Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for the directional alignment of a rotatably mounted on a chassis frame axis of a Schienenfahrtechnikes after the track curvature.
  • Narrow curves which are often determined by the course of the road, lead to poor cornering of multi-axle chassis. This is mainly observed in rail vehicles whose wheels are rigidly connected to the chassis frame with respect to their yawing motion.
  • axle or the wheels are steerable mounted in the chassis frame.
  • a steering movement corresponding to the track curvature can take place.
  • Object of the present invention is to provide a method for measuring the track curvature for rail vehicles to calculate using this value, the target value for the steering angle control.
  • the problem is solved by the features of claim 1, u.a. in that the track curvature is calculated from the division of a yaw rate by a translation speed and the wheels are aligned to a desired steering angle calculated by multiplying the track curvature so calculated by half the distance between the two axles of the landing gear.
  • the Figures 1 and 2 show a chassis 10 for a rail vehicle, not shown, with axles 12 and 13, to which wheels 16 are attached.
  • the axle 12 and 13 are mounted in the chassis 10.
  • the chassis 10 and the axles 12 and 13 are rotatably supported by a centrally arranged joint 15.
  • the chassis 10 is shown while passing through a track bend 11 having a radius R at a translational speed v.
  • the radius R or the track curvature ⁇ can be calculated.
  • the track curvature ⁇ corresponds to the reciprocal of the radius R.
  • the division of the yaw rate ⁇ by the translation speed v gives the track curvature ⁇ , corresponding to the in FIG. 1 represented equation.
  • the value of the track curvature ⁇ obtained from this is used to steer the axles 12 and 13, respectively.
  • the relation between the real and calculated track curvature ⁇ can be the FIG. 3 be removed.
  • the yaw rate ⁇ is preferably determined by a gyroscope or gyro sensor (not shown in greater detail), as is known, for example, from navigation technology.
  • the distance between the wheel flanges of the wheels 16 of an axle 12 and 13 is slightly smaller than the distance between the rails 17, can move the position of the axle laterally by a few millimeters in the track channel.
  • power surges that act on the chassis 10 because of the often not exact track guidance lead to yaw.
  • these oscillating movements have a not insignificant influence on the measured values of the gyro sensor.
  • the measured value of the yaw rate ⁇ is smoothed by means of a - not shown - low-pass filter.
  • the effect of the low-pass filter when passing through a track arc is FIG. 5 refer to.
  • the alignment of the axles 12 and 13 takes place with the aid of the track curvature so thus calculated.
  • the track curvature ⁇ serves to determine the desired steering angle ⁇ soll according to which the axles 12 and 13 are corrected.
  • the adjustment of the axes 12 and 13 can be done for example by a servo motor.
  • the sine of the target steering angle ⁇ soll of the - not shown - controller system is calculated by multiplying the track curvature ⁇ with half the distance b between the axes 12 and 13, according to the equation in FIG. 2 ,
  • the target steering angle ⁇ should be 1 + i for the following in the direction of travel undercarriages are calculated by time delays .DELTA.t from the first target steering angle ⁇ soll 1 .
  • the delay .DELTA.t results from the division of the distance a i of the trailing chassis i to the first chassis by the translation speed v.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé servant à mesurer la courbure des rails pour un bogie de véhicules sur rails, ainsi qu'un procédé pour aligner de manière directrice, en fonction de la courbure des rails, un essieu d'un bogie pour rails, fixé de manière rotative sur un châssis de bogie. La courbure des rails est calculée par division d'une vitesse de lacet par une vitesse de translation. Les roues sont alignées selon un angle de braquage prescrit (ηsoll) qui est calculé par multiplication de la courbure des rails (χ) par la moitié de la distance (b) entre les deux essieux (12, 13) du bogie (10).

Claims (4)

  1. Procédé d'orientation dirigée de roues montées en rotation sur un train de roulement d'un véhicule ferroviaire dans une courbure de voie ferrée, caractérisé en ce que les roues sont orientées suivant un angle de direction de consigne (γsoll) calculé en multipliant la courbure de voie ferrée (χ) avec la moitié de la distance (b) entre les deux essieux du train de roulement, la courbure de voie ferrée (χ) étant déterminée en divisant la vitesse de lacet (Ω) du train de roulement par la vitesse de translation (v), la valeur mesurée de la vitesse de lacet (Ω) étant lissée au moyen d'un filtre passe-bas pour éliminer l'influence du mouvement pendulaire en lacet du train de roulement dans le canal de voie.
  2. Procédé selon la revendication 1, caractérisé en ce que la vitesse de lacet (Ω) est définie par un détecteur de vitesse de rotation ou à gyroscope.
  3. Procédé selon la revendication 1 ou 2, caractérisé en ce que, pour diriger plusieurs trains de roulement d'un véhicule ferroviaire, on ne définit que la courbure de voie ferrée (χ) et l'angle de direction de consigne (γsoll 1) pour le premier train de roulement, tandis que les angles de direction de consigne (γsoll 1 + i) pour les trains de roulement suivants dans le sens de marche sont calculés par retardement (Δt) à partir du premier angle de direction de consigne (γsoll 1).
  4. Procédé selon la revendication 3, caractérisé en ce que le retardement résulte de Δt = ai /v, ai étant la distance entre le train de roulement suivant i et le premier train de roulement et v étant la vitesse de translation.
