Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of rail transit platform door control technology, specifically to a two-out-of-two electromagnetic lock safety control circuit for rail transit platform doors. Background Technology

[0002] Platform screen door control systems are an important subsystem of signal control systems in the rail transit field, used to control the opening and closing of platform screen doors and monitor their status. The electromagnetic locks within these control systems are the core safety equipment, and their safe operation and status monitoring play a crucial role in the normal functioning of the platform screen doors.

[0003] Existing electromagnetic lock drive circuits are all single-point control, meaning a single microprocessor controls optocouplers, MOSFETs, or relays to indirectly drive the electromagnetic lock. Therefore, a single software or hardware failure in this single control loop can cause the electromagnetic lock to unlock unexpectedly or fail to lock, easily impacting the safe operation of rail transit. For example, patent CN113513216A uses a single opening / closing control signal to control an optocoupler, which in turn indirectly controls a power switch to drive the electromagnetic lock. When the power switch in this loop fails, the electromagnetic lock will be mistakenly unlocked or fail to lock. Similarly, patents CN215097541U and CN214996977U also use single-point control for both the drive control and status detection of the electromagnetic lock. In these patents, core control components such as optocouplers, MOSFETs, or relays lack self-testing circuits, making it impossible to provide early warnings of component failures. This compromises safety and complicates maintenance. Summary of the Invention

This solves the problem of unreliable or inaccurate perception of the state of key components. Furthermore, the first detection branch, namely the first optocoupler and the second optocoupler, acquires the state of the normally closed node of the safety relay, while the second detection branch, namely the third optocoupler and the fourth optocoupler, performs switching tests and state acquisition on the solid-state relay.

[0032] In one specific embodiment: See attached document Figure 1 This safety control circuit includes: a first microprocessor 1, a second microprocessor 2, a dual-channel digital isolator 3, a safety relay 4, a first isolation drive unit 5 (such as an isolation drive optocoupler), a second isolation drive unit 6 (such as a solid-state relay), a status isolation detection unit, an electromagnetic lock 13, and a network switch 14. The power and signal connection relationships between the components are as follows: Power Supply System: To enhance isolation and safety, the system employs multiple independent power supplies. The first microprocessor 1 and its related detection circuits are powered by the first low-voltage DC power supply. Microprocessor 1 is powered by a DC 3.3V power supply. The second microprocessor 2 and its related drive and detection circuits are powered by a second low-voltage DC power supply; microprocessor 2 is powered by a DC 3.3V_2 power supply. The coil of safety relay 4 is powered by a drive power supply; one end of the coil of safety relay 4 is connected to a DC24V power supply, and the other end is connected to one end of the secondary winding of the isolation drive optocoupler; one end of the normally closed contact 2 of safety relay 4 is connected to a DC110V power supply, and the other end is connected to the current limiting resistor R8. One end of the normally open terminal 1 of the safety relay 4 is connected to the DC 110V power supply and the current limiting resistor R11, and the other end is connected to the electromagnetic coil terminal of the electromagnetic lock 13.

[0033] Processor and Communication: The first microprocessor 1 and the second microprocessor 2 are connected to the dual-channel digital isolator 3 to realize the synchronization and electrical isolation of control commands and status data. The first microprocessor 1 and the second microprocessor 2 are also connected to the industrial network switch 14 through the network interface NET1, so as to communicate securely with the upper-level platform door control system, receive control commands and upload status information.

[0034] The first driving branch is controlled by the first microprocessor 1. The first control pin GPIO1 of the first microprocessor 1 is connected to the cathode of the primary side of the isolation drive optocoupler via the first current-limiting resistor R1, and its anode is connected to a DC 3.3V_1 power supply. The collector of the phototransistor on the secondary side of the isolation drive optocoupler is connected to one end of the coil of the safety relay 4, and the other end of the coil is connected to a DC 24V power supply; the emitter on the secondary side of the isolation drive optocoupler is connected to DC 3.3V_1_GND. When GPIO1 outputs a low level, the isolation drive optocoupler is turned on, and the coil of the safety relay 4 is energized and engaged.

