Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a monitoring device for a vertically moving door.
  • Vertically moving doors such as gates, roll shutters, slatted doors, sectional doors, etc.
  • These known doors generally comprise a closure element, which can be rigid, flexible, of hinged segments, etc., which can be rolled up and unrolled by a motorized shaft, and be guided by its lateral edges along vertical guides formed in or applied to the two lateral doorposts of the passageway with which the door is associated.
  • the movement of the closure element and hence the operation of the motor applied to the door winding shaft are under the control of a control unit, with which a pushbutton unit is generally associated for controlling the door opening and closure, together with a radio receiver unit for remote control by a radio transmitter unit.
  • safety edge which is applied to the lower edge of the closure element and consists of a tubular element of rubber or similar elastically yieldable material, internally housing devices of various types able to transform the elastic yielding of the tubular element, at the moment of impact with an obstacle, into activation of an electric contact which itself feeds a signal to the control unit.
  • the electric contact can be activated in various ways, and in particular can be mechanical, by acting on a metal wire extending inside the tubular element and stressed mechanically by its deformation, or be optical, by interrupting a light ray extending within the tubular element which this latter deforms, or pneumatic by transforming the pressure increase which occurs within the tubular element on deformation, into an electric contact.
  • EP2071119 describes a motorized door provided along its lower edge with a traditional safety edge provided with electric contacts which are activated when the door encounters an obstacle.
  • a device for measuring the distance between a lateral prolongation of the door lower edge and a fixed monitoring device associated with the motor are also installed within the door lateral guides.
  • the information provided by the measurement device on the distance between the door lower edge and the fixed reference serves only to determine whether the activation of the electric contacts of the safety edge is caused by contact with the floor (to cause only motor stoppage) or by contact with an obstacle (to cause stoppage and reversal of the motor rotation direction, to hence withdraw the door lower edge from the obstacle).
  • the manner of constructing and installing the device for measuring the distance between the door lower edge and the fixed reference is fairly complicated, and in particular makes it difficult if not impossible to install the device in already existing motorized doors, given the characteristics which the lateral guides must possess in order to be able to house it.
  • Italian utility model 273111 describes a motorized door provided with a safety device consisting of an accelerometer, which senses door velocity variations during its descent movement, and in particular the passage from rated velocity to zero velocity on impact against an obstacle.
  • This solution has proved advantageous because it has eliminated the safety edge, and because it has enabled the safety sensor to be installed in positions different from its lower edge; at the same time it has proved to have limits, and in particular an excessive sensitivity to vibrations and hence to the risk of false obstacle indications and intervention of the control unit, to cause the closure element to reverse its movement not because of impact against an obstacle, but because of vibrations thereof due to incorrect and irregular sliding along its guides.
  • An object of the invention is to eliminate this problem by providing a monitoring device for a vertically moving door which does not use an elastic safety edge, while at the same time is not subject to the false indications currently present in those monitoring devices using an accelerometer.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a safety device for a vertically moving door, which is easy to install, is of low cost and is of safe and reliable operation.
  • the monitoring device according to the invention is applied to a vertically moving door 2, which in the illustrated example is a roll shutter, but could equally be a flexible fabric sheet provided lowerly with a stiffening bar, or a slatted door, or a sectional door with rigid elements hinged along adjacent horizontal edges. In all cases, the door 2 is without a safety edge.
  • the door is driven in traditional manner by an electric motor 4 provided with mechanical or electronic limit switches and controlled by a fixed control unit 6 connected to it. It is provided with a radio receiver for receiving commands from a radio transmitter installed, as described hereinafter, in the device according to the invention applied to the door 2.
  • a transceiver is applied to the control unit 6 to communicate bidirectionally with the device according to the invention.
  • the electric motor 4 rotates a roller about which the door is wound during the opening of the corresponding passageway, and from which it is unwound during closure of the passageway.
  • opening is achieved by sliding this latter in the horizontal plane overlying the passageway, in proximity to a ceiling of the room associated with this passageway.
  • the device according to the invention comprises a laser sensor 10 for measuring the distance between the device 8 and a fixed point, in particularly on the floor, a microcontroller 12, in which the functions for correct operation of the device are implemented, functions which are further described hereinafter during the description of the device operation, a transceiver 14 for radio communication between the device 8 and the control unit 6, a pushbutton 16 for setting the device 8 in the programming state, an LED 18 for indicating this programming state, and a powering battery 20.
  • This battery can be single or multiple, and be of standard, alkaline or lithium type, or be rechargeable in traditional manner or by a photovoltaic panel.
  • the laser sensor 10, the microcontroller 12, the transceiver 14, the pushbutton 16, the LED 18 and the powering battery 20 are housed in a suitable container mounted in proximity to the free horizontal edge of the door 3.
  • the device operates in the following manner: when the control unit 6 rotates the motor 4 in the direction causing the door 2 to descend, it also activates the laser sensor 10, which by virtue of a particular optical system with which it is provided, measures the distance between it and the floor. This measurement is continually transmitted to the microcontroller 12, the internal memory of which contains the theoretical descent and sensor reference relationship under normal and regular door movement conditions (i.e. in the absence of accidental obstacles within its downward path).
  • the microcontroller 12 samples the signal generated by the laser sensor 10 expressive of its effective distance from the floor and, by means of a comparator, compares this at each sampling moment with the memorized theoretical distance value.
  • the comparator provided in the microcontroller is configured to compare, in sequence, a plurality of values representative of the position measured by the sensor 10 with the corresponding values representative of the theoretical position which the laser sensor 10 would possess in the case of regular descent.
  • the microcontroller 12 causes the transceiver 14 to feed to the control unit 6 a command for halting the motor 4 and reversing its rotation direction.
  • this maximum difference value can be 10% of the theoretical value at the moment of sampling.
  • the device 8 During installation the device 8 according to the invention must be programmed for adaptation to the descent velocity of the door 2, this velocity depending both on the characteristics of the motor 4 (for example in terms of motor power and r.p.m.) and on those of the door itself (for example in terms of weight).
  • This is accomplished by a traditional self-learning technique, which comprises firstly operating the pushbutton 16 to switch from the operation stage to the programming stage, indicated by lighting of the LED 18.
  • the door 2 is made to descend under conditions of verified absence of obstacles within the passageway closed by the door, such that the microcontroller 12 acquires the velocity data (i.e. a plurality of pairs of time-distance values) of descent of the door 2, data measured by the sensor 10 precisely under conditions of regular door descent.
  • the device according to the invention is ready to operate in the manner already described.
  • the door descent velocity could possibly change, with consequent modification of the relationship governing the variation of the distance of the descending sensor 10 from the floor.
  • the described monitoring device is particularly advantageous, as it eliminates the problems present in traditional devices.
  • the monitoring device according to the invention:
