Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Wirbelstrombremse mit einer Einrichtung zum Überwachen ihres Zustands an einem Schienenfahrzeug mit einem der Schiene zugewandten Bremskörper, wobei der Bremskörper zur Erdung über ein Erdkabel mit einem Schienenrad des Schienenfahrzeugs in Verbindung steht und am Schienenfahrzeug über einen Isolierkörper gehalten ist.The invention relates to an eddy current brake with a device for monitoring it Condition on a rail vehicle with a brake body facing the rail, the Brake body for grounding via an earth cable with a rail wheel of the rail vehicle is connected and on the rail vehicle is held over an insulating body.

Bei einer solchen Wirbelstrombremse ist als Bestandteil des Bremskörpers in der Regel mindestens ein Elektromagnet der Schiene zugewandt. Ein Stromfluss durch einen solchen Magneten bewirkt einen Wirbelstrom in der Schiene und damit ein Abbremsen des Fahrzeuges. Falls die Wirbelstrombremse zumindest teilweise permanent wirken soll, können ein oder mehrere Permanentmagnete vorhanden sein.In such an eddy current brake is part of the Brake body usually at least one electromagnet Facing rail. A current flow through such a magnet causes an eddy current in the rail and thus Braking the vehicle. If the eddy current brake at least one or more can be partially permanent Permanent magnets may be present.

Isolierkörper sind erforderlich, um Ströme aus dem Schienenfahrzeug am Bremskörper vorbei gezielt in die Schiene zu führen und um das Entstehen von Strompfaden aufgrund von Korrosion zu vermeiden. Solche Strompfade können beispielsweise zum Ausfall eines Achslagers und sogar zum Blockieren einer Achse führen.Insulating bodies are required to keep currents out of the rail vehicle to guide past the brake body into the rail and the formation of current paths due to corrosion to avoid. Such current paths can, for example failure of an axle bearing and even blocking one Lead axis.

Bei schadhaften Gleisen kann es vorkommen, dass der Bremskörper, z.B. die Magnete der Wirbelstrombremse, zeitweise auf die Schiene aufsetzen, was zu einer Beschädigung des Bremskörpers führen könnte. Darüber hinaus besteht die Gefahr, dass ein Isolierkörper am Lager der Bremse beschädigt werden könnte. Eine solche Beschädigung des Isolierkörpers kann durch das Aufsetzen des Bremskörpers aber auch durch andere äußere Einwirkungen hervorgerufen werden. In the case of defective tracks, the brake body, e.g. the magnets of the eddy current brake, temporarily put the rail on, causing damage to the brake body could lead. There is also a risk that an insulating body on the bearing of the brake will be damaged could. Such damage to the insulating body can by putting on the brake body but also by others external influences are caused.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Wirbelstrombremse mit einer Einrichtung zum Überwachen ihres Zustandes anzugeben, die sowohl das unerwünschte Aufsetzen des Bremskörpers auf die Schiene, als auch eine Beschädigung des Isolierkörpers, die einen Strompfad zur Folge hätte, zu erkennen gestattet.The invention has for its object an eddy current brake with a device to monitor their condition, which both the unwanted attachment of the brake body on the rail, as well as damage to the insulating body, that would result in a current path allowed.

Die Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung dadurch gelöst, dass das Erdkabel mit einem Strommesser in Verbindung steht, dem eine Auswerteeinheit nachgeschaltet ist.The object is achieved according to the invention in that the Earth cable is connected to an ammeter, the one Evaluation unit is connected downstream.

Falls der Bremskörper auf die Schiene aufsetzt, ergibt sich eine leitende Verbindung vom Schienenrad über das Erdkabel und den Bremskörper zur Schiene. Ein Teil des Stromes, der üblicherweise ständig vom Schienenfahrzeug über das Schienenrad zur Schiene fließt, fließt dann über das Erdkabel. Dort wird der Stromfluss vom Strommesser erkannt und dann in der Auswerteeinheit ausgewertet.If the brake body touches the rail, it results a conductive connection from the rail wheel via the underground cable and the brake body to the rail. Part of the stream that usually constantly from the rail vehicle via the rail wheel flows to the rail, then flows over the underground cable. There the current flow is recognized by the ammeter and then in the Evaluation unit evaluated.

Falls der Isolierkörper beschädigt ist, kommt es zu einem Stromfluss vom Schienenfahrzeug über den dann leitenden Isolierkörper, den Bremskörper, das Erdkabel und das Schienenrad zur Schiene. Der Stromfluss wird im Erdkabel vom Strommesser erkannt und dann in der Auswerteeinheit ausgewertet.If the insulator is damaged, there will be a Current flow from the rail vehicle through the then conductive insulating body, the brake body, the underground cable and the rail wheel to the rail. The current flow in the underground cable is from the ammeter recognized and then evaluated in the evaluation unit.

Falls keine Störung vorliegt, fließt kein Strom durch das Erdkabel.If there is no fault, no current will flow through the Underground cables.

Es wird der Vorteil erzielt, dass sowohl das Berühren der Schiene durch den Bremskörper, als auch eine Beschädigung des Isolierkörpers frühzeitig erkannt werden, so dass rechtzeitig vor einem größeren Schaden geeignete Maßnahmen, eine Reparatur oder ein Austausch von Komponenten, vorgenommen werden kann.The advantage is achieved that both touching the Rail through the brake body, as well as damage to the Insulator are recognized early, so that in time before a major damage appropriate measures, a repair or an exchange of components can.

