Description

The present invention relates to a shutter device including an automatic closing device and a manual closing device.

Conventionally, a so-called harm prevention interlocking repeater is known as an electric shutter control device. In the event of a fire, the interlocking repeater for hazard prevention uses a self-closing device to lower the weight of the shutter curtain to prevent the fire from spreading through an automatic closing device, and when an obstacle is detected during the weight drop of the shutter curtain. First, the weight drop of the shutter curtain is stopped via the evacuation stop device.

In such a shutter device, a so-called manual closing device is used together so that the shutter curtain can be lowered manually in the event of a fire. Conventionally, as a manual closing device, an electric manual closing device that is electrically connected to a harm prevention interlocking repeater has been used, and for the electric manual closing device, a harm prevention interlocking repeater is operated. An emergency operation switch is provided, and pressing the emergency operation switch lowers the shutter curtain to close the opening. For example, Patent Document 1 describes a manual closing mechanism of a fire shutter equipped with a manual closing device that is electrically connected to an automatic closing device.

However, the opening cannot be closed using this electric manual closing device at the time of a power failure and when there is no capacity of the battery power source mounted on the harmless interlocking repeater.

In addition, in a conventional mechanical manual closing device that simply pulls the release lever of the automatic closing device with a wire, the release lever moves by pulling the wire to release the brake of the switch, but the shutter curtain falls under its own weight. Since the release lever is kept pulled by the wire, the release lever is restricted from moving in the brake return direction and is released even when an obstacle comes in contact with the seat plate. There is a possibility that the lever cannot return to the brake return direction and the descending shutter curtain cannot be stopped.

An object of the present invention is to provide a shutter device capable of manually releasing a brake via an automatic closing device even when there is no capacity of a battery power source mounted on a control device at the time of a power failure. Another object of the present invention is to satisfactorily detect an obstacle even when the control device is electrically effective, even during closing by a manual closing device.

A shutter device employed by the present invention includes an automatic closing device that releases a brake of an opening / closing machine in a fire to lower the shutter curtain by its own weight, and a manual closing device that lowers the shutter curtain via the automatic closing device. In the device, the automatic closing device is configured to be in a brake released state via a brake releasing means by energization at the time of detecting a fire, and to hold the brake released state in a non-energized state, the manual closing device Has an emergency operation switch and a wire connecting the emergency operation switch and the brake releasing means of the automatic closing device, and one end side of the wire connected to the emergency operation switch operated the emergency operation switch. It is configured to be pulled only at the time and return to the original position when the operation is released. Operated by, the brake lever release means is released the brake by moving, after the operation releasing the emergency activation switch, one end of the wire is the brake release state while returning to its original position is maintained, the shutter device is. In one preferred embodiment, the operation of the emergency operation switch is a push operation (such as when the switch is a button), but may be a pulling operation (such as when the switch is a lever).

In one preferred embodiment, the automatic closing device adopted by the present invention includes an electric motor driven by energization by a brake release signal, means for releasing a brake lever by driving the electric motor, and energization to the electric motor after releasing the brake. , A means for maintaining the brake release state in a non-energized state after the power supply to the electric motor is cut off, and a brake return means for releasing the brake release state based on a brake return signal.

In one preferable aspect, the electric motor is a motor having a lock function, and the brake release means is movable between one direction for releasing the brake and the other direction for returning the brake. The self-closing device is a non-excited electromagnetic brake that locks with the electric motor when it is not energized and rotates integrally to move the brake release means, and when energized, the lock with the electric motor is released and it can rotate. And a return means for moving the brake release means in the other direction. The means for holding the brake released state includes a lock function of the motor and a holding force of the non-excitation electromagnetic brake when not energized. The brake return means includes an energization means for a non-excited electrode brake and the return means. In one aspect, the movable brake releasing means can reciprocate between one direction for releasing the brake and the other direction for returning the brake. The movable brake releasing means also includes a wire that can be pulled out and retracted so that one end is fixed to the brake lever and the other end is wound by an electric motor. Moreover, in one aspect, the means for interrupting energization to the electric motor after releasing the brake is a micro switch. In the present invention, as soon as the micro switch is turned on, the energization to the electric motor is cut off and the rotation of the electric motor is stopped. Therefore, when the micro switch is turned on, the stop position of the brake lever release means is determined. Therefore, if it is necessary to adjust the position or amount of movement of the brake lever release means, adjust the position of the micro switch (for example, make the micro switch variable in the direction of movement of the brake lever release means). It can be done easily.

