Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of rail vehicle maintenance, and in particular to a heavy haul locomotive coupler dynamics analysis method, device and system. BACKGROUND
[0002] Heavy haul railway plays an important role in the progress of rail vehicle technology with its large capacity, high efficiency and low cost. Developing heavy haul transportation and accelerating the improvement of railway transportation capacity is an important direction of railway development.
[0003] With the continuous increase of the length of heavy haul train formation, axle load and traction tonnage, and running speed, the longitudinal impulse of the train becomes more intense, which causes safety accidents in operation. The safety of the power of the traction locomotive is particularly important, and more than half of the safety accidents of heavy haul trains occur on the traction locomotive. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct regular safety monitoring and early warning technology research on the service safety of heavy haul locomotives caused by the longitudinal impulse of the train. The heavy haul locomotive coupler dynamics analysis technology is one of the key technologies to ensure the service safety of heavy haul locomotives. Real-time and accurate monitoring of the dynamic response of the heavy haul locomotive coupler helps to optimize train operation, reduce mechanical wear and tear of the train, prolong the service life of the equipment, and prevent train derailment, coupler separation and other accidents.
[0004] At present, there is a lack of regular real-time monitoring system for the dynamic response of the heavy haul locomotive coupler, and it is urgent to carry out real-time online monitoring technology research and application of the dynamic response of the heavy haul locomotive coupler to provide technical support and support for the safe operation of heavy haul trains.
[0005] The monitoring of the dynamic response of the locomotive coupler includes the measurement of the longitudinal force of the locomotive and the measurement of the deflection angle of the coupler. There are usually two methods for measuring the longitudinal force of the locomotive at present:
[0006] (1) One is a heavy haul locomotive coupler force identification based on data driving, which identifies the coupler force by extracting the longitudinal relative displacement signal of the coupler body. This method is obtained by data fitting instead of direct measurement, and there are many influencing factors, which leads to low measurement accuracy and makes it difficult to accurately and truly reflect the size of the longitudinal force borne by the locomotive.
[0007] (2) One is to install a coupler force sensor, that is, to make the locomotive coupler into a force sensor for measurement. It is composed of a full-bridge circuit by arranging strain gauges on both sides of the coupler body, and the coupler force coefficient is obtained by calibrating the load on the coupler force sensor calibration test bench, and then the coupler force is calculated by collecting the strain signal. However, due to the influence of complex running conditions and harsh operating conditions of the train, the traditional coupler force sensor method for measuring the longitudinal force of the coupler has the problem of decreased test accuracy due to aging, and the measurement precision is insufficient.
[0008] The horizontal rotation angle of the coupler is an important index for evaluating the stability of the bearing of the locomotive and the coupler buffer device. The accurate measurement of the index is crucial for the safety monitoring of the heavy-haul locomotive. In the traditional measurement of the deflection angle of the coupler, a transverse displacement sensor is often used to directly obtain the transverse deflection displacement of the coupler in the test process. However, the displacement sensor needs to be installed on the cross section of the coupler head, which is difficult to install and affects the locomotive maintenance, and is not suitable for normal installation on the locomotive.

[0080] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 This application discloses a dynamic analysis system for a heavy-duty locomotive coupler, comprising: coupler force sensors symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the coupler body, coupler displacement sensors symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the coupler body, a data acquisition processor, and a locomotive central processing platform.
[0081] The coupler force sensor is used to obtain the resistance change value of the coupler force sensor;
[0082] The coupler displacement sensor is used to obtain the distance from the coupler displacement sensor to the position of the coupler head cable holder before the coupler deflects and the distance from the coupler displacement sensor to the position of the coupler head cable holder after the coupler deflects.
