Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and a device for controlling an electrically operated door system by means of a control unit which configures itself, wherein the door system is moved by means of an electric drive device.
  • Door systems that are moved by means of electric drive devices and in particular automatically, for example, automatic sliding doors or elevator doors, are subject to international standards such as e.g. CSA B44-M94, CEN EN81: 1: 1985, ASME A17.1-1996 and ASME A17.1-2000, respectively, which specify, among other things, the maximum permissible kinetic energy for such door systems.
  • EP 0 848 309 A1 describes a device for monitoring and limiting the static closing force of a door, which is moved by means of a drive motor.
  • a control device as described in EP 0 848 309 A1 not only causes high maintenance and associated costs, but also the installation and adaptation of the control device to a door system, e.g. to an elevator system, has proven to be extremely time consuming and costly.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to provide a method and an apparatus of the aforementioned type such that the disadvantages described above are avoided and current devices or methods, in particular with regard to the time required for installation or maintenance of the door system and the associated time Costs are optimized.
  • the motor voltage of the drive device is predetermined by means of pulse-width modulation.
  • the system acceleration can be determined very precisely.
  • the friction in the system, one or more counterweights and the electrical voltage of the drive device are used as input parameters for the automatic mass determination.
  • the friction should be as negligible as possible.
  • the time, instantaneous speed and starting speed of an acceleration ramp predetermined with advantage by the pulse-width modulation are used as further input variables. In this way it is possible to be effective, lethargic Mass of the system at each instant of the acceleration ramp.
  • a closing and opening travel is performed for mass determination.
  • two mass determinations counterweights can be compensated in the calculation.
  • a stationary position is not only the (almost) completely open or the (almost) completely closed door position of the elevator system. Any other positions of the elevator system are also to be regarded as a stationary position, provided that the door system is largely not moved in the appropriate position.
  • the controlled travel of the door system has at least two phases, wherein during a first phase at constant speed, the friction of the system is determined and then the system mass is determined during a second phase at constant acceleration by means of an instantaneous speed of the system.
  • a target tolerance of 20% or less can be maintained.
  • the use of a device according to the invention is especially advantageous if the door system to be controlled has at least two door components which are connected to the drive device by means of a mechanical device for transmitting power, for example a toothed belt.
  • Figure 1 shows an elevator control according to the invention, wherein the door control unit 1 is connected to the drive device 2.
  • the drive device 2 preferably an electric motor, is connected to the door system 3.
  • This connection is for example designed such that two, as shown in Figure 2 door components 5, the components of the door system 3, are connected by means of a toothed belt with the motor pinion of the drive device 2.
  • a handheld terminal 4 is connected to the door control unit 1.
  • the components 1, 2 and 4 can send measurement or control signals to one another.
  • presettings can be made, for example by entering parameters, or values can be read out of the door control unit 1.
  • Possible motor data of the drive device 2 are advantageously stored in a memory unit of the door control unit 1.
  • FIG. 2 shows an elevator device in which a door control according to the invention is used.
  • the door control unit 1 shown only schematically is in turn connected to the drive device 2 and the handheld terminal 4.
  • Both the drive device and the door control unit 1 is connected to the door system 3, that here is composed of a two-part cabin door 5 and the counterweights 7.
  • the drive device 2 is also firmly connected to the elevator car 8 with advantage.
  • the door control unit 1 is also advantageously connected to the elevator car 8.
  • detectors or photocells for opening the doors are provided.
  • the maximum allowable kinetic energy of the door system should preferably be between 9.49 joules and 10 joules when the door contains a detector or photocell to open the door. If no opening devices are active, the maximum permissible kinetic energy should be between 3.39 joules and 4 joules.
  • the maximum permissible speed of the door system depends on the system mass and the kinetic energy.
  • the mass determination is influenced by the friction in the system 3, the counterweights 7, which are used, for example, to close the elevator door 5, and the motor voltage on the drive device 2.
  • the drive device 2 is given a voltage ramp by the door control unit 1.
  • U M : U EMK + i M ⁇ R M
  • K 1 is a conversion factor
  • v 0 corresponds to the starting speed of the door system 3
  • v PWM corresponds to the speed component due to the pulse width modulation.
  • F R corresponds to the frictional force of the system and F T of the inertial force for an accelerated mass, in this case the mass of the door system 1.
  • the effective inertial mass of the system is determined during the acceleration ramp.
  • the input times are the time t, the instantaneous velocity v and the starting velocity v 0 of the acceleration ramp.
  • the door control unit 1 in a preferred embodiment of the invention has a time-critical operating system, e.g. an 8-bit microcontroller, a virtually friction-free door system 1 with the lowest possible door mass is initially selected to determine calibration values of the speed.
  • a time-critical operating system e.g. an 8-bit microcontroller
  • calibration values can first be determined independently of the system friction and the counterweight 7 as a function of the pulse-width modulation. For example, it is possible to store determined speed values for different masses in a table in order not to unnecessarily increase the processor utilization of the door control unit 1. Such a table contains values for the pulse-width modulation at the start of the mass determination and for the door speed at the end of the measurement runs of the door system 3.
  • the door system 3 is preferably accelerated from the closed rest position and via a short distance, for example, 10 cm driven regulated in the opening direction. This is preferably done at a speed of 9 cm / sec to avoid overshoot and the occurrence of static friction components as much as possible.
  • the pulse-width modulation value is increased at a distance of in each case 10 msec by preferably 3 increments in each case until the final value is reached. This achieves a nearly constant acceleration.
  • a four-quadrant controller is used here and up to a total of 128 increments are passed through.
  • the pulse-width modulation value is reduced again to a constant speed, for example 9 cm / sec, and the door is finally moved to an open rest position.
  • the process can then be repeated analogously in the closing direction.
  • the system mass can be determined with the aid of the relationship (9), in particular at this point in time.
  • the friction is preferably calculated in a first movement section, that is, for example, during the first 10 cm door movement at 9 cm / sec on the basis of the current pulse width modulation value.
  • the pulse-width modulation value increases with increasing friction.
  • the counterweights 7 are compensated by two mass determinations, that is to say by successive opening or closing movements.
  • the inventive method the mass can be determined with sufficient tolerance and norm facultye limits for the operation of the door system 3 are reliably maintained.
