EP0997605A1 - Method and device for controlling one or more apparatuses, especially a bi-directionnaly rotatable roller shutter drum - Google Patents

Abstract

The roller door is controlled using a remote control (3), which can be operated in two modes: an adjustment and setting mode and a normal operating mode where the open and close commands are emitted. The signals are received (2) by a receiver inside the roller cylinder (6), and processed to set the direction of movement and stop positions when in setting mode.

Description

The invention relates to a method for controlling the operation of one or more bi-directionally movable members as well than a control device for the implementation of such a method.

It also relates to an assembly consisting of a body bi-directionally movable, such as a roller shutter drum, and such control device.

Although more particularly developed for applications in the field of roller shutters, it may however be used in any other sector in which we have to employ a bi-directionally movable member.

Currently, in terms of roller shutters, we know methods of controlling the operation of their drum, according to which means are provided for reception and digital processing of messages, intended for their operation and transmitted remotely by at least one transmitter. We also know to have said receiving means at level of said drums but it is necessary to intervene at the level of these during start-up settings.

Such a process allows the user to no longer have to move to a given location to activate the roller shutter as was previously necessary for installations in which the drum was connected to a control box by a link wired.

However, according to remote control procedures current transmitters do not allow remote adjustment of drum operating parameters such as, for example, encoding transmitters that can control it, adjusting its end positions stroke and / or reversing its direction of rotation in the event of an anomaly. At on the contrary, such operations still require the intervention of the fitter at drum level during installation.

In particular, in the event of an error concerning the direction of rotation of the drum during the wiring on site of its drive motor, the person responsible for installing the roller shutter must work on this one to correct the connections.

The aim of the present invention is to propose a method and a device for controlling the operation of one or more organs, in particular roller shutter drum, bi-directionally movable which overcome the aforementioned drawbacks and provide a solution which tends to eliminate connection and adjustment operations requiring intervention at the level of said organ (s) thanks to a distance from their operation.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a method and device for controlling the operation of one or more components, in particular roller shutter drum, bi-directionally movable which make it possible to compensate for assembly errors made on site.

Another purpose of this invnetion is to provide a method and device for controlling the operation of one or more bodies, in particular roller shutter drum, bi-directionally movable, which make it possible to overcome the mounting of the direction of movement, in particular the right or left direction of rotation, of the said member or members.

Other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent from during the description which follows which is given for information only and which is not intended to limit it.

• un mode dit « de paramétrage » permettant de réaliser un réglage du fonctionnement du ou desdits organes,
• un mode dit « normal » dans lequel on peut émettre au moins des ordres de déplacement du ou desdits organes dans un sens donné.

The invention relates first of all to a method of controlling the operation of one or more members, in particular roller shutter drum, bi-directionally movable at the level of which provision is made for means of reception and digital processing of messages intended for operation of said mobile component (s) transmitted remotely by at least one transmitter, characterized in that the said transmitter (s) are operated alternately in:

• a so-called “parameter setting” mode allowing adjustment of the functioning of the said organ or organs,
• a so-called “normal” mode in which it is possible to issue at least movement orders for the said member or members in a given direction.

The invention also relates to a device for setting implementation of such a method of controlling the operation of one or more organs, in particular roller shutter drum, bi-directionally movable, comprising means for digital reception and processing of messages, intended for the operation of the said movable member (s), and means for transmitting and transmitting said messages remotely, consist of at least one transmitter, characterized in that said one or more transmitters include means of configuration, making it possible to carry out an adjustment of the operation of the said organ or organs, and of the means of command, making it possible to issue at least movement orders for the or of said organs in a given sense.

The invention further relates to an assembly consisting of a bi-directionally movable member, such as a roller shutter drum, and of such a device for controlling the operation of said movable member, said said means for receiving and digital processing of said device being provided at said movable member.

• la figure 2 est un schéma électrique détaillant une partie de la figure 1 précédente,
• la figure 3 est un schéma électrique détaillant une partie de la figure 2 précédente.

The invention will be better understood on reading the following description which forms an integral part thereof and among which:

• FIG. 1 schematically describes, in front view, the interior of a rolling shutter box equipped with an exemplary embodiment of the control device according to the invention,
• FIG. 2 is an electrical diagram detailing a part of the preceding FIG. 1,
• Figure 3 is an electrical diagram detailing part of the previous Figure 2.

