TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of signal systems in rail transit, and more particularly to a method for unlocking a continuation route composed of multiple sub-routes. BACKGROUND
[0002] Currently, the continuation route in the railway signal system is mainly used to prevent the train from rolling away after stopping on a steep slope section. The common unlocking methods include automatic delay unlocking and manual delay unlocking. However, the existing technology has the following problems: The unlocking is only for the case where the continuation route has only one segment. When the continuation route is composed of multiple sub-routes, it is not possible to distinguish the use state of each sub-route, resulting in too rigid unlocking.
[0003] Lack of dynamic scene adaptability: When a part of the continuation route has been converted into a departure route, the existing solution lacks targeted unlocking logic, affecting the operation efficiency.
[0004] Cannot support multi-segment delay transmission: Only single-segment delay automatic unlocking conditions are supported, and manual intervention is required for each segment (such as manual delay unlocking for each segment) when unlocking the multi-segment continuation route, which seriously affects the efficiency of station operation.
[0005] In the prior art, a patent with publication number CN114261428A discloses a processing method for unlocking a continuation route after a fault or conversion to a departure route, including the following steps: step S1, continuation route establishment process; step S2, continuation route unlocking logic processing process; step S3, continuation route unlocking logic output process. Compared with the prior art, the present application has the advantages of greatly balancing safety and efficiency. However, it only solves the unlocking problem of single-segment continuation route fault or conversion to departure, but does not consider the differentiated processing of sub-routes of multi-segment continuation route. SUMMARY
[0006] In order to overcome the defects in the prior art, the present application discloses a method for unlocking a continuation route composed of multiple sub-routes. The purpose of the present application is to solve the problem of not considering the differentiated processing of sub-routes of multi-segment continuation route in the prior art. The present application has the following advantages: segmented unlocking adaptability: different unlocking logics are executed according to the nature of the sub-routes. Dynamic scene adaptation: supports flexible unlocking mode when the sub-routes are converted into departure routes. Multi-segment condition transmission: realizes automatic transmission of unlocking conditions in each segment of the continuation route, reducing manual intervention.
[0007] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present application is as follows: A method for unlocking a continuation route composed of multiple sub-routes, comprising: The car receiving route unlocking: the car receiving route and the continuation route are handled, and then it is judged whether the train is completely pressed into the track. If yes, the car receiving route is directly unlocked. If no, the total person unlocking / total cancel operation is executed, and then the car receiving route is unlocked. The continuation route is composed of multiple continuation sub-routes; The continuation route unlocking: for the continuation route without the nature of train dispatching, the first continuation sub-route is automatically unlocked with time delay, ramp unlocked and person-unlocked with time delay, and the non-first continuation sub-route is unlocked with transmission, cancel immediate unlocking and person-unlocked with time delay. For the continuation route with the nature of train dispatching, the first continuation sub-route is unlocked with person-cancel immediate unlocking and person-unlocked with time delay, and the non-first continuation sub-route is unlocked with person-unlocked with time delay and cancel immediate unlocking.

After the car receiving route and the continuation route are handled, the train passes through the handled car receiving route according to the indication of the car receiving route signal and the position sequence of the turnout, crosses the terminal signal of the car receiving route, and occupies the track. The train has entered the track by using the car receiving operation, and the car receiving route is directly unlocked. After the car receiving route and the continuation route are handled, if the train does not need to be used due to some reasons, the handled car receiving route and the continuation route are canceled. It is considered that the train uses the car receiving operation but does not enter the track. The total person unlocking / total cancel operation is executed, and then the car receiving route is unlocked.
[0009] II. Continuation route unlocking Preferably, in the continuation route unlocking, based on the real-time data of the route state monitoring, the unlocking conditions and the mutual relationship of each continuation sub-route are automatically analyzed according to the preset safety rules and logical algorithms, and the reasonable unlocking time delay is dynamically calculated to unlock the route.