[0083] The data acquisition processor is used to determine the longitudinal force of the coupler based on the resistance change value of the coupler force sensor, the power supply voltage value of the bridge, and the static voltage value of the coupler; to determine the deflection angle of the coupler based on the distance from the coupler displacement sensor to the position of the coupler head cable seat before the coupler deflection, the distance from the coupler displacement sensor to the position of the coupler head cable seat after the coupler deflection, and the longitudinal distance from the coupler head cable seat to the coupler tail pin; and to perform registration analysis on the acquired driving data, the longitudinal force of the coupler, and the deflection angle of the coupler to obtain the dynamic analysis results of the coupler.
[0084] It is understood that the embodiments of this application are based on relevant experiments on the safety monitoring of heavy-haul locomotives. Based on the accumulation of extensive testing experience and the experience in comprehensively analyzing test data, a vehicle-mounted safety monitoring and early warning system for the centrally controlled locomotive of a heavy-haul train has been developed, with online monitoring of the locomotive coupler dynamic response being one of its main functions.
[0085] Specifically, this application provides a heavy-haul locomotive coupler dynamics analysis system, including: a coupler force sensor, a coupler displacement sensor, a data acquisition processor (also called a data acquisition and processing module), and connecting cables. The coupler force sensor is installed in the middle of the two locomotive sections to measure the longitudinal impact force of the heavy-haul locomotive during operation; the coupler displacement sensor is used to measure the deflection displacement of the coupler; the data acquisition processor collects data in real time and calculates and outputs the results, communicating with the central processing platform of the locomotive's on-board safety protection system (6A system) to achieve online display on the 6A audio-visual display terminal in the driver's cab, facilitating the driver's understanding of the train's longitudinal impact level.
[0086] In one embodiment, a schematic diagram of the heavy-haul locomotive coupler dynamics analysis system is shown below. Figure 11 As shown. The terminal monitoring section refers to the external sensors, including the coupler force sensor and the coupler dynamic displacement sensor, the specific locations of which are shown in the figure. Figure 12 As shown. In Figure 12 In the middle section, the coupler force sensor is installed at the third coupler between two sections of the eight-axle locomotive to measure the longitudinal force in the middle of the locomotive. Two displacement sensors are arranged at the third coupler position to measure the dynamic displacement response of the middle coupler and calculate its horizontal rotation angle. See [link to installation details] for the coupler force sensor and coupler displacement sensor layout. Figure 12 As shown.
[0087] The data processing section has the functions of monitoring data acquisition and storage, data fusion analysis, and interaction with the locomotive's 6A system. The core component of this section is the data pre-processing unit, which acquires the longitudinal force and deflection displacement voltage signals of the heavy-duty locomotive coupler measured by the coupler force sensor and coupler displacement sensor in real time, and obtains the two physical quantities of coupler force and coupler deflection angle through coefficient configuration, filtering, and mathematical calculation.
[0088] The real-time online display is built upon the locomotive's 6A system data transmission framework. It sends key safety monitoring data, equipment sensor fault alarm information, and locomotive safety alarm data to the local locomotive 6A system, and displays them in real time on the 6A display screen in the driver's cab, along with alarm voice prompts.
[0089] As described above, the dynamic analysis method and device for heavy-haul locomotive couplers provided in this application are used for monitoring and early warning of the on-board safety of the central locomotive in heavy-haul railway trains. It can realize real-time monitoring of the dynamic response of the central locomotive coupler during the operation of 10,000-ton heavy-haul combined trains, and realize real-time measurement of the longitudinal force and coupler deflection angle of the central locomotive in heavy-haul trains. Considering the uneven load-bearing characteristics of the coupler body, it has good measurement accuracy and long-term operational stability. Its horizontal rotation angle measurement method based on the dynamic displacement of the coupler head uses two wire-type displacement sensors arranged in a triangle to realize accurate measurement of the horizontal rotation angle of the coupler, without affecting the normal operation and maintenance of the locomotive.
