Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and a system for processing a projected turnout chain to achieve one or more turnouts in rail-bound traffic.
  • decentralized interlocking structures As digitization moves into the control and / or monitoring of rail-bound traffic, there will be an increasing reduction in decentralized interlocking structures.
  • the decentralized interlocking structures are increasingly being transferred to central interlocking structures that cover large areas.
  • central interlocking structures For the network of the Swiss Federal Railways, a reduction in this regard to two or three central signal boxes could be provided, which should then guarantee 24-hour operation. Since these changes will also take place over a period of many years to protect the investments in the already installed base, the requirements for the decentralized interlocking structures increase massively, especially with regard to response times and latency times, especially since at the same time there is usually an increase in efficiency is to be achieved in the existing network.
  • Siemens Mobility AG has developed interlocking structures under the name Sinet®, in which the data exchange between the so-called element controllers and LEUs (lineside electronic units), which are arranged on the track to control points , Signals, balises, axle counters and the like are used, and a central signal box is provided via a redundantly mapped data line.
  • Communication units to which the element controller are connected, integrated into the data line in ring structures.
  • the electrical supply and the monitoring of currents from the interlocking are delegated to the local element controllers, which are connected to an equally redundant power bus and thus obtain their power locally with the short cable routes associated therewith.
  • the coupling unit required for this is referred to as the network node unit SND, which is also coupled to the communication unit SCU and exchanges data with it bidirectionally, for example about the strength of the flowing current and function codes and the like.
  • These power supply structures are currently being sold by Siemens Mobility AG under the name Sigrid®.
  • Sinet® and Sigrid® are for example in the European patent EP 2 301 202 B1 described.
  • the requirements for the decentralized turnout control parts will also be different than with the central interlocking architecture that is prevalent today (central in the sense of the point motor power consumption monitored on the interlocking card and that from the interlocking provided supply with the corresponding, in some cases very long, power supply cables).
  • An important topic here is the management of a so-called switch chain, which ensures that several switches never run together within a section, but rather one after the other.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object of specifying a method and a system for processing a projected turnout chain to achieve one or more turnouts in rail-bound traffic that meet the aforementioned requirements.
  • the simultaneous starting of several points can be reliably prevented by the specific approval of the point chain in only a single communication unit of the plurality of communication units arranged in the data line ring, whereby the power bus supplying the point motors can be designed for a significantly lower peak load. Furthermore, there is the advantage that the delay time until the processing of all circulation commands is essentially only due to the times until the predefinable inrush current is undershot summed up at the individual turnouts. Additional communication times to the interlocking that further delay the processing do not occur here because of the local communication only in the data line ring.
  • the delay is a maximum of ten times the time required for the starting current to drop below a predeterminable threshold. With the assumption of a time span of 200 ms per turnout, there would be a maximum delay of 2s for the ten turnouts until the last circulation command would also be processed. Such a short period of time can be tolerated without any problems even with a dense network occupancy.
  • the communication units can carry out a functional test of their communication units arranged adjacent in the data ring at regular intervals, and in the event of failure of a communication unit currently blocking the switch chain the turnout chain is released again and blocked by the next communication unit configured in the turnout chain.
  • each communication unit In analogy to the failure of a communication unit that is currently blocking the switch chain, for the failure of the network node unit effecting the electrical supply of the switch drive, provision can be made for each communication unit to be associated with a network node unit for the electrical supply of the respective communication unit and the element controller connected to it, whereby upon detection of the failure of the network node unit, a switch chain blocked by the communication unit assigned to it is released.
  • FIG. 1 shows a schematic representation of a system 2 for controlling and monitoring rail-bound traffic on a track section 4.
  • this track section there are four switches W1 to W4 and a level crossing BUe.
  • a control system 6 is provided to control the course of the train, in which a plurality of dispatcher workstations are usually provided.
  • the dispatchers monitor the scheduled setting of routes and also intervene manually in the control of the train route if there is a deviation from the timetable.
  • the request for setting a route is transmitted from the control system 6 to an interlocking 8, which nowadays generally includes an interlocking computer 10 as well as further data resources and control cabinet infrastructures 12.
  • Both the control system 6 and the interlocking 8 couple for data exchange by means of routers / switches 14 to a redundant data backbone 16a, 16b (e.g. OTN, SDH, UMUX or similar). Almost any distance can be bridged with the data backbone 16a, 16b.
  • Each switch W1 to W4 can include one or more switch motors, each of which is controlled by an element controller EC.
  • These element controllers EC are logically arranged within a combined communication and network node unit.
  • the communication unit SCU1 to SCU5 establishes the connection to a data ring line 20 via the element controllers, which are designed at SIL4 level, with the Interlocking 8 can exchange data.
  • the network node units SND1 to SND5 couple to a power bus 22, which is also designed as a ring line, and supply the element controller EC with the electrical power required to operate the point motors.
  • the energy bus 22 itself is supplied with the required electrical power at feed points ES1, ES2 remote from the central interlocking 8.
  • feed points ES1, ES2 can, for example, also be arranged in fixed structural structures, such as transformer houses TH1, TH2, for example.
  • the communication of the network node units SND1 to SND5 with the associated communication units and / or with the interlocking 8 is also handled via the communication units SCU1 to SCU5.
  • a switch chain is initially configured for the switches W1 to W4 administered in this data ring line 18, which is stored in each communication unit SCU1 to SCU5 and here, for example, regulates the sequence in which the individual switches W1 to W4 should circulate.
  • each communication unit SCU1 to SCU5 is enabled to temporarily block this switch chain for all other communication units SCU1 to SCU5 integrated in the data ring line 18.
  • a staggered processing of these circulation commands is ensured in that a first communication unit, here e.g. the SCU1, of the communication units SCU1 to SCU5 is configured in such a way that, after receiving a switch changeover command, it switches the projected switch chain blocks for the other communication units arranged in this data ring line 18, here now the SCU2 to SCU5, and processes the switch circulation commands received for the element controller EC 1i connected to this first communication unit SCU1.
  • the network node unit SND1 detects the inrush current consumed by the point motor or motors and reports to the communication unit SCU1 when the inrush current has again fallen below a predeterminable limit value. In response to this reported undershooting of the limit value for the inrush current, the configuration of the communication units SCU1 to SCU5 then provides that the block on the switch chain is released and the switch chain is released to the second communication unit configured in the switch chain, here for example SCU2, is made. At this point it should also be mentioned again that it is irrelevant for the processing of all turnout circulation commands which of the communication units takes possession of the turnout chain first and blocks it temporarily for all others.
  • the second communication unit SCU2 configured in the switch chain takes possession of the switch chain for itself and blocks it for the other communication units SCU1, SCU3 to SCU5.
  • the switch W2 can revolve, whereby after falling below the threshold value for the inrush current, the lock of the turnout chain is canceled and the next communication unit configured in the turnout chain, here for example SCU4, is taken into possession.
  • This procedure can now be repeated for a further communication unit, in this case only SCU5, until the last turnout circulation command has also been processed according to the configured turnout chain for the turnouts W1 to W4 administered in this data ring line 18.
  • the switch chain is not taken possession of by the communication unit SCU3, because accordingly no switch circulation command has been issued for the communication unit SCU3 provided only for the level crossing BUe. It should also be noted that it is irrelevant at which communication unit SCU1 to SCU5 the first turnout circulation command arrives, since the sequence of the communication units blocking the turnout chain results from the turnout chain. If, for example, in this exemplary embodiment the communication unit SCU4 for the switch W3 were to block the switch chain first, the switch chain would then be processed according to the project planning in the further sequence SCU5 for switch W4, SCU1 for switch W1 and SCU2 for switch W2.
  • the communication units SCU1 to SCU5 can now each be configured in such a way that a function test of theirs in the data loop 18 is carried out at regular intervals arranged communication units can be executed.
  • the communication units can, for example, send short alive queries to their respective neighbors. If there is no response, there is probably a fault in the non-responding communication unit.
  • the switch chain is then immediately released again, so that the switch chain can be taken possession of by the next communication unit configured in the switch chain and blocked again for the other communication units arranged in the data ring line.
  • each communication unit SCU is associated with a network node unit SND for the electrical supply of the respective communication unit SCU and the element controller EC connected to it, the communication unit SCU also sending an alive request at regular intervals their associated network node unit SND sends. If there is no response, this is interpreted as a failure of the network node unit SND.
  • the switch chain blocked by the assigned communication unit SCU is immediately released and can thus be taken into possession by the next communication unit configured in the switch chain.
