FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a remote control system for a lifting apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.

  Hereinafter, the remote control system of the lifting apparatus according to the present invention will be described. The remote control system is a system that remotely controls a lifting device such as an elevator or an escalator, in other words, a system that causes the lifting device to execute desired contents remotely. The desired contents are, for example, operations such as landing calls from the landing, remote confirmation of confirmation items such as indicator display, and remote confirmation of requirements such as numerical values stored in the memory of the control microcomputer. In addition, although there exist an elevator, an escalator, etc. in a raising / lowering apparatus, below, the remote monitoring system of an elevator is demonstrated.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the remote control system includes an elevator 2 having a control microcomputer 20 and a portable terminal 3 that can communicate with the control microcomputer 20.

  In FIG. 1, one elevator 2 is shown, but the remote control system 1 of the present embodiment includes a plurality of elevators 2. Moreover, although the one portable terminal 3 is shown in FIG. 1, the remote control system 1 of this embodiment contains the several elevator 2. FIG.

  The portable terminal 3 is, for example, a portable terminal such as a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) or a notebook personal computer, a wearable terminal, or the like. Specifically, the portable terminal 3 is possessed by a user or the like (elevator user, elevator administrator, or the like).

  In addition, the mobile terminal 3 performs operations of the sensor unit 30 that acquires the human expression over time, the waveform conversion unit 31 that converts the human expression acquired by the sensor unit 30 into the first waveform data, and the operation of the elevator 2. An extraction unit 32 for extraction and a transmission unit 33 for transmitting the extraction result to the control microcomputer 20 are provided. In the remote control system 1 of the present embodiment, the mobile terminal 3 further includes an input unit 34 that can input various types of information, an output unit 35 that can output various types of information, and an extraction unit 32 that extracts the operation of the elevator 2. A storage unit 36 that stores second waveform data, third waveform data, and the like that is used at the time, and a registration unit 37 that can write the second waveform data and the third waveform data to the storage unit 36 are provided.

  The elevator 2 is operated, for example, by calling up a car from the landing (hereinafter referred to as “rising landing call”), calling a car descending from the landing (hereinafter referred to as “down landing call”), The destination floor of the car is designated as the first floor, the destination floor of the car is designated as the second floor, and the doors (car doors and landing doors) are opened and closed. The confirmation item for the elevator 2 is, for example, display of an indicator provided at the hall. The expression of a person is an expression of a person's voice, a person's movement (gesture), a person's posture (pose), or the like.

  The input unit 34 is, for example, an input key or a keyboard. The output unit 35 is, for example, a display. When the mobile terminal 3 includes a touch panel display, this display serves as the input unit 34 and the output unit 35.

  In the remote control system 1 of the present embodiment, when an output indicating that the elevator 2 is remotely controlled from the user or the like via the input unit 34 is input from the user or the like, the “operation mode for operating the elevator with human expressions” Alternatively, a display requesting to select one of “a registration mode in which a person's expression is registered in association with a new operation of the elevator or a new confirmation item for the elevator” is performed. When the operation mode or the registration mode is selected, the input unit 34 notifies the selected mode to the waveform conversion unit 31, the output unit 35, the registration unit 37, and the like.

  The remote control of the elevator 2 is, for example, control for making a landing call from a position away from the operation panel of the elevator 2 or confirming the display of the indicator, or not operating the operation panel of the elevator 2 directly. This is a control to make a hall call etc.

  When the operation mode is selected, the output unit 35 displays a message for requesting expression of a person or the like (for example, a message “Please make a registered sound” or “Perform a registered gesture”). Message is displayed). Further, in the operation mode, the output unit 35 displays this information when “information about a confirmation item based on the extraction result transmitted from the transmission unit 33” described later is transmitted from the control microcomputer 20.

  When the registration mode is selected, the output unit 35 displays a display requesting input of a new operation of the elevator to be registered in association with the human expression (for example, “Please select an operation to register from the following candidates” Message display) and display requesting input of new confirmation items for the elevator to be registered in association with human expressions (for example, a message display "Please select the confirmation items to register from the following candidates") . In the registration mode, the input unit 34 outputs this information to the registration unit 37 when information on new operations of these elevators or new confirmation items for these elevators is input.

  As described above, the sensor unit 30 can acquire a human expression, and outputs the acquired human expression to the waveform conversion unit 31 in both the operation mode and the registration mode. The sensor unit 30 includes, for example, a microphone (microphone) 300, an acceleration sensor 301, and a camera 302.

