Description

本発明は、列車制御装置及び列車制御方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a train control device and a train control method.

新幹線電車や大都市近郊における高密度運転を行う路線においては、運転上の保安の見地から、ATC装置(自動列車制御装置)が具備されている。この装置は、ATC地上装置からレールを介して得られる制限速度情報と、速度発電機のパルス情報などから求められる列車速度を比較し、列車速度が制限速度(以下、信号現示速度という。)を超過している場合、列車の駆動/制動装置に常用最大ブレーキ指令を出力し、列車速度が信号現示速度を下回るように制御する。 A Shinkansen train or a route that performs high-density operation in the suburbs of large cities is equipped with an ATC device (automatic train control device) from the viewpoint of operational security. This device compares the speed limit information obtained from the ATC ground device via the rail with the train speed obtained from the pulse information of the speed generator, etc., and the train speed is the speed limit (hereinafter referred to as the signal display speed). Is exceeded, the service maximum brake command is output to the train driving / braking device, and the train speed is controlled to be lower than the signal display speed.

この制御方法としては、例えば特開平5−76107号公報に記載されているように、ATC装置の信号現示速度と列車速度との速度偏差を算出し、その速度偏差と設定値とを比較し、定速制御、加速制御又はブレーキ制御の何れかを選択して列車速度を制御するものがある。 As this control method, for example, as described in JP-A-5-76107, a speed deviation between the signal display speed of the ATC device and the train speed is calculated, and the speed deviation is compared with a set value. There are some which control train speed by selecting one of constant speed control, acceleration control and brake control.

一方、近年においては、このようなATC装置の下で動作するATO装置(自動列車運転装置)が普及されてきている。 On the other hand, in recent years, an ATO device (automatic train operation device) operating under such an ATC device has become widespread.

この装置は、例えば特開平6−284519号公報に記載されているように、路線の勾配や曲線に応じて設定される恒久速度制限情報に基づき、ATC装置の信号現示速度を超えない範囲で目標パターンを作成して設定し、設定された目標速度パターンと列車速度とを比較して力行(加速)/ブレーキ指令を演算し、列車の駆動/制動装置に与えることで列車の速度を調整し、列車の自動運転を行うものである。 As described in, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 6-284519, this device is based on permanent speed limit information set in accordance with the gradient and curve of the route, within a range not exceeding the signal display speed of the ATC device. Create and set a target pattern, calculate the power running (acceleration) / brake command by comparing the set target speed pattern and the train speed, and adjust the train speed by giving it to the train driving / braking device , Train automatic operation.

しかしながら、朝夕のラッシュ時など列車の運転が高密度になると、列車同士の間隔が短くなり、先行列車が遅延すると後続の列車はさらに先行列車に接近する。ATC装置では、列車同士の衝突防止のため、異なる信号現示速度を持つ所定の長さの複数の閉塞区間を備えていて、先行列車の直後の閉塞区間には後続列車が進入できないようになっており、先行列車との距離が離れるに従って、閉塞区間における信号現示速度が徐々に大きくなるようになっている。 However, when train operation becomes dense, such as during morning and evening rush hours, the interval between trains is shortened, and when the preceding train is delayed, the following train further approaches the preceding train. In the ATC device, in order to prevent collision between trains, a plurality of blocked sections with different signal display speeds of a predetermined length are provided, and subsequent trains cannot enter the closed section immediately after the preceding train. As the distance from the preceding train increases, the signal display speed in the closed section gradually increases.

