以下、本発明の実施の形態を図面に基づいて説明する。
［形態１］
図１において、１Ａ，１Ｂは、リフト装置の一例である車両整備用リフトで、車両が乗り込むドライブオンプレートを油圧シリンダで昇降させる周知の構成を有し、図２に示すように、油圧回路の電磁弁やポンプ等の駆動を制御する駆動制御部２Ａ（２Ｂ）を備えている。
なお、図１，２では、車両整備用リフト１Ａ，１Ｂと夫々に対応するリモコンシステムについて示しているが、リモコンシステムはどちらも同じ構成を有するため、特に区別する必要がある場合を除き、主に車両整備用リフト１Ａについて以下説明を行う。 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
[Form 1]
In FIG. 1, 1A and 1B are vehicle maintenance lifts which are examples of a lift device, and have a well-known configuration in which a drive-on plate on which a vehicle rides is lifted and lowered by a hydraulic cylinder. As shown in FIG. A drive control unit 2A (2B) that controls driving of an electromagnetic valve, a pump, and the like is provided.
1 and 2 show the remote control systems corresponding to the vehicle maintenance lifts 1A and 1B, respectively. However, since the remote control systems have the same configuration, the main control systems are mainly used unless otherwise distinguished. The vehicle maintenance lift 1A will be described below.

車両整備用リフト１Ａの近傍には、リモコンを一時置きするリモコン置き場となるリモコン収納ボックス４Ａが設けられている。リモコン収納ボックス４Ａには、車両整備用リフト１Ａの駆動制御部２Ａに接続されて駆動制御部２Ａへ動作指令を出力するリフト制御用受信部３Ａと、後述するリモコン１０Ａと非接触で無線通信を行う照合用リーダ５Ａと、照合確認用のＬＥＤ６Ａとが設けられている。照合用リーダ５Ａは、図示しないアンテナやマイコンを備え、半径約５０ｃｍの検知エリアＳ内での無線通信により、マイコンのメモリに記録されたＩＤ情報（照合情報）と、リモコンから送信されたＩＤ情報との照合を行うものである。車両整備用リフト１Ａの駆動制御部２Ａは、照合用リーダ５Ａとも接続されて、照合用リーダ５Ａによって認証されたリモコンからの動作指令のみを受け付けるようになっている。 In the vicinity of the vehicle maintenance lift 1A, a remote control storage box 4A serving as a remote control place for temporarily placing the remote control is provided. The remote control storage box 4A is connected to the drive control unit 2A of the vehicle maintenance lift 1A and outputs the operation command to the drive control unit 2A. The remote control storage box 4A performs wireless communication without contact with the remote control 10A described later. A collation reader 5A to perform and a collation confirmation LED 6A are provided. The verification reader 5A includes an antenna and a microcomputer (not shown), and ID information (verification information) recorded in the memory of the microcomputer and ID information transmitted from the remote controller by wireless communication in the detection area S having a radius of about 50 cm. Is to be verified. The drive control unit 2A of the vehicle maintenance lift 1A is also connected to the verification reader 5A so as to accept only an operation command from the remote controller authenticated by the verification reader 5A.

そして、１０Ａはリモコンで、電源ＯＮ用の「入」ボタン１１Ａと、電源ＯＦＦ用の「切」ボタン１２Ａと、車両整備用リフト１Ａの昇降等の通常操作に使用する操作ボタン１３Ａ，１３Ａ・・とを夫々備える一方、リフト制御用受信部３Ａと無線通信するリフト制御用送信部１４Ａと、照合用リーダ部５Ａと無線通信する照合用タグ部１５Ａとを備えている。この照合用タグ部１５Ａは、予め所定のＩＤ情報（ここではリモコンの固有番号）を記録したＩＣチップに、振動センサ１６Ａとアンテナとを備えた構成で、後述するようにリモコン収納ボックス４Ａから取り出す等して振動センサ１６Ａが振動を検知すると、０．５秒間隔でＩＤ情報を発信するものである。 Reference numeral 10A denotes a remote controller, which is an "on" button 11A for turning on the power, an "off" button 12A for turning off the power, and operation buttons 13A, 13A,... Used for normal operations such as raising and lowering the vehicle maintenance lift 1A. And a lift control transmitter 14A that communicates wirelessly with the lift control receiver 3A, and a collation tag unit 15A that communicates wirelessly with the collation reader unit 5A. The verification tag unit 15A is configured to include a vibration sensor 16A and an antenna on an IC chip in which predetermined ID information (herein, a remote controller's unique number) is recorded in advance, and is taken out from the remote control storage box 4A as described later. For example, when the vibration sensor 16A detects vibration, ID information is transmitted at intervals of 0.5 seconds.

