专利说明:
The invention relates to the field of electrical equipment of the computer or data concentrator type, intended to be connected to tachometers. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION A tachometer, intended to measure a speed of rotation of a wheel of an undercarriage of an aircraft, conventionally comprises a rotor integral in rotation with the wheel, a stator and a rotation speed sensor. The speed sensor includes a winding positioned on the stator. The winding is connected via a cable to a computer (or to any other electrical equipment, for example to a data concentrator). The computer thus acquires an electrical measurement signal whose voltage and / or frequency are representative of the speed of rotation of the wheel. Generally, a plurality of cables coming from a plurality of tachometers are grouped in a harness which travels from the undercarriage to the interior of the fuselage of the aircraft where the computer is positioned. However, it is possible that one of the tires on the undercarriage wheels burst. Tire debris is then projected and can damage the harness and cut one of the cables. It is then necessary to detect the loss of the tachometer connected to the severed cable. It is noted that a zero voltage of the electrical measurement signal can correspond to a zero rotation speed and therefore to a “normal” and correctly measured rotation speed measurement. We also note that it is possible that one of the wheels, which is spinning, has a zero speed of rotation then the speed of rotation of the other wheels is not zero. The simple detection of a zero tension, even associated with a comparison with the rotational speeds of other wheels, is therefore not sufficient to detect a cut cable. It has been envisaged to redundant the redundancy calculator dedicated to wheels, for each tachometer, of rotational speed. This requires doubling the number of inputs for the rotation speed measurement and adds additional mass and bulk to each tachometer. This redundancy also involves using two cables instead of one between the speedometer and the computer. It has also been envisaged to redundate only the cable which connects the tachometer to the computer. This redundancy also adds additional mass and creates loops in the electrical circuit formed by the cables and the computer, which is problematic for compliance with electromagnetic compatibility requirements. It should be noted that, in the two solutions which have just been described, the loss of the two cables connecting the tachometer to the computer is not detected. Finally, it has been envisaged to regularly test the continuity of the cable and the winding by injecting a weak signal into the cable and into the winding. This however involves regularly deactivating the acquisition of the electrical measurement signal, and therefore of the speed of rotation of the wheel, which is not acceptable in a braking system which implements a traction control function. OBJECT OF THE INVENTION The object of the invention is to detect a break in a cable connecting a tachometer to electrical equipment in a simple, space-saving manner and without deactivating the measurement of the speed of rotation of the wheel. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION With a view to achieving this goal, electrical equipment of the calculator or data concentrator type is proposed, intended to be connected to a tachometer via a cable comprising a measurement wire and a test wire, the electrical equipment comprising an input device to which the measurement wire can be connected and a test input to which the test wire can be connected, measurement acquisition components connected to the measurement input and arranged to acquire an electrical measurement signal present on the measuring wire and produced by the tachometer, test acquisition components connected to the test input and arranged to detect whether the test wire is in open circuit or not, and processing components arranged to detect a break in the measurement wire if the test wire is in open circuit. A break in the measurement wire is therefore detected by detecting an open circuit of the test wire. This solution is simple to implement and compact, since it only requires the addition of the test wire in the cable which includes the measurement wire connected to the tachometer. This solution does not require deactivating the acquisition of the electrical measurement signal, since the test wire, which allows the detection of the break of the measurement wire, is distinct from the measurement wire. A system is also proposed comprising a tachometer, a cable comprising a measurement wire and a test wire, and electrical equipment such as that which has just been described, the cable comprising a first end connected to the tachometer and a second end. connected to electrical equipment. The invention will be better understood in the light of the following description of particular non-limiting embodiments of the invention. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS Reference will be made to the appended drawings, among which: - Figure 1 shows an electrical equipment according to a first embodiment of the invention, a cable and a tachometer; - Figure 2 shows test acquisition components of the electrical equipment according to the first embodiment of the invention; - Figure 3 shows test acquisition components of electrical equipment according to a second embodiment of the invention; - Figure 4 shows an electrical equipment according to a third embodiment of the invention, a cable and a tachometer; - Figure 5 shows an electrical equipment according to a fourth embodiment of the invention, a cable and a tachometer. