Description

碍子検出装置及び碍子検出方法Insulator detecting device and insulator detecting method
 本発明は、碍子検出装置及び碍子検出方法に関する。 The present invention relates to an insulator detecting device and an insulator detecting method.
 電気鉄道の設備としては、主に架線(以下、トロリ線)と軌道(以下、レール)とが挙げられる。これらはそれぞれ鉄道を運行するにあたり重要な保守設備となっている。 The electric railway facilities mainly include overhead lines (hereinafter referred to as trolley lines) and tracks (hereinafter referred to as rails). Each of these is an important maintenance facility for operating the railway.
 トロリ線は、電気鉄道車両を運用していく中で電気鉄道車両が通過するたびに集電装置と接触する。そのためトロリ線は徐々に摩耗していき、交換をしない場合は最終的に破断して事故を招くおそれがある。また、レールは、電車の運行によって曲がり、ゆがみ、傷、摩耗等が発生し、これらの進行を放置してしまうと電気鉄道車両の脱線など事故を招くおそれがある。 The trolley line comes into contact with the current collector every time the electric railway vehicle passes while operating the electric railway vehicle. For this reason, the trolley wire gradually wears out, and if it is not replaced, it may eventually break and cause an accident. In addition, the rails are bent, distorted, scratched, worn, etc. due to train operation, and if these progresses are left unattended, there is a risk of causing an accident such as derailment of an electric railway vehicle.
 このようなことから、トロリ線やレールの摩耗等による要注意箇所を迅速に把握し、これに対応するために、トロリ線やレールの要注意箇所の位置(例えば、ある地点から何キロ走行した位置に要注意箇所が存在する等)の情報を特定することは保守管理の面から重要な事項となっている。 Because of this, in order to quickly grasp the point of caution due to wear on the trolley wire or rail, and to respond to this, the position of the point of caution on the trolley wire or rail (for example, how many kilometers you traveled from a certain point) It is an important matter from the viewpoint of maintenance and management to specify information such as the location that requires attention at the location.
 トロリ線やレール等の設備の保守を行う場合、保守専用車両や軌陸車などが用いられており、検測した結果、要注意箇所が検出された場合はそのデータを取得したときの車両の位置から要注意箇所の位置を推定することが行われている。 When performing maintenance on equipment such as trolley wires and rails, maintenance vehicles and track-and-rail vehicles are used, and if a point of caution is detected as a result of inspection, the position of the vehicle when the data was acquired The position of a point requiring attention is estimated from the above.
 ここで、車両の位置は地上に設置された支持物の位置を検知することで把握することができ、この場合、支持物の検知は非常に重要となる。支持物は、トンネル区間と明かり区間とで形状が異なり、トンネル区間では支持物と架線の間に絶縁のための碍子が設けられている。つまり、トンネル区間においては碍子を検出することで間接的に支持物を検出することができる。 Here, the position of the vehicle can be grasped by detecting the position of the support installed on the ground. In this case, the detection of the support is very important. The shape of the support differs between the tunnel section and the light section, and an insulator is provided between the support and the overhead line in the tunnel section. That is, in the tunnel section, the support can be detected indirectly by detecting the insulator.
 従来、碍子を検出する技術として、検測車の屋根の上部にレーザ光源及びビデオカメラを設置し、レーザ光源からの光束をトロリ線、剛体トロリ線、及び碍子をカバーする幅で発生させることによって得られるスリット像をビデオカメラによって撮像し、画像処理を行うことで碍子を検出する剛体架線支持碍子の検出装置が知られている(例えば、下記特許文献1参照)。 Conventionally, as a technique for detecting an insulator, a laser light source and a video camera are installed on the top of the roof of the inspection vehicle, and a light beam from the laser light source is generated with a width that covers the trolley wire, rigid trolley wire, and insulator. 2. Description of the Related Art A rigid body support insulator detecting device that detects an insulator by capturing an obtained slit image with a video camera and performing image processing is known (for example, see Patent Document 1 below).
 一方、車両の屋根上に設置された測域センサによりトロリ線を測定し、得られた測定結果に基づいて演算装置によりトロリ線の高さや偏位等を算出するようにしたトロリ線検測装置も知られている(例えば、下記特許文献2参照)。 On the other hand, a trolley wire measuring device that measures a trolley wire by a range sensor installed on the roof of a vehicle and calculates the height, displacement, etc. of the trolley wire by an arithmetic device based on the obtained measurement result Is also known (see, for example, Patent Document 2 below).

