[0002] With the rapid development of society, the exchanges between cities are becoming increasingly frequent. In order to shorten the travel time of people between cities, China has carried out large-scale high-speed railway construction and put it into operation. How to enable passengers to wait for trains accurately and orderly is an important symbol to improve the service level of high-speed railways.
[0003] At present, China's high-speed railways have the characteristics of many types of train models, and the number and positions of the doors of each train model are not completely the same. When waiting for trains on high-speed railway platforms, platform ground markings and station staff guidance are mainly used.

All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments in the utility model without creative efforts fall within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0022] Embodiment 1
[0023] This embodiment discloses a waiting guidance system applied to rail transit (hereinafter referred to as the waiting guidance system). As a basic implementation scheme of the present utility model, it includes a number of waiting guidance terminals respectively communicatively connected to the PSC end of the platform door system. The waiting guidance terminal includes a central processing unit, a power supply input unit, a DC5V power supply unit, a trigger signal communication unit, an RJ45 signal communication unit, and an LED driving unit.
[0024] The power supply input unit is electrically connected to the central processing unit, the DC5V power supply unit, and the LED driving unit respectively, and is used to access an external power supply.
[0025] The DC5V power supply unit is connected to the LED display screen and provides a working power supply for the LED display screen; the central processing unit is communicatively connected to the DC5V power supply unit and is used to detect the voltage signal in the DC5V power supply unit.
[0026] The trigger signal communication unit is communicatively connected to the central processing unit and is used to obtain the platform door activity status signal and send it to the central processing unit.
[0027] The RJ45 signal communication unit is communicatively connected to the central processing unit and is used to obtain the station service information of the PSC end and send it to the central processing unit, and provide a channel for external devices to configure parameters, update data, and maintain the waiting guidance terminal.
[0028] The LED driving unit is communicatively connected to the central processing unit and is used to cooperate with the central processing unit to control the display content of the LED screen. The display content includes the platform door activity status and the station service information.
[0029] Based on the composition structure of the above waiting guidance system, in actual use, the waiting guidance terminals and LED display screens are installed corresponding to the number and position of the platform door groups on the platform site one by one. For example Figure 3As shown in the figure, the waiting guidance terminal and the LED display screen can be embedded in the top box above the corresponding shield door group. For each single shield door, the control terminal of the shield door is communicatively connected to the central processor through the trigger signal communication unit; the DC 5V power supply unit is electrically connected to the LED display screen; the LED display screen is communicatively connected to the central processor through the LED drive unit; the trigger signal communication unit is communicatively connected to the DCU controller (Door Control Unit, platform unit door controller, hereinafter referred to as the DCU controller); then, through the RJ45 signal communication unit, a protocol communication is established between the central processor and the PSC (central control panel) end or other management devices. Among them, in the prior art, the PSC (central control panel) end is a part of the PSD system (platform screen door system), and can obtain station service information, including train model and number information, operation time information, station prompts and warnings, etc. Other management devices such as programmable industrial computers are used to interact with the central processor to configure / maintain data through the RJ45 signal communication unit. The DCU controller is a part of the PSD system (platform screen door system), and provides the DCU controller signal (i.e., the trigger signal) for the trigger signal communication unit in this technical solution.
[0030] Based on the above installation structure, the working principle of this technical solution is as follows: The external power supply is accessed through the power supply input unit, and the power supply input unit converts the external power supply into working power supplies respectively leading to the central processor, the DC 5V power supply unit, and the LED drive unit. In this way, when the waiting guidance terminal is started, this technical solution supplies power to the LED display screen through the DC 5V power supply unit. After the PSC (central control panel) end obtains the station service information, based on the protocol communication (such as network protocols like TCP / IP or UDP) established with the trigger signal communication unit, the station service information is sent to the central processor. After the central processor processes the station service information, it controls the LED display screen to display through the LED drive unit.