以上の如く構成された車両整備用リフト１Ａのリモコンシステムの動作を、図３のフローチャートに従って説明する。
まずＳ１では、リモコン１０Ａの認証がされているか否かが判別される。すなわち、リモコン収納ボックス４Ａの照合用リーダ５Ａと照合用タグ部１５Ａとの間でのＩＤ情報の照合がされているか否かの確認で、ここで認証がされていれば、次のＳ２で、リモコン１０Ａが電源投入により操作可能となっているか否かが判別される。ここで操作可能であれば、Ｓ３で通常のリフト操作が可能となる。また、リモコン１０Ａが操作可能でない場合は、Ｓ４で「入」ボタン１１Ａを押し操作することで、操作用ソフトが立ち上がり、Ｓ５で操作可能状態となる。 The operation of the remote control system for the vehicle maintenance lift 1A configured as described above will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
First, in S1, it is determined whether or not the remote controller 10A is authenticated. That is, it is confirmed whether or not the ID information is collated between the collation reader 5A and the collation tag unit 15A of the remote control storage box 4A. It is determined whether or not the remote controller 10A can be operated by turning on the power. If it can be operated here, a normal lift operation can be performed in S3. If the remote controller 10A is not operable, the operation software is launched by pressing the “ON” button 11A in S4, and the operation is enabled in S5.

一方、Ｓ１の判別でリモコンの認証が行われていない場合は、リモコン収納ボックス４Ａからリモコン１０Ａが取り出されるか、或いは周辺から持ち込まれるかすると、Ｓ６で振動センサ１６Ａがこれを検知することで、照合用タグ部１５ＡからＩＤ情報が発信される（Ｓ７）。このＩＤ情報をリモコン収納ボックス４Ａの照合用リーダ５Ａが受信すると（Ｓ８）、Ｓ９で、自己のＩＤ情報と受信したＩＤ情報とが一致するか否かを判別する。この照合が一致すると、Ｓ１０でＬＥＤ６Ａが点灯し、照合が一致しなければ、Ｓ１１でＬＥＤ６Ａが点滅する。
照合が一致すれば、Ｓ１２でリモコン１０Ａの「入」ボタン１１Ａが押されたか否かが判別される。ここで「入」ボタン１１Ａが押し操作されれば、Ｓ１３でリモコン１０Ａの操作用ソフトが立ち上がって認証が有効となり、操作可能な状態となってＳ３による通常のリフト操作が可能となる。 On the other hand, if the remote control is not authenticated in the determination of S1, if the remote control 10A is taken out from the remote control storage box 4A or brought in from the periphery, the vibration sensor 16A detects this in S6, ID information is transmitted from the verification tag portion 15A (S7). When the ID information is received by the verification reader 5A of the remote control storage box 4A (S8), it is determined in S9 whether or not the own ID information matches the received ID information. If this collation matches, the LED 6A is turned on in S10, and if the collation does not match, the LED 6A blinks in S11.
If the verification matches, it is determined in S12 whether or not the “ON” button 11A of the remote controller 10A has been pressed. If the “ON” button 11A is pressed here, the operation software of the remote controller 10A is activated in S13, the authentication becomes valid, the operation becomes possible, and the normal lift operation in S3 becomes possible.

そして、リフト操作が終了してＳ１４でリモコン１０Ａの「切」ボタン１２Ａが押されると、Ｓ１５で検知エリアＳ内での操作か否かが判別される。ここで検知エリアＳ内であれば、Ｓ１６でリモコン１０Ａの認証が無効となり、操作用ソフトが終了してリモコン１０Ａが操作不可状態となる。
また、Ｓ１４で「切」ボタン１２Ａが押し操作されなくても、Ｓ１７で、「入」ボタン１１Ａの押し操作からカウントされた第１タイマ（例えば数分〜数十分）のタイムアップが確認されると、Ｓ１８で操作用ソフトが終了してリモコン１０Ａが操作不可状態となる。但し、リモコン１０Ａの認証は有効のままである。なお、この処理は、検知エリアＳの外で「切」ボタン１２Ａが押された場合（Ｓ１５でＮＯ）の場合も同様に行われる。 When the lift operation is finished and the “OFF” button 12A of the remote controller 10A is pressed in S14, it is determined whether or not the operation is in the detection area S in S15. If it is in the detection area S, the authentication of the remote controller 10A is invalidated in S16, the operation software is terminated, and the remote controller 10A is disabled.
Even if the “OFF” button 12A is not pressed in S14, the time-up of the first timer (for example, several minutes to several tens of minutes) counted from the pressing operation of the “ON” button 11A is confirmed in S17. Then, in S18, the operation software is terminated and the remote controller 10A becomes inoperable. However, the authentication of the remote controller 10A remains valid. This process is similarly performed when the “OFF” button 12A is pressed outside the detection area S (NO in S15).