例えば、図6を参照しながら説明すると、(A)において、在線する3つ先の閉塞区間に先行列車が在線していた場合、次の閉塞区間における信号現示速度は、より先行列車に接近するため小さくなる。その後、(B)に示すように先行列車が進行して4つ先の閉塞区間に移動すると、先行列車との距離が離れるため、在線している閉塞区間の信号現示速度は大きくなるので、ATO装置は信号現示速度に従って列車速度の力行制御を行って加速する。その後、(C)に示すように次の閉塞区間へ移動すると、先行列車が3つ先の閉塞区間に在線しており、より先行列車に接近するため、当該閉塞区間における信号現示速度は小さくなる。従って、ATO装置はこの信号現示速度に従って列車速度を減速制御することになり、ATCブレーキにより急激に減速する。その後、(D)に示すように先行列車が進行して4つ先の閉塞区間に移動すると、先行列車との距離が離れるため、在線している閉塞区間の信号現示速度は大きくなるので、ATO装置は信号現示速度に従って列車速度の力行制御を行って加速する。 For example, referring to FIG. 6, in (A), when a preceding train is present in the next three blocked sections, the signal display speed in the next blocked section is closer to the preceding train. To be smaller. After that, as shown in (B), when the preceding train advances and moves to the fourth blocked section, the distance from the preceding train is increased, so the signal display speed of the existing blocked section increases. The ATO device accelerates by performing power running control of the train speed according to the signal display speed. After that, when moving to the next blockage section as shown in (C), the preceding train is in the three blockage section ahead and approaches the preceding train more, so the signal display speed in the blockage section is small. Become. Therefore, the ATO device performs deceleration control of the train speed according to the signal display speed, and the ATO device decelerates rapidly by the ATC brake. After that, as shown in (D), when the preceding train advances and moves to the next blocked section, the distance from the preceding train increases, so the signal display speed of the blocked section that is on the line increases. The ATO device accelerates by performing power running control of the train speed according to the signal display speed.

このように、朝夕のラッシュ時などで先行列車が遅延すると、ATO装置は、例えば図7に示すように、ATC装置の信号現示速度に従って列車速度の力行制御とブレーキ制御を繰返すことになる。このため、大きなジャーク(加加速度)が発生する等して列車の乗り心地が悪くなり、乗客が転倒する等の事故に繋がる虞があった。 Thus, when the preceding train is delayed, such as during morning and evening rush hours, the ATO device repeats power running control and brake control of the train speed according to the signal display speed of the ATC device, for example, as shown in FIG. For this reason, there is a possibility that a large jerk (jerk acceleration) occurs and the ride comfort of the train is deteriorated, resulting in an accident such as a passenger falling.

本発明は、先行列車の遅延等が発生しても、加速と減速の繰り返しを抑制し、列車の乗り心地を改善して安全性が向上する列車制御装置及び列車制御方法を提供することを課題とする。 It is an object of the present invention to provide a train control device and a train control method that suppress the repetition of acceleration and deceleration, improve the riding comfort of a train, and improve safety even when a delay or the like of a preceding train occurs.

[実施例1]
以下、本発明に基づく実施例1の列車制御装置について、図1を参照して説明する。図1は、本発明の実施例の列車制御装置を示す構成図である。
[Example 1]
Hereinafter, the train control apparatus of Example 1 based on this invention is demonstrated with reference to FIG. FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram illustrating a train control device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

同図において、車両1には、列車制御装置2と、列車制御装置2からの力行/ブレーキ指令に基づいて列車を駆動/制動する駆動/制動装置8が設置されており、車両1は駆動/制動装置8により車輪が駆動/制動されてレール11上を走行する。 In the figure, a vehicle 1 is provided with a train control device 2 and a drive / brake device 8 for driving / braking a train based on a power running / brake command from the train control device 2. The wheel is driven / brake by the braking device 8 and travels on the rail 11.

