DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] To make the purpose, technical solution, and advantages of the present application clearer, the following provides a clear and complete description of the technical solution in the present application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort fall within the scope of protection in the present application.
[0021] As shown in FIG.s 1 to 3, embodiments of the present application provide an intelligent anti-creeping system for a rail train. The intelligent anti-creeping system for the rail train includes a detection module 2, an intelligent anti-creeper 3, and a control module 1 connected communicatively to the detection module 2 and the intelligent anti-creeper 3, respectively.
[0022] The detection module 2 is used for detecting an obstacle in real time, and the detection module 2 may be installed on a locomotive of the rail train to detect the obstacle in front of the rail train; and the detection module 2 may be a signal acquisition sensor or a high-definition camera or other image acquisition devices.
[0023] The intelligent anti-creeper 3 includes an anti-creeper body 31, and an energy-absorbing portion 32 connected to the anti-creeper body 31 and may stretch relative to the anti-creeper body 31. The anti-creeper body 31 is also an energy absorption module, and the energy-absorbing portion 32 is installed in the anti-creeper body 31. The energy-absorbing portion 32 may stretch out of the anti-creeper body 31 along an axial direction of the anti-creeper body 31, thereby prolonging a total length of an energy absorption structure, increasing an energy-absorbing stroke, and improving passive safety performance.
[0024] It should be noted that under normal conditions, the energy-absorbing portion 32 is at least partially hidden within the anti-creeper body 31, which may neither affect an appearance of the rail train and nor change structure characteristics of the rail train locomotive.
[0025] The control module 1 is connected communicatively to the detection module 2 and the intelligent anti-creeper 3, respectively. The control module 1 may be a micro-controller used to control the intelligent anti-creeper 3 to act correspondingly based on detection of the obstacle by the detection module 2.
[0026] "To control the intelligent anti-creeper 3 to act correspondingly" may be understood as, when the control module 1 determines that collision energy between an obstacle rail train and a host rail train exceeds absorbing energy of the anti-creeper body 31, the control module 1 triggers the energy-absorbing portion 32 to stretch out of the anti-creeper body 31, to improve energy-absorbing capacity of the intelligent anti-creeper 3, and actively improve the energy-absorbing performance, thereby enhancing a safe collision speed of the rail train, protecting the personal safety of drivers and passengers, and ensuring the integrity of a vehicle body structure. When the control module 1 determines that the collision energy between the obstacle rail train and the host rail train is within the energy absorption range of the anti-creeper body 31, it is not necessary to send an ejection signal to the intelligent anti-creeper 3. Thus, the intelligent anti-creeper 3 does not eject.
[0027] In an embodiment, the anti-creeper body 31 is an energy-absorbing tube structure, of which a first end is an installation end and a second end is an opening end.
The energy-absorbing portion 32 is the energy-absorbing tube structure penetrating inside the anti-creeper body 31, and the anti-creeper body 31 and the energy-absorbing portion 32 are provided coaxially. The anti-creeper body 31 is installed on a vehicle body through the installation end, and the anti-creeper body 31 is not movable. The energy-absorbing portion 32 may stretch to a maximum length relative to the opening end of the anti-creeper body 31.
The energy-absorbing portion 32 is the energy-absorbing tube structure penetrating inside the anti-creeper body 31, and the anti-creeper body 31 and the energy-absorbing portion 32 are provided coaxially. The anti-creeper body 31 is installed on a vehicle body through the installation end, and the anti-creeper body 31 is not movable. The energy-absorbing portion 32 may stretch to a maximum length relative to the opening end of the anti-creeper body 31.
[0028] To keep the energy-absorbing portion in a fixed position after stretching, according to an embodiment of the present application, as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the intelligent anti-creeper 3 further includes a stopper 33.
