Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a training facility for training technologies related to sluice facilities of dams and rivers.

Background Art

[0002] In recent years, flood disasters and the like due to heavy rainfall that occurs frequently and on a large scale have occurred frequently. In addition, the aging of existing sluice facilities has been accelerating. Therefore, the need for proper and effective maintenance management of sluice facilities as disaster prevention and mitigation measures has been increasing. On the other hand, the aging of engineers who perform maintenance management and maintenance of sluice facilities has been progressing, and a decrease in skilled workers has been a concern. For this reason, there is a demand for creating a system for cultivating human resources for the purpose of securing engineers for sluice facilities.

[0003] As a training method for cultivating engineers, there is known a method of providing a simulation function for actual sluice facilities (see Patent Documents 1 and 2). The one described in Patent Document 1 provides a dynamic simulation function that performs real-time simulation in parallel with the actual operation in an existing dam facility, enabling proof tests and operation training of control devices and the like. The one described in Patent Document 2 is a dam management system that performs actual operation and has a dam training management device to enable both actual operation and training.

[0004] In addition, as other training methods, there are known those that perform training entirely by computer (see Patent Document 3) and those that use a dedicated training facility (see Patent Document 4). The one described in Patent Document 3 is a dam discharge operation simulation system that can remotely simulate training for dam discharge operations using a dam operation training server and an external terminal without using actual equipment. The one described in Patent Document 4 is a facility equipped with trainer equipment having a trainer desk and a communication desk, etc., and trainer equipment that simulates a monitoring operation desk installed in an actual dam management office, and includes a trainer desk for performing gate operations and a discharge warning operation desk for operating a discharge warning device.

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Microfilm of Utility Model Application No. 61-11633 (Utility Model Publication No. 62-125902) [Patent Document 2] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2002-032008 [Patent Document 3] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2008-040354 [Patent Document 4] Patent No. 2519161 [Overview of the project] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]

[0006] However, the methods described in Patent Documents 1 and 2 have the problem that conducting training requires trainees to travel to actual sluice gate facilities, resulting in high training costs and poor convenience.

[0007] On the other hand, the methods described in Patent Documents 3 and 4 are considered to be able to solve these problems. However, in the method described in Patent Document 4, although an actual machine is placed for the machine-side control panel, the gate device is simulated without using an actual machine. Also, in the method described in Patent Document 3, all devices are simulated without using actual machines. Although recent simulation technology has become more realistic, from the perspective of effective training, it is preferable to be able to observe the actual operation of an actual machine or an equivalent device.

[0008] On the other hand, the methods described in Patent Documents 1 and 2 are preferable to those described in Patent Documents 3 and 4 in that they allow observation of actual equipment. However, in actual sluice gate facilities, the main components, such as the machine-side control panel, gate opening / closing device, and gate body and door stopper, are installed in different locations. Therefore, when conducting training, trainees operate the machine-side control panel, but they cannot directly observe how the gate opening / closing device and gate equipment operate as a result of this operation. Consequently, this presents a problem in that it is unsuitable for effective training from the standpoint of understanding the structure, principle, operation, and troubleshooting of each device. This perspective is particularly important for beginners regarding sluice gate facilities.

[0009] This invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to provide a training facility that allows training to be conducted in urban areas and other locations without having to visit actual sluice gate facilities, and that enables effective training. [Means for solving the problem]

[0010] To achieve the above objective, the present invention provides a training facility for training in technology related to dam and river sluice gate equipment, wherein a machine-side control panel, a gate opening / closing device controlled by the machine-side control panel, and a simulated gate device that performs simulated opening and closing operations by driving the gate opening / closing device and also provides a drive load to the gate opening / closing device are installed on the same floor, and the gate opening / closing device and the simulated gate device are each positioned to be visible from the operating position of the machine-side control panel. Furthermore, the simulated gate device includes a door body smaller than that of the actual machine or a weight that replaces the driving load of the door body on the gate opening and closing device, the gate opening and closing device is of the wire rope winch type, and on other floors located higher than the floor where the machine-side control panel, the gate opening and closing device, and the simulated gate device are installed, there are suspension devices that suspend the door body or the weight of the simulated gate device so that it can be driven up and down by the wire rope of the gate opening and closing device. It is characterized by the following: Furthermore, the present invention relates to a training facility for training in technology related to dam and river sluice gate equipment, wherein a machine-side control panel, a gate opening and closing device controlled by the machine-side control panel, and a simulated gate device that performs simulated opening and closing operations by driving the gate opening and closing device and also provides a drive load to the gate opening and closing device are installed on the same floor, and the gate opening and closing device and the simulated gate device are each positioned to be visible from the operating position of the machine-side control panel. Furthermore, the simulated gate device includes a door body smaller than that of the actual machine or a weight that replaces the driving load of the door body on the gate opening and closing device, the gate opening and closing device is hydraulic and equipped with a hydraulic cylinder, the hydraulic cylinder is located on another floor higher than the floor where the machine-side control panel, the gate opening and closing device, and the simulated gate device are installed, and is positioned above the gate opening and closing device, with its lower end connected to the door body or the weight of the simulated gate device. It is characterized by the following: [Effects of the Invention]

