Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of railway equipment monitoring technology, and in particular to a method and system for turnout status monitoring and fault prediction based on multi-source curves. Background Technology
[0002] Turnouts are crucial railway signaling devices, primarily composed of switches (including point rails), connecting rails, frogs, and guard rails. The point rails guide train wheels to turn by swinging left and right. The efficient and accurate operation of turnouts directly impacts train operating efficiency and safety. Existing technology uses operating current curves to characterize the change in operating current during the entire operation of the turnout. However, considering that this operating current corresponds to the operating current of the motor driving the turnout, these operating current curves only reflect the motor's own response and drive output states, such as whether there is a response delay and the magnitude of the motor's drive output torque. They cannot truly reflect the mechanical hardware condition of the turnout itself. Hardware components within the turnout, especially the point rails, experience wear and tear during prolonged and repeated operation. Operating current curves alone cannot accurately identify hardware faults in the turnout, reducing the reliability and accuracy of turnout monitoring. Therefore, how to dynamically monitor and predict turnout faults at the hardware level is of great significance for improving the electrical and mechanical safety of turnouts. Summary of the Invention
[0003] Given that existing technologies, relying on a single operating current curve, can only monitor the electrical performance of turnouts, they cannot promptly and accurately detect hardware faults formed during long-term, repeated switching of turnout components, thus reducing the reliability and accuracy of turnout monitoring. In view of the above problems, this invention is proposed to provide a turnout condition monitoring and fault prediction method based on multi-source curves that overcomes or at least partially solves the above problems, including:
[0004] Step S1: Collect current data during turnout operation to generate operating current curve; calibrate the time-domain characteristics of several operating sub-intervals of the turnout from the operating current curve.
[0005] Step S2: Monitor the electrical status of the turnout and determine the working start node of the turnout; based on the working start node and the time domain characteristics, collect the motion image set of the turnout itself and the motor output detection dataset of the turnout;
[0006] Step S3: Based on the motion image set and the motor output detection dataset, generate motion parameter curves and output action parameter curves; compare the motion parameter curves and output action parameter curves of the turnout during several working periods to determine the abnormal motion switching events of the turnout;
[0007] Step S4: Based on the abnormal event of the action switching, predict the fault status of the turnout, and generate an early warning notification accordingly.
[0008] Optionally, in step S1, current data during turnout operation is collected to generate an operating current curve; the time-domain characteristics of several operating sub-intervals of the turnout are calibrated from the operating current curve, including:
[0009] Monitor the operating status of the starting electrical equipment of the turnout to determine whether the turnout has entered the working cycle;
[0010] Collect the full-process current data of the turnout during several working cycles, identify the time-domain distribution of interference intensity of the full-process current data of each working cycle, and determine the reliability of the full-process current data of each working cycle.
[0011] By comparing the reliability of all current data throughout the entire process, the effective operating current curve of the turnout is generated.
[0012] The effective operating current curve is subjected to time-domain change identification to determine all turning points of the effective operating current curve; based on all turning points, the time range characteristics covered by several working sub-intervals of the turnout are marked; wherein the several working sub-intervals correspond one-to-one with several hardware operation stages of the turnout.
[0013] Optionally, in step S2, the electrical state of the turnout is monitored to determine the turnout's operating start point; based on the operating start point and the time-domain characteristics, a set of motion images of the turnout itself and a set of motor output detection data of the turnout are collected, including:
[0014] The starting electrical equipment of the turnout is monitored to receive the trigger command, and the time point when the trigger command is successfully executed is taken as the working start node of the turnout;
[0015] Taking the work start node as the starting time point, and based on the time range of the one-to-one correspondence of the several working sub-intervals contained in the time domain features, adjust the time domain change strategy for the shooting parameters of the actual scene where the turnout is located and the time domain change strategy for the detection of the motor output of the turnout.
[0016] Based on the time-domain variation strategy of the shooting parameters and the time-domain variation strategy of the motor output detection, the action image set of the turnout itself and the motor output detection dataset of the turnout are collected; wherein the action image set includes a subset of several turnout entity action images corresponding one-to-one with the several working sub-sections, and the motor output detection dataset includes a subset of several motor output torque data corresponding one-to-one with the several working sub-sections.