Der Bremskörper besteht beispielsweise aus mehreren Polspulen, die zwischen zwei Endstücken angeordnet sind. Diese Polspulen haben die Funktion von Elektromagneten. Der Bremskörper kann auch Permanentmagneten aufweisen.The brake body consists, for example, of several pole coils, which are arranged between two end pieces. These pole coils have the function of electromagnets. The brake body can also have permanent magnets.

Der Bremskörper hat beispielsweise Tragarme, die über Isolierkörper am Schienenfahrzeug gelagert sind. Dazu können Achslager dienen.The brake body has, for example, support arms that have insulating bodies are stored on the rail vehicle. You can do this Serve axle bearings.

Beispielsweise ist der Bremskörper über Isolierkörper, die elektrisch isolierende Bälge sind, am Schienenfahrzeug aufgehängt. Häufig sind sowohl Tragarme als auch Bälge vorhanden.For example, the brake body over insulating body that electrically insulating bellows are suspended from the rail vehicle. Often there are both support arms and bellows.

Das Erdkabel ist beispielsweise ein flexibles Erdungsseil. Dadurch ist die gewünschte Erdung stets gegeben.The underground cable is, for example, a flexible grounding cable. This means that the required earthing is always provided.

Die Auswerteeinheit weist beispielsweise eine Vorrichtung zum Erkennen der zeitlichen Dauer eines erhöhten Stromes auf. Damit wird der Vorteil erzielt, dass beim Aufsetzen des Bremskörpers auf die Schiene die Dauer des Aufsetzens erkannt wird.The evaluation unit has, for example, a device for Detect the duration of an increased current. In order to the advantage is achieved that when placing the brake body the duration of the touchdown recognized on the rail becomes.

Mit der Einrichtung nach der Erfindung wird insbesondere der Vorteil erzielt, dass die Zuverlässigkeit einer Wirbelstrombremse während des Betriebes des Schienenfahrzeuges, das z.B. ein ICE 3 ist, laufend überwacht werden kann.With the device according to the invention, in particular Advantage achieved that the reliability of an eddy current brake during the operation of the rail vehicle, e.g. is an ICE 3, can be monitored continuously.

Als Teil des Schienenfahrzeuges ist ein Drehgestell dargestellt. Es besteht aus einem Drehgestellrahmen 6, mit dem Schienenräder 2 in Verbindung stehen. Der Bremskörper weist einen Polschuhträger 9 für die Polspulen 3 auf, der über isolierende Bälge 11 am Drehgestellrahmen 6 befestigt ist. Außerdem hat der Bremskörper Tragarme 10 die elektrisch isoliert an Achslagergehäusen 5 abgestützt sind, die mit den Achslagern der Schienenräder 2 verbunden sind. Zwischen jedem Tragarm 10 und dem dazugehörigen Achslagergehäuse 5 sind dazu Isolierungen angebracht, die einen korrodierenden Stromfluss von den Polspulen 3 über die Achslager zu den Schienenrädern 2 unterbinden. Der Bremskörper ist ausgehend vom Polschuhträger 9 über Erdkabel 12 und andere leitende Bauteile mit dem Schienenrad 2 und damit mit der Schiene 1 verbunden.Figure 1 shows as part of an eddy current brake of a rail vehicle several pole coils 3 arranged in a row are limited by end pieces 4.

The brake body starts from the pole shoe carrier 9 via underground cable 12 and other conductive components with the Rail wheel 2 and thus connected to the rail 1.

    Um einerseits feststellen zu können, ob die Isolierungen und auch die isolierende Wirkung der Bälge 11 noch funktionstüchtig sind und um andererseits feststellen zu können, ob infolge einer unebenen Schiene 1 der Bremskörper beim Fahren auf die Schiene 1 aufsetzt, ist in das Erdkabel 12 ein Strommesser 14 eingebunden, der über eine Datenleitung 17 mit einer Auswerteeinheit 8 verbunden ist, die an einer Bodenplatte 7 des Schienenfahrzeugs befestigt ist.On the one hand to be able to determine whether the insulation and the insulating effect of the bellows 11 is still functional and on the other hand to be able to determine whether as a result an uneven rail 1 of the brake body when driving puts on the rail 1, is an ammeter in the underground cable 12 14 involved, the via a data line 17 with a Evaluation unit 8 is connected to a base plate 7 of the rail vehicle is attached.

    Falls eine Isolierung zwischen Tragarm 10 und Achslagergehäuse 5 defekt bzw. die isolierende Wirkung der Bälge 11 gestört sein sollten, fließt ein Kurzschlussstrom durch das Erdkabel 12, der mit Hilfe des Strommessers 14 von der Auswerteeinheit 8 erkannt wird.
    Ein erhöhter Stromfluss durch das Erkabel 12 wird auch erkannt, falls der Bremskörper auf die Schiene 1 aufsetzt.
    If insulation between the support arm 10 and axle bearing housing 5 is defective or the insulating effect of the bellows 11 is disturbed, a short-circuit current flows through the underground cable 12, which is detected by the evaluation unit 8 with the aid of the ammeter 14.