[0029] The energy-absorbing portion 32 has a first position and a second position relative to the anti-creeper body 31. In the first position, the energy-absorbing portion 32 is at least partially located inside the anti-creeper body 31, i.e., the first position is a position where the energy-absorbing portion 32 is not stretched. In the second position, the energy-absorbing portion 32 stretches out of the anti-creeper body 31 and is locked in the second position through the stopper 33, i.e., the second position is a position where the energy-absorbing portion 32 stretches. By using the stopper 33, positions of the energy-absorbing portion 32 relative to the anti-creeper body 31 may be fixed after the energy-absorbing portion 32 stretches, which increases the energy-absorbing stroke of the intelligent anti-creeper 3. The stopper 33 may be a stop block, and the stop block is installed on the anti-creeper body 31.
There may be multiple stop blocks, such as two in a group, located on opposite sides of a diameter direction of the anti-creeper body 31. The stop blocks may be provided on a side wall of the anti-creeper body 31 close to the opening end, with a groove on the side wall of the opening end. An end of the energy-absorbing portion 32 is a front end, and the other end of the energy-absorbing portion 32 is a rear end. The side wall close to the rear end of the energy-absorbing portion 32 is provided with stop grooves corresponding to stop blocks one by one. An end of the stop block is installed on the anti-creeper body 31 through an elastic member, and the other end of the stop block is tilted downward and pressed on the side wall of the energy-absorbing portion 32. When the energy-absorbing portion 32 stretches to a maximum length, the stop block is directly aligned with the stop groove, and the stop block is clamped in the stop groove to stop the energy-absorbing portion 32. That is, the energy-absorbing portion 32 is limited to keep the energy-absorbing portion 32 in the second position.

That is, the energy-absorbing portion 32 is limited to keep the energy-absorbing portion 32 in the second position.
[0030] According to an embodiment of the present application, a triggering mechanism is provided inside the intelligent anti-creeper 3, and the triggering mechanism is provided at a rear end of the anti-creeper body 31 close to the energy-absorbing portion 32.
The triggering mechanism is suitable for triggering the energy-absorbing portion 32 to eject out of the anti-creeper body 31. The energy-absorbing portion 32 is powered by the triggering mechanism, and the energy-absorbing portion 32 may be pushed out when necessary. The triggering mechanism may be a quick ejection device, as well as a high-pressure air cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, or a gas cylinder.
The triggering mechanism is suitable for triggering the energy-absorbing portion 32 to eject out of the anti-creeper body 31. The energy-absorbing portion 32 is powered by the triggering mechanism, and the energy-absorbing portion 32 may be pushed out when necessary. The triggering mechanism may be a quick ejection device, as well as a high-pressure air cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, or a gas cylinder.
[0031] According to an embodiment of the present application, the triggering mechanism is connected communicatively to the control module 1. Taking the triggering mechanism being the quick ejection device as an example, the quick ejection device may store an appropriate amount of energy-accumulating matter inside. The control module 1 sends an electrical signal to the quick ejection device to trigger the release of energy from the energy-accumulating matter, and the generated impact force pushes the energy-absorbing portion 32 to eject.
[0032] The quick ejection device includes a storage housing and energy-accumulating matter provided inside the storage housing. The storage housing is fixedly installed on a rear end cover inside the anti-creeper body 31, a shape of the storage housing may be a box shape, a bowl shape, etc., and the specific shape is not limited thereto. The storage housing is small in volume, occupies little space, and does not occupy installation space of the energy-absorbing portion 32. The storage housing may be bonded or connected through a fastener, etc., to the rear end cover inside the anti-creeper body 31. The specific installation mode is not limited, as long as the storage housing may be installed on the rear end cover inside the anti-creeper body 31. In the first position, the rear end of the energy-absorbing portion 32 is close to or in contact with the storage housing, so that the generated thrust may be applied to the energy-absorbing portion 32 as much as possible after the energy-accumulating matter inside the storage housing is triggered, thereby improving an energy utilization efficiency.
[0033] The specific amount of energy-accumulating matter placed inside the storage housing depends on the required thrust. The larger the required thrust, the more energy-accumulating matter is placed. The energy-accumulating matter may be an explosive that may release energy under an action of an electric spark.
