Definitions
- the object of the invention is an electrohydraulic barrier operating device, which is a solution to be primarily used outdoors to operate rail barriers placed at crossings of roads and railways.
- Patent No. DE 3743347 describes such an electric driven barrier that is supplied with a hydraulic breaker drum.
- the accidental failure of power supply leads to trouble of operation, uncertain position of the barrier and as a result, it causes danger of accident.
- a common shortage of all the known barrier-operating devices is that the duration of the opening and closing periods can not be varied, or can be varied only within a small range.
- My intention was to eliminate the shortages of the known barrier operating devices, that is, to construct a device that operates on a much more reliable way than the solutions described above, which is able to operate on safely for a certain time in case of failure of the power supply required for the operation the device, able to complete the opening or closing cycle that has been started in case of fault of operation. Further, the device is able to close the barrier automatically if necessary in case if the fault takes place in the open position, or to keep the closed position of the barrier in case if the fault takes place in the closed position.
- the basic idea of the invention is that if we construct an electrohydraulic barrier operating device comprising an electrohydraulic control unit connected to an hydraulic power package that is provided with an hydraulic accumulator, the operation of the device becomes safe.
- this hydraulic accumulator can be charged continuously by the hydraulic power package preferably through a baroswitch (primarily in the resting - open or closed - position of the railing bar) , so that the energy stored in the accumulator can be driven to the hydraulic appliance even in case of current failure, this hydraulic appliance is in torque transmission connection with the railing bar, so the railing bar can be brought into the required position by the operation of this hydraulic appliance initiated this way.

- the hydraulic accumulator is a steel vessel divided into two parts by an elastic membrane with compressed nitrogen gas in one part of it, the other part is formed so as to act as an oil space.
- a first back-pressure valve is inserted between the router valve operated by an electromagnet opening in case of current failure and the third operating input of the hydraulic transmission unit, and a third back-pressure valve is inserted between the other part of the hydraulic accumulator and the router valve operated by an electromagnet opening in case of current failure.

- the electric control and sent-back system R and the power supply T supplying the device with electricity is also indicated.
- the electric power supply T can be a separate unit as well, but it can also be connected to the known mains of the station AH.
- the electric control and sent-back system R receives the usual input commands BU used at railways, and produces and forwards the required output check-back signals KV.
- FIG. 2 shows the schematic structure of the hydraulic control system.
- the hydraulic transmission unit 8 is constructed as a double-operated twin- piston hydraulic rotatory cylinder.
- the hydraulic accumulator 6 is a steel vessel divided into two parts 6.2 and 6.3 by an elastic membrane 6.1. Compressed nitrogen gas can be found in one part 6.2 of it, the other part 6.3 is formed so as to act as an oil space.

