Description

この発明は、制御盤に配設されている操作スイッチに関し、特に、操作スイッチの状態をわかりやすくする操作スイッチ用アダプタに関する。 The present invention relates to an operation switch disposed on the control panel, in particular, it relates to adapters for operating switch of clarity the state of the operation switch.

発電所の制御盤には、各機器を操作・制御するための操作スイッチ（ＣＳ）が配設されている。この操作スイッチ１は、図５に示すように、制御盤の盤面１０１に対して出し入れ自在なスイッチで、例えば、図５（ａ）に示すように、押し入れた状態で機器が自動制御され、図５（ｂ）に示すように、引き出した状態で自動制御がロック・解除されるようになっている。このような操作スイッチ１が複数配設され、図６に示すように、押し入れた状態（押し自動状態）の操作スイッチ１と、引き出した状態（引きロック状態）の操作スイッチ１とが混在している。 The control panel of the power plant is provided with operation switches (CS) for operating and controlling each device. As shown in FIG. 5, the operation switch 1 is a switch that can be inserted into and removed from the panel surface 101 of the control panel. For example, as shown in FIG. 5A, the device is automatically controlled in the pushed state, As shown in FIG. 5(b), the automatic control is locked/released in the pulled-out state. A plurality of such operation switches 1 are provided, and as shown in FIG. 6, the operation switch 1 in the pushed-in state (push automatic state) and the operation switch 1 in the pulled-out state (pull lock state) are mixed. There is.

一方、操作盤の非常用押しボタンスイッチが有効に機能しているか否かを、作業者が容易に把握できるようにしたスイッチが知られている（例えば、特許文献１参照。）。このスイッチは、操作ボタンの押し込み操作によって所定回路に接続されるスイッチ接点を備える。そして、スイッチ接点が所定回路に接続されている場合に、操作ボタンを所定色で発光させ、スイッチ接点が所定回路に接続されていない場合に、操作ボタンを非発光状態とするものである。 On the other hand, there is known a switch that allows an operator to easily grasp whether or not the emergency push button switch on the operation panel is effectively functioning (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). This switch has a switch contact that is connected to a predetermined circuit by pressing the operation button. Then, when the switch contact is connected to the predetermined circuit, the operation button is caused to emit light of a predetermined color, and when the switch contact is not connected to the predetermined circuit, the operation button is set to the non-emission state.

ところで、発電所の制御盤に対して起動操作や停止操作などの一連の操作を完了した場合、オペレータは操作スイッチ１の状態を確認している。つまり、各操作スイッチ１が正しく押し自動状態にあるか引きロック状態にあるかをチェックしている。しかしながら、押し自動状態か引きロック状態かの判別は、制御盤の盤面１０１からの操作スイッチ１の突出量だけで行わなければならないため、判別がし難く、誤操作や復旧忘れが生じるおそれがある。 By the way, the operator confirms the state of the operation switch 1 when a series of operations such as a start operation and a stop operation are completed on the control panel of the power plant. That is, it is checked whether each operation switch 1 is correctly in the push automatic state or the pull lock state. However, since it is necessary to determine whether the automatic push state or the pull lock state is based on the amount of protrusion of the operation switch 1 from the panel surface 101 of the control panel, it is difficult to make the determination, and there is a possibility that erroneous operation or forgetting to restore may occur.

また、特許文献１の技術では、所定回路やスイッチ接点、光源などを備える必要があり、構成が複雑になるばかりでなく、既存・既設の操作スイッチに適用することが容易ではない。 Further, the technique of Patent Document 1 needs to include a predetermined circuit, a switch contact, a light source, and the like, which not only complicates the configuration but also is not easy to apply to an existing/existing operation switch.

そこでこの発明は、構成が簡易で、操作スイッチの状態を容易かつ確実に判別可能にする制御盤の操作スイッチ用アダプタを提供することを目的とする。 Therefore the present invention is constituted is simplified, and an object thereof is to provide a control panel of the operation switch adapter that allows determining the state of the operation switch easily and reliably.