  The microphone 300 can acquire sound data corresponding to the sound collected over time, and outputs the acquired sound data to the waveform conversion unit 31. Specifically, the sound collected by the microphone 300 is a voice (such as a meaningful word (for example, “first floor”) or a meaningless utterance (for example, “ah”)), a user, or the like. Sounds of clapping hands, sounds of whistle possessed by users, etc.

  The acceleration sensor 301 is a sensor that can acquire acceleration data corresponding to the acceleration of the mobile terminal 3 acquired over time, and outputs the acquired acceleration data to the waveform conversion unit 31. Specifically, the acceleration sensor 301 detects acceleration data with respect to a motion that adds acceleration in a predetermined direction by moving the mobile terminal 3 (a gesture, for example, a motion in which the user shakes the mobile terminal a plurality of times by hand) or the like. To get.

  The camera 302 can acquire image data corresponding to an image obtained by imaging the surroundings over time, and outputs the acquired image data to the waveform conversion unit 31. Specifically, the image data acquired by the camera 302 is image data including a pose or gesture of a user or the like. More specifically, the pose of the user or the like is, for example, “a pose pointing up with an index finger” or the like, and the gesture of the user or the like is, for example, “an action of raising one hand” or “a movement of the head left and right or up and down”. , “Eye (pupil) left and right and up and down movement”, “blink and wink movement”, and the like.

  The waveform conversion unit 31 converts a human expression (for example, sound data, acceleration data, image data) acquired by the sensor unit 30 into first waveform data having a time axis in both the operation mode and the registration mode. To do. In the remote control system 1 of the present embodiment, the first waveform data includes sound waveform data having an axis representing the characteristics of the sound data and a time axis corresponding to the time at which the sound data was acquired, and acceleration data. Acceleration waveform data having an axis representing characteristics, a time axis corresponding to the time at which acceleration data was acquired, an axis representing characteristics of the image data, and a time axis corresponding to the time at which image data was acquired Image waveform data.

  Specifically, the waveform converter 31 converts the sound data acquired by the microphone 300 into sound waveform data having an axis representing the characteristics of the sound data and a time axis corresponding to the time at which the sound data was acquired. To do. The axis representing the characteristics of the sound data is, for example, an axis representing the frequency of the sound. In this case, the sound waveform data is data indicating a change in the frequency of the sound over time.

  The waveform converter 31 converts the acceleration data acquired by the acceleration sensor 301 into acceleration waveform data having an axis representing the characteristics of the acceleration data and a time axis corresponding to the time at which the acceleration data was acquired. . The axis representing the acceleration characteristic is, for example, an axis representing the magnitude of the acceleration. In this case, the acceleration waveform data is data indicating a change with time of the acceleration.

  Furthermore, the waveform conversion unit 31 converts the image data acquired by the camera 302 into image waveform data having an axis representing the characteristics of the image data and a time axis corresponding to the time at which the image data was acquired. The axes representing the characteristics of the image data are, for example, the axes representing the saturation of the image and the axes representing the brightness of the image. In this case, the image waveform data is data indicating the temporal change in the saturation and brightness of the image. It is. The axis representing the characteristics of the image data is, for example, an axis indicating the position of a specific part in the image. In this case, the image waveform data is data indicating the locus of the specific part in the image.

  Specifically, when the image waveform data indicates a trajectory of a specific part in the image, the waveform converting unit 31 detects the contour of the image and acquires each vertex (such as a user's head or fingertip) as a point. The temporal change in the vertical direction (height) of this point and the temporal change in this point in the horizontal direction are used as image waveform data.

  In the remote control system 1 of the present embodiment, the waveform conversion unit 31 outputs the converted first waveform data to the extraction unit 32 in the operation mode. In addition, the waveform conversion unit 31 outputs the converted first waveform data to the registration unit 37 in the registration mode.

  The storage unit 36 stores, for example, a plurality of second waveform data associated with the operation of the elevator 2 and a plurality of third waveform data associated with confirmation items for the elevator 2 in advance. The storage unit 36 can write the second waveform data and can write the third waveform data. In the remote control system 1 of the present embodiment, the storage unit 36 stores both the second waveform data and the third waveform data in a rewritable manner. The storage unit 36 stores the second waveform data and the third waveform data together.

