Crushing type omnidirectional anti-creeper for railway vehicle
Technical Field
The invention relates to a train anti-climbing energy absorption device, in particular to a crushing type omnidirectional anti-climbing device for a railway vehicle, and belongs to the technical field of passive safety of railway vehicles.
Background
Rail vehicle anti-creepers generally include an anti-creep device and an energy absorbing device. The anti-creeper front end toothed plates of two adjacent car ends which mutually impact are firstly meshed to limit the relative displacement of the two cars and prevent the car climbing accident after the car coupler device is cut off when the car coupler device is in collision, and the cars are limited on the track as far as possible to ensure that the car ends which mutually impact are longitudinally and orderly deformed along the car body, so that the multi-stage energy absorption device of the cars can play a role step by step to protect the life safety of passengers.
It is believed that the occurrence of a climbing accident during a train collision is 20 times higher than the casualty rate without the occurrence of a climbing accident. The main component for preventing climbing when the train collides is the anticreeper. Along with the continuous improvement of the speed per hour of the operation of the rail vehicle, higher requirements are put forward on the passive safety performance of the anti-creeper.
In the prior art, the anti-creep device front end of rail vehicle anti-creep ware is mostly the anti-creep pinion rack that is rectangle, trapezoidal horizontal tooth. The anti-climbing toothed plate can only prevent the vertical dislocation of the train when the train collides, namely, the train climbing is prevented, and the energy absorption effect of the anti-climbing device is ignored.
Particularly, the two-phase train collision can generate vertical deviation and non-vertical deviation when vibrating, passing through a curve or snaking and colliding, and the non-vertical deviation is completely restrained by the friction force between the climbing-proof toothed plates of the two-phase train collision. The anti-climbing toothed plate of the traditional anti-climbing device can be subjected to non-centering load, a large bending moment is generated to act on the energy-absorbing pipe, the energy-absorbing pipe is subjected to integral buckling instability instead of gradual buckling, the energy-absorbing efficiency of the energy-absorbing pipe is greatly reduced, and the effective protection effect can not be achieved even along with the aggravation of unbalance load.
At present, the energy absorption device of the rail vehicle anti-creeper can be divided into a crushing type, an expansion type and a cutting type according to a deformation mode. The energy absorption device is most common in crushing energy absorption of a thin-wall structure, but the peak value of instantaneous deceleration at the time of collision is large, secondary collision of passengers in a vehicle is easily caused, the transverse rigidity is too small, and axial instability is easily caused during non-centering collision.
Generally, the crashworthiness of the structure is mainly as the following key evaluation indexes:
1) compared with energy absorption (SEA), namely energy absorbed by unit mass of a structure, the more energy is absorbed, the better the energy absorption effect is;
2) initial peak force FmaxA larger peak force means that the passenger can bear larger acceleration impact, and the peak is reduced or eliminated as much as possible to reduce the damage to the secondary collision in the passenger car;
3) effective impact force ratio (AE), i.e., the ratio of the average impact force to the peak force at a limited impact compression displacement.
The rail vehicle anti-creeper is an important component for the classified energy absorption of trains, and the initial peak force is reduced as far as possible while the rail vehicle anti-creeper is required to have high specific energy absorption.
CN204915710U proposes an omnidirectional anti-climbing toothed plate which is composed of frustum-shaped anti-climbing protruding teeth, anti-climbing concave teeth and anti-climbing deflection teeth arranged in a checkerboard-like symmetrical manner, wherein the height of the anti-climbing deflection teeth is only half of that of the anti-climbing protruding teeth. When two trains collide with each other in a vertical or horizontal initial offset manner, the protruding teeth and the concave teeth are meshed after dislocation, and then the anti-climbing and anti-offset teeth are used for further limiting so as to try to realize omnidirectional anti-climbing. However, due to uncertainty in impact deflection, the omni-directional structure does not always mesh well. Particularly, when the top surfaces of the edge tables of the two anti-climbing protruded teeth are contacted, the engagement of the protruded teeth and the concave teeth has no guiding function; and vertical and horizontal offset are present simultaneously at the time of impact, and when the frustum pyramid-shaped anti-climbing protruding tooth is just opposite to the anti-climbing anti-deflection tooth, the guiding engagement is more difficult, which leads to the increase of the probability of tooth disengagement.