一方、列車制御装置2は、ATC車上装置3、自動運転装置(以下、ATO装置という。)4、記憶手段5、速度検知手段6、位置検知手段7で構成される。ATC車上装置3は、ATC地上装置(図示せず)からレール11を介して送信される信号現示速度情報を受信すると、当該信号現示速度と、速度検知手段6から得られる列車速度を比較し、列車速度が当該信号現示速度を超過している場合に、駆動/制動装置8にブレーキ指令を出力する。
ATO装置4は、ATC車上装置の下で力行/ブレーキ指令を駆動/制動装置8に出力するものであり、地上マーカ9からの情報をもとに受信する位置検出手段7から得られる列車位置情報の他、速度検知手段6の速度情報(例えば速度発電機のパルスのカウント値)や速度情報を積分して得られる列車の移動距離とに基づいて記憶手段5を参照し、記憶手段5に記憶された当該列車位置における恒久速度制限データを取得し、ATC信号に基づく制限速度と比較しながら列車を走行させる。
On the other hand, the train control device 2 includes an ATC on-board device 3, an automatic driving device (hereinafter referred to as an ATO device) 4, a storage unit 5, a speed detection unit 6, and a position detection unit 7. When receiving the signal indication speed information transmitted from the ATC ground device (not shown) via the rail 11, the ATC on-board device 3 determines the signal indication speed and the train speed obtained from the speed detection means 6. In comparison, when the train speed exceeds the signal display speed, a brake command is output to the driving / braking device 8.
The ATO device 4 outputs a power running / brake command to the driving / braking device 8 under the ATC on-board device, and is a train position obtained from the position detecting means 7 that receives the information from the ground marker 9. In addition to the information, the storage means 5 is referred to based on the speed information of the speed detection means 6 (for example, the count value of the speed generator pulse) and the travel distance of the train obtained by integrating the speed information. The stored permanent speed limit data at the train position is acquired, and the train is run while being compared with the speed limit based on the ATC signal.

一方、記憶手段5には、夫々の閉塞区間の信号現示速度情報と閉塞長(閉塞区間の距離)も記憶されている。すなわち、在線する閉塞区間の信号現示速度は、先行列車との距離により変化するようになっている。一例としては、在線する閉塞区間に対し、6つ先迄の閉塞区間に先行列車がいないときを最大値(通常値)として60km/h、5つ先の閉塞区間に先行列車がいるときを50km/hというように順次小さくしていき、2つ先の閉塞区間に先行列車がいるときを20km/h、次の閉塞区間に先行列車がいるときを0(停止信号現示)とする。従って、記憶手段5に記憶させる夫々の閉塞区間における信号現示速度情報としては、例えば最大値(通常値)や速度変化パターンとする。 On the other hand, the storage means 5 also stores signal display speed information and blockage length (blockage interval distance) of each blockage section. That is, the signal display speed of the blockage section that is present changes according to the distance from the preceding train. As an example, the maximum value (normal value) is 60 km / h when there is no preceding train in the closed section up to six ahead of the existing closed section, and 50 km when there is a preceding train in the fifth closed section The time is successively reduced as / h, and 20 km / h is set when the preceding train is in the second blocked section, and 0 (stop signal is displayed) when the preceding train is in the next blocked section. Accordingly, the signal display speed information in each block section stored in the storage unit 5 is, for example, a maximum value (normal value) or a speed change pattern.

更に、本実施例1のATO装置4は、例えばATC車上装置3が備える受信手段で、在線する閉塞区間の信号現示速度よりも次の閉塞区間の信号現示速度の方が小さいときに得られる前方予告信号が受信され、且つ先行列車の進行により在線する閉塞区間の信号現示速度が大きくなったときに、その信号現示速度を超えない範囲において、速度検知手段6より得られる列車速度を維持するように、駆動/制動装置8の定速制御を行う。 Furthermore, the ATO device 4 of the first embodiment is a receiving means provided in the ATC on-board device 3, for example, and when the signal display speed of the next blockage section is smaller than the signal display speed of the next blockage section. A train obtained from the speed detection means 6 within a range that does not exceed the signal display speed when the obtained front warning signal is received and the signal display speed of the blockage section that is in line is increased by the advance of the preceding train. The constant speed control of the driving / braking device 8 is performed so as to maintain the speed.

