Definitions

• the invention relates to a method for automatically controlling the movement of a vehicle door and a corresponding stopping point door of a traffic system according to the preamble of claim 1. It also relates to a device for carrying out the method.
• Traffic system is understood here to mean in particular a local traffic system, e.g. an S-Bru, U-Bru or H-Bru system (people-mover).
• both the vehicle and a platform at a stop are secured by means of doors.
• a change of passengers is therefore only possible if the vehicle is positioned in such a way that the vehicle door and the corresponding stopping point door are congruent.
• the doors should open and close as synchronously as possible.
• a computer-controlled transmission device is used to coordinate the door movements, which is based on the principle of wireless radio transmission.
• the line used for this outside the vehicle shaped transmission device (LZB) is common to all vehicle doors and all station doors of a railway line.
• the coordination with respect to corresponding doors takes place serially. Because of the long transmission paths caused thereby by several computer levels of the transmission device, the computing power of the computers involved is bundled. In addition, the communication time is undesirably limited, so that the coordination of individual door movements is extremely complicated.
• the invention is therefore based on the object of specifying a particularly simple and reliably functional method for automatically controlling corresponding doors of a traffic system and a device which is particularly suitable for carrying it out.
• each control signal that triggers a movement or defines a state is transmitted directly between the doors.
• communication between corresponding doors does not take place - as before - via a separate, linear line common to all doors
• Each of the corresponding doors can become active and stimulate opening or closing.
• a corresponding telegram traffic (handshake procedure) is set up directly and in the shortest way between the corresponding door, which guarantees a coordinated movement.
• a movement of each of the doors is only released when the activation signal has been acknowledged by the control system of the requested door.
• the telegram traffic thus ensures that the doors only move when both doors are neither disturbed nor locked for operational reasons and are therefore allowed to move
• the two corresponding doors preferably monitor one another.
• a status signal confirming the corresponding position is expediently transmitted in the form of a life telegram between the corresponding doors. If there is no receipt for such a life diagram over a determinable time range, at least one of the two corresponding doors is closed
• the vehicle doors and the stop doors of the traffic system each advantageously have an independent local door control, which independently controls or regulates all the processes required for the door movements.
• These higher-level control systems in the form of control computers for all vehicle doors on the one hand and for all stop doors on the other hand then only give commands and are expediently used to control a coordinated movement of the vehicle door and the corresponding stop door
• a signal is expediently carried out via an optical transmission channel directly and by the shortest route between the corresponding doors.
• the optical scattering of the transmission channel ie the lighting angle or the scattering range, can be used in accordance with an achievable or necessary positioning accuracy for the detection of respectively corresponding doors.
• a transmission element is expediently assigned to each vehicle door and each stop door, which is connected to the first and to the second control system.
• Each transmission element in turn has a transmission sensor which is arranged within the scattering region which defines the opposite position of the corresponding door. Transmission sensors lying outside the scattering area therefore no longer belong to the corresponding doors. The latter accordingly do not require any connection with one another. Thus, only such corresponding doors can coordinate their movements with each other.
• the entire transmission system is expediently designed for the transmission of signals in the infrared range.
• the control systems and the transmission system with the respective transmission elements of the doors are advantageously of modular construction.
• the modularization therefore enables the formation of standard components, which is a particular advantage.
• FIG. 1 An exemplary embodiment of the invention is described below with reference to a drawing.
• the figure schematically shows components of a traffic system with an automatic control for coordinating corresponding vehicle and stopping point doors.
• the traffic system 1 is, for example, a local traffic system with driverless operation of one in the position shown Vehicle 3 standing at a stop 2.
• Vehicle 3 is guided on a limestone ladder 4. It has vehicle doors 5, 6 and 7, 8 on both sides. In this position of the vehicle 3, only the vehicle doors 7 and 8 corresponding stop doors 9 and 10 are directly and directly opposite other stop doors 11 and 12 are only shown for the sake of completeness.
• Each vehicle door 5 to 7 is assigned its own transmission element and its own door control, only the transmission elements 13, 14 and the door controls 13a and 14a of the vehicle doors 7 and 8 being shown.