[0031] In this technical solution, the waiting guidance terminal is only used as a terminal device. The content displayed on the LED display screen driven by this terminal device is sent from the PSC (central control panel) end to this terminal device, and this terminal device is responsible for displaying the content sent from the PSC (central control panel) end on the LED display screen according to the correct driving timing. The PSC (central control panel) end calculates the location of this device based on the installation location of the waiting guidance terminal in this technical solution (the device installation location has been saved in the waiting guidance terminal device as device attribute information during the debugging of the waiting guidance terminal device), combined with the corresponding station service information. Specifically: the station service information contains train model data. Based on the installation location of the waiting guidance terminal and the train model data, the car body number of the arriving train at the current waiting guidance terminal can be obtained, and based on this, the station service information is sent to the corresponding waiting guidance terminal for display.
[0032] In summary, a waiting guidance system disclosed by this technical solution includes several waiting guidance terminals. First, by setting an RJ45 signal communication unit in the waiting guidance terminal, it supports establishing communication with the PSC (Central Control Panel) end of the platform screen door system and other management devices, facilitating the adaptive increase or decrease of the number of waiting guidance terminals and LED display screens according to the number of screen doors, solving the problem of limited number of display terminals in the prior art, and at the same time providing convenience for data update and maintenance of the waiting guidance terminal. In addition, the waiting guidance terminal of this technical solution has a specific corresponding relationship with the nearby screen door, that is, uniqueness, and supports directly indicating the movement state of the corresponding screen door body. According to the position of the screen door, it accurately and intuitively displays station service information such as the corresponding train type and carriage for a single screen door.
[0033] Embodiment 2
[0034] This embodiment discloses a waiting guidance system applied to rail transit. As a basic implementation scheme of the present utility model, that is, based on Embodiment 1, its power supply input unit includes a DC24V input interface, a protection / filter module, a DCDC5V conversion circuit, and an LDO3.3V conversion circuit that are electrically connected in sequence; wherein, the DCDC5V conversion circuit is electrically connected to the DC5V power supply unit, and the LDO3.3V conversion circuit is electrically connected to the central controller and the LED driving unit respectively.
[0035] Based on the composition structure of the above power supply input unit, external 24V direct current is accessed through the DC24V input interface and enters the DCDC5V conversion circuit after passing through the protection / filter module. During this period, the protection / filter module plays the roles of overcurrent protection, reverse connection protection, surge and electrostatic protection, and power supply filtering. The DCDC5V conversion circuit converts 24V direct current into 5V direct current and inputs 5V direct current to the DC5V power supply unit and the LDO3.3V conversion circuit respectively. Among them, the 5V direct current input to the DC5V power supply unit is used to provide a working power supply for the LED display screen. The LDO3.3V conversion circuit (low dropout linear voltage regulator circuit) converts 5V direct current into 3.3V direct current and inputs 3.3V working power supply to the central processor and the LED driving unit respectively.
[0036] Embodiment 3
[0037] This embodiment discloses a waiting guidance system applied to rail transit. As a basic implementation scheme of the present utility model, that is, based on Embodiment 1 or 2, its DC5V power supply unit includes a DC5V output interface and a current limiting / control module; the DC5V output interface is communicatively connected to the central processor through the current limiting / control module, and the power supply input unit is electrically connected to the current limiting / control module.
[0038] Among them, the current limiting / control module adopts a hardware-structured current limiting control scheme, that is, a self-resetting fuse based on specified parameters. When an overcurrent of 5V occurs between the DC5V output interface and the LED screen interface terminal, the current limiting / control module automatically performs power-off protection. During this period, the central processor continuously detects the DC5V voltage input by the power supply input unit (specifically, the DCDC5V conversion circuit) to the DC5V power supply unit (specifically, the current limiting / control module), monitors this DC5V voltage, and when it detects that the DC5V voltage drop caused by the LED display load is too large, it will reduce the power of the LED display through the LED driving unit.
[0039] Embodiment 4
[0040] This embodiment discloses a waiting area guiding system applied to rail transit. As a basic implementation scheme of the present utility model, that is, based on Embodiment 1, 2 or 3, its trigger signal communication unit includes a trigger signal interface and an isolation circuit module; the trigger signal interface is communicatively connected to the central processor through the isolation circuit module.
