Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of track measurement, and in particular to a track geometric parameter measurement system based on a three-point laser alignment model. Background Art
[0002] At present, the front-end deviation measurement device of the domestic tamping vehicle mainly adopts the measurement principle of laser alignment, which mainly includes one-dimensional laser alignment system, two-dimensional laser alignment system and curved laser alignment system, which can solve the long-wave unevenness of the line through laser strings on straight lines and curves. However, the traditional laser alignment system adopts the "one receive and one send" mode. When the length of the laser string is long, errors will occur due to laser jitter, and there is a deviation between the absolute position of the laser emission point and the laser receiving point provided by the manual measurement method. The mode of guiding the tamping vehicle to perform absolute construction has the disadvantages of low efficiency and high cost.
[0003] At present, the measurement of ballasted track of high-speed railways has gradually shifted from relative measurement to absolute measurement. The common method adopted abroad is to establish a fixed point reference system by installing track reference points to achieve absolute measurement of the track. my country's high-speed railways and passenger dedicated lines have established a precision control network based on the CPIII coordinate system, and some lines have established a side pile control network to achieve absolute positioning of the track line. The absolute measurement method mainly relies on the total station with a prism to carry out absolute measurement of the track line and guide manual treatment of track line defects, but its measurement efficiency is only 300 meters / window point (4 hours), which cannot meet the efficiency requirements of tamping operations, seriously restricting the daily maintenance efficiency of railway lines, and causing certain impacts on the normal operation and maintenance of high-speed railways. In addition, some conventional lines do not have a track control network and cannot use this solution for measurement.
[0004] Therefore, on the basis of the existing laser alignment system, it is urgent to carry out research on orbital geometric parameter measurement technology based on the three-point laser alignment principle. Utility Model Content

[0029] The technical solution of the present application will be described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings and specific implementation methods of the present application. However, the following embodiments are only for understanding the present utility model. The embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. The present application can be implemented in a variety of different ways as defined and covered by the claims.
[0030] See also Figure 1-4 , adopting the laser long-chord technology solution, on the basis of the traditional laser vehicle "transmitter vehicle-receiver vehicle", a "one-transmitter-two-receiver" mode of "transmitter vehicle-receiver vehicle-receiver vehicle" is proposed, forming a track geometry parameter measurement system based on the three-point laser alignment model, including transmitter vehicle 1, 1# receiving vehicle 2 and 2# receiving vehicle 3. Transmitter vehicle 1, 1# receiving vehicle 2 and 2# receiving vehicle 3 all adopt T-shaped frames. Transmitter vehicle 1 is equipped with a laser transmitter, and 1# receiving vehicle 2 and 2# receiving vehicle 3 are equipped with laser receivers. 1# receiving vehicle 2 and 2# receiving vehicle 3 automatically follow the transmitter vehicle 1, and the transmitter vehicle 1 communicates with 1# receiving vehicle 2 and 2# receiving vehicle 3 through wireless mode.
[0031] The transmitting vehicle 1 is also provided with a locking device and a dedicated computer; the 1# receiving vehicle 2 and the 2# receiving vehicle 3 are also provided with a Wifi module, a hub motor and a locking device.
[0032] The dedicated computer of the transmitting vehicle 1 transmits data with the 1# receiving vehicle 2 and the 2# receiving vehicle 3 through the Wifi module, and sends a braking command to the 1# receiving vehicle 2 and the 2# receiving vehicle 3 to brake the wheel hub motor.
[0033] The two receiving vehicles transmit information such as the receiving vehicle's speed and mileage location back to the software on the dedicated computer through the wireless Wifi module. When arriving at the designated measurement location, the software will send a braking command through the wireless Wifi, the hub motor will brake, and the locking device will automatically lock after parking, and the measurement will begin. The receiver's measurement data will be transmitted back to the software.
[0034] The transmitting vehicle 1, the 1# receiving vehicle 2 and the 2# receiving vehicle 3 have the functions of mileage measurement, inclination measurement and mechanism tensioning.
[0035] The laser beam emitted by the laser transmitter of the transmitting vehicle 1 irradiates the laser receivers of the 1# receiving vehicle 2 and the 2# receiving vehicle 3 simultaneously.
[0036] Two running wheels 4 are arranged on both sides of the longitudinal beam of the T-shaped frame of the 1# receiving car 2 and the 2# receiving car 3, which are driven by a hub motor. An mileage measuring wheel 5 is installed under the frame on one side of the running wheel 4, and a pulse encoder is used to measure the mileage of the 1# receiving car 2 and the 2# receiving car 3.
[0037] After the launch vehicle 1 moves, the 1# receiving vehicle 2 and the 2# receiving vehicle 3 automatically follow according to the measured chord length set in the dedicated computer of the launch vehicle 1.
[0038] Transmitter vehicle 1, 1# receiving vehicle 2 and 2# receiving vehicle 3 adopt a multi-level speed running mode, and the high-speed running distance threshold is set in a dedicated computer.
