Description

The present invention relates to an alarm device and an alarm system for detecting an alarm such as a fire and a low battery failure of a battery power source, and transmitting a signal to another alarm device to output the alarm in conjunction with the alarm.

  Conventionally, residential alarms (hereinafter referred to as “residential alarms”) that detect and warn of fires at homes have become widespread. In recent years, multiple residential alarms can communicate with each other wirelessly. Residential alarms for an interlocking alarm system that can alarm abnormal information of one residential alarm with other alarms have been put into practical use, and some of these operate with battery power.

  In an interlocking alarm system that performs wireless communication, the home alarm device that detected the fire outputs, for example, a voice message stating “Wu-woo fire alarm has been activated” In the linked home alarm, the voice message “Check if the fire alarm for each Woo has been activated” is output. In addition, the indicator light of the interlocking home alarm device is turned on, and the indicator light of the interlocking destination home alarm device is blinking so that the interlock source or the interlocking destination can be distinguished from the display of the indicator light.

  In addition, when an alarm is provided by the interlocking source and the interlocking house alarm, if the alarm stop switch provided on the alarm is operated, the alarm of the operated alarm can be stopped. Yes.

  Furthermore, in the conventional home alarm device, the state of the battery power supply is checked at every predetermined time interval, and the low battery indicating that the battery voltage is decreasing and the battery is almost exhausted or a sensor for detecting an abnormality is detected. A fault monitoring function is provided for detecting and alerting the presence or absence of faults such as faults.

  For battery power failure monitoring, for example, the power supply voltage of the battery power supply is read into the CPU at intervals of 4 hours, compared with a predetermined threshold level, and when it falls below the threshold level, a low battery failure is determined. When 5 consecutive times, a low battery failure is confirmed and a low battery failure alarm is issued.

  In a linked alarm system that performs wireless communication, when a low battery failure is detected by a certain home alarm device, the home alarm device that has detected the low battery failure may, for example, The voice message “Battery is exhausted” is output. On the other hand, the linking alarm device outputs a voice message “Pipe fire alarm is out of battery”. In addition, the indicator light of the interlocking home alarm device is lit, the indicator light of the interlocking destination home alarm device is blinking, and it is possible to distinguish whether the interlocking source or interlocking destination of the low battery failure from the indicator light display. Yes.

  Here, the interlocking source alarm stop unit stops the alarm display indicating the interlocking source that has continued when the alarm stop operation of the operation unit is detected, and stops when a predetermined time elapses or the alarm stop operation of the operation unit is detected.

  The failure alarm processing unit changes the alarm display indicating the link source and the alarm display indicating the link destination. The abnormality alarm processing unit may change the display color of the alarm display indicating the interlocking source and the display color of the alarm display indicating the interlocking destination.

  Moreover, you may make it differ the color of the alarm display which shows abnormalities, such as a fire, and the display which shows a failure. In this way, it is possible to identify on the display that a failure is being reported instead of being alarmed.

  Furthermore, the display color of the link source and the link destination can be made different even during failure notification. In this way, it is possible to identify in detail on the display whether the alarm is being issued or the fault is being notified, and whether the link source is the link source or the link destination.

  The failure detection unit obtains an average value of detection signals from the sensor unit at predetermined time intervals, and determines a sensor failure when the average value deviates from a predetermined zero point level.

Furthermore, a battery power supply for supplying its own operating power is provided, and the failure detection unit detects a power supply voltage of the battery power supply at a predetermined time interval and determines a low battery failure when it is below a predetermined threshold voltage. A low battery failure is determined when the battery failure determination result continues for a predetermined number of times.

(First mode)
According to the first mode of the present invention, when a fault such as a sensor fault or a low battery fault is detected and a linked alarm is performed by a plurality of alarm devices by interlocking, an alarm stop operation is performed by the interlocking source alarm device. The alarm sound that is being performed by other alarm devices and the alarm that indicates the interlock destination by the alarm display are all stopped. On the other hand, in the alarm device of the interlock source, the alarm sound is stopped but the alarm display is at least for a predetermined period. As a result, no alarm stop operation is required for each alarm device, and when all alarm stops are performed in conjunction with the alarm stop operation, the alarm sound of the interlocking source alarm device is stopped. Since the alarm display is continued for at least a predetermined period, it is possible to easily identify the alarm device that has caused the failure and take measures for the occurred failure, for example, replacement of the battery or replacement of the home alarm device itself.

(Second mode)
According to the second mode of the present invention, when a failure such as a sensor failure or a low battery failure is detected and a linkage alarm is performed by a plurality of alarm devices by linkage, any alarm device that issues a linkage alarm can be used. When the alarm stop operation is performed, the alarm sound and the alarm display of the interlocking source continue for at least a predetermined period, and all the alarm sounds indicating the interlocking destination are stopped. Even if the alarm sound of the interlocking destination stops due to the operation, the alarm sound and alarm display of the interlocking source alarm device continues for at least the specified period, so the faulty alarm device can be easily identified and the battery replaced. And replacement of the home alarm.

  In addition, all alarm sounds at the interlocking destination will be stopped by the alarm stop operation at any alarm device, but if the alarm display at the interlocking destination continues for at least the specified period, for example, it will be installed in a place where the alarm sound of the interlocking source cannot be heard In the linked alarm device, it can be known that the interlock source alarm device is still in trouble alarm.

(Third mode)
According to the third mode of the present invention, when a fault such as a sensor fault or a low battery fault is detected and a linked alarm is performed by a plurality of alarm devices in conjunction with each other, an alarm is issued by any alarm device that performs the alarm. When the stop operation is performed, all the alarm sounds performed by the interlocking source and interlocking destination alarm devices are stopped. On the other hand, in the interlocking source alarm device, the alarm sound is stopped but the alarm display is continued. The alarm stop operation for each alarm device is not required, and even if the alarm stop operation is performed all at once with the alarm stop operation, the alarm display continues even if the alarm sound stops for the interlocking source alarm device Therefore, it is possible to easily identify the alarm device in which the failure has occurred and take measures for the failure that has occurred, for example, replacement of the battery or replacement of the house alarm device itself.

(Interlock destination stop control)
As described above, the failure alarm stop in the first mode, the second mode, and the third mode is basically the same in that the alarm stop process during the alarm as the linkage source continues at least, but the alarm is set as the linkage destination. The alarm stop process is different.

  That is, in the first mode, if the own alarm stop operation is performed during the alarm as the interlocking destination, the alarm sound is stopped, and the display is continued until the event signal indicating the continuation, the continuation for a predetermined period, or the failure recovery is received. And the event signal which shows an alarm stop is not transmitted with respect to another alarm device. As a result, for the alarm device that is in alarm as the linkage destination, the alarm sound can be stopped by the alarm stop operation, and the alarm sound and display of other alarm devices can be continued.

  On the other hand, in the second mode, if the own alarm stop operation is performed during the alarm as the interlocking destination, the alarm sound is stopped and the display continues until the event signal indicating the continuation or the continuation for a predetermined period or the recovery is received. And the event signal which shows an alarm stop is transmitted with respect to another alarm device. As a result, for the alarm device that is in the alarm state as the interlock destination, the alarm sound is stopped by the alarm stop operation, but the display can be continued, and the alarm device of the interlock destination that has performed the alarm stop operation can be identified.

  In the third mode, if the own alarm stop operation is performed during the alarm as the interlock destination, the alarm sound and the alarm display are stopped, and an event signal indicating the alarm stop is transmitted to the other alarm devices. As a result, the same alarm stop control can be performed for the alarming device as the interlocking destination as if the alarm stop operation was performed with the alarming device as the interlocking source.

In this specification, unless otherwise specified, “alarm” refers to “failure alarm” and “recovery” refers to “failure recovery”. “Alarm display” means “display accompanying alarm”.

  FIG. 1 is an explanatory view showing the appearance of a wireless residential alarm (house fire alarm) according to the present invention, with a front view shown in FIG. 1 (A) and a side view shown in FIG. 1 (B). Yes.

  In FIG. 1, the housing | casing of the residence guard 10 of this embodiment is comprised by the cover 12 and the main body 14, and various functional components are incorporated in this inside. A smoke inlet is opened in the center of the cover 12, and a smoke detector 16 is disposed inside the cover 12 so that a fire is detected when smoke from the fire reaches a predetermined concentration.

  An acoustic hole 18 is provided on the lower left side of the smoke detector 16 provided in the cover 12, and a buzzer and a speaker are incorporated behind this so that an alarm sound and a voice message can be output via a voice synthesis circuit or a voice amplifier. ing. An alarm stop switch 20 is provided below the smoke detector 16. The alarm stop switch 20 also has a function as an inspection switch for instructing a functional inspection of the home alarm. For example, when the alarm stop switch 20 is operated during a fire alarm, the alarm is stopped, and when the alarm stop switch 20 is operated in a normal state, a predetermined function check is performed and the result is notified.

