Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of train control technology, and in particular to a train route control method, device, equipment, medium and product based on computer interlocking. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technology, when cross-field operations are required, the duty officers of both stations rotate the switches to the designated positions to process the inter-field route. For example, if field A corresponds to a Level 3 train control system and all signals in the station are normally off, while field B corresponds to a Level 2 train control system and all signals in the station are normally on, then for departure routes, all departure signals in field A are normally off. When departing towards the exit, a four-display tracking display is used, meaning that when a block section outside the exit is clear, the departure signal displays yellow. When two block sections outside the exit are clear, the display is green-yellow; when three or more block sections outside the exit are clear, the display is green. When the exit signal in area A changes from off to on, the exit signal changes from a four-display tracking display to a check that all sections of the large section are clear. Trains departing from the exit are always displayed with a green light. The exit signals in area B are always normally on, and when trains departing from the exit, they are displayed with a four-display tracking display. Since all trains depart from the same exit, the display processing is inconsistent. For receiving routes, when receiving a train from the entrance in area A, if the entrance signal changes from off to on, according to the computer interlocking technical requirements, the exit signal in the same direction must be turned on from off to on, and the filament of the exit signal must be checked to be intact. However, when receiving a train from the entrance signal in its lit state to yard B, since the exit signal in yard B is a normally lit signal, there is no logical processing for illuminating the signal or checking the filament integrity. All train reception routes start from the same entrance and proceed to the same track, resulting in inconsistent logical processing. When receiving a train from yard B to yard A, since the entrance signal in yard B is a normally lit signal, whether the exit signal in the same direction needs to be illuminated after the train arrives at the yard B track, and whether the filament integrity of that exit signal needs to be checked, currently depends on different requirements and requires different processing methods.

[0027] Figure 1This is a flowchart of a train route control method based on computer interlocking provided by an embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to the control of routes spanning different train control levels. The computer interlocking includes a first system and a second system, which correspond to the preceding route area and the following route area, respectively. The train control levels of the preceding and following route areas are different. The method is applied to the first system, and this method can be executed by a train route control device based on computer interlocking. This device can be implemented in hardware and / or software and can be configured in the first system. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0028] S110, in response to the route request, receive the second route nature information and the target signal information of the virtual signal machine sent by the second system.

[0029] Route requests include train route requests or shunting route requests. Computer interlocking is a control system used to control train and shunting operations within a station. Train control level refers to the level of the train control system. Target signal information refers to the display information of the virtual signal.

[0030] Specifically, computer interlocking includes a first system and a second system. The first and second systems correspond to the preceding and following route areas, respectively. The train control levels for the preceding and following route areas are different, meaning the first and second systems have different levels. For example, the train control system is a train operation control system, which includes Level 2 and Level 3 train control systems. A Level 2 train control system is a train operation control system based on track circuits and point-to-point equipment for transmitting information, and is mostly used for passenger lines and existing lines with speeds of 200-250 km / h. A Level 3 train control system, based on a Level 2 system, adds wireless block center equipment to achieve two-way information transmission between the train and the ground via a wireless network, and is mostly used for passenger dedicated lines and high-speed railways with speeds of 300-350 km / h. The first system can be a Level 2 train control system, and the second system can be a Level 3 train control system; or, the first system can be a Level 3 train control system, and the second system can be a Level 2 train control system. In response to a route request, the first system receives second route type information and target signal information from the second system. By receiving information about the subsequent route area, it can control the signals of the preceding route area based on that information. This enables the handling of segmented routes, determining the handling method for the preceding route based on the handling method for the subsequent route, thus effectively ensuring the operational safety of routes spanning different train control levels.

[0031] S120. When the target signal information is an open signal, determine whether the first route nature information and the second route nature information are consistent. If they are consistent, send a status adjustment command to the physical signal at the beginning of the route in the front route area so that the physical signal can adjust its display status after receiving the status adjustment command to facilitate train route.

[0032] The virtual signal is set at the turnout insulation joint in the front and rear route areas, and the virtual signal is the virtual signal for the rear route area; the first route nature information and the second route nature information are the route nature information for the front and rear route areas, respectively.

[0033] Optionally, route information includes shunting routes and non-shunting routes; non-shunting routes include trains with lights on, trains with lights off, and trains guided by lights on or without lights off.