一方、リモコン１０Ａが操作不可状態のまま、Ｓ１９で、「入」ボタン１１Ａの押し操作からカウントされ、第１タイマよりも長く設定された第２タイマ（例えば１時間〜数時間）のタイムアップが確認されると、Ｓ１６でリモコン１０Ａの認証も無効となる。
よって、再びリモコン１０Ａを使用したい場合は、検知エリアＳ外でリモコン１０Ａの「入」ボタン１１Ａを押すと（Ｓ４）、Ｓ５でリモコン１０Ａの操作用ソフトが立ち上がり、操作可能状態に設定される。 On the other hand, while the remote controller 10A remains in an inoperable state, the time-up of the second timer (for example, one hour to several hours) set longer than the first timer is counted in S19 from the pressing operation of the “ON” button 11A. If confirmed, the authentication of the remote controller 10A is also invalidated in S16.
Therefore, when the user wants to use the remote controller 10A again, when the “ON” button 11A of the remote controller 10A is pressed outside the detection area S (S4), the operation software for the remote controller 10A starts up in S5 and is set in an operable state.

このように、上記形態１の車両整備用リフト１Ａのリモコンシステムでは、リモコン１０Ａに照合用タグ部１５Ａを設けて、ＩＤ情報を無線により発信可能とする一方、車両整備用リフト１Ａの近傍に、リモコン１０Ａを収納可能なリモコン収納ボックス４Ａを設け、そのリモコン収納ボックス４Ａに、駆動制御部２Ａと接続されてリモコン１０Ａから発信されるＩＤ情報を検知エリアＳ内で受信可能で、且つ受信したＩＤ情報を予め記録された照合情報と照合して両情報が一致した場合にリモコン１０Ａの認証を行う照合用リーダ５Ａを設けて、駆動制御部２Ａは、照合用リーダ５Ａで認証されたリモコン１０Ａによる動作指令のみを受け付けるようにしている。よって、車両整備用リフト１Ａ，１Ｂと対応したリモコン１０Ａ，１０Ｂを夫々誤操作なく使用可能となり、安全性に優れる。特に、リモコン１Ａ，１Ｂの認証に特別な操作が不要であるため、使い勝手が向上して操作性も良好となる。 As described above, in the remote control system for the vehicle maintenance lift 1A according to the first embodiment, the remote control 10A is provided with the verification tag portion 15A so that ID information can be transmitted wirelessly, while the vehicle maintenance lift 1A is in the vicinity of the vehicle maintenance lift 1A. A remote control storage box 4A capable of storing the remote control 10A is provided, and ID information transmitted from the remote control 10A connected to the drive control unit 2A can be received in the detection area S in the remote control storage box 4A, and the received ID A collation reader 5A is provided that authenticates the remote controller 10A when the information is collated with the pre-recorded collation information and the two information matches, and the drive control unit 2A is controlled by the remote controller 10A authenticated by the collation reader 5A. Only operation commands are accepted. Therefore, the remote controls 10A and 10B corresponding to the vehicle maintenance lifts 1A and 1B can be used without any erroneous operation, and the safety is excellent. In particular, since no special operation is required for authentication of the remote controllers 1A and 1B, usability is improved and operability is improved.

また、ここでは、検知エリアＳ内でリモコン１０Ａの電源ＯＦＦ操作（「切」ボタン１２Ａの押し操作）を行うことで照合用リーダ５Ａによる認証を無効とし（Ｓ１５，Ｓ１６の処理）、検知エリアＳ内でリモコン１０Ａの電源ＯＮ操作（「入」ボタン１１Ａの押し操作）を行うことで照合用リーダ５Ａによる認証を有効としている（Ｓ１２，Ｓ１３の処理）ため、リモコン１０Ａの認証には対応する車両整備用リフト１Ａ（１Ｂ）のリモコン収納ボックス４Ａ（４Ｂ）の近傍での電源ＯＮ／ＯＦＦ操作が必要となり、リモコン１０Ａ（１０Ｂ）の取り違えが効果的に防止される。
さらに、検知エリアＳ外ではリモコン１０Ａの電源ＯＮ／ＯＦＦ操作を行っても当該リモコン１０Ａの認証状態は変わらないようにしているので（Ｓ１５，Ｓ１８及びＳ４，Ｓ５の処理）、作業中にいちいちリモコン収納ボックス４Ａに近づいて電源ＯＮ／ＯＦＦ操作をする煩わしさがなく、作業性を損なうことがない。 Further, here, the power OFF operation of the remote controller 10A (pressing operation of the “OFF” button 12A) in the detection area S is performed to invalidate the verification by the verification reader 5A (processing of S15 and S16). The authentication by the verification reader 5A is validated by performing a power ON operation (pressing the “on” button 11A) of the remote control 10A in the vehicle (processing of S12 and S13), and therefore the vehicle corresponding to the authentication of the remote control 10A A power ON / OFF operation in the vicinity of the remote control storage box 4A (4B) of the maintenance lift 1A (1B) is required, and the remote control 10A (10B) is effectively prevented from being mixed.
Furthermore, since the authentication state of the remote controller 10A does not change even if the power ON / OFF operation of the remote controller 10A is performed outside the detection area S (the processing of S15, S18, S4, and S5), the remote controller is in each operation. There is no inconvenience of turning on / off the power by approaching the storage box 4A, and workability is not impaired.