The invention relates first of all to a method for controlling the operation of one or more bi-directionally movable members, such that, in particular, roller shutter drum.

However, although more particularly developed for such applications, it can be used in all other fields in which we are led to use bi-directionally movable members.

As shown in Figure 1, according to the method according to the invention for controlling the operation of one or more mobile parts bi-directionally 1, means 2 are provided at these reception and digital processing of messages of different types intended for the operation of said movable member or members 1 and transmitted to distance by at least one transmitter 3.

By "transmitted remotely" means without wire connection. he for example, transmission of electromagnetic, infrared waves or others.

It is thus possible to have means 2 for receiving and processing already connected to the drive means 4 used for actuation of the movable member (s) 1. On leaving the factory, the assembly is then ready to assemble, the only connection to be made is that of a cable supply 5 of said receiving and processing means 2 and / or said training means 4.

The one or more movable members 1 are arranged, for example, inside a box 6 in which they are mounted, ready for use, the cable 5 leaving said trunk 6 to allow its connection to an energy source electric.

Said reception and processing means 2 are then located in said trunk 6 inside said movable member or members 1, provided hollow.

According to the invention, there is provided a first mode of so-called configuration operation, allowing adjustment of the operation of said member (s) 1, by storing information, and a second so-called normal operating mode in which one can transmit orders to stop or move the said organ (s) in one direction given. We then operate at least said transmitter (s) 3 alternatively, in either mode.

We thus have a solution according to which the adjustment of the operation of the movable member (s) is carried out remotely, thanks to a or of said transmitters 3, and the only operations carried out on the one or more moving parts by the person responsible for their installation are therefore the installation of these and their possible connection to an energy source electric. No intervention at the level of said mobile component (s) 1 and / or said receiving and processing means 2 is however no longer necessary for adjustments.

More precisely, we choose, using selection means states 20 provided at the level of said transmitter (s) 3, a state known as active, determining the type of messages to be sent. Then we send, according to said active state, either an order in configuration mode, or a order to switch from normal mode to configuration mode, i.e. an order in normal mode.

By thus having means of selection of states, we gives the possibility of being able to regulate with the same transmitter several characteristics of different natures, depending on the active state previously chosen.

• un encodage de l'identification desdits émetteurs 3 par lesdits moyens de réception et de traitement,
• une détermination d'une ou de positions de fin de course du ou des organes mobiles 1,
• une inversion du sens de déplacement du ou des organes mobiles 1 quand leur sens de déplacement effectif ne correspond pas à celui attendu après émission d'un ordre de déplacement dans un sens donné.

In configuration mode, one can then perform, for example, one and / or the other of the following operations:

• an encoding of the identification of said transmitters 3 by said reception and processing means,
• a determination of one or more end positions of the movable member or members 1,
• an inversion of the direction of movement of the movable member (s) 1 when their effective direction of movement does not correspond to that expected after issuing a movement order in a given direction.

With regard to coding, the transmitter (s) 3 present, in particular, any identification code or codes and the reception and processing means 2 are initially provided blank for any identification code of a given transmitter 3 given.

We therefore do not use a "factory code" attached to a particular transmitter and pre-stored in the reception and treatment 2.

It should be noted that such a solution increases the security of facilities equipped against attempted break-ins. Indeed, before placing in place, no code, likely to be discovered, is registered at the level said receiving and processing means 2.

In configuration mode, it then transmits to said means reception and processing 2, for storage, at least one code, associated with the transmitter 3 at the origin of the emission and intended, to allow, for the following operations, the identification of said transmitter 3 by said means of reception and processing 2.

For a given transmitter 3, memorizing its code identification may possibly be provided necessary for the setting of other information.

If several transmitters 3 are used to control the operation of one or more mobile members 1, said transmitters 3 can be used with or without hierarchy.

According to a first particular mode of implementation, after storage in said reception and processing means 2 a first identification code corresponding to a first transmitter 3, we then provides for the need to act on said first transmitter to authorize the taken into account in said reception and processing means 2 of others identification codes associated with other transmitters.

In such a case, to memorize the identification codes of the additional transmitters, first select an active state corresponding to the encoding then we issue an order to switch the mode normal in the setting mode, this at the level of the first transmitter. We then issues messages with additional transmitters that one wish to memorize.

To close the programming, we go back to said first transmitter in the active state corresponding to normal mode then emits undit order in normal mode.

