DETECTION OF CONDITIONS COMPROMISING PASSENGER SAFETY IN A RAILWAY VEHICLE

摘要

The invention relates to a railway vehicle comprising a vehicle controller (106) and at least one detection device (107.1 to 107.8) connected to the vehicle controller (106), wherein the vehicle controller (106) is designed to affect at least one condition parameter of the vehicle (101), and the at least one detection device (107.1 to 107.8) is designed to detect a current condition parameter of the vehicle (101) and/or the surroundings of the vehicle (101) and to output a corresponding condition signal, and wherein predefinable values of the detected condition parameter represent a direct threat to the safety of the passengers of the vehicle (101). The vehicle controller (106) has a hazard detection unit that is designed to assign the current condition of the vehicle (101) to a current hazard classification, using a first condition signal from the at least one detection device (107.1 to 107.8) and using a condition variable derived from the first condition signal and/or at least one second condition signal from at least one additional detection device (107.1 to 107.8) according to predefinable hazard classification criteria. The vehicle controller (106) further has a reaction unit that is designed to initiate a reaction affecting the at least one condition parameter of the vehicle (101), depending on the current hazard classification.
