Ausgerüstet ist die bekannte Einrich¬ tung darüber hinaus mit einem Energietransportnetz, an das die dezentralen Feldelemente angeschlossen sind und das die dezentralen Feldelemente mit elektrischer Energie versorgt, wobei das Energietransportnetz Energieeinspeisepunkte auf¬ weist, die entlang einer Energiebusstruktur des Energietransportnetzes verteilt angeordnet sind; die European Patent Application EP 2 821 313 A2 discloses a device for operating decentralized electrical field elements arranged in a track system with a signal box which exchanges information with the decentralized field elements by means of data telegrams. The known device also has a data transport network, which is coupled to the interlocking and connected to the decentralized Feldele ¬ elements. Equipped is the well-known Einrich ¬ tion beyond with an energy transport network to which the decentralized field elements are connected and which supplies the decentralized field elements with electrical energy, the energy transport network has energy supply points ¬ distributed along an energy bus structure of the energy transport network; the
Energieeinspeisepunkte sind durch mindestens eine unabhängige Energieeinspeisung mit entsprechender elektrischer Leistung versorgbar . Energy supply points can be supplied by at least one independent energy supply with corresponding electrical power.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Einrichtung dieser Art hinsichtlich der Energieversorgung der dezentralen Feldelemente zu optimieren. The invention has for its object to optimize a device of this type with respect to the power supply of the decentralized field elements.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe ist bei der Einrichtung der oben angegebenen Art erfindungsgemäß im Zuge der mindestens einen Energieeinspeisung eingangsseitig eine Überwachungseinrichtung angeordnet, von der ein Störungssignal der Energieeinspeisung an das Stellwerk abgebbar ist; das Stellwerk ist geeignet, mit dem Störungssignal jeweils energiebedingt die Feldelemente auf eine Anzahl von gleichzeitig betätigbaren Feldelementen zu begrenzen. To solve this problem, a monitoring device is arranged according to the invention in the course of the at least one energy input on the input side in the device of the type specified above, from which a fault signal of the power supply to the interlocking can be issued; the interlocking is suitable to limit the field elements to a number of simultaneously operable field elements with the disturbance signal in each case energy-related.
Ein wesentlicher Vorteil der erfindungsgemäßen Einrichtung wird darin gesehen, dass mittels der im Zuge der mindestens einen Energieeinspeisung liegenden Überwachungseinrichtung die Möglichkeit besteht, bei einem Störungssignal der Überwa¬ chungseinrichtung nicht eine von vornherein fest gelegte Anzahl von gleichzeitig betätigbaren Feldelementen der dezent- ralen Feldelemente vorzugeben, sondern dass mit dem Störungs¬ signal jeweils situations- bzw. energiebedingt die Feldele¬ mente auf eine Anzahl von gleichzeitig betätigbaren Feldele¬ menten zu begrenzen; mit der insoweit begrenzten Anzahl der gleichzeitig betätigbaren Feldelemente ist sichergestellt, dass alle somit aktivierten Feldelemente situationsbedingt tatsächlich betätigbar sind, so dass bei einer nicht gemelde¬ ten Störung alle Feldelemente ansprechbar sind, während bei einer stark gestörten Energieeinspeisung im Grenzfall nur ein Feldelement betätigbar ist. Als dieses eine Feldelement kann im Rahmen der gesamten Gleisanlage ein besonders wichtiges Feldelement bestimmt sein. A significant advantage of the device according to the invention is seen in the fact that by means of at least a power supply located monitoring device it is possible to specify in a disturbance signal of the surveil ¬ monitoring device, not a fixed from the start number of simultaneously operable array elements of's decentralized array elements, but that the disturbance ¬ signal each situation- or energy constitutes Feldele ¬ mente to limit to a number of simultaneously operable Feldele ¬ elements; With the extent limited number of simultaneously operable field elements ensures that all thus activated field elements are actually actuated situation-dependent, so that in a nichtgeleld ¬ th disturbance all field elements are responsive, while in a strongly disturbed energy feed in the limit case only one field element is actuated. As this one field element, a particularly important field element can be determined within the framework of the entire track system.
