Detailed Implementation

[0041] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments, so that those skilled in the art can implement it based on the description.

[0042] As shown in Figures 1-10, this embodiment provides a fault simulation device for rail transit signaling equipment, which is connected between the switch machine and the control integration center. It includes a bracket 10, a mounting plate 102, a railway signal relay base 20, a railway relay group 30, a switch panel 40, and a circuit breaker 70.

[0043] The bracket 10 is provided with a detachable mounting plate 102 on the front side, and a support leg 101 is arranged at the bottom of the bracket 10. The railway signal relay base 20 is fixed on the mounting plate 102, and the pins of the railway relay group 30 are vertically inserted into the base socket to ensure reliable electrical contact. The plurality of button switches 401 of the switch panel 40 are respectively connected to the relay coil excitation circuit, the switch machine control circuit and the power supply circuit. By operating the button switch 401, the relay coil on-off can be controlled, and the simulation switch machine positive / negative position conversion action is simulated. When the circuit branch is disconnected by pressing the circuit breaker fault button switch 401, the simulation cable circuit breaker fault is simulated.

[0044] The circuit breaker 70 is connected in series in the switch machine power supply circuit, and the switch machine power supply circuit is simulated by manually disconnecting the circuit breaker 70.

[0045] The embodiment realizes the rapid replacement of the relay by combining the modular mounting plate 102 with the standardized railway signal relay base 20. The switch panel 40 concentrates the excitation control, switch machine switching and power supply shutdown functions through the button switch 401, which facilitates the rapid switching and visual operation of multiple types of faults, reduces the misoperation rate, realizes the "one-key" fault injection through the cooperation of the switch panel and the relay base, and is convenient and intuitive to operate. The technical problems of time-consuming and laborious, unstable fault points and low efficiency in the existing fault generation are solved.

[0046] In another embodiment, the track traffic signal equipment fault simulation device is connected between the switch machine and the control integrated center.

[0047] In another embodiment, the railway signal relay base 20 adopts the JWXC-1700 standard base, and the socket layout is fully matched with the AX series relay pins to ensure stable contact after the relay is inserted. The AX relay has high reliability, and the contact capacity is adapted to the load requirements of the railway signal circuit. The circuit breaker 70 is selected from the CBI series, such as CBI-16A, and the breaking capacity meets the protection requirements of the switch machine power supply circuit.

[0048] In another embodiment, the device is additionally provided with a state indicator light 60 installed in the display control area at the top of the support 10. The state indicator light 60 is connected in parallel with the auxiliary contact of the circuit breaker 70 through the normally open / normally closed contact of the relay contact circuit. When the DBJ coil of the positioning indicating relay is energized, its normally open contact is closed, lighting the positioning indicator light. When the FBJ coil of the reverse indicating relay is energized, its normally open contact is closed, lighting the reverse indicator light. If the circuit breaker 70 is open or both relays are de-energized, the breaking contact of the circuit breaker 70 simultaneously cuts off the main power supply and control power supply circuit of the switch machine, ensuring that the relay coil is de-energized, and the red indicator light is lit through the normally closed contact. This embodiment solves the problem of human observation of relay action errors in real time, improving the visualization and accuracy of fault simulation.

[0049] In another embodiment, the state indicator light 60 is a three-color LED, which is a green LED (L1), a yellow LED (L2), and a red LED (L3). The green LED is connected to the power supply through the normally open contact DBJ-1 of the positioning relay DBJ, and is lit when the DBJ is energized, indicating the positioning of the turnout. The yellow LED is connected through the normally open contact FBJ-1 of the FBJ, and is lit when the FBJ is energized, indicating the reverse position of the turnout. The red LED is connected in series through the normally closed contacts DBJ-2 and FBJ-2 of the DBJ and FBJ, and when both relays are de-energized and not energized, the series circuit is turned on, and the red LED is lit, indicating power failure or fault. This design solves the problem that the traditional single-color indicator light cannot distinguish between complex states, and directly reflects the turnout action and fault type through color coding, and the parallel normally closed contact design ensures that the red light immediately alarms when any relay is abnormally de-energized. Preferably, the green LED (L1), the yellow LED (L2), and the red LED (L3) can be connected in series with a protection resistor R (such as a 1kΩ resistor).

[0050] In another embodiment, the mounting plate 102 is provided with matrix mounting holes 103, each mounting hole 103 is provided with an insertion part 104, the insertion part 104 has a slot 105, the shape of the slot 105 matches the edge profile of the JWXC-1700 base. During installation, the base is pushed into the slot 105, and the back wiring terminal is exposed from the back of the mounting plate 102, which is convenient for wiring connection; the front relay insertion position is completely exposed, which is convenient for the insertion and removal of the relay. This structure solves the problem of low replacement efficiency caused by traditional welding or screw fixing, and realizes quick installation and maintenance of the base.