[0090] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 In order to achieve real-time monitoring of the dynamic response of locomotive and coupler during heavy-haul train operation, and to achieve real-time measurement of the longitudinal force and coupler deflection angle of the heavy-haul locomotive, this application provides a dynamic analysis method for heavy-haul locomotive and coupler, including:
[0091] S101: Determine the longitudinal force of the coupler based on the resistance change value of the coupler force sensor, the power supply voltage value of the bridge, and the static voltage value of the coupler;
[0092] S102: Determine the coupler deflection angle based on the distance from the coupler displacement sensor to the position of the coupler head cable holder before coupler deflection, the distance from the coupler displacement sensor to the position of the coupler head cable holder after coupler deflection, and the longitudinal distance from the coupler head cable holder to the coupler tail pin.
[0093] S103: The acquired driving data, the longitudinal force of the coupler, and the deflection angle of the coupler are registered and analyzed to obtain the dynamic analysis results of the coupler.
[0094] Understandably, based on a thorough analysis of the structural characteristics and load-bearing properties of the 102-type coupler buffer device for the FXD1B locomotive, this application provides a dynamic response monitoring method for the 102-type force measuring coupler that considers the uneven load characteristics of the coupler body. This method greatly improves the accuracy of longitudinal force measurement and the reliability of long-term operation, and enables accurate real-time measurement of the longitudinal force borne by the locomotive.
[0095] The structure of the type 102 hook and buffer device is shown below. Figure 6 As shown. Under the pulling force, this type of coupler transmits longitudinal force through the coupler tail pin. Under the pressing force, when the coupler deflects, one side of the coupler shoulder will contact the compression recovery block. At this time, it and the round pin share the longitudinal pressing force, and the coupler force transmission line will deflect at a certain angle from the coupler centerline in the horizontal direction. In addition, the longitudinal force transmission in the vertical direction will also exhibit uneven stress on the upper and lower bearing surfaces of the coupler tail pin hole due to differences in coupler height. In summary, the longitudinal force transmission line of this type of coupler is prone to deviating from the coupler centerline, and the force on each surface of the coupler body is not symmetrical vertically or horizontally, resulting in load differences on each surface of the coupler body.
[0096] From a structural dimension perspective, the Type 102 coupler has a hook body length of only 300mm and a transverse cross-sectional area of 230mm × 155mm, resulting in a relatively small overall slenderness ratio. Uneven stress distribution within the hook body, coupled with this small slenderness ratio, renders the traditional single-point strain gauge placement method on both sides inadequate for testing requirements. The ideal placement would be symmetrically arranging strain gauges on all four sides of the hook body, but due to the 178mm long wear plate on the bottom surface of the coupler, strain gauges cannot be placed on the lower surface. Therefore, a force-measuring coupler scheme considering uneven load distribution and placing strain gauges on the left and right sides is proposed. For details, see [link to details]. Figure 7 As shown, strain gauges are arranged on both the left and right sides. Each strain gauge includes working gauges and compensating gauges. Working gauges and compensating gauges are arranged at the top and bottom of each side. The two working gauges and two compensating gauges on the left side are labeled Rw1, Rw2 and Rt1, Rt2, respectively. The two working gauges and two compensating gauges on the right side are labeled Rw3, Rw4 and Rt3, Rt4, respectively. (See the coupler overhaul diagram.) Figure 8 As shown. In Figure 7 In the diagram, strain gauges shown in red are attached to the red stripe positions of the coupler, and strain gauges shown in blue are attached to the blue stripe positions of the coupler.
[0097] The data acquisition and processing module collects longitudinal force and coupler deflection displacement data measured by the coupler force sensor in real time. It performs low-pass filtering on the raw data to remove high-frequency noise and calculates the longitudinal force and coupler deflection angle. Simultaneously, the data processing module has the function of communicating and interacting with the central processing unit of the locomotive's onboard safety protection system. Based on time synchronization with the locomotive's LKJ (Locomotive Safety Control System), it can send the coupler longitudinal force and coupler horizontal deflection angle data to the 6A audio-visual display terminal on the driver's console of the 6A system every 1 second for data display and alarm voice prompts.