上記課題を解決するために、請求項１の発明は、制御盤の盤面に対して押し入れたり引き出したりする操作スイッチの状態を識別するための、制御盤の操作スイッチ用アダプタであって、前記盤面に対して出入りする前記操作スイッチの主軸において、押し入れた状態で前記盤面から露出する部位を押し入れ時露出部、露出しない部位を押し入れ時非露出部とし、前記押し入れ時露出部の外周面を覆うように装着可能で、表面が前記押し入れ時非露出部の表面色と異なる色彩となっており、前記押し入れ時露出部の外周面を覆うように取り付けられる、ことを特徴とする。 In order to solve the above problems, the invention of claim 1 is an operation switch adapter for a control panel for identifying the state of an operation switch that is pushed in or pulled out of the panel surface of the control panel. With respect to the main shaft of the operation switch that moves in and out, the part exposed from the board surface in the pushed state is an exposed part when pushed in, the unexposed part is a non-exposed part when pushed in, and covers the outer peripheral surface of the exposed part when pushed. The surface of the non-exposed portion is different from the surface color of the non-exposed portion at the time of pressing and is attached so as to cover the outer peripheral surface of the exposed portion at the time of pressing .

請求項２の発明は、請求項１に記載の制御盤の操作スイッチ用アダプタにおいて、変形自在な材料で構成された筒状で、軸方向に沿った開口部を有し、該開口部から前記主軸を筒内に収容するようにして装着可能となっており、着脱自在に装着したことを特徴とする。
According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the operation switch adapter of the control panel according to the first aspect, the tubular switch is formed of a deformable material, and has an opening along an axial direction, and the opening is formed from the opening. The main shaft can be mounted so as to be housed in a cylinder, and is characterized by being detachably mounted.

請求項１の発明によれば、操作スイッチの主軸の押し入れ時露出部に本操作スイッチ用アダプタを装着すると、押し入れた操作スイッチでは、盤面から本操作スイッチ用アダプタのみが露出し、引き出した操作スイッチでは、盤面から押し入れ時非露出部も露出する。そして、本操作スイッチ用アダプタと押し入れ時非露出部の表面色が異なるため、押し入れ時非露出部の表面色が見えないか見えるかによって、操作スイッチが押し入れられているか引き出されているかを、容易に（一目で）かつ確実に判別することが可能となる。この結果、誤操作や復旧忘れを防止することができる。 According to the first aspect of the present invention, when the main operation switch adapter is attached to the exposed portion of the main shaft of the operation switch when the main switch is pushed in, only the main operation switch adapter is exposed from the board surface of the pushed operation switch, and the operation switch is pulled out. Then, the non-exposed part is also exposed when it is pushed in from the board surface. Since the surface color of the adapter for this operation switch and the surface of the non-exposed part when pushed in are different, it is easy to determine whether the operation switch is pushed in or pulled out depending on whether the surface color of the unexposed part when pushed in is visible or visible. It becomes possible (at a glance) and surely to discriminate. As a result, it is possible to prevent erroneous operations and forgetting to recover.

しかも、本操作スイッチ用アダプタを主軸の押し入れ時露出部に装着するだけでよいため、構成が簡易で、既存・既設の操作スイッチに容易かつ確実に適用することが可能である。 Moreover, since this operation switch adapter only needs to be attached to the exposed portion when the main shaft is pushed in, the configuration is simple and can be applied to existing/existing operation switches easily and reliably.

請求項２の発明によれば、操作スイッチ用アダプタが変形自在な筒状で構成され、軸方向に沿った開口部を有するだけであるため、構成が簡易で、製作費を低減することができる。しかも、開口部から主軸を筒内に収容するだけで操作スイッチ用アダプタを装着可能なため、容易かつ迅速に操作スイッチ用アダプタを装着することができ、操作スイッチに着脱自在に装着したので、既存・既設の操作スイッチに容易かつ確実に適用することが可能である。 According to the invention of claim 2, since the operation switch adapter is formed in a deformable tubular shape and only has an opening along the axial direction, the structure is simple and the manufacturing cost can be reduced. .. Moreover, since only by accommodating the spindle into the cylinder from the opening can be mounted to the adapter for operating the switch, Ki de be mounted easily and quickly operated switch adapter, since detachably mounted on the operation switch, It can be easily and reliably applied to existing and existing operation switches.

