Referring to fig. 1, an air circuit schematic diagram of a braking system for multi-stage emergency braking according to an embodiment of the invention is shown.
The multi-stage brake system 100 includes a reservoir 10, a pressure adjusting device 30, and a relay valve 40.
Preferably, the reservoir 10 is used to output air pressure. The pressure adjusting device 30 includes a first adjusting valve body 31 and a second adjusting valve body 32 connected in parallel with each other, and a first solenoid valve 33; wherein, the first adjusting valve body 31 is connected to the air cylinder 10, the second adjusting valve body 32 is connected to the air cylinder 10, and the first electromagnetic valve 33 is connected to the first adjusting valve body 31 and the second adjusting valve body 32.
Preferably, the relay valve 40 includes a first input 41, a second input 42, and a brake output 45. Wherein the first input 41 is connected to the output of the pressure regulating device 30; the second input 42 is connected to the output of the pressure regulating device 30 via the second solenoid valve 34; the brake output 45 is for outputting the brake pressure P3.
By disposing two adjustment valve bodies (e.g., a first adjustment valve body 31, a second adjustment valve body 32) connected in parallel with each other, a first level of adjustment of braking force is formed, and by disposing two solenoid valves (e.g., a first solenoid valve 33, a second solenoid valve 34) connected to a relay valve 40, a second level of adjustment of braking force is formed; in this way, at least the fourth-order braking force output control can be realized, the average deceleration is effectively improved, and the braking distance is greatly shortened under the use restrictions such as friction pair heat load capacity, adhesion between wheel tracks, and the like.
In one embodiment, the reservoir 10 is used to store compressed air. More specifically, reservoir 10 includes, but is not limited to, a total reservoir R and a brake reservoir R1. Wherein the main reservoir R is used for storing compressed air from a wind source, supplying air to downstream air consuming devices, which may include a brake reservoir R1. The compressed air stored in the brake air cylinder R1 is mainly used for realizing a braking function and assisting in outputting a braking pressure P3.
The pressure adjustment device 30 may receive and adjust the pressure from the reservoir 10, may be the pressure directly from the total reservoir R, may be the pressure directly from the brake reservoir R1 or another reservoir, or may indirectly receive the pressure from the reservoir 10 by connecting a pressure control device 20 described below.
In the preferred embodiment, the input end of the pressure regulator 30 is connected to the pressure control device 20, the pressure control device 20 receives the reservoir pressure P1 from the brake reservoir R1, and the pressure regulator 30 indirectly receives the reservoir pressure P1 from the brake reservoir R1 through the pressure control device 20, and the "access to the reservoir 10" will be understood to be the indirect access to the brake reservoir R1 through the access to the pressure control device 20, and also will be understood to be the access to the volume reservoir 24 described below. For convenience of description, the pressure regulated and outputted by the pressure regulating device 30 is defined herein as the intermediate pressure P2.
Preferably, the output end of the first regulating valve body 31 is connected to the first electromagnetic valve 33, and the output end of the second regulating valve body 32 is connected to the first electromagnetic valve 33. Wherein said first solenoid valve 33 is connected to a first input 41 of a relay valve 40. That is, the two input terminals of the first solenoid valve 33 are connected to the output terminals of the first solenoid valve 33 and the second solenoid valve 34, respectively, and the output terminal of the first solenoid valve 33 is connected to the relay valve 40; at this time, the output end of the first solenoid valve 33 is the output end of the pressure regulator 30, and the pressure value output by the first solenoid valve 33 is the intermediate pressure P2 output by the pressure regulator 30.
Preferably, the first trim valve body 31 and the second trim valve body 32 are configured to have different outlet pressure values, and the outlet pressure value of the first trim valve body 31 is greater than the second trim valve body 32. In this way, the pressure adjusting device 30 can output the intermediate pressure P2 having different pressure values to form a braking force output that varies more variously. In the preferred embodiment, the first adjusting valve body 31 and the second adjusting valve body 32 are both pressure reducing valves, and in other embodiments, the adjusting valve bodies may be pressure limiting valves, which may be selected according to practical situations.
When the first electromagnetic valve 33 is powered off, the first regulating valve body 31 is connected to the air cylinder 10, and the relay valve 40 outputs higher braking force; when the first solenoid valve 33 is energized, the second regulator valve body 32 is connected to the reservoir 10, and the relay valve 40 outputs a low braking force.
