Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Positionseinstellung einer Aufzugsanlage nach dem Oberbegriff des Hauptanspruchs. Ferner betrifft die vorliegende Erfindung ein Aufzugssystem unter Nutzung einer derartigen Positionseinstellvorrichtung.The present invention relates to a device for adjusting the position of an elevator system according to the preamble of the main claim. Furthermore, the present invention relates to an elevator system using such a position adjusting device.
Aus dem Stand der Technik sind gattungsgemäße Vorrichtungen zur Positionseinstellung einer Aufzugsanlage allgemein bekannt; diese Vorrichtungen werden insbesondere benutzt, um in einem Einrichte- und Wartungsbetrieb einer Aufzugsanlage die im Aufzugsschacht bewegbar angetriebene Aufzugskabine an vorgesehenen Kabinehaltepositionen im Schacht - diese entsprechen üblicherweise dann jeweiligen Stockwerken und damit vorgesehenen Kabinentüröffnungspositionen - zu führen, so dass dann entsprechende Kabinenhaltepositionen eingestellt und gespeichert werden können. Zu diesem Zweck sind der Aufzugskabine in ansonsten bekannter Weise Positionsmessmittel zugeordnet, welche entsprechend einer aktuellen Schachtposition der Aufzugskabine Positionsdaten erzeugen und typischerweise für eine rechnerische Weiterverarbeitung bereitstellen. Derartige Positionsmessmittel sind beispielsweise in Form einer Magnetfelddetektoren aufweisenden Schlitteneinheit (als Positionssensor) bekannt, welche an der Aufzugskabine festgelegt und relativ zu einer sich entlang des Aufzugsschacht erstreckenden magnetisierten Längencodierung durch Bewegung der Aufzugskabine verfahrbar ist. Entsprechend der magnetischen Codierung erfolgt dann durch Magnetfeldsensoren das Ablesen und Umsetzen in (aktuelle absolute oder relative) Positionsdaten.From the prior art, generic devices for adjusting the position of an elevator installation are generally known; These devices are used, in particular, to guide the elevator car movably driven elevator car at provided car stop positions in the shaft in a set-up and maintenance operation of an elevator installation - these then usually correspond to respective floors and thus provided car door opening positions, so that corresponding cabin holding positions are set and stored can. For this purpose, the elevator car is assigned, in an otherwise known manner, position-measuring means which generate position data corresponding to a current shaft position of the elevator car and typically provide for a computational further processing. Such position measuring means are known, for example, in the form of a magnetic field detector slide unit (as a position sensor) which is fixed to the elevator car and movable relative to a magnetized length coding extending along the elevator shaft by movement of the elevator car. Corresponding to the magnetic coding, magnetic field sensors then read and convert into (current absolute or relative) position data.
Diese Positionsdatenfunktionalität wird auch für einen Einrichte- bzw. Konfigurationsbetrieb der Aufzugsanlage benutzt. Für diesen Zweck fährt eine Bedienperson, üblicherweise durch manuelle Bewegungssteuerung, die Aufzugskabine entlang des Aufzugsschachts und jeweils dort vorbestimmte bzw. vorgesehene Kabinenhaltepositionen - also die den jeweiligen Stockwerken entsprechenden Positionen - an. Zugehörige Positionsdaten werden dann erfasst, gespeichert und der für den späteren Betrieb vorgesehenen automatisierten Aufzugssteuerung bereitgestellt, dergestalt, dass dann die die Aufzugsteuerung und Positionierung durchführenden Positionssteuermittel entsprechend diesen gespeicherten Positionsdaten gezielt die jeweils ausgewählten bzw. vorgesehenen Stockwerke anfahren können.This position data functionality is also used for a set up or configuration operation of the elevator installation. For this purpose, an operator, usually by manual motion control, drives the Elevator car along the elevator shaft and there each predetermined or intended cabin holding positions - ie the corresponding floors of the respective positions - to. Associated position data are then acquired, stored and provided for the later operation provided automated elevator control, such that then the elevator control and positioning performing position control means according to these stored position data can selectively approach the selected or intended floors.