• on définit avec le ou lesdits codes d'identification mis en mémoire, une famille de code d'identification, dite famille mise en mémoire,
• on prévoit nécessaire pour la mise en mémoire d'un ou de nouveaux dits codes d'identification, une étape préalable d'effacement de ladite famille mise en mémoire,

de manière à obliger, si l'on souhaite modifier ladite famille mise en mémoire, à remettre en mémoire tout ou partie des codes d'identification.According to another embodiment:

• a family of identification codes, known as family stored, is defined with the said identification code or codes stored in memory,
• a prior step for erasing said stored family is provided for the storage of one or more said identification codes,

so as to oblige, if it is desired to modify said family stored in memory, to restore all or part of the identification codes to memory.

This can improve information security saved and avoid untimely misadjustments or appropriations fraudulent codes.

According to a first solution, the deletion of said family put into memory by intervention at the level of an organ of control 13 connected by wire with said receiving means and treatment 2.

According to another solution, the erasure of the family memorized by sending a message from a transmitter 3 any whose identification code is part of said family, said transmitter 3 having previously been placed in an active state corresponding to an erase message.

According to an advantageous embodiment, the same functionality on all transmitters.

Specifically, all transmitters can, for example, issue displacement orders for said movable member (s) 1 in a given meaning, allow the encoding of their code or the code of others transmitters at the level of reception and processing means, allow the adjustment of end positions and / or allow reversal of direction movement of the movable member (s) 1.

As mentioned above, the only difference will lie, possibly, when using several transmitters, in the choice of transmitters whose codes will be successively stored in the reception and processing means located at the level or corresponding moving parts. Indeed, it could have been decided that it is necessary to act on one of the transmitters already identified to memorize the code of other transmitters at the same means of reception and treatment 2.

On the other hand, once these codes have been memorized, one or other of the transmitters that can be identified by said reception and transmission means processing has the same functionality vis-à-vis these and somehow constitute "clones". Any, for example, may authorize the deletion of the family of identified issuers.

We can thus rationalize the number of components entering in the implementation of the process according to the invention since it is not necessary to provide transmitters of different design, while allowing, on the one hand, an adjustment one by one of the movable members in mode configuration and, on the other hand, grouped commands of several organs by a single transmitter, in normal mode.

We can possibly perform a selective erasure of the settings made, for example an erasure of the codes set memory without erasing end positions.

• définition d'une famille de codes d'identification,
• mise en mémoire de fin de course,
• inversion du sens de rotation de l'organe mobile,
• commande de l'organe mobile en mode normal,

lesdits émetteurs 3 émettent des messages présentant, par exemple, le même format constitué, notamment :

• d'une séquence d'identification, donnant le code d'identification de l'émetteur,
• d'une séquence donnant l'état actif dans lequel on se trouve (mise en mémoire d'un code d'identification, inversion du sens de rotation, effacement d'une famille, utilisation en mode normal, ....),
• d'une séquence d'ordre indiquant la nature de l'action à réaliser en fonction de l'état actif (pour l'état actif correspondant au mode normal : montée, descente ou arrêt du ou des organes mobiles - pour l'état actif correspondant à l'encodage : basculement du mode normal au mode de paramétrage, mise en mémoire d'un code - pour l'état actif correspondant aux réglages des fins de course : basculement du mode normal au mode de paramétrage, montée ou descente des organes mobiles jusqu'à la position souhaitée pour définir le fin de course - ....)

To perform the functions mentioned above, namely, in particular:

• storage of identification codes,
• definition of a family of identification codes,
• end of stroke memory,
• reversing the direction of rotation of the movable member,
• control of the movable member in normal mode,

said transmitters 3 transmit messages having, for example, the same format, in particular:

• an identification sequence, giving the identification code of the issuer,
• a sequence giving the active state in which we are (memorizing an identification code, reversing the direction of rotation, deleting a family, using in normal mode, etc.),
• an order sequence indicating the nature of the action to be carried out as a function of the active state (for the active state corresponding to the normal mode: ascent, descent or stop of the movable member (s) - for the active state corresponding to encoding: switching from normal mode to setting mode, storing a code - for the active state corresponding to limit switch settings: switching from normal mode to setting mode, raising or lowering of components movable to the desired position to define the limit switch - ....)