[0051] In another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, the inner wall of the slot 105 is provided with two guide ribs 106, which are metal or plastic ribs, and the base is provided with grooves 201 on both sides. During installation, the guide ribs 106 are in sliding fit with the grooves 201, ensuring the accurate insertion direction of the base; the top of the slot 105 is provided with an elastic lug 107 composed of spring steel sheets, which is deformed under pressure when the base is inserted, and snaps into the recess or the top of the base to achieve locking after being in place. This design solves the problem of alignment difficulty, and improves the installation precision and stability through the guide and self-locking structure.

[0052] In another embodiment, the mounting plate 102 is provided with a hanging hole 108, and the vertical beam of the support 10 is provided with a locking pin 111, which has a threaded structure 112 on the surface and a through hole on the front end 113, which is threadedly fixed with the vertical beam of the support 10. The inner concave arc surface 109 at the top of the hanging hole 108 is in contact with the outer convex arc surface of the locking pin 111, achieving self-positioning; when the threaded knob 115 at the end of the locking pin 111 is tightened, the nylon gasket 114 is pressed against the side wall of the mounting plate 102 to fix it. The guide inclined surface 110 at the bottom of the hanging hole 108 cooperates with the chamfered surface 116 of the locking pin 111 to guide the vertical falling of the mounting plate 102 to the installation position. This structure enables the mounting plate 102 to be automatically centered and positioned by its own weight, solving the time-consuming problem of traditional bolt adjustment and fixation. Only the bolt needs to be loosened and tightened, without the need to unscrew the bolt, to achieve quick disassembly and precise positioning of the mounting plate 102.

[0053] In another embodiment, the back of the support 10 is provided with a wire slot part 50, which has a plurality of independent wire slots 501, each of which has a U-shaped cross section and accommodates power lines, control lines and signal lines, respectively. Preferably, the inner wall of the slot is covered with a fire-retardant PVC gasket. The wire slot 501 is provided with a cover plate 502 at the opening end, which is opened and closed by sliding rails on both sides. This design solves the problem of difficult maintenance caused by messy wiring, and improves the efficiency and safety of cable management through classified wiring and detachable cover plate 502.

[0054] As shown in Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the implementation process of the device is as follows:

[0055] I. Circuit connection

[0056] 1. Power circuit

[0057] As shown in Figure 8 , the external power source (AC power supply AC 220V) is connected to the support power terminal, which is divided into two paths:

[0058] Main power circuit: output to the switch machine analog load through the circuit breaker;

[0059] Control power circuit: Converted to DC 24V via AC / DC step-down module (input AC220V, output DC24V / 1A) to power relay coils and indicator lights.

[0060] 2. For example Figure 9 and 10 As shown, the relay control circuit

[0061] Positioning relay circuit: Push button switch S1 → DBJ coil → DC 24V negative terminal. When S1 is pressed, DBJ is energized, its normally open contact closes, and the green LED (L1) lights up.

[0062] Reverse relay circuit: Push button switch S2 → FBJ coil → DC 24V negative terminal. When S2 is pressed, FBJ is engaged and the yellow LED (L2) lights up.

[0063] Interlocking logic: The normally closed contacts of DBJ and FBJ are connected in series in the coil circuit of the other to ensure that the two relays do not engage at the same time.

[0064] 3. Fault simulation circuit

[0065] Open circuit fault: Push button switch S3 is connected in series in the switch machine control circuit. Pressing S3 will cut off the branch current.

[0066] Power outage fault: Manually disconnect the circuit breaker to cut off the main power supply of the switch machine. The red LED (L3) will light up through the normally closed contacts of DBJ / FBJ. The red LED (L3) will only conduct when both DBJ and FBJ are de-energized to avoid false alarms due to single relay faults.

[0067] II. Simulation Operation Procedures for Actions and Faults

[0068] 1. Switch operation simulation

[0069] Positioning operation: Press button switch S1 → DBJ engages → Green LED lights up → Switch machine simulates positioning operation;

[0070] Reverse position operation: Press button switch S2 → FBJ engages → Yellow LED lights up → Switch machine simulates reverse position operation.

[0071] 2. Fault Simulation

[0072] Branch circuit break: Pressing button switch S3 → the switch machine control circuit is interrupted, simulating a cable break;

[0073] Switch power failure: Manually disconnect the circuit breaker → the main power supply to the switch machine is cut off, and the red LED lights up.

[0074] 3. Status Feedback and Reset

[0075] Real-time display of turnout state (green / yellow / red corresponds to positioning / anti-position / power-off) by three-color LED;

[0076] After troubleshooting, reset the button switch S3 or close the circuit breaker, and the device returns to the initial state.

[0077] Although the embodiments of the present application have been disclosed as above, it is not limited to the application listed in the specification and the embodiments. It can be fully applied to various fields suitable for the present application. For those skilled in the art, other modifications can be easily realized.
