Definitions

  • Control device for controlling an elevator system in an inspection company and elevator system
  • the present invention relates to a control device for controlling an elevator installation in an inspection operation.
  • the invention also relates to an elevator installation with such a control device.
  • Elevators such as passenger or goods lifts are usually equipped with a safety circuit.
  • a safety circuit typically includes a series connection of safety-relevant switches, of which at least one can be opened under certain operating conditions, for example when the elevator is put into an inspection mode, a malfunction is detected or a car door, shaft door, maintenance door or maintenance hatch is opened. If the safety circuit is interrupted, the elevator is brought to a standstill by switching off a drive of the elevator and activating a braking device for braking the elevator.
  • the switches monitor, for example, the closed states of elevator doors, i. H. a car door and several shaft doors, so that it can be ensured that a car can only be moved when all elevator doors are closed and the associated door switches are thus actuated.
  • the safety circuit is usually interrupted, for example because a corresponding switch in the safety circuit was opened by placing the elevator in inspection mode or a shaft door had to be opened so that a technician could enter an elevator shaft through it can.
  • open contacts of the safety circuit can be closed via an inspection path.
  • the inspection path can be closed via an inspection control with several operating buttons.
  • a first control button for enabling a travel movement and a second control button for specifying a direction of travel must be pressed at the same time.
  • the inspection path becomes, and with it the safety circuit, interrupted again immediately, which results in an immediate activation of the braking device and a relatively abrupt braking of the elevator.
  • forces can be created that place a heavy load on the load-bearing elements of the elevator. The forces can cause vibrations that affect the maintenance personnel and their processes, such as the precise positioning of the cabin.
  • EP 2493 802 B1 describes a safety circuit in an elevator installation.
  • the safety circuit comprises at least one series connection of safety-relevant contacts that are closed when the elevator system is operating correctly. At least one of the contacts can be bridged by means of semiconductor switches, the semiconductor switches being controllable by means of at least one processor and being able to be monitored for short circuits by means of at least one monitoring circuit.
  • the safety circuit comprises at least one electromechanical relay circuit with relay contacts connected in series with the contacts of the bridgeable series circuit. The relay circuit can be controlled by means of the processor. In the event of a short circuit in the semiconductor switch, the bridgeable series circuit can be interrupted by means of the relay contacts.
  • the prior art is about the safe interruption of the bridging path because the car is moving towards an unsafe state.
  • the aim of the invention is to end a car movement in the inspection mode. There is no urgency.
  • a first aspect of the invention relates to a control device for controlling an elevator installation in an inspection operation.
  • the elevator system comprises a safety circuit with at least one safety contact that is open during inspection operation and an inspection path for bridging the at least one safety contact.

  • the first delay element is designed to delay opening of the first contact by a defined first delay time from the release of the first operating element.
  • the control device further comprises a second switching unit connected in parallel with the first switching unit, which has a second contact and a second delay element and is designed to close the second contact in response to actuation of the second operating element and in response to releasing the second operating element to open.
  • the second delay element is designed to delay opening of the second contact by a defined second delay time from the release of the second operating element.
  • the first contact and the second contact are connected in series in the inspection path.
  • Such a control device makes it possible to activate a braking device of the elevator system offset in time for releasing at least one of the two control buttons of the inspection control.
  • This delay can be used to stop the elevator system in a controlled manner by regulating a drive of the elevator system before the elevator system is mechanically braked by the braking device. In this way, the load on load-bearing elements of the elevator system can be reduced. Wear of the brake disks and brake linings of the brake device can also be reduced.
  • Another advantage is the increased comfort for the maintenance staff, especially if the maintenance staff is on a car roof when moving the elevator system.
  • a safety circuit can be understood to be an electrical circuit of the elevator system which comprises a series connection of several safety-relevant contacts. These safety contacts can be closed in normal operation, so that the entire safety circuit is closed and thus, in particular, a shifting of the car is permitted. Under certain operating conditions, for example in the event of a malfunction or when the elevator system is put into an inspection mode, at least one of the safety switches and thus the entire safety circuit can be opened, whereby the elevator system is shut down. In particular, the If the safety circuit is interrupted, emergency braking of the elevator system can be initiated.
  • An inspection path can be understood as a current path parallel to the series connection of the safety contacts.
  • the inspection path can have a series connection of at least two switching contacts.
  • the safety contacts can be bridged by closing all contacts in the inspection path.

  • the first control element and the second control element can each be coupled to a programmable elevator control of the elevator installation.
  • the elevator control can be configured to detect a respective current switching state of the operating elements and, depending on the switching state, to control a converter of the elevator installation.
  • the first operating element can be a switch for enabling a travel movement of the elevator installation and the second operating element can be a switch for specifying a direction of the travel movement.
  • the first switching unit and the second switching unit can, for example, be constructed identically.
  • the two switching units can comprise electromechanical and / or electronic components.
  • the two switching units can be implemented entirely in hardware, for example in the form of electromechanical relays. This makes it possible to reduce the amount of testing required before an elevator installation equipped with such a control device is put into operation.
  • the respective contacts of the two switching units can be mechanical contacts or semiconductor contacts.
  • the two delay elements can each be an additional capacitor for storing electrical energy required to actuate the associated contacts.
  • the capacitor can be connected to the associated contacts in such a way that, when the capacitor is discharged, the associated contacts can no longer be actuated either.

  • the third switching unit K3 is blocked for any reason, so that the contacts K3-1, K3-2, K3-3 remain in the rest position, although a current is flowing through the third coil S3, the two control connections A1, A2 cannot either more can be connected to the energy source 208. This ensures that with a Disturbance of the third switching unit K3, the two switching units Kl, K2 remain in their respective rest position despite actuation of the respective operating elements PB1, PB2 and thus the inspection path 202 is not closed.
  • FIG. 5 shows a switching state of the control device 200 when the second operating element PB2 is actuated in addition to the first operating element PB1.
  • a current flows to the second coil connection A2 via the closed second bypass path 212, so that the second capacitor C2 is charged and the second coil S2 picks up.
  • the contact K2-1 between the second coil connection A2 and the second operating element PB2 and the contact K2-3 in the inspection path 202 are closed, while the contact K2-2 between the third coil connection A3 and the energy source 208 is opened.
  • the third coil S3 is still sufficiently supplied with current via the third capacitor C3, so that the contact K3-3 located in the inspection path 202 is still open and the contacts K3 -1, K3-2 are still closed.
  • the two coil connections A1, A2 are each disconnected from the energy source 208, but are temporarily supplied with current via the respective capacitors CI, C2.
  • the elevator control can bring about a controlled stopping of the elevator car 102 at an early stage before the braking device 108 is activated in response to the interruption of the safety circuit 206.
  • Fig. 8 shows an exemplary embodiment of the first switching unit Kl as a relay in the rest position. It can be seen at a glance which of the contacts act as make contacts and which as break contacts. Shown are the first coil S1, the first capacitor CI connected in parallel with it, an armature 800 that can be moved electromagnetically between the rest position and an actuating position by means of the coil S1, here a tie rod as an example, and the three contacts Kl-1, Kl-2, Kl 3, which are each mechanically coupled to the armature 800 and thus positively driven.
  • FIG 9 schematically shows an exemplary embodiment of the second switching unit K2 as a relay in the rest position.
  • Fig. 10 shows schematically an exemplary embodiment of the third switching unit K3 as a relay in the rest position.
  • the switching units K2, K3 are each designed analogously to the first switching unit Kl.
