Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Field of Application of the Invention] The present invention relates to a system in which a railway course setting device is composed of different types of devices, and in particular, switching of the control source does not affect the course setting state. Regarding the method.

[Background of the invention]

Conventionally, when a railway route setting device is composed of different types of devices, an external device is installed to store and hold the route setting information from the device that is the control source separately from those devices, and the device that is the control source is Even if there is a switch, the state of the final route is not affected by the switch.

[Purpose of the invention]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a route setting device that can maintain continuity in route output by system switching without requiring an external holding device and without affecting route output due to switching of different types of control sources. be.

[Summary of the invention]

With the development of microcomputers in recent years, various control devices are now composed of microcomputers and software, and railway route control equipment also includes operation management systems and automatic route setting devices as backup devices. are increasingly being constructed using minicomputers or microcomputers. In such a case, it is not particularly difficult to obtain the information that the other party's device is trying to output.

That is, it is also possible to perform data transmission between processing devices. On the other hand, the output of a computer is generally self-maintained in units of bytes or multiples thereof, but if the output form is such that one path corresponds to one point, a backup type device will By obtaining the output information of the device that is the output system and matching the output state of the own device to the output system, it is possible to change the output system without having an external holding device without affecting the path state. This means that it is possible to switch without having to give any input.

[Embodiments of the invention]

Examples of the present invention will be described below.

FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the invention.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a processing device of a traffic management system, which sets a route according to a train schedule stored in this device. 2 is an automatic route setting device that sets a route based on a route setting pattern, destination, and departure time set from the operation panel 12. Reference numeral 3 denotes an output device of the traffic control system, which is a self-holding type, and each point corresponds to one route. 4 is an output device of the automatic course setting device and is similar to 3. Reference numerals 5 and 6 are input devices for inputting train movement information. 7 is a manual course setting board. Reference numeral 8 denotes a control source changeover switch, which switches between the output of the traffic management system and the automatic route setting device. 9 also represents a control source changeover switch, which changes between automatic and manual output. 10 is
This is a master station of the CTC device, and 11 is a slave station of the CTC device. 13 is a data transmission device that can send data bidirectionally between the traffic management system and the automatic route setting device.

Next, the operation of the device will be explained. When the traffic management system is the output source, the manual/automatic changeover switch 9 is set to the automatic side, and the control source changeover switch 8 is set to the traffic management side. The route output operation in this case will be explained. When the traffic management system outputs to the traffic management system output device 3 in order to set a route according to the timetable, the route information output by itself is sent to the automatic route via the data transmission device 13 as shown in FIG. Pass to setting device. The automatic route setting device performs its own output date and outputs it to the output device 4 as shown in FIG. The same applies to the operation when the automatic route setting device is the output source.

As a result of the above, the state of the output device that has become a backup system is equivalent to the output system, and even if the output system is switched, the state of the path will not change. All you have to do is output according to the route output request generated within the system.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, according to the present invention, continuity of route output can be achieved by system switching without providing an external holding device.

Claims (1)

[Scope of Claims] 1. A route setting device including a traffic management system X, an automatic route setting system Y, and a data transmission device 13, wherein the traffic management system The automatic route setting system Y has an automatic route setting device output device 4, and an automatic route setting device operation panel 12.
The route is automatically set based on the data input from the operation management system X and automatic route setting system Y.
are connected to each other by a data transmission device 13, and when one of them is the control source, the other constitutes a backup system, and the control source can be switched by the control source changeover switch 8. If one of the backup systems is the control source, it outputs the route information to its own output device, and transmits the backup data to the other backup system via the data transmission device 13, and the other backup system is the control source. A path setting device that outputs the path information of the originally input backup data to its own output device.
