[0085] As shown in Fig. 3, the fire alarm relay in the above embodiment is a centralized fire alarm relay, and its circuit connection mode is the same as that of the fire alarm relay; it can be understood that when there is no fire, the fire alarm relay K6 reaches a self-locking state through the normally open contact K2-4 of the fire alarm control relay K2, when the K6 is powered, the K6-1 is in a closed state, the first contact K6-2 and the second contact K6-3 of the fire alarm relay are disconnected, the lamp group circuit and the buzzer group circuit cannot be powered, the alarm lamp is off, and the buzzer does not emit a sound. When the fire controller FC1 detects that there is a fire in any area, the normally closed contact in the fire controller FC1 is disconnected, the self-locking contact K6-1 is powered off and disconnected, the fire alarm relay K6 is powered off, the first contact K6-1 and the second contact K6-2 are closed, the alarm lamp is on, and the buzzer emits a sound to prompt relevant personnel that there is a fire.

[0086] The lamp group circuit includes a plurality of alarm lamps connected in parallel, and each alarm lamp is connected in series with the first contact of the fire alarm relay K6 after being connected in parallel, and each alarm lamp can be arranged at different positions, such as corresponding detection areas (PIS cabinet detector, air conditioning cabinet detector, and converter temperature cable), a car end wall, a driver's desk, and a ground monitoring room; when a fire occurs, each alarm lamp is powered to alarm, so as to timely remind staff of the current fire and improve the safety factor of the train.

[0087] Correspondingly, the buzzer group circuit includes a plurality of buzzers connected in parallel, and each buzzer is connected in series with the second contact of the fire alarm relay K6 after being connected in parallel, and the arrangement position of each buzzer can be arranged according to the arrangement position of the alarm lamp described above, which will not be described herein.

[0089] The fire bypass control circuit includes a fire bypass control relay and a fire bypass switch connected in series, and the first contact and the second contact of the fire bypass control relay are connected in series with the lamp group circuit and the buzzer group circuit respectively; wherein the fire bypass switch is connected with the positive pole of the direct current power supply, and the contact coil of the fire bypass control relay is connected with the negative pole of the direct current power supply.

[0090] When a false alarm of a fire occurs, the fire bypass switch is manually controlled to be closed, the fire bypass control relay is powered, the first contact and the second contact of the fire bypass control relay are changed from a closed state to a disconnected state, the lamp group circuit and the buzzer group circuit are disconnected, the alarm lamp is not on, and the buzzer does not emit a sound.

[0091] As shown in Fig. 3, the specific circuit connection relationship of the sound-light alarm control circuit is as follows: the self-holding contact K6-1 of the centralized fire alarm relay K6 is connected with the internal normally closed contact of the fire alarm controller FC1, and the normally open contact K2-4 of the fire alarm control relay K2 is connected in parallel across the self-holding contact K6-1; the lamp group circuit comprises the first contact K7-1 of the fire alarm bypass control relay K7, the first contact K6-2 of the fire alarm alarm relay, and a plurality of parallel-connected alarm lamps LN1#-LN# arranged in sequence; the buzzer group circuit comprises the second contact K7-2 of the fire alarm bypass control relay K7, the second contact K6-3 of the fire alarm alarm relay, and a plurality of parallel-connected buzzers HN1-HN# arranged in sequence; the fire alarm bypass control circuit comprises the fire alarm bypass switch button S3 and the fire alarm bypass control relay K7.

[0092] When a fire occurs, the internal normally closed contact of the fire alarm controller FC1 is disconnected, the self-holding contact K6-1 of the centralized fire alarm relay K6 is de-energized and disconnected, the first contact K6-1 and the second contact K6-2 are closed, the first contact K7-1 of the fire alarm bypass control relay K7 and the second contact K7-2 of the fire alarm bypass control relay K7 are normally closed contacts, the alarm lamp is lit, and the buzzer emits a sound, prompting relevant personnel that a fire has occurred, so as to facilitate the passengers and the driver and crew to take corresponding measures.

[0093] If it is judged that it is a false alarm of the fire alarm system, the alarm lamp can be manually turned off and the buzzer can no longer emit a sound. Specifically, when a false alarm of a fire occurs, the fire alarm bypass switch button S3 is manually controlled to be closed, the fire alarm bypass control relay K7 is energized, the first contact K7-1 and the second contact K7-2 of the fire alarm bypass control relay are switched from the closed state to the disconnected state, the lamp group circuit and the buzzer group circuit are disconnected, the alarm lamp is not lit, and the buzzer does not emit a sound.

[0094] Based on the rail vehicle fire alarm control circuit provided in the above embodiments, the application further provides a safety loop system, as shown in Fig. 4, which comprises:

[0095] The rail vehicle fire alarm control circuit of any one of the above embodiments is located in a car;

[0096] The first switch is located in the car and is connected in series with the corresponding rail vehicle fire alarm control circuit, and the first switches of all cars are connected in series, and the first switch is used to turn on and off the train safety loop;

[0097] The whole train fire alarm control relay is located in the one-end car and the two-end car, respectively, and is used to control the train braking when the train safety loop is de-energized;

[0098] When a fire occurs in one of the cars, the first switch of the corresponding car is disconnected, the train safety loop is disconnected, and the whole train fire alarm control relay is de-energized to control the train braking.