Dieser Einrichte- bzw. Konfigurationsbetrieb ist allgemein bekannt und bewährt, gleichwohl mühsam in der praktischen Durchführung, so dass, insbesondere auch unter Beachtung einschlägiger Sicherheitsvorschriftten, beträchtliche Konfigurationszeit für das beschriebene Einrichten erforderlich ist. Nicht zuletzt ist das bekannte Handhaben der Konfigurationsmittel - üblicherweise mittels Kabel ansteckbarer Bedieneinheiten mit Zahlenanzeigen und mechanischen Bedienknöpfen - umständlich in der Handhabung, potenziell fehlerträchtig und verlangt nach sorgfältiger Einweisung und Schulung des Bedienpersonals. Hinzu kommt der Umstand, dass für den praktischen Konfigurations- und Einstellbetrieb für die Mehrzahl von Kabinenhaltepositionen entlang eines Aufzugsschachts nicht immer eindeutige Positionsdaten aus den Positionsmessmitteln erzeugbar sind. So sind etwa Hystereseeffekte für den Fall zu erwarten, dass eine Kabinenhalteposition aus zwei entgegengerichteten Kabinenbewegungsrichtungen angefahren wird, ebenso wie eine Kabinengeschwindigkeit oder Kabinenbeschleunigung bis zur Halteposition Positionsdaten beeinflusst, welche dann in der gattungsgemäßen Weise gespeichert werden sollen.This set-up or configuration operation is well known and proven, however cumbersome in the practical implementation, so that, in particular, taking into account relevant safety regulations, considerable configuration time for the described setup is required. Last but not least, the known handling of the configuration means - usually by means of cable attachable control units with numeric displays and mechanical control buttons - cumbersome to use, potentially error prone and requires careful training and training of operating personnel. Added to this is the fact that it is not always possible to generate unique position data from the position-measuring means for the practical configuration and setting operation for the plurality of cabin-holding positions along an elevator shaft. Thus, for example, hysteresis effects are to be expected in the event that a cabin stop position is approached from two opposite cabin movement directions, just as a cabin speed or cabin acceleration up to the stop position influences position data which are then to be stored in the generic manner.
Nicht zuletzt ist zudem die als gattungsbildend vorausgesetzte Technologie insoweit wenig bedienungsfreundlich und insbesondere gegenüber unpräzisen Positionsdaten wenig tolerant, als die Bedienperson keine bzw. nur eingeschränkte Möglichkeiten hat, manuell auf die Positionsdaten einzuwirken bzw. diese zu ändern.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es daher, eine gattungsgemäße Vorrichtung zur Positionseinstellung einer Aufzugsanlage im Hinblick auf ihre Bedienbarkeit zu vereinfachen, dabei insbesondere den Konfigurations- und Einrichtebetrieb für die Mehrzahl von Kabinenhaltepositionen einfacher, schneller, mit weniger Schulungs- und Überwachungsaufwand sowie fehlertoleranter zu gestalten, dabei insbesondere auch den Umfang mit potenziell ungenauen bzw. fehlerhaften Positionsdaten zu erleichtern.The object of the present invention is therefore to simplify a generic device for setting the position of an elevator installation with regard to its operability, thereby in particular the configuration and set-up operation for the plurality of cabin holding positions easier, faster, with less training and monitoring effort and fault-tolerant, In particular, to facilitate the scope with potentially inaccurate or incorrect position data.