Zur Lösung der oben angegebenen Aufgabe bezieht sich die vorliegende Erfindung auch auf eine Einrichtung zum Betreiben von in einer Gleisanlage angeordneten dezentralen, elektrischen Feldelementen mit einem Stellwerk, das mit den dezentralen Feldelementen mittels Datentelegrammen Informationen austauscht, einem Datentransportnetzwerk, das an das Stellwerk angekoppelt und mit den dezentralen Feldelementen ver- bunden ist, einem Energietransportnetz, an das die dezentralen Feldelemente angeschlossen sind und das die dezentralen Feldelemente mit elektrischer Energie versorgt; das Energie¬ transportnetz weist dabei Energieeinspeisepunkte auf, die entlang einer Energiebusstruktur des Energietransportnetzes verteilt angeordnet sind, und die Energieeinspeisepunkte sind durch mindestens eine unabhängige Energieeinspeisung mit ent¬ sprechender elektrischer Leistung versorgbar, und die dezentralen Feldelemente geben jeweils leistungsbezogene Messwerte an das Stellwerk, wie sie ebenfalls aus der eingangs genann- ten Patentanmeldung bekannt ist. Erfindungsgemäß ist einTo achieve the above object, the present invention also relates to a device for operating arranged in a track system decentralized electric field elements with a signal box that communicates with the decentralized field elements by means of data telegrams information, a data transport network coupled to the interlocking and with the decentralized field elements is connected, an energy transport network to which the decentralized field elements are connected and which supplies the decentralized field elements with electrical energy; the energy ¬ transport network in this case has Energieeinspeisepunkte on, which are distributed along a Energiebusstruktur of the power transmission grid, and the Energieeinspeisepunkte be supplied by at least one independent power supply with ent ¬ speaking electric power, and the distributed field elements give each performance related metrics to the interlocking, as they likewise known from the patent application cited above. According to the invention is a
Stellwerk vorgesehen, das geeignet ist, aus den leistungsbe¬ zogenen Messwerten einen leistungsbezogenen Summenmesswert zu bilden und mit dem leistungsbezogenen Summenmesswert jeweils energiebedingt die Feldelemente auf eine Zahl von gleichzei¬ tig betätigbaren Feldelementen zu begrenzen. Interlocking provided which is adapted to form a power-related measurement value from the sum leistungsbe ¬ coated measured values and with the total power-related measurement value in each case energy-related field elements on a number of gleichzei ¬ tig operable array elements to limit.
Bei dieser Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Einrichtung ergibt sich der Vorteil, dass bei Störungen in der Energie¬ einspeisung - sofern sie die einzelnen Feldelemente betrifft - in optimaler Anpassung an die jeweilige zur Verfügung stehende Energieeinspeisung nur die Zahl von gleichzeitig betätigbaren Feldelementen unter den dezentralen Feldelemen- ten ansprechbar ist, für die tatsächlich eine ausreichendeIn this embodiment of the device according to the invention there is the advantage that in case of disturbances in the energy ¬ feed - as far as the individual field elements - in optimal adaptation to the respective available energy supply only the number of simultaneously operable field elements among the decentralized Feldelemen- th is addressable, for which in fact a sufficient
Energieversorgung sichergestellt ist. Arbeitet also die Ener¬ gieeinspeisung einwandfrei, dann sind alle infrage kommenden Feldelemente der Gleisanlage gleichzeitig betätigbar, weil dies die einzelnen Feldelemente signalisieren, während bei einer stark gestörten Energieeinspeisung ungünstigen Falles nur ein einziges Feldelement aktivierbar ist. Energy supply is ensured. So working the Ener ¬ gieeinspeisung properly, then all eligible field elements of the track system can be actuated simultaneously, as this signal the individual field elements, while during a highly distorted power feed unfavorable case only a single array element is activated.
Von besonderer Bedeutung ist die erfindungsgemäße Einrichtung für als Weichen ausgebildete Feldelemente, weil Weichen beim Anlauf einen hohen Energiebedarf haben. Insofern ist es vorteilhaft, dass zumindest einige Feldelemente Weichen sind. Of particular importance is the inventive device for trained as switches field elements, because switches have a high energy consumption during startup. In this respect, it is advantageous that at least some field elements are points.
Die erfindungsgemäße Einrichtung kann sowohl mit einem Stell¬ werk zur Reaktion auf ein Störungssignal der Überwachungsein- richtung als auch mit einem insofern ergänzten Stellwerk versehen sein, als es mit dem leistungsbezogenen Summenmesswert die Feldelemente auf die Zahl der gleichzeitig betätigbaren Feldelemente begrenzt. In diesem Fall ist vorteilhafterweise das Stellwerk geeignet, jeweils aus der einen Anzahl und der Zahl der gleichzeitig betätigbaren Feldelemente die kleinere Elementenanzahl der gleichzeitig betätigbaren Feldelemente als endgültige Begrenzung der gleichzeitig betätigbaren Feld¬ elemente auszuwählen. Die erfindungsgemäße Einrichtung kann hinsichtlich der Energieeinspeisung sowohl als Wechselstromnetz als auch als The device according to the invention can be provided both with an actuating mechanism for responding to a fault signal of the monitoring device and with a signal box supplemented insofar as it limits the field elements to the number of simultaneously actuatable field elements with the power-related sum measured value. In this case, the interlocking is advantageously suitable, each of the one number and the number of simultaneously operable field elements to select the smaller number of elements of the simultaneously operable field elements as the final limit of the simultaneously operable field ¬ elements. With regard to the energy supply, the device according to the invention can be used both as an alternating current network and as a
Gleichstromnetz ausgebildet sein. Erfolgt die Energieversorgung der erfindungsgemäßen Einrichtung bei der vorgegebenen Energiebus-Struktur mit Wechselstrom, dann kann dieser Wechselstrom mit seiner Einspeisung allein von einer Seite der erfindungsgemäßen Einrichtung her erfolgen. Auch kann die Einspeisung von der einen Seite mit einer einfachen oder dop- pelten Versorgungseinheit erfolgen, um im letzteren Falle eine redundante Ausführung hinsichtlich der Energieeinspeisung zu erreichen. In beiden Fällen ist in vorteilhafter Weise das Stellwerk der erfindungsgemäßen Einrichtung geeignet, bei einem Energietransportnetz als Wechselstromnetz aus leistungs- bezogenen Wechselstrom-Messwerten einen leistungsbezogenenDC network be formed. If the power supply of the device according to the invention at the given Power bus structure with alternating current, then this alternating current can be done with its feed alone from one side of the device according to the invention forth. The feed can also be from one side with a single or double supply unit in order to achieve a redundant design with regard to the energy supply in the latter case. In both cases, the interlocking of the device according to the invention is advantageously suitable, in the case of an energy transport network as AC network from power-related AC measured values, a performance-related
Summenwechselstrommesswert zu bilden und damit energiebedingt die Anzahl von gleichzeitig betätigbaren Feldelementen in den dezentralen Feldelementen zu begrenzen. Bei einem Anschluss der erfindungsgemäßen Einrichtung an ein Gleichstromnetz, wie in der eingangs angegebenen europäischen Patentanmeldung beschrieben, ist das Stellwerk geeignet, bei einem Energietransportnetz als Gleichstromnetz aus leistungsbezogenen Gleichstrom-Messwerten einen leistungsbezogenen Summengleichstrom-Messwert zu bilden und damit energiebedingt die Feldelemente auf die Zahl von gleichzeitig betätigbaren Feldelementen zu begrenzen. To form Summenstromstrommesswert and thus energy-related to limit the number of simultaneously operable field elements in the decentralized field elements. In a connection of the device according to the invention to a DC network, as described in the European patent application mentioned above, the interlocking is suitable to form a performance-related summation DC measured value in an energy transport network as a DC network of performance-related DC measured values and thus the field elements energy-related to the number of limit simultaneously operable field elements.
Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Einrichtung hat sich ferner als vorteilhaft herausgestellt, dass jeweils ein das Anlaufen der Weichen unterstützender Kondensator in einer Versorgungseinheit für die jeweiligen Weichen angeordnet ist, wobei die Versorgungseinheit über eine Netzknoteneinheit an das Gleich¬ stromnetz angekoppelt ist. Der Vorteil dieser Anordnung des Kondensators in der Versorgungseinheit für die jeweiligenIn the device according to the invention has also been found to be advantageous that in each case a startup of the turnouts supporting capacitor is arranged in a supply unit for the respective switches, wherein the supply unit is coupled via a network node unit to the DC ¬ power grid. The advantage of this arrangement of the capacitor in the supply unit for the respective
Weichen besteht darin, dass der Kondensator zur Energieversorgung der Weiche bereits aufgeladen sein kann, wenn sich auf dem Energiebus eine Störung eingestellt hat; ein solcher Störungsfall lässt die Aufladung des Kondensators weiterhin bestehen, so dass von dem Kondensator auch bei einer nachfolgenden Störung die Weiche betätigt werden kann. Die Erfindung bezieht sich ferner auf ein Verfahren zum Betreiben von in einer Gleisanlage angeordneten dezentralen, elektrischen Feldelementen mit einem Stellwerk, das mit den dezentralen Feldelementen mittels Datentelegrammen Informati- onen austauscht, einem Datentransportnetzwerk, das an das Stellwerk angekoppelt und mit den dezentralen Feldelementen verbunden ist, einem Energietransportnetz, an das die dezentralen Feldelemente angeschlossen sind und das die dezentralen Feldelemente mit elektrischer Energie versorgt, wobei das Energietransportnetz Energieeinspeisepunkte aufweist, die entlang einer Energiebusstruktur des Energietransportnetzes verteilt angeordnet sind, und die Energieeinspeisepunkte durch mindestens eine unabhängige Energieeinspeisung mit ent¬ sprechender elektrischer Leistung versorgbar sind, wie es aus der eingangs angegebenen europäischen Patentanmeldung bekannt ist, und zeichnet sich zur Lösung der oben angegebenen Aufgabe erfindungsgemäß dadurch aus, dass mit einer im Zuge der mindestens einen Energieeinspeisung liegenden Überwachungseinrichtung ein Störungssignal an das Stellwerk abgebbar ist und von dem Stellwerk mit dem Störungssignal jeweils energie¬ bedingt die Feldelemente auf eine Anzahl von gleichzeitig betätigbaren Feldelementen begrenzt wird. The course is that the capacitor for supplying energy to the switch can already be charged if a malfunction has occurred on the power bus; such a fault case continues to charge the capacitor, so that the switch can be operated by the capacitor even in a subsequent fault. The invention further relates to a method for operating decentralized, electric field elements arranged in a track system with a signal box which exchanges information with the decentralized field elements by means of data telegrams, a data transport network which is coupled to the signal box and connected to the decentralized field elements , a energy transport network to which the remote field elements are connected and which supplies the decentralized field elements with electrical energy, wherein the energy transmission system comprising Energieeinspeisepunkte, which are distributed along a Energiebusstruktur of the power transmission grid, and the Energieeinspeisepunkte by at least one independent power supply with ent ¬ speaking electrical Power can be supplied, as is known from the European patent application mentioned above, and is characterized to achieve the above object according to the invention by the, s with a lying in the course of at least one power supply monitoring device, a fault signal can be delivered to the interlocking and each of the interlocking with the fault signal energy ¬ conditionally the field elements is limited to a number of simultaneously operable field elements.

Bei beiden Ausführungsformen des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens ist es vorteilhaft, wenn von dem Stellwerk jeweils aus der Anzahl und der Zahl der gleichzeitig betätigbaren Feldelemente die kleinere Feldelementenzahl der gleichzeitig In the method according to the invention switches are used in at least some field elements. In both embodiments of the method according to the invention, it is advantageous if from the interlocking each of the number and the number of simultaneously operable field elements, the smaller field element number of the same time
betätigbaren Feldelemente als endgültige Begrenzung ausge- wählt wird, wodurch von dem Stellwerk insgesamt für eine op¬ timale Energieversorgung im Hinblick auf die jeweilige operable field elements is selected as the final limitation, which in total of the signal box for an op ¬ timale power supply with respect to the respective
Einspeisesituation und die Anzahl der Feldelemente gesorgt ist . Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren wird es auch als vorteilhaft angesehen, wenn bei einem Energietransportnetz als Wechselstromnetz aus leistungsbezogenen Wechselstrom-Messwerten ein leistungsbezogener Summenwechselstrommesswert gebildet und damit jeweils energiebedingt die Anzahl von gleichzeitig betätigbaren Feldelementen begrenzt wird. Infeed situation and the number of field elements is taken care of. In the method according to the invention, it is also considered advantageous if, in the case of an energy transport network, a performance-related AC measured value is formed from AC-related measured values and thus the number of field elements which can be actuated simultaneously is limited in terms of energy.