CN110816579A provides an omnidirectional anti-climbing tooth plate with saw-shaped teeth arranged transversely, when collision occurs, the inner grooves on the saw-shaped teeth can block the shorter outer convex teeth between two saw-shaped teeth, so as to achieve the purpose of omnidirectional anti-climbing. However, the anti-climbing device has the problem that centering engagement cannot be guided, when a train passes through a curve (collides with each other at a certain inclination angle), the outer convex teeth which are short on the inner side of the curve may be staggered, so that the non-axial deviation of the energy absorption pipe after final engagement is increased, integral buckling occurs, and the energy absorption efficiency is seriously influenced; in addition, vertical sliding still exists after the inner grooves are meshed with the protruding teeth, and the disturbance also greatly influences the energy absorption efficiency of the energy absorption device.
CN110598341A proposes a multi-tube coaxial nested energy absorption device with induced energy absorption function, which sets induction holes at different positions on the coaxial energy absorption tubes to reduce the initial peak force at the time of impact, but this does not improve or even slightly reduce the specific energy absorption of the energy absorption tubes.
In the prior art, most of collision accidents happen in a linear running state, the technical field considers that the phenomenon that two trains of vehicles climb when colliding in the linear running is prevented, and the energy absorption effect is not emphasized. Therefore, the prior art only concerns the vertical deviation caused by the symmetrical load when two vehicles collide with each other, and neglects the non-vertical deviation caused by the asymmetrical load when two vehicles collide with each other.
In practice, if a collision accident occurs in a curve working condition, due to the fact that non-vertical deviation is generated by the impact asymmetric load, the deviation can cause derailment of two vehicles, secondary passenger damage is caused, and the energy absorption efficiency of the energy absorption structure of the anti-creeper can be reduced.
In summary, in the prior art, the rail vehicle anti-climbing energy-absorbing device cannot limit non-vertical deviation, cannot give consideration to stable omnidirectional anti-climbing and high effective impact force ratio, and cannot ensure effective anti-climbing and energy-absorbing in a collision accident.
In particular, due to the inertia of the conventional thinking, the skilled person has never broken through the category of the conventional considerations, and has no motivation to consider how to further limit the non-vertical deviation, how to consider stable omnidirectional anti-creep and high effective impact force ratio, how to ensure effective anti-creep in a collision accident while achieving a preset energy-absorbing effect.

The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are illustrative only and should not be construed as limiting the invention.
As shown in fig. 2a, 2b, and 2c, the omnidirectional anti-creep toothed plate 1 of the omnidirectional anti-creep crushing type anti-creeper provided by the present invention can be structurally divided into: the anti-climbing tooth is composed of a rectangular pyramid-shaped tooth 1-2 and a square column-shaped tooth 1-1, an anti-climbing groove 1-3 surrounded by the square column-shaped teeth on the periphery, and a mounting plate 1-4 with a limiting groove 1-5 and a threaded hole 1-6. Wherein, the height h of the rectangular pyramid-shaped teeth 1-22Less than the height h of the square column-shaped teeth 1-11And the projection area of the anti-climbing convex teeth on the mounting plate 1-4 is smaller than the projection area of the anti-climbing groove 1-3 on the mounting plate 1-4. The limiting grooves 1-5 and the threaded holes 1-6 are symmetrically arranged around the center of the mounting plate. The omnidirectional anti-creep toothed plate 1 can be processed by adopting an investment casting mode, limiting grooves 1-5 can be directly milled, and threaded holes 1-6 can be tapped by adopting a customized screw tap.
