METHOD OF OPERATION OF THE DERAILMENT CONTROL DEVICE Russian patent published in 2023 - IPC B61L3/00 

FIELD: monitoring the derailment of rolling stock.

SUBSTANCE: sensor of the derailment control device is installed at a predetermined distance from the border of the area with the protected item; service braking is started after the sensor of the derailment control device is triggered. At the same time, the railway track is divided into sections controlled by track circuits; when the sensor of the derailment control device is triggered, information is checked about the busy track circuits at the time the sensor of the derailment control device is triggered and at the previous time, as well as the fact that there is no violation of the lower clearance in this case within a distance equal to the length of one or more track circuits from the head of the train, the point of targeted braking of the head of the train is determined, which is remote from the head of the train at a distance exceeding the length of service braking from the maximum set speed to a complete stop, taking into account the time the driver perceives information about the operation of the sensor of the control device derailment of the rolling stock, as well as the time of determining the location of the faulty rolling unit in the train, service braking is started with a stop in front of the protected item of the faulty rolling unit in the train.

EFFECT: increased accuracy of stopping the faulty rolling unit in front of the protected item.
