Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of railway equipment, in particular to an intelligent shunting device for self-propelled running equipment. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of the railway transportation industry and technological advancement, the demand for improving transportation efficiency and ensuring driving safety is increasing. Traditional shunting operations mainly rely on manual operations, which is not only inefficient but also prone to misoperation and safety hazards. In recent years, the development of intelligent sensing technology has provided new possibilities for solving these problems.

[0003] At present, shunting operations are mainly carried out manually, and manual operations mainly have the following problems:

[0004] Since shunting operations often need to be completed within a limited time, operators are prone to misjudgment or improper operation under stressful working conditions. For example, incorrectly connecting or disconnecting vehicles, forgetting to set or remove anti-skid measures, etc., may lead to serious safety accidents. At night or in severe weather conditions, shunting personnel's vision is limited, making it difficult to accurately judge the distance between vehicles, increasing the risk of collision. Shunting operations involve the cooperation of multiple links and personnel. If communication is insufficient or instructions are not clearly conveyed, misunderstandings and incorrect operations may easily occur, leading to accidents and posing safety hazards.

[0005] Shunting operations require the participation of a large number of staff, including drivers, shunters, etc., which have high manpower costs, especially during busy hours. Since manual operation is required, the preparation and execution time of shunting operations is long, especially in complex shunting tasks, which will cause delays in the entire transportation process. Manual shunting operations are difficult to cope with emergencies, such as temporary changes in train composition or adjustments to departure times, which often require more coordination and time, resulting in inefficiency.

[0006] Therefore, the proposal of an intelligent shunting device for self-propelled equipment is not only an inevitable product of technological progress, but also an important measure to meet the growing demand for railway transportation. By integrating advanced intelligent sensing technology, this device can significantly improve the safety and efficiency of shunting operations, reduce the risk of human errors and accidents, and provide strong support for the modernization of railway transportation.

It should be noted that both sets of track driving wheel assemblies 3 are equipped with driving motors, which are powered by a power supply assembly 7 and controlled to start and stop by a terminal control module 9 in an intelligent controller 6;

[0026] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The operating vehicle body 1 is provided with an intelligent shunting component 4, which includes a distance measuring module 5, an intelligent controller 6 and a power supply component 7. The distance measuring module 5 is used to detect the distance between the two vehicles and display it in the form of information through a terminal control module 9 on the intelligent controller, so that the distance situation can be observed in real time. The distance measuring module 5 is installed on the end face of the operating vehicle body 1. There are two groups of distance measuring modules 5. Both groups of distance measuring modules 5 are installed on the two end faces of the operating vehicle body 1. The intelligent controller 6 is arranged at a position close to one side of the upper surface of the operating vehicle body 1. The power supply component 7 is also arranged at a position staggered from the upper surface of the operating vehicle body 1 and the intelligent controller 6. The intelligent controller 6 is electrically connected to the two groups of track driving wheel components 3;

[0027] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The intelligent controller 6 includes a communication module 8 and a terminal control module 9, which are installed on the running vehicle body 1 through a mounting frame. The communication module 8 is electrically connected to the terminal control module 9. It should be noted that the terminal control module 9 is installed on the running vehicle body 1, so that the terminal control module 9 can be controlled by the staff on the running vehicle body 1;

[0028] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The power supply component 7 includes a battery pack 10 and a charging head 11. The battery pack 10 is arranged on the top of the operating body 1.
