Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of railway signal equipment, in particular to a device for eliminating bad branching of railway signal track circuits. Background Art
[0002] The main function of the track circuit in the railway signal control system is to monitor the dynamics of the train or train and detect whether the wheelset of the train occupies the track section. When there is no train running in the track section with the track circuit, the current will flow from the power supply through the track to the track relay. The track relay has enough current to absorb the magnetized armature, thereby connecting the green light circuit of the signal machine and displaying a green light, indicating that the line ahead is idle and the locomotive vehicle is allowed to occupy it; when the locomotive vehicle enters the track section, the current passes through the wheelset and the track relay at the same time. Since the resistance of the wheelset is much smaller than the resistance of the track relay coil, the current flowing through the track relay is greatly reduced, forming a large shunt effect, and the suction of the track relay is weakened, releasing the armature, connecting the red light circuit of the signal machine, and displaying a red light, indicating that the track section is prohibited. This working performance of the track circuit can prevent train rear-end collisions and collisions and ensure driving safety.
[0003] However, the JZXC-480 AC track circuit used in the signal station is prone to poor wheel-to-wheel shunts due to rust, dust on the rail surface, oil pollution, etc. According to technical regulations, the voltage at the track AC end should be between 10.5 and 16V, that is, 15% higher than the working value of the track relay (9.2V). This safety factor is required to ensure reliable excitation of the track relay. When a vehicle occupies the track circuit, the track circuit is shunted by the vehicle wheels, so that the voltage at the track relay end is lower than its working value, and the track relay releases the armature, indicating that the track section is occupied. When shunting, the AC residual voltage of the track relay shall not be greater than 2.7V, that is, 60% of the release value of the track relay (4.6V), to ensure that the track relay can be released reliably. According to field data testing, in sections with poor track surface shunts, the residual pressure on the track surface can reach 5-6V when the locomotive is occupied, which is greater than the release value of the track relay 4.6V. At this time, the track relay cannot release the armature, so the locomotive occupies the track but the red light does not turn on.
[0004] When this happens, when the vehicle occupies the track or section and the red light is not on in the track section, the interlocking system will assume that the section is idle. At this time, trains or shunting routes can pass through the section at will, switches can be changed individually, routes can be unlocked, and other operations can be carried out, resulting in traffic accidents such as frontal and side collisions of trains, switch squeezing, and vehicle derailment. This is extremely dangerous and will have a serious impact on railway driving safety. Utility Model Content

[0019] The sending-end track assembly also includes a first sliding-wire rheostat RX and a first resistor 5 arranged on the output branch of the sending-end transformer 3; one end of the first sliding-wire rheostat RX and the sliding-wire end are connected to one end of the sending-end transformer 3, the other end of the first sliding-wire rheostat RX is connected to one end of the first resistor 5 and the first rail 6, the other end of the first resistor 5 is connected to the second rail 7 and the normally closed end of the sending-end microswitch 1, and the common end of the sending-end microswitch 1 is connected to the other end of the sending-end transformer 3.
[0020] The receiving-end track assembly also includes a second sliding-wire rheostat RS and a second resistor 8 arranged on the input branch of the receiving-end transformer 4; one end of the second sliding-wire rheostat RS and the sliding-wire end are connected to one end of the receiving-end transformer 4, the other end of the second sliding-wire rheostat RS is connected to one end of the second resistor 8 and the first rail 6, the other end of the second resistor 8 is connected to the second rail 7 and the common end of the receiving-end microswitch 2, and the normally closed end of the receiving-end microswitch 2 is connected to the other end of the receiving-end transformer 4.
[0021] A third resistor 9 connected in parallel with the track relay GJ is provided on the output branch of the receiving-end transformer 4, and a lightning protection compensator 10 is connected in parallel between the third resistor 9 and the track relay GJ.
[0022] The input branch of the sending-end transformer 3 is connected to the power supply through fuses RD1 and RD2.
[0023] In this embodiment, one end of the compression rods 1 - 1 , 2 - 1 is close to the outer side surface of the top of the second rail 7 .
