MONORAIL RAILWAY AUTOMATIC BLOCK SYSTEM Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC B61L23/00 B61L1/16 

FIELD: transport.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to railway ACS and can be used for monorail traffic regulation to ensure safety of electrical rolling stock (ERS). The proposed automatic block system made up of several block sections comprises the data pickup appliances mounted at every aforesaid block section along the route responding to the ERS running, defining the ERS running direction. The aforesaid appliances are connected to the data processing system (DPS) representing a microprocessor hardware and a system designed to transfer data (DTS) from DPS to rolling stock control system. The proposed automatic block system comprises a mobile rig mounted on vertical supports, while DPS is made up of at least two semi-sets of microprocessor hardware connected to the control device. Every aforesaid semi-set incorporates interconnected controller and a stationary generator and is connected to the central dispatching control system via a communication hardware, network infrastructure hardware and talk-back communication system, as well as to data processing hardware mounted ahead the running ERS and behind it. ERS comprises at least one automatic continuous signaling receiver to receive data from DTS including a loopback, i.e. a low-frequency communication line comprising direct, irradiating and back branches.

EFFECT: higher safety for automatic rolling stock running.
