・ Application examples
First, an example to which the present invention is applied will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a switch 10 according to the first embodiment of the present invention. The switch is, for example, a push button type switch. In the following embodiment, a push button type switch is used as a specific example of control, but the present invention can be applied to control of other operation switches.
 スイッチ10は、操作部110と、姿勢検知センサ部120と、制御部130と、送信部140と、表示部150とを備える。なお、姿勢検知センサ部120は、例えば、ジャイロセンサであり、物体の姿勢、角速度、角加速度等を検出できる。この姿勢検知センサ部120を用いることによって、スイッチ10の姿勢を検出できる。 The switch 10 includes an operation unit 110, an attitude detection sensor unit 120, a control unit 130, a transmission unit 140, and a display unit 150. The posture detection sensor unit 120 is, for example, a gyro sensor, and can detect the posture, angular velocity, angular acceleration, and the like of an object. By using this posture detection sensor unit 120, the posture of the switch 10 can be detected.
 姿勢検知センサ部120は、スイッチ10の姿勢を検出する。例えば、スイッチ10の操作部110を上向きにした状態(以下、第1状態)では、姿勢検知センサ部120は、第1状態の姿勢検知信号を制御部130に出力する。制御部130は、第1状態の姿勢検知信号を元に、個体識別データID1を生成する。 The attitude detection sensor unit 120 detects the attitude of the switch 10. For example, in a state where the operation unit 110 of the switch 10 is faced upward (hereinafter referred to as a first state), the posture detection sensor unit 120 outputs a posture detection signal in the first state to the control unit 130. The control unit 130 generates the individual identification data ID1 based on the posture detection signal in the first state.
 なお、個体識別データとは、制御対象機器の制御を行うための識別用の信号であり、制御機器は、受信機20が受信した個体識別データによって制御を切り替えることができる。 The individual identification data is an identification signal for controlling the device to be controlled, and the control device can switch control according to the individual identification data received by the receiver 20.
 操作部110は、入力操作が行われた信号(入力信号)を制御部130に出力する。この入力信号をトリガとして、制御部130は、送信部140および表示部150に個体識別データID1を出力する。 The operation unit 110 outputs a signal (input signal) on which an input operation has been performed to the control unit 130. Using this input signal as a trigger, the control unit 130 outputs the individual identification data ID1 to the transmission unit 140 and the display unit 150.
 送信部140は、制御部130から受信した個体識別データID1を図示しない受信機20に送信する。送信部140と受信機20との通信は、有線であっても良いし、無線であっても良い。受信機20は、個体識別データID1、例えば、受信機20の第1ポートをONにする信号を受信する。制御機器は、この個体識別データID1に基づき、PLCの制御を実行する。なお、送信部140と受信機20とが無線で通信する構成であれば、ケーブル等を用いて接続する必要が無いため、スイッチに接続されるケーブルが不要となり、コストダウンが図れる。また、ケーブルの配線スペースが不要となり、省スペース効果が得られる。 The transmission unit 140 transmits the individual identification data ID1 received from the control unit 130 to the receiver 20 (not shown). Communication between the transmission unit 140 and the receiver 20 may be wired or wireless. The receiver 20 receives the individual identification data ID1, for example, a signal for turning on the first port of the receiver 20. The control device executes control of the PLC based on the individual identification data ID1. In addition, if the transmission unit 140 and the receiver 20 communicate with each other wirelessly, there is no need to connect using a cable or the like, so a cable connected to the switch is not necessary, and the cost can be reduced. Moreover, a cable wiring space is not required, and a space saving effect can be obtained.
 また、表示部150は、制御部130から受信した個体識別データID1を表示する。 In addition, the display unit 150 displays the individual identification data ID1 received from the control unit 130.
 同様に、スイッチ10の操作部110を下向きにした状態(以下、第2状態)では、姿勢検知センサ部120は、第2状態の姿勢検知信号を制御部130に出力する。制御部130は、第2状態の姿勢検知信号を元に、個体識別データID2を生成する。 Similarly, in a state where the operation unit 110 of the switch 10 is faced downward (hereinafter referred to as a second state), the posture detection sensor unit 120 outputs a posture detection signal in the second state to the control unit 130. The control unit 130 generates the individual identification data ID2 based on the posture detection signal in the second state.
 操作部110は、入力操作が行われた信号(入力信号)を制御部130に出力する。この入力信号をトリガとして、制御部130は、送信部140および表示部150に個体識別データID2を出力する。 The operation unit 110 outputs a signal (input signal) on which an input operation has been performed to the control unit 130. Using this input signal as a trigger, the control unit 130 outputs the individual identification data ID2 to the transmission unit 140 and the display unit 150.
