Definitions
- the invention is based on a multi-segment display after Preamble of claim 1.
- the inventive multi-segment display with the Characteristic features of claim 1 has the opposite Advantage that greater freedom in the presentation of Characters with the lowest possible number of required ones Segments enabled. Through the eliminated spaces The characters can be displayed at regular intervals and the information will be longer if present Strings clearly readable.
- the characters are advantageously alphanumeric characters, hence not just single digits, but also letters and Information of all kinds can be presented.
- the Display of a composition of several elements consists, preferably of three elements.
- the ad can thus, as far as it makes sense, supplemented with elements as desired be used to represent longer strings clearly and flexibly to be able to.
- the characters can be centered on the Display. The arrangement of the segments allows it Characters of different font width always in the display to be shown on the display.
- the segments are single by a control unit, preferably a computer, controllable.
- the centering of the strings and the Adjustment of the font width can be done automatically.
- Fig. 1 two are, for example, the same adjacent ones Indicators 2 and 3 according to the prior art, e.g. according to US-4778035 or DE-U-9404336, each of sixteen Segments 1 exist.
- the segments 1 include two Vertical segments 1.1 and 1.2 and two vertical segments 1.3 and 1.4, which can be seen on the right edge of the display elements 2 and located on the left edge of the display elements 3. Between two display elements, there is a gap 4.
- Fig. 2 is the first embodiment of the invention a multi-segment display 5 consisting of thirty segments 1 represented according to the invention.
- Fig.1 In comparison with the conventional elements according to Fig.1 here are the two at the right edge of the left 16-segment elements 2 existing vertical segments 1.1 and 1.2 with the two at the left edge of the right 16-segment elements 3 Vertical segments 1.3 and 1.4 together. There are two common segments 1.5 and 1.6.
- the display shows continuous segment field without the original one Segment displays 2 and 3 usual gap 4 on.
- the so resulting multi-segment display 5 has fewer segments 1 than in the prior art and allows a more flexible Presentation.
- the alphanumeric characters be presented at regular intervals.
- a multi-segment display 6 which consists of an assembly of three 16-segment elements 2 and 3 in the Sense of the invention. Instead of a 48-segment display, consisting of three mutually distanced 16-segment elements, thus creates a more compact 44-segment display 6, the more flexible representation of characters with less Segments allowed.
- the numeral "21" will be right in the middle of the Multi-segment display 6 shown.
- FIG. 4 wid another example shown in which the Combination of letters and numbers in regular Distances is shown. Again, the representation of the Twenty-second basement exactly centered.
- the multi-segment display can be supplemented with elements as required be to represent longer strings, where at least one segment between two adjacent elements is common. Of course you can also use parts of 7 or 16 elements be assembled in the manner described.
- horizontal segments can also be used any segment of the composite elements as common be valid. In the same way, several can 7 segment displays are assembled.
- Fig. 5 is a multi-functional display device 10 for the presentation of various information in one Elevators, 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 in addition to a segment 14 can be provided for a minus sign.
- the second Area 12 is an up-arrow 12.1 and an down-arrow 12.2 to indicate the direction of travel.
- the third area 13 consists of pre-printed messages, such as e.g. Alarm messages that are lit as soon as such Events occur.
- the display 10 are all possible Messages for an elevator system combined.
- the display 10 can be used both on the floors and in the Elevator car can be installed and is of a usual Controlled control device.
- the various tableaus and scoreboards are using Plug connections or individual wires 15 wired.
- the segments 1 of the multi-segment displays are individually wired and controllable. They are individually via lines 16 with a Control unit 17, e.g. connected to a calculator, like this in Figure 5 is partially indicated by three lines 16.
- the computer has electronic means, which with the help of Algorithms control the lighting of the segments so that the automatically display in the display be centered.
- the font width can be individual Signs are enlarged and scaled down to a good one To achieve readability and centering.
- the multi-segment display may preferably be in electroluminescence "Thickfilm” technology can be realized in the Screen printing process is produced.
- Various Display techniques such as LCD, TFT, LED, lamps, etc., can also be used.
