前述の従来のエレベーター装置、すなわちワンシャフトマルチカーエレベーターでは、一つの昇降経路に二台のかごを配置してそれぞれ昇降運転する場合に、二台のかごの運転方向、運転速度、運転位置をそれぞれ確認しながら協調して制御して二台のかごの相互が異常接近する不具合を防ぐようになっている。しかし、巻上機の駆動綱車と巻上ロープとの間の滑り等の不測の事態が発生したときには、二台のかごが相互に異常接近する不具合が生じるという問題点があった。
【0006】
この発明は、かかる問題点を解消するためになされたものであり、一つの昇降経路を昇降する二台のかご相互における異常接近を防ぐエレベーター装置を得ることを目的とする。
【0007】
【課題を解決するための手段】

【0008】
【発明の実施の形態】
実施の形態1.
図1は、この発明の実施の形態の一例を概念的に示す斜視図である。図において、昇降路1の上端寄りに第一巻上機2が設けられ、また図示が省略してあるが昇降路1に立設された案内レールが設けられ、この案内レールに案内されて所定経路を昇降する第一かご3が設けられる。そして、第一主索4が第一巻上機2の駆動綱車及び第一巻上機2に近接して設けられたそらせ車5に巻掛けられて張設され、一端に第一かご3が連結されて他端には昇降路1を昇降する第一つり合おもり6が連結される。
【0009】
また、昇降路1の第一巻上機2位置よりも上側に第二巻上機7が設けられ、また第二かご8が第一かご3の下側に配置され、第二かご8は第一かご3が案内される案内レールに案内されて第一かご3と同じ所定経路を昇降する。そして、昇降路1を昇降する第二つり合おもり9が、第一つり合おもり6の上側に配置される。
【0010】
そして、第二主索10が第二巻上機7の駆動綱車及び第二巻上機7に近接して設けられたそらせ車11に巻掛けられて張設され、一端に第二かご8が連結されて第一かご3の両側を経て配置され、他端に第二つり合おもり9が連結される。また、第二主索10は第一かご3及び第二かご8が相互に所定間隔を超えて接近したときに、第一つり合おもり6及び第二つり合おもり9が相互に行き当たる長さに張設される。
【0011】
なお、第一主索4は第二つり合おもり9に設けられた上下方向の貫通孔に挿通されて吊設される。そして、緩衝器12が第一つり合おもり6に設けられて上方に突出し、第二つり合おもり9の下面と対向して配置される。
【0012】
上記のように構成されたエレベーター装置において、昇降路1の一つの昇降経路に第一かご3及び第二かご8の両者を配置して、それぞれのかごの運転方向、運転速度、運転位置をそれぞれ確認しながら協調して制御して上記両者の相互が異常接近しないように運転される。そして第二主索10の長さが、上記両者が相互に所定間隔を超えて接近したときに、第一つり合おもり6及び第二つり合おもり9の双者が相互に行き当たる長さに設定される。
【0013】
このため、第一巻上機2、第二巻上機7の駆動綱車と、その駆動綱車に巻掛けられた主索との間における滑り発生等の不測の事態によって、上記両者が相互に所定間隔を超えて接近したときに上記双者が相互に行き当たる。これにより、上記両者が相互に異常接近する不具合の発生を未然に防ぐことができる。
【0014】
また、第一つり合おもり6に緩衝器12が上方に突出して設けられて、第二つり合おもり9の下面と対向して配置される。このため、上記両者が相互に所定間隔を超えて接近したときに上記双者が相互に行き当たるときの衝撃が緩衝される。これにより、上記双者の変形等の発生を防ぐことができ、また上記双者が相互に行き当たることによって上記両者に生じる衝撃力を軽減することができる。
【0015】
また、緩衝器12が第二つり合おもり9の下面から下方に突出して設けられて、第一つり合おもり6の上面と対向して配置された構成であっても、図1の実施の形態における作用を得ることができる。

そして、昇降路1に第一検出装置13が設けられ、第一検出装置13は昇降路1の上方に枢着された駆動車14、昇降路1の下方に配置された張り車15、無端状をなし駆動車14及び張り車15に巻掛けられて一側が第一かご3に連結された巻掛条体16並びに駆動車14によって駆動される第一検出器17によって形成される。
【0018】
また、昇降路1に第二検出装置18が設けられ、第二検出装置18は昇降路1の上方に枢着された駆動車19、昇降路1の下方に配置された張り車20、無端状をなし駆動車19及び張り車20に巻掛けられて一側が第二かご8に連結された巻掛条体21並びに駆動車19によって駆動される第二検出器22によって形成される。