Vorteilhaft erscheint es ferner, wenn bei einem Energietrans¬ portnetz als Gleichstromnetz aus leistungsbezogenen Gleich- strom-Messwerten ein leistungsbezogener Summengleichstrom- Messwert gebildet wird und damit jeweils energiebedingt die Feldelemente auf die Zahl von gleichzeitig betätigbaren Feld¬ elementen begrenzt werden. Advantageously, it appears if, in an energy Trans ¬ port network as a DC power from DC power related Current measured values a performance-related summation DC measured value is formed and thus each energy-related field elements are limited to the number of simultaneously operable field ¬ elements.
Zur weiteren Erläuterung der Erfindung ist in For further explanation of the invention is in
Fig. 1 ein Ausführungsbeispiel der erfindungsgemäßen Einrichtung für Gleich- oder Wechselstromeinspeisung und in Fig. 1 shows an embodiment of the device according to the invention for DC or AC feed and in
Fig. 2 ein weiteres Ausführungsbeispiel mit einer Gleich- stromeinspeisung 2 shows a further exemplary embodiment with a direct current feed
gezeigt . In Fig. 1 ist ein Stellwerk 1 zu erkennen, das über jeweils eine Datenverbindung 2 bzw. 3 mit einer Überwachungseinrichtung 4 bzw. 5 verbunden ist. Jede der Überwachungseinrichtungen 4 bzw. 5 ist an eine Energieeinspeisung 6 bzw. 7 angeschlossen, die von nicht gezeigten Gleichstromquellen ge- speist ist. shown. In Fig. 1, a signal box 1 can be seen, which is connected via a respective data connection 2 or 3 with a monitoring device 4 and 5 respectively. Each of the monitoring devices 4 and 5 is connected to a power supply 6 and 7, respectively, which is fed by DC sources not shown.
An die Überwachungseinrichtung 4 ist ein Energieversorgungsbus 8 angeschlossen, der mit mehreren Energieeinspeisepunkten 9 und 10 verbunden ist. An die weitere Überwachungseinrich- tung 5 ist ein weiterer Energiebus 11 angeschlossen, der seinerseits über Einspeisepunkte 12 und 13 verfügt. Die Energie¬ busse 8 und 11 bilden ein Energietransportnetz 14, das mit Gleich- oder Wechselstrom betrieben werden kann. Mittels der einen Überwachungseinrichtung 4 und der weiteren Überwachungseinrichtung 5 wird überprüft, ob die Energieeinspeisung über die Energieeinspeisung 6 bzw. 7 einwandfrei verläuft oder ob eine Störung aufgetreten ist. Wird eine sol¬ che Störung beispielsweise von der Überwachungseinrichtung 4 insofern festgestellt, dass die Energieeinspeisung 6 vollkommen ausgefallen ist, dann wird dies mittels eines Störungs¬ signals Sl über die Datenverbindung 2 dem Stellwerk 1 gemeldet. Daraufhin wird von dem Stellwerk 1 die Energieeinspei- sung 7 aktiviert und somit die Energieversorgung für den Energiebus 11 sichergestellt. Über die Datenverbindung 3 wird dies mit einem Signal S2 dem Stellwerk 1 von der weiteren Überwachungseinrichtung 5 mitgeteilt. To the monitoring device 4, a power supply bus 8 is connected, which is connected to a plurality of Energieeinspeisepunkten 9 and 10. Connected to the further monitoring device 5 is a further power bus 11, which in turn has input points 12 and 13. The energy ¬ buses 8 and 11 form an energy transmission network 14, which can be operated with direct or alternating current. By means of a monitoring device 4 and the further monitoring device 5, it is checked whether the energy supply via the energy supply 6 or 7 runs properly or whether a fault has occurred. If a sol ¬ che disorder, for example, insofar as detected by the monitoring device 4 that the power supply 6 is completely failed, then this is reported by means of a fault signal Sl ¬ over data link 2 interlocking the first Thereupon the interlocking 1 receives the energy input. sung 7 and thus ensures the power supply for the power bus 11. This is communicated to the signal box 1 by the further monitoring device 5 via the data connection 3.
