  • Patent number: 11156649
    Abstract: A transport unit, in which a rapid and precise fault localization can be achieved, includes an installation, a simulation device with an interface, through which current status data of the installation can be received, and a computing unit configured determine or acquire simulated status data on the basis of simulation data and the current status data, which are representative for a status of at least a part of the installation. A method for controlling an installation in a transportation unit, in particular a rail vehicle, is also provided.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 8, 2017
    Date of Patent: October 26, 2021
    Assignee: Siemens Mobility GmbH
    Inventors: Frank Dahms, Michael Dirauf
  • Patent number: 10268623
    Abstract: A method for operating a data transfer system includes connecting a first data transfer device to a first data line which is connected to a first data interface, connecting a second data transfer device to a second data line which is connected to a second data interface, and transferring data over the first data interface. In order to achieve reliable operation of the data transfer system, a transfer of data through the second data interface is prevented. A data transfer system and a rail vehicle set having a plurality of railcars and a data transfer system are also provided.
