Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an elevator apparatus that performs control of a braking force that brakes a car using a brake controlling apparatus.
  • a car is braked by a braking force from a brake so as to decelerate and stop the car.
  • elevator braking apparatuses have been proposed that control the braking force of the brake such that the deceleration of the car is at a predetermined value.
  • the control of the braking force of the brake is performed by comparing a deceleration command value and output from a speed detector that detects the speed of a car driving electric motor that moves the car (See Patent Literature 1).
  • WO 2008/015749 A1 teaches a brake control device that performs a brake force reduction control for reducing brake force in emergency braking of an elevator car. Also, in the emergency braking of the car, the brake control device monitors traveling conditions of the car and switches over between validity and invalidity of brake force reduction control so that the car stops in a preset allowable stop distance.
  • the present invention aims to solve the above problems and an object of the present invention is to provide an elevator apparatus that can stop a car more reliably during an elevator abnormality, and that can also suppress making configuration of a brake controlling apparatus complicated.
  • an elevator apparatus characterized in including: a car that is movable inside a hoistway; a braking apparatus that includes a brake coil, that generates a braking force that brakes the car by stopping passage of electric current to the brake coil, and that stops generation of the braking force by passing electric current to the brake coil; and a brake controlling apparatus that includes: a first brake controlling means that performs control of the braking force by adjusting a quantity of the electric current that is passed to the brake coil; and a second brake controlling means that includes a plurality of computing means that separately determine presence or absence of an abnormality in the elevator based on information from a predetermined detecting means, and that perform control that stops passage of electric current to the brake coil if it is determined that there is an abnormality in the elevator.

  • Each of the car doors 10 is displaced between a closed door position that closes the car doorway 9 and an open door position that opens the car doorway 9 by a driving force from a door driving apparatus that is mounted to the car 2.
  • Landing doorways and pairs of landing doors that open and close the landing doorways are disposed on landings on respective floors (none of which are depicted).
  • Predetermined door opening and closing enabled zones that correspond to positions of the respective landings are set in a direction of movement of the car 2 inside the hoistway 1.
  • the car doors 10 can engage horizontally with the landing doors. Consequently, when the car 2 is within a door opening and closing enabled zone, the landing doors are engaged by the car doors while being displaced relative to a landing doorway by the car doors being displaced between the closed door position and the open door position.

  • the braking members 13 When passage of electric current to the brake coils is stopped, the braking members 13 contact the brake disk 12 due to the forces from the brake springs. Rotation of the brake disk 12 is braked by the braking members 13 contacting the brake disk 12. The braking force that brakes the car 2 is generated by the rotation of the brake disk 12 being braked. The braking members 13 are displaced away from the brake disk 12 in opposition to the forces from the brake springs by passing electric current to the brake coils. Generation of the braking force that brakes the car 2 is stopped by the braking members 13 separating from the brake disk 12.

  • the operation controlling apparatus 18 finds the speed of the car 2 based on the information from the first and second speed detectors 14 and 15, and stops output of the relay driving command to the brake controlling apparatus 19 if the car 2 stops (i.e., if the speed of the car 2 becomes zero).

    un appareil de freinage (11) qui comprend une bobine de frein (20), qui génère une force de freinage qui freine la cabine (2) en arrêtant le passage de courant électrique dans la bobine de frein (20), et qui arrête la génération de la force de freinage en faisant passer un courant électrique dans la bobine de frein (20) ; et
    un appareil de commande de frein (19) qui comprend :
    un premier moyen de commande de frein (23) qui effectue une commande de la force de freinage en ajustant une quantité du courant électrique qui est envoyée dans la bobine de frein (20) ; caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend en outre un deuxième moyen de commande de frein (26) qui inclut une pluralité de moyens de calcul (34, 35) qui déterminent séparément la présence ou l'absence d'une anomalie dans l'ascenseur sur la base d'informations provenant d'un moyen de détection prédéterminé (14-17), et qui effectuent une commande qui arrête le passage de courant électrique dans la bobine de frein (20) si l'on détermine qu'il y a une anomalie dans l'ascenseur.
  2. Appareil d'ascenseur selon la revendication 1, caractérisé en ce que :
    un détecteur de vitesse (14) qui détecte une vitesse de la cabine (2) est inclus dans le moyen de détection ;
    et
    chacun des moyens de calcul (34, 35) prépare une valeur de limitation de vitesse qui diminue au fil du temps si un ralentissement de la cabine (2) qui a été trouvé sur la base d'informations provenant du détecteur de vitesse (14) dépasse une valeur de seuil prédéterminée, et effectue une commande qui arrête le passage de courant électrique dans la bobine de frein (20) si la vitesse de la cabine (2) dépasse la valeur de limitation de vitesse.
  3. Appareil d'ascenseur selon la revendication 1, caractérisé en ce que :
    un détecteur de position de porte de cabine (16) qui détecte si une porte de cabine (10) se trouve ou non dans une position de porte fermée qui ferme une embrasure de porte de cabine (9), et un détecteur de position de cabine (17) qui détecte si la cabine (2) se trouve ou non dans une zone à ouverture et fermeture autorisée de porte dans laquelle la porte de cabine (10) et une porte palière qui ouvre et ferme une embrasure de porte palière peuvent s'engager sont inclus dans le moyen de détection ; et
    chacun des moyens de calcul (34, 35) effectue une commande qui arrête le passage de courant électrique dans la bobine de frein (20) si l'on détermine que la cabine (2) se trouve à l'extérieur de la zone à ouverture et fermeture autorisée de porte dans un état dans lequel une position de la porte de cabine (10) est déplacée depuis la position de porte fermée sur la base d'informations respectives provenant du détecteur de position de porte de cabine (16) et du détecteur de position de cabine (17).