Stellt die Überwachungseinrichtung 4 hingegen fest, dass über die Energieeinspeisung 6 nur relativ wenig Energie eingespeist wird, dann wird mit dem Störungssignal Sl dem Stell¬ werk 1 signalisiert, dass noch ein gewisser Energiefluss vor- handen ist. Dieser Energiefluss wird zusammen mit einer voll¬ ständig funktionierenden Energieeinspeisung 7 im Stellwerk 1 berücksichtigt, so dass dort insgesamt feststellbar ist, dass eine ausreichende Energieversorgung vorhanden ist. Allerdings bezieht sich diese Betrachtung lediglich auf die Ergebnisse der Überwachungseinrichtungen 4 und 5. If the monitoring device 4, on the other hand, determines that only relatively little energy is supplied via the energy feed 6, then with the fault signal S1 the actuating mechanism 1 is signaled that a certain energy flow is still present. This energy flow is taken into account together with a fully ¬ constantly functioning energy supply 7 in the interlocking 1, so that there is a total determined that a sufficient energy supply is available. However, this consideration only relates to the results of the monitoring devices 4 and 5.
Wie die Fig. 1 nämlich ferner zeigt, sind an den Namely, as shown in FIG. 1, are on the
Einspeisepunkten 9 und 12 bzw. 10 und 13 des Energietrans¬ portnetzes 14 Messwertgeber 15 und 16 angeschlossen. Mittels dieser Messwertgeber 15 und 16 werden jeweils leistungsbezo- gene Messwerte von dezentralen Feldelementen 17 und 18 gebildet, die als Signale S3 und S4 zu dem Stellwerk 1 übertragen werden. Die dezentralen Feldelemente 17 und 18 sind Weichen. Sowohl dem Messwertgeber 15 als auch dem Messwertgeber 16 ist jeweils ein Spannungswandler 19 bzw. 20 nachgeordnet, mit de¬ nen die Spannung des Energietransportnetzes 14 jeweils auf die für eine Weichensteuerung 21 bzw. 22 erforderliche Eingangsspannung konvertiert wird. Feed points 9 and 12 or 10 and 13 of the Energietrans ¬ port network 14 transmitters 15 and 16 connected. Power-related measured values of decentralized field elements 17 and 18, which are transmitted to the signal box 1 as signals S3 and S4, are respectively formed by means of these transducers 15 and 16. The decentralized field elements 17 and 18 are switches. Both the transmitter 15 and the transmitter 16 are each a voltage converter 19 and 20 downstream, with de ¬ nen the voltage of the energy transport network 14 is respectively converted to the required for a switch controller 21 and 22 input voltage.
Hinsichtlich der dezentralen Feldelemente 17 und 18 als Weichen und der jeweiligen Weichenansteuerung 21 bzw. 22 arbeitet die Einrichtung gemäß Fig. 1 in der Weise, dass die leis- tungsbezogenen Messwerte S3 und S4 als leistungsbezogene Gleichstrom- oder Wechselstrommesswerte über ein Datentrans- portnetz 23 an das Stellwerk 1 übertragen werden, das so ausgeführt ist, dass es aus den leistungsbezogenen Messwerten S3 und S4 einen leistungsbezogenen Summenmesswert als Gleich- ström- oder Wechselstromsummenmesswert bildet. Mit dem leis- tungsbezogenen Summenmesswert wird jeweils energie- bzw. si¬ tuationsbedingt eine Zahl von gleichzeitig betätigbaren Feld¬ elementen 17 und 18 begrenzt, die mit der vorhandenen Energie noch ausreichend versorgt werden können. Im vorliegenden Beispiel werden weitere mit Punkten angedeutete Feldelemente dann nicht aktiviert, so dass hier nur zwei Weichen 17 und 18 aktiviert werden. Dabei ist das Stellwerk 1 insgesamt so ausgelegt, dass es die aus der Beobachtung der Überwachungseinrichtung 4 und 5 mittels der Störungssignale Sl und S2 resultierende Anzahl von gleichzeitig betätigbaren Feldelementen und die mittels der dezentralen Feldelemente 17 und 18 gewonnenen leistungsbezo- genen Messwerte berücksichtigt und dabei zu einer optimalen Begrenzung der jeweils insgesamt gleichzeitig betätigbaren Feldelemente gelangt. With regard to the decentralized field elements 17 and 18 as switches and the respective point drivers 21 and 22, the device according to FIG. 1 operates in such a way that the power-related measured values S3 and S4 are transmitted as power-related DC or AC measured values via a data transport network 23 the interlocking unit 1 is implemented, which is designed such that it uses the power-related measured values S3 and S4 to generate a performance-related summation measured value as equal current or AC summation reading. With the performance-related sum reading a number of simultaneously operable field ¬ elements is each energy or si ¬ tuationsbedingt limits 17 and 18, which can be adequately supplied with the available energy still. In the present example, further field elements indicated by dots are then not activated, so that only two switches 17 and 18 are activated here. In this case, the interlocking 1 is overall designed so that it takes into account the resulting from the observation of the monitoring device 4 and 5 by means of the interference signals Sl and S2 number of simultaneously operable field elements and the means of the decentralized field elements 17 and 18 obtained power related measured values and thereby an optimal limitation of the total simultaneously operable field elements passes.