[0034] Specifically, when the target signal information is an open signal, it is determined whether the first route nature information and the second route nature information are consistent; when both the first route nature information and the second route nature information are shunting routes, or when both the first route nature information and the second route nature information are non-shunting routes, it is determined that the first route nature information and the second route nature information are consistent; if consistent, a status adjustment command is sent to the physical signal at the beginning of the route in the front route area, so that the physical signal can adjust its display status after receiving the status adjustment command to facilitate train route.

[0035] For example, the specific route control process is illustrated using the train arrival and departure routes between XF and S9, as shown in the station diagram. Figure 2 As shown, IG and IIG correspond to track line 1 and track line 2 respectively. S, XF, SF, and X are entry signals, and XI, SⅠ, XⅡ, SⅡ, X9, and S9 are exit signals. S, XF, SF, X, XⅠ, SⅠ, XⅡ, SⅡ, X9, and S9 are physical signals. Virtual signals XZ1 and SZ1 are set at the insulating joint of turnout #135 and turnout #213. SZ1 is controlled by field A, and XZ1 is controlled by field B. The dashed line is the boundary between field A and field B. The computer interlocking system sets the train arrival and departure routes with the virtual signals as the starting and ending points. The system corresponding to field A sets the arrival route from XF to SZ1 and the departure route from SZ1 to XF. The system corresponding to field B sets the arrival route from XZ1 to S9 and the departure route from S9 to XZ1. Field A's virtual signal controller SZ1 is set to normally be off, and Field B's virtual signal controller XZ1 is set to normally be on.

[0036] In the case of a train departure route, section A is the rear route area, and section B is the front route area. The system corresponding to section A is the second system, and the system corresponding to section B is the first system. The first system receives the second route nature information and the target signal information of the virtual signal SZ1 sent by the second system. When the target signal information is an open signal, it determines whether the first route nature information and the second route nature information are consistent. If they are consistent, it sends a status adjustment command to the physical signal S9 at the beginning of the route in the front route area so that the physical signal can adjust its display status after receiving the status adjustment command to facilitate train route. Since section B is normally lit and section A is normally off, the front route area includes two situations: lit trains and shunting routes. The rear route area includes three situations: lit trains, off-light trains, and shunting routes. When the front route area corresponds to a lit train and the rear route area corresponds to a lit train or an off-light train, or when both the front route area and the rear route area correspond to shunting routes, it is determined that the first route nature information and the second route nature information are consistent.

[0037] In the case of a receiving route, area B is the rear route area, and area A is the front route area. The system corresponding to area B is the second system, and the system corresponding to area A is the first system. The first system receives the second route nature information and the target signal information of the virtual signal XZ1 sent by the second system. When the target signal information is an open signal, it determines whether the first route nature information and the second route nature information are consistent. If they are consistent, it sends a status adjustment command to the physical signal XF at the beginning of the route in the front route area, so that the physical signal adjusts its display after receiving the status adjustment command. The status is determined to facilitate train routes. Since the lights in yard A are normally off and the lights in yard B are normally on, the first route area includes five scenarios: lit trains, unlit trains, lit guidance trains, unlit guidance trains, and shunting routes. The second route area includes three scenarios: lit trains, lit guidance trains, and shunting routes. When the first route area corresponds to lit trains, unlit trains, lit guidance trains, or unlit guidance trains, and the second route area corresponds to lit trains or lit guidance trains, or when both the first and second route areas correspond to shunting routes, the nature information of the first route is determined to be consistent with the nature information of the second route.

[0038] In this embodiment of the invention, in response to a route request, the system receives second route characteristic information and target signal information from a virtual signal sent by the second system. When the target signal information is an open signal, the system determines whether the first route characteristic information and the second route characteristic information are consistent. If they are consistent, a status adjustment command is sent to the physical signal at the beginning of the route in the forward route area, so that the physical signal adjusts its display status upon receiving the status adjustment command to facilitate train route planning. This embodiment of the invention solves the problem of handling routes across train control levels by setting up a virtual signal and computer interlocking control logic, reducing labor costs, improving the efficiency of train operation, and ensuring operational safety.

[0039] Figure 3 This is a flowchart of a train route control method based on computer interlocking provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Based on the above embodiments, this embodiment optimizes the "receiving of second route nature information and target signal information of the virtual signal machine sent by the second system," providing an optional implementation scheme. For example... Figure 3 As shown, the method includes:

[0040] S210, In response to a route request, receive downstream route area information sent by the second system via the secure data network.

