Description
2 ., BACKGROUND OF _ E INVENrION
This invention relates generally to a cage system in a mine or similar installation wherein the cage has a plurality of decks or levels, and more particularly to the indication of the status of a door on each of the decks of the cage.
When a multi-deck cage docks at a s~ation in a shaft the doors at one or more decks of the cage may be opened or closed independently of the other doors. The onsetter, that is the person who transmits signals to the driver of the winding system, must be aware of the status of each door, in other words know whether it is open or closed, before he is in a position to signal the driver that the cage can be moved away from the station.
Modern cages can have at least four decks and in practice the situation is encountered that different decks can dock at different levels at the station. For example a four deck cage can dock at a four level - - 1-5 - station with each deck corresponding directly with one of the levels at the station or possibly with the bottom deck otherwise being aligned with the top, second or third level on the station. Under these circumstances it is difficult for the onsetter at all times to be-aware of the status of each door on the cage the more so when one bears_in mind that persons on the cage or on one of the levels-can operate the - doors independently o~ advtsing the onsetter thereof and at any~time. -The problem of keeping the onsetter informed of the status of each ~ ~ door is compounded by the fact that the cage is not generally connected ,' ~k

, The invention is further described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
Figure 1 schematically illustrates apparatus according to the invention, and Figure 2 illustrates the manner in which the apparatus of Figure 1 is employed.
DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
Figure 1 illustrates apparatus according to the invention which includes a transmitter 10, a receiving unit 12 and a display unit 14.
The transmitter has four inputs collectively designated by the numeral 16 which are respectively responsive to switches 18, 20, 22 and 24 respectively. The inputs are connected to a scanner 26 which in turn is connected to a multi-channel infrared transmitter - 28. The transmitting unit is self-contained and is powered hy means of a battery 30 located in a housing of the transmitter unit.
The battery is normally a dry cell battery.
The receiving unit 12 is powered from a low voltage alternating supply line 32 and includes a power unlt 34 to provide the , ~ - 6 -requlrecl d.c. voltaye for its operation. The receiver unit includes an inFrared receiver 36 which is connected to a mul-ti-channel decoder 38. The decoder in turn is connected to a hold circuit 40.
Output lines 42 from the hold circuit 40 are connected to display logic circuitry 44 in the display unit 14. The logic circuitry is powered by means of a power unit 46 connected to the a.c. supply line 32. The logic circuitry has output lines connected to red and green light emitting diode pairs 48, 509 52 and 54, and a relay 56. The contacts of the relay are accessible at output terminals 58.
~ Figure 2 illustrates a multi-deck cage 60 docked at an underground station ~2. In this example the cage 60 has four decks 64, 66, 68 and 70 respectively and each deck has a separate and independently operabie door.
In accordance with the invention the switches 18 to 24 are installed on the cage so that they are operable by the action of the doors on the decks 64 to 70 respectively. The transmitter unit 10 is installed on the cage near the roof of the upper deck 64 with the transmitter 28, see F;gure 1, being directed downwardly. The transmitter 10 has an output aperture 72, and this is covered and sealed by means of a window which is transparent to the infrared frequency emitted by the transmitter. In addition, as shown in Figure 2, the window is - directed into a tube 74 so that it is effectively mechanically shielded - 7 - b in all clirections save from t:he underneath which is the general transmitting direction.
The receiving unit 12 and the display unit 14 are installed at the station 62 in the manner schematically illustrated. The receiving unit 12 with the receiver 36, see Figure 1, is installed at a lower level at the station 62 and is directed downardly.
The receiving unit also has an infrared transparent window 76 and, as shown in Figure 2, has a downwardly directed tube 78 shielding the window. The display unit 14 is installed at a suitable location on the station 62 where it is easily visible to the onsetter working at the station.
A stainless steel reflector B0 is positioned below the receiving unit 12.
Figure 2 also illustrates, somewhat schematically, different levels 82 to 88 respectively of a gantry at which the cage docks.
The transmitter unit 28 is designed to emit sufficient power to ensure that the receiving unit 12 receives a signal of adequate strength when the cage is at the position shown in Figure 2 and also when the lower most deck 70 is aligned with the level 82.