Zu ergänzen ist, dass an die Spannungswandler 19 und 20 je- weils ein Kondensator 24 und 25 angeschlossen ist, der dasIt should be added that to the voltage transformers 19 and 20 each have a capacitor 24 and 25 is connected, the
Anlaufen der Weichen 17 und 18 unterstützt. Jeder Kondensator 24 und 25 ist über eine Versorgungseinheit mit dem Spannungs¬ wandler 19 bzw. 20 verbunden, die über eine nicht gezeigte Netzknoteneinheit an das Gleichstromnetz bzw. den Energiebus 14 angekoppelt ist, wodurch im Störungsfall die im Energiebus verbleibende Energie zur langsamen Wiederaufladung der Kondensatoren 24 und 25 genutzt werden kann. Start of turnouts 17 and 18 supported. Each capacitor 24 and 25 is connected via a supply unit to the voltage converter ¬ 19 and 20, which is coupled via a network node unit, not shown, to the DC network or power bus 14, whereby in case of failure, the energy remaining in the power bus for slow recharge of the capacitors 24 and 25 can be used.
Das Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß Fig. 2, in dem mit Fig. 1 über- einstimmende Elemente mit den gleichen Bezugszeichen versehen sind, unterscheidet sich von dem nach Fig. 1 dadurch, dass Gleichstromeinspeisung vorliegt, so dass es hier nur einen Gleichstrom-Energiebus 30 gibt, der sich von der einen The exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 2, in which elements which correspond to FIG. 1 are provided with the same reference numerals, differs from that according to FIG. 1 in that DC input is present, so that there is only one DC power bus 30 here, which is different from the one
Gleichstromeinspeisung 6 über die eine Überwachungseinrich- tung 4 und die weitere Überwachungseinrichtung 5 zur anderen Gleichstromeinspeisung 7 erstreckt und dabei über Messwertge¬ ber 15 und 16 geführt ist. Das Stellwerk 1 arbeitet so, wie in Fig. 1 beschrieben, berücksichtigt demzufolge Störungssignale Sl von beispielsweise der einen Überwachungseinrichtung 4, um dann zunächst eine Anzahl von gleichzeitig betätigbaren Feldelementen in Form der Weichen 17 und 18 zu bestimmen. DC infeed 6 via a monitoring device 4 and the further monitoring device 5 extends to the other DC power supply 7 and is guided via Messwertge ¬ about 15 and 16. The interlocking 1 operates as described in Fig. 1, consequently takes into account interference signals Sl of for example the one monitoring device 4, to then first determine a number of simultaneously operable field elements in the form of switches 17 and 18.
Auch hierbei wird ergänzend mit Messwertgebern 15 bzw. 16 je¬ weils ein leistungsbezogener Messwert als Gleichstrommesswert gebildet und als Signal S3 bzw. S4 dem Stellwerk 1 zugeführt. Daraufhin wird in dem Stellwerk 1 ein leistungsbezogenerAlso in this case is additionally depending ¬ weils formed with transducers 15 and 16 respectively, a power-related measurement value as a direct current measurement value and sent as a signal S3 or S4 to the signal box. 1 Then in the interlocking 1 is a performance-related

betätigbaren Feldelemente aufgrund der Arbeitsweise der Über¬ wachungseinrichtungen 4 und 5 mitberücksichtigt werden. Ergeben sich keine kritischen leistungsbezogenen Messwerte von den Messwertgebern 15 und 16, dann verbleibt es - im vorlie¬ genden Beispiel - bei einer Begrenzung der gleichzeitig betätigbaren Feldelemente auf die Weichen 17 und 18. actuated array elements are taken into account due to the operation of the cross ¬ monitoring devices. 4 and 5 If there are no critical performance-related measurements from the transducers 15 and 16, it remains - in vorlie ¬ constricting example - while limiting the simultaneously actuated array elements on the switch. 17 and 18
