Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a signaling unit.
  • Such signaling units are used especially in rail and road traffic as light signals.
  • a conversion to low-maintenance light sources is therefore very expensive and causes high costs and would have to be made during the conversions in the signal boxes overnight.
  • a safety inspection and an official operating license are generally required. The effort is very large. Elaborate conversions allow today very short rest intervals in the transport networks of only a few hours, usually after midnight. Economic criteria speak against it.
  • a device When using double-filament lamps in a signal system designed for this purpose, a device switches automatically to the secondary eddy by breaking the main filament. In this case, however, due to the position of the auxiliary coil outside the focal point only a reduced light intensity in the main axis of the signal is achieved and the emission characteristic also changes according to the focal deviation. Electrically speaking, based on the monitoring circuit, however, there are no changes in the circuit parameters due to the helical switching, with the exception of the transient switching of transient artifacts. It should be emphasized here that filament lamps for signaling purposes (and that is the majority of many tracks) can not be replaced by double filament lamps. The reason for this are the different operating data of the incandescent lamps and thus the functional characteristics of the control units installed for single-filament lamps, which are not designed for controlling the two lamp filaments.
  • a LED replacement light source in the lamp signal circuit parallel to the incandescent filament.
  • This source can be synchronous be controlled simultaneously with the control of the lamp or this replacement light source is on cold redundancy and is switched at the time of helix failure in the circuit and takes over the triggered by the control part current flow in the control circuit, the light output of the signal.
  • Such a light-emission substitute takes over in the event of failure of a single-filament or at most two-filament incandescent lamp an expedient substitution of the light source and thus avoids interruptions of the functionality of the signal and thus during operation. As a result, the timing of the repair of the signal much better planning than usual.
  • the inventive approach assumes that the standard light source has, for example, a nominal power consumption of a typical signal lamp of 20 watts.
  • the substitution light source together with its drive device, has a significantly lower power consumption.
  • the light source monitoring dimensioned in terms of incandescent lamp characteristics in the associated control part is not able to recognize it as being functional on the basis of the monitored electrical parameters in accordance with the lower power consumption and thus the smaller current of the LED emitter.
  • the Figures 1 and 2 each schematically show a light signal, in which in addition to the light bulb, an LED unit is provided to replace the bulb in the event of burning their filament.
  • the LED unit is arranged directly behind the light bulb on the main light axis; in FIG. 2 The light of the LED unit is fed via a light guide behind the light bulb in the main light axis.
  • an infrared filter to the light exit of the light guide to at least greatly attenuate a thermal feedback of the light bulb to the LED unit or the light guide.
  • the luminous flux via an exit lens on the signal is given only by the solid angle detected by the exit lens. In other words, this means that a large part of the solid angle is black and thus absorbs the light radiation.
  • Modern LED units with quasi punctiform light sources therefore achieve luminous fluxes of up to 100 lumens and more, which easily reach the luminosity of the incandescent lamp used in the signal at significantly lower power consumption.
  • the current latest generation of LEDs now has a luminous efficacy of up to 100 lumens / watt.
  • the incandescent lamp signals radiate in the required and common in the railway safety technology execution (avoidance of phantom light) only a relatively low luminous flux. This is calculated from the active solid angle (sterradiant) and the transmission of the color filter with a light source with white A 2856 ° K. For the signal color red, the 10 lumens are then emitted to the front. From these points of view, the luminous flux defined above must then be assessed.
  • the whistle of the inventive solution is therefore seen to incorporate in signals with incandescent light source a redundant replacement light source in LED technology.
  • the incandescent lamp is left unchanged in the defective state in the signal housing and is used in a suitable manner as an optical function part in the beam path of the then shining LED light source.
  • the LED light source radiates directly into the main axis of the beam path from the glass bulb of the incandescent lamp directed forwardly against the light exit opening of the signal or uses a collimator for processing the radiation characteristics and / or a light guide for the supply of light to the appropriate point in the major axis.
  • the glass bulb of the incandescent lamp is used as a kind of lens, which throws the light in a suitable manner forward on the front lens. It is thereby achieved at least approximately the same effect as is present through the helix in the focal point of the optics.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 now each show a schematic diagram for a light bulb insert with redundant LED unit; once for a light bulb with only one filament ( Fig. 3 ) and once for a light bulb with a double thread ( Fig. 4 ).