なお、上記形態１では、リフト制御用受信部をリモコン収納ボックスに設けているが、車両整備用リフト自体に設けたり、他の場所に設けたりしてもよい。
また、振動センサをなくして、電源ＯＮ操作によってＩＤ情報を発信させて照合を取るようにしたり、検知エリアの内外での認証状態をブザーや合成音声等によってさらに明確に報知させるようにしたり等、適宜変更可能である。勿論第１、第２タイマの設定も適宜変更して差し支えない。 In the first embodiment, the lift control receiving unit is provided in the remote control storage box. However, the lift control receiving unit may be provided in the vehicle maintenance lift itself or in another place.
In addition, without the vibration sensor, ID information is transmitted by turning on the power and collation is performed, or the authentication status inside and outside the detection area is further clearly notified by a buzzer, synthesized voice, etc. It can be changed as appropriate. Of course, the settings of the first and second timers may be changed as appropriate.

［形態２］
次に、本発明の他の形態を説明する。但し、形態１と同じ構成部には同じ符号を付して重複する説明は省略する。
図４に示す車両整備用リフト１Ａ（１Ｂ）においては、リモコン１０Ａ（１０Ｂ）に登録ボタン１９Ａ（１９Ｂ）と登録の抹消ボタン２０Ａ（２０Ｂ）とが夫々設けられている。また、図５に示すように、ここでは照合用リーダやタグは使用されず、リモコン収納ボックス４Ａ（４Ｂ）には、駆動制御部２Ａ（２Ｂ）に接続され、マイコンやアンテナ等を備える送受信部１７Ａ（１７Ｂ）が設けられる一方、リモコン１０Ａ（１０Ｂ）にも夫々マイコンやアンテナ等を備えた送受信部１８Ａ（１８Ｂ）が設けられて、送受信部１７Ａ（１７Ｂ），１８Ａ（１８Ｂ）間での無線通信が可能となっている。 [Form 2]
Next, another embodiment of the present invention will be described. However, the same components as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals and redundant description is omitted.
In the vehicle maintenance lift 1A (1B) shown in FIG. 4, a registration button 19A (19B) and a registration deletion button 20A (20B) are provided on the remote controller 10A (10B), respectively. Further, as shown in FIG. 5, here, a collation reader or tag is not used, and the remote control storage box 4A (4B) is connected to the drive control unit 2A (2B), and is a transmission / reception unit including a microcomputer, an antenna, and the like. 17A (17B) is provided, and the remote controller 10A (10B) is also provided with a transmission / reception unit 18A (18B) including a microcomputer, an antenna, etc., and wireless communication between the transmission / reception units 17A (17B) and 18A (18B) is performed. Communication is possible.

送受信部１７Ａ（１７Ｂ）には、リフト操作用に１〜９の９つのチャンネルと、リモコン１０Ａ（１０Ｂ）との照合用に１０及び１１の２つのチャンネルとが割り当てられており、リモコン１０Ａ（１０Ｂ）には、夫々固有番号からなるＩＤの他、夫々リフト操作用に１〜９のチャンネルの内の一つと、照合用の１０及び１１の２つのチャンネルとが割り当てられている。このように２つのチャンネルを持たせることで、通信中のデッドポイントを回避して確実性を高めるようにしている。また、リモコン１０Ａ（１０Ｂ）には、表示部２１Ａ（２１Ｂ）が設けられる一方、車両整備用リフト１Ａ（１Ｂ）には登録確認用ＬＥＤ２２Ａ（２２Ｂ）が設けられている。 The transmission / reception unit 17A (17B) is assigned nine channels 1 to 9 for lift operation and two channels 10 and 11 for comparison with the remote control 10A (10B). ) Are assigned IDs each having a unique number, and one of channels 1 to 9 and two channels 10 and 11 for collation are assigned for lift operation. Thus, by providing two channels, a dead point during communication is avoided and reliability is increased. The remote controller 10A (10B) is provided with a display 21A (21B), while the vehicle maintenance lift 1A (1B) is provided with a registration confirmation LED 22A (22B).