[0011] According to the present invention, the machine-side control panel, gate opening / closing device, and simulated gate device are all installed on a single floor, making it possible to realize a training facility in a small building. Therefore, training can be conducted not only in locations such as rivers and dams, but also in urban areas, for example. Furthermore, according to the present invention, the gate opening / closing device and the simulated gate device can be seen from the operating position of the machine-side control panel, making it easy to intuitively understand the structure, principle, operation, and troubleshooting of each device, thus enabling effective training.

[Figure 6] A view of the gate opening / closing device and simulated gate device of a hydraulic sluice gate system from the operating position. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0013] A training facility according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Figure 1 is a schematic plan view of the training facility, Figure 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view illustrating the arrangement of the wire rope winch type sluice gate equipment, Figure 3 is a schematic cross-sectional view illustrating the arrangement of the hydraulic type sluice gate equipment, Figure 4 is a configuration diagram of the equipment installed in the training facility, Figure 5 is a view of the gate opening / closing device and simulated gate device of the wire rope winch type sluice gate equipment from the operating position, and Figure 6 is a view of the gate opening / closing device and simulated gate device of the hydraulic type sluice gate equipment from the operating position.

[0014] The training facility according to this embodiment is a two-story building constructed in an urban area. A mezzanine floor is further formed in the first-floor space of the training facility. Here, the first floor is referred to as the first floor 1, and the mezzanine floor is referred to as the second floor 2. The first floor 1 and the second floor 2 can communicate with each other via a staircase 3. Lecture rooms, remote operation training rooms, etc. are provided in the second-floor space of the training facility.

[0015] As shown in FIG. 1, on the first floor 1, the main component devices of both the wire rope winch type floodgate facility 100 and the hydraulic type floodgate facility 200 are installed respectively. That is, on the first floor 1, as the wire rope winch type floodgate facility 100, a machine-side operation panel 110, a gate opening / closing device 120, and a simulated gate device 130 are installed. Also, on the first floor 1, as the hydraulic type floodgate facility 200, a machine-side operation panel 210, a gate opening / closing device 220, and a simulated gate device 230 are installed. Here, the simulated gate devices 130 and 230 are devices that perform a simulated opening / closing operation by driving the gate opening / closing devices 120 and 220 and apply a driving load to the gate opening / closing devices 120 and 220. That is, the simulated gate devices 130 and 230 simulate the functions of a real gate device having a door body, a door stop, etc. The configuration of the simulated gate devices 130 and 230 will be described later.

[0016] The wire rope winch type machine-side control panel 110 is positioned close to the wall surface 1a of the first floor 1, with its rear facing the wall surface 1a. Therefore, the front of the machine-side control panel 110 faces inward towards the first floor 1. The wire rope winch type gate opening and closing device 120 is located near the machine-side control panel 110, between the wall surface 1a of the first floor 1 and the wall surface 1c facing the wall surface 1a, and is positioned close to the wall surface 1b of the first floor 1. The wire rope winch type simulated gate device 130 is positioned near the corner where the walls 1b and 1c of the first floor 1 meet. Therefore, the simulated gate device 130 is positioned such that the distance between it and the machine-side control panel 110 is greater than the distance between the gate opening and closing device 120 and the machine-side control panel 110. In other words, the distance between the machine-side control panel 110 and the gate opening / closing device 120 is shorter than the distance between the machine-side control panel 110 and the simulated gate device 130. This positional relationship allows for a more intuitive understanding of the control and operation flow of the sluice gate equipment.