As illustrated in Figures 2 and 3, the invention relates also a device for implementing the control method, described above, the operation of one or more bi-directionally movable members 1.

This device comprises means 2 for receiving and digital processing of messages, of different types, intended for operation of said mobile component (s), and transmission means and remote transmission of said messages, consisting of at least one transmitter 3.

According to the invention, said transmitter (s) 3 comprise setting means 7, making it possible to adjust the operation of said member (s), and control means 8 making it possible to issue at least movement orders for said one or more organs 1 in a given sense.

Said device is provided capable of operating, alternately according to a so-called configuration mode, in which an adjustment of the operation of said body or organs by storing information, and in a so-called normal mode, in which stop or stop orders are issued displacement in a given direction of said organs.

Said setting means 7 include, in particular, state selection means 20, making it possible to choose a state, called state active, determining the type of message sent.

Said control means 8 make it possible to transmit, by example, depending on the active state, i.e. an order in configuration mode, either an order to switch from normal mode to configuration mode, or a order in normal mode.

Said state selection means 20 are constituted, in particular, from a plurality of binary means, the combination of the state selected on each of said binary means defining said active state.

Said binary state selection means are constituted, for example, of switches 22 with two stable positions, associated with each other to others to define said active state according to the positions of each.

Said control means 8 consist, in particular, of push buttons 21. In the active state corresponding to the normal mode, they are each associated, for example, with a movement order in one direction given of said movable member (s) 1 or to an order to stop them.

Said push buttons 21 can also be used in other active states than that corresponding to normal mode. Indeed, when the active state no longer corresponds to the latter, we can predict that the messages sent by using push buttons 21 are no longer simple movement or stop orders but orders that are integrated into a adjustment cycle for the operation of the movable member (s) 1, in particular mode switch orders and / or mode orders setting.

Said push buttons 21 can then be considered as components of the configuration means.

For example, when all the binary means of selection of states 20, namely switches 22, are in their position "Zero", we are in the active state corresponding to the normal mode and the control means 8, namely the buttons 21, serve to determine the displacement of the movable member (s) 1 in the direction associated with each.

When one or other of the switches 22 is on the other hand switched to position 1, we are in another active state, determined by the new combination of the states of said switches 22. Said buttons pushers 21 are then used, depending on each active state, for different types of action, possibly different from those associated with their function in the active state corresponding to normal mode.

• des moyens d'encodage de l'identification desdits émetteurs 3 par lesdits moyens de réception et de traitement 2,
• des moyens de réglage de position de fin de course du ou des organes mobiles 1,
• des moyens d'inversion du sens de déplacement du ou des organes mobiles 1, aptes à être utilisés quand leur sens de déplacement effectif ne correspond pas à celui attendu après émission d'un ordre de déplacement dans un sens donné.

Said setting means include, in particular, at least:

• means for encoding the identification of said transmitters 3 by said reception and processing means 2,
• means for adjusting the end-of-travel position of the movable member or members 1,
• means for reversing the direction of movement of the movable member (s) 1, able to be used when their effective direction of movement does not correspond to that expected after issuing a movement order in a given direction.

These encoding means, end position adjustment of travel and / or reversal of the direction of movement are operational, or not, depending on the active state selected.

Said push buttons 21 can then be used, for example example, to trigger the transmission of the mode switching message for encoding a transmitter and / or adjusting the end position. They can also be used to adjust the value of one of the characteristics to memorize, in particular the position of the limit switches in authorizing the movement of the movable member (s) 1 up to the desired location.

More specifically, by way of example, in the case of encoding by family, one switches one of the switches 22 of the transmitter to memorize from one position to another and we send a message with one of the pushbuttons 21 of said transmitter, similarly to the other transmitters that we want to be able to identify.

By stopping the storage by switching back and forth in its initial position, of one of the switches of the previous transmitters, this being followed by a transmission of a command message by said transmitter, we thereby defines the family of identification codes stored in memory.

To modify said family, it will then be necessary, according to the invention, use a transmitter in which a specific active state will be selected at this end by switching the position of one or other of the switches 22, followed by a transmission of a command message by said transmitter. This message will not cause the corresponding action, which will allow moreover to verify the erasure of said family.

Still by way of example, in the case of reversal of meaning movement, this is done, in particular, by selecting a state associated specific asset. The use of one of the push buttons 21 allows then get the desired effect.