[0041] Among them, the safety data network is a network system used for critical safety data transmission such as train control and signal transmission.

[0042] Specifically, in response to a route request, the system receives the subsequent route area information sent by the second system through the safety data network, thereby ensuring the safe transmission of train control information.

[0043] S220. Based on the information of the subsequent route area, determine the nature information of the second route and the target signal information of the virtual signal.

[0044] S230. When the target signal information is an open signal, determine whether the first route nature information and the second route nature information are consistent; if they are consistent, send a status adjustment command to the physical signal at the beginning of the route in the front route area so that the physical signal can adjust its display status after receiving the status adjustment command to facilitate train route.

[0045] The virtual signal is set at the turnout insulation joint in the front and rear route areas, and the virtual signal is the virtual signal for the rear route area; the first route nature information and the second route nature information are the route nature information for the front and rear route areas, respectively.

[0046] Optionally, a status adjustment command is sent to the physical signal at the beginning of the route in the forward route area, so that the physical signal adjusts its display status after receiving the status adjustment command to facilitate train route planning, including:

[0047] A status adjustment command is sent to the physical signal at the beginning of the route in the front route area so that the physical signal adjusts its display status to be consistent with the target signal information after receiving the status adjustment command, so as to facilitate the train route; the status adjustment command includes the target signal information of the virtual signal and the adjustment effective time.

[0048] The status adjustment command is a command to adjust the displayed status of the signal. The adjustment effective time is the time when the adjusted status takes effect.

[0049] Specifically, a status adjustment command is sent to the physical signal at the beginning of the route in the forward route area. Upon receiving the command, the physical signal adjusts its display to match the target signal information, ensuring complete consistency between the physical and virtual signal displays, thus facilitating train route planning. The status adjustment command includes the target signal information for the virtual signal and the adjustment take-off time. For example, if the virtual signal is open and displays a green light, the physical signal is adjusted to be open and displays a green light. The adjustment take-off time can be set to 30 seconds, meaning the physical signal will be open and display a green light after 30 seconds. By setting the adjustment take-off time, the system better coordinates with internal delay mechanisms (such as approach locking delay) and avoids time conflicts. By setting up virtual signals and computer interlocking control relationships, when a train is routed from the Level 3 train control system to the Level 2 train control system via a virtual signal to receive a car with its lights off, it is not necessary to check the filament status of the departure signal in the same direction. After the virtual signal corresponding to the Level 3 train control system changes from off to on, a route with its lights on is processed, without needing to illuminate the departure signal in the same direction. When a train is routed from the Level 2 train control system to the Level 3 train control system via a virtual signal to depart, the signal display information sent by the Level 3 train control system is used to process the departure signal display, ensuring signal display consistency. When a train is routed from the Level 2 train control system to the Level 3 train control system to receive a car, the on / off status of the virtual signal corresponding to the Level 3 train control system determines whether to illuminate the departure signal in the same direction and whether to check the filament; the processing logic is consistent with other departure signals in the Level 3 train control system.

[0050] In this embodiment of the invention, in response to a route request, the system receives second route characteristic information and target signal information of a virtual signal from the second system via a safety data network. When the target signal information is an open signal, the system determines whether the first route characteristic information and the second route characteristic information are consistent. If they are consistent, a status adjustment command is sent to the physical signal at the beginning of the route in the front-end route area, so that the physical signal adjusts its display status after receiving the status adjustment command to facilitate train route planning. This embodiment of the invention sets an adjustment effective time to better coordinate the system with internal delay mechanisms (such as approach locking delay) and avoid time conflicts. By setting up a virtual signal and computer interlocking control logic, one route is virtually converted into two routes, controlled by two separate systems. The system controls route processing across train control levels through information interaction, solving the problem of not being able to directly process routes across train control levels, reducing labor costs, improving route processing efficiency, ensuring operational safety, reducing station stop time due to level conversion, and realizing automation and intelligence in cross-train control level route processing.

[0053] The information determination module 320 is used to determine whether the first route nature information and the second route nature information are consistent when the target signal information is an open signal; if they are consistent, it sends a status adjustment command to the physical signal at the beginning of the route in the front route area so that the physical signal can adjust its display status after receiving the status adjustment command to facilitate train route;

[0054] The virtual signal is set at the turnout insulation joint in the front and rear route areas, and the virtual signal is the virtual signal for the rear route area; the first route nature information and the second route nature information are the route nature information for the front and rear route areas, respectively.