More preferably, the motor having the locking function is a worm geared motor having a self-locking function, and the means for maintaining the brake released state includes a self-locking function of the worm geared motor and a non-excitation when deenergized. Holding force of the electromagnetic brake. In place of the worm geared motor having a self-locking function, a motor having a locking function may be configured from a motor with a brake.

The automatic closing device that holds the brake released state in a non-energized state is not limited to the above-described one. For example, an automatic closing device having a configuration disclosed in Japanese Patent Application No. 2005-50693 can be adopted. it can.

The shutter curtain can be lowered by forcibly releasing the brake via the emergency operation switch and wire even in the event of a power failure and when the capacity of the battery power supply of the control device (hazardous interlocking relay) is not available. it can.

In the manual closing device according to the present invention, the brake lever releasing means is moved using a wire, but after the brake lever releasing means is moved once, the wire is in a loose state. That is, one end of the wire connected to the emergency operation switch is in the original position, and the other end of the wire connected to the brake lever release means is moved to one end side (the brake release state is maintained, the brake lever Since the release means remains in the moved position), the wire is in a loose state. Therefore, when the control device (hazard prevention interlock repeater) is electrically effective, a return signal is transmitted from the control device (hazard prevention interlock repeater) that received the obstacle detection signal to the automatic closing device, and the brake is activated. Return.

Further, by adopting the automatic closing device according to claim 2, the following effects are further obtained. By adopting an automatic closing device that releases the brake and restores the brake by instantaneous energization instead of the energization operation type, it is possible to significantly reduce the power consumption during operation, and this is a battery that has been a problem in the past It is possible to avoid the inoperability of the automatic closing device due to wear-out "does not function as a specific fire prevention equipment". In the conventional automatic closing device, when the battery is deteriorated, when the battery is continuously energized, the battery voltage drop is large. However, the automatic closing device according to the present invention reduces the power consumption during operation by operating instantaneously. And battery consumption is low. Since it is an instantaneous operation system that operates by instantaneous energization, it is also possible to operate the automatic closing device with a fire signal (DC24V) from an automatic fire alarm facility (disaster prevention panel) at the time of power failure and battery consumption. In one specific aspect, the control device (hazard prevention interlock repeater) that has received the fire signal determines whether or not a power failure has occurred and the battery has been consumed. Supply directly to the automatic closing device via the control device.

A disaster prevention panel 10 and a manual operation unit 11 to be described later are disposed on the walls 9 and 9 positioned on the sides of the guide rails 3 and 3. The opening / closing machine 5 (shutter control panel 5a), limit switch 6, smoke detector 7, automatic closing device 8, disaster prevention panel 10 and manual operation unit 11 are also controlled by a control device (hazard prevention interlock) disposed on the ceiling 4 The control device 12 is responsible for various opening / closing controls of the shutter device. The control device 12 controls the opening / closing device 5 through the shutter control panel 5a by the operation from the manual operation unit 11, and moves the shutter curtain 2 up and down. Further, in the event of a fire, the control device 12 releases the brake of the switch 5 via the automatic closing device 8 based on the signals from the smoke detector 7 and the disaster prevention panel 10 and lowers the shutter curtain 2 by its own weight. When the fire is prevented from spreading and an obstacle is detected while the shutter curtain 2 is descending, the descent of the shutter curtain 2 is stopped by wired obstacle detection as described below.