Die Aufgabe wird durch die Vorrichtung zur Positionseinstellung einer Aufzugsanlage mit den Merkmalen des Hauptanspruchs gelöst; vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen beschrieben. Zusätzlich Schutz im Rahmen der Erfindung wird beansprucht für ein Aufzugssystem nach dem unabhängigen Anspruch 10, welcher für eine in einem Aufzugsschacht bewegbar vorgesehene Aufzugskabine die Vorrichtung zur Positionseinstellung nach dem Hauptanspruch vorsieht. Insoweit ist die Erfindung nicht auf ein Gesamtsystem beschränkt, insbesondere ist als erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung zur Positionseinstellung auch eine Vorrichtung zu verstehen, welche weder den Aufzugsschacht, noch die darin bewegte Aufzugskabine als Erfindungsmerkmale aufweist oder beansprucht.The object is achieved by the device for adjusting the position of an elevator installation with the features of the main claim; advantageous developments of the invention are described in the subclaims. Additional protection within the scope of the invention is claimed for an elevator system according to
In erfindungsgemäß vorteilhafter Weise ist zunächst den Konfigurationsmitteln eine drahtlos angebundene mobile Datenverarbeitungseinheit zugeordnet, welche nicht nur die Handhabung und Flexibilität in der Konfiguration drastisch vereinfacht, welche zudem im Rahmen der Erfindung mittels des Displays das Darstellen der Mehrzahl der Kabinenhaltepositionen gemeinsam zur Betrachtung durch Bedienperson gestattet. Dabei kann diese Darstellung bevorzugt tabellarisch und/oder graphisch oder auf andere geeignete Weise zum Illustrieren des Zusammenhangs der Einzelpositionen geschehen, etwa auch dadurch, dass diese entlang einer symbolischen Vertikalrichtung - insoweit entsprechend dem Aufzugsschacht - angeordnet sein können, mit dem Zweck, der Bedienperson einen einfachen Überblick über bereits eingerichtete oder noch einzurichtende Kabinenhaltepositionen zu geben, gleichzeitig zu ermöglichen, dass etwa durch einfache Kalkulationen - welche auch durch zusätzliche Kalkulationsfunktionalitäten der Positionsdaten am Display durch die Datenverarbeitungseinheit bereitgestellt werden können - auf Gleichmäßigkeit dieser Abstände überprüft werden kann. Damit ergibt sich, dass vorteilhaft das Display bzw. der erfindungsgemäße Displayeinheit eine zur hochauflösenden Bilddarstellung geeignete Displayeinheit sein sollte, dergestalt, dass etwa dann die bevorzugt darzustellende Tabelle sämtlicher Kabinenhaltepositionen mit zugeordneten Positionsdaten, tabellarisch etwa gegenübergestellt dann den jeweils zugehörigen Aufzugshaltepositionen bzw. Stockwerksnummern, gesamthaft oder zumindest ausschnittsweise dargestellt werden kann, ggf. kann hier dann auch eine Bildverschiebungs- oder Scroll-Funktionalität, realisiert sein.In an advantageous manner according to the invention, a wirelessly connected mobile data processing unit is initially associated with the configuration means, which not only drastically simplifies the handling and flexibility in the configuration, which also allows the representation of the plurality of cabin holding positions together for operator viewing within the scope of the invention by means of the display. It can This representation preferably takes place in tabular and / or graphical or other suitable manner for illustrating the relationship of the individual items, for instance also by being arranged along a symbolic vertical direction, insofar as corresponding to the elevator shaft, with the purpose of providing the operator with a simple overview to give about already established or yet to be set up cabin holding positions, at the same time to allow, for example, by simple calculations - which can be provided by additional calculation functionalities of the position data on the display by the data processing unit - can be checked for uniformity of these distances. This means that the display or the display unit according to the invention should advantageously be a display unit suitable for high-resolution image display, such that the table of all cabin holding positions with associated position data, for example, is then compared in tabular form, for example, then the respectively associated elevator holding positions or floor numbers, as a whole or at least partially can be displayed, if necessary, then also a Bildverschiebungs- or scroll functionality, be realized.