次に、実施例1における列車制御装置の具体的な列車制御の動作について、図2を用いて説明する。図2は本発明の実施例1の列車制御装置の動作を説明するための図である。 Next, a specific train control operation of the train control device according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 2 is a diagram for explaining the operation of the train control apparatus according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

同図によると、(A)において、在線する3つ先の閉塞区間に先行列車が在線していた場合、次の閉塞区間における信号現示速度は、より先行列車に接近するため小さくなる。その後、(B)に示すように先行列車が進行して4つ先の閉塞区間に移動すると、先行列車との距離が離れるため、在線している閉塞区間の信号現示速度は大きくなるが、ATC車上装置3に備える受信手段が前方予告信号を受信しているため、ATO装置4は現行の列車速度を維持するように定速制御を行う。その後、(C)に示すように次の閉塞区間へ移動すると、先行列車が3つ先の閉塞区間に在線しており、より先行列車に接近するため、当該閉塞区間における信号現示速度は小さくなるが、(B)に示したように列車速度は定速制御されていることから当該閉塞区間における信号現示速度を超えていないので、ATCブレーキは掛からない。一方、ATO装置4は、当該閉塞区間における信号現示速度を超えない範囲において、引続いて現行の列車速度を維持するように定速制御を行う。その後、(D)に示すように先行列車が進行して4つ先の閉塞区間に移動すると、先行列車との距離が離れるため、在線している閉塞区間の信号現示速度は大きくなるが、ATC車上装置3に備える受信手段が前方予告信号を受信しているため、ATO装置4は現行の列車速度を維持するように定速制御を行う。 According to the same figure, in (A), when the preceding train is present in the next three blocked sections, the signal display speed in the next blocked section becomes smaller because it approaches the preceding train. After that, as shown in (B), when the preceding train advances and moves to the next blocked section, because the distance from the preceding train is increased, the signal display speed of the blocked section that is on the line increases. Since the receiving means provided in the ATC on-board device 3 receives the forward notice signal, the ATO device 4 performs constant speed control so as to maintain the current train speed. After that, when moving to the next blockage section as shown in (C), the preceding train is in the three blockage section ahead and approaches the preceding train more, so the signal display speed in the blockage section is small. However, as shown in (B), since the train speed is controlled at a constant speed, the ATC brake is not applied because the signal display speed in the closed section is not exceeded. On the other hand, the ATO device 4 performs constant speed control so as to continue to maintain the current train speed in a range that does not exceed the signal display speed in the closed section. After that, as shown in (D), when the preceding train advances and moves to the fourth blocked section, the distance from the preceding train increases, so the signal display speed of the blocked section that is on the line increases. Since the receiving means provided in the ATC on-board device 3 receives the forward notice signal, the ATO device 4 performs constant speed control so as to maintain the current train speed.

このように、実施例1の列車制御装置によれば、先行列車が遅延しているような場合であっても、図6で示したような従来の列車制御装置のように力行制御とブレーキ制御を繰返し、すなわち加速と減速を繰返すことにより乗り心地が悪くなることが無くなると共に、乗客が転倒する等の事故の発生を未然に防止することができる。また、先行列車が停止している場合も、比較的小さい列車速度からのATCブレーキ動作となるので、力行(加速)制御状態からのATCブレーキ動作に比べてジャークが小さくなり、乗り心地の悪化を抑制することができる。 Thus, according to the train control device of the first embodiment, even when the preceding train is delayed, power running control and brake control are performed as in the conventional train control device as shown in FIG. By repeating the above, that is, by repeating acceleration and deceleration, it is possible to prevent the ride comfort from being deteriorated and to prevent an accident such as a passenger falling. Also, even when the preceding train is stopped, the ATC brake operation is performed from a relatively small train speed, so the jerk is smaller than the ATC brake operation from the power running (acceleration) control state, and the ride comfort is deteriorated. Can be suppressed.

