Abstract

PURPOSE:To immediately return to a standard floor when a person is noticed of forgetting something during the traveling of a cage by installing a means for stopping the shift of a cage after start and returns to the standard floor, ontre the cage. CONSTITUTION:When a person gets on a cage from the first floor and operates a return button 9 to return to the first floor during the traveling to a prescribed floor, a circuit (+)-9-17b-15-(-) is constituted, and a stop relay 15 is excited to stop the traveling of the cage. While, also a contact point 15a1 is closed, and a self retention circuit is constituted, and also a contact point 15a2 is closed, and a circuit (+)-15a2-18b-16-(-) is constituted, and a standard floor calling registering relay 16 is excited, while, a circuit (+)-15a2-15a3-17 is constituted by the closing operation of a contact point 15a3, and a stop release timing relay 17 is excited, and a contact point 17b is opened to deenergize the stop relay 15. Then, the cage starts traveling, and reaches the standard floor of the first floor, and a contact point 18b is opened to deenergize the registering relay 16, and a self retention contact point 16a is opened, and all the relays are deenergized, and the original state is restored.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a home elevator used in a single private residence.

[Conventional technology]

Recently, due to the housing shortage, it is recommended that two or three generations live in the same house, and the number of two- and three-story private houses is increasing. In this private residence, a living room for the elderly was provided on the first floor because it was dangerous for the elderly to climb up and down the stairs. However, due to the lack of sunlight and poor visibility on the first floor, it was proposed to provide living rooms for the elderly on the upper floors of the second and third floors. It is recommended to install a home elevator as shown in Japanese Patent No. 26370, and some of it is actually put into practice.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The above proposed home elevator has a running speed of 5 to 1
It travels at an extremely slow speed of 2 m/min, and it takes about 45 seconds to 1 minute to get on the train from the standard floor, the first floor, and go to the third floor.

For this reason, for example, a user who is a housewife may not be able to return immediately even if she remembers that she forgot to turn on the gas after boarding the vehicle and leaving the vehicle. A similar problem also occurs when the user is an elderly person.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a home elevator that allows an elevator user to immediately return to a standard floor if he or she notices something left behind immediately after the elevator car is in operation.

[Means to solve the problem]

The above purpose is to provide a home elevator in a two-story or higher house equipped with a hoistway and a car that moves up and down within the hoistway, after the car leaves the car.

This is achieved by providing means for stopping the movement of the car and returning it to the standard floor.

[Effect]

After the car departs, a means is provided at the heel to stop the movement of the car and return it to the standard floor, and when the user notices something he has left behind, he immediately operates the return means.

As a result, the car instantly stops and returns to the standard floor, allowing the user to quickly complete the forgotten errand.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, five home elevators of the present invention will be explained based on the drawings of one embodiment.

Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view showing the overall configuration of a home elevator;
2 is a perspective view showing a private residence in which the home elevator of FIG. 1 is installed, and FIG. 3 is an electric circuit diagram illustrating the operation of a car provided in the home elevator of FIG. 1.

1 and 2, reference numeral 1 denotes a private residence, for example, a three-story house having a first floor, a floor 11, a second floor 12, a third floor 13, and an entrance 14. Reference numeral 2 denotes a hoistway installed at a corner of the outer wall of the private residence 1, 3a a plunger that moves up and down by supplying and discharging oil into a cylinder 3b buried underground in the hoistway 2, and 4 a plunger of the plunger 3a. A car supported by the upper end and moving up and down in the hoistway 2, 5 an observation window provided at the foot 4, and 6 a transparent window provided in the hoistway 2, through which passengers in the car 4 can see the observation window 5 and the transparent window 6. The structure is such that the outside of the private residence 1 can be viewed through the screen.

7 is an operation panel provided on the heel 4, and the operation panel 7 is provided with a car call button 8 and a return type 9 for stopping the heel 4 at any position on the hoistway 2 and returning it. Moreover, 10 is a landing door installed on each of the floors 11 to 13. In FIG. 3, reference numeral 15 denotes a stop relay that is excited when the return type 9 in the car 4 is pressed and stops the car 4; 15a, 15;
ai is a normally open contact of the stop relay 15, 16 is a reference floor call registration relay, 18b is a normally closed contact for detecting a reference floor, 16a is a normally open contact of the reference floor call registration relay 16, 17 Stop relay 15 is energized and normally open contact 1
Stop release time relay 17b is energized when 5 a, 15 a is closed, stop release time relay 1
7 normally closed contacts.

However, now suppose that the standard floor is on the first floor, and a passenger gets into the car from the first floor, operates the call button 8 on the driving panel 7 as usual, and starts traveling to a predetermined floor. If you remember that you forgot to turn off the gas valve during this trip and want to return immediately, press return button 9. This return type 9
By pressing , a circuit of (+)-9-17b-15-(-) is formed, the stop relay 15 is energized, and the operation of the car 4 is stopped. On the other hand, due to the excitation of this stop relay 15, the contact 15a1 is closed, and a self-holding circuit is configured.
Contact 15a2 is also closed, (+)-15a, -18b-
16-() is constructed. With this circuit configuration,
The reference floor call registration relay 16 is energized, and the conditions for the car 4 to travel to the reference floor are met. On the other hand, the closing operation of the contact 15a3 forms a circuit of (+) 15 a = -15ai - 17 (), and the car is stopped. The release time limit relay 17 is energized, and the energization of this relay 17 opens the contact 17b, deenergizing the stop relay 15. After the stop relay 15 is demagnetized, the car 4 starts traveling to the standard floor and arrives at the first standard floor. When the heel 4 arrives at this reference floor, the contact 18b opens and the registration relay 16 is demagnetized. This demagnetization of the registration relay 16 opens the self-holding contact 16a, and all relays are demagnetized and return to their original states.

Since the car 4 has returned to the standard floor, the family member who forgot to turn off the gas valve can return immediately and perform the predetermined work.

As described above, if the car 4 notices something left behind after it starts operating, it can immediately return to the standard floor.

In this example, the reference floor is the first floor, but the reference floor can be set arbitrarily.

〔Effect of the invention〕

According to the present invention, even when the car is in the middle of operation, it is possible to return to the standard floor, and the user can quickly complete the errands that he/she forgot.
