AUTOMATED SYSTEM FOR MONITORING TRANSPORTATION OF CARGO ON ROLLING STOCK Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC G08G1/00 G08B25/08 G08B25/10 E01B29/02 

FIELD: physics, instrument-making.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to automation and telemechanics on railway transport for monitoring long rail bars during transportation. The system includes a mobile monitoring station with an automate workstation, an uninterrupted power source and a system of cargo monitoring equipment, which includes sets of sensors, wire and wireless communication channels, as well as storage batteries. The system further includes a car-to-car communication module, designed to monitor integrity of the wire communication channel, a first set of sensors mounted on bars transversely installed on a latching platform, a second set of sensors, placed on a passage platform and configured to interact with ends of a large-size U-shaped bar, a third set of sensors, mounted on the radio channel module for car-to-car communication with a transceiving antenna configured to interact with support bars, pressed between guide shoes and the end of the long cargo.

EFFECT: high reliability of monitoring overall state of transported cargo.