  Specifically, the storage unit 36 stores the operation “call for the rising hall”, the sound “climbing”, the gesture “the action of raising one hand”, and the pose “the pose pointing upward with the index finger” in association with each other. . In addition, the storage unit 36 stores the operation “call down the landing”, the sound “pick”, the gesture “the action of lowering one hand”, and the pose “the pose pointing downward with the index finger” in association with each other. Further, the storage unit 36 stores a confirmation item “indicator”, a sound “display”, a gesture “an action of shaking one hand left and right”, and a pose “a pose holding one hand” in association with each other.

  In the operation mode, the extraction unit 32 compares the first waveform data converted by the waveform conversion unit 31 with the second waveform data in the storage unit 36. When the first waveform data and the second waveform data match as a result of the comparison, the extraction unit 32 checks the operation of the elevator and the elevator stored in the storage unit 36 in association with the matched second waveform data. And the extraction result (elevator operation and confirmation items for the elevator) is output to the transmission unit 33.

  When the first waveform data and the second waveform data match as a result of the comparison, for example, the extraction unit 32 may cause the output unit 35 to perform a message indicating that the operation has been recognized. In the case where the first waveform data and the second waveform data do not match, for example, the output unit 35 displays a request for re-expressing a person (for example, “Operation failed. Registered again. "Please make a sound." Or "Your operation failed. Please do the registered gesture again."

  The transmission unit 33 transmits the extraction result of the extraction unit 32 to the control microcomputer 20 in the operation mode. In the remote control system 1 of this embodiment, the transmission part 33 transmits the extraction result of the extraction part 32 to the control microcomputer 20 via the receiver 21 mentioned later in operation mode. In the remote control system 1 of the present embodiment, the transmission unit 33 can communicate with the control microcomputer 20 via the receiver 21 by, for example, infrared communication.

  When a new operation of the elevator is output from the input unit 34 in the registration mode, the registration unit 37 associates the first waveform data converted by the waveform conversion unit 31 as the second waveform data with the operation of the elevator. Write to the storage unit 36. In addition, when a new elevator operation is output from the input unit 34 in the registration mode, the registration unit 37 sets the first waveform data converted by the waveform conversion unit 31 as the second waveform data to the new operation. Write to the storage unit 36 in association. Furthermore, in the registration mode, when a new confirmation item for the elevator is output from the input unit 34 in the registration mode, the registration unit 37 sets the first waveform data converted by the waveform conversion unit 31 as the third waveform data, and newly registers the elevator 2. The information is written in the storage unit 36 in association with the confirmation items.

  The elevator 2 includes, in addition to the control microcomputer 20 that controls the elevator 2, a receiver 21 connected to the control microcomputer 20 and a car that moves up and down in a hoistway provided in a building where the elevator 2 is installed. And an operation unit (not shown).

  In the elevator 2, one receiver 21 is shown in FIG. 1, but the elevator 2 has a plurality of receivers 21. When the elevator 2 is installed in a building having a plurality of levels, the receiver 21 is installed, for example, around the control microcomputer 20, around the car, and at each level of the building.

  The receiver 21 can receive the extraction result output from the transmission unit 33 in the operation mode. Further, when receiving the extraction result output from the transmission unit 33, the receiver 21 outputs the received extraction result to the control microcomputer 20.

  When a plurality of receivers 21 receive the extraction results, each receiver 21 can output the magnitude of the received signal (a signal indicating the received extraction results) to the control microcomputer 20 in addition to the extraction results. There may be. In this case, the control microcomputer 20 may adopt the extraction result output by the receiver 21 that has received the largest signal among the plurality of receivers 21. When the receiver 21 that has received the largest signal is a receiver 21 installed in a hierarchy, in addition to the received extraction result and the magnitude of the received signal, information indicating this hierarchy is sent to the control microcomputer 20. It may be output.

  When the extraction result transmitted from the transmission unit 33 is an operation of the elevator 2, the control microcomputer 20 controls the elevator 2 based on the extraction result. Specifically, in the operation mode, when the control unit 20 transmits the extraction result of “ascending landing call” and the information indicating the hierarchy in the operation mode, the control microcomputer 20 converts the car into the hierarchy (the information transmitted from the receiver 21). After moving to the level shown) and stopping, the doors (the car door and the landing door) are opened and closed, and the car is raised after a certain period of time.