以上の如く構成されたリモコンシステムの動作を図６のフローチャートに基づいて説明する。なお、本形態２においても車両整備用リフト１Ａ，１Ｂ夫々においてリモコンシステムは同様の制御となるため、特に区別する必要がある場合を除き、主に車両整備用リフト１Ａについて以下説明を行う。
このリモコンシステムを使用する場合、まずＳ３１でリモコン１０Ａが車両整備用リフト１Ａの送受信部１７Ａに登録されているか否かが判別される。ここで登録済みであれば、Ｓ３２で、リモコン１０Ａが電源ＯＮ操作によって操作可能状態となっているか否かが判別され、操作可能状態であれば、Ｓ３３で通常のリフト操作が可能となる。 The operation of the remote control system configured as described above will be described based on the flowchart of FIG. In the second embodiment as well, since the remote control system performs the same control in each of the vehicle maintenance lifts 1A and 1B, the vehicle maintenance lift 1A will be mainly described below unless otherwise particularly required.
When this remote control system is used, it is first determined in S31 whether or not the remote control 10A is registered in the transmission / reception unit 17A of the vehicle maintenance lift 1A. If registered, it is determined in S32 whether or not the remote controller 10A is in an operable state by a power ON operation. If it is in an operable state, a normal lift operation can be performed in S33.

Ｓ３１の判別でリモコン１０Ａが登録されていなければ、Ｓ３４で登録ボタン１９Ａを押し操作すると、Ｓ３５でリモコン１０Ａの登録がされる。この登録処理は追って詳述する。
また、Ｓ３２の判別でリモコン１０Ａが操作不可状態であれば、Ｓ３６で「入」ボタン１１Ａを押し操作すると、Ｓ３７で送受信部１８ＡがＩＤ情報を含む「入」信号を高出力で発信し、送受信部１７Ａに登録済みのＩＤ情報と照合する（Ｓ３８、照合手段の実行）。ここでＩＤ情報が一致すれば、Ｓ３９で操作用ソフトが立ち上がってリモコン１０Ａが操作可能となる。 If the remote controller 10A is not registered in S31, when the registration button 19A is pressed in S34, the remote controller 10A is registered in S35. This registration process will be described in detail later.
If it is determined in S32 that the remote controller 10A is not operable, when the "ON" button 11A is pressed in S36, the transmission / reception unit 18A transmits an "ON" signal including ID information at a high output in S37. The ID information registered in the unit 17A is collated (S38, execution of collating means). If the ID information matches, the operation software is started up in S39 and the remote controller 10A can be operated.

そして、リフト操作が終了してＳ４０でリモコン１０Ａの「切」ボタン１２Ａが押されると、Ｓ４１でリモコン１０Ａの送受信部１８が高出力の「切」信号を発信し、送受信部１７Ａに登録済みのＩＤ情報と照合する（Ｓ４２）。ここでＩＤ情報が一致すると、Ｓ４３で操作用ソフトが終了してリモコン１０Ａが操作不可状態となる。また、Ｓ４０で「切」ボタン１２Ａが押されなくても、Ｓ４４の判別で、「入」ボタン１１Ａの押し操作からカウントされたタイマ（例えば１時間〜数時間）のタイムアップが確認されると、Ｓ４３で操作不可状態となる。
よって、再びリモコン１０Ａを使用したい場合は、Ｓ３６でリモコン１０Ａの「入」ボタン１１Ａを押すと、Ｓ３７以下の処理が行われてＳ３９でリモコン１０Ａは操作可能となる。 When the lift operation is completed and the “OFF” button 12A of the remote control 10A is pressed in S40, the transmission / reception unit 18 of the remote control 10A transmits a high output “OFF” signal in S41, and is registered in the transmission / reception unit 17A. The ID information is collated (S42). If the ID information matches, the operation software ends in S43, and the remote controller 10A becomes inoperable. Even if the “OFF” button 12A is not pressed in S40, it is confirmed in S44 that the timer counted from the pressing operation of the “ON” button 11A (for example, 1 hour to several hours) is up. In S43, the operation is disabled.
Therefore, if it is desired to use the remote controller 10A again, when the "ON" button 11A of the remote controller 10A is pressed in S36, the processing from S37 is performed, and the remote controller 10A becomes operable in S39.

