[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a vehicle automatic duplexer for use in an automatic train disengagement system for vehicles.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art An electric coupler is attached to a mechanical coupler used for composing a train so that it can be connected to a vehicle at the same time as an electric connector.
Alternatively, the automatic train connection system that connects air and air at the same time is 7, 8
It has become popular since a year ago. However, this method has a drawback that only the same shape and number of cores of the electric coupler can be connected because of its nature.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the invention] Due to improvements in the control system of recent trains and the addition of information transmission systems, the number of cores is currently insufficient and the number of cores is increasing while using the conventional system. I have to deal with it.

[0004]

In consideration of such a point, in the present invention, a part of the electric coupler body previously used in the train composition is extended downward so that the lid operates separately. The other electric connector body 11 provided with an opening / closing mechanism is attached. Further, the connecting action of the electric coupler is accompanied by the mechanical coupler attached to the vehicle, but the connecting surface of the mechanical coupler has the protrusion and the hole for the centering and thus the lock. It is composed of a lock part for.

[0005] Thus what the connecting surface of the mechanical coupling is had Fitting tolerances designed to mechanical structural and wear clearance Usage electrical coupler of course affected by this
And the electric coupler body 1 is located below the mechanical coupler,
In addition the electrical concatenation unit 11 under the electric connector body 1
It is those provided in, mating portion of the connecting surface of the mechanical consolidation unit
Since the distance is longer than the minute,
It is also affected by abrasion and looseness.
Therefore, in the present invention, the movement in the front-back direction is corrected.
A push spring 16 for holding the electric connector body 11
In addition, the distance m ₂ between the adjacent electrical contact pieces 18, 18 provided on the electrical coupler body 11 is set to the electrical coupler body 1
Larger than the distance m ₁ between the adjacent electric contact pieces 17,
By taking Ku contact causes adjacent to correct the deviation of the contact piece
It prevents accidents such as short circuit between the pieces and guarantees a reliable and safe connecting operation.

[0006]

Thus, according to the present invention, the conventional method, that is, the ordinary mechanical coupler to which the electric coupler body 1 is attached, and the new method, that is, the electric coupler body 1 is extended downward as in the present invention. It becomes possible to perform the connecting operation with the one to which the integral electric connector body 11 is attached, and of course, the connecting operation according to the new method is possible. The electric connector body 11 is provided with a lid opening / closing mechanism separately, and if there is no other side, the lid is not opened and dust-proof and moisture-proof functions are maintained, and the conventional electric coupler body 1 is normally connected. .

1 is a schematic side view of an embodiment of the device according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a front view of the same. Also, FIG. 4 is a side view of a state in which the new system according to the present invention is connected when vehicles are connected, and FIG. 4 is a side view of a state in which the new system according to the present invention and the conventional system are connected. Throughout the drawings, 1 is a connector body, 11 is an optional electrical connector body, and the connecting surface of the lower electrical connector body 11 is normally forward by 1 and the electrical connector body 1 From the contact piece spacing m ₁ , the contact piece spacing m ₂ of the electrical coupler body 11
The taking large. Reference numerals 2 and 12 respectively denote a lid of the electrical coupler body 1 and an optional electrical coupler body 11, and include open positions 2'and 12 'which move about the shaft 3 and the shaft 13 respectively. Also, 4, 4'is a jumper wire, 5, 15 is a lid return spring, 6 is a push rod, 6'is a return spring for the push rod, 7 and 8 are left and right mounting legs extending below the electric coupler body 1,
7'and 8'are contact plates, 9 are push rods of the lid 12 of the electrical connector body 11, 10 are push rods with the contact plates 10 ', 16 are push springs, 14 is a mechanical connection attached to the vehicle. It is a vessel. In addition, in FIG. 4, 1a, 2a, 7a, and 8a are a conventional electric connector body, a lid, a mounting leg, and a mounting leg, respectively. In this way, in the present invention, the electric connector body 1 is extended downward, and the lid 12 having the push rod 9 and the push spring 16 is provided.
The left and right mounting legs 7 and 8 having the opening mechanism and the contact plates 7 ′ and 8 ′ are provided, and another lid mechanism is provided at a position where a space is provided when the lid 2 of the electric coupler body 1 is opened. The electrical coupling body 11 is installed, and the coupling surface of the electrical coupling body 11 thus installed is moved forward by 1 from the coupling surface of the mechanical coupling, and the pushing spring 16 is used to buffer it. Coping with the movement at the time of connection and pushing it in ensures a normal connection.

[0008] Figure 3 Te Thus is obtained by connecting butt alignment in an electric connector body 1 and which extended to the electric connector 11 which is mounted two at a time connected with symmetrical plane A of FIG. 1, in accordance with the connection of the mechanical connector 14 comrades connecting surface of the electrical connector body 11 than the connecting surface of the electrical connector body 1 was on the front slightly l is in contact with the coupling surface of the electrical connector 11 of the mating A normal connection can be secured against the push spring 16. Further, in FIG. 4, one of the electric coupler bodies 1 is extended to install the electric coupler body 11 as in the present invention, but the other one is only the electric coupler body 1 which is conventionally used. installed, electrical connector body 1 each other left and right is not shown is connected alignment can collision, the number of cores of the connecting surface is sufficient for conventional
In this case, only the conventional electric connector body 1 without the electric connector body 11 is used on the right side, and therefore the lid 12 of the one electric connector body 11 is kept open and drip-proof. The conventional electrical connector body 1 is normally connected while maintaining the dustproof function.

[0009]

As described above, according to the present invention, the conventional automatic electrical coupler is attached with an optional integrated automatic electrical coupler, and two pairs of automatic electrical couplers are combined and installed. The number of circuits of the automatic disconnection system can be increased, and the connection and disconnection with the conventional electric coupler body can be easily performed, and the practical effect becomes great.