As shown in FIG. 6, the invention provides a tensile energy-absorbing tube 2 based on a 2D-Voronoi structure of an omnidirectional anti-climbing crushing type anti-climbing device. The 2D-Voronoi structure is manufactured by adopting a basic Thiessen polygon mosaic method. As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the cell size, the number of cells, the degree of regularity of each cell, and the boundary shape can be controlledTo facilitate comparison, wherein n2The total area A enclosed by the unit squares is kept constant. In addition, algorithms for generating the energy absorbing tube sections from the 2D-Voronoi structure include, but are not limited to, directly generating the desired sections with the boundaries as constraints or cutting the 2D-Voronoi structure to form the desired energy absorbing tube sections. The 2D-Voronoi tensile energy-absorbing pipe can be manufactured by section bar manufacturing or extrusion molding process.
Preferably, the energy absorbing structure is a 2D-Voronoi tensile energy absorbing structure (tesson polygonal tensile tube). Specifically, the energy absorbing structure according to the invention is produced by the following steps:
first, determine n2(n>0) Unit square center coordinate (x)i,yi),i∈(1,n),(n2Namely the number of the two-dimensional Thiessen polygonal seeds);
second, for n above2The seeds are disturbed by delta value in any direction, and new coordinates (x ') after disturbance are obtained'i,y'i) The calculation formula is as follows:
in formula (1): alpha is a parameter for controlling the irregularity of the 2D-Voronoi structure cell; delta0Represents the minimum distance between the seeds in two adjacent cells, which is defined by n2Total area A and seed number n enclosed by unit squares2Determining;
third, with new coordinates (x'i,y'i) And (3) generating a 2D-Voronoi structure for the seed, and finally cutting and stretching the 2D-Voronoi structure into an energy-absorbing circular tube. And in order to further improve the energy absorption of the anti-creeper, a form of combining a plurality of energy absorption structures is adopted.
Preferably, the 2D-Voronoi structure, A and n2The larger the ratio of (a) is, the larger the average area of the cell is; the smaller the alpha (toward 0), the more regular the cell shapeThe more uniform each cell; the larger alpha (which tends to be 100), the more irregular the cell shape, and the great difference in cell size. And the more the cell count is, the more uniform the size is, the more steady the impact force will be, also slightly increase than the energy absorption.
Preferably, the outer boundary of the 2D-Voronoi tensile energy-absorbing structure can be a regular triangle, a square, a regular hexagon, a regular octagon or a circle; the inner boundary is matched with the guiding device and can be in a cross shape or a circular shape. According to the requirements of different vehicle types on energy absorption and impact response, the length, the inner diameter and the outer diameter of the energy absorption structure and the thickness of the cell wall can be further optimized.
The invention provides an energy absorption structure of an A-type subway train head car anti-creeper, which has the structural size as follows: the length is 500mm, the diameter is 100mm, the thickness is 2mm, and the material can select low strength steel or aluminum alloy and the like, so that the strength is lower than that of other metal structures of the anti-creeper.
According to the anti-creeping device, in order to facilitate installation and improve the bending resistance, the guide structure can adopt a round pipe, a cross-shaped guide rod, a quincunx guide rod and the like, and the guide pipe is symmetrical about the center, has strong bending resistance and can tap external threads.
Preferably, the invention provides a guide pipe with a special-shaped section, namely, the outer wall of the guide pipe is a circular pipe, and a cross-shaped guide rod is welded inside the guide pipe. And a combination of multi-guide structures can be adopted to further increase the bending resistance.
Preferably, in order to match the energy absorption structure, the invention provides a guide structure which consists of four guide tubes with the diameter of 40mm on the periphery and a middle single tube with the diameter of 70 mm. The material of the anti-creeping device can be made of weather-resistant steel which is the same as that of the omnidirectional anti-creeping toothed plate.