It should be mentioned at this stage that the deck 70 can in practice be aligned with any one of the levels 82 to 88. In the first case the transmitter is at its furthest distance from the b3 b - 8 -receiver. The transmitter is clos~stto -the receiver when the deck fi4 is aligned with the level 88.
The transmitter 74 is located on the cage near the side of the shaft where the receiver is installed. Thus it is at all times aligned more or less with the receiver in that its emitted infrared beam impinges on the reflector 80.
When the cage docks at the gantry with any of the decks of the cage being aligned with the different levels of the gantry the transmitter unit therefore transmits a beam of radiation at an infrared frequency which impinges on the reflector 80 and which is redirected into the receiver lZ. The scanning unit 26 continuously and successively ~interrogates the switches 18 to 24 on a cyclical basis and obtains information from the switches indicating whether or not the respective doors are open or closed. Depending on the status of the door the scanning unit 26 generates an appropriate signal. For example if a door is closed the scanning unit generates a coded signal which uniquely identifies the door and if the door is open it does not generate the code. This is a Fail-safe feature. The four signals ~r codes are multiplexed by the scanning unit and used to modulate thecarrier or output signal of the transm~tter 28. Thus the infrared transmitted signal which is directed to the reflector 80 conveys information which uniquely identifies the doors and indicates the status of each door.
The signal which impinges on the reflector 80 is directed upwardly into the receiver unit 12 where it is received by the receiver 36 and ~27~ ¢3 g ~ ~
demodulated whereupon -the demodula-ted siynal is decoded in the decoding device 38. Four signals which correspond to the input signals to the scanning unit are then applied to the hold circuit 40 which provides on its output lines 42 steady signals indicative of the status of the doors. Since each of the lines 42 corresponds to one of the switches 18 to 24 and hence to one of the doors on the decks 64 to 70 the doors are uniquely identified as well.
The signals on the lines 42 are applied to the logic circuitry 44 and depending on the status of a door the diode pairs 48 to 54 are appropriately energized. For example if the door on deck 64 is open the corresponding red diode in the pair 48 is energized whereas if the door is closed the green diode in the indicated pair is energized. A similar situation prevails in respect of the other diode pairs 50 to 54 with regard to the doors on the other decks.
When all of the doors are closed the logic circuitry 44 additionally provides a signal which energizes the relay 56 and this provides a closed contact via the terminals 58 which is connected to an interlock circuit. This contact for example ensures that the brakes cannot be released by the driver of the winder until such time as all the doors of the cage are_cl~sed. -If any--of--the- -doors are opened the relay 56 is de-energized and the interlock circuitry is disabled.
It should be pointecl out that the transmitter 10 and the receiver 12 , are 1nstalled directed downwardly to ensure that minimal dirt,collects on the windows 72 and 76 respect-ively..that they are well protected against objects falling down the shaft, and thus that the efficiency of S the system is maintained. The, reflector 80 is located close to the receiver and this carries with it the advantage that even when dust or other foreign matter settles on the rèFlector there is a scattering oF the received infrared signal by the foreign matter, apart from the residual direct reflection by the reflector 80, which causes the signal to be redirected into the receiver. Since the transmitter and receiver are directed downwardly with their windows on the undersides it is possible to make the units water and dustproof and to ensure that they are adequately able to withstand mechanical shocks.
Particular advantagesarise from the use of an in-Frared transmitting signal. It is found that the infrared transmitter consumes very little power and thus can be powered by means of an onboard battery 30 for a considerable period of time. Secondly the signal, at an infrared frequency is, as has been pointed out, not unduly adversely affected by the presence of dirt or foreign matter between the transmitter ar,d receiver, for example on the reflector surface. The signal is also not suscept~lble to electromagnetic interference. Another point is-that-~the---emitted~~~nf~are-d-bea~-is--not-highly di-rectiona-l---and thus -impinges on the reFlector irrespective of the position of the cage when it is docked at the station 62. With regard to this last 2~ mentioned point it should be mentioned that the correct physical siting of the transmitter and receiver greatly assists in ensuring that an adequate signal is received by the unit 12.
The number of channels used in the apparatus of the invention is determined by the number of doors to be monitored. Additional channels may however be used for transmitting other data e.g. the status of the battery 30 in the transmitting unit 10.