[0017] Optionally, in step S3, based on the motion image set and the motor output detection dataset, motion parameter curves and output action parameter curves are generated; by comparing the motion parameter curves and output action parameter curves of the turnout during several working periods, abnormal motion switching events of the turnout are determined, including:
[0018] The action image subsets of all turnout entities under the action image set are identified to obtain several action trajectories of the turnout entities corresponding to the several working sub-intervals, and then integrated to generate action parameter curves.
[0019] The motor output torque data subset under the motor output detection dataset is integrated according to time sequence to generate an output action parameter curve;
[0020] By comparing the action parameter curves and output action parameter curves of the turnout during the same working period, the trajectory deviation between the expected turnout action trajectory generated by the motor output torque during the same working period and the actual turnout action trajectory is obtained.
[0021] By comparing the trajectory deviation of the turnout over a certain period of time, the cumulative trajectory offset of the turnout during a certain hardware operation phase is determined, thereby identifying the abnormal event of the turnout's operation switching.
[0022] Optionally, in step S4, based on the abnormal event of the action switch, the fault state of the turnout is predicted, thereby generating an early warning notification, including:
[0023] Based on the hardware action stage of the turnout corresponding to the abnormal action switching event, identify the potential wear components of the turnout.
[0024] Based on the deviation trend of the movement trajectory of the potentially worn components during the aforementioned operating periods, the timing information of the turnout failure is predicted, thereby generating an early warning notification.

[0063] Please see Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of this application provides a turnout condition monitoring and fault prediction method based on multi-source curves. This turnout condition monitoring and fault prediction method based on multi-source curves includes:
[0064] Step S1: Collect current data during turnout operation to generate operating current curve; calibrate the time-domain characteristics of several operating sub-intervals of the turnout from the operating current curve.
[0065] Step S2: Monitor the electrical status of the turnout and determine the turnout's working start point; based on the working start point and time domain characteristics, collect the turnout's own motion image set and the turnout's motor output detection dataset;
[0066] Step S3: Based on the motion image set and the motor output detection dataset, generate motion parameter curves and output action parameter curves; compare the motion parameter curves and output action parameter curves of the turnout during several working periods to determine the abnormal motion switching events of the turnout.
[0067] Step S4: Based on the abnormal event of action switching, predict the fault status of the turnout and generate an early warning notification accordingly.
[0068] This multi-source curve-based turnout condition monitoring and fault prediction method delineates all working sub-intervals of the turnout by constructing an operating current curve, thereby constructing the turnout's operating parameter curve and the motor's output operating parameter curve. By using multiple curves to characterize hardware anomalies of the turnout, it accurately predicts potential faults and improves the electrical and mechanical safety of the turnout.
[0069] In another embodiment, in step S1, current data during turnout operation is collected to generate an operating current curve; the time-domain characteristics of several operating sub-intervals of the turnout are calibrated from the operating current curve, including:
[0070] Monitor the operating status of the starting electrical equipment of the turnout to determine whether the turnout has entered the working cycle;
[0071] Collect the full-process current data of the turnout during several working cycles, identify the time-domain distribution of interference intensity of the full-process current data of each working cycle, and determine the reliability of the full-process current data of each working cycle.
[0072] By comparing the reliability of all current data throughout the entire process, the effective operating current curve of the turnout is generated.
[0073] The effective operating current curve is subjected to time-domain variation identification to determine all inflection points of the effective operating current curve; based on all inflection points, the time range characteristics covered by several working sub-sections of the turnout are calibrated; and the several working sub-sections correspond one-to-one with several hardware operation stages of the turnout.
[0074] In the above technical solution, the main components of the turnout include the switch (including the switch rail), connecting rail, frog, and guard rail. In actual operation, a three-phase AC motor or other electric motor can be used to drive the turnout, especially the switch rail. The electric motor provides a matching driving force to the switch according to the required wheel steering size and direction, and the driving force depends on the size of the electric motor. Furthermore, the turnout is triggered when wheel steering is required; at other times, the turnout is in a non-operating state. That is, the electric motor is only supplied with the corresponding driving current when the turnout is triggered, and the magnitude of the driving current directly reflects the actual operating state of the turnout. Specifically, when the driving current is within a certain range, the turnout is in the corresponding hardware operation stage (i.e., the switch rail operation stage).