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION With reference to FIG. 1, the electrical equipment according to a first embodiment of the invention is here a computer 1. The computer 1 is connected to a tachometer 2 via a cable 3. The computer 1 is located in the hold of an aircraft. The computer 1 comprises a casing 4 in which are integrated measurement acquisition components 7, test acquisition components 8 and processing components 9. The computer 1 has a first measurement input 11 and a second measurement input 12. The first measurement input 11 and the second measurement input 12 are connected to the measurement acquisition components 7. The computer 1 also has a test input 14. Test input 14 is a discrete input. The test input 14 is connected to the test acquisition components 8. The test acquisition components 8 are visible in FIG. 2. The test acquisition components 8 are here components for acquiring a discrete signal. The test acquisition components 8 include a resistance 17 and a resistance 18 connected to the entrance of test 14, a voltage source of reference 19 connected via a resistance 21 at one point P located between the resistance 17 and resistance 18, and a resistance 22 connected between resistance 18 and a mass electrical 23 of the computer 1. The test acquisition components 8 also comprise a low-pass filter 25 and a hysteresis comparator 26. An input of the low-pass filter 25 is connected to the resistor 18 and to the resistor 22. An output of the low-pass filter 25 is connected to an input of the hysteresis comparator 26. The electrical ground 23 is connected to the casing 4 of the computer 1. The tachometer 2 is intended to measure the speed of rotation of a wheel of an undercarriage of the aircraft. The tachometer 2 comprises a casing 30 in which a speed sensor is integrated. The rotational speed sensor comprises a rotor and a stator which includes a winding 31. The cable 3 is here positioned, over part of its length, in a harness which includes a plurality of similar cables connected to tachometers. The harness travels from the undercarriage to the hold of the aircraft. The cable 3 has a first end 33 and a second end 34. The first end 33 is connected to the tachometer 2. The second end 34 is connected to the computer 1. The cable 3 comprises a first measurement wire 36, a second measurement wire 37 and a test wire 38. The first measurement wire 36, the second measurement wire 37 and the test wire 38 are twisted, that is to say that is, they are helically wrapped around each other. At the first end 33 of the cable 3, the first measurement wire 36 is connected to a first terminal of the winding 31 of the stator. The second measurement wire 37 is connected to a second terminal of the winding 31 of the stator. The test wire 38 is connected in turn to a mass 39 of the tachometer 2 via a shield of the harness or of the cable 3, or else via a mechanical mass of the tachometer 2 if the casing 30 of the tachometer 2 is referenced to the mass. At the second end 34 of the cable 3, the first measurement wire 36 is connected to the first measurement input 11 of the computer 1, the second measurement wire 37 is connected to the second measurement input 12, and the measurement wire test 38 is connected to test input 14. The measurement acquisition components 7 of the computer 1 acquire an electrical measurement signal whose voltage and / or frequency are representative of the speed of rotation of the wheel. The test acquisition components 8, for their part, compare a test voltage Vt at the input of the hysteresis comparator 26 with a detection threshold, in this case a predetermined voltage threshold. The test voltage Vt is representative of the impedance applied to the test input 14. If the test voltage Vt is less than the predetermined voltage threshold, the test acquisition components 8 detect that a discrete grounding signal is applied to the test input 14. The grounding corresponds to the connection of the test wire 38 to the ground 39 of the tachometer 2 at the first end 33 of the cable 3. The processing components 9 then detect a continuity of the test wire 38, and therefore that the test wire 38 is not broken. The processing components 9 therefore do not detect a break in the first measurement wire 36 or the second measurement wire 37. In fact, due to the proximity between the test wire 38 and the first measurement wire 36 and the second wire of measurement 37, a break in the test wire 38, due for example to an explosion of a tire, would most likely have been accompanied by a break in the first measurement wire 36 or the second measurement wire 37. If the test voltage Vt is greater than or equal to the predetermined voltage threshold, the test acquisition components 8 detect that a discrete open circuit signal is applied to the test input 14. The open circuit corresponds to a circuit open test lead 38. The processing components 9 then detect a break in the test wire 38, and therefore a break in the first measuring wire 36 and / or the second measuring wire 37. The processing components 9 invalidate rotational speed measurements from the signal measurement, deactivate speedometer 2 and generate a fault message. Referring to Figure 3, the electrical equipment according to a second embodiment of the invention is again a computer. The computer is connected to a tachometer via a cable. The speedometer and the cable are similar to those just described. The computer this time has a first test input 101 and a second test input 102. The first test input 101 and the second test input 102 are both discrete inputs. The computer comprises test acquisition components 103. The test acquisition components 103 are again components for acquiring a discrete signal. The test acquisition components 103 include an operational amplifier 104, a low-pass filter 105 and a hysteresis comparator 106. A non-inverting input of the operational amplifier 104 is connected to the first test input 101 via a resistor 107. An inverting input of the operational