Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for activating an emergency light unit arranged in an elevator car with an elevator door of an elevator installation having at least one control unit.
  • an elevator installation might require passengers in an elevator car to wait in the dark for help. So that this can not happen, an emergency light unit is installed in the elevator car, which gives the passengers a minimum amount of light.
  • This emergency light unit has z. As batteries, capacitors, etc., and is thus, if necessary, independent of the power supply of the elevator system. It is activated by detecting a drop in voltage or current.
  • the emergency light unit usually has a corresponding switching or control unit which detects this voltage or current drop and activates the emergency light unit.
  • An object of the invention is to propose an alternative and improved possibility for activating an emergency light unit.
  • the invention is solved by the features of the independent claims. Continuations are given in the dependent claims.
  • an emergency light unit is activated by the control unit as a function of at least one of a light sensor unit, for example a photodetector, a radiation detector, a thermal detector etc., in a lift cabin of an elevator installation and transmitted to a control unit.
  • the emergency light unit is arranged in the elevator car.
  • the elevator car has a lighting unit, z.
  • lighting means a light bulb, an LED lamp, a fluorescent tube, etc., for illuminating the elevator car interior and at least on one side of the cabin on an elevator door, which in one or more parts, z. B. as a telescope door, can be executed.
  • the determination of the at least one light intensity value of the light sensor unit takes place when the elevator door is closed. However, it is also conceivable that the determination of the at least one light intensity value takes place when the elevator door is open.
  • the emergency lighting unit is activated by the control unit when at least one light intensity value of a second light intensity curve generated by the control unit is smaller than at least one light intensity value of a first light intensity curve generated by the control unit.
  • At least two first light intensity values are determined by the light sensor unit when the illumination unit is deactivated and transmitted to the control unit.
  • the controller adds a tolerance value to each first light intensity value and generates a first light intensity curve.
  • the first light intensity curve when the illumination unit is deactivated that is to say the residual light level in the elevator car, can be stored by the control unit in a memory unit connected to the control unit.
  • At least two light intensity values are determined by the light sensor unit when the illumination unit is activated and transmitted to the control unit.
  • the control unit generates a second light intensity curve from this.
  • the control unit can subtract a tolerance value from every second light intensity value.
  • the second light intensity curve, minus the tolerance value can represent the current light intensity within the elevator car.
  • the determination of the at least two first and second light intensity values can each take place within a time interval.
  • the time interval can be arbitrary.
  • the time interval of the measurement between the at least two first or second light intensity values can also be chosen as desired.
  • the time interval can be, for example, in the millisecond, second, minute range, etc.
  • the tolerance value is a freely selectable light intensity value, a percentage of a light intensity, a value determined by a mathematical method, etc.
  • the control unit activates the emergency light unit, for example when the elevator door is closed and the lighting unit is switched on, if at least one light intensity value of the second light intensity curve is smaller than at least one light intensity value of the first light intensity curve.
  • the control unit compares the first light intensity curve with the second light intensity curve or the light intensity values of the two light intensity curves.
  • the first, but also the second, light intensity curve can be stored in a memory unit by the control unit.
  • the first light intensity curve and the second light intensity curve could, for example, be determined in a learning process and stored in the memory unit.
  • the storage unit may be a unit integrated into the control unit or a unit connected to the control unit via a communication network.
  • the light sensor unit can be integrated in an elevator operating unit, which is arranged in an elevator car. Also, the control unit and the emergency light unit can be integrated in the elevator control unit.
  • control unit can also be a separate unit or can also be configured as a partial function of the elevator control unit controlling the elevator installation.
  • any unit which can process the light intensity values may be used, e.g. As a processor, a computer, a commercial computer or server with commercially available components.
  • the emergency lighting unit can be shielded from errant light by means of laterally arranged light barriers.
  • the laterally arranged light barriers ideally represent a housing which is open towards the elevator car interior. With the housing open, it is meant that the side is permeable to light.
  • the open side of the housing could be covered with a transparent pane to protect the light sensor unit.
  • Faulty light refers to that light which can impair the measurement results when determining the first and second light intensity curves. This can be, for example, light which originates from the lighting unit of the elevator operating unit or light incident directly into the light sensor unit.
  • the removal of the false light could alternatively or cumulatively also be done by the control unit, for example by the fact that for the time of determination of the light intensity values all light sources at the elevator control unit or other units, for example a switch, a screen, a lighting unit etc. in the elevator car or be switched off in the entire elevator system.
  • An advantage of the invention is the fact that the emergency light is activated only when it is actually necessary.
  • the method according to the invention is carried out only when the elevator door is closed, and secondly only when at least one light intensity value from the second light intensity curve is smaller than one when the illumination unit is activated Light intensity value of the first light intensity curve. So it is z. B. not possible that the emergency light unit is activated in sleep mode (standby mode) of the elevator system.
  • Another advantage is the fact that the temporal or dynamic course of the light intensity can be determined in a simple manner. So z. B. be detected when lighting, light bulbs, LED lamps, fluorescent tubes, etc. fail, and replacement of these lighting is necessary.

  • the housing can of course also consist of a part which can be arbitrarily shaped. The important thing is that Faulty light, which could affect the determination of the light intensity values, can be effectively kept away from the light sensor unit LS.