以下、この発明を図示の実施の形態に基づいて説明する。 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described based on the illustrated embodiments.

（実施の形態１）
図１は、この実施の形態に係る制御盤の操作スイッチ用アダプタ２を装着した操作スイッチ１を示す正面図であり、（ａ）は、操作スイッチ１を押し入れた状態を示し、（ｂ）は、操作スイッチ１を引き出した状態を示す。この操作スイッチ用アダプタ２は、操作スイッチ１が押し入れられた状態であるか引き出された状態であるかを、容易に識別するためのアダプタである。 (Embodiment 1)
FIG. 1 is a front view showing an operation switch 1 equipped with an operation switch adapter 2 of a control panel according to this embodiment. FIG. 1A shows a state in which the operation switch 1 is pushed in, and FIG. , Shows a state in which the operation switch 1 is pulled out. The operation switch adapter 2 is an adapter for easily identifying whether the operation switch 1 is in the pushed-in state or the pulled-out state.

ここで、まず、操作スイッチ１について説明すると、操作スイッチ１は、発電所の制御盤に配設され、各機器を操作・制御するためのスイッチである。この操作スイッチ１は、図５に示すように、制御盤の盤面１０１に対して押し入れたり引き出したりするスイッチで、図５（ａ）に示すように、押し入れた状態で機器が自動制御され、図５（ｂ）に示すように、引き出した状態で自動制御がロック・解除されるようになっている。 First, the operation switch 1 will be described. The operation switch 1 is a switch that is disposed on the control panel of the power plant and operates/controls each device. As shown in FIG. 5, the operation switch 1 is a switch that pushes in and pulls out from the panel surface 101 of the control panel. As shown in FIG. 5A, the device is automatically controlled in the pushed state, As shown in FIG. 5(b), the automatic control is locked/released in the pulled-out state.

この操作スイッチ１は、円柱状で一端側（下端側）が盤面１０１に挿入された主軸１１を備え、この主軸１１が盤面１０１に対して軸方向に出入りするようになっている。また、この主軸１１の他端側（上端側）に円筒状の連結部１２が設けられ、さらに、連結部１２の反主軸１１側（上側）に、オペレータが把持するハンドル部１３が設けられている。この主軸１１は、金属製で表面色が略銀色となっており、連結部１２と把持部１３は、樹脂製で表面色が略茶色となっている。また、この実施の形態では、盤面１０１の表面に平板状のカバー１０２が着脱自在に配設され、このカバー１０２と盤面１０１を主軸１１が貫通している。 The operation switch 1 is provided with a main shaft 11 having a columnar shape and one end side (lower end side) thereof being inserted into the board surface 101, and the main shaft 11 is adapted to move in and out of the board surface 101 in the axial direction. A cylindrical connecting portion 12 is provided on the other end side (upper end side) of the main shaft 11, and a handle portion 13 to be gripped by an operator is provided on the opposite main shaft 11 side (upper side) of the connecting part 12. There is. The main shaft 11 is made of metal and has a substantially silver surface color, and the connecting portion 12 and the grip portion 13 are made of resin and has a substantially brown surface color. Further, in this embodiment, a flat plate-shaped cover 102 is detachably provided on the surface of the board surface 101, and the main shaft 11 penetrates the cover 102 and the board surface 101.

