An abrasion inspection apparatus includes: a first imaging unit that is installed on a side of a track, a vehicle traveling along the track, a guide wheel being installed on a side of the vehicle, the first imaging unit imaging an inside of the track via a telecentric lens; a second imaging unit that is installed in a vehicle traveling direction with respect to the first imaging unit on the side of the track and images the inside of the track via a telecentric lens; an image acquisition unit that acquires an image which is an image of a boundary of the guide wheel captured by the first imaging unit and is an image of a boundary on a first direction side in the vehicle traveling direction and an image which is an image of the boundary of the guide wheel captured by the second imaging unit at the same time as the capturing of the image by the first imaging unit and is an image of a boundary on an opposite side to the first direction side; and a guide wheel detection unit that detects an abrasion situation of the guide wheel according to a position of a boundary indicated in the images acquired by the image acquisition unit.

Abrasion inspection apparatus, abrasion inspection method, and program

A wear degree information acquiring device includes a power cable measuring unit which measures a distance from a predetermined position of a vehicle to a wearing part coming into contact with the vehicle among power cables configured to supply power to the vehicle, and a distance from the predetermined position of the vehicle to a non-wearing part not coming into contact with the vehicle among the power cables; and a wear degree information acquiring unit which acquires information indicating a degree of wear of the power cable, on the basis of a difference between the distance from the predetermined position of the vehicle to the wearing part and the distance from the predetermined position of the vehicle to the non-wearing part.

An abrasion inspection apparatus includes: a first imaging unit installed on a track along which a vehicle is traveling, a guide wheel installed on the vehicle, the first imaging unit imaging an inside of the track; a second imaging unit installed on the track in a vehicle traveling direction with respect to the first imaging unit and imaging the inside of the track; an image acquisition unit acquiring a first image of a boundary of the guide wheel captured by the first imaging unit on a first direction side in the vehicle traveling direction, and a second image of the boundary of the guide wheel captured by the second imaging unit at the same time on an opposite side to the first direction side; and a guide wheel detection unit detecting an abrasion situation of the guide wheel according to a position of a boundary indicated in the acquired images.

When power required by a load is larger than or equal to reception peak-cut power, a secondary battery discharges at a power rate that is larger or equal to a difference between the required power and the reception peak-cut power, and when the required power is smaller than or equal to the reception peak-cut power, the secondary battery discharges at a power rate that is smaller than or equal to the discharge improving power value. When power generated by the load is larger than or equal to transmission peak-cut power, the secondary battery charges at a power rate that is larger or equal to a difference between the regenerative power and the transmission peak-cut power, and when the regenerative power is smaller than or equal to the transmission peak-cut power, the secondary battery charges at a power rate that is smaller than or equal to the charge improving power value.

Charge and discharge control device, charge control method, discharge control method, and program

In a catenary-based transportation system which is provided with integrated power supply equipment having an electricity storage unit which stores electricity regenerated by vehicles traveling by electricity received from a catenary and supplies electricity to the catenary and the other power supply system which is a power supply system different from the electricity storage unit concerned, the performance of a rectifier of the other power supply system is determined based on a power-supplying contribution ratio &#x3b3; of the other power supply system so that the cost value of the integrated power supply equipment becomes lower than a target cost value.
