Device for detecting and monitoring emergency braking effect of railway locomotive

摘要

The device has a braking effect detection stage (2) for detecting deceleration in the vehicle's longitudinal direction and a braking effect monitoring stage (6), which outputs an "inadequate braking" warning (FBV) when the deceleration difference signal between measured actual and demanded deceleration values exceeds a threshold value. An error handling stage (7) detects an emergency braking failure when an "emergency braking" signal (MNB) and an "inadequate braking" signal are present and delivers control commands to several braking systems on the vehicle in order to achieve maximum residual braking.