[0098] The data processing steps include: acquiring the raw signals from each sensor at a sampling frequency of 200Hz, then performing a 20Hz low-pass filter; the longitudinal force of the coupler is calculated using the formula y = k(xb), where y is the longitudinal force of the coupler, k is the bridge calibration coefficient, x is the bridge voltage value, and b is the static voltage value of the force-measuring coupler; the coupler deflection angle is calculated using formulas (2), (3), and (4) below. The pre-processing stage can also send the maximum statistical value of the calculated coupler longitudinal force and coupler horizontal deflection data to the 6A audio / video display terminal on the driver's console of the 6A system at 1-second intervals.
[0099] As described above, the dynamic analysis method for heavy-haul locomotive couplers provided in this application is used for monitoring and early warning of the on-board safety of the central locomotive in heavy-haul railway trains. It can realize real-time monitoring of the dynamic response of the central locomotive coupler during the operation of 10,000-ton heavy-haul combined trains, and realize real-time measurement of the longitudinal force and coupler deflection angle of the central locomotive in heavy-haul trains. Considering the uneven characteristics of the coupler body load, it has good measurement accuracy and long-term operational stability. Its horizontal rotation angle measurement method based on the dynamic displacement of the coupler head uses two wire-type displacement sensors arranged in a triangle to realize accurate measurement of the horizontal rotation angle of the coupler, without affecting the normal operation and maintenance of the locomotive.
[0100] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 The coupler force sensor includes a coupler force sensor working plate and a coupler force sensor compensation plate; the determination of the coupler longitudinal force based on the resistance change value of the coupler force sensor, the bridge power supply voltage value, and the coupler static voltage value includes:
[0101] S201: Determine the bridge output voltage value based on the resistance change value of the working piece of the coupler force sensor, the resistance change value of the compensation piece of the coupler force sensor, and the bridge power supply voltage value;
[0102] S202: Determine the longitudinal force of the coupler based on the static voltage value of the coupler and the output voltage value of the bridge.
[0103] Specifically, see Figure 3The step of determining the bridge output voltage value based on the resistance change value of the coupler force sensor working piece, the resistance change value of the coupler force sensor compensation piece, and the bridge supply voltage value includes:
[0104] S301: Determine the strain coefficient of the coupler force sensor working piece and the strain coefficient of the coupler force sensor compensation piece based on the sensitivity coefficient of the coupler force sensor working piece, the sensitivity coefficient of the coupler force sensor compensation piece, the Poisson's ratio of the coupler material, the resistance change value of the coupler force sensor working piece, and the resistance change value of the coupler force sensor compensation piece.
[0105] S302: Determine the output voltage value of the bridge based on the strain coefficient of the working piece of the coupler force sensor, the strain coefficient of the compensation piece of the coupler force sensor, the sensitivity coefficient of the working piece of the coupler force sensor, the sensitivity coefficient of the compensation piece of the coupler force sensor, the power supply voltage of the bridge, and the Poisson's ratio of the coupler material.
[0106] Understandably, the arrangement of strain gauges along the longitudinal direction of the coupler is obtained through finite element simulation optimization analysis. According to the working principle of the Wheatstone bridge, when the resistance of each strain gauge changes, the output voltage U... a It can be represented as:
[0107] U a =(ε w1 +ε w2 +ε w3 +ε w4 (1+ν)U p K / 8 (1)
[0108] In the formula
[0109] ε wi =ΔR wi / (R·K)=-ε ti / ν=-ΔR ti / (R·K·ν)
[0110] Where R is the nominal resistance value of the strain gauge, and U p The power supply voltage to the bridge is given by K, the strain gauge sensitivity coefficient is given by v, and the Poisson's ratio of the coupler material is given by ΔR. wi ΔR ti ε represents the resistance changes of the i-th working chip and the compensation chip, respectively. wi ε ti These are the strains of the i-th working piece and the compensation piece, respectively.
[0111] The above method can solve the problem of uneven load distribution on the coupler body. Calibration results show that it can obtain tensile and compressive load identification coefficients with good linearity. See [link to documentation]. Figure 9 As shown.