一方、リモコンの登録は図７のフローチャートに従って行われる。
まず、登録ボタン１９Ａが押されると、Ｓ５１でリモコン１０Ａの送受信部１８Ａ（以下「リモコン側」という。）から自身のＩＤ情報を含む登録要求信号が発信される（要求手段の実行）。よって、Ｓ５２では、このＩＤ情報を車両整備用リフト１Ａの送受信部１７Ａ（以下「リフト側」という。）が検知エリアＳ内で受信したか否かを判別する。ここで検知エリアＳ外での受信であれば、登録処理を行わずに終了するが、検知エリアＳ内での受信であれば、リフト側では、受信したＩＤ情報が登録済みか否かを判別する（Ｓ５３）。ここで登録済みであれば、Ｓ５４でエラー報知を行い、Ｓ５５で登録処理をリセットして終了するが、未登録であれば、Ｓ５６で照合回数カウンタをリセットして、Ｓ５７で当該ＩＤ情報をデータレジスタに仮登録した後、Ｓ５８で、自身のリフトナンバーを含む仮登録情報をリモコン側へ高出力で返信する。 On the other hand, registration of the remote controller is performed according to the flowchart of FIG.
First, when the registration button 19A is pressed, a registration request signal including its own ID information is transmitted from the transmission / reception unit 18A (hereinafter referred to as “remote control side”) of the remote controller 10A in S51 (execution of request means). Therefore, in S52, it is determined whether or not the ID information is received in the detection area S by the transmission / reception unit 17A (hereinafter referred to as “lift side”) of the vehicle maintenance lift 1A. If the reception is outside the detection area S, the process ends without performing the registration process. If the reception is within the detection area S, the lift side determines whether or not the received ID information has been registered. (S53). If registered, an error is notified in S54, and the registration process is reset and terminated in S55. If unregistered, the verification counter is reset in S56, and the ID information is stored in S57. After temporarily registering in the register, in S58, the temporary registration information including its own lift number is returned to the remote controller side with high output.

リモコン側では、受信した仮登録情報を自身のＩＤ情報と照合し（Ｓ５９）、両者が一致していれば、Ｓ６０でＩＤ情報をデータレジスタに仮登録し、Ｓ６１で仮登録情報をリフト側へ再発信する。なお、Ｓ５９での照合が不一致であれば、Ｓ６２で表示部２１Ａにエラー表示を行ってＳ５５で登録処理をリセットして終了する。
一方、リフト側では、受信した仮登録情報を照合し（Ｓ６３）、自身の仮登録情報と一致していれば、Ｓ６４で照合回数をカウントする。不一致であればＳ５４でエラー報知を行ってＳ５５で登録処理をリセットして終了する。そして、Ｓ６５で、照合回数が予め設定された定数に達したか否かを判別し、定数に達していなければＳ５７へ戻り、再び当該ＩＤ情報を仮登録してリモコン側へ返信する。リモコン側でも再度照合して仮登録と再発信とを行い、リフト側で照合して回数のカウントを続ける（Ｓ５７〜Ｓ６４）。 On the remote control side, the received temporary registration information is collated with its own ID information (S59). If they match, the ID information is temporarily registered in the data register in S60, and the temporary registration information is transferred to the lift side in S61. Call again. If the collation in S59 does not match, an error is displayed on the display unit 21A in S62, the registration process is reset in S55, and the process ends.
On the other hand, the lift side collates the received temporary registration information (S63), and if it matches the temporary registration information of itself, the number of verifications is counted in S64. If they do not match, an error notification is issued in S54, the registration process is reset in S55, and the process ends. In S65, it is determined whether or not the number of collations has reached a preset constant. If the constant has not been reached, the process returns to S57 to temporarily register the ID information again and send it back to the remote controller. The remote control side collates again to perform temporary registration and re-transmission, and the lift side collates to continue counting the number of times (S57 to S64).

Ｓ６５の判別で照合回数が定数に達すると、Ｓ６６で、リフト側でＩＤ情報を本登録し（登録／抹消手段の実行）、Ｓ６７で登録確認用ＬＥＤ２２Ａを点灯させる一方、リモコン側へ本登録情報を高出力で返信する（Ｓ６８）。リモコン側では、受信したＩＤ情報をデータレジスタにおいて本登録し（Ｓ６９）、Ｓ７０で表示部２１Ａにリフトナンバーを表示する。これにより、操作者は当該リフト１Ａにリモコン１０Ａが登録されたことが分かる。 When the number of collations reaches a constant in S65, the ID information is fully registered on the lift side (execution of registration / deletion means) in S66 (registration / deletion means is executed), and the registration confirmation LED 22A is turned on in S67, while the registration information is sent to the remote control side. Is returned with high output (S68). On the remote control side, the received ID information is fully registered in the data register (S69), and the lift number is displayed on the display unit 21A in S70. As a result, the operator knows that the remote controller 10A is registered in the lift 1A.