 図1Aおよび図1Bに示すように、本実施例に係る碍子検出装置は、車両1の屋根上にトロリ線4を測定可能に設置された測域センサ2と、車両1の内部に設置された演算装置3とを備えて構成されている。
 また、図2に碍子の一例を示す。図2において、5は支持物、6は碍子、7は支持サドル、8は剛体架線である。
As shown in FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B, the insulator detecting device according to the present embodiment is installed on the roof of the vehicle 1 so that the trolley wire 4 can be measured, and installed in the vehicle 1. And an arithmetic unit 3.
FIG. 2 shows an example of an insulator. In FIG. 2, 5 is a support, 6 is a lever, 7 is a support saddle, and 8 is a rigid overhead wire.
 測域センサ2は、レーザ光を車両1の進行方向に平行な軸周りで放射線状に投光し、その反射光を受光することによって測定対象物までの距離を測定するものである。本実施例では、測域センサ2は図1Aおよび図1Bに示す測定範囲A(スキャン角度270°)を1080ステップでスキャンするものとし、これにより角度分解能ωは0.25°となっている。 The range sensor 2 measures the distance to the measurement object by projecting a laser beam in a radial pattern around an axis parallel to the traveling direction of the vehicle 1 and receiving the reflected light. In this embodiment, the range sensor 2 scans the measurement range A (scan angle 270 °) shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B in 1080 steps, and the angular resolution ω is 0.25 °.
 演算装置3は測域センサ2による測定結果に基づいてトロリ線4の高さDHや偏位DB等を算出する。図3に示すように、演算装置3は、架線位置算出部3a、架線周囲データ点数計測部3b、碍子判定処理部3c及びメモリ3dを備えている。 Calculation unit 3 calculates the height D H and offset D B, etc. of the trolley wire 4 based on the measurement result by the range sensor 2. As illustrated in FIG. 3, the arithmetic device 3 includes an overhead line position calculation unit 3 a, an overhead line surrounding data point measurement unit 3 b, an insulator determination processing unit 3 c, and a memory 3 d.
 架線位置算出部3aは、測域センサ2により測定範囲Aをスキャンして得られるデータ(角度及び距離。以下、測域センサデータという)を取得し、この測域センサデータを基に架線位置(高さDH及び偏位DB等)を算出する。ここで、図1Aおよび図1B中に示す符号Bは、架線位置を算出する際、測定範囲A内に、トロリ線4の高さ方向及び水平方向の偏位に基づいて設定される架線検出領域である。なお、架線位置の計測は既知の手法(例えば、上記特許文献2の段落0032~0056等参照)を用いるものとし、ここでの詳細な説明は省略する。 The overhead line position calculation unit 3a acquires data (angle and distance; hereinafter referred to as range sensor data) obtained by scanning the measurement range A with the range sensor 2, and based on the range sensor data, the overhead line position ( Height D H and displacement D B ). Here, reference numeral B shown in FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B indicates an overhead line detection region that is set in the measurement range A based on the deviation in the height direction and the horizontal direction of the trolley wire 4 when calculating the overhead line position. It is. The overhead line position is measured using a known method (for example, see paragraphs 0032 to 0056 of Patent Document 2 above), and detailed description thereof is omitted here.
 架線周囲データ点数計測部3bは、架線位置算出部3aで求めた架線位置を基準として、高さ、偏位の範囲を指定して碍子検出領域C(図2参照)を決定し、架線位置データからこの碍子検出領域C内のレーザデータ数(以下、データ点数と称する)を計測して、図5及び図7に示すような剛体架線8まで含めた塊のデータ点数を求める。この処理は、所定のライン分(例えば、数千ライン分)のスキャンデータに対してまとめて行う。
 なお、碍子検出領域Cは剛体架線8の位置や形状、及び天井までの距離に応じて、例えば、トロリ線4の位置を(0,0)として相対的に原点(x0,y0)を指定するとともに幅W及び高さHを設定することにより決定する。なお、x0及び幅Wは碍子検出領域Cの偏位方向の範囲内に少なくとも碍子6が含まれるように設定し、y0及び高さHは碍子検出領域Cの上下方向の範囲がトロリ線4よりも低い位置から碍子6よりも高くかつ天井よりも低い位置までの範囲となるように設定するものとする。
The overhead wire surrounding data point measurement unit 3b determines the insulator detection region C (see FIG. 2) by designating the height and deviation range with reference to the overhead wire position obtained by the overhead wire position calculation unit 3a, and the overhead wire position data From this, the number of laser data in the insulator detection area C (hereinafter referred to as the number of data points) is measured, and the number of data points of the lump including the rigid body wire 8 as shown in FIGS. 5 and 7 is obtained. This process is performed collectively for scan data for a predetermined line (for example, several thousand lines).
