Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of turnout signal debugging, and in particular relates to a portable railway signal AC turnout intelligent operating box. Background Art
[0002] Railway switch is an important part of railway signal equipment, responsible for controlling the switching of railway turnouts to ensure that trains can travel safely and accurately along the predetermined path. Debugging railway switch is a complex and critical process. There are generally two ways: one is to use the control console (or operating table) to perform single operation of outdoor switch equipment (i.e. separate positioning operation and reverse operation); the other is to make the indoor turnout control combination into an operating box and move it outdoors for testing.
[0003] Use a control console (or operating table) to perform single operation (i.e., separate positioning operation and reverse operation) of outdoor switch equipment. Although this method is the safest for operating switch machines, it needs to be carried out within the skylight points. When faced with the construction of overdue replacement of switch machines on existing lines, more skylight points are needed for testing and replacement, which will not only affect railway transportation, but also pose a considerable challenge to the technical level of construction personnel and construction costs.
[0004] Move the indoor turnout control assembly outdoors for testing. Although this method can meet the test requirements, it is bulky and heavy when fully plugged with relays, and requires more manpower to move it to the site for testing. A single relay is expensive, and the relays of a turnout control assembly are even more expensive.
[0005] There is currently a lack of an intelligent control box for railway signal AC turnouts that has a short production cycle, low cost, and is easy to carry. Utility Model Content

[0034] The specific internal circuit schematic diagram of the switch machine is the prior art.
[0035] One end of the three normally open contacts of the fixed contactor KM1 is connected to the A, B, and C phases of the three-phase power supply, and the other end is connected to the wiring W1, W2, and W5 of the switch machine; one end of the three normally open contacts of the reverse contactor KM2 is connected to the A, B, and C phases of the three-phase power supply, and the other end is connected to the wiring W1, W4, and W3 of the switch machine; the three-phase power supply provides power to the controllable logic controller PLC through the switching power supply and the transformer.

By pressing the fixed and reverse buttons, the contact relay is controlled to absorb and fall to control the on and off of the start power supply of the switch machine.
[0036] The switching power supply is used to convert 380V three-phase electricity into 24V DC. The input terminals L1 and L2 of the switching power supply are connected to the A phase and C phase of the three-phase power supply respectively. The output terminal -24V of the switching power supply is connected to the input terminal -24V of the controllable programmable logic controller PLC and two COM terminals connected to the fixed contactor KM1 and the reverse contactor KM2 respectively.

[0039] The box is equipped with a fixed operation button SB1, a reverse operation button SB2, an emergency stop button SB0, a fixed meter light L1, a reverse meter light L2, a buzzer-type flashing alarm, a circuit breaker K1 and an ammeter. The ammeter is used to display the current collected by the current sensor, that is, to monitor the start-up current of the turnout. The circuit breaker K1 is a circuit breaker with a rated current of 5A; the fixed operation button SB1 is a green self-resetting travel switch used to connect the fixed operation (reverse→fixed) start-up circuit; the reverse operation button SB2 is a yellow self-resetting travel switch used to connect the reverse operation (fixed→reverse) start-up circuit; the emergency stop button SB0 is a red non-self-resetting travel switch used to urgently disconnect the turnout start-up circuit; the buzzer-type flashing alarm is a turnout phase loss, phase break and phase error alarm device, and the alarm state is a buzzer plus a flashing red light.
[0040] Specific operating steps: When in use, connect the three-phase AC power supply A, B, C3 wires and the switch W1, W2, W3, W4, W5 wiring to the WANKO wiring terminals 1, 2, 3 of the three-phase power input of the control box, close the power switch, power on the corresponding phase failure protector for inspection, and the buzzer-type flash alarm will sound. After the phase sequence check is completed, the buzzer-type flash alarm will turn off and stop the alarm.
[0041] When the test switch positioning is started, press the fixed operation button, the fixed operation contactor KM1 is attracted, and the switch starting power supply is connected. At this time, the switch will move to the positioning direction, and the starting ammeter will deflect to the 2A range. When the pointer returns to zero, it means that the switch positioning is moved into place.
[0042] After the switch positioning switch is moved into place, the switch indication circuit is connected. At this time, the switch indication lamp L1 lights up green, indicating that the switch positioning indication is good.
[0043] Reverse start and indication test are the same as above.
[0044] Specific working principle:
[0045] Press the fixed operation button to cut off the Y4.Y5 reverse meter power supply, the reverse meter light L2 goes out, after a delay of 2s, the fixed operation contactor is excited and attracted, the ABC three-phase power is connected, the motor rotates forward, the motor rotates forward to the position, the fixed operation contactor loses magnetism and falls, after a delay of 2s, the Y2.Y3 indication power supply is connected, and the fixed meter light L1 is on;
[0046] Press the reverse operation button to cut off the power supply of Y2.Y3 meter, and the meter light L1 goes out. After a delay of 2s, the reverse operation contactor is excited and attracted, and the ABC three-phase power is connected. The motor reverses, and the motor reverses to the end. The reverse operation contactor loses magnetism and falls. After a delay of 2s, the power supply of Y4.Y5 is connected, and the reverse meter light L2 lights up.
[0047] The above delays are all delay programs set in the PLC, which are prior art and will not be described in detail again.
[0048] In addition, the PLC program setting in this application can also automatically cut off the starting power supply if the switch is not in place within 30S; since the indication power supply is AC power supply, the indication inspection channel and the starting circuit channel are the same channel. In order to prevent the 380V power supply of the starting circuit from burning related equipment through the indication circuit, a 2S delay is set to physically isolate this possibility.
[0049] The above is only a preferred specific implementation of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model shall be based on the protection scope of the claims.