The seat plate 2a provided at the lowermost end of the shutter curtain 2 has a seat plate switch 2b, and when there is an obstacle below the shutter curtain 2 during the lowering operation, this is connected to the seat plate switch 2b. It detects by contact, transmits an obstacle detection signal to the control device 12 through the signal line A, and stops the descent of the shutter curtain 2 via the shutter control panel. When the shutter curtain 2 is falling under its own weight, the released brake returns based on the obstacle detection signal. After the obstacle is removed, the shutter curtain 2 starts to descend again. The signal line A connected to the seat plate switch 2b is wound around the cord reel 13 attached at the upper end of the opening while holding the urging force in the winding direction. The signal line A is wound around the cord reel 13 or is fed out in accordance with the up-and-down driving.

The control device 12 has a built-in battery power supply 14 to ensure control operation during a power failure, in addition to the commercial power source during normal operation. However, the shutter curtain 2 can be lowered by the battery power source 14 via the automatic closing device 8 based on the fire detection signal.

Yes. The voltage state of the battery power supply 14 is displayed on the light emitting LED 22. A transparent window 17a is formed in the keyed opening / closing door 17 at a position corresponding to the light emitting LED 22, so that the light emission state of the light emitting LED 22 can be confirmed through the transparent window 17a even when the keyed opening / closing door 17 is closed. It has become. In this way, the manual operation unit 11 has a function as a battery checker.

[B] Automatic closing device [B-1] Configuration of automatic closing device The automatic closing device 8 will be described. In the opening / closing control of the shutter device, when the control device (danger prevention interlocking repeater) 12 receives a fire signal from the disaster prevention panel 10, the control device 12 enters the automatic closing mode and is automatically closed by energization from the control device 12. The device 8 is actuated to release the brake part of the switch 5 and the shutter 2 is lowered to partition the fire prevention area. Immediately after the brake is released, power to the motor is cut off. The automatic closing device 8 according to the present invention is characterized in that the brake release state of the opening / closing machine 5 is maintained in a state where no electricity is applied even after the energization of the motor of the automatic closing device 8 is cut off. When an obstacle comes into contact with the seat plate 2 at the lower end of the shutter curtain 2 that descends its own weight, an obstacle detection signal is transmitted from the seat plate switch 2a to the control device 12, and the control device 12 that has received the obstacle detection signal. The brake of the opening / closing machine 5 is reset by a command from

As shown in FIG. 3, the automatic closing device 8 includes a box-shaped casing 8a and mechanical elements provided in the casing 8a. The mechanical elements include a DC worm geared motor 80, a non-excitation electromagnetic brake 81, and the like. , A pinion 82 and a rack 83, a brake lever release body (brake release means) 84, a microswitch (means for interrupting energization of the motor) 86, and a return spring (return means) 87. Reference numeral 85 denotes an opening / closing machine brake lever mounted on the opening / closing machine 5 side.

The worm geared motor 80 includes a motor unit 800 and a worm gear unit 801. The shaft of the motor unit 800 and the shaft of the worm gear unit 801 are orthogonal to each other, and the extended portion of the shaft of the worm gear unit 801 constitutes the output shaft 80 a of the motor 80. The worm geared motor 80 is a worm geared motor having a self-locking function. It is known that a worm gear having a predetermined reduction ratio has a self-locking function, and the reverse rotation from the output shaft can be prevented by the self-locking function of the worm gear.

The electromagnetic brake 81 includes a main body 810 including an electromagnetic coil and a compression spring (not shown), a fixing plate 811, an armature 812, and a rotor 813. The output shaft 80a of the motor 80 is connected to the rotor 813 so as to be integrally rotatable. The non-excitation electromagnetic brake itself is known, and when the non-excitation state is not energized, the armature 812 is pressed against the rotor 813 by the spring force of the compression spring, and the rotor 812 is sandwiched between the armature 812 and the fixed plate. When the energized state is energized, the armature 812 is attracted and pulled away from the rotor 813 to release the brake operation. When the power is not supplied, the main body 810 and the rotor 813 are locked, and the output shaft 80a, the rotor 813, and the main body 810 (and the fixed plate 811 and the armature 812) rotate as the motor 80 rotates. When energized, the locked state is released, and the main body 810 (and the fixed plate 811 and the armature 812) can rotate independently of the rotor 813 and the output shaft 80a.