尚、ATO装置4における列車速度の制御については、上記実施例に限定されるものではない。例えば、図3を参照して説明すると、在線する閉塞区間の信号現示速度V1からV2に大きくなって且つ受信手段で前方予告信号を受信したときであっても、列車速度vと信号現示速度V1、V2との関係から、次のように列車速度vを制御しても良い。 In addition, about the control of the train speed in the ATO apparatus 4, it is not limited to the said Example. For example, referring to FIG. 3, even when the signal display speed V1 of the existing blockage section increases from V1 to V2 and a forward warning signal is received by the receiving means, the train speed v and the signal display are shown. From the relationship between the speeds V1 and V2, the train speed v may be controlled as follows.

(1)v≦V1ならば、V1を目標として列車速度vの力行(加速)制御を行う。 (1) If v ≦ V1, power running (acceleration) control of the train speed v is performed with V1 as a target.

(2)V1<v≦V2ならば、列車速度vを維持するように定速制御を行う。 (2) If V1 <v ≦ V2, constant speed control is performed so as to maintain the train speed v.

(3)v>V2ならば、V2を目標として列車速度vのブレーキ(減速)制御を行う。 (3) If v> V2, the brake (deceleration) control of the train speed v is performed with V2 as a target.

このようにしても、加速と減速を繰返すことにより乗り心地が悪くなることが無くなると共に、乗客が転倒する等の事故の発生を未然に防止することができる。また、先行列車が停止している場合も、比較的小さい列車速度からのATCブレーキ動作となるので、力行(加速)制御状態からのATCブレーキ動作に比べてジャークが小さくなり、乗り心地の悪化を抑制することができる。   Even if it does in this way, while a ride comfort does not worsen by repeating acceleration and deceleration, generation | occurrence | production of accidents, such as a passenger falling, can be prevented beforehand. Also, even when the preceding train is stopped, the ATC brake operation is performed from a relatively small train speed, so the jerk is smaller than the ATC brake operation from the power running (acceleration) control state, and the ride comfort is deteriorated. Can be suppressed.

更に、ATO装置4が力行制御をする際、列車速度を大きくするための駆動制御による加速度と勾配による加速度との総和が予め設定された基準加速度を超えないように、駆動/制動装置8に出力する力行指令を抑制するようにしたり、在線する閉塞区間における信号現示速度と列車速度との差が小さい場合にも当該差に応じて力行指令を抑制するようにしてもよい。 Further, when the ATO device 4 performs the power running control, an output to the drive / brake device 8 is made so that the sum of the acceleration by the drive control for increasing the train speed and the acceleration by the gradient does not exceed a preset reference acceleration. The power running command may be suppressed or the power running command may be suppressed in accordance with the difference even when the difference between the signal display speed and the train speed in the existing closed section is small.

このようにすれば、力行制御時における乗り心地が向上し、更に列車の乗り心地の改善を図ることができる。 In this way, the ride comfort during powering control can be improved, and further the ride comfort of the train can be improved.

[実施例2]
列車を運行するに際し、列車の乗り心地を改善して安全性を向上させると同時に、列車ダイヤの乱れを抑制することも必要である。
[Example 2]
When operating a train, it is necessary to improve the ride comfort of the train to improve safety and to suppress disturbance of the train schedule.

このため、図1における列車制御装置に対し、実施例2におけるATO装置4では、図3を参照して説明すると、位置検知手段7で検知された列車位置から在線する閉塞区間の出口までの距離lを求め、この距離lを速度検知手段6で検知された列車速度vで除することにより、当該閉塞区間の出口に到達するまでの時間tを算出する。そして、在線する閉塞区間における信号現示速度がV1からV2に大きくなったとき、予め設定された基準時間Tと比較し、次のように列車速度vを制御する。   For this reason, in the ATO device 4 in the second embodiment with respect to the train control device in FIG. 1, the distance from the train position detected by the position detection means 7 to the exit of the closed section existing in the line will be described with reference to FIG. 3. l is obtained, and the distance t is divided by the train speed v detected by the speed detecting means 6 to calculate the time t until the exit of the closed section is reached. Then, when the signal display speed in the blockage section where the line is present increases from V1 to V2, the train speed v is controlled as follows in comparison with a preset reference time T.