【0019】
そして、第一検出器17に第一位置演算器23及び第一速度演算器24が接続され、第二検出器22に第二位置演算器25及び第二速度演算器26が接続される。また、第一減算器27が第一位置演算器23及び第二位置演算器25に接続され、第二減算器28が第一速度演算器24及び第二速度演算器26に接続される。
【0020】
また、判定装置29が設けられて第一速度演算器24、第二速度演算器26、第一減算器27及び第二減算器28が接続される。そして、判定装置29に接続された第一制御装置30が設けられて第一巻上機2の電動機31及び制動機32に接続され、また判定装置29に接続された第二制御装置33が設けられて第二巻上機7の電動機34及び制動機35に接続される。
【0021】
また、第一速度演算器24に接続された第一制動距離演算器36、第二速度演算器26に接続された第二制動距離演算器37が設けられる。そして、第一制動距離演算器36及び第二制動距離演算器37に接続された第三減算器38が設けられ、また第二減算器28及び第三減算器38が接続されて判定装置29に接続された比較器39が設けられる。
【0022】
上記のように構成されたエレベーター装置において、昇降路1の一つの昇降経路に第一かご3及び第二かご8の両者を配置して、それぞれのかごの運転方向、運転速度、運転位置をそれぞれ確認しながら協調して制御し上記両者の相互が異常接近しないように運転される。
【0023】
そして、上記両者が相互に所定間隔を超えて接近したときに、第二主索10の長さが第一つり合おもり6及び第二つり合おもり9の双者が相互に行き当たる長さに設定される。また、第一つり合おもり6に緩衝器12が設けられて、第二つり合おもり9に対向して配置される。したがって、詳細な説明を省略するが図2〜図4の実施の形態においても図1の実施の形態と同様な作用が得られる。
【0024】
また、図2〜図4の実施の形態において、第一検出器17の動作による第一かご3に関わる信号から第一位置演算器23により第一かご3の昇降路1における絶対位置yが演算され、また第一速度演算器24により第一かご3の速度vが演算される。そして、第二検出器22の動作による第二かご8に関わる信号から第二位置演算器25により第二かご8の昇降路1における絶対位置yが演算され、また第二速度演算器26により第二かご8の速度vが演算される。
【0025】
そして、第二かご8を基準とした場合の第一かご3と第二かご8との相対位置は、第一減算器27により第一かご3の絶対位置から第二かご8の絶対位置を減算することによって算出される。また、第二かご8を基準とした場合の第一かご3と第二かご8との相対速度は、第二減算器28により第一かご3の絶対速度から第二かご8の絶対速度を減算することによって算出される。
【0026】
このようにして得られた第一かご3の速度v、第二かご8の速度v、第一かご3と第二かご8の相対位置(y−y)及び第一かご3と第二かご8の相対速度(v−v)が判定装置29へ入力される。
また、判定装置29での判定が次に述べるように行われる。すなわち、第一かご3と第二かご8の両者の相対位置及び相対速度は第二かご8を基準として算出し、この場合に相対速度が正のときは第二かご8から第一かご3が離れる方向に移動するので上記両者に異常接近が生じることはない。
【0027】
しかし、上記両者の相対速度が負のときは上記両者が互いに接近する方向に移動するが、上記両者相互間の距離が十分長い場合は相対速度が負であっても不都合が発生することはない。しかし、上記両者相互間の距離が短い場合には上記両者相互の異常接近が生じる可能性が生じてくる。
【0028】
そして、上記両者の相対速度が負の場合における上記両者の異常接近が生じる可能性の有無の判定が次に述べるようにして行われる。すなわち、第一かご3が速度vから非常制動されて停止するまでに移動する距離を第一制動距離演算器36によって演算してその結果をyUEとする。また、第二かご8が速度vから非常制動されて停止するまでに移動する距離を第二制動距離演算器37によって演算してその結果をyLEとする。
【0029】
そして、上記両者の制動距離の差(yUE−yLE)を減算器38によって算出し、この制動距離の差(yUE−yLE)とその時の相対距離(y−y)との差を比較器39によって比較する。この比較結果が負の場合は、上記両者の少なくとも一方を昇降させると異常接近が生じる可能性があるので、比較器39の負の出力によって判定装置29が動作し急停止指令が発せられる。