[0041] Among them, the trigger signal specifically refers to the DCU controller signal, that is, the acoustic and optical control signal output by the DCU controller in the PSD system, and this acoustic and optical control signal is a high / low signal of DC24V or DC0V. When the trigger signal is input into the central controller through the trigger signal interface via the isolation circuit module, the LED display screen is controlled by the LED driving unit to perform a flashing alarm. During the alarm, there is a corresponding interface interaction in the LED display screen, and the specific interaction form is selected by the user according to needs. For example: it can flash with a certain color fixed on the full screen, or a fixed border flashes around the LED display screen, and these are all implemented based on software. The corresponding states of the screen door body during the alarm mainly involve the closed state, the opening state, the fully opened state, and the anti-pinch state, etc., and these states can all be reflected by the display color or whether it flashes on the LED screen.
[0042] During this process, the isolation circuit module is designed based on an optocoupler structure to establish signal isolation between the trigger signal of the DCU controller and the waiting area guiding terminal, improving the anti-interference ability of this technical solution. In addition, the central processor continuously detects the output signal after the optocoupler (isolation circuit module), decodes this signal to identify the corresponding state of the screen door body, and drives the corresponding LED display screen to display the state / data through the LED driving unit.
[0043] Embodiment 5
[0044] This embodiment discloses a waiting guidance system applied to rail transit. As a basic implementation scheme of the present utility model, that is, based on Embodiment 1, 2, 3 or 4, its RJ45 signal communication unit includes an RJ45 interface and a network drive circuit; the RJ45 interface is communicatively connected to the central processor through the network drive circuit.
[0045] Among them, the RJ45 interface is used to connect to the PSC (central control panel) end or other management devices. The network drive circuit is the same as a network driver. The main function of the network driver is to map the shared directory in the local area network to the local drive letter, which is convenient for users to access the shared resources on the network. In this technical solution, the network drive circuit is used to implement TCP / IP or UDP communication with the PSC (central control panel) end or other management devices. Based on this, it supports the waiting guidance terminal to establish communication with a variety of external devices.
[0046] When the waiting guidance terminal is running normally, it uses the RJ45 interface to communicate with the PSC (central control panel) end or other devices / systems that can obtain station service information, and after obtaining the station service information and necessary information processing, it is sent to the LED display screen through the LED drive unit for display. Based on this, the PSC (central control panel) end sends station service information to the waiting guidance terminals at different positions respectively, so that station service information such as train type and number, current waiting carriage, carriage congestion level, and carriage air-conditioning cooling and heating can be accurately displayed for the corresponding trains. Therefore, the station service information has the characteristics of being real-time, diverse, and accurate. When system configuration and data maintenance are required, the RJ45 interface is used to communicate with an editable industrial computer or other devices / systems that can obtain configuration / maintenance data. In this way, the configuration update and data maintenance of the waiting guidance terminal can be easily realized with the help of external devices.
[0047] In summary, this technical solution supports real-time interaction with external devices / systems such as the PSC (central control panel) end through network communication to provide passengers with real-time in-station information; in addition, this technical solution is convenient for configuration update and display data content maintenance, and the display information can be adjusted according to needs to solve the problem of less in-station information provided to passengers.
[0048] Embodiment 6

[0050] In practical applications, the LED display screen is connected to the waiting guidance terminal through the LED driving interface. During the operation of the waiting guidance terminal, the IOBUFFER buffer circuit effectively isolates the central processor and the LED screen driving interface, thereby protecting the internal related circuits of the waiting guidance terminal and further improving the anti-interference ability of the technical solution.
[0051] Embodiment 7

As a basic implementation scheme of the present invention, that is, based on Embodiments 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 7, it further includes a font library module, and the font library module is communicatively connected to the central processor.
[0053] Among them, the font library module is a font library chip, which contains LED dot matrix data of each font attribute inside and is used to retrieve the LED dot matrix data when the LED dot matrix screen displays a specified font size.
[0054] Based on this, in the technical solution, after the central processor of the waiting guidance terminal receives the corresponding data signal through the trigger signal communication unit and the RJ45 signal communication unit, it adapts the corresponding font and font size coding content from the font library module, and then through the correct driving timing, sends the corresponding coding content to the LED display screen through the LED driving unit, so as to realize the display of the waiting guidance information.