[0099] Any car is provided with a rail vehicle fire alarm control circuit and a first switch, when any car finds a fire, the first switch of the corresponding car is turned off, the train safety loop is disconnected, the whole train fire alarm control relay of the one-end car and the two-end car loses power, and the train is controlled to brake.

[0100] The first switch can be a contact of a relay, or be configured as a switch, a button or the like according to needs. Preferably, the first switch is a third contact of a fire alarm relay of the rail vehicle fire alarm control circuit; when there is no fire in the train, the fire alarm relay K6 of all cars is powered, and the contact K6-4 is in a closed state; when any car has a fire, the fire alarm relay K6 of the corresponding car loses power, the contact K6-4 of the corresponding car is disconnected, the loop is disconnected, the whole train fire alarm control relay of the one-end car and the two-end car loses power, and the train is controlled to brake; thus the safety of the train is improved.

[0101] In another embodiment, the safety loop system further comprises a second switch in the one-end car and the two-end car respectively, a first end of the second switch is connected with a positive pole of a direct current power supply, a second end of the second switch is connected with a first end of the whole train fire alarm control relay, a second end of the whole train fire alarm control relay is connected with a negative pole of the direct current power supply; the rail vehicle fire alarm control circuit is connected in series with the first end of the whole train fire alarm control relay, and the second switch is used to disconnect when the current car is as an occupied end.

[0102] When the one-end car is as a head car and is occupied, the second switch of the one-end car is disconnected, and the second switch of the two-end car is connected, the current can only pass through the first switch of each car from the one-end car, and then pass through the second switch of the two-end car, so that the whole train fire alarm control relay of the one-end car and the two-end car is powered, indicating that the whole train is in a fire-free state, and the train will not take corresponding braking measures.

[0103] Optionally, the second switch is specifically an auxiliary contact of an occupied relay, and the second switch of the one-end car and the second switch of the two-end car are self-locked with each other, when one of the second switches is disconnected, the other second switch is connected.

[0104] Further, in order to improve the safety of the train, the safety loop system further comprises a fire alarm loop bypass switch arranged in at least one of the plurality of cars.

[0105] The fire alarm loop bypass switch has a bypass position, when the train safety loop is conducted, the bypass position of the fire alarm loop bypass switch is in a disconnected state.

[0106] When the train safety loop is disconnected, the bypass position of the fire alarm loop bypass switch of one of the cars is switched to the closed state, and the fire alarm loop bypass switch of the current car conducts the positive pole of the DC power supply of the train safety loop, the whole train fire alarm control relay and the negative pole of the DC power supply, forming a local safety loop.

[0107] As shown in Figure 4, it is a specific circuit diagram of the safety loop system. The second switch K9-1 and the whole train fire alarm control relay K8 are arranged in the one-end car and the two-end car respectively. The input end of the second switch K9-1 is connected with the positive pole of the DC power supply, the output end of the second switch K9-1 is connected with the contact coil A1 end of the whole train fire alarm control relay K8, the contact coil A2 end of the whole train fire alarm control relay K8 is connected with the negative pole of the DC power supply, the input end of the first switch K6-4 is connected with the positive pole of the DC power supply, and the output end of the first switch K6-4 is connected with the input end of the whole train fire alarm control relay in series. The rail vehicle fire alarm control circuit, the first switch K6-4 and the fire alarm loop bypass switch S4 are arranged in each car respectively.

[0108] The specific working process of the safety loop system includes: taking the one-end car as an example, when there is no fire in each car, the fire alarm relay K6 of all cars is powered, the contact K6-4 is in the closed state, the train safety loop is conducted, and the fire alarm loop bypass switch S4 is in the bypass position at this time. The whole train fire alarm control relay K8 of the one-end car and the two-end car is powered, and the train is in a non-braking state. When there is a fire in any car, the internal normally closed contact of the fire alarm controller FC1 of the car is opened, the self-locking contact K6-1 of the fire alarm relay is de-energized, the first switch K6-4 is de-energized and opened, the train safety loop is disconnected, the whole train fire alarm control relay K8 of the one-end car and the two-end car is de-energized, and the train takes braking measures.

[0109] In special cases, the train needs to be forcibly started after human judgment. The fire alarm loop fault switch S4 is operated so that the current no longer passes through the fire alarm loop circuit of each car and directly passes through the fire alarm loop fault switch S4, so that the whole train fire alarm control relay K8 is powered and the braking measures are forcibly cancelled.

[0110] The above safety loop system can timely know the fault condition when the rail vehicle fire alarm control circuit appears special condition, and inhibit the system start, thereby reducing the influence on other subsystems related to the fire alarm signal.
