Description

  The present invention relates to an illumination system including a human sensor that detects heat rays.

  Conventionally, when a person moves in a dark room, it is necessary to select a lighting apparatus to be lit from a plurality of lighting apparatuses installed indoors, and to switch on the selected lighting apparatus. Thereafter, when a person moves to a place where the light of the lit lighting device does not reach, it is necessary to select a lighting device to be newly lit and switch on the lighting device. At this time, a person sometimes cannot find a switch of a lighting fixture immediately. In addition, people sometimes fell or whispered while searching for a switch in a dark room.

  Therefore, for example, there is known an illumination control system that includes a lighting fixture and a human detection unit, and that immediately turns on the lighting fixture when the human detection unit detects a person (see, for example, Patent Document 1). In addition, the system includes a server or a master unit that controls the entire system, a plurality of human detection sensors, and a lighting device. When a specific human sensor detects a person, a radio signal is transmitted, and the radio signal is transmitted. An illumination system that immediately turns on a luminaire is known (see, for example, Patent Document 2). Moreover, the structure by which the some lighting fixture with which a lighting system is provided, and the human sensitive sensor are connected with the wire communication is known (for example, refer patent document 3). Furthermore, the lighting system includes lighting fixtures and human sensors divided into a plurality of groups, and the lighting system belonging to a specific group is immediately turned on when a predetermined human sensor detects a person. It is known (see, for example, Patent Document 4).

However, in the techniques disclosed in Patent Documents 1 to 4, since the lighting device is turned on as soon as the human detection means or the human detection system detects a person, it is a lighting device that does not need to be turned on depending on the human operation pattern. However, since it is lit, an increase in electric cost has been a problem. Further, even when a person does not want to turn on the lighting fixture, the lighting fixture is always turned on whenever the person moves in the lighting system, and the troublesomeness caused by turning on the unnecessary lighting fixture has been a problem. Further, in the technique disclosed in Patent Document 2, there is a problem that a system configuration becomes complicated because a server, a parent device, and the like that control the entire system are necessary. Furthermore, in the technique shown in Patent Document 3, since a plurality of lighting fixtures and human sensors are connected by wire, there is a problem that it takes time to perform wiring work when installing the lighting system.
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 8-273838 JP 2002-289370 A JP-A-10-162969 JP-A-10-162963

  The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problem. Even when the human sensor detects a person, the lighting apparatus is not immediately turned on, and the necessary lighting apparatus is used according to the operation of the person. It aims at providing the lighting system which can light only.

  In order to achieve the above object, the invention according to claim 1 is a human sensor that detects a heat ray radiated from an object, and a plurality of lighting sensors that are controlled to be turned on according to a detection signal from the human sensor and can communicate with each other. In a lighting system including a lighting fixture, the controller includes a control unit that counts the number of times a detection signal is output from the human sensor within a predetermined time and controls lighting of the lighting fixture according to the count. A storage unit that stores the number of times and the lighting fixture in association with each other, and when the detection signal is received, the lighting fixture is turned on for a predetermined time, and when the output count is equal to or greater than the output count stored in the storage portion, A signal is transmitted to the luminaire stored in association, and the luminaire is lit for a predetermined time.

  According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the lighting system of the first aspect, the lighting fixtures are installed indoors and outdoors, and at least one lighting fixture installed indoors is output from the human sensor within a predetermined time. When a predetermined number of detection signals are received, a signal for turning on a lighting device installed outdoors is transmitted, and at least one lighting device installed outdoors receives a detection signal output from a human sensor within a predetermined time. When the predetermined number of times has been reached, a signal for turning on the luminaire installed indoors is transmitted.

  According to the first aspect of the present invention, when the detection signal is received, the lighting device is turned on for a predetermined time, and when the number of outputs is equal to or greater than the predetermined number, the signal is transmitted to the lighting device associated in advance. Thereby, it is not necessary to provide a server and a parent device for controlling the entire system, and the lighting system can be easily constructed, so that the construction cost can be kept low. Each lighting device is lit in response to the human sensor detecting a person. Furthermore, each lighting fixture transmits a signal to another lighting fixture in accordance with the number of times the detection signal is output, and turns on the lighting fixture that has transmitted the signal for a predetermined time. Thereby, since the lighting fixture is automatically turned on in accordance with the movement of the person, it is not necessary for the person to press the switch of the lighting fixture in the dark, and it is possible to avoid a fall or a whisper.

