The ÖBB 2167 is a diesel locomotive series of the ÖBB .
history
From January 25 to February 9, 1995, the ÖBB tested the shunting locomotive 365 124, which was leased from DB AG and was equipped with a radio remote control and an automatic RK 900 shunting coupling . At the Floridsdorf freight station, extensive tests were carried out from Monday to Thursday with a train driver from the Vienna North train transport service who was type-trained by DB AG. In radio control mode, the maximum speed was 25 km / h, the transfers from Floridsdorf to Vienna were carried out with manual control and a maximum speed of 60 km / h, so as not to hinder the rapid transit system. The positive test results led to the decision to equip the 2067 series with the radio remote control system as a test vehicle.
The choice fell on June 3, 1996 called 2067.093 for a main repair of the train transport line Vienna East. The conversion work took place in the responsible main workshop, the TS plant in Knittelfeld . The official acceptance took place on August 30, 1996 and on September 3, 1996 the locomotive was in shunting operation for the first time in Mürzzuschlag. The change from 2067.093 to 2167.093 took place on March 1, 1997.
The decommissioning took place on July 1, 2006, a few months later it was scrapped at a scrap dealer near Fürstenfeld .
technology
The following requirement profile was met during the renovation work:
- Equipping the locomotive with a radio remote control
- Adaptation of the radio
- Comparison of the radio commands for inconsistency
- Control and monitoring of the diesel engines
- Limitation of the starting tractive effort (anti-skid protection)
- Control and monitoring of the direction of travel, braking, gear filling and standstill
- Speed monitoring for a selected speed (15 km / h, 25 km / h and 40 km / h)
- Installation of a safety drive switch
The driving handwheel was replaced by a setpoint generator, which enabled a setpoint to be specified in the form of an up / down control. The activated counter specifies a target value from 0 to 100 percent, which is converted into a current signal (between 4 mA and 20 mA) in a control unit. The output signal is forwarded to an EP converter (pressure transducer) for engine speed control.
The radio commands are issued with a remote control device that the shunting employee has with him. The signals are sent via the vehicle's antenna to the receiver in the remote control cabinet in the driver's cab and, depending on the operating status, are converted into electrical or pneumatic control variables. In addition to power, brake and turnaround control, it is also possible to carry out various processes such as whistling, sanding or releasing the automatic shunting clutch using the appropriate buttons or toggle switches on the control unit. Unintentional operation is prevented by locked toggle switches or two-hand operation . A push button ensures rapid braking and interruption of power transmission in an emergency. In addition, the device is equipped with an inclinometer as a dead man's device, which also triggers an emergency stop after a delay of four seconds if the incline deviates by more than 50 degrees. This device can be bypassed in the event of operational inclination (e.g. when coupling cars), however the travel lock is active during this period.
The status of the radio remote control is displayed using position lights on the side of the driver's cab. A steady light indicates normal operation, a slow flashing indicates a technical fault and a fast flashing indicates an active or passive emergency stop.