  The alarm stop switch 20 includes a switch cover formed of a translucent member and a tact switch (not shown) arranged inside the switch cover. In the vicinity of the tact switch inside the switch cover, an LED 22 for displaying an alarm is arranged as indicated by a dotted line. When the LED 22 lights up, the LED 22 is lit through the switch cover portion of the alarm stop switch 20 and the lighting state of the LED 22 is external. As you can see from.

  Further, a mounting hook 15 is provided on the upper rear side of the main body 14. For example, the housing alarm 10 is installed on the wall surface by screwing a screw or the like into the wall of the installation room and passing the screw through the mounting hook 15. Can do.

  In addition, in the residential alarm 10 of FIG. 1, although the residential alarm which detects the smoke by the fire provided with the smoke detection part 16 is taken as an example, temperature of the thermistor etc. which detects the heat by a fire besides this is also taken. House alarms with detection elements, house alarms that detect other physical phenomena associated with fires, alarms that detect gas leaks in addition to fires, various alarms that detect intruders, earthquakes, and other abnormalities, etc. Alarm devices formed by combining these are also included in the subject of the present invention.

  FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram showing an installation state of the alarm system of the present embodiment for a house. In the example of FIG. 2, there are residence alarm devices 10-1 to 10-4 for detecting and alarming the fire of this embodiment in each of the kitchen, living room, main bedroom, and child room provided in the house 24. The resident guard 10-5 is also installed in the garage 26 which is installed and is built outdoors.

  The home alarm devices 10-1 to 10-5 have a function of transmitting / receiving event signals to / from each other wirelessly, and perform fire monitoring of the entire house.

  If a fire has occurred in the child room of the house 24, the resident guard 10-4 detects the fire and starts a fire alarm (abnormal alarm). Detecting this fire and initiating a fire alarm is referred to as “reporting” at the home alarm. When the resident alarm 10-4 is triggered, the resident alarm 10-4 functions as an interlocking source, and shows a fire to the other resident alarms 10-1 to 10-3 and 10-5 that are interlocking destinations. An event signal is transmitted wirelessly. When an event signal indicating a fire is received from the other home alarm devices 10-1 to 10-3, 10-5, or the source home alarm device 10-4, a fire as an interlock destination by an alarm sound and an alarm display Perform alarm action.

  Here, as the alarm sound of the home alarm device 10-4 that has become the link source, for example, “Please confirm that the Woo fire alarm has been activated” is output by a voice message. On the other hand, in the interlocked residence alarm devices 10-1 to 10-3, 10-5, a voice message such as “Please confirm that another fire alarm has been activated” is output.

  Moreover, as a display accompanying the fire alarm of the residence police device 10-4 as the interlocking source, for example, the LED 22 is turned on. On the other hand, the LED 22 is blinked in the interlocked residence police 10-1 to 10-3, 10-5. Thereby, the alarm display by the LED 50 in the interlock source alarm and the interlock destination alarm can be distinguished.

  It should be noted that the interlocking source LED 22 may be blinking and the interlocking destination LED 22 may be blinking, or the same LED 22 may be blinking, blinking, or lit for both the interlocking source alarm and the interlocking destination alarm.

  When the alarm stop switch 20 is operated in a state in which the home alarm devices 10-1 to 10-5 are issuing a fire alarm, the alarm sound and alarm display stop processing is performed.

  In addition, the house alarm devices 10-1 to 10-5 monitor a sensor failure or a low battery failure that approaches a battery exhaustion due to a decrease in battery voltage.

  For example, when a sensor failure is detected by the home alarm device 10-1, a “failure” alarm is output from the speaker continuously for a predetermined number of times as a sensor failure alarm sound indicating the link source, and thereafter, “pick, Repeat the process of outputting “failure” a predetermined number of times. In addition, when an inspection operation by the alarm stop switch 20 is detected in a state where a sensor failure is detected, “pick, please contact the dealer” is output once. In addition, the LED 22 is turned on, blinks, or blinks in synchronization with the failure alarm sound indicating the link source.

  A sensor failure detected by the home alarm device 10-1 is sent to the other home alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5 by an event signal every time a sensor failure alarm is output at the link source, for example, and indicates a link destination “Short-ranging alarm device is faulty” is output from the speaker as a failure alarm sound. In addition, the LED 22 is turned on, blinked, or blinked in synchronization with the alarm sound indicating the interlock destination.

  In addition, when the low battery failure of the battery is detected by the home alarm device 10-1, a “beep, battery exhausted” is continuously output from the speaker a predetermined number of times as a low battery failure alarm sound indicating the link source, and then for a certain time Every time, the process of outputting “beep, battery exhausted” a predetermined number of times is repeated. In addition, if an inspection operation by the alarm stop switch 20 is detected in a state where the battery has been detected, “pipe, battery is exhausted. Replace the battery” is output once. In addition, the LED 22 is turned on, blinks, or blinks in synchronization with a low battery failure alarm sound indicating the link source.

  The low battery failure detected by the home alarm device 10-1 is sent to the other home alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5 by an event signal every time a low battery failure alarm is issued at the link source, for example, indicating the link destination. Outputs “Beep alarm is out of battery” from the speaker as a low battery failure alarm sound.

  When the alarm stop switch 20 is operated in a state in which the home alarm devices 10-1 to 10-5 are issuing a failure alarm, the alarm sound and alarm display stop processing is performed.

  The alarm stop process of the present invention includes a first mode stop process, a second mode stop process, and a third mode stop process. Each mode stop process differs depending on whether the stop operation is performed at the interlocking source or the stop operation is performed at the interlocking destination. The first mode stop process, the second mode stop process, and the third mode stop process are summarized as follows.

(1) First mode stop processing When a failure alarm is stopped at the interlock source, the alarm sound indicating the interlock source is stopped but the display is continued, and further, an alarm stop signal is transmitted to the interlock destination to display the alarm sound. Stop.

  When the failure alarm is stopped at the interlocking destination, only the alarm sound and display indicating its own interlocking destination are stopped, but the alarm stop signal is not transmitted to the other residential alarms, and the fault alarm is maintained.

(2) Second mode stop processing When the failure alarm is stopped at the interlock source, the alarm sound and display indicating the source of the interlock are continued and the alarm stop signal is transmitted to the interlock destination to stop the alarm sound and display. Let

  When the failure alarm is stopped at the interlock destination, the alarm sound and display indicating its own interlock destination are stopped, the alarm stop signal is transmitted to the other house alarms, and the alarm sound and display are continued for the interlock source. The alarm sound and display are stopped for the linked destination.

(3) Third mode stop processing When a failure alarm is stopped at the interlock source, the alarm sound indicating the source of the interlock is stopped, but the display is continued, and an alarm stop signal is transmitted to the interlock destination to generate an alarm sound. And stop the display.

  When the failure alarm stop operation is performed at the interlock destination, the alarm sound and display indicating its own interlock destination are stopped, an alarm stop signal is transmitted to the other resident alarm, and the interlock source stops the alarm sound and displays it. Continue to stop the alarm sound and display at the link destination.

  FIG. 3 shows the alarm control before and after the stop operation is performed at the interlock source for the failure alarm in the first mode alarm stop process. FIG. 3 (A) shows a state before the alarm is stopped, and the residential alarm device 10-1 among the interlocked relationships of the residential alarm devices 10-1 to 10-5 detects, for example, a low battery failure, and the residential alarm device 10-1. The alarm sound “Battery exhausted” is displayed, for example, the LED 22 is turned on (first display) to indicate a failure alarm indicating the interlocking source, and the remaining residence alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5 The alarm is out of battery ”, and a failure alarm indicating the interlocking destination is given by an alarm display by blinking (second display) of the LED 22, for example.

  When the alarm stop switch 20 provided in the interlocking home alarm device 10-1 is operated as indicated by an arrow A in the interlocked state of the fault alarm, the alarm stop operation is performed as shown in FIG. The interlocking home resident alarm 10-1 stops the alarm sound indicating the interlocking source, but the alarm display by turning on the LED 22 indicating the interlocking source (first display) is continued for at least a predetermined period.

  Further, the interlocking home police device 10-1 transmits an event signal indicating the alarm stop to the interlocking destination home police devices 10-2 to 10-5 in response to the alarm stop operation. For this reason, the alarm display by the blinking of LED22 and the alarm sound of the failure | damage which shows the interlocking destination stops the interlocking | destination residence alarm device 10-2 to 10-5.

  Thus, when a fault interlocking alarm is issued, the alarm of the interlocking source home alarm device 10-1 is not required even if the alarm stop operation is not performed by going to the location where the interlocking home alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5 are installed. The interlocking destination alarm can be stopped by the stop operation, and the stop operation can be performed easily and easily.