[0075] To determine the time range corresponding to all hardware operation stages of the turnout within its entire working cycle, full-process current data of the turnout is first collected during several working cycles (i.e., the working cycle corresponding to each time the turnout is triggered and enters the working state). The full-process current data corresponding to each working cycle reflects the magnitude of the current applied to the turnout by the motor. During the operation of the turnout driven by the motor, internal and external factors affect the collected full-process current data, resulting in noise interference that obscures the magnitude changes in the current due to driving requirements. To accurately divide all working sub-intervals of the turnout within a complete working cycle, the time-domain distribution of interference intensity is identified for the full-process current data of each working cycle, i.e., the average interference noise intensity of the full-process current data over the entire time range is determined. This determines the reliability of the full-process current data; it can be understood that the lower the average interference noise intensity, the higher the reliability. By comparing the reliability of all full-process current data, the full-process current data with the lowest reliability is used as the original data to generate the effective operating current curve of the turnout. That is, the effective operating current curve reflects the change of current magnitude over time in the full-process current data with the lowest reliability.
[0076] The operation of a turnout (especially a switch rail) driven by an electric motor is a dynamic process. The movement of the switch rail from its initial position to its target position includes multiple action stages, such as unlocking, switching, locking, and release. In each of these stages, the driving current applied by the motor differs. By identifying the time-domain changes in the effective operating current curve, all inflection points of the effective operating current curve are determined. These inflection points can be, but are not limited to, the curve's inflection points. Then, based on all these inflection points, the time axis of the effective operating current curve is divided into several working sub-intervals of the turnout, each covering a specific time range. It can be understood that each working sub-interval corresponds to one hardware action stage; that is, all working sub-intervals correspond one-to-one with the unlocking, switching, locking, and release stages. By defining the time range characteristics covered by each working sub-interval, a time reference is provided for subsequent time-domain change analysis and comparison of the action parameter curves and output action parameter curves.
[0077] In another embodiment, in step S2, the electrical state of the turnout is monitored to determine the turnout's operating start point; based on the operating start point and time-domain characteristics, a set of motion images of the turnout itself and a set of motor output detection data of the turnout are collected, including:
[0078] The electrical equipment for monitoring the start of the turnout receives the trigger command and takes the time when the trigger command is successfully executed as the start node of the turnout.
[0079] Starting from the work start node, and based on the time range of several working sub-intervals contained in the time domain characteristics, adjust the time domain change strategy for the shooting parameters of the actual scene where the turnout is located and the time domain change strategy for the detection of the motor output of the turnout.
[0080] Based on the time-domain variation strategy of shooting parameters and the time-domain variation strategy of motor output detection, a set of motion images of the turnout itself and a set of motor output detection data of the turnout are collected; the motion image set includes a subset of motion images of several turnout entities corresponding one-to-one with several working sub-sections, and the motor output detection data set includes a subset of motor output torque data corresponding one-to-one with several working sub-sections.
[0081] In the above technical solution, the operating current curve only reflects the electrical performance of the turnout and the motor. However, as a hardware device, the turnout inevitably experiences wear during repeated operation over a long period, leading to response delays and failure to move to the target position under the same motor drive, thus reducing the turnout's reliability and accuracy. To identify turnout anomalies at the mechanical hardware level, during actual turnout operation, the trigger commands (such as electrical pulse commands received by the relay device) received by the turnout's starting electrical equipment (such as relay devices) are monitored. The time point at which the starting electrical equipment successfully executes the corresponding engagement action after responding to the trigger command is taken as the turnout's working start (time) node.
[0082] After the turnout successfully operates, using the aforementioned work start (time) node as the starting time point, and combining the various time ranges covered by the aforementioned sub-intervals, the time-domain variation strategy for the shooting parameters of the actual scene where the turnout is located and the time-domain variation strategy for the turnout's motor output detection are adjusted. It can be understood that the aforementioned time-domain variation strategy for shooting parameters refers to the strategy for changing the actual shooting parameters (such as shooting focal length and / or shooting field of view) of the turnout operation within the aforementioned time range, starting from the aforementioned starting time point; the aforementioned time-domain variation strategy for motor output detection refers to the strategy for changing the detection parameters (such as detection sensitivity and / or detection sampling frequency) of the motor output (torque) within the aforementioned time range, starting from the aforementioned starting time point. Then, based on the aforementioned time-domain variation strategies for shooting parameters and motor output detection, the turnout's own action image set and the turnout's motor output detection dataset are collected respectively, thereby obtaining several subsets of turnout entity action images and several subsets of motor output torque data corresponding to several sub-intervals, providing sufficient data for subsequent identification of the turnout's hardware wear status.