[0017] Here, as shown in Figures 1 and 5, the gate opening / closing device 120 and the simulated gate device 130 are both visible simultaneously from the operating position 101 of the machine-side control panel 110. Furthermore, it is preferable to position the gate opening / closing device 120 and the simulated gate device 130 in a location where the operating sounds and vibrations of both can be felt from the operating position 101 of the machine-side control panel 110. Note that the operating position 101 of the machine-side control panel 110 is within a range of approximately 1 meter from the front of the machine-side control panel 110. Also, please note that "visible from the operating position 101 of the machine-side control panel 110" does not mean that the buttons on the machine-side control panel 110 are being operated. Rather, it is sufficient that the gate opening / closing device 120 and the simulated gate device 130 can be seen by rotating the head or the entire body from the operating position 101 of the machine-side control panel 110.

[0018] The wire rope winch type machine side operation panel 110 has the same configuration and functions as the actual machine deployed in actual river and dam sluice facilities, and its size is also the same as that of the actual machine. Also, as shown in Fig. 4, a simulation signal generator 111 that outputs simulation signals for training is connected to the machine side operation panel 110. This simulation signal generator 111 is operated by an instructor according to the training stage, and is configured so that the full opening / full closing of the gate device and the detection of failures can be easily generated and restored on the machine side operation panel 110. Also, the machine side operation panel 110 is connected via the remote control device 300 installed in the remote operation training room on the second floor of the training facility and the in-plant LAN 400.

[0019] The wire rope winch type gate opening / closing device 120 has the same configuration and functions as the actual 1-motor 2-drum type machine deployed in actual river and dam sluice facilities. However, the gate opening / closing device 120 according to the present embodiment differs from the actual machine in the following points.

[0020] The gate opening / closing device 120 is slightly smaller than the actual machine within a range such that the operation during the drive control of the simulation gate device 130 is almost the same as the operation of the gate opening / closing device of the actual machine. As will be described later, the simulation gate device 130 is smaller and lighter than the gate device of the actual machine. Therefore, the driving ability of the gate opening / closing device 120 may be lower than that of the gate opening / closing device of the actual machine.

[0021] Generally, the gate opening / closing device is configured to be able to connect an external drive source assuming a power loss. Examples of connectable external drive sources include an engine and a manual handle. And, depending on the scale and importance, the actual gate opening / closing device is configured to be able to connect only one of the external drive sources of the engine or the manual handle, or both the engine and the manual handle as external drive sources. The gate opening / closing device 120 according to the present embodiment is configured to be able to connect both the engine and the manual handle as external drive sources.

[0022] Furthermore, in the gate opening and closing device 120, some of the components that are made of sheet metal in the actual machine are made of transparent material such as acrylic. In the gate opening and closing device 120 according to this embodiment, the reduction gear top plate and the open gear cover are made of acrylic.

[0023] The wire rope winch type simulated gate device 130 has the same configuration and function as the actual gate devices that are permanently open and deployed in real river and dam sluice gate facilities. The simulated gate device 130 according to this embodiment has a roller gate structure. Specifically, the simulated gate device 130 includes a gate body 131 with rollers attached to the left and right sides, and a gate stopper (not shown) that guides the vertical movement of the gate body. However, the simulated gate device 130 according to this embodiment differs from the actual device in the following respects.

[0024] The simulated gate device 130 is smaller than the actual device. Specifically, the door body 131 of the simulated gate device 130 is about half the size of the actual device. In addition, the door body 131 of the simulated gate device 130 is equipped with a load adjustment weight 132 to provide an appropriate drive load to the gate opening and closing device 120.

[0025] The simulated gate device 130 according to this embodiment uses watertight rubber (not shown) attached to the left and right edges of the door body 131, with different shapes on the left and right sides. This is to allow trainees to learn about the different types of watertight rubber.

[0026] As shown in Figure 2, above the simulated gate device 130, on the second floor 2, a suspension device 140 is installed that suspends the door body 131 of the simulated gate device 130 so that it can be driven up and down by the wire rope 129 of the gate opening / closing device 120. The suspension device 140 is equipped with a sheave 141 for changing the direction of the wire rope 129 from the direction of the gate opening / closing device 120, i.e., diagonally downward, to the direction of the simulated gate device 130, i.e., downward. The suspension device 140 is also equipped with a terminal device 142 for fixing the end of the wire rope 129 that has passed through the sheave of the simulated gate device 130.