  Even if all the alarm sounds are stopped by the alarm stop operation in the interlocking source alarm device 10-1, the alarm display by, for example, lighting of the LED 22 in the interlocking source alarm device 10-1 is continued for at least a predetermined period, and the low battery It is possible to easily and reliably identify a faulty home alarm device.

  The alarm display by the LED 22 of the interlocking home police 10-1 that is continued after the alarm is stopped is stopped after a lapse of a predetermined time determined by the timer setting, or is again alerted by the interlocking home police 10-1. Stop when stop operation is performed.

  FIG. 4 shows the alarm control before and after the stop operation is performed at the interlock destination for the failure alarm in the first mode alarm stop process. FIG. 4 (A) shows the state before the alarm is stopped, and the home alarm device 10-1 detects, for example, a low battery failure and interlocks with the alarm sound “battery exhausted” by the alarm display by turning on the LED 22 (first display), for example. A failure alarm indicating the origin is performed, and the remaining house alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5 are linked to the alarm sound by “alarm is out of battery” and the LED 22 blinks (second display), for example. A fault warning is displayed.

  When the alarm stop switch 20 provided in the interlocked house alarm device 10-2 is operated as shown by an arrow B in the interlocked state of the fault alarm, the alarm stop operation is performed as shown in FIG. Since the resident alarm device 10-2 that has been linked stops the alarm sound indicating the linkage destination, but does not transmit an alarm stop event signal to the other resident alarm devices 10-1, 10-3 to 10-5, The alarm sound and display continue.

  As described above, in the first mode, the failure alarm stop operation at the interlocking destination only stops the alarm sound and display only of the house alarm device that performed the stop operation.

  FIG. 5 shows the alarm control before and after the stop operation is performed at the interlock source for the failure alarm in the second mode alarm stop process. FIG. 5 (A) shows a state before the alarm is stopped, and the residential alarm device 10-1 among the interlocked relationships of the residential alarm devices 10-1 to 10-5 detects, for example, a low battery failure and the residential alarm device 10-1. The alarm sound “Battery exhausted” is displayed, for example, the LED 22 is turned on (first display) to indicate a failure alarm indicating the interlocking source, and the remaining residence alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5 The alarm is out of battery ”, and a failure alarm indicating the interlocking destination is given by an alarm display by blinking (second display) of the LED 22, for example.

  When the alarm stop switch 20 provided in the interlocking home alarm device 10-1 is operated as shown by the arrow A in the interlocked state of the fault alarm, the alarm stop operation is performed as shown in FIG. The interlocking home resident alarm 10-1 stops the alarm sound indicating the interlocking source, but the alarm display by turning on the LED 22 indicating the interlocking source (first display) is continued for at least a predetermined period.

  Further, the interlocking home police device 10-1 transmits an event signal indicating the alarm stop to the interlocking destination home police devices 10-2 to 10-5 in response to the alarm stop operation. For this reason, the alarm display by the blinking of LED22 and the alarm sound of the failure | damage which shows the interlocking destination stops the interlocking | destination residence alarm device 10-2 to 10-5.

  FIG. 6 shows the alarm control before and after the stop operation is performed at the interlock destination for the failure alarm in the second mode alarm stop processing. FIG. 6 (A) shows the state before the alarm is stopped, and the home alarm device 10-1 detects, for example, a low battery failure and interlocks with the alarm sound “battery exhausted” and the alarm display by turning on the LED 22 (first display), for example. A failure alarm indicating the origin is performed, and the remaining house alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5 are linked to each other by an alarm display by, for example, blinking (second display) of the LED 22 with an alarm sound “other alarm devices are dead”. A fault warning is displayed.

  When the alarm stop switch 20 provided in the interlocked house alarm device 10-2 is operated as indicated by an arrow B in the interlocked state of the fault alarm, the alarm stop operation is performed as shown in FIG. 6 (B). The interlocked house resident alarm 10-2 stops the alarm sound and display indicating the interlocked party, and transmits an alarm stop event signal to the other resident alarms 10-1, 10-3 to 10-5. . For this reason, the interlocking residence police 10-3 to 10-5 stop the alarm sound and display, but the interlocking residence police 10-1 turns on the LED 22 indicating the alarm sound and the interlocking source (first display). The alarm display by) continues for at least a predetermined period.

  When an interlocking alarm is performed in this way, it is not necessary to go to the place where the residence guards 10-1 to 10-5 are installed and perform an alarm stop operation. The alarm sound and the alarm display of the interlocking source are not stopped by the alarm stop operation of the alarm device, and all of the alarm sound and the alarm display of the interlocking destination can be stopped, and the stop operation can be performed easily and easily.

  Further, even if an alarm stop operation is performed with an arbitrary residential alarm, the alarm sound of the interlocking source alarm device 10-1 and the alarm display by turning on the LED 22, for example, are continued and installed at a place away from the interlocking source. Even at the linked alarm device, it is possible to know that the linked alarm is still in the fault alarm, and it is easy to identify the faulty home alarm device and replace the battery or the home alarm device itself. Can be taken.

  The alarm display by the LED 22 of the interlocking home police 10-1 continuing after the alarm stop is stopped when a predetermined time determined by the timer setting elapses or when an alarm stop operation is performed.

  In this case, it is possible to prevent the display of the interlocking destination from stopping while the alarm sound of the interlocking source continues. As the interlock destination alarm display to be left at the time of the alarm stop operation, the LED 22 may be turned on or blinked in the same manner as the interlock source other than the blinking of the LED 22.

  In addition, the alarm display by blinking of the LED 22 may be made to distinguish the meaning of each display by changing the cycle, the distinction of the linkage source and the linkage destination, and the alarm stop depending on the combination of the blinking indications having different cycles, etc. It becomes possible to distinguish before and after operation. The same applies to blinking.

  FIG. 7 shows the alarm control before and after the stop operation is performed at the interlock source for the failure alarm in the third mode alarm stop process. FIG. 7 (A) is before the alarm is stopped, and the home alarm device 10-1 detects, for example, a low-battery failure and interlocks with an alarm sound by the lighting (first display) of the LED 22, for example, when the alarm sound “Battery is dead”. A failure alarm indicating the origin is performed, and the remaining house alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5 are linked to each other by an alarm display by, for example, blinking (second display) of the LED 22 with an alarm sound “other alarm devices are dead”. A fault warning is displayed.

  When the alarm stop switch 20 provided in the interlocking home alarm device 10-1 is operated as shown by the arrow A in the interlocked state of the fault alarm, the alarm stop operation is performed as shown in FIG. 7B. The interlocking home resident alarm 10-1 stops the alarm sound indicating the interlocking source, but the alarm display by turning on the LED 22 indicating the interlocking source (first display) is continued for at least a predetermined period.

  Further, the interlocking home police device 10-1 transmits an event signal indicating the alarm stop to the interlocking destination home police devices 10-2 to 10-5 in response to the alarm stop operation. For this reason, the interlocking home alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5 stop the alarm display by the alarm sound of the failure indicating the interlocking destination and the flashing of the LED 22.

  FIG. 8 shows the alarm control before and after the stop operation is performed at the interlocking destination for the failure alarm in the third mode alarm stop process. FIG. 8 (A) shows the state before the alarm is stopped, and the home alarm device 10-1 detects, for example, a low battery failure and interlocks with the alarm sound “battery exhausted” and the alarm display by turning on the LED 22 (first display), for example. A failure alarm indicating the origin is performed, and the remaining house alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5 are linked to each other by an alarm display by, for example, blinking (second display) of the LED 22 with an alarm sound “other alarm devices are dead”. A fault warning is displayed.

  When the alarm stop switch 20 provided in the interlocked house alarm device 10-2 is operated as shown by an arrow B in the interlocking state of the fault alarm, the alarm stop operation is performed as shown in FIG. 8B. The interlocked house resident alarm 10-2 stops the alarm sound and display indicating the interlocked party, and transmits an alarm stop event signal to the other resident alarms 10-1, 10-3 to 10-5. . For this reason, the interlocking destination home alarm devices 10-3 to 10-5 stop the alarm sound and display. Moreover, the alarm display by lighting (1st display) of the LED22 which shows an alarm sound and the interlocking origin continues the alarm display of the interlocking origin residential alarm 10-1 at least for a predetermined period.

  As described above, in the third mode stop process, when an interlocking alarm is performed, the home alarm devices 10-1 to 10-1 can be operated without going to the installation locations of the home alarm devices 10-1 to 10-5 and performing the alarm stop operation. The alarm sound of the interlocking source and the interlocking destination can be stopped by the alarm stop operation of any of the residential alarms within 10-5, the alarm display of the interlocking source can be left as it is, and all the alarm displays of the interlocking destination can be stopped. Stop operation is simple and easy.

  In addition, even if an arbitrary alarm operation is stopped, the alarm display by, for example, lighting of the LED 22 in the interlocking alarm device 10-1 is continued, and the identification of the fault alarm device can be easily specified. It is possible to take measures such as battery replacement or replacement of the home alarm.