ここで、主軸１１は、一部（根元側）のみが盤面１０１から出入りし、この主軸１１において、押し入れた状態で、盤面１０１（カバー１０２）から露出する部位を押し入れ時露出部１１ａとし、盤面１０１から露出しない部位を押し入れ時非露出部１１ｂとする。すなわち、押し入れ時非露出部１１ｂは、主軸１１の根元側（盤面１０１側）の部分であり、操作スイッチ１を押し入れた際に、図５（ａ）に示すように、盤面１０１内に挿入され、操作スイッチ１を引き出した際に、図５（ｂ）に示すように、盤面１０１から突出・露出する。一方、押し入れ時露出部１１ａは、押し入れ時非露出部１１ｂに隣接し主軸１１の反盤面１０１側（上側）の部分であり、図５（ａ）、（ｂ）に示すように、操作スイッチ１を押し入れても盤面１０１内に挿入されない部分、つまり、常に盤面１０１から突出・露出する部分である。 Here, only a part (base side) of the main shaft 11 comes in and goes out from the board surface 101, and in this main shaft 11, in a pushed-in state, a portion exposed from the board surface 101 (cover 102) is referred to as a press-in exposed portion 11a. A portion that is not exposed from 101 is a non-exposed portion 11b when being pushed in. That is, the non-exposed portion 11b at the time of pushing-in is a portion on the base side (board 101 side) of the spindle 11, and when the operation switch 1 is pushed in, it is inserted into the board 101 as shown in FIG. 5(a). When the operation switch 1 is pulled out, as shown in FIG. 5B, it is projected/exposed from the board surface 101. On the other hand, the exposed portion 11a at the time of pushing in is a portion adjacent to the non-exposed portion 11b at the time of pushing in and on the side opposite to the disc surface 101 of the main shaft 11 (upper side), and as shown in FIGS. Is a portion which is not inserted into the board surface 101 even if is pushed in, that is, a portion which is always projected and exposed from the board surface 101.

操作スイッチ用アダプタ２は、主軸１１の押し入れ時露出部１１ａの外周面を覆うように装着可能で、表面が押し入れ時非露出部１１ｂの表面色と異なる色彩となっている。具体的には、変形自在な材料（例えば、ゴム材）で構成され、図２に示すように、円筒状（チューブ状）で、内径が主軸１１の外径とほぼ同径となっている。また、軸方向に沿った開口部（切断部）２１が一端縁から他端縁にわたって形成され、この開口部２１から主軸１１の押し入れ時露出部１１ａを筒内に収容するようにして（露出部１１ａに巻き付くようにして）装着可能となっている。さらに、内面に接着剤が塗布され、これにより、図１に示すように、押し入れ時露出部１１ａの全外周面を覆うように取り付けられる。 The operation switch adapter 2 can be mounted so as to cover the outer peripheral surface of the exposed portion 11a of the main shaft 11 when pushed in, and the surface thereof has a color different from the surface color of the unexposed portion 11b when pushed in. Specifically, it is made of a deformable material (for example, a rubber material), and as shown in FIG. 2, it has a cylindrical shape (tube shape) and an inner diameter substantially equal to the outer diameter of the main shaft 11. Further, an opening portion (cutting portion) 21 along the axial direction is formed from one end edge to the other end edge, and the exposed portion 11a when the main shaft 11 is pushed in is housed in the cylinder from the opening portion 21 (exposed portion). It can be attached (as if it were wrapped around 11a). Further, an adhesive is applied to the inner surface, and as a result, as shown in FIG. 1, the adhesive is attached so as to cover the entire outer peripheral surface of the exposed portion 11a at the time of pressing.

この操作スイッチ用アダプタ２の少なくとも表面（外面）は、押し入れ時非露出部１１ｂの表面色（略銀色）と異なる色彩（例えば、ピンク色）となっている。ここで、その色彩は、押し入れ時非露出部１１ｂの表面色と識別しやすい色が好ましい。 At least the surface (outer surface) of the operation switch adapter 2 has a color (for example, pink) different from the surface color (substantially silver) of the non-exposed portion 11b when pushed. Here, the color is preferably a color that can be easily distinguished from the surface color of the non-exposed portion 11b when being pressed.