[0112] As can be seen from the above description, the heavy-duty locomotive coupler dynamic analysis method provided in this application can determine the longitudinal force of the coupler based on the resistance change value of the coupler force sensor, the power supply voltage value of the bridge, and the static voltage value of the coupler.
[0113] In one embodiment, see Figure 4 The coupler displacement sensor includes a coupler displacement sensor working piece and a coupler displacement sensor compensation piece; determining the coupler deflection angle based on the distance from the coupler displacement sensor to the position of the coupler head cable holder before coupler deflection and the distance from the coupler displacement sensor to the position of the coupler head cable holder after coupler deflection includes:
[0114] S401: Determine the first horizontal projection distance from the working piece of the coupler displacement sensor to the position of the coupler deflection head cable holder based on the distances from the position of the coupler deflection head cable holder to the working piece of the coupler displacement sensor and the compensation piece of the coupler displacement sensor respectively;
[0115] S402: Determine the second horizontal projection distance from the working piece of the coupler displacement sensor to the position of the hook head cable seat after the coupler deflection, based on the distances from the position of the coupler head cable seat to the working piece of the coupler displacement sensor and the compensation piece of the coupler displacement sensor respectively;
[0116] S403: Determine the lateral displacement of the coupler head based on the first horizontal projection distance and the second horizontal projection distance;
[0117] S404: The ratio of the lateral displacement of the coupler head to the longitudinal distance from the coupler head cable seat to the coupler tail pin is determined as the coupler deflection angle.
[0118] It is understood that the embodiments described in this application describe a method for measuring the horizontal rotation angle based on the dynamic displacement of the coupler head. It employs two wire-type displacement sensors arranged in a triangle to accurately measure the horizontal rotation angle of the coupler. The two displacement sensors are installed on the end face of the locomotive body, without affecting locomotive maintenance.
[0119] Specifically, Figure 10 A schematic diagram for calculating the horizontal rotation angle of the coupler is provided. Figure 10 In the diagram, A and B represent the installation positions of two displacement sensors on the vehicle body; O is the initial zero-position position of the coupler head cable holder; OA and OB represent the cable holding state at the initial zero position, with lengths x and y respectively; m is the horizontal projected distance between point O and point A; O1 is the position of the coupler head cable holder after coupler deflection; O1A and O1B represent the cable holding state after coupler deflection, with lengths changing to x1 and y1 respectively; m1 is the horizontal projected distance between point O1 and point A. Through geometric relationships, we can obtain:
[0120] m=(x 2 -y 2 +l2 ) / 2l (2)
[0121] Where l is the lateral distance between the two displacement sensor mounting points AB, the lateral displacement Δm of the coupler head can be obtained by differentiating equation (2):
[0122] Δm=m1-m=(x·Δx-y·Δy) / l+(Δx 2 -Δy 2 ) / 2l (3)
[0123] Where Δx and Δy represent the changes in the tension lines of the two displacement sensors, i.e., the readings of the displacement sensors based on their initial zero position. Therefore, the horizontal rotation angle α of the coupler can be calculated:
[0124] α=Δm / H (4)
[0125] Where H is the longitudinal distance from the coupler head cable seat to the coupler tail pin.
[0126] As can be seen from the above description, the heavy-duty locomotive coupler dynamic analysis method provided in this application can determine the coupler deflection angle based on the distance from the coupler displacement sensor to the position of the coupler head cable seat before the coupler deflection and the distance from the coupler displacement sensor to the position of the coupler head cable seat after the coupler deflection.

[0129] S502: The matching data is sent to the locomotive central processing platform so that the locomotive central processing platform can perform locomotive operation control.
[0130] Understandable Figure 11 The pre-processing unit can interact with the locomotive's 6A system to receive locomotive operation data, including speed, mileage, and time, sent by the 6A system for correlation analysis. Based on this, and using a unified spatiotemporal reference, the acquired driving data (speed, mileage, time, etc.) is matched with the longitudinal force of the coupler and the coupler deflection angle, and the matched data is sent to the locomotive's central processing platform (6A system).
