Operation status reproducing device, display device, and operation status reproducing method
An operation status reproducing device includes an onboard information obtaining unit that obtains onboard information corresponding to date and time from an onboard device mounted on a designated train being a train specified by a train number and the date and time externally designated, a specific event detecting unit that specifies time at which a specific event occurs by analyzing the onboard information, a ground information obtaining unit that obtains ground information in a certain period including the time at which the specific event occurs from a ground device, an external information obtaining unit that obtains external information including weather information in a certain period including the time at which the specific event occurs, and a reproduction image generating unit that generates a reproduction image illustrating a past operation status of the designated train based on the onboard information, the ground information, and the external information.
Detection of dynamic train-to-rail shunting performance
Systems and methods for detecting the dynamic train-to-rail shunting performance of a train as it is moving along the rails of a railroad track. The systems and methods use portable equipment temporarily installed at a site where it is desired to test the shunting of one or more trains or the electrical equipment installed at the track. The systems and method use sensor plates and a high speed recording system to simultaneously capture measured train-to-rail shunting characteristics and the positioning of a train's axles and any rail conditions impacting the measurements. The captured information can be used to fine tune the train, the electrical equipment installed at the track and/or to design new devices.
CONSTANT MONITORING SYSTEM FOR RAILWAY VEHICLE
Provided is a constant monitoring system for a railway vehicle that is monitorable of a dimensional change of a railroad truck during running. The present disclosure is the constant monitoring system for the railway vehicle that includes a sensor and a calculator. The sensor detects passage therethrough of wheels included in the railroad truck of the railway vehicle. The calculator calculates an inter-axle distance between two axles of the railroad truck based on a detection result obtained from the sensor. The sensor includes two displacement sensors of non-contact type that detect the passage of the wheels from respective different locations.