In more detail, when the first solenoid valve 33 is de-energized, the first regulator valve body 31 is connected to the reservoir 10, the intermediate pressure P2 output from the pressure regulator 30 has a higher intermediate pressure value P21, and after the intermediate pressure P2 is input to the relay valve 40, the brake pressure P3 output from the relay valve 40 has a higher brake pressure value P31. When the first solenoid valve 33 is energized, the second regulator valve body 31 is connected to the brake cylinder R1, the intermediate pressure P2 output by the pressure regulator 30 has a lower intermediate pressure value P22, and after the intermediate pressure P2 is input to the relay valve 40, the brake pressure P3 output by the relay valve 40 has a lower brake pressure value P32.
In a popular manner, the first input 41 of the relay valve 40 is a basic control pressure input, and the second input 42 is a high and low pressure control pressure input. The first input end 41 is connected to the output end of the first electromagnetic valve 33 (i.e., the output end of the pressure adjusting device 30), and the second input end 42 is connected to the output end of the second electromagnetic valve 34; the second solenoid valve 34 is simultaneously connected to the output of the first solenoid valve 33. In this way, the intermediate pressure P2 from the first solenoid valve 33 may be directly input to the first input port 41, or may be simultaneously input to the first input port 41 and input to the second input port 42 through the second solenoid valve 34, thereby realizing diversified and customized adjustment of braking force.
Specifically, when the second solenoid valve 34 is de-energized, only the first input 41 is connected to the pressure regulating device 30. When the second solenoid valve 34 is energized, the first input 41 and the second input 42 are simultaneously connected to the pressure regulating device 30. Since the pressure adjusting device 30 itself can output at least two pressure values (including, for example, the higher intermediate pressure value P21 and the lower intermediate pressure value P22), at least 2×2=4 combinations of output modes can be formed by adjusting the second solenoid valve 34 and the relay valve 40, and four brake pressures P3 can be output.
In more detail, when the intermediate pressure P2 output from the pressure adjustment device 30 has the higher intermediate pressure value P21, if only the first input port 41 of the relay valve 40 is input, the brake pressure P3 output from the relay valve 40 has the first brake pressure value P311; if the first input 41 and the second input 42 are simultaneously input, the brake pressure P3 output from the relay valve 40 has the second brake pressure value P312. When the intermediate pressure P2 output from the pressure adjustment device 30 has the lower intermediate pressure value P22, if only the first input port 41 of the relay valve 40 is input, the brake pressure P3 output from the relay valve 40 has the third brake pressure value P321; if the first input 41 and the second input 42 are simultaneously input, the brake pressure P3 output from the relay valve 40 has a fourth brake pressure value P322.
In one embodiment, the multi-step braking system 100 may be used to output an emergency braking force. Thus, the multi-stage brake system 100 may be configured to selectively output four kinds of emergency braking forces (for example, output the braking pressure P3 as the emergency braking force) by adjusting the on-off states of the first and second solenoid valves 33 and 34.
(1) When both the first solenoid valve 33 and the second solenoid valve 34 are deenergized, the relay valve 40 outputs the first-order emergency braking force P311. The first-order emergency braking force P311 has the first braking pressure value P311.
(2) When the first electromagnetic valve 33 is deenergized and the second electromagnetic valve 34 is energized, the relay valve outputs a second-stage emergency braking force P312. The second-stage emergency braking force P312 has the second braking pressure value P312.
(3) When the first solenoid valve 33 is energized and the second solenoid valve 34 is deenergized, the relay valve outputs a third-order emergency braking force P321. The third-order emergency braking force P321 has the third braking pressure value P321.
(4) When both the first solenoid valve 33 and the second solenoid valve 34 are energized, the relay valve outputs a fourth-order emergency braking force P322. The fourth-order emergency braking force P322 has the fourth braking pressure value P322.
The brake pressure values of the first-order emergency braking force P311, the second-order emergency braking force P312, the third-order emergency braking force P321, and the fourth-order emergency braking force P322 decrease in order.
The multi-stage braking system 100 is configured to sequentially output a fourth-stage emergency braking force P322, a third-stage emergency braking force P321, a second-stage emergency braking force P312, and a first-stage emergency braking force P311 when emergency braking is performed.