(4) t<Tならば、列車速度vを維持するように定速制御を行う。 (4) If t <T, constant speed control is performed so as to maintain the train speed v.

(5) t≧Tならば、信号現示速度V2を目標に列車速度vの力行制御を行う。 (5) If t ≧ T, the power running control of the train speed v is performed with the signal display speed V2 as a target.

すなわち、ATO装置4は、現閉塞区間の信号現示速度がV2のとき、ATC車上装置3の受信手段で前方予告信号が受信されたとしても、次閉塞区間における信号現示速度がVa、Vb、Vc、Vdの何れであるのかは判別がつかない。このため、現閉塞区間の出口までの到達時間が比較的短いとき、次閉塞区間における信号現示速度がVc又はVdであったとすると、現閉塞区間の信号現示速度V2を目標に力行制御を行っていれば急激にATCブレーキがかかって減速制御が行われるため、乗り心地が悪化し、乗客の転倒事故に繋がる虞がある。   That is, when the signal display speed of the current blockage section is V2, the ATO device 4 has the signal display speed Va in the next blockage section, even if the front notice signal is received by the receiving means of the ATC on-board device 3. It is not possible to determine whether it is Vb, Vc, or Vd. Therefore, when the arrival time to the exit of the current closed section is relatively short, if the signal display speed in the next closed section is Vc or Vd, the power running control is performed with the signal display speed V2 in the current closed section as a target. If this is the case, the ATC brake is suddenly applied and deceleration control is performed, so that the ride comfort is deteriorated, which may lead to a passenger falling accident.

一方、閉塞区間の出口までの到達時間が比較的長いとき、次閉塞区間における信号現示速度がVa又はVbであったとすると、現閉塞区間で現行の列車速度vを維持するように定速制御を行っていれば現閉塞区間の出口に到達するまでの時間を無駄に長くしてしまい、列車ダイヤの乱れが発生する要因となる。 On the other hand, when the arrival time to the exit of the closed section is relatively long, assuming that the signal display speed in the next closed section is Va or Vb, constant speed control is performed so as to maintain the current train speed v in the current closed section. If this is done, the time to reach the exit of the current blockage section will be unnecessarily lengthened, which will cause disturbance of the train schedule.

これに対し、実施例2の列車制御装置では、上述した(4)について図4(a)を参照して説明すると、在線する閉塞区間の出口までの到達時間が比較的短いとき、すなわち信号現示速度V2を目標として列車速度を加速している途中で次の閉塞区間に達してしまうようなとき、ATO装置4は力行制御を行わずに現行の列車速度vを維持するように定速制御を行う。 On the other hand, in the train control device of the second embodiment, the above-described (4) will be described with reference to FIG. 4 (a). When the arrival time to the exit of the existing blockage section is relatively short, that is, the signal The constant speed control is performed so that the ATO device 4 maintains the current train speed v without performing the power running control when the next blockage section is reached while the train speed is being accelerated with the indicated speed V2 as a target. I do.

また、上述した(5)について図4(b)を参照して説明すると、在線する閉塞区間の出口までの到達時間が比較的長いとき、すなわち列車速度を信号現示速度V2までの加速を次の閉塞区間に到達するまでに完了できるようなとき、ATO装置4は信号現示速度V2を目標として力行制御を行う。   The above-described (5) will be described with reference to FIG. 4B. When the arrival time to the exit of the existing blockage section is relatively long, that is, the train speed is increased to the signal display speed V2. The ATO device 4 performs power running control with the signal display speed V2 as a target.

このように、上述した(4)、(5)のような現閉塞区間の出口までの到達時間の大きさに応じて列車の速度制御を行えば、乗り心地の改善を図れるだけでなく、列車ダイヤの乱れを抑制することもできる。   Thus, if the speed control of the train is performed according to the arrival time to the exit of the current closed section as described in (4) and (5) above, not only the ride comfort can be improved, but also the train Disturbance of the diamond can also be suppressed.