【0030】
この判定装置29の急停止指令によって、第一制御装置30を介して第一巻上機2の電動機31が消勢され、また制動機32が制動動作し、また第二制御装置33を介して第二巻上機7の電動機34が消勢され、また制動機35が制動動作する。これによって、上記両者が相互に異常接近する不具合の発生を未然に防ぐことができる。
【0031】
なお、図3及び図4に示す上記両者の異常接近防止制御回路を、エレベーター一般の制御回路とは別に独立回路として設置する。そして、異常接近防止制御回路により上記両者に関わる距離や速度を検定することによって、上記両者の異常接近発生を一層確実に防止することができる。
【0032】
また、図2〜図4の実施の形態における第一かご3及び第二かご8の両者の異常接近防止制御回路を、昇降路1の一つの昇降経路に三台以上のかごが配置されたワンシャフトマルチカーエレベーターに容易に応用することができる。これによって、一つの昇降経路に三台以上のかごが配置されたワンシャフトマルチカーエレベーターからなるエレベーター装置において、かごが相互に異常接近する不具合の発生を未然に防ぐことができる。
【0033】
【発明の効果】
この発明は以上説明したように、昇降路の所定経路を昇降する第一かごと、昇降路近くに設けられた第一巻上機に巻掛けられ、一端に第一かごが連結されて他端には昇降路を昇降する第一つり合おもりが連結された第一主索と、第一かごと同じ所定経路を昇降し第一かごの下側に配置された第二かごと、昇降路近くに設けられた第二巻上機に巻掛けられ、一端に第二かごが連結されて他端には第一つり合おもりの上側に配置されて昇降路を昇降する第二つり合おもりが連結され、第一かご及び第二かごが相互に所定間隔を超えて接近したときに第一つり合おもり及び第二つり合おもりが相互に行き当たる長さに張設された第二主索とを設けたものである。
【0034】
これによって、昇降路1の一つの昇降経路に第一かご及び第二かごの両者を配置して、それぞれのかごの運転方向、運転速度、運転位置をそれぞれ確認しながら協調して制御して上記両者の相互が異常接近しないように運転される。そして、不測の事態発生によって上記両者が相互に所定間隔を超えて接近したときに、第二主索の長さが第一つり合おもり及び第二つり合おもりの双者が相互に行き当たる長さに設定される。このため、不測の事態発生時に上記両者が相互に所定間隔を超えて接近したときに上記双者が相互に行き当たる。これにより、上記両者が相互に異常接近する不具合の発生を未然に防ぐ効果がある。

Then, the absolute position y L of the second car 8 in the hoistway 1 is calculated by the second position calculator 25 from the signal related to the second car 8 by the operation of the second detector 22, and the second speed calculator 26 The speed v L of the second car 8 is calculated.
[0025]
Then, the relative position between the first car 3 and the second car 8 based on the second car 8 is obtained by subtracting the absolute position of the second car 8 from the absolute position of the first car 3 by the first subtractor 27. Is calculated. The relative speed between the first car 3 and the second car 8 based on the second car 8 is obtained by subtracting the absolute speed of the second car 8 from the absolute speed of the first car 3 by the second subtractor 28. Is calculated.
