Development of measuring system of dynamic characteristics for tilting pantograph on the Korean Tilting Train

한국형 틸팅열차의 틸팅 판토그래프 동특성 측정시스템 개발

The current collection system, pantograph, is one of the important subsystems in electric train system, because of it's fatal function and role of supplying power to the train system. Generally, the function of current collection system is evaluated by loss of contact rate between pantograph and contact wire in catenary by measuring arcs, or by statistical method of evaluating minimum mean contact force. The Korean Tiling Train(TTX) has been manufactured by KRRI and Korean domestic companies and is preparing the trial running test of itself. In this paper, we introduce our successful achievement, measuring system and applied methods of dynamic characteristics for the tilting pantograph, developed of by our own technology.