A pinion 82 is fixed to the main body 810, and the pinion 82 is rotated by the rotation of the main body 810. As the pinion 82 rotates, the rack 83 meshing with the pinion 82 moves straight in the brake releasing direction. A brake lever release body 84 is fixed to the rack 83, and the brake lever release body 84 starts to push the brake lever 85 as the rack 83 moves. When the brake lever releaser 84 moves by a predetermined amount, the contact piece 840 formed integrally with the brake lever releaser 84 comes into contact with the microswitch 86, the microswitch 86 is turned on, and the power supply to the motor 80 is cut off. .

In a state where the power supply to the motor 80 of the automatic closing device 8 is cut off, the spring force of the return spring 87 is overcome by the self-locking function of the worm geared motor 80 and the holding force of the non-excitation electromagnetic brake 81, The rotation of the main body 810 of the excitation electromagnetic brake 81 is restricted. In this state, when the non-excited electromagnetic brake 81 is energized from the control device 12 that has received the obstacle detection signal, the lock between the main body 810 and the rotor 813 is released, and the main body 810 can be rotated and compressed. The rack 83 and the brake lever release body 84 are restored by the elastic force of the restored spring 87, the opening / closing machine brake lever 85 is restored by the restoration spring 85a, and the brake of the opening / closing machine 5 is restored. A brake lever release body 84 as a brake release means is reciprocally movable between a direction of releasing the brake and a direction of returning the brake by the rack 83.

FIG. 4 shows the control circuit of the automatic closing device. A start signal (DC24V) is energized (brake release signal) from the control device (hazard prevention interlocking repeater) 12 that has received the fire detection signal to the worm geared motor 80 of the automatic closing device 8, and the motor 80 rotates. As the motor 80 rotates, the brake lever release body 84 moves in the brake release direction to release the brake of the switch 5, and the brake lever release body 84 moves a predetermined amount to turn on the micro switch 86. Thus, the energization of 24V DC is cut off and the motor 80 is stopped. When the micro switch 86 is turned on, the micro switch 86A is closed at the same time, a closed circuit is formed by the terminal SDC and the terminal DA1, and a signal indicating that the shutter curtain 2 is falling under its own weight is transmitted to the control device 12. . When receiving such a signal, the control device 12 stops supplying the activation signal (DC 24 V) to the automatic closing device 8. In addition, you may perform the stop of supply of the starting signal (DC24V) from the control apparatus 12 to the automatic closing apparatus 8 with a timer, without using a microswitch.

When the obstacle detection signal is transmitted from the seat plate detection switch to the control device (danger prevention interlocking repeater) 12, the control device 12 that has received the obstacle detection signal sends a non-excitation electromagnetic brake 81 to the non-excitation electromagnetic brake 81 for a predetermined time, for example, The DC 24V is energized (brake return signal) for about 0.5 seconds to 1 second, and the main body 810 becomes rotatable, and the brake lever release body 84 moves by the spring force of the return spring 87. 5 brake is restored. At the same time, the micro switch 86 is restored, and the micro switch 86A is opened at the same time, and the control device 12 detects that the shutter curtain 2 is not descending its own weight. When the obstacle is removed, the control device 12 detects that the obstacle has been removed via the seat plate switch 2a. After detecting that the obstacle has been removed, a starting signal (DC 24 V) is energized from the control device 12 to the automatic closing device 8 after a predetermined time, for example, 10 to 20 seconds. By energizing the motor 80, the brake of the switch 5 is released as described above, and the shutter curtain resumes its own weight drop.

[B-2] Operation of the automatic closing device The operation of the automatic closing device will be described.
[B-2-1] Automatic Closing Device Release Operation (1) When the activation signal (DC24V) from the control device (danger prevention interlocking relay) 12 is supplied to the DC worm geared motor 80, the output shaft 80a is illustrated. In the example, it starts to rotate counterclockwise. At the same time, the main body 810 of the non-excitation electromagnetic brake 81 also rotates, and the pinion 82 fixed to the main body 810 rotates counterclockwise.
(2) Due to the rotation of the pinion 82, the rack 83 engaged with the pinion 82 starts to move in the brake releasing direction, and the brake lever release body 84 connected to the rack 83 starts to push the opening / closing machine brake lever 85. Thereby, the brake of the opening / closing machine 5 is released.
(3) After releasing the opening / closing brake lever 85 by operating the brake lever release body 84, the micro switch 86 is turned on by the contact piece 840 of the brake lever release body 84, the power supply to the motor 80 is cut off, and the motor 80 stops. To do.
(4) After stopping, with the self-locking function of the DC worm geared motor 80 and the holding force of the non-excitation electromagnetic brake 81 when de-energized, the brake released state is maintained without consuming electric power.
(5) When the micro switch 86 is turned on, the micro switch 86A is closed, and the control device 12 detects that the shutter curtain 2 is descending its own weight, and generates a start signal (DC24V) to the automatic closing device 8. Stop supplying.