Zusätzlich sieht die Erfindung vor, der mobilen Datenverarbeitungseinheit die manuell betätigbaren Bedienmittel zum Ändern mindestens eines der Positionsdaten zuzuordnen. In doppel synergistischer Weise kann dies etwa dadurch realisiert sein, dass die weiter bevorzugt in Form eines berührungsempfindlichen Displays ausgestaltete Displayeinheit nicht nur der Bedienperson das einfache, berührende Auswählen eines zu verändernden Positionsdatums ermöglicht, auch können dann etwa geeignete Schalt- bzw. Bedienknöpfe in Form gängiger Schaltflächen des berührungsempfindlichen Displays für die erfindungsgemäße Änderung eingerichtet sein. Auch ist die erfindungsgemäße Synergie dadurch erreicht, dass weitergehende Funktionalitäten dann etwa der Bedienperson durch die Änderung bedingte Relativabstände zu vor- oder nachgeordneten Positionen automatisch anzeigt, so dass dann wiederum diesbezüglich der Bedien- und Handhabungskomfort beim Einrichten erheblich erleichtert ist.In addition, the invention provides for the mobile data processing unit to assign the manually operable operating means for changing at least one of the position data. In a twofold synergistic manner, this can be realized, for example, by the display unit, which is more preferably in the form of a touch-sensitive display, not only enabling the operator to easily select a position datum to be changed, but also suitable control knobs in the form of more common Be arranged buttons of the touch-sensitive display for the inventive change. The synergy according to the invention is also achieved by further functionalities, for example, by the operator the change conditional relative distances to pre- or subordinate positions automatically displays, so that in turn in this respect the ease of use and handling when setting up is greatly facilitated.
Dies gilt dann auch für die weiterbildungsgemäße Verarbeitung einer Mehrzahl von Positionsdaten für eine der Aufzugshaltepositionen - dies kann etwa dadurch entstehen, dass die Bedienperson die vorgesehene Aufzugshalteposition (im Rahmen der vorliegenden Offenbarung auch als Kabinenhalteposition bezeichnet) mehrfach und etwa aus verschiedenen Richtungen, mit verschiedenen Beschleunigungen o.dgl. anfährt und aus daraus dann resultierenden verschiedenen Positionswerten entweder manuell eine Auswahl eines geeigneten Wertes trifft, die Datenverarbeitungseinheit ein Mittelung oder andere Priorisierung vornehmen lässt oder auf andere Weise dann zu einem günstigen, gleichwohl mit geringem Aufwand erhältlichen optimalen Positionswert gelangt.This then also applies to the post-processing of a plurality of position data for one of the elevator holding positions - this may arise, for example, that the operator the proposed elevator holding position (in the present disclosure also referred to as cabin holding position) multiple and approximately from different directions, with different accelerations or the like. starts and from then resulting different position values either manually selects a suitable value, the data processing unit makes an averaging or other prioritization, or otherwise obtains a favorable optimal position value which is nevertheless available with little effort.
In der praktischen Umsetzung der Erfindung und zur drahtlosen Anbindung der Datenverarbeitungseinheit an die Konfigurationsmittel im Rahmen der Erfindung sind Funkstrecken bevorzugt, wobei insbesondere für den hier zu lösenden Kurzbereich eine Bluetooth-Anbindung weiter bevorzugt ist, jedoch nicht abschließend den Rahmen der Erfindung begrenzt.In the practical implementation of the invention and for wireless connection of the data processing unit to the configuration means in the context of the invention, radio links are preferred, in particular for the short range to be solved here a Bluetooth connection is further preferred, but not limited to the scope of the invention.