一方、リモコン１０Ａの登録抹消は図８のフローチャートに従って行われる。
まず、Ｓ７１で抹消ボタン２０Ａが押されると、Ｓ７２でリモコン側から自身のＩＤ情報を含む登録抹消の要求信号が発信される（要求手段の実行）。よって、Ｓ７３では、この要求信号をリフト側が検知エリアＳ内で受信したか否かを判別する。ここで検知エリアＳ外での受信であれば、登録処理を行わずに終了するが、検知エリアＳ内での受信であれば、リフト側では、受信したＩＤ情報が一致しているか否かを判別する（Ｓ７４）。ここで不一致であれば、Ｓ７５でエラー報知を行い、Ｓ７６で登録抹消処理をリセットして終了するが、一致であれば、Ｓ７７で照合回数カウンタをリセットして、Ｓ７８でデータレジスタにおける当該ＩＤ情報を仮抹消した後、Ｓ７９で、自身のリフトナンバーを含む仮抹消情報をリモコン側へ高出力で返信する。 On the other hand, the registration cancellation of the remote controller 10A is performed according to the flowchart of FIG.
First, when the delete button 20A is pressed in S71, a request signal for deletion of registration including its own ID information is transmitted from the remote control side in S72 (execution of request means). Therefore, in S73, it is determined whether or not the request signal is received in the detection area S by the lift side. If the reception is outside the detection area S, the process ends without performing the registration process. If the reception is within the detection area S, the lift side determines whether or not the received ID information matches. A determination is made (S74). If there is a mismatch, an error notification is issued in S75, and the registration deletion process is reset and terminated in S76. If they match, the verification counter is reset in S77, and the ID information in the data register in S78. In step S79, temporary deletion information including its own lift number is returned to the remote controller side with high output.

リモコン側では、受信した仮抹消情報を自身のＩＤ情報と照合し（Ｓ８０）、両者が一致していれば、Ｓ８１でデータレジスタのＩＤ情報を仮抹消し、Ｓ８２で仮抹消情報をリフト側へ再発信する。なお、Ｓ８０での照合が不一致であれば、Ｓ８３で表示部２１Ａにエラー表示を行ってＳ７６で登録抹消処理をリセットして終了する。
一方、リフト側では、受信した仮抹消情報を照合し（Ｓ８４）、自身の仮抹消情報と一致していれば、Ｓ８５で照合回数をカウントする。不一致であればＳ７５でエラー報知を行ってＳ７６で登録抹消処理をリセットして終了する。そして、Ｓ８６で、照合回数が予め設定された定数に達したか否かを判別し、定数に達していなければＳ７８へ戻り、再び当該ＩＤ情報を仮抹消してリモコン側へ返信する。リモコン側でも再度照合して仮抹消と再発信とを行い、リフト側で照合して回数のカウントを続ける（Ｓ７８〜Ｓ８５）。 On the remote control side, the received temporary deletion information is collated with its own ID information (S80). If the two match, the ID information in the data register is temporarily deleted in S81, and the temporary deletion information is transferred to the lift side in S82. Call again. If the collation in S80 does not match, an error is displayed on the display unit 21A in S83, the registration deletion process is reset in S76, and the process ends.
On the other hand, the lift side collates the received temporary erasure information (S84), and if it coincides with its own temporary erasure information, the number of collations is counted in S85. If they do not match, error notification is performed in S75, and the registration deletion process is reset in S76 and the process is terminated. Then, in S86, it is determined whether or not the number of collations has reached a preset constant. If the constant has not been reached, the process returns to S78, and the ID information is temporarily deleted and returned to the remote controller. The remote control side collates again to perform temporary erasure and re-transmission, and the lift side collates to continue counting (S78 to S85).

Ｓ８６の判別で照合回数が定数に達すると、Ｓ８７で、リフト側でＩＤ情報を本抹消し（登録／抹消手段の実行）、Ｓ８８で登録確認用ＬＥＤ２２Ａを消灯させる一方、リモコン側へ本抹消情報を高出力で返信する（Ｓ８９）。リモコン側では、受信したＩＤ情報をデータレジスタから本抹消し（Ｓ９０）、Ｓ９１で表示部２１Ａのリフトナンバーを消去する。これにより、操作者は当該リフト１Ａにリモコン１０Ａの登録が抹消されたことが分かる。 When the number of collations reaches a constant in the determination in S86, the ID information is permanently deleted on the lift side (execution of registration / erasure means) in S87, and the registration confirmation LED 22A is turned off in S88, while the permanent deletion information is sent to the remote control side. Is returned with high output (S89). On the remote control side, the received ID information is permanently deleted from the data register (S90), and the lift number of the display unit 21A is deleted in S91. As a result, the operator knows that the registration of the remote controller 10A has been deleted from the lift 1A.