[0034] The present embodiment provides thrust through the quick ejection device, which is smaller in volume and lighter in weight than structures such as screws and hydraulic devices, and may provide sufficient thrust when occupying smaller space.
[0035] According to an embodiment of the present application, the system further includes with an emergency braking module 4, and the emergency braking module 4 is connected communicatively to the control module 1. By triggering the emergency braking module 4, an emergency signal is sent to the control module 1, and the control module 1 controls the energy-absorbing portion 32 to eject out of the anti-creeper body 31. The emergency braking module 4 is used in emergency of malfunction of the detection module 2, to increase the safety of the rail train operation and reduce losses during collisions.
[0036] According to an embodiment of the present application, to facilitate in operating the emergency braking module 4, the emergency braking module 4 is located in a driver's cab of the rail train, and the driver's cab of the rail train is located at a head of the rail train. The driver's cab has a wide field of view, and the driver may clearly determine whether there is a rail train running in opposite directions in front of the rail train.
Therefore, the emergency braking module 4 is provided in the driver's cab and may be operated by the driver.
Therefore, the emergency braking module 4 is provided in the driver's cab and may be operated by the driver.
[0037] According to an embodiment of the present application, the emergency braking module 4 is an emergency braking button, and the emergency braking button is provided on a console in the driver's cab for easy operation by the driver.
[0038] As shown in FIG. 4, the present embodiment provides a control method of an intelligent anti-creeping system for a rail train, the method includes the following steps:
S10, receiving, by the control module 1, obstacle data detected by the detection module 2, and identifying a type of an obstacle based on an algorithm; the specific algorithm is not limited in the present embodiment, and any algorithm that may identify the type of obstacle in prior art is acceptable;
S20, determining, in case of identifying that the type of the obstacle is a rail train, a relative speed of two rail trains;

If the collision energy of the two rail trains is within an energy absorption range of the intelligent anti-creeper 3 in the retracted state, the control module 1 does not need to send the instruction to the intelligent anti-creeper 3, and the intelligent anti-creeper 3 remains in the retracted state. By automatically calculating the relative speed and the amount of energy to be dissipated through the control module 1, the method actively determines whether an ejection action is needed to improve the energy-absorbing capacity of the intelligent anti-creeper 3.

[0044] When the detector detects the obstacle in front of the host rail train, identifying the types of the obstacle in front by an algorithm; if the obstacle is a rail train operating on a same track, a relative speed of the two rail trains is further determined.
[0045] (3) Determining the collision energy and whether the intelligent anti-creeper 3 needs to be ejected.
[0046] The control module 1 calculates the collision energy of the two trains based on masses of the rail trains and the relative speed; if the retracted intelligent anti-creeper 3 cannot dissipate the collision energy, the control module 1 sends an instruction to the intelligent anti-creeper 3 to perform eject operation.
[0047] (4) The anti-creeper acts correspondingly.
[0048] After receiving an ejection instruction, a quick ejection device inside the intelligent anti-creeper 3 detonates. Under a strong impact generated by the explosion, the energy-absorbing portion 32 ejects out of the anti-creeper body 31 and moves to a corresponding position, and the stop block tilts inward under an action of a spring and limits the energy-absorbing portion 32, thereby increasing a deformation stroke of the intelligent anti-creeper 3 and increasing the absorbing energy.
[0049] The embodiment of the present application further provides a rail train, provided with the above-mentioned rail train intelligent anti-creeping system, and the intelligent anti-creeper 3 is installed below a locomotive of the rail train. The limitations of the installation and deformation space of the energy absorption device at the front end of the vehicle body are broken and the energy-absorbing performance of the vehicle is significantly improved without changing the structural characteristics, coupling requirements, and curve passing capacity requirements of the rail train.
[0050] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the solution of the present application, not to limit it. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, it should be understood by those of skill in the art that changes to solutions recited in the aforementioned embodiments or equivalent replacement of some feature may be made and these modifications or replacements do not depart the solutions essentially from the scope of the present application.