The invention provides an A-type subway train head train anti-creeper, wherein in the structural dimension parameters of other parts, the thickness of a mounting seat takes values according to the following formula: h2=a×H1(wherein H is1Thickness of the energy-absorbing section bar, H2Representing the thickness of the mounting seat, the range of a is 2.5-5.5), and the wall thickness H of a simple circular tube with the same mass as the energy absorbing tube according to the invention1Is 5.6mm, and the thickness H of the mounting seat is obtained by taking a as 4.462Is 25 mm. Outer coverThe invention mainly plays a role in packaging and dust prevention, and can select ABS material. In addition, the structural form of the outer cover can be changed or the metal material can be selected to be used as an auxiliary structure to participate in energy absorption.
As shown in fig. 1, an omnidirectional anti-climbing crushing type anti-climbing device comprises an omnidirectional anti-climbing toothed plate 1, an energy absorption pipe 2, a guide pipe 3, a mounting seat 4, an outer cover 5, a screw 6, a first connecting bolt 7, a second connecting bolt 8 and a locknut 9. The omnidirectional anti-climbing toothed plate 1 is milled with limiting grooves 1-5, and the limiting grooves on the mounting seat 4 are used for circumferentially positioning the four energy absorption tubes 2. As shown in fig. 7, threaded holes 1-6 are further tapped on the omnidirectional anti-creeping toothed plate 1 and are connected with external threads on the guide pipe 3 in a screwing manner, so that the guide pipe 3 and the omnidirectional anti-creeping toothed plate 1 are fixedly connected. Wherein, the external thread on the guide tube 3 is a tube thread, and the thread parameters refer to the standard GB/T7307-2001. The energy absorption pipe 2 is in clearance fit with the guide pipe 3, and the energy absorption pipe 2 is fixed on the mounting seat 4 through a second connecting bolt 8. The guide pipe 3 penetrates through a reserved through hole in the mounting seat 4, and the other end of the guide pipe 3-2 with the thinner periphery is also processed with external threads to be matched with the locknut 9 to realize the longitudinal positioning of the whole anti-creeper. The guide pipe 3 can be formed by welding a round pipe and a cross-shaped guide pipe. The mounting seat 4 is fixed on the train body underframe through a first connecting bolt 7 so as to realize the mounting and positioning of the whole anti-creeper on the train. The outer cover 5 is used for packaging the whole anti-creeper through the screw 6 and the first connecting bolt 7. The anti-creeper is installed at two ends of the train body by taking the center of the train body (a track plane) as a symmetrical point, so that the meshing effectiveness of the anti-creeper in accidents such as train collision, rear-end collision and the like is guaranteed under the condition that male and female matching is not needed.
When the trains provided with the omnidirectional anti-climbing crushing type anti-climbing device for the rail vehicles collide, firstly, the anti-climbing devices at the ends of the two trains respectively contact with each other firstly. In the case of no bias: the anti-climbing convex teeth on the anti-climbing toothed plate 1 of one anti-climbing device are meshed with the anti-climbing grooves 1-3 on the anti-climbing toothed plate of the other anti-climbing device, and under the extrusion action of two-phase collision trains, the mutual dislocation is limited, so that the anti-climbing function is realized; in the case of a bias: the rectangular pyramid teeth 1-2 of the anti-climbing convex teeth on the two anti-climbing devices omnidirectional anti-climbing toothed plates 1 are contacted, namely point-surface contact or point-point contact. The contact is unstable, so that a guiding function is generated along with the advancing of the collision of the train, the rectangular pyramid-shaped teeth 1-2 are guided to slide into the anti-climbing grooves 1-3, and the anti-climbing convex teeth and the anti-climbing grooves of the two anti-climbing devices are mutually meshed, so that the function of preventing the omnidirectional dislocation is realized.