[0034] Figure 1 The present application is a multi-section continuous car receiving route usage state detection process; Figure 2 The present application is a multi-section continuous unlocking logic decision-making process; Figure 3 The present application is a multi-section continuous example. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0035] The concept, specific structure and resulting technical effects of the present application will be described clearly and completely in the following embodiments and drawings, so as to fully understand the purpose, features and effects of the present application.
[0036] An unlocking method for a continuous route composed of multiple sub-routes, as shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 The method mainly includes two stages: ① Multi-section continuous car receiving route usage state detection The multi-section continuous car receiving route contains a 1:6 ramp, as shown in Figure 3 After the car receiving route and the multi-section continuous route are handled, the train follows the car receiving route signal indication, passes through the handled route according to the position sequence of the turnout, and crosses the terminal signal of the route to occupy the track. Then the train has used the car receiving operation to enter the track.
[0037] The approach is cancelled after the car approach is handled for some reason and is not needed for use. The train uses the car approach operation, but does not enter the track.
[0038] The multi-section continuation car is composed of the approach start, the approach end, the track section, and the turnout.
[0039] S1. The car approach contains a 1 / 600 slope. The car approach and the corresponding continuation approach have been handled. The train is set to pass through the approach according to the position of the turnout in the car approach and cross the approach end. The track is occupied.
[0040] S2. The car approach contains a 1 / 600 slope. The car approach and the corresponding continuation approach have been handled. The approach cancellation operation is set, and the approach is cancelled.
[0041] ② Multi-section continuation unlocking logic decision As the intelligent core of the system, this module automatically analyzes the unlocking conditions and mutual relationships of each sub-section based on the real-time data provided by the approach state monitoring module, according to the preset safety rules and logic algorithms, and dynamically calculates the reasonable unlocking delay to unlock the approach. By detecting the train position and running state, the module determines whether to use automatic unlocking or manual unlocking, ensuring that the unlocking decision not only meets the safety criteria but also considers operational efficiency. Its multi-level judgment system not only ensures the correct execution of basic unlocking logic, but also effectively handles various special scenarios and abnormal situations, making it a key hub for ensuring train operation safety and improving operational efficiency.
[0042] Multi-section continuation refers to a continuation approach composed of several continuation sub-approaches, defined as the first, second, …, and Nth continuation sub-approaches from the continuation approach start to the end. Each sub-approach is composed of the approach start, the approach end, the track section, and the turnout.
[0043] The continuation approach without departure properties refers to the first continuation sub-approach that cannot perform the re-opening signal operation and cannot open the signal.
[0044] The continuation approach with departure properties refers to the first continuation sub-approach that performs the re-opening signal operation and opens the signal.
[0045] Continuation sub-approach failure refers to the occupation of a section in the sub-approach or the turnout position not being in the required position of the sub-approach.
[0046] According to the train running direction, the sub-approach used by the train is defined as the rear sub-approach of the currently used sub-approach, and the sub-approach not used is defined as the front sub-approach of the currently used sub-approach.
[0047] Normal locking and fault locking of sub-route means the state of all sections in the sub-route: after the extension route is handled, all sections in the sub-route are in a normal locking state, and when the sub-route cannot be unlocked due to a fault, the state of all sections in the sub-route is changed from the normal locking state to the fault locking state.
[0048] The sub-route has the property of train dispatching means that the sub-route is executed with the reopening signal operation, and the signal is opened by the reopening signal operation of the sub-route or the rear sub-route of the sub-route.
[0049] For the extension route without the property of train dispatching, when the extension route is composed of multiple train sub-routes: The unlocking operation steps of the first segment of the extension sub-route are as follows: 1) Automatic delay unlocking S1.1 detects that the train passes through the route according to the position sequence of the turnout in the receiving route and crosses the terminal of the route to occupy the track; S1.2 detects that the train route end section and the track where the track are normally excited by the track power-off relay; When the above conditions are met, start the 180s countdown; Countdown end processing; S1.3 detects the state of the first segment of the extension sub-route: Sub-route without fault → immediately unlock the sub-route, and set the sub-route unlocking flag; Sub-route fault → execute the following operations: a) Fault sub-route and all fault sections in front of it → change to fault locking; b) Non-fault sub-route → keep normal locking.