Zur weiteren Erhöhung des Bedienkomforts bei der Konfiguration und zur verbesserten Information der die Datenverarbeitungseinheit handhabenden Bedienperson ist es weiterbildungsgemäß zusätzlich vorgesehen, aus den Positionsmessmitteln zusätzlich ein Kabinengeschwindigkeitssignal und/oder ein Kabinenfahrtrichtungssignal zu gewinnen; in ansonsten bekannter Weise ist dem Fachmann klar, dass aus einer Abfolge von sich ändernden Positionsdaten der Positionsmittel diese zusätzlichen Informationen ohne weiteres erzeugbar und dann im Rahmen bevorzugter Weiterbildungen auf der Displayeinheit geeignet zusätzlich darstellbar sind. Etwa mit dem vorbeschriebenen Zweck einer Verbesserung der Feinjustierung ist es für die Bedienperson häufig sinnvoll, diese zusätzlichen Informationen zum aktuellen Fahrbetrieb der Aufzugskabine zu erhalten.To further increase the ease of use in the configuration and for improved information of the operator handling the data processing unit, it is further provided according to further education to additionally obtain from the position measuring means a car speed signal and / or a car direction direction signal; In an otherwise known manner, it is clear to the person skilled in the art that, from a sequence of changing position data of the position means, this additional information can be readily generated and then suitably additionally represented on the display unit in the context of preferred developments. For example, with the above-described purpose of improving the fine adjustment, it is often useful for the operator to obtain this additional information about the current driving operation of the elevator car.
In konstruktiv besonders bevorzugter Weise sehen Weiterbildungen der Erfindung vor, insbesondere die erfindungsgemäßen Positionsmessmittel sowie die erfindungsgemäßen Konfigurationsmittel miteinander modulartig zu integrieren, wobei dies weiterbildend bevorzugt dadurch geschieht, dass etwa auf einer gemeinsamen Trägereinheit die jeweiligen Baugruppen integriert sind und diese Trägereinheit dann an einer geeigneten Montageposition an oder auf einer Aufzugskabine festlegbar ist. Im Hinblick auf die Notwendigkeit für die Positionsmessmittel, zum Zusammenwirken mit typischerweise stationären Längencodierungsmitteln am oder im Aufzugsschacht an der Kabine festgelegt zu sein, bietet sich die Zuordnung der Konfigurationsmittel an, nicht zuletzt als ggf. zusätzlich synergistisch gemeinsame Elektronikbaugruppen, etwa eine mikrocontroller- oder mikroprozessor-basierte Konfigurationssteuereinheit, auch für die Positionsmessung- und -decodierung benutzt werden kann, oder umgekehrt.In a structurally particularly preferred manner, developments of the invention provide for integrating in particular the position-measuring means according to the invention and the configuration means according to the invention in a modular manner, this preferably being achieved by integrating the respective assemblies on a common carrier unit and then transporting this carrier unit to a suitable mounting position can be fixed on or on an elevator car. In view of the need for the position-measuring means to be fixed to the cabin for interaction with typically stationary length coding means on or in the elevator shaft, the allocation of the configuration means lends itself, not least as possibly additionally synergistic common electronic assemblies, such as a microcontroller or microprocessor -based configuration control unit, can also be used for position measurement and decoding, or vice versa.
Dabei ist es zusätzlich vorteilhaft und weiterbildend vorgesehen, dieser Modulanordnung (bzw. den Konfigurationsmitteln, falls diese isoliert vorgesehen sein sollten, diesen dann gesondert) Konfigurationsfreigabemittel zuzuordnen, welche weiter bevorzugt in Form eines Aktivierungsschalters realisiert sind und von der Bedienperson physisch betätigt werden müssen, um überhaupt nachfolgend dann in der vorbeschriebenen Weise, etwa von einer Bedienungsposition auf dem Aufzugsdach, den Konfigurationsbetrieb durchzuführen zu können.In this case, it is additionally advantageous and further provided that this module arrangement (or the configuration means, if these should be provided in isolation, then separately assign them) configuration release means, which are preferably realized in the form of an activation switch and must be physically operated by the operator to at all then subsequently in the manner described above, for example from an operating position on the elevator roof, to carry out the configuration operation.