  Further, when the extraction result from the transmission unit 33 is a confirmation item for the elevator 2, the control microcomputer 20 transmits information about the confirmation item based on the extraction result to the mobile terminal 3. Specifically, when the information indicating the extraction result and the hierarchy of the “indicator” is transmitted from the transmission unit 33, the control microcomputer 20 includes information related to the display of the indicator (for example, “the basket is stopped on the third floor”). Information) is transmitted to the portable terminal 3.

  In the remote control system 1 described above, the control microcomputer 20 controls the elevator 2 based on the operation corresponding to the human expression, or sends information related to the confirmation items corresponding to the human expression from the control microcomputer 20 to the portable terminal 3. Or send. In other words, in the remote control system 1, a desired content (for example, a hall call or the like) can be transmitted to the elevator 2 remotely (for example, without operating the operation panel directly from a position away from the operation panel of the elevator 2). ) Can be executed.

  In the remote control system 1 of the present embodiment, the second waveform data can be added to the storage unit 36. Therefore, by writing the second waveform data related to the operation of the elevator, a new operation of the elevator (in the storage unit 36) can be performed remotely. Elevator operation that is not stored in advance can be executed. In addition, since the third waveform data can be added to the storage unit 36, new confirmation items for the elevator 2 (for elevators not previously stored in the storage unit 36) can be obtained by writing the third waveform data related to the confirmation items for the elevator. The confirmation item can also be transmitted from the control microcomputer 20 to the portable terminal 3.

  Further, in the remote control system 1 of the present embodiment, the elevator 2 can execute desired contents by expressing a sound by a person, a person's movement (gesture), or a person's posture (pose).

  Furthermore, in the remote control system 1 according to the present embodiment, the user or the like can associate the expression of the desired person with the operation of the elevator 2 and the confirmation items for the elevator 2, so that the expression other than the preset person expression In addition, even when an expression that is easy for a user or the like to be performed, the elevator 2 can execute desired contents.

  The remote control system of the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and it is needless to say that various modifications can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention. For example, the configuration of another embodiment can be added to the configuration of a certain embodiment, and a part of the configuration of a certain embodiment can be replaced with the configuration of another embodiment. Furthermore, a part of the configuration of an embodiment can be deleted.

  For example, an engineer in charge of elevator maintenance may be possessed by the mobile terminal 3. In this case, the storage unit 36 may store the third waveform data in association with the requirements for the elevator instead of the confirmation items for the elevator. The requirements for the elevator are, for example, information such as numerical values in various memories of the control microcomputer. In this case, the extraction unit 32 compares the first waveform data converted by the waveform conversion unit 31 with the third waveform data in the storage unit 36 in the operation mode, and as a result, the first waveform data and the first waveform data are compared. When the three waveform data match, the requirements for the elevator stored in association with the matched third waveform data in the storage unit 36 are extracted, and this extraction result (the requirements for the elevator) is output to the transmission unit 33. To do. Further, when the transmission unit 33 transmits the extraction result of the extraction unit 32 to the control microcomputer 20 in the operation mode, the control microcomputer 20 transmits this request for the elevator 2 as the extraction result from the transmission unit 33. Information about the requirement based on the extraction result is transmitted to the mobile terminal 3. Specifically, when the information indicating the extraction result and the hierarchy of “the numerical value in the memory corresponding to the specific address” is transmitted from the transmission unit 33, the control microcomputer 20 transmits information based on the extraction result (for example, “address a (Information that the numerical value in the memory corresponding to “00100”) is transmitted to the portable terminal 3.

  As described above, in the remote control system 1, information related to the requirement corresponding to the expression of the person is transmitted from the control microcomputer 20 to the portable terminal 3. In other words, it is possible to cause the elevator 2 to execute desired contents remotely. Specifically, the technician can grasp the status of the elevator 2 by confirming the requirements on the mobile terminal 3.

  In this case, when a new requirement for the elevator is output from the input unit 34 in the registration mode, the registration unit 37 uses the first waveform data converted by the waveform conversion unit 31 as third waveform data. You may write in the memory | storage part 36 linked | related with the requirement with respect to an elevator. Accordingly, since the third waveform data can be added to the storage unit 36, new requirements for the elevator (not previously stored in the storage unit 36 are remotely stored by writing the third waveform data related to the requirements for the elevator. Information on requirements for elevator 2) can be obtained.