ここで、基準時間Tは現閉塞区間の出口までに加速を完了できる時間とするのが望ましく、例えば大きくなった信号現示速度V2に列車速度vが到達するまでの時間、すなわち、(V2−v)を所定の加速度(例えば、平坦でフル力行制御を行っているときの加速度)で除する時間とする。また、力行トルクが整定するまでの時間としてもよい。このようにすれば、ジャークの発生が抑えられ、更に乗り心地を改善することができる。   Here, the reference time T is preferably a time during which acceleration can be completed before the exit of the current blockage section. For example, the time until the train speed v reaches the increased signal display speed V2, that is, (V2- v) is a time divided by a predetermined acceleration (for example, acceleration when flat and full power running control is performed). Moreover, it is good also as time until power running torque settles. In this way, the generation of jerk can be suppressed and the ride comfort can be further improved.

また、駅間の何処の場所に位置する閉塞区間であるかに基づいて基準時間Tを定めておき、予め記憶手段5に夫々の閉塞区間毎の基準時間Tを記憶させておいても良い。更に、現閉塞区間の出口で力行制御中にATCブレーキがかかったら記憶手段5で記憶させた基準時間Tを大きくし、逆に現閉塞区間の出口で信号現示速度が小さくならなかったら記憶手段5で記憶させた基準時間Tを小さくするように自動調整する手段を備えても良い。   Further, the reference time T may be determined based on where the blockage section is located between the stations, and the storage unit 5 may store the reference time T for each blockage section in advance. Further, if the ATC brake is applied during the power running control at the exit of the current closed section, the reference time T stored in the storage means 5 is increased. Conversely, if the signal display speed does not decrease at the exit of the current closed section, the storage means. Means for automatically adjusting the reference time T stored in step 5 may be provided.

このようにすれば、より細やかな列車の速度制御を行うことができるので、更に乗り心地を改善することができる。   In this way, since the train speed can be controlled more precisely, the riding comfort can be further improved.

更に、ATO装置4が力行制御をする際、列車速度を大きくするための駆動制御による加速度と勾配による加速度との総和が予め設定された基準加速度を超えないように、駆動/制動装置8に出力する力行指令を抑制するようにしたり、在線する閉塞区間における信号現示速度と列車速度との差が小さい場合にも当該差に応じて力行指令を抑制するようにしてもよい。 Further, when the ATO device 4 performs the power running control, an output to the drive / brake device 8 is made so that the sum of the acceleration by the drive control for increasing the train speed and the acceleration by the gradient does not exceed a preset reference acceleration. The power running command may be suppressed or the power running command may be suppressed in accordance with the difference even when the difference between the signal display speed and the train speed in the existing closed section is small.

このようにすれば、力行制御時における乗り心地が向上し、更に列車の乗り心地の改善を図ることができる。 In this way, the ride comfort during powering control can be improved, and further the ride comfort of the train can be improved.

[実施例3]
上述した実施例1及び実施例2では、先行列車の遅延等により、在線する閉塞区間における信号現示速度が変化したとき、適切に列車の速度を制御する列車制御装置を説明したが、予め記憶手段5に記憶された夫々の閉塞区間の信号現示速度をもとに、列車速度を制御するようにしても良い。
[Example 3]
In the first embodiment and the second embodiment described above, the train control device that appropriately controls the train speed when the signal display speed in the blocked section where the line is located has changed due to the delay of the preceding train, etc. is stored in advance. The train speed may be controlled based on the signal display speed of each block section stored in the means 5.

すなわち、実施例2で説明した列車制御装置との相違点について、実施例3におけるATO装置4では、図3を参照して説明すると、現閉塞区間における通常の信号現示速度をV2、次閉塞区間における通常の信号現示速度を現閉塞区間の通常の信号現示速度V2よりも小さいVcとしたとき、次のように列車速度vを制御する。 That is, with respect to the difference from the train control device described in the second embodiment, the ATO device 4 in the third embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. When the normal signal display speed in the section is set to Vc smaller than the normal signal display speed V2 in the current closed section, the train speed v is controlled as follows.