When a train provided with the omnidirectional anti-climbing crushing type anti-climbing device for the railway vehicle collides, impact force is transmitted to the energy-absorbing pipe 2 through the omnidirectional anti-climbing toothed plate 1, the outer cover 5 is crushed at the moment, and the guide pipe 3 bears main bending moment to enable the energy-absorbing pipe to be axially symmetrically pressed as far as possible. The impact force is transmitted to the underframe of the vehicle body by the mounting seat 4 connected with the other end of the energy-absorbing pipe. Because the energy-absorbing pipe adopts the aluminum alloy material with lower strength, the energy-absorbing pipe deforms and absorbs energy firstly when being impacted, and the effectiveness of other structures of the anti-creeper is ensured. The guide pipe penetrates through a through hole in the mounting seat 4 and is embedded into a reserved space of the underframe of the vehicle body.
The finite element model of the collision of the two anti-creepers is shown in FIG. 9, and each part of the finite element model adopts Belytschko-Tsay shell elements and in-plane single-point integration, the total number of the elements is 342742, and the total number of the nodes is 320624. Wherein the guide pipe 3, the omnidirectional anti-climbing toothed plate 1, the energy absorption pipe 2 and the mounting seat 4 share a node for processing. According to the collision working condition of the same type of C-II vehicles in EN15227, the collision speed of the two trains in simulation is determined to be 25 km/h; in the collision, an additional half-car-mass (25t) of an anti-creeper is used for impacting another anti-creeper fixed on a rigid wall, and 7 typical working conditions combining three offset parameters of horizontal, vertical and inclined are designed as shown in the table 1. For the determination of the inclination parameters, taking an a-type subway train as an example, the distance between the trains is 15.7m, according to the design specification of underground railways, the radius of the subway train which is difficult to operate in an auxiliary line is 150m, and assuming that two subway trains collide at the moment, the included angle between the two trains is:

According to the invention, the omnidirectional anti-climbing performance is mainly embodied in the omnidirectional anti-climbing toothed plate, so that only different structural forms of the anti-climbing toothed plate are controlled, and compared with the traditional rectangular-tooth-shaped transverse anti-climbing toothed plate, simulation evaluation is carried out, and the structural sizes and simulation working condition conditions of other parts are unchanged; the energy absorption performance is mainly embodied in the energy absorption pipe, so only the structural form of the energy absorption pipe is controlled to be different, the simulation evaluation is carried out on the traditional simple circular pipe with the same quality, and the structural sizes and the simulation working condition conditions of other parts are not changed. The simulation working condition is as follows: in the collision scenario of a C-II vehicle of the same type specified in standard EN15227, i.e. one anti-creeper is attached with a half car mass of 25t in mass units, hitting another anti-creeper fixed on a rigid wall at a speed of 25 km/h.
Compared with the traditional rectangular tooth type transverse anti-climbing toothed plate, seven collision working conditions of combination of three bias parameters of vertical, horizontal and inclined are designed, and the anti-climbing performance of the omnidirectional anti-climbing structure is analyzed and evaluated through numerical simulation by a finite element method. Establishing a finite element simulation model of the combined type simple circular tube and the combined type 2D-Voronoi tensile energy-absorbing tube, and carrying out simulation analysis on the energy-absorbing performance of the 2D-Voronoi tensile energy-absorbing tube under a simple compression working condition. The impact characteristics of the anti-climbing device under the combined working conditions of three bias parameters of vertical, horizontal and inclined are analyzed and evaluated by combining the omnidirectional anti-climbing structure and the energy absorption structure. And comprehensively analyzing the results, weighing each collision evaluation index, and determining the structural form, the design parameters and the processing technology of the anti-creeper. According to the anti-climbing device, due to the action of the omnidirectional anti-climbing toothed plate, centering and stable meshing can be well guided under seven working conditions formed by combining three offset parameters of horizontal, vertical and inclined. And the omnidirectional anti-climbing toothed plate can generate a larger initial impact force in the offset direction, and the force can straighten the car body in the actual collision and is increased along with the increase of the guide offset (namely the distance for guiding the anti-climbing convex teeth to the groove of the other anti-climbing toothed plate in the collision).
The material model and parameters of each part are shown in table 2. The contact between the parts is automatic surface-to-surface contact or automatic single-surface contact.