• the transmission elements 13 and 14 are connected via the door controls 13a, 14a to a first control system 15 in the form of a control computer common to all vehicle doors 5 to 8.
• the transmission elements 13, 14 and the door controls 13a and 14a each, or together, form a modular component , which can also be assigned to the first control system 15 of the vehicle 3. This is advantageously designed as a standard component that can be used for any application of traffic systems in which a simultaneous movement of vehicle doors 5 to 8 and stop doors 9 to 12 is required or desired
• each stop door 9 to 12 is assigned its own transmission element 16, 17, 18, 19 and its own door control 16a, 17a, 18a JDZW 19a.
• the transmission elements 16 to 19 are connected to all stop doors 9 to 12 via the door controls 16a to 19a common second control system 20, likewise in the form of a control computer, connected.
• the transmission elements 16 to 19 and the door controls Ibd to 19a and, if appropriate, the second control system 20 of the stop 2 likewise form a modular component
• the transmission elements 13 and 14 of the vehicle doors 7 and 8 each have a transmission sensor 21 and 22 respectively.
• the transmission elements 16 to 19 of the station doors 9 to 12 each have a transmission sensor 23 to 26 in this position of the vehicle 3 relative to the stop 2, the transmission elements 13 and 16 of the corresponding doors 7 and 9 form a transmission system.
• the door controls 13a, 14a and 16a to 19a control and regulate all the processes necessary or required for the movement of the respective door 5 to 8 or 9 to 12. Only status messages are sent to the control systems 15 and 20, and from only receive commands relating to the entire system there. Because of the force and displacement sensors required and the control, it is therefore particularly advantageous to assign each door 5 to 12 its own local door control 13a, 14a, 16a to 19a.
• the signal transmission for a coordinated movement of the corresponding doors 7 and 9 as well as 8 and 10 takes place directly and by the shortest route between the transmission elements 13 and 16 as well as 14 and 17 via an optical transmission channel. This is indicated by the arrows 27 and 28, respectively
• the necessary processes are coordinated by the respective control system 15, 20 and independently controlled and regulated by the respective door controls 13a, 16a and 14a, 17a that only those doors 7, 9 and 8, 10 may coordinate their movements with each other, which - apart from a certain positioning accuracy and without movement - are directly opposite each other
• corresponding doors 7 and 9 Both corresponding doors 7 and 9 can become active and stimulate opening or closing. Telegram traffic takes place between the doors 7 and 9 via the transmission elements 13 and 16 and via the door controls 13a and 16a connected to them, which is maintained via the transmission channel 27 in the form of signals. The telegram traffic ensures that movements only take place when both doors 7 and 9 are neither locked nor disturbed and are therefore allowed to move.
• the information transmission between the doors 7 and 9 takes place wirelessly and, because of the short distance and the direct and unimpaired optical connection, preferably in the infrared range, for which the transmission system is therefore to be designed.
• All movement commands or commands are coordinated by the control systems 15 and 20 and carried out by the transmission systems 13 and 16 as soon as one of the doors 7, 9 receives a corresponding command from its control system 15, 20 via a data line 29 or 30 , an activation signal is transmitted between the corresponding transmission systems 13 and 16, and telegram traffic is set up.
• a request telegram sent by the requesting door 7, 9 via the optical transmission channel 27 is acknowledged by the monitoring system 16, 13 of the requested door 9, 7, the acknowledgment in turn being monitored by the requesting door 7, 9.
• stop station door 9 be the corresponding door if vehicle 3 is positioned accordingly at stop 2. If the door requested is not a corresponding door 9, or is the control or monitoring of the door Corresponding door 9 disturbed, no acknowledgment telegram is sent. As a result, there is no door movement. If the corresponding door 9 cannot or must not move, then a negative acknowledgment takes place, and likewise there is no door movement positive acknowledgment if the corresponding door 9 can move, is allowed to move and has already initiated the movement.
• the two corresponding doors 7 and 9 continuously monitor status signals in the form of so-called life telegrams which confirm this position. If there is no receipt for such a life telegram, the corresponding door 7, 9 is closed first, and then or simultaneously the other door 9, 7 is closed.
