The second image acquisition device 52 can also be a device such as a camera that can take photos or videos.

[0036] The brake shoe detection unit 5 may also include a second light source 53, which is installed on one side of the second box 51 close to the track 2 and obliquely upward toward the brake shoe position of the train passing through the track 2. The second light source 53 may be arranged side by side next to the second image acquisition device 52, and the second light source 53 may also be a device that can provide lighting, such as a fill light, and the second light source 53 may provide lighting compensation for the second image acquisition device 52, so that the second image acquisition device 52 can obtain clearer image information of the brake shoe engagement condition of the train.

[0039] The brake cylinder bellows detection unit 6 is also similar in structure to the brake chain detection unit 4. Figure 6 As shown, the brake cylinder bellows detection unit 6 also includes a third box 61 and a third image acquisition device 62. The difference is that the brake cylinder bellows detection unit 6 includes two third image acquisition devices 62, which are respectively installed on both sides of the third box 61, that is, one third image acquisition device 62 is provided for each of the two side tracks 2. The image acquisition direction of the third image acquisition device 62 is obliquely upward toward the brake cylinder bellows position of the train passing the track 2. The third image acquisition device 62 can also be a device such as a camera that can take photos and videos.

[0040] The brake cylinder bellows detection unit 6 further includes two third light sources 63, which are respectively installed on both sides of the third box 61 and obliquely upward toward the brake cylinder bellows position of the train passing the track 2.

[0041] like Figure 7As shown, the third image acquisition device 62 and the third light source 63 can also be installed inside the third box 61. In order to protect the third image acquisition device 62 and the third light source 63, protective glass can also be added outside the third image acquisition device 62 and the third light source 63 to prevent dust, rain and the like from affecting the normal use of the third image acquisition device 62 and the third light source 63.

[0042] An air inlet may be provided below the side of the third box 61 away from the track 2, and an air outlet may be provided at the top of the third box 61. A fan may be installed at the air outlet, so that the heat generated by the operation of the third image acquisition device 62 and the third light source 63 in the third box 61 can be discharged from the air outlet in time. A cover plate may be provided above the third box 61 corresponding to the air outlet, and the cover plate may guide part of the airflow discharged from the air outlet to the protective glass to sweep away dust, rainwater, etc. on the protective glass.

[0043] The status detection system of the railway train hump vehicle braking device described in the embodiment of the present application may also include a vehicle receiving unit.

[0044] The vehicle receiving unit may include a train information collection unit to identify the electronic tag of the vehicle and obtain train information such as vehicle model, vehicle number, and terminal position.

[0045] The train receiving unit may also include a plurality of sensors arranged along the track 2 to obtain the train entry and exit information on the hump track 2. For example, when the train sequentially triggers a plurality of sensors in the incoming direction, it is determined that the train has entered the hump. When the train sequentially passes a plurality of sensors in the outgoing direction and there is no new trigger signal from these sensors within a certain period of time, it is determined that the train has exited the hump.

[0046] At the same time, the brake chain detection unit 4, the brake shoe detection unit 5 and the brake cylinder bellows detection unit 6 are all communicatively connected with the car receiving unit, and the image information acquired by the brake chain detection unit 4, the brake shoe detection unit 5 and the brake cylinder bellows detection unit 6 are all transmitted to the car receiving unit, and the car receiving unit transmits the above train information, entry information, exit information, and image information to the duty room for the duty room staff to comprehensively judge the relevant conditions of the train braking device so as to issue corresponding instructions.

[0047] In addition, the receiving unit also has a coordinated control function. When the information that the train enters the hump is obtained, a signal will be sent to the brake chain detection unit 4, the brake shoe detection unit 5 and the brake cylinder bellows detection unit 6 to start acquiring image information and start acquiring train information at the same time. When the receiving unit obtains the information that the train leaves the hump, a signal will be sent to the brake chain detection unit 4, the brake shoe detection unit 5 and the brake cylinder bellows detection unit 6 to stop acquiring image information, and the acquired train information, image information, etc. will be transmitted to the duty room for analysis by the duty personnel.

[0048] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0049] The above preferred embodiments shall not be regarded as limiting the present invention, and the protection scope of the present invention shall be subject to the scope defined by the claims. For ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications shall also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