 送信部140は、制御部130から受信した個体識別データID2を図示しない受信機20に送信する。受信機20は、個体識別データID2、例えば、受信機20の第2ポートをONにする信号を受信する。制御機器は、この個体識別データID2に基づき、PLCの制御を実行する。制御機器は、個体識別データID1と個体識別データID2とで、異なる制御を実行する。 The transmission unit 140 transmits the individual identification data ID2 received from the control unit 130 to the receiver 20 (not shown). The receiver 20 receives the individual identification data ID2, for example, a signal for turning on the second port of the receiver 20. The control device executes control of the PLC based on the individual identification data ID2. The control device executes different control between the individual identification data ID1 and the individual identification data ID2.
 このような構成とすることによって、スイッチ10の姿勢を検知し、個体識別データID1および個体識別データID2を生成できる。 With such a configuration, the posture of the switch 10 can be detected, and the individual identification data ID1 and the individual identification data ID2 can be generated.
 すなわち、複数の制御信号を効果的に生成でき、1つのスイッチを用いて複数の制御が可能となる。複数の個体識別データに対する不要なスイッチを設けないため、コストダウンが実現できる。 That is, a plurality of control signals can be generated effectively, and a plurality of controls can be performed using one switch. Since unnecessary switches for a plurality of individual identification data are not provided, cost reduction can be realized.

 受信機20は、図示しない通信部を備え、送信部140から送信された信号を受信する。このことによって、制御機器は、PLC等の制御対象機器の制御を実行する。 The receiver 20 includes a communication unit (not shown) and receives a signal transmitted from the transmission unit 140. As a result, the control device executes control of a control target device such as a PLC.
 操作部110は、入力操作を行い、制御を実行するトリガである入力信号を生成する。表示部150は、例えばLEDを含む構成であり、色を用いることによって、状態を識別できる。 The operation unit 110 performs an input operation and generates an input signal that is a trigger for executing control. The display unit 150 includes, for example, an LED, and the state can be identified by using a color.
 図2(A)は、スイッチ10の第1状態を示した図である。スイッチ10は、第1状態であり、個体識別データID1を出力可能である。 FIG. 2A is a diagram showing a first state of the switch 10. The switch 10 is in the first state and can output individual identification data ID1.

Based on the input signal, the transmission unit 140 transmits the individual identification data ID1 to the receiver 20. The receiver 20 receives the individual identification data ID1, and the control device executes control.
 この時、表示部150は、例えば、緑色に発光する。 At this time, the display unit 150 emits green light, for example.
 図2(B)は、スイッチ10の第2状態を示した図である。スイッチ10は、第2状態であり、個体識別データID2を出力可能である。 FIG. 2B shows the second state of the switch 10. The switch 10 is in the second state and can output the individual identification data ID2.
 図1、図2(B)に示すように、操作部110が押下されることによって、入力信号が生成される。当該入力信号に基づき、送信部140は、個体識別データID2を受信機20に送信する。受信機20は、当該個体識別データID2を受信し、制御機器は、制御を実行する。 As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2B, an input signal is generated when the operation unit 110 is pressed. Based on the input signal, the transmission unit 140 transmits the individual identification data ID2 to the receiver 20. The receiver 20 receives the individual identification data ID2, and the control device executes control.
 この時、表示部150は、例えば、赤色に発光する。 At this time, the display unit 150 emits red light, for example.
 このことによって、複数の制御信号を効果的に生成でき、1つのスイッチを用いて複数の制御が可能となる。さらに、複数の個体識別データに対するスイッチの個数を少なくできるため、コストダウンが実現できる。 This makes it possible to effectively generate a plurality of control signals and to perform a plurality of controls using a single switch. Furthermore, since the number of switches for a plurality of individual identification data can be reduced, cost reduction can be realized.
 また、個体識別データID1、または、個体識別データID2に基づく状態を表示することができ、ユーザは、送信した個体識別データを視認できる。 Further, the state based on the individual identification data ID1 or the individual identification data ID2 can be displayed, and the user can visually recognize the transmitted individual identification data.
 図3のフローチャートを用いて、本発明の第1の実施形態に係るスイッチ10の制御を示す。 FIG. 3 shows the control of the switch 10 according to the first embodiment of the present invention, using the flowchart of FIG.
 姿勢検知センサ部120は、姿勢検知信号を生成し、制御部130に出力する(S101)。 The posture detection sensor unit 120 generates a posture detection signal and outputs it to the control unit 130 (S101).