[0027] Through holes 2b and 2c are formed in the floor surface 2a of the second floor 2 for inserting a wire rope 129. The wire rope 129 is hung from the wire drum of the gate opening / closing device 120 through the through hole 2b of the second floor 2 to the sheave 141 of the lifting device 140, and then from the lifting device 140 through the through hole 2c to suspend the door body 131 of the simulated gate device 130, with the end connected to the terminal device 142 of the lifting device 140.

[0028] As shown in Figure 1, the hydraulic machine-side control panel 210 is positioned close to the wall surface 1a of the first floor 1, with its rear facing the wall surface 1a, and is located to the side of the wire rope winch machine-side control panel 110. Therefore, the front of the machine-side control panel 210 faces inward towards the first floor 1. The hydraulic gate opening / closing device 220 is located between the wall surfaces 1a and 1c of the first floor 1, near the machine-side control panel 210. The hydraulic simulated gate device 230 is located near the wall surface 1c of the first floor 1. Therefore, the simulated gate device 230 is positioned such that the distance between it and the machine-side control panel 210 is greater than the distance between the gate opening / closing device 220 and the machine-side control panel 210. In other words, the distance between the machine-side control panel 210 and the gate opening / closing device 220 is closer than the distance between the machine-side control panel 210 and the simulated gate device 230. This spatial relationship allows for a more intuitive understanding of the control and operation flow of the sluice gate equipment.

[0029] Here, as shown in Figures 1 and 6, the gate opening / closing device 220 and the simulated gate device 230 are both visible simultaneously from the operating position 201 of the machine-side control panel 210. Furthermore, it is preferable to position the gate opening / closing device 220 and the simulated gate device 230 in a location where their operating sounds and vibrations can be felt from the operating position 201 of the machine-side control panel 210. Note that the operating position 201 of the machine-side control panel 210 is within approximately 1 meter from the front of the machine-side control panel 210. Also, please note that "visible from the operating position 201 of the machine-side control panel 210" does not mean that the buttons on the machine-side control panel 210 are being operated. Rather, it is sufficient that the gate opening / closing device 220 and the simulated gate device 230 can be seen by rotating the head or the entire body from the operating position 201 of the machine-side control panel 210.

[0030] The hydraulic on-site control panel 210 has the same configuration and functions as actual equipment deployed in real river and dam sluice gate facilities, and its size is also the same as that of actual equipment. Furthermore, a simulated signal generator 211 is connected to the on-site control panel 210 for training purposes. This simulated signal generator 211 is operated by the instructor according to the training stage, and is configured to allow for easy generation and recovery of signals such as full opening / closing of the gate device and detection of malfunctions from the on-site control panel 210. The on-site control panel 210 is also connected to a remote control device 300 installed in the remote control training room on the second floor of the training facility via the on-site LAN 400.

[0031] The hydraulic gate opening and closing device 220 has the same configuration and functions as actual devices deployed in real river and dam sluice gate facilities. However, the gate opening and closing device 220 according to this embodiment differs from the actual device in the following respects.

[0032] As will be described later, the simulated gate device 230 is a device that applies a predetermined weight load, and this weight load is smaller than that of the actual gate device. Therefore, the driving capacity of the gate opening and closing device 220 may be lower than that of the actual gate opening and closing device.

[0033] Generally, hydraulic gate opening and closing devices are equipped with one type of hydraulic circuit. On the other hand, the gate opening and closing device 220 according to this embodiment is equipped with multiple different types of hydraulic circuits. Accordingly, the gate opening and closing device 220 according to this embodiment is equipped with a switching circuit to switch between hydraulic circuits. Specifically, the gate opening and closing device 220 according to this embodiment is equipped with a meter-in / meter-out circuit and a counterbalance circuit as flow control circuits for the hydraulic circuits, and is further equipped with a switching circuit to switch between both circuits.

[0034] Furthermore, in the gate opening and closing device 220, some of the components that are made of sheet metal in the actual machine are made of transparent material such as acrylic. In the gate opening and closing device 220 according to this embodiment, the front, left and right sides, and back are made of acrylic.

[0035] As shown in Figure 3, the hydraulic simulated gate device 230 includes a weight 231 that provides an appropriate weight load to the gate opening / closing device 220, and a guide mechanism 232 that guides the vertical movement of the weight. The weight load is smaller than that of the actual gate device. Note that the simulated gate device 230 does not include a gate body. That is, the weight 231 functions as a means to substitute for the drive load on the gate opening / closing device 220. In this embodiment, the simulated gate device 230 can be made smaller than the actual device due to this structure, thereby reducing costs and saving space. For training on the structure, principle, operation, and troubleshooting of the actual gate device, refer to the simulated gate device 130 of the wire rope winch type sluice gate system.