このように、上記形態２のリモコンシステムにおいても、リモコン１０Ａに、所定のＩＤ情報を設定すると共に、送受信部１７Ａに対してＩＤ情報の登録又は抹消の要求信号を任意に送信可能な要求手段を設ける一方、車両整備用リフト１Ａの近傍に、リモコン１０Ａを収納可能なリモコン収納ボックス４Ａを設けて、そのリモコン収納ボックス４Ａに送受信部１７Ａを設け、送受信部１４Ａに、検知エリアＳ内でリモコン１０Ａの要求手段によって要求されたＩＤ情報を登録又は抹消する登録／抹消手段と、その登録／抹消手段によって登録されたＩＤ情報を検知エリアＳ内でリモコン１０Ａから受信したＩＤ情報と照合して両情報が一致した場合にリモコン１０Ａの認証を行う照合手段とを設けて、駆動制御部２Ａは、送受信部１７Ａの登録／抹消手段によって登録され、照合手段によって認証されたリモコン１０Ａによる動作指令のみを受け付けるようにしている。
よって、車両整備用リフト１Ａ，１Ｂと対応したリモコン１０Ａ，１０Ｂを夫々誤操作なく使用可能となり、安全性に優れる。特に、リモコン１Ａ，１Ｂの認証に特別な操作が不要であるため、使い勝手が向上して操作性も良好となる。さらにここでは、送受信部１７Ａに対してリモコンのＩＤ情報の登録と抹消とが任意に行えるため、リモコンが損傷したり紛失したりしても他のリモコンで代用でき、より使い勝手に優れる。 As described above, also in the remote control system according to the second aspect, the request unit can set predetermined ID information in the remote controller 10A and can arbitrarily transmit a request signal for registration or deletion of ID information to the transmitter / receiver 17A. On the other hand, a remote control storage box 4A capable of storing the remote controller 10A is provided in the vicinity of the vehicle maintenance lift 1A, and a transmitter / receiver 17A is provided in the remote controller storage box 4A, and the remote controller 10A is installed in the transmitter / receiver 14A within the detection area S. The registration / deletion means for registering or deleting the ID information requested by the request means, and the ID information registered by the registration / deletion means is compared with the ID information received from the remote controller 10A in the detection area S. And a verification unit that authenticates the remote controller 10A when the two match, the drive control unit 2A Registered by recording / erasure means, and to accept only the operation command by the authenticated remote controller 10A by the matching means.
Therefore, the remote controls 10A and 10B corresponding to the vehicle maintenance lifts 1A and 1B can be used without any erroneous operation, and the safety is excellent. In particular, since no special operation is required for authentication of the remote controllers 1A and 1B, usability is improved and operability is improved. Furthermore, since the remote controller ID information can be arbitrarily registered and deleted from the transmitter / receiver 17A, even if the remote controller is damaged or lost, it can be replaced with another remote controller, which is more convenient.

また、ＩＤ情報の登録又は抹消の際、送受信部１７Ａ，１８Ａとは、ＩＤ情報を互いに受け渡しして夫々照合を行い、送受信部１７Ａでの照合が所定回数に達したらＩＤ情報の登録／抹消を行うようにしているので、ＩＤ情報の登録／抹消が確実に行え、誤登録や誤抹消が防止されて通信の信頼性が高まる。
さらに、送受信部１７Ａは、ＩＤ情報の登録／抹消を行った後、当該登録／抹消情報をリモコン側の送信よりも高出力でリモコン１０Ａに送信するようにしているので、通信エラーがより確実に防止可能となる。 Further, when registering or deleting ID information, the transmitting / receiving units 17A and 18A exchange the ID information with each other to perform verification, and when the verification in the transmitting / receiving unit 17A reaches a predetermined number of times, register / delete ID information. Therefore, the registration / deletion of the ID information can be reliably performed, and erroneous registration and erroneous deletion are prevented, thereby improving communication reliability.
Furthermore, the transmission / reception unit 17A transmits the registration / deletion information to the remote control 10A at a higher output than the transmission on the remote control side after registering / deleting the ID information. It becomes possible to prevent.

なお、上記形態２において、登録／抹消の際のＩＤ情報の受け渡しと照合との回数は適宜設定できるし、複数回の受け渡しを行わずに、リモコン側からの要求信号を受信したら直ちに登録／抹消を行うようにすることもできる。また、通信の出力も高低に切り換えることなく、リモコン側とリフト側とで常に同じとしてもよい。 In the above-described form 2, the number of times of ID information transfer and verification at the time of registration / deletion can be appropriately set, and registration / deletion is performed immediately after receiving a request signal from the remote controller without performing multiple transfers. It is also possible to perform. Also, the communication output may be always the same on the remote control side and the lift side without switching between high and low.

そして、上記形態１，２に共通して、車両整備用リフトとリモコンとの数は２組に限らず、３組以上設置した場合であっても、同様にＩＤ情報による車両整備用リフトとリモコンとの対応関係の設定は可能である。
また、車両整備用リフトに限らず、荷役用のテーブルリフトといった他のリフト装置にも本発明を適用して差し支えない。 In common with the first and second embodiments, the number of vehicle maintenance lifts and remote controllers is not limited to two, and even when three or more pairs are installed, the vehicle maintenance lifts and remote controllers based on ID information are similarly used. It is possible to set a correspondence relationship with.
Further, the present invention may be applied to other lift devices such as a table lift for cargo handling as well as a vehicle maintenance lift.
