Definitions
- the invention is based on a multi-segment display according to the Preamble of claim 1.
- the characters are advantageous alphanumeric characters, so not just single digits, but also letters and All kinds of information can be displayed.
- the Display from a composition of several elements consists, preferably of three elements.
- the display can thus, as far as it makes sense, supplemented with any elements to present longer strings clearly and flexibly to be able to.
- the characters can also be centered on the Display the ad. The arrangement of the segments allows it Characters of different font widths always on the display to represent the center.
- the segments are individual by a control unit, preferably a computer, controllable.
- the centering of the strings and the The font width can be adjusted automatically.
- Fig. 1 are two, for example, the same neighboring Displays 2 and 3 according to the prior art, e.g. according to US-4778035 or DE-U-9404336, each of sixteen Segments 1 exist.
- Segments 1 include two Vertical segments 1.1 and 1.2 and two vertical segments 1.3 and 1.4, which are respectively on the right edge of the display elements 2 and are located on the left edge of the display elements 3. Between there is a space 4 between the two display elements.
- FIG. 2 is the first embodiment of the invention a multi-segment display 5 consisting of thirty segments 1 shown according to the invention.
- a multi-segment display 6 is shown in FIG a combination of three 16-segment elements 2 and 3 in According to the invention. Instead of a 48 segment display, consisting of three 16-segment elements spaced from each other, the result is a more compact 44-segment display 6, which is a more flexible representation of characters with less Segments allowed. The number "21" is exactly in the middle of the Multi-segment display 6 shown.
- the multi-segment display can be supplemented with elements as required to be able to display longer strings, where at least one segment between two adjacent elements is common.
- elements as required to be able to display longer strings, where at least one segment between two adjacent elements is common.
- parts of 7 or 16 elements can also be used be assembled in the manner described.
- any segment of the composite elements as common be valid.
- several can 7-segment displays can be composed.
- the display device 10 is a multi-functional display device 10 for the presentation of various information in one Elevator system, such as floor, direction of travel, status and Alarm messages, etc. shown.
- the display device 10 has three areas 11, 12 and 13.
- the first area 11 contains a 44 multi-segment display 6, which also has a segment 14 can be provided for a minus sign.
- the second Area 12 is with an up-arrow 12.1 and a down-arrow 12.2 to indicate the direction of travel.
- the third area 13 consists of pre-printed messages such as e.g. Alerts that are lit as soon as such Events occur.
- the display 10 can be used both on the floors and in the Elevator car to be installed and is of a usual Control device controlled.
- the various panels and indicators are displayed using Plug connections or individual wires 15 wired.
- the segments 1 of the multi-segment displays are individually wired and controllable. They are individually connected via lines 16 to one Control unit 17, e.g. connected to a computer like this is partially indicated in FIG. 5 using three lines 16.
- the calculator has electronic means, which can be done with the help of Algorithms controls the lighting of the segments so that the strings to be displayed automatically in the display be centered.
- the font width can be individual Characters enlarged and reduced to a good one To achieve legibility and centering.
- the multi-segment display can preferably be in electroluminescence "Thick film” technology can be realized, which in the Screen printing process is produced.
- Various Display technologies e.g. LCD, TFT, LED, lamps, etc., can can also be used.