  The alarm display by the LED 22 of the interlocking home police 10-1 continuing after the alarm stop is stopped when a predetermined time determined by the timer setting elapses or when an alarm stop operation is detected.

  The alarm stop process in the first mode, the second mode, and the third mode is basically the same in that the alarm stop process during the alarm as the interlock source is at least the display is continued, but the alarm during the alarm as the interlock destination The stop process is different.

  That is, in the first mode, if the own alarm stop operation is performed during the alarm as the interlocking destination, the alarm sound is stopped and the display is continued until an event signal indicating that the alarm continues or is restored for a predetermined period is received. And the event signal which shows an alarm stop is not transmitted with respect to another alarm device.

  On the other hand, in the second mode, if the own alarm stop operation is performed during the alarm as the interlocking destination, the alarm sound is stopped and the display continues until the event signal indicating the continuation or the continuation for a predetermined period or the recovery is received. And the event signal which shows an alarm stop is transmitted with respect to another alarm device.

  In the third mode, if the own alarm stop operation is performed during the alarm as the interlock destination, the alarm sound and the alarm display are stopped, and an event signal indicating the alarm stop is transmitted to the other alarm devices.

  In any of the 1st to 3rd modes, if the fault condition of the link source has been resolved and the fault has been recovered, the alarm sound and warning display of each residential alarm continued after the alarm stop operation is displayed. You may make it stop.

  FIG. 9 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of a residential alarm provided in the alarm system of FIG. 2, and the five residential alarms 10-1 to 10-5 shown in FIG. The circuit configuration of the device 10-1 is shown in detail. It becomes the same structure also about the other residence guards 10-2 to 10-5.

  Although the arrow which connects the residence guard 10-1 and the other residence guards 10-2 to 10-5 has shown that each communicates, for example, the residence guard 10-2 and the residence guard 10-3 And so on. Of course, the present invention can also be applied to a system in which the home alarm device 10-1 is used as a base unit of the system and communication is performed only along the route indicated by the arrow in FIG.

  The home guard 10-1 includes a processor 28 known as a one-chip CPU. For the processor 28, a wireless communication unit 30 including an antenna 31, a recording circuit unit (memory) 32, a sensor unit 34, and a notification unit 36. An operation unit 38 and a battery power source 40 are provided.

  The wireless communication unit 30 is provided with a transmission circuit 42 and a reception circuit 44 so that event signals can be transmitted and received wirelessly between the other residential alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5. As the wireless communication unit 30, in Japan, for example, STD-30 (wireless equipment standard of a low power security system wireless station) or STD-T67 known as a standard of a specific low power wireless station of 400 MHz band. It has a configuration that conforms to the standard for specific low-power radio station telemeters, telecontrol and data transmission radio equipment.

  Of course, the wireless communication unit 30 has contents conforming to the standard of the assigned wireless station in the area in places other than Japan.

  In the memory 32 as a storage unit, a serial number 48 that is a serial number indicating the order of event signals, a transmission source code 50 that becomes an ID (identifier) for identifying each home alarm, and a house as shown in FIG. The group code | symbol 52 for comprising the interlocking | linkage group which performs an interlocking | linkage alarm with the house alarm devices 10-1 to 10-5 is stored.

  The serial number 48 is used to manage event signal relay processing and the like in communication between alarm devices, but will not be described in detail because it is not directly related to the present invention.

  As the transmission source code 50, the number of residential alarms provided in the country is predicted. For example, a 26-bit code code is used so as not to be duplicated as the same code. For example, the serial number of the residential alarm is used.

  The group code 52 is a code that is set in common to a plurality of house alarms constituting the interlocking group, and the group code included in the event signal from another house alarm received by the wireless communication unit 30 is registered in the memory 32. When this event signal matches the group code 52, the event signal is received and processed as a valid signal. Unnecessary interlocking can be avoided.

  The sensor unit 34 is provided with a smoke detector 16 that detects smoke and outputs a signal.

  In addition to the smoke detector 16, the sensor unit 34 may be provided with a temperature detection element such as a thermistor for detecting the temperature due to a fire, and various elements for detecting other physical phenomenon changes associated with the fire.

  The notification unit 36 includes a speaker 58 that outputs an alarm sound and an LED 22 that displays an alarm. The speaker 58 outputs a voice message and an alarm sound from a voice synthesis circuit unit (not shown) via an amplification unit (not shown). The LED 22 displays an abnormality such as a fire by blinking, blinking, or lighting. Instead of the speaker 58, a buzzer or the like may be used.

  The operation unit 38 is provided with an alarm stop switch 20. The alarm stop switch 20 functions as an alarm stop switch only when an alarm sound of a fire or failure is output from the notification unit 36 by the speaker 58 or when an alarm display is performed by the LED 22. For example, if the alarm stop switch 20 is operated during an alarm indicating the interlock source, the alarm sound and the alarm display are continued as they are. On the other hand, if the alarm stop switch 20 is operated during the alarm indicating the interlock destination, the alarm sound is stopped and the alarm is stopped. Alarm stop processing is performed according to the selection state of the mode selection unit, which will be described later, such as display is stopped or continued.

  On the other hand, the alarm stop switch 20 functions as an inspection switch in the normal monitoring state where the alarm indicating the interlocking source or the interlocking destination is not performed. When the alarm stop switch 20 is operated in this state, a predetermined inspection operation is executed and the notification unit From 36, a voice message indicating the inspection result is output.

  When the alarm stop switch 20 is operated during the fault alarm, the fault alarm stop process may be performed after performing a predetermined inspection and informing the result. In this way, for example, the failure alarm stop process is performed after rechecking the sensor failure or the like, so that the user can be more clearly aware of the failure state. If the failure state has been resolved at this time, for example, a message such as “The failure has been resolved” may be output and the process may proceed to the failure stop process.

  Further, referring again to FIG. 9, the mode selection switch 21 is provided in the operation unit 38. The mode selection switch 21 is, for example, a dip switch or other changeover switch, and gives a mode selection instruction to the mode selection unit 70 of the processor 28. The selection of the mode is not necessarily performed by a switch, and can be replaced by an appropriate means such as selecting and setting by communicating with a setting device provided separately.

  The battery power source 40 uses, for example, a lithium battery or an alkaline battery having a predetermined number of cells, and has a battery capacity of, for example, 10 by reducing the power consumption of the entire circuit unit including the wireless communication unit 30 in the residential alarm 10-1. The battery life of the year is guaranteed.

  In the processor 28, functions realized by executing the program include an event detection unit 60, a transmission processing unit 62, a reception processing unit 64, an abnormality alarm processing unit 66, a failure detection unit 68, a failure alarm processing unit 70, and a linkage source stop. An alarm stop unit 72 including a unit 74 and an interlocking destination stop unit 76 is provided.

  The event detection unit 60 detects events such as abnormality detection by the sensor unit 34, alarm stop by the operation unit 38, and abnormality recovery in which the abnormality detection of the sensor unit 34 disappears.

  The transmission processing unit 62 detects a detected event when the event detection unit 60 detects its own event such as abnormality detection by the sensor unit 34, alarm stop and mode switching by the operation unit 38, or abnormality recovery in which the abnormality detection of the sensor unit 34 disappears. Is transmitted from the wireless communication unit 30 to the house police device of the interlocking destination. The reception processing unit 64 receives and decodes the event signal from the residential alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5 via the wireless communication unit 30.

  The abnormality alarm processing unit 66 outputs an alarm sound indicating the interlocking source from the speaker 58 when the event detection unit 60 detects a fire as its own abnormality, and drives the LED 22 to display an alarm indicating the interlocking source. , Send an event signal indicating a fire to other home alarms.

  More specifically, when the event detection unit 66 detects a fire from the smoke detection signal of the smoke detection unit 16 provided in the sensor unit 34, the abnormality alarm processing unit 66 determines the link source from the speaker 58 of the notification unit 36. The alarm sound to be displayed, for example, “Woo Woo fire alarm has been activated Please confirm” is repeatedly output, LED 22 is turned on to display the alarm indicating the interlocking source, and the event signal indicating the fire is transmitted to the wireless communication unit 30. The transmission circuit 42 transmits the signal from the antenna 31 to the other residential alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5.

  In addition, the abnormality alarm processing unit 66 receives an event signal indicating a fire from any of the other dwelling devices 10-2 to 10-5 by the reception circuit 44 of the wireless communication unit 30, and becomes effective in the reception processing unit 64. When the alarm sounds, the alarm sound indicating the link destination is repeatedly output from the speaker 58 of the notification unit 36, for example, “Woo-woo, check that another fire alarm has been activated”, and the LED 22 blinks simultaneously. A warning display is displayed to indicate the destination.

