Ultrasonic Detection Method of Abrasion of Double Slippers Pantograph

Using ultrasonic sensor measures the pantograph wear value by using DSP TMS320LF2407A to control pantograph sensor and then the collected data is send to the host.This kind of system should be able to detect front slipper and rear one,because most electric locomotives are adopted by double slippers pantograph today.On the basis of detecting single slippers pantograph,abrasion of double slippers pantograph can be realized by modifying the control program of microcomputer.