 制御部130は、姿勢検知信号から個体識別データを生成する。操作部110の入力操作をトリガとし、制御部130は、個体識別データを送信部140に出力する(S102)。 The control unit 130 generates individual identification data from the posture detection signal. Using the input operation of the operation unit 110 as a trigger, the control unit 130 outputs the individual identification data to the transmission unit 140 (S102).
 送信部140は、個体識別データを受信機20に送信する(S103)。 The transmission unit 140 transmits the individual identification data to the receiver 20 (S103).
 このことによって、複数の制御信号を効果的に生成できる。また、複数の制御信号のそれぞれに応じた複数の制御を実行できる。 This makes it possible to generate a plurality of control signals effectively. In addition, a plurality of controls corresponding to each of the plurality of control signals can be executed.
 また、表示部150は、操作部110の入力操作前、入力操作中、入力操作後に、発光色を変化させることによって、状態を表示してもよい。 Further, the display unit 150 may display the state by changing the emission color before, during or after the input operation of the operation unit 110.

・ Configuration example 2
Next, an outline of the switch 10A according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 (A) and 4 (B).
 第2の実施形態においては、第1の実施形態と比較して、表示部150Aの形状が異なる。その他の点については、第1の実施形態と同様であり、同様の箇所の説明は省略する。 In the second embodiment, the shape of the display unit 150A is different from that in the first embodiment. About another point, it is the same as that of 1st Embodiment, and description of the same location is abbreviate | omitted.
 表示部150Aは、シャッター構造を有する。図4(A)に示すように、スイッチ10Aが、第1状態である場合には、表示部150Aの状態で、「ID1」と表示される。逆に、図4(B)に示すように、スイッチ10Aが、第2状態である場合には、表示部150Aのシャッターが下がることによって、閉じた状態となり、「ID2」と表示される。 The display unit 150A has a shutter structure. As shown in FIG. 4A, when the switch 10A is in the first state, “ID1” is displayed in the state of the display unit 150A. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 4B, when the switch 10A is in the second state, the shutter of the display unit 150A is lowered to be closed, and “ID2” is displayed.
 この構成を用いることでも、複数の制御信号を効果的に生成でき、1つのスイッチを用いて複数の制御が可能となる。また、制御信号の状態を表示することができ、視認性が向上する。また、表示に電力を用いないため、スイッチを省電力化できる。さらに、複数の個体識別データに対するスイッチの個数を少なくできるため、コストダウンが実現できる。 Even with this configuration, a plurality of control signals can be generated effectively, and a plurality of controls can be performed using a single switch. Further, the state of the control signal can be displayed, and visibility is improved. In addition, since power is not used for display, the switch can save power. Furthermore, since the number of switches for a plurality of individual identification data can be reduced, cost reduction can be realized.

Next, an outline of the switch 10B according to the third embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 (A) and 5 (B).
 第3の実施形態においては、第1の実施形態と比較して、表示部150Bの形状が異なる。その他の点については、第1の実施形態と同様であり、同様の箇所の説明は省略する。 In the third embodiment, the shape of the display unit 150B is different from that in the first embodiment. About another point, it is the same as that of 1st Embodiment, and description of the same location is abbreviate | omitted.
 表示部150Bは、電子ペーパーで構成されている。電子ペーパーは、図示しない蓄電部から電力を供給されることによって、表示可能である。 The display unit 150B is composed of electronic paper. The electronic paper can be displayed when power is supplied from a power storage unit (not shown).
 図5(A)に示すように、スイッチ10Bが、第1状態である場合には、表示部150Bに、「ID1」と表示される。逆に、図5(B)に示すように、スイッチ10Bが、第2状態である場合には、表示部150Bに、「ID2」と表示される。この際、第1状態と第2状態とで、表示の向きを逆にするとよい。これにより、視認性がさらに向上する。 As shown in FIG. 5A, when the switch 10B is in the first state, “ID1” is displayed on the display unit 150B. Conversely, as shown in FIG. 5B, when the switch 10B is in the second state, “ID2” is displayed on the display unit 150B. At this time, the display direction may be reversed between the first state and the second state. Thereby, visibility improves further.
 この構成を用いることでも、複数の制御信号を効果的に生成でき、1つのスイッチを用いて複数の制御が可能となる。また、制御信号の状態を表示することができ、視認性が向上する。さらに、複数の個体識別データに対するスイッチの個数を少なくできるため、コストダウンが実現できる。 Even with this configuration, a plurality of control signals can be generated effectively, and a plurality of controls can be performed using a single switch. Further, the state of the control signal can be displayed, and visibility is improved. Furthermore, since the number of switches for a plurality of individual identification data can be reduced, cost reduction can be realized.