(6) t<Tならば、次閉塞区間の信号現示速度Vcを目標として列車速度vの制御を行う。 (6) If t <T, the train speed v is controlled with the signal display speed Vc of the next blockage section as a target.

(7) t≧Tならば、現閉塞区間の信号現示速度V2を目標として列車速度vの制御を行う。 (7) If t ≧ T, the train speed v is controlled with the signal display speed V2 in the currently closed section as a target.

すなわち、ATO装置4は、現閉塞区間の出口までの到達時間が比較的短いとき、上述した(6)のように、予め次閉塞区間における信号現示速度Vcを目標として列車速度vが制御されるので、現閉塞区間の出口において力行制御又はブレーキ制御が行われたとしても、比較的小さな速度制御で抑えることができるので、乗り心地を改善することができる。   That is, when the arrival time to the exit of the current blockage section is relatively short, the ATO device 4 controls the train speed v in advance with the signal display speed Vc in the next blockage section as a target, as described above (6). Therefore, even if power running control or brake control is performed at the exit of the current closed section, it can be suppressed with relatively small speed control, so that the riding comfort can be improved.

一方、閉塞区間の出口までの到達時間が比較的長いとき、上述した(7)のように、現閉塞区間における信号現示速度V2を目標として列車速度vが制御されるので、現閉塞区間の出口に到達するまでの時間を無駄に長くすることはなく、列車ダイヤの乱れを抑制することができる。 On the other hand, when the arrival time to the exit of the blockage section is relatively long, the train speed v is controlled with the signal display speed V2 in the current blockage section as a target as described in (7) above. The time required to reach the exit is not unnecessarily prolonged, and disturbance of the train schedule can be suppressed.

更に、ATC車上装置3の受信手段における前方予告信号の受信の有無に基づいて、列車速度の制御を行うようにすることもできる。   Furthermore, it is also possible to control the train speed based on whether or not the front notice signal is received by the receiving means of the ATC on-board device 3.

例えば、前方予告信号が受信され、且つ在線する閉塞区間の信号現示速度がV1からV2に大きくなり、当該信号現示速度V2が記憶手段5で記憶されている信号現示速度と等しく、また次の閉塞区間における記憶手段5で記憶された信号現示速度V3がV2より小さいとする。このとき、ATO装置4は、受信している前方予告信号は先行列車の遅延等による臨時のものではなく、次の閉塞区間の信号現示速度がV3であると認識して列車速度を制御することもできる。   For example, the front notice signal is received and the signal display speed of the blockage section where the line is present increases from V1 to V2, and the signal display speed V2 is equal to the signal display speed stored in the storage means 5, and It is assumed that the signal display speed V3 stored in the storage means 5 in the next closed section is smaller than V2. At this time, the ATO device 4 controls the train speed by recognizing that the received forward warning signal is not a temporary signal due to the delay of the preceding train, and the signal display speed of the next blockage section is V3. You can also

すなわち、在線する閉塞区間の出口までの到達時間が基準時間より小さいとき、ATO装置4は、在線する閉塞区間における大きくなる前の信号現示速度V1又は次の閉塞区間の信号現示速度として記憶されているV3の内の何れか大きい方を目標として列車速度の力行制御を行う。このようにすれば、実施例2の列車制御装置における(4)で説明した列車速度制御よりも列車ダイヤの乱れを抑制しながら、乗り心地を改善することもできる。   In other words, when the arrival time to the exit of the existing blockage section is smaller than the reference time, the ATO device 4 stores the signal display speed V1 before the increase in the existing blockage section or the signal display speed of the next blockage section. The power running control of the train speed is performed with the target of V3 being larger, which is larger. If it does in this way, riding comfort can also be improved, suppressing the disturbance of a train diagram rather than the train speed control demonstrated in (4) in the train control apparatus of Example 2. FIG.