[B-2-2] Returning operation of the automatic closing device (1) When DC 24V is applied to the non-excited electromagnetic brake 81 from the control device (danger prevention interlocking relay) 12 based on the obstacle detection signal, The excitation type electromagnetic brake 81 is released, and the main body 810 is rotatable.
(2) The rack 83 is instantaneously returned to the original position by the force of the return spring 87 that has been compressed when the brake is released.
(3) The brake lever release body 84 held is also returned to the original position, and the opening / closing machine brake lever 85 is also returned by the return spring 85a.
(4) At this time, the pinion 82 meshing with the rack 83 and the main body 810 of the non-excitation electromagnetic brake 81 fixed to the pinion 82 also rotate clockwise to return to the original position.
(5) With the movement of the rack 83, the brake lever release body 84 moves, the micro switch 86 returns, the micro switch 86A is opened, and the control device 12 detects that the shutter curtain 2 is not descending its own weight.
(6) When the obstacle is removed, the control device 12 detects that the obstacle has been removed via the seat plate switch 2a. After detecting that the obstacle has been removed, a starting signal (DC 24 V) is energized from the control device 12 to the automatic closing device 8 after a predetermined time, for example, 10 to 20 seconds. By energizing the motor 80, the brake of the switch 5 is released as described above, and the shutter curtain resumes its own weight drop.

As described above, the automatic closing device according to the present invention operates by instantaneous energization to release the brake of the switch, and returns the released brake by instantaneous energization. By using an automatic closing device that can be activated and restored by instantaneous energization, it is possible to greatly reduce the power consumption during operation, and the conventional malfunction of the automatic closing device due to battery consumption It is possible to avoid the danger of “not functioning as a fire prevention facility”. Since it is an instantaneous operation system that operates by instantaneous energization, it is also possible to operate the automatic closing device with a fire signal (DC24V) from the automatic fire alarm facility at the time of power failure and battery consumption.

[C] Manual closing device As described above, the manual operation unit 11 is provided with an emergency operation switch. The emergency operation switch constitutes a manual closing device, and the shutter curtain 2 can be lowered by pushing the emergency operation switch. The emergency operation switch is used when it is desired to immediately lower the shutter curtain 2 prior to the control operation by the disaster prevention signal input. Based on FIG. 3, FIG. 5, the preferable aspect of the manual closure using an emergency operation switch is demonstrated.

As shown in FIG. 5, the manual closing device 23 is connected to the automatic closing device 8 through a wire 24, and is directly connected to the automatic closing device 8 without using the control device 12 (harm prevention interlocking relay). Are mechanically actuated using a wire 24.

FIG. 6 shows a manual closing device 23 with an emergency activation switch. Here, a manual closing device having only an emergency operation switch is shown, but the manual closing device may be configured integrally with other operation switches like the manual operation unit 11 described above. The manual closing device 23 includes a switch box 25, an emergency operation switch 26 provided in the switch box 25, and a plastic cover 27 provided corresponding to the emergency operation switch 26 on the front surface of the switch box 25.