[0083] In another embodiment, in step S3, motion parameter curves and output action parameter curves are generated based on the motion image set and the motor output detection dataset; by comparing the motion parameter curves and output action parameter curves of the turnout during several working periods, abnormal motion switching events of the turnout are determined, including:
[0084] The action image subsets of all turnout entities under the action image set are identified to obtain several action trajectories of several working sub-intervals corresponding to the turnout entities, and these are integrated to generate action parameter curves.
[0085] The output torque data subsets of the motor output detection dataset are integrated according to time sequence to generate output action parameter curves.
[0086] By comparing the action parameter curves and output action parameter curves of the turnout during the same working period, the trajectory deviation between the expected turnout action trajectory generated by the motor output torque during the same working period and the actual turnout action trajectory is obtained.
[0087] By comparing the trajectory deviation of the turnout over a certain period of time, the cumulative trajectory offset of the turnout during a certain hardware operation stage is determined, thereby identifying abnormal events in the turnout's operation switching.
[0088] In the above technical solution, the motion image set and the motor output detection dataset correspond to the motion state of the turnout's hardware components (especially the switch rail) and the torque state output by the motor to the aforementioned hardware components, respectively, during actual operation. To this end, the motion image subsets of all turnout entities under the motion image set are identified to obtain several motion trajectories for several working sub-intervals corresponding to the turnout entities. All motion trajectories are integrated to generate motion parameter curves (i.e., continuous curves showing the change of motion trajectory position over time). Similarly, the motor output torque data subsets under the motor output detection dataset are integrated according to time sequence to generate output action parameter curves (i.e., continuous curves showing the change of output torque magnitude over time). Understandably, considering that the hardware wear of a turnout is a relatively long process, curve analysis is needed over multiple operating periods of the turnout (i.e., during which the turnout performs multiple wheel steering tasks over time). Specifically, by comparing the motion parameter curve and output action parameter curve of the turnout during the same operating period, the trajectory deviation between the expected turnout motion trajectory generated by the motor output torque and the actual turnout motion trajectory during the same operating period is obtained. The expected turnout motion trajectory generated by the motor output torque can be determined based on the output action parameter curve; the actual turnout motion trajectory can be determined based on the motion parameter curve. Then, by comparing the trajectory deviation of the turnout over several operating periods over time, the cumulative trajectory offset of the turnout during several hardware operation stages is determined. If the cumulative trajectory offset exceeds a preset offset threshold, it is determined that there is an abnormal action switching event in the turnout; otherwise, it is determined that there is no abnormal action switching event in the turnout. This method allows for accurate determination of the fault state at the hardware level.
[0089] In another embodiment, in step S4, based on the abnormal action switching event, the fault state of the turnout is predicted, thereby generating an early warning notification, including:
[0090] Based on the hardware action stage of the turnout corresponding to the abnormal action switching event, identify the potential wear parts of the turnout.
[0091] Based on the deviation trend of the movement trajectory of potentially worn parts during several working periods, the timing information of turnout failure is predicted, and early warning notifications are generated accordingly.
[0092] In the above technical solution, it is understood that the hardware action stages of the turnout, such as the unlocking stage, switching stage, locking stage, and release stage, require the cooperation of different hardware components inside the turnout. Based on the hardware action stage of the turnout corresponding to the abnormal action switching event, potential wear components of the turnout are identified, thereby accurately determining the mechanical wear condition of the internal hardware components. Furthermore, based on the deviation trend of the movement trajectory of potential wear components during several working periods, the time when the deviation reaches the acceptable deviation limit is estimated, and this time is used as the time information of turnout failure, thereby generating an early warning notification and sending it to the platform to achieve safe monitoring of the turnout.