Eine weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung, welche auch als Best Mode anzusehen ist, sieht vor, den Positionsmessmitteln sowie den Konfigurationsmitteln - idealerweise einander benachbart vorgesehen, s.o. - Sicherungsschalter zuzuordnen, welche zum gesteuerten Unterbrechen einer Kabinentüröffnungsfunktionalität der Aufzugskabine vorgesehen sind. Konkret werden diese so durch die Positionierungsmittel und die Konfigurationsmittel angesteuert, dass erst dann eine Kabinentüröffnung (etwa durch ein geschlossenes Rele der Sicherungsschalter) ermöglicht ist, wenn Positionsdaten der Positionsmessmittel den eingestellten und gespeicherten Kabinenhaltepositionen entsprechen oder von diesen um nicht mehr als ein vorbestimmtes Toleranzmaß abweichen. Auch diese Maßnahme erhöht auf konstruktiv einfache Weise die Sicherheit des Konfigurationsbetriebs signifikant.A further advantageous embodiment of the invention, which is also to be regarded as best mode, provides for the position-measuring means as well as the configuration means-ideally provided adjacent to one another, thus - to assign safety switches, which are provided for the controlled interruption of a car door opening functionality of the elevator car. Specifically, these are so controlled by the positioning means and the configuration means, that only a car door opening (such as a closed Rele the circuit breaker) is possible if position data of the position measuring means correspond to the set and stored cabin holding positions or deviate from them by no more than a predetermined tolerance , This measure also significantly increases the safety of the configuration operation in a structurally simple manner.
Im Ergebnis lässt sich dann mit der vorliegenden Erfindung ein Aufzugsystem realisieren, welche drastisch vereinfachte Konfiguration mit erhöhtem Bedienkomfort, höherer Betriebssicherheit in der Konfiguration und signifikant zu reduzierenden Konfigurationszeiten und Anlernzeiten kombiniert.As a result, an elevator system can be realized with the present invention, which combines drastically simplified configuration with increased ease of use, higher reliability in the configuration and significantly reduce configuration times and training times.

Vor diesem Hintergrund verdeutlicht die
Mit der zentralen Steuereinheit 18 ist ferner eine Konfigurationseinheit (Konfigurationsmittel) 16 verbunden, dergestalt, dass mittels der Baugruppe 16 sowohl vorbestimmte Positionsdaten für Kabinenhaltepositionen entlang der Schachtrichtung erfassbar sind (und nachfolgend in zugeordneten Permanent-Datenspeichermitteln 22 abgelegt werden können), gleichermaßen dann jedoch in einem späteren Dauerbetrieb der Aufzugsanlage jeweils vorbestimmte bzw. angewählte Vorgaben, etwa Stockwerksnummern, mittels der Konfigurationseinheit und den in der Einheit 22 gespeicherten Daten so bereitgestellt bzw. zurückgeführt werden können, dass eine Positionierung der Aufzugskabine entsprechend der vorgewählten Position erfolgen kann. Diese Funktionalität wird über die mittels einer Datenleitung 32 angebundenen Positionssteuereinheit 34 (Positionssteuermittel) realisiert, welche üblicherweise getrennt von der modulartig realisierten Einheit 10 entweder selbst an der Aufzugskabine, alternativ an einer Fixposition am oder im Aufzugsschacht, vorgesehen sein kann. Diese Positionssteuermittel bewirken dann wiederum in ansonsten bekannter Weise das Betreiben der Antriebsmittel 4, 8 für eine Aufzugskabine 2 so, dass diese an ihre (entsprechend der Konfiguration 16, 22) vorbestimmte Position fahren kann.With the