 なお、表示部150Bは、液晶表示であってもよい。 The display unit 150B may be a liquid crystal display.

 次に、図6を用いて、第4の実施形態に係るスイッチ10Cの概要について説明する。
Configuration example 4
Next, the outline of the switch 10C according to the fourth embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.
 第3の実施形態においては、第1の実施形態と比較して、加速度発生部160と、発電部170を備えている点において異なる。その他の点については、第1の実施形態と同様であり、同様の箇所の説明は省略する。 3rd Embodiment differs in the point provided with the acceleration generation part 160 and the electric power generation part 170 compared with 1st Embodiment. About another point, it is the same as that of 1st Embodiment, and description of the same location is abbreviate | omitted.
 操作部110は、入力操作を行うことにより、加速度発生部160は、該入力操作に対して加速度を発生させる。加速度発生部160は、操作部110の操作に対して、弾性力等を利用して発電軸の移動速度を速めるための加速度を発生する構成である。加速度発生部160は、発電部170に加速度を与える。同様に、操作部110は、入力操作の信号を、制御部130に出力する。 The operation unit 110 performs an input operation, and the acceleration generation unit 160 generates an acceleration in response to the input operation. The acceleration generation unit 160 is configured to generate an acceleration for increasing the moving speed of the power generation shaft using an elastic force or the like in response to the operation of the operation unit 110. The acceleration generation unit 160 gives acceleration to the power generation unit 170. Similarly, the operation unit 110 outputs an input operation signal to the control unit 130.
 発電部170は、特に図示していないが、操作部110が操作されることにより操作された方向に移動する発電軸、およびこの発電軸が部分的に挿入される貫通孔が形成された電磁誘導部材を備える。発電軸は、操作部110が操作されると、電磁誘導部材の貫通孔に挿入されている方向に移動する。発電部170は、発電軸がこの貫通孔内を移動すること、すなわち、発電軸の貫通孔への挿入量の変化によって、起電力を発生する。より具体的には、発電部170は、電磁誘導を利用したものであり、発電軸の移動速度に応じて発電量が変化し、発電量は、移動速度が速いほど大きくなる。 Although not specifically illustrated, the power generation unit 170 is an electromagnetic induction in which a power generation shaft that moves in a direction operated by operating the operation unit 110 and a through hole into which the power generation shaft is partially inserted are formed. A member is provided. When the operation unit 110 is operated, the power generation shaft moves in the direction in which it is inserted into the through hole of the electromagnetic induction member. The power generation unit 170 generates an electromotive force when the power generation shaft moves in the through hole, that is, when the amount of insertion of the power generation shaft into the through hole changes. More specifically, the power generation unit 170 uses electromagnetic induction, and the power generation amount changes according to the moving speed of the power generation shaft, and the power generation amount increases as the moving speed increases.
 さらに、発電部170は、発電したエネルギーを、制御部130を介して、表示部150に供給する。もしくは、発電部170は、図示しない蓄電部に、発電したエネルギーを蓄える構造であってもよい。なお、制御部130の起動は、操作部110からの信号入力ではなく、発電部170からの電力供給をトリガとしてもよい。 Furthermore, the power generation unit 170 supplies the generated energy to the display unit 150 via the control unit 130. Alternatively, the power generation unit 170 may be configured to store the generated energy in a power storage unit (not shown). The activation of the control unit 130 may be triggered by power supply from the power generation unit 170 instead of a signal input from the operation unit 110.
 加速度発生部160および発電部170を備えていることによって、表示部150が例えば、LED、電子ペーパー、液晶表示等である場合の電力を他に必要とせず、表示可能である。 By providing the acceleration generation unit 160 and the power generation unit 170, display is possible without requiring any other power when the display unit 150 is, for example, an LED, electronic paper, or a liquid crystal display.
 また、この構成を用いることでも、複数の制御信号を効果的に生成でき、1つのスイッチを用いて複数の制御が可能となる。また、制御信号の状態を表示することができ、視認性が向上する。さらに、複数の個体識別データに対するスイッチの個数を少なくできるため、コストダウンが実現できる。 Also, by using this configuration, a plurality of control signals can be generated effectively, and a plurality of controls can be performed using one switch. Further, the state of the control signal can be displayed, and visibility is improved. Furthermore, since the number of switches for a plurality of individual identification data can be reduced, cost reduction can be realized.
 なお、上述の構成では、スイッチの上下方向の個体識別データを切り替える態様を示したが、他の方向を検知することで、複数の個体識別データを生成することも可能である。
In the above configuration, the individual identification data in the vertical direction of the switch is switched. However, it is possible to generate a plurality of individual identification data by detecting other directions.