[0039] That is, when measuring, enter the specified measurement chord length in the software interface. When the transmitting vehicle moves, the two receiving vehicles will automatically follow the input chord length. Figure 6 In order to improve the measurement efficiency, a multi-speed running mode is adopted, and the high-speed running distance threshold is set in the software. According to the position of the trolley, it is judged in real time whether to slow down and brake, and closed-loop feedback control is realized to ensure the accuracy of the measured mileage, taking into account both the measurement efficiency and the measurement accuracy.
[0040] The system uses a laser long chord to detect medium and long wave irregularities of 30m and 60m chords of the track; uses high-precision GPS and high-precision odometer to achieve T-shaped frame positioning, and the laser receiver uses a high-speed image sensor.
[0041] During the measurement process, the utility model Figure 1 , point O is the laser emission point, and the line laser hits point A and point B of the 1# receiving car 2 and 2# receiving car 3 respectively, forming a three-point chord with a chord length of 2L. Then the measured positive vector distance h is
[0042] h = (X a + L a ) - (L o + L b + X b ) / 2 (1)
[0043] Where: X a , X b are the positions of the lasers on the 1# receiving vehicle and the 2# receiving vehicle respectively, and L o , L a , L b are the fixed parameters of the transmitting vehicle, the 1# receiving vehicle 2, and the 2# receiving vehicle 3 respectively.
[0044] When the laser beam is disturbed by factors such as frame vibration and wind speed, resulting in laser long chord disturbance, as Figure 5 shown, a deviation △A is generated at point A and a deviation △B is generated at point B. At this time, the actual three-point chord is OA”B”. Since the laser jitter is extremely small and satisfies BB” << OB, it can be considered that OB = OB”. Then there is BB” = 2AA”. At this time, the formula for the sagitta distance is:
[0045] h = (X a + AA' + L a ) - (L o + L b + X b + BB') / 2
[0046] = (X a + L a ) - (L o + L b + X b ) / 2 + AA' - BB' / 2
[0047] = (X a + L a ) - (L o + L b + X b ) / 2 (2)
[0048] It can be seen from equations (1) and (2) that the three-point laser collimation model eliminates the influence of laser jitter and improves the measurement accuracy.
[0049] The utility model adopts advanced three-point photoelectric measurement technology to solve the problem of zero-point drift of long-distance laser long chord, realizes the function of real-time measurement of internal track geometric parameters such as track height and track direction and detection of medium and long wave chord smoothness, meets the application conditions in the turnout area, realizes precise positioning and automatic following functions of the frame through high-precision positioning technology and frame running automatic control technology, reduces the measurement error caused by mileage error, and reduces the complexity of manual operation at the same time, and improves the track detection accuracy and eliminates the medium and long wave unevenness of the line through digital and intelligent fine-tuning technical solutions.
[0050] Based on the three-point laser alignment measurement model, combined with the sensor data such as gauge, superelevation, odometer, etc., after importing the design line data, the track direction, height, superelevation (horizontal), gauge, distortion, gauge change rate and other smoothness indicators are measured. The laser receiver uses a high-speed image sensor to increase the measurement speed, eliminate the influence of stray light such as background light on the laser beam, and improve the measurement accuracy and response speed; a three-point laser alignment detection model for small radius curves is constructed, and the mechanical structure and internal parameters of the frame are adjusted to meet the measurement needs of small radius curves.
[0051] High-precision GPS and high-precision odometer are used to achieve precise positioning of the frame, and the frame automatic following function is realized through the frame motor automatic control technology. At the same time, the mileage automatic correction function is realized to reduce the measurement error caused by mileage error, while reducing the complexity of manual operation, and realizing the simplification and intelligence of track detection.
[0052] By analyzing the type and structure of the turnout, combined with the characteristics of the three-point laser alignment model, the mechanical structure and related parameters of the transmitting and receiving vehicles are adjusted to meet the applicability of the turnout area. A turnout area smoothness analysis model is constructed to truly meet the smoothness detection of the turnout area.
[0053] Realize the function of medium and long wave smoothness detection, write software to optimize the line deviation according to the selected smoothness index, ensure that the adjustment is based on the original deviation, automatically correct the line unevenness according to the "peak clipping" or "valley filling" adjustment method, standardize the adjustable range, add adjacent deviation difference constraints, further improve the "broken bend" phenomenon of the remaining deviation, and obtain the tamping vehicle starting and shifting operation volume that meets the line smoothness requirements.
[0054] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the utility model, and does not limit the utility model in other forms. Any technician familiar with the profession may use the technical content disclosed above to change or modify it into an equivalent embodiment with equivalent changes. However, any simple modification, equivalent change and modification made to the above embodiment based on the technical essence of the utility model without departing from the technical solution of the utility model still belongs to the protection scope of the technical solution of the utility model.