For the evaluation of the omnidirectional anti-climbing capability of the omnidirectional anti-climbing toothed plate, taking the working condition of 4 single vertical offset of 25mm as an example, the calculation is solved in an LS-DYNA solver. A simulated pair of a conventional anti-creeper with a omnidirectional anti-creeper with an anti-creeper according to the present invention from the start of the collision to the full collapse four times is shown in fig. 10. It can be seen that the anti-creeper with the omnidirectional anti-creep toothed plate according to the present invention is well guided to center and engage upon impact. Impact force versus time curves in three directions are extracted as shown in figure 11. And when in collision, the horizontal and longitudinal forces of the two anti-creepers are basically consistent. The vertical forces are expressed as: the omnidirectional anti-climbing toothed plate according to the invention initially presents a very large peak impact force which, in an actual collision, forces the anti-climbing device to move vertically to engage and seize, acting to straighten the car body, and the greater the guiding offset (i.e. the distance guiding the anti-climbing toothed plate to the other anti-climbing toothed plate groove in the event of a collision), the greater this force. This is true for all six other conditions, each impacting three-directional force versus time curves such as those shown in FIGS. 12-17. Specific anti-creep evaluation parameters are shown in table 3,
table 3 omnidirectional anti-creep evaluation parameters with omnidirectional anti-creep toothed plate anti-creeper according to the present invention
For the evaluation of the energy absorption performance of the combined 2D-Voronoi tensile energy absorption tube, the structural size of the energy absorption tube is consistent with that in the working condition of the evaluation of the anti-creep performance, which is specifically shown in the following table 4.
The simulation of the collision process is shown in fig. 18, the combined energy-absorbing tube according to the invention forms more uniform and similar plastic hinges due to the progressive buckling deformation in the circular ring mode, and the combined simple circular tube forms fewer plastic hinges and has non-uniform sizes due to the progressive buckling deformation in the mixed circular ring mode and diamond mode.
As shown in FIG. 19, the combined simple round tube has diamond-mode deformation during the compression process, the plastic hinge formed by the deformation mode is larger, the deformation is not sufficient, the force fluctuation is larger, and the energy absorption is relatively less.
TABLE 4 structural dimensions of the model
And the impact characteristics of the anti-creeper provided by the invention under the working condition of combining three bias parameters of vertical, horizontal and inclined are integrally analyzed and evaluated by combining an omnidirectional anti-creeper structure and the energy absorption structure provided by the invention. Under the combined action of the guidance of the omnidirectional anti-climbing toothed plate and the collision of the energy absorption pipes belonging to the two collision anti-climbing devices, as shown in a column diagram of fig. 20, the specific energy absorption of the omnidirectional anti-climbing crushing type anti-climbing device has the lifting rate of more than 14 percent relative to a combined simple circular pipe under seven working conditions; the initial peak force is obviously reduced and is lower than the average load; the effective impact force ratio is improved by more than 68 percent. And different bias working conditions have little influence on the energy absorption effect of the anti-creeper.
Specific data are shown in table 5 below. In addition, the guiding of the anti-creeper omnidirectional anti-creeper toothed plate and the collision condition of the multi-energy-absorbing pipe can reduce the initial peak force of the thin-wall energy-absorbing structure during collision.
TABLE 5 energy absorption Performance Collision evaluation parameters
According to the anti-creeper, the energy absorption tube based on 2D-Voronoi structure stretching is adopted, the randomness, the density, the wall thickness and the boundary shape of the cell distribution of the energy absorption tube can be controlled by parameters, so that the energy absorption capacity can be regulated and controlled, and the anti-creeper can play a role in peak clipping impact force when being matched with the omnidirectional anti-creeper toothed plate during impact. Compared with a simple section combined energy-absorbing circular tube, the anti-creeping device can absorb energy at a lifting ratio, and simultaneously, the initial peak force of impact under seven working conditions is obviously reduced and is lower than the average load.
According to the invention, the structure of the anti-creeper is simple, each part can be completely disassembled, and the inherent performance defect of a welding structure is eliminated.
