METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SUPPLYING A TRACK CIRCUIT

摘要

An apparatus for supplying a track circuit in a railway line provided with a plurality of track circuits adjacent to one another and electrically insulated from one another. Said circuit comprises a pair of rails (R) formed by parallel metal bars (B) and a transmission block (2), capable of supplying the track circuit via a voltage generator designed to cause a current to flow in the circuit, it being possible for information to be associated to said current signal via a predetermined code. Said current delivered and absorbed by the circuit is detectable by a detection device provided on board a train that is travelling along that track circuit.
