakage monitoring and protection device for locomotive auxiliary machines. Background Technique
[0002] During the operation of a railway locomotive, auxiliary machines (such as cooling fans, oil pumps, ventilators, air compressors, phase splitting machines, etc.) are key auxiliary equipment, and their electrical safety is directly related to the normal operation of the locomotive and train operation safety.
[0003] However, in the prior art, the monitoring and protection measures for auxiliary machine leakage are not yet perfect, and there are many potential safety hazards. In actual operation, the following situation often occurs: when the locomotive is running, the TCMS screen shows that the main circuit breaker trips due to the grounding fault of the auxiliary converter. After in-depth analysis, it is found that the vast majority of APU grounding faults are caused by the grounding of auxiliary machine equipment; if the faulty auxiliary machine cannot be removed in time during the operation of the locomotive, it is very likely to cause the locomotive to stop operating, which will directly disrupt the normal transportation production order and bring serious economic losses and adverse effects to railway transportation.
[0004] When the auxiliary machine is grounded, there are obvious limitations in the current protection circuit of the locomotive auxiliary converter device. It can only protect the locomotive auxiliary converter itself, but cannot perform separate removal protection for a specific auxiliary machine. Therefore, currently, it can only rely on manual judgment to determine the specific faulty auxiliary machine. This means that the operator needs to monitor all the auxiliary machines in the two independent auxiliary converters APU1 and APU2 in the locomotive one by one to determine whether there is a ground fault. This is undoubtedly a huge and cumbersome task. If problems occur during operation and rely entirely on manual judgment of auxiliary machine grounding and corresponding treatment measures, it places too high requirements on the professional skills, response ability, and work intensity of the crew. A slight oversight may lead to untimely fault handling and further expand the losses.
[0005] Therefore, it is particularly important to develop a device that can monitor in real time and effectively determine the position of the specific faulty auxiliary machine in a railway locomotive, which will greatly improve the safety and reliability of railway locomotive operation and provide a strong guarantee for the efficient and stable operation of railway transportation.

[0052] All modules of the device work together to ensure the operation of the locomotive in all aspects. In the precise monitoring and basic guarantee module, the external monitoring device always keeps a close eye on the auxiliary machine circuit and trips the circuit breaker when there is a leakage.

