Definitions

  • This invention relates to an apparatus and method for monitoring wear and deformation of a turnout (also called switch and crossing) of a railway or tramway line.
  • the wear or deformation of a turnout is rather irregular and typically concentrates on particular locations, such as the stock rails, wing rails, check rails, point blades, frog and crossing.
  • Laser measurement systems e.g. measuring distance or a profile of e.g. the rail head or different track component, such as triangulation sensors (one dimension measurement) or light sectioning sensors (a two dimensional extension of the laser triangulation method, thus a two dimensional measurement), offer an accuracy in the range of several micrometers at a bandwidth of 10 kHz or even higher. Their speed is therefore sufficient to measure from moving platforms (e.g. a measuring train), but it is difficult or often impossible to guide the platform with a precision comparable to the measurement accuracy. To compensate this uncertainty of the relative position of the measurement system, from practice there is known to apply an acceleration sensor to establish a virtual reference line for the value measured.
  • a typical example known from prior art practice is the corrugation measurement of the rail head with a spectral accuracy better than 10 mu m from a running train superimposed to a vertical movement of about 10 mm.
  • the vehicle speed is preferably at least 40 or 60 km/h.
  • a rail profile monitoring system e.g. using a laser measurement system, is designed to measure the rail profile e.g. for high speed lines, but also for conventional and metro lines. In all cases top performances and accuracies must be guaranteed, e.g. by use of a CMOS or CCD camera system able to acquire up to 500 frames/sec or even higher rates at high resolution.
  • the camera could e.g. be of profile or area type.
  • Sunlight interference and blooming effects preferably need be removed, e.g. by one or more protection systems (camera technology, pulsed laser and camera acquisition synchronized, interferential filters and software filters).
  • the main object of the monitoring system is to give integrated indications to the track maintenance responsible for planning the interventions for the short and long term.
  • the system preferably is able to detect and quantify all the key WEAR PARAMETERS describing the qualitative status of the infrastructure (vertical wear, transversal wear, multi-point wear, gauge).
  • Laser light is an example of an optically coherent radiation beam.
  • the camera is an example of a light receiving unit for monitoring the focusing projection of the radiation beam on the object of interest and converts the radiation, reflected by the object, received on a measurement surface in the receiving unit into electrical signals which are entered into the connected computer.
  • a lens e.g. Fresnel lens, is located between the object ad the camera for focusing the radiation from the object on the measurement surface of the camera.
  • An object of the invention is one or more of the following: a further improvement in an attempt to sufficiently eliminate the interference of the horizontal and/or vertical oscillating movement (caused by i.a. the fact that the railway track is not perfectly straight, however in stead undulates) of the measuring train, carrying the measuring system, with the measurement results; to measure the wear or deformation of the turnout; to measure parameters of a component, such as rail, without any mechanical contact with the component and without the need to use mechanical centring devices; to acquire information relating to the actual profile of the component, its degree of wear and its vertical and transverse deformation; to be able to accurately locate the location of the measurements, particularly relative to a reference point; to effect the measurements while insensitive to oscillation and deformation of the vehicle on which the apparatus is mounted; to obtain desired results from measurements in real time; to be able to conduct the measurements at a high velocity of at least 10 or 20 km/hr of the measuring train.
  • This object is obtained by the invention such that the inaccuracy of a rail profile measurement is less than 0.1 millimeter.
  • the invention concerns a laser system and/or method designed to provide one or more of the following: emit by its one or more light sources one or more light beams, e.g. at least three or four or five light beams, designed to be projected as spaced or overlapping light points or lines or spots onto an object of interest; at least a number and preferably substantially all of these light beams are emitted such that during advancement of the measuring train these light beams are projected successively onto the same area of the object and/or their light lines successively cover the same area of the object; during train advancement the light beams and/or their light lines move along the object, one behind the other; the light beams are substantially simultaneously projected onto the object; a light line is provided by one or a plurality of separate light sources or light beams; the object of interest is of the railway track, in particular a rail, more preferably a rail part of a railway switch (also called turnout or switch and crossing) e.g.
