JPH01112398A - Abnormality alarm device - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To rapidly cope with an alarm by changing the sound of an alarm sound according to the type of the alarm. CONSTITUTION:Alarm signals 100-102 outputted from sensors 11A-13A respectively indicate the generation of the abnormality of the respective data processing parts 11-13 of data processing equipments and output the type of the abnormality in the respective data processing parts. Voltage signal generating parts 4-6 output the alternating signals of the different sounds according to respective input signals. A voltage adding part 7 outputs the signal of an input from either one of the voltage generating parts 4-6 to a speaker driving part 8. Thereby, the data processing equipment can rings the speaker in the sound according to the type of the generated abnormality.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to an abnormality alarm device, and particularly to an abnormality alarm device that detects and outputs abnormal operation of electronic equipment or the like.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, abnormality alarm devices have been installed in many devices and facilities for safety management of various tiers. and,
This type of abnormality alarm device simply emits an alarm sound continuously while the alarm is occurring. The majority are those that move D.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

Many conventional abnormality alarm devices are limited to outputting an alarm sound when an abnormality occurs, as described above, and this has resulted in the inconvenience that the details of the abnormality cannot be recognized. For this reason, there has been a drawback that sufficient countermeasures against abnormalities cannot be taken.

[Object of the Invention] An object of the present invention is to improve the disadvantages of the conventional example and to provide an abnormality alarm device that can immediately recognize the occurrence of an abnormality and its contents by listening to the alarm sound. .

[Means for solving problems]

The present invention includes means for detecting an abnormality and outputting an alarm signal, and means for emitting an alarm sound based on the alarm signal. Among these, the means for outputting an alarm signal is constituted by a sensor section that outputs an alarm signal according to the type of abnormality. The means for sounding the alarm sound includes a voltage signal generation section that generates an AC voltage with a tone corresponding to the type of the alarm signal, a speaker and a speaker drive section that emit an alarm sound according to the AC voltage signal. . This aims to achieve the above-mentioned purpose.

(Embodiment of the Invention) Hereinafter, an embodiment in which the present invention is applied to a data processing machine will be described based on FIG.

The embodiment shown in FIG. 1 includes a plurality of data processing units 11, 12.13 of a data processing machine
．． Sensor unit 1 that detects abnormality of 13 and outputs a predetermined signal.
1A, 12A, 13A, and each sensor section 11A, 12
Voltage signal generators 4, 5, and 6 convert the outputs of A and 13A into voltage signals of different tones, and a voltage adder 7 receives the outputs from the voltage signal generators 4, 5, and 6. ,
The speaker 9 is activated by being energized by the output of the voltage adder 7.
and a speaker drive section 8 that drives the.

The sensor sections 11A, 12A, and 13A are installed in advance in each of the aforementioned data processing sections 11, 12, and 13, respectively.

The alarm signals too, ioi, and t02 output from the sensors IIA, 12A, and 13A each indicate the occurrence of an abnormality in each data processing section 11, 12.13, and output the type of abnormality in each data processing section. It is configured to obtain.

The voltage signal generators 4, 5.6 are each capable of outputting AC signals with different tones (or distinct tones) depending on the input signals.

If the voltage adder 7 receives an input from either the voltage generator 4 or 5.6, it outputs the signal to the speaker driver 8.

Thereby, the data processing device 1 can cause the speaker to sound with a tone corresponding to the type of abnormality that has occurred. Therefore, the user can recognize the type of abnormality that has occurred from the timbre of the alarm sound by recognizing the correspondence between the timbre and the location of the failure or by checking it with a logarithm table or the like.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, according to the present invention, by changing the tone of the alarm sound depending on the type of alarm, users of electronic devices and other devices can not only recognize the occurrence of an alarm, but also the type of alarm. Therefore, it is possible to provide an unprecedented abnormality warning device that can quickly respond to warnings.