Further, the emergency operation switch 26 includes a first movable body 260 that moves backward by a pressing operation, a second movable body 261 that moves downward as the first movable body 260 moves rearward, and a second movable body 261. And a spring 262 provided below. One end of the wire 24 is connected to the upper portion of the second movable body 261. A guide edge 260A is formed on the first movable body 260, and a guide pin 261A is formed on the second movable body 261. The guide edge 260A and the guide pin 261A are always in contact with each other. The guide edge 260A includes a horizontal upper edge located on the rear side of the switch box 25 and an inclined edge extending obliquely downward from the front end of the upper edge toward the front surface of the switch box 25. The guide pin 261A of the second movable body 261 is positioned at the upper end edge of the guide edge 260A of the first movable body 260, and when the first movable body 260 is pushed rearward of the switch box 25, the guide pin 261A is guided. The second movable body 261 moves downward by being guided by the inclined edge of the edge 260A and moving downward. As the second movable body 261 moves downward, the wire 24 connected to the upper portion of the second movable body 261 is pulled downward.

The other end of the wire 24, one end of which is connected to the emergency operation switch 26, extends through the casing 8 a of the automatic closing device 8 and is connected to a brake lever release body 84, for example, a contact piece 840. Yes. Further, between the switch box 25 of the manual closing device 23 and the casing 8a of the automatic closing device 8, the wire 24 extends in the sleeve 24A. As shown in the upper diagram of FIG. 3, the other end of the wire 24 is connected to the contact piece 840. Accordingly, when the second movable body 261 moves downward by the pressing operation of the first movable body 260 of the emergency operation switch 26, the wire 24 also moves downward (in a direction away from the other end), and is braked via the wire 24. The release body 84 is pulled in the direction of releasing the brake, and the brake is released.

On the other hand, in the manual closing device 23, when the pressing operation of the first movable body 260 is released, the second movable body 261 is moved upward by the spring force of the spring 262, and the second movable body 261 is moved upward to the original position. The first movable body 260 also returns to the original position. As the second movable body 261 moves up, the position of one end of the wire 24 connected to the second movable body 261 also moves up and returns to the original position, and pulls downward on the wire 24. The power is released. The wire 24 becomes loose from the tension state. Here, as described above, the automatic closing device 8 according to the present invention includes means for holding the brake released state in a non-energized state after the energization of the electric motor 80 is interrupted, and therefore moves the brake lever release body 84. The brake released state is maintained even when the wire 24 is loosened. Therefore, the shutter curtain 2 can be lowered to close the opening even when there is no capacity of the battery power source installed in the control device 12 (harmful prevention interlocking repeater) at the time of a power failure. Further, the position of the other end of the wire 24 remains in a state of moving to one end side, and the wire 24 is in a loose state after the position of the one end of the wire 24 is returned to the original position. Moreover, since the automatic closing device 8 maintains the brake release posture once the emergency operation switch 26 of the manual operation device 23 is pressed, it is not necessary to continuously press the emergency operation switch 26.

When the shutter curtain 2 is lowered using the manual closing device 23, if the shutter curtain 2 hits an obstacle, an obstacle detection signal is transmitted from the seat plate detection switch to the control device 12 (a hazard-relay interlocking relay). . At this time, if the control device 12 (hazard prevention interlocking relay) has a power input or has a battery power capacity, the non-excited electromagnetic brake 81 is energized, and the electromagnetic brake 81 The main body 810 becomes rotatable, and the spring force of the return spring 87 acts to move the brake lever release body 84 in the brake return direction. At this time, since the wire 24 is in a loose state as described above, the wire 24 does not hinder the movement of the brake lever release body 84, the brake lever release body 84 moves, and the brake of the switch 5 is restored.

Thus, by employing the automatic closing device 8 including the manual closing device 23, the shutter curtain 2 can be lowered prior to the control operation by the disaster prevention signal input. When the control device 12 (hazard prevention interlock repeater) has a power input or has a capacity of battery power, the control device 12 (hazard prevention) when the seat plate detection switch receives the obstacle detection signal. The return signal is transmitted from the interlocking repeater) to the automatic closing device 8, and the brake returns. Furthermore, the brake is forcibly released via the emergency operation switch 26 and the wire 24 of the manual closing device 23 even in the case of a power failure and when the capacity of the battery power of the control device 12 (hazard prevention interlocking relay) is not available. Thus, the shutter curtain 2 can be lowered.

The present invention can be used for a shutter device including an automatic closing device and a manual closing device.