- a reduction valve 5.5 the third connection of the third router valve 5.3 is connected to the second connection of the router valve 7 operated by an electromagnet opening in case of current failure, and it is also connected to the oil filter 4.4 of the hydraulic power package 4.
- the third connection of the third router valve 5.3 is also connected to the fourth connection of the third router valve 5.3 through a further reduction valve 5.4, the second connection of the third router valve 5.3 is fed back before the further reduction valve 5.4.
- the third connection of the third router valve 5.3 is connected directly or indirectly to the feed pump 4.2 of the hydraulic power package 4 and to the other part 6.3 of the hydraulic accumulator 6.
- the feed pump 4.2 driven by an electric motor 4.3 is sinking in the oil tank 4.1 of the hydraulic power package 4.
- the oil tank 4.1 can be filled up through the oil-filler unit 4.5.
- the electrohydraulic barrier operating device according to the invention is described in detail in the following. As it is shown on Figure 2, where the hydraulic transmission unit 8 is constructed as a double-operated twin- piston hydraulic rotatory cylinder, this rotatory cylinder is built in the drive unit housing 1 in vertical position.
- the railing bar 2 with the closing bar 3 connected to it is mounted on the driving axle stub of this rotatory cylinder.
- the two pistons Dl and D2 of the rotatory cylinder being mounted on one axle are connected by a toothed rack F positioned in the axle line, this toothed rack F is connected to the cogged wheel FK mounted on an axle perpendicular to the toothed rack F.
- the linear motion of the pistons Dl and D2 results in the rotational movement of the driving axle.
- the quantity of oil of appropriate pressure as determined by the stroke length (90° turn of axle) and speed of the pistons Dl and D2 required for the linear motion of the pair of pistons Dl and D2 is provided by the hydraulic power package 4 through the electrohydraulic control unit 5.
- the initial position, that is the open or closed position of the railing bar 2 is generated by an input command BU corresponding to the traffic situation with the help of the internal electric control and sent-back system R. It is also this system R that sends output check-back signals KV relating to the movement and the actual position of the railing bar 2 to the known railway control centre.
- an input command BU (which is an electric signal) is valid until another command (electric signal) with opposite meaning is received.
- the input command BU generates an electric connection through the code cylinder situated in the code-sender 9, which results in moving the railing bar 2 into the opposite position and it is kept there until the next command of opposite meaning.
- the input command BU In agreement with the usual basic railway system the input command BU generating and maintaining the open or closed position of the railing bar 2 holds continuously.
- the setting of the railing bar 2 from open (vertical) to closed (horizontal) position takes place as the following, while the hydraulic working fluid is let in through the operating input B, and it is conducted away through the operating input A of the rotatory cylinder.
- the external input command BU energizes the electromagnet Ml of the second router valve 5.2 and the electromagnet M3 of the third router valve 5.3. In this position the first connection and the third connection of the second router valve 5.2 are connected, so the working fluid of the required operating pressure arrives to the operating input B through the control output VB and moves the piston D2 of the ratatory cylinder.
- connection between the toothed rack F and the cogged wheel FK transmits the torque to the driving axle.
- working fluid of the same amount as it was let in through the first operating input A is let out through the first and fourth connection of the third router valve 5.3 and through the reduction valve 5.4 and the oil filter 4.4 to the oil tank 4.1.
- the code sender 9 makes the current of electromagnet M3 stop, so the spring R3 of the third router valve 5.3 switches the returning oil to the reduction valve 5.5 so the oil gets to the oil tank 4.1.
- the hydraulic resistance of reduction valve 5.5 is preferably much larger than the hydraulic resistance of reduction valve 5.4, so it damps the movement of the railing bar 2 that has been accelerated up to this moment, so the "arriving velocity" of the closing bar 3 is reduced. This velocity can be adjusted by the appropriate calibration of the reduction valves 5.4 and 5.5.
- the hydraulic system is protected against excess pressure by the pressure limiting unit 5.1.
- the electromagnet M2 of the second router valve 5.2 is inactive, so spring R2 closes the way between control output VB and the second connection of router valve 5.2, while the first back-pressure valve VI closes the way to router valve 7, so no unauthorised person can move the barrier manually. So in our solution this automatic safety blocking is established by the operating trouble, that is, the current failure. This blocked position can be released only by an authorised operating person preferably with a special tool.
- the electromagnet M4 of the router valve 7 pulls and restores the normal position.
- the third and first connections of router valve 7 is open through the second back-pressure valve V2, in this case it is the third back-pressure valve V3 that prevents backflow.
- the back-pressure valve V4 disconnects the hydraulic power package 4 from the electrohydraulic control unit 5, in this case the operating role of the hydraulic power package 4 is entirely taken over by the hydraulic accumulator 6.
- the capacity of the hydraulic accumulator 6 is enough to complete the possible cycle to be performed as mentioned above, and also, the device is capable to perform further cycles from resting position corresponding to two-four input commands BU.
- the capacity of the hydraulic accumulator 6 can be varied if necessary, and the security can be further improved by doubling the hydraulic accumulator 6.
- the railway control centre (dispatch office) can deliberately stop the current supply of the electrohydraulic barrier operating device initiating this way the above mentioned situation resulting in the blocked closed position of the barrier until the failure is eliminated. In this case only an authorised operating person can operate the barrier manually making temporary crossing possible depending on the actual traffic situation.