Note that the insulator detection region C has a relative origin (x 0 , y 0 ) with the position of the trolley wire 4 being (0, 0), for example, depending on the position and shape of the rigid overhead wire 8 and the distance to the ceiling. It is determined by specifying and setting the width W and height H. X 0 and width W are set so that at least the insulator 6 is included in the range of the displacement direction of the insulator detection region C, and y 0 and height H are the trolley lines in the vertical direction of the insulator detection region C. It is set to be a range from a position lower than 4 to a position higher than the insulator 6 and lower than the ceiling.
 碍子判定処理部3cは、架線周囲データ点数計測部3bで求めたデータ点数に基づいて碍子6を検出する。すなわち、碍子検出領域C内のデータ点数は、図4及び図5に示すように剛体架線8のみの場合(碍子6が存在しない場合)にトロリ線4の周囲で得られるデータ点数に対し、図6及び図7に示すように碍子6が存在する場合にトロリ線4の周囲で得られるデータ点数が多くなる傾向がある。碍子判定処理部3cではこの傾向を利用して碍子6を検出する。
 具体的には、所定のライン分の碍子検出領域C内にあるデータ点数の中央値m及び標準偏差sを求める。判定するラインをi番目のライン、i番目のラインのデータ点数をDiとすると、下式(1)を満たすとき、i番目のラインには碍子6があると判定する。
 Di>m+(decision coefficient)×s …(1)

 次に、図8を用いて本実施例に係る碍子検出装置による処理について簡単に説明する。
 図8に示すように、本実施例において碍子6の検出を行う際は、まず、測域センサ2によって取得した距離データを収集し(ステップS1)、架線位置算出部3aにより収集した距離データに基づいてトロリ線4の位置を算出する(ステップS2)。続いて、架線位置算出部3aにより算出したトロリ線4の位置に基づいて架線周囲データ点数計測部3bによりトロリ線4の周囲のデータ点数を計測し(ステップS3)、計測した所定のライン分のデータ点数に基づいて碍子判定処理部3cにより碍子6を検出する(ステップS4)。
Next, processing by the insulator detection apparatus according to the present embodiment will be briefly described with reference to FIG.
As shown in FIG. 8, when detecting the insulator 6 in this embodiment, first, the distance data acquired by the range sensor 2 is collected (step S1), and the distance data collected by the overhead line position calculation unit 3a is collected. Based on this, the position of the trolley wire 4 is calculated (step S2). Subsequently, the number of data points around the trolley wire 4 is measured by the overhead wire surrounding data point measuring unit 3b based on the position of the trolley wire 4 calculated by the overhead line position calculating unit 3a (step S3), An insulator 6 is detected by the insulator determination processing unit 3c based on the number of data points (step S4).
 このように構成される本実施例に係る碍子検出装置及び碍子検出方法によれば、一軸走査型の測域センサ2を用いた簡易的な装置で得られたトロリ線4の偏位および高さを基に、当該トロリ線4の周囲のデータ点数を計測し、その値が他のラインのデータ点数よりも大きな値であるとき、そのラインには碍子6があると判定することにより碍子6を検出し、間接的に支持物5を検出することが可能となる。 According to the lever detection device and the lever detection method according to the present embodiment configured as described above, the deviation and height of the trolley wire 4 obtained by a simple device using the uniaxial scanning type range sensor 2. Based on the above, the number of data points around the trolley line 4 is measured, and when the value is larger than the number of data points of other lines, it is determined that the insulator 6 is present on the line. It is possible to detect and indirectly detect the support 5.
 ここで、従来の手法では、レーザスリット光を照射し、レーザ光で映し出された碍子部の形状を、カメラを使って測定する、いわゆる光切断法の考え方を用いている。しかし、この手法では、カメラとレーザの二台構成が必要となり、コストがかかるとともに装置構成が煩雑になるという問題があった。 Here, in the conventional method, a so-called light cutting method concept is used in which laser slit light is irradiated and the shape of the insulator portion projected by the laser light is measured using a camera. However, this method requires a configuration of two cameras and a laser, and there is a problem that the cost is high and the apparatus configuration is complicated.
 これに対し、本実施例に係る碍子検出装置及び碍子検出方法ではスキャン式レーザ(測域センサ2)一台という簡素な構成で、コストを抑制しつつ碍子6の検出を行うことができるという利点がある。さらに、トロリ線4の高さを、碍子6の検出に用いた測域センサ2で測定することができるという利点もある。 On the other hand, the lever detecting apparatus and the lever detecting method according to the present embodiment have an advantage that the lever 6 can be detected while suppressing the cost with a simple configuration of one scanning laser (the range sensor 2). There is. Furthermore, there is an advantage that the height of the trolley wire 4 can be measured by the range sensor 2 used for detecting the insulator 6.
 本発明は、碍子検出装置及び碍子検出方法に適用することができる。 The present invention can be applied to an insulator detecting device and an insulator detecting method.