  • a frog or check rail or point blade preferably simultaneously detect these projections by a sensor or a plurality of separate sensors; the data from these sensors is entered into a computer connected to and common to these sensors; the computer determines from this data a correction factor which is dependent from the horizontal and/or vertical oscillating movement of the measuring train and which correction factor is applied to computer calculations for a geometric feature of interest of the measured track object or an associated track object.
  • the e.g. three or four or five light lines are preferably applied in a pattern including one or more of the following (in the following "light line” also means “light point” or “light spot”): spaced in longitudinal direction of the object, e.g. rail; close spacing between two adjacent light lines at least 5 or 10 millimeter and/or not more than 50 or 80 millimeter, e.g. approximately 30 millimeter or a single sample distance; wide spacing between two adjacent light lines at least 100 or 150 or 200 or 400 millimeter and/or not more than 800 or 900 millimeter, e.g. approximately 600 millimeter; spacing between the two outermost light lines at least 600 or 800 millimeter and/or not more than 1400 or 1500 millimeter, e.g.
  • a light line approximately 1200 millimeter; a light line approximately centrally between two other light lines; two light lines with close spacing, separated from the other light lines by at least the wide spacing; two sets, each of two light lines with close spacing, preferably wherein these two sets are mutually separated by at least the wide spacing; a light line separated from the other light lines by at least the wide spacing; in case of at least five spaced light lines, these are present as two sets (which light lines could be named “reference light lines”) and one individual light line (which could be named "accuracy light line”).
  • a light line could include two or more light lines (e.g. each created by an individual light emitter, e.g. laser) which are exactly or virtually exactly mutually overlapping or precisely registered such that they are detected by the associated sensor as a single line. This is e.g. the case for the accuracy light line.
  • the individual light lines could be spaced longitudinally or differ in frequency to avoid interference, e.g. as disclosed in EP2485010 .
  • the light lines are associated with a sensor, preferably two light lines having the close spacing are associated with a single sensor, such that the sensor (e.g. an area camera) simultaneously detects both light lines, obviously wherein these light lines are projected at the light detecting part (e.g. the light sensitive matrix) of the sensor at different locations such that they are detected separately and can be discriminated by the sensor.
  • the sensor e.g. an area camera
  • the light detecting part e.g. the light sensitive matrix
  • the width of a light line (as measured in longitudinal direction of the rail) is preferably smaller than 20 or 10 or 5 millimeter and/or is substantially constant along its length.
  • the light line has preferably a green or red color.

  • a light line could be associated with two or more sensors (e.g. each being a profile camera), preferably this is the light line for which the wide spacing with all the other light lines applies.
  • this accuracy light line is provided by at least two light emitters, e.g. lasers.
  • the accuracy light line is preferably associated with a group of two or three or four cameras such that in an embodiment the accuracy light line projected on a stock or running or different rail is simultaneously scanned by a group of at least two or three or four cameras.
  • the apparatus is provided with four cameras (two groups of two each) or even eight cameras (two groups of four each) in a preferred embodiment, to simultaneously monitor the accuracy light line projected on both opposite rails of the same track.
  • At least one or at least two cameras are located at both sides of the associated rail and monitor said rail obliquely from above.
  • the location transverse to the longitudinal direction of the rail and/or the angle of inclination of the optical axis of the cameras at the same side of the associated rail mutually differs, preferably by at least 10 or 20 millimeter and 10 or 20 degrees, respectively.
  • the field of vision of a camera has overlapping edges with the field of vision of an adjacent camera. More preferably, the field of vision of a camera has only partly overlap, preferably not more than 20% or 50% overlap, with the field of vision of an adjacent camera at the same (one) side of the associated running or stock or different rail; (and/) or the field of vision of a camera has substantially complete overlap with the field of vision of an adjacent camera at the same (other) side of the associated running or stock or different rail.