[0036] Above the simulated gate device 230, on the second floor 2, is a hydraulic cylinder 221 which constitutes the gate opening / closing device 220. The lower end of the hydraulic cylinder 221 is connected to the upper part of the weight 231 of the simulated gate device 230 through a through hole 2d formed in the floor 2a of the second floor 2. The hydraulic cylinder 221 and the gate opening / closing device 220 body are connected by a hydraulic pipe 222. Here, the hydraulic pipe 222 is routed so that the drive load on the gate opening / closing device 220 body is appropriate. In this embodiment, the gate opening / closing device 220 body and the hydraulic cylinder 221 are not connected by the shortest possible route, but are routed along the walls of the first floor 1 and the second floor 2.

[0037] As detailed above, according to this embodiment, the machine-side control panels 110, 210, gate opening and closing devices 120, 220, and simulated gate devices 130, 230 are all installed on the first floor 1, so a training facility can be realized in a small building. Therefore, training can be conducted not only in locations such as rivers and dams, but also in urban areas, for example.

[0038] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the wire rope winch type sluice gate equipment 100 and the hydraulic type sluice gate equipment 200 are installed on the same floor, and the wire rope winch type machine-side control panel 110 and the hydraulic type machine-side control panel 210 are located adjacent to each other, thus enabling efficient training.

[0039] Furthermore, according to this embodiment, the gate opening and closing devices 120, 220 and simulated gate devices 130, 230 can be seen from the operating positions 101, 201 of the machine-side control panels 110, 210, making it easier to intuitively understand the structure, principle, operation, and troubleshooting of each device, thus enabling effective training. In addition, according to this embodiment, the operating sounds and vibrations of the gate opening and closing devices 120, 220 and simulated gate devices 130, 230 can be experienced from the operating positions 101, 201 of the machine-side control panels 110, 210, making it even easier to intuitively understand the structure, principle, operation, and troubleshooting of each device, thus enabling effective training.

[0040] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the simulated gate device 130 for the wire rope type sluice gate system 100 has a configuration almost identical to that of the actual system, including the gate body 131, while the simulated gate device 230 for the hydraulic type sluice gate system 200 does not include the gate body and is configured to provide the driving load using a weight 231. In this way, the simulated gate device 230 for the hydraulic type sluice gate system 200 does not include the gate body, so the training facility can be made more compact. It should be noted that training on the structure and operation of the gate device can be sufficient by using the simulated gate device 130 for the wire rope type sluice gate system 100.

[0041] Although one embodiment of the present invention has been described in detail above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various improvements and modifications may be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

[0042] For example, in the above embodiment, a wire rope winch type sluice gate system 100 and a hydraulic type sluice gate system 200 were installed in the training facility, but only one of them may be installed. In this case, the training facility can be made more compact.

[0043] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the simulated gate device 130 in the wire rope type sluice gate equipment 100 has a configuration almost identical to that of the actual equipment, including the gate body 131, while the simulated gate device 230 in the hydraulic type sluice gate equipment 200 does not include the gate body and is configured to provide the driving load with a weight 231. However, the simulated gate device 230 in the hydraulic type sluice gate equipment 200 may have a configuration almost identical to that of the actual equipment, including the gate body, while the simulated gate device 130 in the wire rope type sluice gate equipment 100 may be configured to provide the driving load with a weight and does not include the gate body 131.

[0044] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, a wire rope winch type sluice gate equipment 100 and a hydraulic type sluice gate equipment 200 were placed in the training facility, but other training equipment may also be placed. In particular, in the above embodiment, only the lifting equipment 140 and hydraulic cylinder 221 are installed on the second floor 2, leaving a large amount of space unused. Therefore, by placing other training equipment on the second floor 2, a variety of training can be conducted. In other words, the training facility can be used spatially efficiently. Other training equipment includes devices related to sluice gate equipment, such as manual opening and closing devices for small sluice gates, devices for simulating grease filling work, and various tools used for operating and maintaining sluice gate equipment. In addition, it is preferable from the viewpoint of effective training to place other training equipment that is related to the various equipment installed on the first floor 1. In this case, it is even preferable from the viewpoint of effective training to arrange the flow of movement so that it is possible to move smoothly from the first floor 1 to the second floor 2.