[0053] Among them, the precise monitoring and basic guarantee module includes:
[0054] (1) External monitoring module: Use a high-precision leakage current monitoring device to monitor the auxiliary machine circuit leakage current in real time. Once it exceeds the standard, the circuit breaker is immediately disconnected to cut off the power circuit to ensure power safety;
[0055] (2) Auxiliary machine leakage control module: It uses a fast processing microcontroller to respond quickly to leakage, and the buzzer and LED indicator of the alarm part directly indicate abnormalities;
[0056] (3) Power module: With the help of isolation transformer and voltage stabilization circuit, it can provide stable power supply to the device under different voltage fluctuations.
[0057] The external monitoring module uses a high-precision leakage current monitoring device to track the leakage current of the auxiliary machine circuit in real time. Once the current exceeds the standard, it can decisively disconnect the circuit breaker in an instant and quickly cut off the power circuit, building the first solid line of defense for power safety; the auxiliary machine leakage main control module is equipped with a fast-processing microcontroller, which can respond quickly when encountering leakage, and at the same time send out intuitive abnormal warnings through the buzzer and LED indicator. The power module, with the help of an isolation transformer and a voltage stabilizing circuit, ensures that the device can obtain stable power supply under different voltage fluctuations.
[0058] Among them, the self-inspection and maintenance reminder module refers to the regular voice reminders to inform the maintenance personnel to check the working status of the device in time, such as whether the monitoring accuracy and alarm function are normal, so as to ensure that the device can always operate continuously, stably and efficiently.
[0059] Self-check maintenance reminder module. According to the preset cycle, it regularly sends clear voice reminders to urge maintenance personnel to verify the device status, not only paying attention to whether there are deviations in the monitoring accuracy, but also checking whether the alarm function is sensitive and reliable, so as to comprehensively ensure that the device always maintains the best state of continuous, stable and efficient operation.
[0060] Among them, the multi-channel flexible monitoring module includes:
[0061] (1) Multi-channel monitoring start: After the detection and protection device is started, it automatically activates the multi-switch simultaneous monitoring function to prepare for comprehensively grasping the operation status of the auxiliary machines. It has a powerful monitoring ability and can simultaneously monitor the status of up to 16 auxiliary machines in real time;
[0062] (2) Personalized configuration: Fully considering the diverse needs of users, it supports flexibly configuring the number of monitored auxiliary machines according to the actual usage scenario to ensure accurate adaptation to the monitoring requirements of different locomotives;
[0063] (3) Abnormality response: During the continuous monitoring of the multi-channel auxiliary machine circuit, once any abnormal switch is detected, the locomotive auxiliary machine leakage monitoring and protection device responds quickly, immediately triggers an audible and visual alarm to alert the staff, and at the same time automatically stores the historical record of this abnormality to provide a basis for subsequent fault troubleshooting.
[0064] First, in the multi-channel monitoring start stage, at the moment when the device is started, it automatically activates the powerful multi-switch simultaneous monitoring function, which can simultaneously keep an eye on the real-time status of up to 16 auxiliary machines at most, laying a foundation for accurately grasping the overall situation; Secondly, the personalized configuration link fully demonstrates its user-friendly design, which can flexibly adjust the number of monitored auxiliary machines according to different locomotive types and operation scenarios, perfectly adapting to diverse needs; Finally, in the case of abnormality response, once any abnormal switch is detected, it immediately triggers an audible and visual alarm, and at the same time quickly stores the fault information, providing key "clues" for subsequent maintenance personnel to troubleshoot problems, comprehensively ensuring the trouble-free operation of the locomotive auxiliary machines.
[0065] Among them, the real-time interaction control module includes:
[0066] (1) Real-time monitoring and judgment: The operator monitors the operation status of the locomotive auxiliary machines through the man-machine interface equipped with the device, and can accurately lock the leaking auxiliary machine based on the real-time collected data, providing an accurate target for subsequent emergency handling;
[0067] (2) Automatic power-off isolation: Once the leaking auxiliary machine is determined, the man-machine interaction system immediately issues an instruction to the execution module, automatically starts the power-off procedure, quickly cuts off the circuit connection of the leaking auxiliary machine, and implements effective isolation.
[0068] The real-time interaction control module, as the "central brain" of the locomotive auxiliary leakage monitoring and protection device, plays a crucial role. On the one hand, in the real-time monitoring and judgment process, operators, with the help of the man-machine interface, closely monitor the operation dynamics of the auxiliary machines in real time. By virtue of precise algorithms and based on real-time data, they can instantly identify the leaking auxiliary machines and indicate the emergency direction. On the other hand, the automatic power-off isolation link responds quickly. Once the target is locked, it immediately sends a command to the execution module, cutting off the circuit and isolating the hidden danger like lightning to ensure the safety of the locomotive.
[0069] Among them, the complete historical record module includes:
[0070] (1) Fault information storage: During the operation of the locomotive auxiliary leakage monitoring and protection device, once a fault is detected, the information collection program is immediately started; it precisely captures key fault information such as the fault number, car number, car end, fault point, and fault time, and stores them orderly in the internal storage unit, which can accommodate up to one thousand historical records, providing a data basis for subsequent analysis.
[0071] (2) Reverse order query and display: The built-in sorting algorithm of the device will arrange the stored fault information according to the rule of reverse time order, ensuring that the most recently occurred fault information is preferentially displayed at the forefront, facilitating users to quickly understand the potential risks of recent equipment operation.
[0072] (3) Paging browsing and deletion: Facing the historical records arranged in reverse order, users can easily browse the past data through the paging buttons on the operation interface. If they find that some records are no longer needed, they can directly perform the deletion operation on this interface to independently manage the historical records and maintain the efficient utilization of the storage unit.
[0073] The complete historical record module endows the locomotive auxiliary leakage monitoring and protection device with powerful "memory" and convenient query and management capabilities.
[0074] In terms of fault information storage, when the device is running, it is like a rigorous recorder. Once a fault occurs, it immediately starts the collection program, precisely grabs key information such as the fault number and car number, and stores them orderly in the storage unit that can accommodate one thousand records, laying a solid data foundation for in-depth analysis. The reverse order query and display function is like a considerate assistant. The built-in sorting algorithm arranges the fault information in reverse time order, with the latest potential risks at the top, helping users clearly see the recent risks at a glance. The paging browsing and deletion operation is even more convenient. Users can easily look back at the past by pressing the paging button and directly delete the useless records, enabling the storage unit to always serve efficiently and continuously empower equipment maintenance and optimization.
[0075] Among them, the wide-voltage adaptation power supply module means that the locomotive auxiliary leakage monitoring and protection device is powered by DC110V and supports input in the wide voltage range of DC60V to DC140V.
[0076] The wide-voltage adaptation power supply module can be regarded as the power support of the locomotive auxiliary leakage monitoring and protection device. It adopts the DC110V power supply standard and, with its excellent adaptation ability, can stably accept the wide-voltage input of DC60V - DC140V to ensure the stable operation of the device in the complex and changeable locomotive power supply environment.

With its display and touch functions, it presents the multi-channel switch status in real time on the main interface, enabling the operator to clearly see the on-off status of each auxiliary machine line at a glance. At the same time, the RTC clock and the buzzer status are also clearly displayed, providing accurate time reference for users and understanding the alarm preparation status to ensure the basic control of the equipment operation.
[0079] (2) Function setting operation: Users can first accurately set the vehicle information, mainly covering the input and adjustment of the vehicle number and vehicle end to ensure that the equipment is accurately adapted to the corresponding locomotive. On this interface, the buzzer can also be flexibly controlled to turn off or turn on its alarm output function according to the actual scenario requirements to meet the usage preferences in different environments and achieve personalized configuration.
[0080] (3) Auxiliary function application: When a switch failure is detected and the buzzer is in the alarm state, if the user wants to temporarily silence it, they can directly click the buzzer alarm icon on the main interface to quickly eliminate the noise interference and focus on troubleshooting. In addition, considering safety and usage rights, users can also easily modify the password in the setting interface. The password is a four-digit number combination, and the system will immediately feedback the success or failure information after the modification is completed to ensure the effective execution of the operation.
[0081] When the basic information display is turned on, the liquid crystal screen lights up quickly, presenting the multi-channel switch status in an intuitive interface. With a single glance, the operator can clearly understand the on-off status of the auxiliary machine line. The RTC clock and the buzzer status are presented synchronously, laying a solid foundation for operation control; in the function setting operation, users accurately input the vehicle number and vehicle end to make the equipment accurately adapted to the locomotive, and can also turn the buzzer on or off as needed, flexibly coping with both noisy workshops and quiet garages to achieve personalization; during the application of the auxiliary function, when the fault alarm noise is disturbing, just click the buzzer icon to silence it and focus on troubleshooting; for safety considerations, the four-digit password can be easily modified, and the system will immediately feedback to ensure the rigorous and effective operation.
