INSTALLATION UND VERFAHREN ZUM MESSEN VON ROLLPARAMETERN DURCH KÜNSTLICHES SEHEN BEI EISENBAHNFAHRZEUGRÄDERN

Installation and process for measuring rolling parameters by means of artificial vision on wheels of railway vehicles. The installation comprises a rolling steel slab (2) with its guard rail, a wheel-position sensor (9), a laser generator (5), a camera (6), a controller (10) for illuminating and capturing the image, artificial-vision electronic equipment (11), a control computer (8) and a monitor (13). An interior illumination mirror interacts with the laser generator to obtain the profile of the wheel. The process consists in causing the wheel to run on the steel slab, activating the position sensor, throwing out a beam of laser light onto the wheel and generating an image corresponding to its profile or to its diameter, capturing this image and sending it to the analysis equipment, and transmitting the results of the analysis to the computer for it to process them and visualize them on the monitor.