[0050] S1.4 Cross-track special rules ① When the train crosses the track and detects any of the following conditions: The receiving route end section or the track where the track is located is not attracted by the track power-off relay; → Inhibit the start of the countdown.
[0051] ② If the track power-off relay is detected again during the crossing: → Immediately start the 180s countdown (the track power-off relay falls again during the countdown without interrupting the countdown).
[0052] ③ When the condition in ① is met and the condition in ② is not met, the train completely enters the track after the fault is recovered: → No countdown is started.
[0053] 2) Slope unlocking S2.1 detects that the first segment of the extension sub-route is being automatically delayed; S2.2 Detects that the train has used the complete receiving route and the train has completely entered the siding and the receiving route has been unlocked; S2.3 Detects that all sub-routes of the continuation route are not faulty; S2.4 Performs the ramp unlocking operation: → Interrupts the countdown of the automatic delay.
[0054] → The first sub-route of the continuation route is immediately unlocked and the sub-route unlocking flag is set.
[0055] 3) Cancel unlocking S3.1 Detects that the train has used the complete receiving route and the train has completely entered the siding and the receiving route has been unlocked or the receiving route is manually cancelled; S3.2 Detects that the "total manual operation" command is received; When the above conditions are met, the first sub-route of the continuation route starts a 180-second countdown; Countdown end processing; S3.3 Detects the state of the first sub-route of the continuation route at the end of the countdown: Sub-route is not faulty → The sub-route is immediately unlocked and the sub-route unlocking flag is set; Sub-route is faulty → The sub-route and the faulty sub-route in front are turned into fault locking, and the non-faulty sub-route remains normal locking.
[0056] The unlocking operation steps of the non-first sub-route are as follows: 4) Transfer unlocking S4.1 Detects that the rear adjacent sub-route is set with the sub-route unlocking flag; S4.2 Detects that the current sub-route meets: no departure nature and the sub-route section is idle and the turnout position is at the required position of the sub-route; S4.3 When the above conditions are met, the sub-route is unlocked and the sub-route unlocking flag is set, and S4.1 is repeatedly executed until all sub-routes are unlocked or S4.2 is not met.
[0057] 5) Manual cancellation of immediate unlocking and delay unlocking S5.1 Detects that the train is pressed into the first sub-route of the continuation route with no departure nature: → The second sub-route of the continuation route needs to check whether the first sub-route has been unlocked; → If the second sub-route is not unlocked, the third sub-route of the continuation route needs to check whether the first sub-route or the second sub-route has been unlocked; → If the first sub-route or the second sub-route has been unlocked, the third sub-route does not need to check whether the first sub-route or the second sub-route has been unlocked; → By analogy, the Nth segment unlocking must check whether at least one of the front 1~N-1 segments has been unlocked.
[0058] S5.2 Detects that the above condition is met, the sub-route is immediately unlocked, and the sub-route unlocking flag is set.
[0059] S5.3 Detects that the adjacent sub-route behind the sub-route is open; S5.4 Detects that the adjacent behind the train pressure; S5.5 Detects that the total person in the sub-route of this section is executed; The above S5.3~5.5 conditions are met, and the sub-route of this section is started 180s countdown; Countdown end processing sub-route state: Sub-route without fault→ immediately unlock the sub-route.
[0060] Sub-route fault→ the sub-route is converted to fault locking.
[0061] For the continuation route with the nature of departure, when the continuation route is composed of multiple continuation sub-routes: The first sub-route is unlocked: Scenario A: the train does not press into the track, and the receiving route is used up: S6.1 Detects that the receiving route has been used up; S6.2 Detects that the train does not occupy the track; S6.3 Detects that the total cancel / total person resolution command is received; The above conditions are met, and the first sub-route is immediately unlocked.