Referring to FIG. 2, in the preferred embodiment, taking a train with the multi-stage brake system 100 as an example, if the running speed of the train is 400km/h, the first regulator valve 31 sets its own outlet pressure value to 4.5bar, and the second regulator valve 32 sets its outlet pressure value to 3.1bar, the following conditions can be exhibited:
when the emergency braking is performed, the braking pressure (fourth-order braking pressure) of 2.6bar can be obtained in the speed range (fourth-order speed range) of 400-350 km/h, the braking pressure (third-order braking pressure) of 3.1bar can be obtained in the speed range (third-order speed range) of 350-300 km/h, the braking pressure (second-order braking pressure) of 3.75bar can be obtained in the speed range (second-order speed range) of 300-250 km/h, and the braking pressure (first-order braking pressure) of 4.5bar can be obtained in the speed range (first-order speed range) below 250 km/h. The four-stage emergency braking control is realized, the average deceleration is improved, the braking distance is shortened under the use limit, and the requirement of the emergency braking multi-stage control of the high-speed motor train unit is met. Wherein the speed values of the first-order speed range, the second-order speed range, the third-order speed range, and the fourth-order speed range are sequentially increased.
In the embodiment where the multi-stage brake system 100 includes the pressure control device 20 connected to the reservoir 10, the pressure control device 20 is specifically connected to the brake reservoir R1 through its input terminal, and the input terminal of the pressure adjustment device 30 is connected to the pressure control device 20.
Preferably, the pressure control device 20 comprises a third electromagnetic valve 21 and a fourth electromagnetic valve 22 which are sequentially arranged along the air inlet direction, and a fifth electromagnetic valve 23 communicated with the outside is connected to the output end of the third electromagnetic valve 21; in other words, since the output of the third solenoid valve 21 is also connected to the input of the fourth solenoid valve 22, i.e., the fifth solenoid valve 23 is also connected to the input of the fourth solenoid valve 22. The output of the fourth solenoid valve 22 may be connected to a volume reservoir 24, and the volume reservoir 24 may be used to directly supply air to the pressure regulating device 30. A first pressure sensor is provided between the pressure control device 20 and the pressure adjustment device 30 for detecting the pressure from the pressure control device 20.
The braking system 100 includes a service braking state (service braking) and an emergency braking state (brake braking). In the service braking state, the first solenoid valve 33 and the second solenoid valve 34 are de-energized, and the cylinder pressure P1 from the brake cylinder R1 is sent to the first regulator valve 31 via the third solenoid valve 21 and the fourth solenoid valve 22 and then via the first pressure sensor, and is directly input to the first input port 41 of the relay valve 40. In the service braking state, the cylinder pressure P1 from the brake cylinder R1 is typically 2-3bar.
In the emergency braking state, the reservoir pressure P1 from the brake reservoir R1 is directly input to the fourth solenoid valve 22, so that the pressure adjusting device 30 is input, and the relay valve 40 can output the four types of brake pressures P3 described above. In an emergency braking situation, the value of the reservoir pressure P1 from the brake reservoir R1 may reach a magnitude of 10 bar.
When the train is in an unbraked state, the fifth electromagnetic valve 23 is conducted, and the gas in the pipeline can be discharged outwards.
In the preferred embodiment, the relay valve 40 also includes a third input 43 and a fourth input 44. The third input end 43 is a total air cylinder pressure input end and is connected with the train total air cylinder R; the fourth pressure input 44 is a load pressure input. Preferably, the relay valve output 45 is further provided with a non-return valve 46 protecting it, the output of the non-return valve 46 being connected to the third input 43.
The present invention includes a rolling stock system comprising a multi-step braking system 100 according to any of the above-described aspects.
Specifically, the multi-stage brake system 100 may configure two trim valve bodies (e.g., the first trim valve body 31, the second trim valve body 32) in parallel with each other, and preferably configure the outlet pressure values of the two trim valve bodies to be unequal. The pressure adjusting device 30 outputs different intermediate pressures P2 through different adjusting valve bodies, forming a first level of adjustment of the braking force.
The first input 41 of the relay valve 40 may be defined as a base control pressure input and is connected to the first solenoid valve 33, and the second input 42 may be defined as a high and low pressure control pressure input and is connected to the second solenoid valve 34. The intermediate pressure P2 output from the pressure regulator 30 may be input to the first input 41 alone, or may be input to both the first input 41 and the second input 42, thereby forming a second level of regulation of the braking force. The rolling stock system including the multi-step brake system 100 according to other embodiments may be formed correspondingly with reference to any of the technical solutions provided above, and will not be described herein.
In summary, the invention forms the first-level adjustment of the braking force by configuring two adjusting valve bodies connected in parallel, and forms the second-level adjustment of the braking force by arranging two electromagnetic valves connected with the relay valve; therefore, at least four-order braking force output control can be realized, the average deceleration is effectively improved, and the braking distance is greatly shortened under the use limit.
