Title:
LOCOMOTIVE CONTROL DEVICE, LOCOMOTIVE CONTROL SYSTEM, AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING START OF LOCOMOTIVE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/125773
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a locomotive control device capable of starting trains while reliably reducing impact loads applied to couplers (10) without depending on operating skill of motormen. A control command output unit (8) of a locomotive control device (2) performs automatic control such that a locomotive (1) travels at a permissible speed Vt or lower before all the couplers (10) are engaged. In that case, the permissible speed Vt is set to a quotient obtained by dividing an initial displacement L0 of the couplers (10) by a time Ts during which impact loads are applied to the couplers (10) so that the impact loads generated by the engagement of the couplers (10) do not overlap when the locomotive (1) starts and pulls a plurality of cars (9).