  According to the invention of claim 2, the lighting fixture installed indoors turns on the predetermined lighting fixture installed outdoors when the detection signal output from the human sensor within a predetermined time reaches a predetermined number of times. Similarly, a lighting fixture installed outdoors turns on a predetermined lighting fixture installed indoors when a detection signal output from the human sensor within a predetermined time reaches a predetermined number of times. As a result, the outdoor lighting fixtures are installed indoors only when people enter the indoors from the outdoors, and the outdoor lighting fixtures are installed indoors only when people enter the indoors from the outdoors. In addition, a predetermined lighting device can be turned on. Thereby, since each lighting fixture lights according to a person's operation | movement, it becomes possible to save an electricity bill.

  Hereinafter, an illumination system according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a configuration of a lighting system 1 according to the present embodiment. The lighting system 1 includes lighting fixtures 3a to 3c provided with lamps 2a to 2c that are lit to illuminate the surroundings brightly. The luminaire 3a includes a human sensor 5a that outputs a detection signal 4a when receiving infrared rays emitted by a person or a small animal, and a control unit that lights the lamp 2a for a predetermined time in response to receiving the detection signal 4a. 6a and a radio signal transmitting / receiving unit 8a that transmits the detection signal 4a as a radio signal 7a. The control unit 6a associates and stores the reference number of times compared with the number of outputs of the detection signal 4a output by the human sensor 5a within a predetermined time, and the lighting fixture 3b or the lighting fixture 3c. Is provided. The radio signal transmission / reception unit 8a receives the radio signal 7b or the radio signal 7c transmitted by the radio signal transmission / reception unit 8b or the radio signal transmission / reception unit 8c provided in the lighting fixture 3b or the lighting fixture 3c. When the wireless signal transmitting / receiving unit 8a receives the wireless signal 7b or the wireless signal 7c, the control unit 6a turns on the lamp 2a for a predetermined time. Here, the luminaire 3b and the luminaire 3c have the same configuration as the luminaire 3a, the luminaire 3a is installed outdoors and in the vicinity of the entrance door 12, and the luminaire 3b is a housing or the like. It is assumed that the lighting fixture 3c is installed near the entrance door 12 of the indoor 11 and the hallway of the indoor 11 or the like.

  The memory | storage part 9a hold | maintains the table 10a with which the reference frequency and the lighting fixture 3b were linked | related by the user. The table 10a holds a “reference count” item to be compared with the output count, and a “transmission destination” item for storing the lighting fixture 3b or the lighting fixture 3c as a counterpart to which the radio signal transmitting / receiving unit 8a transmits the radio signal 7a. To do. Upon receiving the detection signal 4a from the human sensor 5a, the controller 6a immediately turns on the lamp 2a for a predetermined time, and counts the number of times the human sensor 5a outputs the detection signal 4a within a predetermined time. . Further, the control unit 6a refers to the table 10a to determine whether or not the counted number of outputs is larger than the number held in the “reference number” item of the table 10a. When the number of outputs counted by the control unit 6a is larger than the number held in the “reference number” item, the control unit 6a holds the radio signal 7a in the “transmission destination” item in the radio signal transmission / reception unit 8a. It is transmitted toward the luminaire 3.

  Here, when the detection signal 4a is output six times by the human sensor 5a, the control unit 6a refers to the table 10a and causes the wireless signal transmission / reception unit 8a to transmit the wireless signal 7a toward the lighting fixture 3b. It becomes. The wireless signal transmission / reception unit 8a transmits the wireless signal 7a to the lighting fixture 3b based on, for example, a unique number or symbol assigned to the lighting fixture 3b or an IP address. The lighting fixture 3b lights the lamp 2b for a predetermined time in response to the radio signal transmission / reception unit 8b receiving the radio signal 7a transmitted by the radio signal transmission / reception unit 8a provided in the lighting fixture 3a. Thereby, the lighting system 1 turns on the lamp 2b provided in the lighting fixture 3b according to the number of outputs of the detection signal 4a output within a predetermined time by the human sensor 5a provided in the lighting fixture 3a. Can do.

