Abstract: A facility inspection system prevents a normal part from being detected as an abnormal part caused by a deviation in an alignment due to a presence/absence of a moving object in detecting the abnormal part in a surrounding environment of a vehicle moving on a track. The system includes a photographing device, storage device, separation unit, an alignment unit, and a extraction unit. The photographing device photographs the surrounding environment of the moving vehicle. The storage device stores a reference alignment point cloud and a reference difference-extraction point cloud for each position on the track. The separation unit separates the alignment point cloud from a three-dimensional point cloud. The alignment unit aligns the reference alignment point cloud and the alignment point cloud and outputs alignment information. The extraction unit extracts a difference between the three-dimensional point cloud deformed based on the alignment information and the reference difference-extraction point cloud.

Abstract: Effectively control the temperature of a control unit of a railway equipment inspecting and measuring apparatus, and install the control unit of the railway equipment inspecting and measuring on the roof of the passenger car. The first space is formed between the control unit and the heat insulating case. The second space is formed between the heat insulating case and the cover. In the first space, heat is conducted between the air in the first space and the heat exchange element by the first heat conducting member, and the first fan causes circulation of the air in the first space. In the second space, heat is conducted between the air in the second space and the heat exchange element by the second heat conducting member, and the air inside the second space is diffused by blowing the air from a suction port into the second space with the second fan.

Abstract: Provided is a rail inspection system capable of accurately detecting a defect of a railroad rail. The system includes: a sensor part group that has a plurality of sensor parts having receiver coils, and first oscillator coils and second oscillator coils corresponding to the receiver coils being arranged in a line parallel in a width direction of a railroad rail to be inspected; an oscillation part that supplies an oscillation signal to each of the first oscillator coils and the second oscillator coils; and a detection part group that has a plurality of detection parts to detect, with respect to an output signal from each of the receiver coils when the sensor part group moves in a laying direction of the railroad rail, a first inspection signal corresponding to a first phase of the output signal and a second inspection signal corresponding to a second phase of the output signal.

Abstract: An overhead wire mutual separating situation measuring apparatus detects separation of overhead wires with high accuracy in a manner that the overhead wires are placed with a predetermined amount of deviation. A light projecting unit irradiates overhead wires above a railway with a measuring light spreading in a strip shape in the width direction of the railway. Light receiving units receive light reflected by all or a portion of the overhead wires from the measuring light to output a measurement signal indicative of a contour of the overhead wires. Each light receiving unit mutually partially overlaps a measurement area such that the overhead wires within a predetermined measurement area fall within the measurement visual area of at least one light receiving unit. The processing device processes the measurement signal from each light receiving unit to detect a mutual separation of the overhead wires and the positional deviation thereof.

Abstract: In a rail inspection system, a positional deviation can be detected with accuracy. The rail inspection system includes a first sensor unit which is disposed to face a rail for a vehicle, and includes at least one receiver coil and at least one oscillation coil which are arranged in an arrangement direction intersecting with a layout direction of the rail, an AC voltage source which applies AC voltage to the oscillation coil, and a displacement detection unit which detects a displacement between the rail and the first sensor unit based on an induced voltage of the receiver coil. The first sensor unit is configured such that, when the displacement is a first displacement, a first maximum value appears in the induced voltage, and when the displacement is a second displacement, a second maximum value of which a phase is reversed against the first maximum value appears in the induced voltage.

Abstract: An object of the invention is to measure an outside size of the vehicle accurately while running the vehicle. A plurality of the 1st sensors 25, 26 irradiate inspection lights to a plurality of places (4a) of the vehicle 4 of a railroad and output measurement signals which show positions and distances by receiving lights from a plurality of the places of the vehicle 4. The 2nd sensor 27, 28 or 29 irradiates an inspection light to an outside surface of the vehicle 4 and outputs a measurement signal which shows a position and a distance by receiving a light from the outside surface of the vehicle 4. The control equipment 30 or the processing equipment 41 processes the measurement signals outputted from a plurality of the 1st sensors 25, 26, detects positions and heights of a plurality of the places of the vehicle 4, processes the measurement signal outputted from the 2nd sensor 27, 28 or 29, and detects the outside size of the vehicle 4.