[0035] The second drive branch is controlled by the second microprocessor 2. The first control pin GPIO1 of the second microprocessor 2 is connected to the cathode of the primary side of the solid-state relay 6 through the second current-limiting resistor R2, and its anode is connected to the DC3.3V_2 power supply. One end of the secondary side of the solid-state relay 6 is connected to the common terminal of the electromagnetic coil of the electromagnetic lock 13, and the other end is connected to DC110V_GND.

[0036] State detection loop: The first detection branch detects the health status of safety relay 4: one end of the first normally closed node of safety relay 4 is connected to a DC24V power supply, and the other end is connected in series with the primary side light-emitting diodes of the first detection optocoupler 7 and the second detection optocoupler 8 through the fifth current-limiting resistor R5. The other end of this series branch is connected to DC24V_GND. The output of the secondary side of the first detection optocoupler 7 is pulled up to a DC 3.3V power supply through the third current-limiting resistor R3. The output of the secondary side of the first detection optocoupler 7 is connected to the first state acquisition pin GPIO2 of the first microprocessor 1. The output of the secondary side of the second detection optocoupler 8 is pulled up to a DC 3.3V power supply through the fourth current-limiting resistor R4. The output of the secondary side of the second detection optocoupler 8 is connected to the first state acquisition pin GPIO2 of the second microprocessor 2. When the safety relay 4 is not energized, its normally closed node is closed, the DC 24V circuit is turned on, and the primary side of the first detection optocoupler 7 and the second detection optocoupler 8 emits light, causing their secondary side output to be low. When the safety relay 4 is energized, the normally closed node is open, the circuit is broken, and the secondary side output is high. The two microprocessors can determine whether the safety relay 4 is controlled to operate by acquiring the level status of GPIO2 and voting synchronously.

[0037] The second detection branch detects the health status of solid-state relay 6: This detection is performed when the electromagnetic lock is in the locked state and the safety relay 4 is dropped. One end of the second normally closed node of the safety relay 4 is connected to a DC 110V power supply, and the other end is connected in series with the primary side LEDs of the third detection optocoupler 9 and the fourth detection optocoupler 10 through the eighth current limiting resistor R8. The other end of this series branch is connected to the common terminal of the electromagnetic coil of the electromagnetic lock 13, that is, the secondary side output terminal of solid-state relay 6. The output of the secondary side of the third detection optocoupler 9 is pulled up to a DC 3.3V power supply through the sixth current limiting resistor R6. The output of the secondary side of the third detection optocoupler 9 is connected to the second status acquisition pin GPIO3 of the first microprocessor 1. The output of the secondary side of the fourth detection optocoupler 10 is pulled up to the DC 3.3V_2 power supply through the seventh current-limiting resistor R7. The output of the secondary side of the fourth detection optocoupler 10 is connected to the second state acquisition pin GPIO3 of the second microprocessor 2. When the solid-state relay 6 is off, its output is disconnected from DC 110V_GND. If the DC 110V power supply is normal, the detection circuit is on, the primary side of the third detection optocoupler 9 and the fourth detection optocoupler 10 illuminates, and the secondary output is low. When the solid-state relay 6 is controlled to be on, its output is approximately short-circuited to DC 110V_GND, the voltage across the detection circuit is close to zero, the primary side of the third detection optocoupler 9 and the fourth detection optocoupler 10 is off, and the secondary output is high. The second microprocessor 2 can determine whether its switching function is normal by controlling the on / off state of the solid-state relay 6 and observing the level change of GPIO3.

