[0030]
Next, operations in the remote control system 1 until the train 3 can be operated will be described. FIG. 4 is a sequence diagram showing an operation until the train 3 is made operable in the remote control system 1 according to the present embodiment. First, the communication part 31 of OCC2 transmits the starting instruction | indication which instruct | indicates starting of the train 3 with respect to ATC5 (step S1). In FIG. 4, the activation instruction is described as “Train wake up command”. In the ATC 5, when the communication unit 51 receives the activation instruction, the activation instruction is transferred to the control unit 52. The control unit 52 causes the BCG 8 of the DC power supply 7 to supply power to the power line D3 that supplies power to the TCMS 6, and turns on the power of the TCMS 6 (step S2). In the TCMS 6, when the power is turned on by the control of the ATC 5, the TCMS 6 starts up its own system so that the operation of the vehicle equipment mounted on the train 3 can be controlled. In the TCMS 6, when a certain time, for example, about 2 minutes elapses after the power is turned on, the system start-up process ends and the operation of the vehicle device can be controlled.
[0031]
In the TCMS 6, when the CCU 23 is activated by the control of the ATC 5, the CCU 23 turns on the vehicle equipment control power supply (step S3). In FIG. 4, the operation of the CCU 23 is described as “STUR ON”. Specifically, the CCU 23 causes the BCG 8 of the DC power supply 7 to supply power to the power line D1 that supplies power to the first vehicle device via the one or more CNs 21 and RIO 25, and thereby the first vehicle device. Turn on the power. Examples of the first vehicle device that receives power supply from the power line D1 include SIV12 and CI13. However, the first vehicle device is an example, and includes other vehicle devices not shown.
[0032]
The CCU 23 raises the pantograph 10 via one or more CNs 21 and RIOs 25. Specifically, the CCU 23 raises the current collecting portion of the pantograph 10 to contact the overhead wire (step S4). In FIG. 4, the operation of the CCU 23 is described as “Panto up”. After raising the pantograph 10, the CCU 23 closes the VCB 11 via one or more CNs 21 and RIOs 25 (step S5). In FIG. 4, the operation of the CCU 23 is described as “VCB Close”. When the VCB 11 is in the closed state, as shown in FIG. 2, the high-voltage AC power acquired from the overhead line is converted into a desired voltage by the main transformer 14, SIV 12, and CI 13. The CCU 23 controls the main transformer 14, the SIV 12, and the CI 13 to supply power to the second vehicle device. The second vehicle device that has received the power whose voltage has been converted by the main transformer 14, the SIV 12, and the CI 13 is turned on and starts operating (step S6). In FIG. 4, the power-on state of the second vehicle device is represented as vehicle device high-voltage power-on.
[0033]
In addition, in the remote control system 1, the operation | movement at the time of complete | finishing operation | movement of the train 3 will process by the reverse flow to the operation | movement until the above-mentioned operation | movement is started. FIG. 5 is a sequence diagram showing an operation until the operation of the train 3 is stopped in the remote control system 1 according to the present embodiment. First, the communication part 31 of OCC2 transmits the stop instruction | indication which instruct | indicates the stop of the operation of the train 3 with respect to ATC5 (step S11). In FIG. 5, the stop instruction is described as “Train shout down command”. In the ATC 5, when the communication unit 51 receives a stop instruction, the stop instruction is transferred to the control unit 52. The control unit 52 causes the communication unit 51 to transfer a stop instruction to the TCMS 6 (step S12).
[0034]
In TCMS6, CCU23 acquires a stop instruction | indication via the communication part 51 and CN21 of ATC5. The CCU 23 opens the VCB 11 via the one or more CNs 21 and the RIO 25, that is, opens the VCB 11 (step S13). In FIG. 5, the operation of the CCU 23 is described as “VCB Open”. When the VCB 11 is in the open state, the high-voltage AC power acquired from the overhead line is not supplied to the main transformer 14 as shown in FIG. The CCU 23 stops the conversion process in the main transformer 14, the SIV 12, and the CI 13 and stops the supply of power to the second vehicle device. As a result, the power of the second vehicle device that is no longer supplied with power is turned off (step S14). After the VCB 11 is opened, the CCU 23 lowers the pantograph 10 via one or more CNs 21 and RIOs 25. Specifically, the CCU 23 lowers the current collecting portion of the pantograph 10 and separates it from the overhead line (step S15). In FIG. 5, the operation of the CCU 23 is described as “Panto down”.
[0035]
The CCU 23 turns off the vehicle equipment control power supply (step S16). In FIG. 5, the operation of the CCU 23 is described as “STUR OFF”. Specifically, the CCU 23 stops the supply of power to the power line D1 to the BCG 8 of the DC power supply 7 via the one or more CN 21 and RIO 25, and turns off the power of the first vehicle device. The CCU 23 stops the operation of the TCMS 6 including itself and turns off the power after the stipulated first time has elapsed after the process of Step S16 (Step S17).
[0036]
In the ATC 5, after the TCMS 6 operation is stopped, that is, after the TCMS 6 is powered off, or after a second time has elapsed since the stop instruction is transferred to the TCMS 6, the control unit 52 The supply of power to the power line D3 is stopped (step S18). Note that the second time> the first time.
[0037]
Each operation of the TCMS 6 and ATC 5 will be described using a flowchart. FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing an operation until the train 3 is made operable in the TCMS 6 according to the present embodiment. The CCU 23 is activated under the control of the ATC 5 (step S21). The CCU 23 controls the BCG 8 of the DC power supply 7 to supply power to the power line D1, and supplies power to the first vehicle device (step S22). The CCU 23 raises the pantograph 10 (step S23) and closes the VCB 11 (step S24). The CCU 23 controls the operations of the main transformer 14, the SIV 12, and the CI 13, and supplies power obtained by converting the voltage of the AC power acquired from the overhead line to the second vehicle device (step S25). Thereby, the TCMS 6 can make the train 3 operable.
[0038]
FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing an operation until the operation of the train 3 is stopped in the TCMS 6 according to the present embodiment. The CCU 23 receives the stop instruction transmitted from the OCC 2 via the ATC 5 and the CN 21 (step S31). The CCU 23 opens the VCB 11 (step S32). Since the supply of power from the pantograph 10 is stopped, the CCU 23 stops the supply of power to the second vehicle device (step S33). The CCU 23 lowers the pantograph 10 (step S34). The CCU 23 controls the BCG 8 of the DC power supply 7 to stop the supply of power to the power line D1, and stops the supply of power to the first vehicle device (step S35). After the first time has elapsed, the CCU 23 stops the operation by turning off the power of the TCMS 6 including itself (step S36). Thereby, TCMS6 can be made into the state which stops operation | movement of the train 3. FIG.
[0039]
FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing an operation until the train 3 can be operated in the ATC 5 according to the present embodiment. In ATC 5, the control unit 52 receives the activation instruction transmitted from the OCC 2 via the communication unit 51 (step S41). The controller 52 controls the BCG 8 of the DC power supply 7 to supply power to the power line D3 and supply power to the TCMS 6 (step S42).
[0040]
FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing an operation until the operation of the train 3 is stopped in the ATC 5 according to the present embodiment. In ATC 5, the control unit 52 receives the stop instruction transmitted from the OCC 2 via the communication unit 51 (step S51). The control unit 52 causes the communication unit 51 to transfer a stop instruction to the TCMS 6 (step S52). The control unit 52 supplies power to the power line D3 to the BCG 8 of the DC power supply 7 after the TCMS 6 turns off the power supply or after the lapse of the second time specified after the stop instruction is transferred to the TCMS6. Stop (step S53).