  Note that the storage unit 36 may store the third waveform data in association with both the confirmation items for the elevator and the requirements for the elevator.

  Further, after acquiring the extraction result from the mobile terminal 3, the control microcomputer 20 outputs the control result in the elevator 2 (for example, the control result such as “the rising hall call was executed”) to the mobile terminal 3. Also good. The portable terminal 3 may output the control result output from the control microcomputer 20 through character display or image display by the output unit 35. Moreover, when the output part 35 contains a speaker, you may output the control result output from the control microcomputer 20 with an audio | voice. In this case, the user or the like can check the control result of the elevator 2 based on the human expression by using the portable terminal 3.

  The storage unit 36 only needs to store one elevator operation and at least one of sound expression, gesture, and pose in association with each other. The storage unit 36 may associate and store one elevator operation and a plurality of sound expressions, associate one elevator operation and a plurality of gestures, or associate one elevator operation and a plurality of poses. . The storage unit 36 may store the operation of one elevator and only one sound expression in association with each other.

  Furthermore, the storage unit 36 may store an elevator operation and at least two combinations of sounds, gestures, and poses in association with each other. Specifically, the storage unit 36 may store the operation “call for rising platform” and the combination of the sound “climbing” and the gesture “the action of raising one hand” in association with each other. In this case, the user or the like utters “climbing” and raises one hand to perform the ascending landing call.

  The storage unit 36 may store a plurality of elevator operations in association with one of sound, gesture, and pose. Specifically, the storage unit 36 may store the operation “call up ascending landing” and the operation “designate the destination floor of the car as the second floor” and the sound “climb to the second floor” in association with each other.

  The above modifications can be similarly applied to confirmation items and requirements for elevators, sounds, gestures, and poses.

  The storage unit 36 may store a combination of at least two of the elevator operation, the confirmation items for the elevator, and the requirements for the elevator, and at least one of sound, gesture, and pose.

  The mobile terminal 3 may store the second waveform data and the third waveform data individually. Specifically, a storage unit of the mobile terminal 3 stores the operation of the elevator and the second waveform data in association with each other, and another storage unit of the mobile terminal 3 determines whether there are confirmation items for the elevator or requirements for the elevator. The waveform data may be stored in association with each other. The storage unit 36 may be provided in a different terminal (server or the like) different from the mobile terminal 3. Even in such a case, the user or the like can remotely control the elevator 2 using the mobile terminal 3.

  The sensor unit 30 may have any one of the microphone 300, the acceleration sensor 301, the camera 302, and the gyro sensor. The gyro sensor is a sensor that can acquire inclination data corresponding to the inclination of the mobile terminal 3 acquired over time, and outputs the acquired inclination data to the waveform converter 31. In this case, the first waveform data includes gradient waveform data having an axis representing the characteristic of the gradient data and a time axis corresponding to the time at which the gradient data was acquired. When the gradient data is output from the gyro sensor, the waveform conversion unit 31 converts the gradient data into gradient waveform data having an axis representing the characteristic of the gradient data and a time axis corresponding to the time at which the gradient data was acquired. The axis representing the characteristic of the inclination is, for example, an axis representing the magnitude of the inclination. In this case, the first waveform data is data indicating a change in inclination with time. Specifically, the movement in which the gyro sensor acquires the tilt data is a movement in which the user or the like tilts the portable terminal 3 (for example, a movement in which the user or the like tilts the portable terminal 3 held by a hand at a predetermined angle). .

  The first waveform data may include at least one of sound waveform data, acceleration waveform data, image waveform data, and tilt waveform data.

  Further, the sound waveform data may be a waveform of sound data itself, and the acceleration waveform data may be a waveform of acceleration data itself. In this case, the extracting unit 32 compares the waveform of the sound data and the waveform of acceleration data acquired by the sensor unit with the waveform of the sound data and the waveform of acceleration data stored in the storage unit 36. Note that the “matching between the first waveform data and the second waveform data” is not limited to a perfect match, and may include a case where they substantially match.

  The transmission unit 33 may be capable of communicating with the control microcomputer 20 by Wi-Fi or the like in the building where the elevator 2 is installed. In this case, the position information of the mobile terminal 3 (for example, information indicating which level the mobile terminal 3 is located) may be output to the receiver 21 or the control microcomputer 20.

  Although the remote control system 1 of the said embodiment was intended for the elevator as the lifting device, it may be intended for the escalator.