  The failure detection unit 68 detects a sensor failure and a low battery failure. The sensor failure is detected by reading the smoke detection signal output from the smoke detector 16 of the sensor 34 at a predetermined measurement time interval T1, for example, T1 = 1 second by A / D conversion, and holding it in the buffer area of the memory 32. For example, at every predetermined time interval T2 = 10 minutes, an average value of 10 minutes of detection data held in the buffer area of the memory 32 is obtained, and this average value is used as a predetermined reference level (referred to as a zero point level). When the output is lower, it is determined that the sensor unit 16 has a fault because the output is stopped.

  The reason why the 10-minute average value of the smoke concentration detection signal falls below the zero point level in this way may be due to a failure such as disconnection of the light receiving element provided in the smoke detector 16 or stop of the light receiving amplifier. Is expensive. When a temperature detection element such as a thermistor is provided in the sensor unit 16, a sensor failure is determined as a test result by comparing the 10-minute average value of the detection signal with a predetermined disconnection level due to the disconnection.

  Low battery failure is detected by reading the power supply voltage of the battery power supply 40 by A / D conversion at a predetermined measurement time interval T3, for example, T3 = 4 time intervals, and comparing it with a predetermined threshold voltage. The battery failure is determined, and the low battery failure is determined when the determination result of the low battery failure continues for a predetermined number of times.

  When the event detection unit 60 detects a sensor failure or a low battery failure, the failure alarm processing unit 70 indicates a sensor failure or low battery indicating an interlocking source by an alarm sound from the speaker 58 of the notification unit 36 and the first display of the LED 22. A fault alarm is output. In addition, the failure alarm processing unit 70 transmits an event signal indicating a sensor failure or a low battery failure to the other residential alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5, and uses the sensor failure or the low battery failure alarm indicating the link destination as an alarm sound. Let the display do.

  Furthermore, when the failure information processing unit 70 receives an event signal indicating a sensor failure or a low battery failure from the other residential alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5, the alarm information from the notification unit 36 and the first LED 22 A sensor failure or low battery failure alarm indicating the interlocking destination by the second display different from the display is output.

  When the event detection unit 60 detects a sensor failure, the failure alarm processing unit 70 continuously outputs, for example, “pick failure” multiple times as a sensor failure alarm sound indicating the link source (failure source) from the speaker 58 of the notification unit 36. At the same time, the LED 22 is turned on at the same time, and thereafter, the process of outputting the voice “pick failure” and displaying the LED 22 a plurality of times is repeated at regular intervals.

  Further, the failure alarm processing unit 70 transmits an event signal indicating a sensor failure to the other resident alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5, so that the sensor failure alarm indicating the linkage destination is used as an alarm sound. Is output, and at the same time, the LED 22 causes the LED 22 to blink differently from the interlocking source.

  Further, when the event detection unit 60 detects a low battery failure, the failure alarm processing unit 70 uses a speaker 58 of the notification unit 36 as a low battery failure alarm sound indicating the link source (failure source). Is continuously output a plurality of times, for example, the LED 22 is turned on at the same time, and thereafter, the process of performing the display with the LED 22 a plurality of times is repeated every certain time.

  In addition, the failure alarm processing unit 70 transmits an event signal indicating a low battery failure to the other mortgage alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5, so that the low battery failure alarm indicating the linkage destination is used as an alarm sound. "Alarm is out of battery" is output, and at the same time, the LED 22 causes a blinking display different from the interlock source to be performed.

  When the alarm stop unit 72 detects the alarm stop operation of the alarm stop switch 20 provided in the operation unit 38 during the output of the sensor failure or low battery failure alarm, the alarm stop unit 72 is in the first mode, the second mode, or the third mode. Perform one of the alarm stop processes.

  The details are as described above. For the first mode stop process, the stop process shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 is performed. For the second mode stop process, the stop process shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 is performed. For the third mode stop process, the stop process shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 is performed.

  That is, in the embodiment of the first mode stop process, the interlock source alarm stop unit 74 stops the alarm sound indicating its own interlock source when detecting the alarm stop operation during the output of the fault alarm indicating the interlock source. At the same time, the display is continued, and further, an alarm stop signal is transmitted to the alarm device that is outputting the fault alarm indicating the interlocking destination to stop the alarm sound and display.

  The interlocking destination alarm stop unit 76 stops the alarm sound and display indicating its own interlocking destination when detecting an alarm stop operation while outputting a fault alarm indicating the interlocking destination.

  In the embodiment of the second mode stop process, the interlock source alarm stop unit 74 displays an alarm sound and display indicating its own interlock source when detecting an alarm stop operation while outputting a fault alarm indicating the interlock source. Further, an alarm stop signal is transmitted to an alarm device that is outputting a fault alarm indicating the interlocking destination to stop the alarm sound and display.

  The interlocking destination alarm stop unit 76 stops the alarm sound and display indicating its own interlocking destination when detecting an alarm stop operation while outputting a fault alarm indicating the interlocking destination, and further outputs a fault alarm indicating the interlocking source and the interlocking destination. Sends an alarm stop signal to the alarm device in the middle, continues the alarm sound and display of the alarm device that is outputting the fault alarm indicating the link source, and stops the alarm sound and display of the alarm device that is outputting the fault alarm indicating the link destination Let

  Furthermore, in the embodiment of the third mode stop process, the interlock source alarm stop unit 74 stops the alarm sound indicating its own interlock source when detecting an alarm stop operation while outputting a fault alarm indicating the interlock source. At the same time, the display is continued, and further, an alarm stop signal is transmitted to the alarm device that is outputting the fault alarm indicating the interlocking destination to stop the alarm sound and display.

  The interlocking destination alarm stop unit 76 stops the alarm sound and display indicating its own interlocking destination when detecting an alarm stop operation while outputting a fault alarm indicating the interlocking destination, and further outputs a fault alarm indicating the interlocking source and the interlocking destination. The alarm stop signal is sent to the alarm device in the middle, the alarm sound of the alarm device that is outputting the fault alarm indicating the interlock source is stopped and the display is continued, and the alarm sound of the alarm device that is outputting the fault alarm indicating the interlock destination is Stop the display.

  FIG. 10 is an explanatory diagram showing the format of the event signal used in this embodiment. In FIG. 10, the event signal 46 includes a serial number 48, a transmission source code 50, a group code 52, and an event code 54.

  The serial number 48 is a serial number indicating the order of event signals, and is incremented by one each time an event signal is transmitted. In addition, the serial number 48 is generated asynchronously in each of the residential alarm devices 10-1 to 10-5. The serial number 48 is used to manage event signal relay processing and the like in communication between alarm devices, but will not be described in detail because it is not directly related to the present invention.

  The transmission source code 50 is a 26-bit code, for example. The group code 52 is an 8-bit code, for example, and the same group code is set for, for example, the residential alarm devices 10-1 to 10-5 in FIG.

  In addition, as the group code 52, in addition to setting the same group code to the same group of house alarms, a reference code common to the house alarms constituting a predetermined group, and a transmission source unique to each house alarm A different group code may be used for each residential alarm obtained from the calculation with the code.

  The event code 54 is a code representing the event content such as fire and gas leak. In the present embodiment, a 3-bit code is used. For example, “001” indicates a fire, “010” indicates a gas leak, “ “011” indicates a theft, “100” indicates an alarm stop, “101” indicates a recovery, “110” indicates a sensor failure, and “111” indicates a low battery failure. The number of bits of the event code 42 can be further increased to 4 bits and 5 bits to represent more event contents.

  FIG. 11 is a flowchart showing basic processing in the residential alarm 10-1 of FIG. In FIG. 11, when the power supply by the battery power supply 40 of the resident alarm 10-1 is started, initialization and self-diagnosis are executed in step S1, and if there is no abnormality, the process proceeds to step S2 and fire monitoring processing is executed. Subsequently, the process proceeds to step S3 to perform a failure monitoring process, and this is repeated.

  FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing an example of the fire monitoring process in step S <b> 2 of FIG. 11, which is a process by executing a program of the processor 28.

  In FIG. 12, the fire monitoring process monitors the fire in step S11. When the smoke detection signal output from the sensor unit 34 exceeds a predetermined fire level, the fire is detected and the process proceeds to step S12. After transmitting an event signal including a transmission source code, a group code, and an event code indicating a fire to another house alarm device, in step S13, an alarm source from the speaker 58 and an alarm display by turning on the LED 22 are used to determine the link source. The indicated fire alarm is output.

  Subsequently, in step S14, it is determined whether or not there is a fire recovery in which the smoke detection signal from the sensor unit 34 is reduced and the fire disappears. If the fire continues, an alarm stop operation by the alarm stop switch 20 is performed in step S5. If there is no alarm stop operation, the process of determining whether or not an event signal has been received indicating an alarm stop from another residential alarm is repeated in step S16. In addition, while the fire is continuing, the transmission of the event signal indicating the fire is repeated every predetermined time. If there is an alarm stop operation in step S15, an event signal including a serial number, a transmission source code, a group code, and an event code indicating an alarm stop is transmitted to another residential alarm in step S18, and the process proceeds to step S19. move on.