このような構成の操作スイッチ用アダプタ２によれば、上記のようにして各操作スイッチ１の押し入れ時露出部１１ａに操作スイッチ用アダプタ２を装着すると、押し入れた操作スイッチ１では、図１（ａ）に示すように、盤面１０１から操作スイッチ用アダプタ２のみが露出し、引き出した操作スイッチ１では、図１（ｂ）に示すように、盤面１０１から操作スイッチ用アダプタ２と押し入れ時非露出部１１ｂが露出する。そして、操作スイッチ用アダプタ２と押し入れ時非露出部１１ｂの表面色が異なるため、押し入れ時非露出部１１ｂの表面色が見えないか見えるかによって、操作スイッチ１が押し入れられているか引き出されているかを、容易に（一目で）かつ確実に判別することが可能となる。この結果、誤操作や復旧忘れを防止することができる。 According to the operation switch adapter 2 having such a configuration, when the operation switch adapter 2 is attached to the push-in exposed portion 11a of each operation switch 1 as described above, the operation switch 1 pushed in the state shown in FIG. ), only the operation switch adapter 2 is exposed from the board surface 101, and in the operation switch 1 that is pulled out, as shown in FIG. 11b is exposed. Since the surface colors of the operation switch adapter 2 and the non-exposed portion 11b when pushed are different, whether the operation switch 1 is pushed or pulled out depending on whether the surface color of the non-exposed portion 11b when pushed is visible or not. Can be easily (at a glance) and surely determined. As a result, it is possible to prevent erroneous operations and forgetting to recover.

しかも、操作スイッチ用アダプタ２を主軸１１の押し入れ時露出部１１ａに装着するだけでよいため、構成が簡易で、既存・既設の操作スイッチ１に容易かつ確実に適用することができる。 Moreover, since the operation switch adapter 2 only needs to be attached to the exposed portion 11a of the main shaft 11 when the main shaft 11 is pushed in, the configuration is simple and the operation switch adapter 2 can be easily and reliably applied to the existing/existing operation switch 1.

また、操作スイッチ用アダプタ２が変形自在な筒状で構成され、軸方向に沿った開口部２１を有するだけであるため、構成が簡易で、製作費を低減することができる。しかも、開口部２１から主軸１１を筒内に収容するだけで操作スイッチ用アダプタ２を装着できるため、容易かつ迅速に操作スイッチ用アダプタ２を装着することができる。特に、多数の操作スイッチ１に装着する場合でも、大きな労力や時間を要しない。 In addition, since the operation switch adapter 2 is formed in a deformable tubular shape and has only the opening 21 along the axial direction, the structure is simple and the manufacturing cost can be reduced. Moreover, since the operation switch adapter 2 can be attached only by accommodating the main shaft 11 in the cylinder through the opening 21, the operation switch adapter 2 can be attached easily and quickly. In particular, even when it is attached to a large number of operation switches 1, a large amount of labor and time are not required.

From 101, the exposed portion 11a when pushed in and the unexposed portion 11b when pushed in are exposed. At this time, since the surface color of the exposed portion 11a when pushed in is different from the surface color of the unexposed portion 11b when pushed, the operation switch 1 is pushed or pulled out depending on whether the surface color of the unexposed portion 11b when pushed is visible or not. It is possible to easily (at a glance) and surely determine whether or not there is. As a result, it is possible to prevent erroneous operations and forgetting to recover.

しかも、押し入れ時非露出部１１ｂの表面を押し入れ時露出部１１ａの表面色と異なる色で着色するだけでよいため、構成が簡易で、既存・既設の操作スイッチ１に容易かつ確実に適用することができる。 In addition, since the surface of the non-exposed portion 11b at the time of pushing in only needs to be colored with a color different from the surface color of the exposed portion 11a at the time of pushing in, the configuration is simple and can be applied easily and surely to the existing/existing operation switch 1.

FIG. 4A shows a state where the operation switch 1 is pushed in, and FIG. 4B shows a state where the operation switch 1 is pulled out. Indicates. In this embodiment, the configuration is different from that of the second embodiment in that the exposed portion 11a at the time of pressing is colored instead of the unexposed portion 11b at the time of pressing, and the same components as those of the second embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals. Therefore, the description is omitted.

すなわち、この実施の形態の操作スイッチ１では、押し入れ時露出部１１ａの表面が押し入れ時非露出部１１ｂの表面色（略銀色）と異なる色（例えば、ピンク色）で着色されている。 That is, in the operation switch 1 according to this embodiment, the surface of the exposed portion 11a at the time of pushing in is colored with a color (for example, pink) different from the surface color (substantially silver) of the non-exposed portion 11b at the time of pushing in.