[0062] Scenario B: the train has entered the track, and the receiving route is used up: S6.4 Detects that the receiving route has been used up; S6.5 Detects that the train occupies the track; S6.6 Detects that the total person resolution command is received; → The above conditions are met, and the first sub-route starts 180s countdown; → The countdown ends, and the first sub-route is immediately unlocked if there is no fault, otherwise it is converted to fault locking.
[0063] Non-first sub-route is unlocked: S6.7 Detects that the train presses into the adjacent continuation sub-route behind; S6.8 Detects that the total person resolution command is received; → The above conditions are met, and the sub-route starts 180s countdown; → The countdown ends, and the sub-route is immediately unlocked if there is no fault, otherwise it is converted to fault locking.
[0064] S6.9 Detects that the sub-route behind has been unlocked; S6.8 Detects that the total person resolution / total cancel command is received; → The above conditions are met, and the child route is immediately unlocked.

The unlocking method for a continuous path composed of multiple segments as described in claim 1, characterized in that, Cancellation and immediate unlocking of non-first segment continuation subroutines of continuation routes that do not have departure characteristics include: When a train is detected entering the first continuous sub-routes that do not have departure characteristics: Unlocking the Nth segment of the continuation sub-path requires checking that at least one segment of the continuation sub-paths from the 1st to the N-1th segments has already been unlocked; If a continuation sub-path that meets the above conditions is detected, it will be unlocked immediately, and a continuation sub-path unlock flag will be set.
8. The unlocking method for a continuous path composed of multiple segments as described in claim 1, characterized in that, For non-first segment continuation subroutines of continuation routes that do not have departure characteristics, the human-assisted time-delay unlocking includes: An open adjacent continuation sub-path was detected following the continuation sub-path; The train was detected to have entered the adjacent continuation sub-path behind it; The system detects that the current sub-path continues and executes the overall solution operation. When all the above detection conditions are met, the continuation sub-path starts a T-second countdown. After the countdown ends, the status of the continuation sub-path is checked. If the continuation sub-path is functioning correctly, unlock the continuation sub-path immediately. If a sub-path fault occurs, the sub-path will be switched to fault-locked.
9. The unlocking method for a continuous path composed of multiple segments as described in claim 1, characterized in that, The first segment of a continuing sub-route with departure characteristics undergoes immediate unlocking upon cancellation, including: The train did not enter the track. After using the receiving route: The vehicle reception route has been detected as already in use. The train was detected not to be obstructing the tracks; The system detected that a total cancellation / total release command had been received. If all the above detection conditions are met, the first segment of the continuation sub-path will be unlocked immediately; The first segment of the extended sub-routes with departure characteristics undergoes a human-assisted, time-delayed unlocking process, including: The train has entered the track. After using the receiving route: The vehicle reception route has been detected as already in use. Train detected occupying track; The system received a total personnel release order; If all the above testing conditions are met, the first segment of the continuation sub-path will start a T-second countdown. If there is no fault in the first segment of the continuation sub-path after the countdown ends, it will be unlocked immediately; otherwise, it will switch to fault lockout.
10. The unlocking method for a continuous path composed of multiple segments as described in claim 1, characterized in that, For non-first segment continuation sub-routes with departure characteristics, the human-assisted time-delay unlocking includes: The train was detected to have entered the adjacent continuation sub-path behind it; The system received a total personnel release order; If all the above detection conditions are met, the continuation sub-path will start a T-second countdown. If there is no fault in the continuation sub-path after the countdown ends, it will be unlocked immediately; otherwise, it will switch to fault lockout. Cancellation and immediate unlocking of non-first segment continuation subroutines with departure characteristics include: The subsequent continuation sub-path has been detected as unlocked. The system detected that a total release / cancellation command had been received. If all the above detection conditions are met, the continuation sub-path will be unlocked immediately.