  Next, operation | movement of the lighting fixture 3b is demonstrated. FIG. 2 shows an operation flow of the lighting fixture 3b according to the present embodiment. When the main power supply of the lighting system 1 is turned on, the human sensor 5b provided in the lighting fixture 3b outputs a detection signal 4b to the control unit 6b when detecting infrared rays irradiated by an object such as a person or a small animal (S1). ). In step S1, when the human sensor 5b does not detect infrared rays (No in S1), the lighting fixture 3b executes the process of step S5. On the other hand, when the human sensor 5b detects infrared rays and outputs the detection signal 4b to the control unit 6b (Yes in S1), the control unit 6b lights the lamp 2b for a predetermined time (S2). Thereby, even if the person does not switch on the lamp 2b existing nearby, the lamp 2b is lit for a predetermined time, so that it is possible to avoid falling or hitting in the dark. In addition, since the lit lamp 2b is turned off by the control unit 6b after a predetermined time has elapsed, a person will not forget to turn off the lamp 2b, so that a useless electricity bill can be saved.

  When the controller 2b turns on the lamp 2b, the controller 6b counts the number of times the human sensor 5b outputs the detection signal 4b within a predetermined time as the number of outputs (S3). Next, the control unit 6b refers to the “reference number” item in the table 10b stored in the storage unit 9b, and compares the number of output times with the reference number (S4). Here, if the number of times of output is 3, the control unit 6b refers to the table 10b shown in FIG. 1, and is the number of times of output equal to or greater than the number held in the “reference number” item of the table 10b? Judge whether or not. Here, the table 10b holds 5 times and 1 time as the reference number in the “reference number” item. The controller 6b determines that the number of outputs is greater than the reference number “1” and less than the reference number “5” because the number of outputs is three. When the output count is equal to or greater than the reference count (Yes in S4), the control unit 6b acquires information on the transmission destination from the “transmission destination” item associated with the reference count smaller than the output count from the table 10b (S5). . Here, the control unit 6b acquires 3c from the “transmission destination” item associated with the reference count “1” from the table 10b. Next, the control unit 6b causes the wireless signal transmission / reception unit 8b to transmit the wireless signal 7b to the luminaire 3c that is the transmission destination acquired in step S5 (S6). Here, the human sensor 5b outputs the detection signal 4b about 1 to 3 times within a predetermined time when a person, a small animal, or the like passes in the vicinity of the lighting fixture 3b. The human sensor 5b outputs the detection signal 4b five times or more within a predetermined time because the person stays in the vicinity of the entrance door 12 for a relatively long time when the person tries to open the entrance door 12. Thereby, the radio signal transmitter / receiver 7b can transmit the radio signal 7b to the predetermined lighting fixture 3b or the lighting fixture 3c in accordance with a human action.

  On the other hand, when the output count is smaller than all the counts stored in the “reference count” item of the table 10b in step S4 (No in S4), the luminaire 3b executes the process of step S7. In step S7, when the radio signal transmitting / receiving unit 8b receives the radio signal 7a or the radio signal 7c (Yes in S7), the control unit 6b lights the lamp 2b for a predetermined time (S8). On the other hand, when the wireless signal transmitting / receiving unit 8b does not receive the wireless signal 7a and the wireless signal 7c in step S7 (No in S7), the lighting fixture 3b proceeds to the process of step S9. The lighting fixture 3b repeats the processing from step S1 to step S9 until the main power supply of the lighting system 1 is turned off (No in S9). On the other hand, when the main power of the lighting system 1 is turned off in step S9 (Yes in S9), the lighting fixture 3b ends its operation. The luminaire 3b may be configured to transmit the radio signal 7b to all the luminaires 3a and the luminaires 3c in response to the human sensor 5b included in the luminaire 3b outputting the detection signal 4b. Absent. At this time, the luminaire 3a or the luminaire 3c that has received the wireless signal 7b stores information for lighting the lamp 2a or the lamp 2c, for example, by receiving the wireless signal 7b in the storage unit 9a or the storage unit 9c. It shall be. At this time, when the luminaire 3a or the luminaire 3c receives the wireless signal 7b, the luminaire 3a or the luminaire 3c determines whether to turn on the lamp 2a or the lamp 2c by referring to the storage unit 9a or the storage unit 9c, and based on the determination result. Thus, the lamp 2a or the lamp 2c is turned on.