It can be seen that, with such a solution, the use of the transmitter 3 thus suffices to reverse the direction of movement of the members mobile 1, in the event of a wiring anomaly during assembly on site, signifying to the reception and processing means 2 that the pressure on one push buttons 21 of a transmitter 3 corresponds, for the following, to a movement instruction opposite to that pre-stored.

Motors can be used interchangeably arranged on the right or on the left. Correlatively, in the case of shutters rolling, this eliminates the need for mounting the interior location or outside the trunk enclosing their apron.

As a remark, we can note that, in the example previously given, when the active state selected corresponds to encoding by family or reversing the direction of travel, the use of one of the push buttons 21 simultaneously causes a tilting of mode and a setting of the desired characteristic.

That said, said reception and processing means 2 include, in particular, an antenna 9, a receiver 10 and / or a microcontroller 11, connected to each other.

Said binary state selection means 20 are, for example concealed while the control means 8 are, for example, visible. By "concealed" means accessible to the editor but hidden from the current user.

The number of binary state selection means 20 is chosen in order to benefit from a transmitter 3 of simple use while having a sufficient number of different states to be able to establish the messages and perform the desired functions.

According to the illustrated embodiment, said binary means for selecting states 20 are four in number. When the buttons pushers 21, there are three.

Said transmitter 3 further comprises, for example, a microcontroller 23, able to process the information to be sent according to the states push buttons 21 and / or switches 22. Said micro-controller 23 is connected to a transmitting unit 24 and an antenna 25.

It is also powered, in particular, by a battery 26 and all of its components are possibly placed in a box 27 to the surface of which the various push buttons 21 appear as well an access hatch 28 to the switch 22.

The connections between the transmitter (s) 3 and the means of reception and processing 2 are, in particular, of the high-frequency radio type.

For encoding, at least one memory unit 14, especially dead, is provided at each said transmitter 3. A code of identification of said transmitter 3 is pre-registered in said unit of memory 14.

At the level of the reception and processing means 2, the or the transmitter codes 3 that can be identified are stored, in particular, at a memory unit 15 associated with the microcontroller 11.

When checking the position of the mobile part (s) 1 during their movement and / or in the event of their blockage after arrival in the end-of-travel position, one or more input channels 16 informing said microcontroller 10 in the position of said movable member (s) 1 may be planned.

Depending on the mode you are in, these are alternately associated with a counter 17 intended to memorize the end positions and / or a counter 18 intended to know in the position of the moving part (s) 1.

In order to allow the direction of movement of the or of said movable members 1, the microcontroller 11 may also present, in particular, one or more output channels 19 for the transmission of the corresponding order.

To be able to delete, as mentioned above, some of the parameterized operating settings, said microcontroller 11 may present an entry path 12 linked to ground via a reset switch 13. When said switch 13 is closed, the order deletion is thus given. It can be delayed in order to avoid accidental erasures.

Referring again to Figure 1, we see that the invention also relates to an assembly consisting of a bi-directionally movable member 1, such as a roller shutter drum, and a device for control as described above of the operation of said movable member 1, said digital reception and processing means 2 of said device being provided at said movable member 1.

The said member (s) 1 are movable, for example, rotation around their longitudinal axis, in one direction or another.

As mentioned above, said drum 1 is located, possibly inside a trunk 6. It is provided hollow and its means 4, consist, for example, of an electric motor 29 and a reducer 30.

Referring again to Figure 2, we see that the windings of said motor 29 are supplied between phase and neutral from the cable 5 thanks to two lines 31, 32 respectively allowing the rotation of the motor one way or the other.

Each said line 31, 32 is provided, in particular, with power switching 33, 34 selectively allowing their open / close and triggered by orders emanating from the microcontroller 11 of the reception and processing means 2, through its exit routes 19.

Means for controlling the position of the drum 1 are possibly planned. They consist for example of sensors 35, optical or magnetic, allowing a translation of said position under digital form. They are connected to the reception and processing means 2 by its input channels 16. These are supplied, in particular, by a unit stabilized supply 36, bypass mounted on said cable 5.

Said reception and processing means 2, said unit stabilized power supply and / or said power switching units 33, 34 are arranged, for example, inside a housing 37, illustrated in broken lines in Figure 2. In Figure 1, the electrical connections are also shown in dotted lines.

Naturally, other modes of implementation, within reach skilled in the art, could have been envisaged without departing from the part of the invention.