[0038] The third detection branch detects the state of the electromagnetic lock 13 node: one end of the normally closed node of the electromagnetic lock 13 is connected to a DC 110V power supply through the eleventh current-limiting resistor R11, and the other end is connected in series with the primary side LEDs of the fifth detection optocoupler 11 and the sixth detection optocoupler 12. The other end of this series branch is connected to DC 110V_GND. The output of the secondary side of the fifth detection optocoupler 11 is pulled up to a DC 3.3V_1 power supply through the ninth current-limiting resistor R9. The output of the secondary side of the fifth detection optocoupler 11 is connected to the third state of the first microprocessor 1. The output of the secondary side of the sixth detection optocoupler 12 is pulled up to a DC 3.3V_2 power supply through the tenth current-limiting resistor R10. The output of the secondary side of the sixth detection optocoupler 12 is connected to the third state acquisition pin GPIO4 of the second microprocessor 2. When the electromagnetic lock 13 is in the locked state, its normally closed node is closed, the detection circuit is open, the primary side of the fifth detection optocoupler 11 and the sixth detection optocoupler 12 emits light, and the secondary output is low. When the electromagnetic lock is unlocked, its normally closed node is open, the detection circuit is broken, and the secondary output is high. The two microprocessors can obtain the real-time locked / unlocked state of the electromagnetic lock by acquiring the level of GPIO4 and performing synchronous voting.

[0039] Control and detection logic flow Electromagnetic lock unlocking process: The first microprocessor 1 and the second microprocessor 2 receive the "unlock" command from the door control system through the network switch 14.

[0040] The first microprocessor 1 and the second microprocessor 2 exchange and compare the received commands through a dual-channel digital isolator 3. If the commands match, the vote passes.

[0041] Step 1: The first microprocessor 1 controls its GPIO1 to output a low level, driving the isolation optocoupler to conduct, thus energizing and engaging the coil of the safety relay 4. Its normally open contact closes, leading the DC 110V drive power supply to one end of the electromagnetic lock 13 coil through R11.

[0042] Step 2: The second microprocessor 2 controls its GPIO1 to output a low level, driving the solid-state relay 6 to conduct. At this time, one end of the electromagnetic coil of the electromagnetic lock 13 is connected to DC110V via R11, and the other end is connected to DC110V_GND via the solid-state relay 6 to form a complete circuit. Current flows through the electromagnetic coil, and the electromagnetic lock unlocks. This sequence avoids the solid-state relay 6 closing under high voltage difference, reducing the impact.

[0043] During and after the unlocking process, the two microprocessors continuously monitor the status of the electromagnetic lock node through the third detection branch, namely the fifth detection optocoupler 11 and the sixth detection optocoupler 12, to confirm successful unlocking.

[0044] Electromagnetic lock locking procedure: The microprocessor received the "lock" command and it was approved by a vote.

[0045] Step 1: The second microprocessor 2 controls its GPIO1 to output a high level, turns off the solid-state relay 6, and cuts off the main current path of the electromagnetic lock coil.

[0046] Step 2: The first microprocessor 1 controls its GPIO1 to output a high level, disabling the isolation drive optocoupler. The coil of safety relay 4 is de-energized and released, its normally open contact opens, and the drive power is completely removed. This sequence avoids the mechanical contacts of the safety relay breaking under load, extending contact life.

[0047] After locking, the state of the normally closed node of the electromagnetic lock is confirmed to be restored through the third detection branch.

[0048] Self-check process: Safety relay 4 self-test: During system power-on initialization or periodic maintenance, by controlling safety relay 4 to perform a pull-in / release action, two microprocessors collect the changes in the state of its normally closed node through the first detection branch optocoupler 7, 8, and compare them with the control command to determine whether its drive coil and contact action are normal.

[0049] Solid-state relay 6 self-test: This test must be performed under safe conditions, i.e., the electromagnetic lock has been confirmed to be locked and the safety relay 4 has been deactivated. The second microprocessor 2 controls the solid-state relay 6 to perform a brief on-off operation. During this period, the first microprocessor 1 and the second microprocessor 2 collect the circuit status in real time through the second detection branch, namely the third detection optocoupler 9 and the fourth detection optocoupler 10. If the solid-state relay 6 is functioning normally, the voltage across the detection branch should be close to zero when it is on, and the detection branch should be on when it is off. The first microprocessor 1 and the second microprocessor 2 compare the collected status changes with the control commands to complete the diagnosis of the switching function of the solid-state relay 6.

[0050] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