  During the processing cycle of steps S14 to S16, when the smoke detection signal from the sensor unit 34 decreases and the fire disappears, the fire recovery is determined in step S14, and the serial number, the transmission source code, the group code, and the fire recovery are determined in step S17. While transmitting the event signal including the event code shown to the other house alarm, the process proceeds to step S19, the alarm sound indicating the interlocking source is stopped, the display by turning on the LED 22 indicating the interlocking source is continued, and the monitoring state is returned. After determining whether a predetermined delay time has elapsed in step S20, the process proceeds to step S21 to stop the display of the link source.

  If it is determined in step S16 that an alarm stop event signal has been received from another residential alarm device, the process proceeds to step S19 to stop the alarm sound from the speaker 58 indicating the interlocking source and return to the monitoring state. The display is continued. Subsequently, in step S20, it is determined whether or not a predetermined time has elapsed since the alarm stop operation. If it is determined that the predetermined time has elapsed, the process proceeds to step S21 to stop the alarm display by turning on the LED 22 indicating the interlock source.

  In addition, during the period when the predetermined time has not elapsed in step S20, when the alarm stop operation by the alarm stop switch 20 is detected, the continued alarm display may be stopped. When a new fire is detected during this period or when an event signal indicating a fire is received from another resident alarm and becomes valid, the interlock source alarm display is stopped and a new source or destination The process is implemented.

  On the other hand, when the delay time in step S20 is set to a short time that does not cause a problem as an unmonitored period, a new fire occurrence determination is not performed during this period, or a subsequent alarm process is not performed even if a fire is determined. You can also

  If it is not a fire in step S11, it is determined in step S22 whether or not an event signal has been received from another residential alarm. When it is determined that an event signal indicating a fire from another house alarm is detected, the process proceeds to step S23, where an alarm sound output from the speaker 58 and an alarm display by blinking the LED 22 are performed as a fire alarm indicating the interlock destination.

  Next, in step S24, it is determined whether or not an event signal indicating a fire recovery from another house alarm is received, and when an event signal indicating a fire recovery is received, the process proceeds to step S25 and the speaker 58 indicating the link destination is received. The alarm display by the alarm sound and blinking of the LED 22 is stopped.

  If no event signal indicating a fire recovery is received in step S24, it is checked in step S26 whether an event signal indicating an alarm stop from another house alarm is received, and an event signal indicating an alarm stop is received. If it discriminate | determines, it will progress to step S28 and will stop the alarm display by the alarm sound from the speaker 58 which shows an interlocking | linkage destination, and blinking of LED22.

  If no event signal indicating an alarm stop is received in step S26, it is determined in step S27 whether or not an alarm stop operation is performed by the alarm stop switch 20, and if an alarm stop operation is determined, the process proceeds to step S28, where the serial number, An event signal including a transmission source code, a group code, and an event code indicating a fire recovery is transmitted to the other house alarm device, and an alarm sound from the speaker 58 indicating the interlocking destination and blinking of the LED 22 are stopped in step S29. . Step S28 may be the same processing as steps S19 to S21. Naturally, in this case, instead of the alarm as the interlock source in steps S19 and S21, the alarm as the interlock destination becomes the control target.

  FIG. 13 is a flowchart showing an example of the case where the first mode alarm stop process is applied as the failure monitoring process in step S3 of FIG. Although sensor failure and low battery failure are monitored, a case where a low battery failure occurs will be described as an example.

  In FIG. 13, the failure monitoring process monitors the occurrence of a low battery failure in step S31. If a low battery failure has occurred, the failure monitoring process determines this and proceeds to step S32, where the serial number, source code, group After the event signal including the code and the event code indicating the low battery failure is wirelessly transmitted to another house alarm device, the low battery failure indicating the interlocking source by the alarm sound from the speaker 58 and the alarm display by turning on the LED 22 in step S33 Output an alarm.

  Note that while the low battery failure continues, the alarm output indicating the low battery failure and the transmission of the failure event signal are repeated every predetermined time. Here, the LEDs 22 are shared for display in the case of a fire and a failure, but the LEDs can be provided separately or the display colors can be different.

  Subsequently, in step S34, it is determined whether or not there is a failure recovery that eliminates the low battery failure due to erroneous detection or the like. If the low battery failure continues, the presence or absence of an alarm stop operation by the alarm stop switch 20 is determined in step S35. If there is no alarm stop operation, the process of determining whether or not an alarm stop event signal has been received from another residential alarm is repeated in step S36.

  When the low battery failure is resolved during the processing cycle of steps S34 to S36, the failure recovery is determined in step S34, and in step S37, an event signal including a serial number, a transmission source code, a group code, and an event code indicating recovery is sent to another event signal. The information is transmitted to the home alarm, and the process proceeds to step S39 to stop the interlocking source alarm sound output, and the display continues and proceeds to step S40. When it is determined in step S40 that the predetermined time has elapsed, the display is stopped and the normal monitoring state is restored.

  Instead of determining whether the predetermined time has elapsed in step S40, the presence or absence of an alarm stop operation by the alarm stop switch 20 may be determined, and when the alarm stop operation is detected, the continued alarm display may be stopped. In the case of failure recovery, after the step S37, the interlocking source alarm sound and the alarm display may be stopped to return to the normal monitoring state.

  If it is determined in step S36 that an alarm stop event signal has been received from another house alarm (interlocking destination), the process proceeds to step S39, and an alarm sound from the speaker 58 indicating the interlocking source is output when a low battery alarm is output every predetermined time. Is stopped, but the alarm display by turning on the LED 22 is continued. However, in the first mode alarm stop process, as shown in FIG. 4, even if the alarm stop operation is performed at the interlocking destination, the event signal indicating the alarm stop is not transmitted, and therefore, from step S36 to step S39. The forward process is not executed.

  On the other hand, if it is not a failure in step S31, it is determined in step S42 whether or not an event signal has been received from another residential alarm. When it is determined that an event signal indicating a low battery failure from another house alarm is determined, an alarm sound is output from the speaker 58 as a failure alarm indicating the link destination in step S43, and an alarm is displayed by blinking the LED 22.

  Note that an event signal indicating a low battery failure from another resident alarm is transmitted when the linking alarm source outputs a failure alarm every predetermined time. An event signal indicating a failure is received and a failure alarm indicating the link destination is output.

  Next, in step S44, it is determined whether or not an event signal indicating failure recovery from another house alarm is received. When an event signal indicating failure recovery is received, the process proceeds to step S45, where an event signal indicating a low battery failure is received. The alarm display by the alarm sound from the speaker 58 and the blinking of the LED 22 indicating the interlocking destination performed every reception is stopped.

  If no event signal indicating failure recovery is received in step S44, it is checked in step S46 whether an event signal indicating alarm stop from the interlocking home alarm device is received. Here, in the first mode stop process, the alarm stop event signal is not transmitted in the interlock destination stop operation, but the alarm stop event signal is transmitted only in the interlock source stop operation. In this case, only the event signal indicating the alarm stop from the transmission source is discriminated. Whether or not the signal is from the interlock source can be determined from the source code included in the event signal. Further, a code indicating whether or not the event code is a linkage source may be added separately.

  If it is determined in step S46 that the event signal indicating the alarm stop from the interlocking source is received, the process proceeds to step S48, and the alarm sound from the speaker 58 indicating the interlocking destination and the blinking of the LED 22 performed every time the event signal indicating the low battery failure is received. The alarm display by is stopped.

  If no event signal indicating an alarm stop from the interlocking source is received in step S46, it is determined in step S47 whether or not an alarm stop operation has been performed by the alarm stop switch 20, and if an alarm stop operation is determined, the process proceeds to step S48. When the event signal indicating the low battery failure is received, the alarm sound from the speaker 58 indicating the interlocking destination and the flashing of the LED 22 are stopped.

  Here, an example is shown in which both the alarm sound indicating the interlocking destination and the alarm display are stopped in step S48. However, as in steps S39 to S41, the display is continued and the alarm display is stopped after a predetermined time has elapsed. Also good. Alternatively, the alarm display may not be stopped until an alarm stop or recovery event signal is received from the link source.

  FIG. 14 is a flowchart showing an example of the case where the second mode alarm stop process is applied as the failure monitoring process in step S3 of FIG. Although sensor failure and low battery failure are monitored, a case where a low battery failure occurs will be described as an example.