amplifier 104 is connected to the second test input 102 via a resistor 108. The test lead is connected to the first test input 101. The second test input 102 is connected to an electrical ground 110 of the computer, for example via the computer housing or via the shield of the harness or the cable. A first reference current source 111 is connected to the non-inverting input via a resistor 112. A second reference current source 113 is connected to the inverting input via a resistor 114. An output of the operational amplifier 104 is connected to an input of the low-pass filter 105. An output of the low-pass filter 105 is connected to an input of the hysteresis comparator 106. Again, the test acquisition components 103 compare a test voltage Vt at the input of the hysteresis comparator 106 with a predetermined voltage threshold. The test voltage Vt is representative of the impedance applied between the first test input 101 and the second test input 102. If the test voltage Vt is less than the predetermined voltage threshold, the test acquisition components 103 detect that a discrete grounding signal is applied to the first test input 101. The processing components then detect continuity of the test lead, and therefore that the test lead is not broken. The processing components therefore do not detect a break in the first measuring wire or the second measuring wire. If the test voltage Vt is greater than the predetermined voltage threshold, the test acquisition components 103 detect that a discrete open circuit signal is applied to the first test input 101. The processing components then detect a break in the test wire, and therefore a break in the first and / or the second measurement wire. The processing invalidates the measurement of the measurement wire components of the speed of rotation coming from the electrical measurement signal, deactivates the tachometer and generates a fault message. With reference to FIG. 4, the electrical equipment according to a third embodiment of the invention is a computer 201. The computer 201 is connected to a tachometer 202 via a cable 203. The tachometer 202 has an electrical circuit on Which one is mounted resistance 204. The thread of test 205 is connected to ground 206 of tachometer 202 via the resistance 204. The computer 201 comprises an entrance of test 207 connected to the test wire 205. The test acquisition components 208 are this time resistance measurement components. The test acquisition components 208 comprise a first input 210 connected to the test input 207 of the computer 201, and a second input 211 connected to an electrical ground of the computer 201. The test acquisition components 208 measure a test resistance between the first input 210 and the second input 211, and therefore between the test input 207 and the electrical ground of the computer 201. If the test resistance is less than a predetermined resistance threshold, the test acquisition components 208 do not detect that the test wire 205 is in open circuit. The processing components 212 detect that the test lead 205 is not broken. If the test resistance is greater than or equal to a predetermined resistance threshold, the test acquisition components 208 detect that the test wire 205 is in open circuit. The processing components 212 then detect a break in the test wire 205, and therefore a break in the first measuring wire and / or the second measuring wire. The processing components 212 invalidate rotational speed measurements from the electrical measurement signal, deactivate the tachometer and generate a fault message. With reference to FIG. 5, the electrical equipment according to a fourth embodiment of the invention is a computer 301. The computer 301 is connected to a tachometer 302 via a cable 303. In the fourth embodiment of the invention, the cable 303 this time comprises a first test wire 305 and a second test wire 306. The first test wire 305 is connected, at a first end 307 of the cable 303, to a first terminal of a resistor 308 of the tachometer 302. The second test wire 306 is connected, at the level of the first end 307 of the cable 303, to a second terminal of the resistor 308. The first test wire 305 is connected, at a second end 309 of the cable 303, to a first test input 311 of the computer 301. The second test wire 306 is connected, at the second end 309 of the cable 303, to a second test input 312 of the computer 301. The test acquisition components 314 comprise a first input 315 connected to the first test input 311 of the computer 301, and a second input 316 connected to the second test input 312 of the computer 301. The test acquisition components 314 are again resistance measurement components. The test acquisition components 314 measure a test resistance between the first input 315 and the second input 316, and therefore between the first test input 311 and the second test input 312 of the computer 301. If the test resistance is within a valid range of resistance values, the processing components 317 detect that the first test wire 305 and the second test wire 306 are not broken. If the test resistance is not within the valid range of resistance values, the processing components 317 detect that the first test lead 305 and / or the second test lead 306 is broken. The processing components 317 then detect a break in the first measuring wire 318 and / or the second measuring wire 319. The processing components 317 invalidate rotational speed measurements from the electrical measurement signal, deactivate the tachometer and generate a fault message. Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiments described but encompasses any variant coming within the scope of the invention as defined by the claims. Although the electrical equipment described here is computer, this electrical equipment could be different equipment, for example a data concentrator.
