METHOD FOR COLLECTING TRAINS USING A RADIO CHANNEL Russian patent published in 2023 - IPC B61L27/00 

FIELD: railway equipment.

SUBSTANCE: methods for controlling trains when leaving a station along the way. The method includes preparing, using means of electrical centralization, a route for the departure of a leading train from one track of a station, opening an exit traffic light from this track for the leading train, and sending the leading train to the stage with the locomotive on-board control equipment turned on in the mode of automatic control of train movement based on automatic locomotive signals, received from the track circuits of the track sections of the leading train route, preparation using means of electrical centralization of the route for the departure of the driven train from another track of the station and its subsequent departure. In addition, the coordinates of the installation sites of additional traffic lights are determined based on the required interval of passing departures according to the speed curves obtained from traction calculations, after which additional traffic lights are installed. In this case, the preparation of the departure route of the driven train is carried out by closing the track sections in automatic mode behind the tail of the leading train. Then, after the leading train enters the section of track behind the additional traffic light, the exit traffic light for the driven train opens and the additional traffic light installed at the neck of the station is simultaneously turned on. After the driven train leaves the exit traffic light, codes are obtained from the rail circuits using a coding algorithm, in which each rail circuit is encoded individually following the tail of the leading train, then after the tail of the leading train clears the section of track fenced off by an additional traffic light at the neck of the station, this traffic light is turned off. Additional traffic lights installed at the removal sections are turned on when the driven train enters the section of track fenced off by this traffic light, and turn off after it is released.

EFFECT: increasing the throughput of the outlet neck is achieved.