Konkret würde eine Bedienperson durch Aktivieren der Schaltereinheit 24 (welche im Übrigen auch in der Art eines ansonsten bekannten Notschalters auszugestalten ist) einen Konfigurationsbetrieb freigeben bzw. aktivieren, so dass dann mittels der drahtlos angebundenen Datenverarbeitungseinheit 26 geeignete Konfigurationsdaten empfangen, betrachtet und ggf. geändert oder manipuliert werden können. Zu diesem Zweck positioniert zunächst eine Bedienperson, welche sich etwa bei diesem Betrieb typischerweise innerhalb der Kabine 2 oder auf dem Dach der Kabine 2 befinden kann, durch (nicht näher im Detail gezeigte) manuelle Steuerung mittels der Positionssteuermittel 34 die Kabine an eine Position, welche einer zu konfigurierenden Stockwerksposition entspricht. Diese dadurch bewirkte Relativposition zwischen Kabine 2 und Codestreifen 12 führt zu einer (hier aufgrund der Absolutcodierung eindeutigen) Positionssignalerzeugung durch den Positionssensor 14, wobei dieses Positionssignal, geeignet umgesetzt etwa in eine Dimensions- oder Höhenangabe im Schacht, mittels der zentralen Steuereinheit 18 und der Schnittstelleneinheit 20 zur Datenverarbeitungseinheit 26 übertragen wird, wo eine Darstellung, etwa in Form eines Zahlenpaares (Stockwerksnummer, absolute Positionsangabe) auf dem Display 28 erfolgt. Nachdem dann etwa die Bedienperson diese Position bestätigt hat und eine weitere, alternative Position (etwa entsprechend eine alternative Stockwerksnummer) anfährt, wird auch hier die zugehörige Stockwerks- und Höheninformation dem Benutzer auf dem Display 28 angezeigt, idealerweise in Form einer Tabelle, so dass etwa, ggf. weiter zusätzlich grafisch oder numerisch aufbereitet, die Bedienperson nicht nur jede einzelne Maß- und Stockwerksangabe visuell überprüfen kann, sondern zudem auch diese Überprüfung gesamthaft anhand der Tabelle erfolgen kann, etwa auch dadurch, dass zusätzlich berechnet und angezeigt wird, ob die relativen Abstände zwischen einzelnen, aufeinander folgenden Stockwerken tatsächlich gleich sind, oder aber ob Dimensions-, Mess- oder Positionsfehler vorliegen.In concrete terms, an operator would activate or activate a configuration operation by activating the switch unit 24 (which, incidentally, should also be designed in the manner of an otherwise known emergency switch), so that suitable configuration data are received, viewed and, if necessary, modified by means of the wirelessly connected
Der Bedienperson durch entsprechende Bedienung des berührungsempfindlichen Displays 28 ist es dann ermöglicht, individuell auf einzelne Positionswerte, die dargestellt werden, zuzugreifen, etwa dadurch, dass in ansonsten bekannter Weise durch Berühren eine Auswahl eines zu behandelnden Wertes stattfindet und dann mittels geeigneter Bedienflächen, etwa "Plus" oder "Minus", eine manuelle Feinjustierung und Korrektur erfolgen kann. Auf diese Weise ist es dann der Bedienperson auf einfache, übersichtliche, betriebssichere und bedienungsfreundliche Weise gestattet, einen vollständigen abschließenden und der Konfiguration zugrunde liegenden Satz von Positionsdaten zu erzeugen, welcher dann, zur dauerhaften Speicherung in der Einheit 22 und zur zukünftigen Verwendung in einem Dauerbetrieb der Aufzugsanlage durch die Einheit 34, der Positionierung zugrunde liegen kann.The operator, by appropriate operation of the touch-
Gemäß einer bevorzugten Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist es zusätzlich möglich, für jede (anzufahrende bzw. zu konfigurierende) Position der Aufzugskabine längs der Codierungsstrecke 12 auch eine Mehrzahl von Positionsdaten aufzunehmen; dies dient dazu, etwa aus einer Mehrzahl von Messwerten einen Optimalwert zu interpolieren oder zu mitteln. So ist es beispielsweise aufgrund inhärenten Hystereseverhaltens der Positionsmessanordnung denkbar, dass Positionsangaben dadurch variieren, dass eine Bedienperson eine vorbestimmte Aufzugsposition aus zwei Richtungen (d.h. von oben oder von unten) anfährt, mit dem Ergebnis, dass möglicherweise dann ein manueller Benutzereingriff zu einer Auswahl oder zur Bildung eines Mittelwerts o.dgl. abschließenden Positionswerts führt. Auch diesbezüglich ist eine mittels der grafikfähigen Displayanordnung 28 ermöglichte tabellarische und visuelle Aufbereitung der ideale Weg, diese komplexe Konfigurationsaufgabe einfach und betriebssicher zu lösen.According to a preferred development of the invention, it is additionally possible to record a plurality of position data for each position (to be approached or to be configured) of the elevator car along the