  In FIG. 14, the failure monitoring process monitors the occurrence of a failure in step S51. When it is determined that a low battery failure has occurred, the process proceeds to step S52, where a serial number, a transmission source code, a group code, and an event code indicating a low battery failure are detected. After the event signal including is wirelessly transmitted to the other house alarm device, in step S53, a low battery failure alarm indicating the link source is output by an alarm sound from the speaker 58 and an alarm display by turning on the LED 22.

  Note that while the low battery failure continues, the alarm output indicating the low battery failure and the transmission of the failure event signal are repeated every predetermined time.

  Subsequently, in step S54, it is determined whether or not there is a failure recovery that eliminates a low battery failure caused by a malfunction. If the low battery failure continues, whether or not an alarm stop operation is performed by the alarm stop switch 20 in step S55. If there is no alarm stop operation, the process of determining whether or not an alarm stop event signal has been received from another residential alarm is repeated in step S56.

  When the low battery failure is resolved during the processing cycle of steps S54 to S56, the failure recovery is determined in step S54. In step S57, an event signal including a serial number, a transmission source code, a group code, and an event code indicating recovery is sent to another event signal. The alarm is transmitted to the home alarm, and the process proceeds to step S61 to stop the alarm sound indicating the interlocking source and continue the alarm display. The process proceeds to step S60 to determine the elapse of a predetermined time, and the alarm display is stopped in S61. Return to the monitoring state.

  If it is determined in step S55 that the alarm stop operation of the self (interlocking source) is performed by the alarm stop switch 20, the process proceeds to step S58, and an event signal including a serial number, a transmission source code, a group code, and an event code indicating an alarm stop is sent to another address. The alarm is transmitted to the alarm device (link destination), the process proceeds to step S59, the alarm sound from the speaker 58 indicating the link source is stopped, and the alarm display by turning on the LED 22 is continued.

  If it is determined in step S56 that an alarm stop event signal has been received from another house alarm (interlocking destination), the process proceeds to step S59 to stop the alarm sound from the speaker 58 indicating the interlock source, and display an alarm display by turning on the LED 22. continue.

  In this embodiment, the alarm display indicating the interlocking source that is continued in the event signal reception indicating the alarm stop operation of the self (interlocking source) or the alarm stop from another dwelling device (interlocking destination) in step S59 is in this embodiment. When the elapse of the predetermined time is determined in step S60, the process proceeds to step S61, and the alarm display indicating the continuing link source is stopped.

  In addition, when the alarm stop operation by the alarm stop switch 20 is detected again while determining whether the alarm stop operation or the event signal indicating the alarm stop has elapsed in step S60, the alarm sound indicating the interlock source The alarm display may be stopped.

  On the other hand, if no failure has occurred in step S61, it is determined in step S62 whether or not an event signal has been received from another home alarm. When it is determined that an event signal indicating a low battery failure has been received from another house alarm device, the process proceeds to step S63, where an alarm sound output from the speaker 58 is output as a failure alarm indicating a linkage destination to be performed each time an event signal indicating a low battery failure is received. Alarm display by blinking LED22.

  Next, in step S64, it is determined whether or not an event signal indicating failure recovery from another residential alarm is received, and when an event signal indicating failure recovery is received, the process proceeds to step S65 and is performed as a linked destination alarm. The alarm display by the alarm sound from the speaker 58 and the blinking of the LED 22 is stopped.

  If no event signal indicating failure recovery is received in step S64, it is checked in step S66 whether or not an event signal indicating an alarm stop has been received from another residential alarm, and an event signal indicating an alarm stop is received. If it discriminate | determines, it will progress to step S69 and will stop the alarm sound from the speaker 58 as an interlocking | linkage destination performed whenever it receives the event signal which shows a low battery failure, and also stops the alarm display by blinking of LED22.

  If no event signal indicating an alarm stop is received in step S66, it is determined in step S67 whether or not an alarm stop operation has been performed by the alarm stop switch 20, and if the own alarm stop operation is determined, a serial number is determined in step S68. After transmitting an event signal including a transmission source code, a group code, and an event code indicating an alarm stop to another residential alarm device, the process proceeds to step S69, and a speaker indicating an interlock destination to be performed each time an event signal indicating a low battery failure is received The alarm sound from 58 is stopped, and the alarm display by the blinking of the LED 22 is stopped.

  FIG. 15 is a flowchart showing an example of the case where the third mode alarm stop process is applied as the failure monitoring process in step S3 of FIG. Although sensor failure and low battery failure are monitored, a case where a low battery failure occurs will be described as an example.

  In FIG. 15, the failure monitoring process monitors the occurrence of a failure in step S71. For example, if it is determined that a low battery failure has occurred, the process proceeds to step S72, and an event indicating a serial number, a transmission source code, a group code, and a low battery failure is performed. After the event signal including the code is wirelessly transmitted to the other residential alarm device, in step S73, a low battery failure alarm indicating the link source is output by an alarm sound from the speaker 58 and an alarm display by lighting the LED 22.

  Note that while the low battery failure continues, the alarm output indicating the low battery failure and the transmission of the failure event signal are repeated every predetermined time.

  Subsequently, in step S74, it is determined whether or not the low battery failure is recovered. If the low battery failure continues, in step S75, it is determined whether or not the alarm stop operation is performed by the alarm stop switch 20, and the alarm stop operation is performed. If there is not, the process which discriminate | determines the presence or absence of reception of the event signal of the alarm stop from another housing alarm is repeated by step S76. In addition, while the fire is continuing, the transmission of the event signal indicating the fire is repeated every predetermined time.

  If the low battery failure is resolved during the processing cycle of steps S74 to S76, failure recovery is determined in step S74, and an event including an event code indicating serial number, transmission source code, group code, and failure recovery in step S77. A signal is transmitted to the other house alarm device, the process proceeds to step S79, the alarm sound indicating the interlocking source is stopped, and the alarm display is continued. Instead of stopping the alarm sound of the interlocking source and continuing the alarm display in step S79, the alarm sound of the interlocking source and the alarm display may be stopped to return to the normal monitoring state.

  If it is determined in step S75 that the alarm stop operation of the self (interlocking source) is to be performed by the alarm stop switch 20, the process proceeds to step S78, and an event signal including a serial number, a transmission source code, a group code, and an event code indicating an alarm stop is sent to another address. The alarm is transmitted to the alarm device (link destination), the process proceeds to step S79, the alarm sound from the speaker 58 indicating the link source is stopped, and the alarm display by turning on the LED 22 is continued.

  If it is determined in step S76 that an alarm stop event signal has been received from another house alarm (interlocking destination), the process proceeds to step S79 to stop the alarm sound from the speaker 58 indicating the interlocking source, and display an alarm by turning on the LED 22. Continue.

  In this embodiment, the alarm display indicating the interlocking source continued by the event signal indicating the alarm stop operation of its own in step S79 or the alarm stop from other dwelling devices is displayed for a predetermined time in step S80. When the progress is determined, the process proceeds to step S81 and stops.

  It should be noted that the alarm display indicating the interlocking source may be stopped when the alarm stop operation by the alarm stop switch 20 is detected again instead of the elapse of the predetermined time by the timer setting in step S80.

  On the other hand, if no failure has occurred in step S71, it is determined in step S82 whether or not an event signal has been received from another residential alarm. When it is determined that an event signal indicating a low battery failure from another house alarm is determined, the process proceeds to step S83, where an alarm sound from the speaker 58 and a flashing LED 22 are displayed as a low battery failure alarm indicating the interlocking destination.

  Next, in step S84, it is determined whether or not an event signal indicating failure recovery from another house alarm is received. When an event signal indicating failure recovery is received, the process proceeds to step S85, where an event signal indicating a low battery failure is received. The alarm display by the alarm sound from the speaker 58 and the blinking of the LED 22 indicating the interlocking destination performed every reception is stopped.

  If no event signal indicating failure recovery is received in step S84, it is checked in step S86 whether or not an event signal has been received indicating that an alarm has been stopped from another residential alarm, and an event signal indicating that the alarm has been stopped is received. If it discriminate | determines, it will progress to step S88 and will stop the alarm display by the alarm sound from the speaker 58 which shows the interlocking | linkage destination performed every time the event signal which shows a low battery failure, and blinking of LED22.

  If no event signal indicating alarm stop is received in step S86, the presence or absence of an alarm stop operation by the alarm stop switch 20 is determined in step S87. If the alarm stop operation is determined, a serial number and a transmission source code are determined in step S88. After transmitting the event signal including the event code indicating the group code and the alarm stop to the other house alarm device, the process proceeds to step S89, and the speaker 58 indicating the interlock destination to be performed every time the event signal indicating the low battery failure is received. The alarm display by the alarm sound and blinking of the LED 22 is stopped.

  FIG. 16 is an explanatory view showing another embodiment of the wireless residential alarm according to the present invention in which the display color of the interlocking source is different from the display color of the interlocking destination.

