Abstract
A system is provided for detecting an abnormal gait condition of a railway vehicle, including a first control chain and a second control chain connected to a digital output adapted to supply or not supply power to a load. The first control chain comprises a first sensor for detecting first detection data of movement of the railway vehicle, and a first control unit for receiving the first detection data, executing a first program for checking an abnormal gait and for controlling first electronic control means for supplying or not supplying power to the load. The second control chain comprises a second sensor for detecting second detection data of movement of the railway vehicle, and a second control unit for receiving the second detection data, executing a second program for checking an abnormal gait, and for controlling second electronic control means for supplying or not supplying power to the load.