Unabhängig von diesen exemplarischen Bedienvorgängen liegt es im Rahmen der fachmännischen Ausgestaltung der Erfindung, sowohl die Bedienschnittstelle beliebig weiter zu entwickeln und auszugestalten - so könnten etwa auch über "Plus" oder "Minus"-Bedienflächen vorbestimmte Aufzugspositionen ausgewählt oder angefahren werden, ebenso wie etwa eine Löschfunktion ausgewählt werden kann, mit dem Zweck, eine Fehlbedienung oder eine unerwünschte Position völlig neu anzufahren und neu zu konfigurieren.Regardless of these exemplary operations, it is within the scope of the expert design of the invention, both the user interface further develop and design - so could be selected or approached about "plus" or "minus" control surfaces predetermined elevator positions, as well as about Deletion function can be selected, with the purpose of completely restarting and reconfiguring a faulty operation or an undesired position.
Zusätzlich kann es bei der Konfiguration sinnvoll sein, der Bedienperson ergänzend Beschleunigungs- und/oder Geschwindigkeitswerte einer (aktuellen) Kabinenbewegung anzuzeigen, ebenso wie etwa in ansonsten bekannter Weise ein Zugriffsschutz oder andere Sicherungsmaßnahmen auf die Konfiguration durchgeführt werden können. Es liegt im Rahmen der praktischen Ausgestaltung der Erfindung, diese insbesondere auch in Form üblicher Applikations-Software-Anwendungen über bekannte Verteilplattformen zur Verfügung zu stellen, so dass für eine permanente Aktualisierung dieser Technologie selbst bei einer weit verbreiteten Nutzung gesorgt ist.In addition, it may be useful in the configuration to additionally display to the operator acceleration and / or speed values of a (current) cabin movement, as well as in an otherwise known manner, an access protection or other security measures can be performed on the configuration. It is within the scope of the practical embodiment of the invention to make these available in particular in the form of customary application software applications via known distribution platforms, so that a permanent updating of this technology is ensured even in the case of widespread use.
Im Ergebnis erreicht die vorliegende Erfindung in überraschend einfacher und eleganter Weise die signifikante Verbesserung des Konfigurations- und Einrichtebetriebs eines Aufzugssystems mit der Justage (Teaching) jeweiliger Aufzugs-Haltepositionen (Stockwerkspositionen) relativ zu einer Position an der Längencodierung. Hinzu kommt der Vorteil, dass durch die Integration insbesondere der Positionsmessung und der Konfigurationsmittel modulartig in oder auf einer gemeinsamen Trägereinheit und zum Vorsehen an der Kabine ein einfacher, wartungs- und bedienungsfreundlicher Weg geschaffen ist, diese Technologie umzusetzen, nicht zuletzt als ohnehin in Form gängiger Positionierungssysteme entsprechende mechanische Infrastruktur bereits zur Verfügung steht.As a result, the present invention achieves, in a surprisingly simple and elegant manner, the significant improvement in the configuration and setup operation of an elevator system with the adjustment (teaching) of respective elevator hold positions (floor positions) relative to a position on the length code. Added to this is the advantage that the integration of, in particular, the position measurement and the configuration means in a modular manner in or on a common carrier unit and to provide for the cabin a simple, easy to maintain and easy to use way to implement this technology, not least than in any case more common form Positioning systems corresponding mechanical infrastructure is already available.