[0026]
The thus obtained velocity v U of the first cage 3, a velocity v L, the first car 3 relative position of the second cage 8 (y U -y L) and the first cage 3 second cage 8 the relative speed of the second car 8 (v U -v L) is input to the decision unit 29.
The determination by the determination device 29 is performed as described below. That is, the relative position and the relative speed of both the first car 3 and the second car 8 are calculated based on the second car 8, and in this case, when the relative speed is positive, the first car 3 is moved from the second car 8. Since they move away from each other, there is no possibility that both of them will approach abnormally.
[0027]
However, when the relative speed of the two is negative, the two move in the direction approaching each other, but when the distance between the two is sufficiently long, no inconvenience occurs even if the relative speed is negative. . However, when the distance between the two is short, there is a possibility that the two may abnormally approach to each other.
[0028]
Then, when the relative speed between the two is negative, the determination as to whether or not there is a possibility that the two may abnormally approach is performed as described below. That is, the results of the distance which the first car 3 is moved until the stop is emergency braking from a speed v U is calculated by the first braking distance calculator 36 and y UE. Further, the distance that the second car 8 moves from the speed v L to the emergency braking and stops is calculated by the second braking distance calculator 37, and the result is set as y LE .
[0029]
Then, the difference (y UE −y LE ) between the above braking distances is calculated by the subtracter 38, and the difference between this braking distance (y UE −y LE ) and the relative distance (y U −y L ) at that time is calculated. The difference is compared by the comparator 39. When the comparison result is negative, when at least one of the two is raised and lowered, an abnormal approach may occur. Therefore, the negative output of the comparator 39 activates the determination device 29 and issues a sudden stop command.
[0030]
In response to the sudden stop command from the determination device 29, the electric motor 31 of the first hoisting machine 2 is deenergized via the first control device 30, the braking device 32 performs a braking operation, and via the second control device 33 The electric motor 34 of the second hoisting machine 7 is deenergized, and the brake 35 performs the braking operation. As a result, it is possible to prevent a problem in which the above-mentioned two approaches abnormally close to each other.
[0031]
The control circuit for preventing abnormal approach of both shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 is installed as an independent circuit separately from a general control circuit of an elevator. Then, the abnormal approach prevention control circuit examines the distance and the speed related to the two, so that the occurrence of the abnormal approach between the two can be more reliably prevented.
[0032]
In addition, the control circuit for preventing abnormal access of both the first car 3 and the second car 8 in the embodiment of FIGS. 2 to 4 is provided by a one-way system in which three or more cars are arranged in one hoistway of the hoistway 1. It can be easily applied to shaft multi-car elevators. As a result, in an elevator apparatus including a one-shaft multi-car elevator in which three or more cars are arranged in one elevating route, it is possible to prevent occurrence of a problem that the cars abnormally approach each other.
[0033]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, the present invention, as described above, a first car that moves up and down a predetermined path of a hoistway, is wound around a first hoist provided near a hoistway, and a first car is connected to one end and the other end is The first main rope connected with the first weight to lift up and down the hoistway, the first car and the second car placed under the first car up and down the same predetermined path, near the hoistway A second car weight connected to one end is connected to the second hoist, and the other end is connected to the second car weight which is disposed above the first weight and is moved up and down the hoistway. When the first car and the second car approach each other beyond a predetermined distance, the first main weight and the second main rope are stretched to a length at which the second weight and the second weight can reach each other. It is provided.
[0034]
Thereby, both the first car and the second car are arranged in one hoistway of the hoistway 1, and the driving direction, the operating speed, and the operating position of each car are checked and controlled in a coordinated manner to perform the above. The two are operated so that they do not approach each other abnormally. Then, when the two approach each other beyond a predetermined interval due to the occurrence of an unexpected situation, the length of the second main rope is equal to the length at which the twins of the first and second weights come to each other. Is set to Therefore, when an unexpected situation occurs, when the two approach each other beyond a predetermined interval, the two come into contact with each other. This has the effect of preventing the occurrence of a problem in which the two are approaching each other abnormally.