  In FIG. 16, the house alarm 10 is composed of a cover 12 and a main body behind the cover 12. A smoke inflow opening is opened around the center of the cover 12, and a smoke detector 16 is disposed inside the smoke detector. An acoustic hole 18 is provided on the lower left side of the part 16, and an alarm stop switch 20 is provided on the lower side of the smoke detector 16.

  The alarm stop switch 20 has a tact switch (not shown) arranged inside a switch cover formed of a translucent member, and in the vicinity of the tact switch inside the switch cover, as shown by a dotted line, The red LED 22a for displaying the alarm and the yellow LED 22b for displaying the alarm of the interlocking destination are arranged. When the red LED 22a or the yellow LED 22b is lit, the lighting state is transmitted from the outside through the switch cover portion of the alarm stop switch 20. I understand it. The other configuration is the same as that of the embodiment of FIG.

  16 is basically the same as the block diagram of FIG. 9, and the notification unit 36 is provided with a red LED 22a and a yellow LED 22b for displaying an alarm of the interlocking source as shown in FIG. It is different in point. In the present embodiment, the case where the red LED 22a and the yellow LED 22b are separately provided is shown, but a two-color LED integrally including the red LED and the yellow LED may be used.

  As in FIG. 1, the alarm stop process of the residential alarm shown in the embodiment of FIG. 16 includes a first mode stop process, a second mode stop process, and a third mode stop process. Each mode stop process differs depending on whether the stop operation is performed at the interlocking source or the stop operation is performed at the interlocking destination.

  FIG. 17 shows the alarm control before and after the stop operation is performed at the interlock source for the failure alarm in the first mode alarm stop process for the embodiment of FIG. FIG. 17 (A) is before the alarm is stopped, and the residential alarm device 10-1 among the interlocked relationship alarm devices 10-1 to 10-5 detects, for example, a low battery failure and the residential alarm device 10-1. Gives a warning alarm indicating the source of the linkage by displaying an alarm sound “battery exhausted” and the red LED 22a being lit (first display), for example, and the remaining residence alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5 "The alarm device is out of battery", a failure alarm indicating the interlocking destination is given by an alarm display by, for example, lighting (second display) of the yellow LED 22b.

  Note that the fire alarm indicating the interlock source by the alarm display by the red LED 22a and the fire alarm indicating the interlock destination by the alarm display by the yellow LED 22b may be blinking or blinking in addition to lighting.

  When the alarm stop switch 20 provided in the interlocking home alarm device 10-1 is operated as indicated by an arrow A in the interlocked state of the fault alarm, the alarm stop operation is performed as shown in FIG. The interlocking home resident alarm 10-1 stops the alarm sound indicating the interlocking source, but the alarm display by turning on the red LED 22a indicating the interlocking source (first display) is continued for at least a predetermined period. .

  Further, the interlocking home police device 10-1 transmits an event signal indicating the alarm stop to the interlocking destination home police devices 10-2 to 10-5 in response to the alarm stop operation. For this reason, the interlocking destination home alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5 stop the alarm display of the failure alarm sound indicating the interlocking destination and the lighting of the yellow LED 22b.

  Thus, when a fault interlocking alarm is issued, the alarm of the interlocking source home alarm device 10-1 is not required even if the alarm stop operation is not performed by going to the location where the interlocking home alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5 are installed. The interlocking destination alarm can be stopped by the stop operation, and the stop operation can be performed easily and easily.

  Moreover, even if all the alarm sounds are stopped by the alarm stop operation in the interlocking source alarm device 10-1, the alarm display by, for example, lighting of the red LED 22a in the interlocking source alarm device 10-1 is continued for at least a predetermined period. It is possible to easily and reliably identify the home alarm device causing the battery failure.

  The alarm display by the red LED 22a of the interlocking home resident alarm 10-1 continuing after the alarm stop is stopped after a lapse of a predetermined time determined by the timer setting, or is again performed by the interlocking source resident alarm 10-1. Stops when an alarm stop operation is performed.

  FIG. 18 shows the alarm control before and after the stop operation is performed at the interlock destination for the failure alarm in the first mode alarm stop process for the embodiment of FIG. FIG. 18A shows a state before the alarm is stopped, and the home alarm device 10-1 detects, for example, a low battery failure, and an alarm sound is displayed by, for example, lighting (first display) of the red LED 22a. A failure alarm indicating the interlocking source is performed, and the remaining dwelling devices 10-2 to 10-5 are audibly alerted by an alarm display by, for example, lighting (second display) of the yellow LED 22a. A failure alarm indicating the link destination is provided.

  When the alarm stop switch 20 provided in the interlocking home alarm device 10-2 is operated as indicated by an arrow B in the interlocked state of the fault alarm, the alarm stop operation is performed as shown in FIG. 18 (B). The interlocked house alarm device 10-2 that has been performed stops the alarm sound indicating the interlocking destination and the display of the yellow LED 22b, but an alarm stop event signal for the other housing alarm devices 10-1, 10-3 to 10-5. Does not transmit, so the alarm sound and display continue.

  As described above, in the first mode, the failure alarm stop operation at the interlocking destination only stops the alarm sound and display only of the house alarm device that performed the stop operation.

  FIG. 19 shows the alarm control before and after the stop operation is performed at the interlock source for the failure alarm in the second mode alarm stop process for the embodiment of FIG. FIG. 19 (A) is before the alarm is stopped, and the residential alarm device 10-1 among the interlocked relationship alarm devices 10-1 to 10-5 detects, for example, a low battery failure, and the residential alarm device 10-1. The warning sound “Battery exhausted” is displayed, for example, the red LED 22 is lit (first display), and a failure alarm indicating the link source is given, and the remaining residence alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5 "The alarm device is out of battery." Yellow LED 22 This is a failure alarm indicating the interlocking destination by, for example, an alarm display by lighting (second display).

  When the alarm stop switch 20 provided in the interlocking home alarm device 10-1 is operated as indicated by an arrow A in the interlocked state of the fault alarm, the alarm stop operation is performed as shown in FIG. The interlocking home resident alarm 10-1 stops the alarm sound indicating the interlocking source, but the alarm display by turning on the red LED 22a indicating the interlocking source (first display) is continued for at least a predetermined period. .

  Further, the interlocking home police device 10-1 transmits an event signal indicating the alarm stop to the interlocking destination home police devices 10-2 to 10-5 in response to the alarm stop operation. For this reason, the interlocking residence alarm devices 10-2 to 10-5 stop the alarm display indicating the interlocking destination and the warning display by turning on the yellow LED 22a.

  FIG. 20 shows the alarm control before and after the stop operation is performed at the interlock destination for the failure alarm in the second mode alarm stop process for the embodiment of FIG. FIG. 20 (A) is before the alarm is stopped. For example, the resident alarm device 10-1 detects a low battery failure and displays an alarm sound “battery exhausted” and an alarm display by, for example, lighting (first display) of the red LED 22a. A failure alarm indicating the interlocking source is performed, and the remaining dwelling devices 10-2 to 10-5 are audible with an alarm sound, for example, by turning on the yellow LED 22b (second display). A failure alarm indicating the link destination is provided.

  When the alarm stop switch 20 provided in the interlocking destination home alarm device 10-2 is operated as indicated by an arrow B in the interlocked state of the fault alarm, the alarm stop operation is performed as shown in FIG. The interlocked house police 10-2 performed stops the alarm sound indicating the interlocked destination and the display by turning on the yellow LED 22b, and the alarm is stopped for the other house policers 10-1, 10-3 to 10-5. Send an event signal. For this reason, although the interlocking residence police device 10-3 to 10-5 stops the alarm sound and display, the interlocking source residence police device 10-1 lights up the red LED 22a indicating the alarm sound and the interlocking source (first 1 Display) continues at least for a predetermined period.

  When an interlocking alarm is performed in this way, it is not necessary to go to the place where the residence guards 10-1 to 10-5 are installed and perform an alarm stop operation. By the alarm stop operation of the alarm device, the alarm sound of the interlocking source and the alarm display by the red LED 22a are not stopped, and the alarm sound of the interlocking destination and the alarm display by the yellow LED 22b can all be stopped, and the stop operation is simple and easy. it can.

  Moreover, even if the alarm stop operation is performed with an arbitrary residential alarm, the alarm sound in the interlocking source alarm device 10-1 and the alarm display by, for example, lighting of the red LED 22a are continued and installed at a place away from the interlocking source. Even if the linked alarm device is still connected, it is possible to know that the interlocking source is still in trouble alarm, and it is easy to identify the faulty home alarm device by replacing the battery or replacing the home alarm device itself. You can take action.

  The alarm display by the red LED 22a of the interlocking home resident alarm 10-1 continuing after the alarm stop is stopped when a predetermined time determined by the timer setting elapses or when an alarm stop operation is performed.

  In this case, while the alarm sound of the interlocking source continues, the display by lighting the yellow LED 22 of the interlocking destination can be prevented from stopping.
