Abstract

PURPOSE:To efficiently execute the monitor and command, etc., of a building equipment by a managing person by dividing a managing device into a host unit and a slave unit and executing communication between the host unit and the slave unit by a radio. CONSTITUTION:A host unit 2 and a slave unit 3 of the managing device are operated by turning ON an activation switch and the host unit 2 fetches contact inputs 25 of building equipments 5, 6 and 7 by a managing machine 22. Then, the managing machine 22 transmits an ON/OFF signal through an antenna 4 to the slave unit 3 by the radio waves of a communication equipment 23. Next, a signal from the slave unit is sent through the antenna 4 to the managing machine 22 by the communication equipment 23. When this signal is a control signal, the managing machine 22 controls a contact output 26. On the other hand, the slave unit 3 receives a state signal form the host unit and the signal is sent and displayed at a display 33. When the managing person outputs a control command to the equipments 5-7, the command is communicated to the host unit 2 by the radio waves.

The present invention provides a building management device that can perform the following tasks.

[Means to solve the problem]

In the building management device according to the present invention, the main unit includes means for detecting contact input of building equipment, means for wirelessly communicating the state of contact input to slave units, and contact output to each building equipment in accordance with a control command. a means for receiving and displaying the state of the contact input on the slave device; a means for inputting a control command for the contact output to the building equipment according to the state of the contact input; and means for wirelessly communicating control commands to the base unit.

[Effect]

In this invention, the base unit and the slave unit can communicate wirelessly, and the building equipment can be monitored and commanded from a remote location from the building management device, and the manager can monitor and command the building equipment from anywhere as long as he/she is carrying the slave unit. Can give commands.

〔Example〕

FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing an embodiment of the present invention.

(1) is a building in which a building management device is installed, and the building management device includes building equipment (such as air conditioners and lighting) in building (1).
5), (6), and (7) are managed. (2) is the main unit of the building management device, and equipment (5), (6),
It sends and receives signals with (7) and sends and receives building equipment information with slave unit (3). The handset (3) is a portable device,
Signals can be sent and received from parent m (2) anywhere in building (1). (4) is an antenna, which is used by the base unit (2) to send and receive signals with the slave unit (3), and the building management device uses these base unit (2), slave unit (3), and antenna (4). configured.

A schematic configuration diagram of the parent unit (2) is shown in Figure 2, and the slave unit (3) is shown in Figure 2.
) is shown in Fig. 3. The parent unit in Figure 2 (
2) is the contact input [25] and contact output (2) of the building equipment.
6) Facility management machine (22) and handset (3) that send and receive signals
It consists of a communication device (23) that sends and receives building equipment information to and from the device, and is connected to an antenna (4) for radio wave communication with the handset (3). In addition, the slave device (3) in Fig. 3 is the parent device (
2), a communication device (31) for transmitting and receiving building equipment information, an antenna for radio wave communication (32), a display device (33) for displaying building equipment information, and a building equipment information setting and control command by the manager. It is a small and easily portable device.

Next, the operation of the above embodiment will be explained with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5. FIGS. 4 and 5 are explanatory diagrams of the operations of the master unit (2) and slave unit (3). First, the main unit of the building management device (2)
When the start switch (not shown) of the slave unit (3) is turned on, the master unit (2) and the slave unit (3) operate (5100
．． 5200). After the operation, the child device (3) enters a state of waiting for an input signal from the parent device (2) (5201). The master device (2) receives the contact inputs (25) of the building equipment (5), (6), and (7) through the management device (22) (5101).
, monitor the contact status (5102). The management device (22) outputs an ON signal (5103) when the result of step 5102 is “changed” and an OFF signal (51) when “no change”.
04) and transmits an ON10 F F signal to the handset (3) by radio waves via the antenna (4) using the communication device (23) (S105). After sending, the management device (22) sends the slave device (3
) enters the input waiting state (5106). Handset (3)
The communication device (23) sends the signal to the management device (22) via the antenna (4) (5106), and the management device (22) sends the signal from the handset (3) to the building equipment (5), (6) ).

(7) monitors whether it is a control command to the contact output (26) (5107). As a result of monitoring, if there is a control command, the contact output (26) is controlled (slo8), and if it is not a control command, nothing is done. After completing the series of processes described above, the process returns to step 5101 and repeats until the start switch (not shown) is turned off.

On the other hand, the slave unit (3) receives contact inputs (25
) waits for the status signal (5201), the status signal is sent to the antenna (
32) receives a signal from the communication device (31) (52).
01). After receiving the status signal, it is sent to the display (3) and displayed. The manager sees this display and selects the building equipment (5),
Know the status of (6) and (7). The manager is responsible for building equipment (
5) When issuing control commands to (6) and (7), the commands are issued from the input device (3) (5203). When there is a control command, create equipment control signal present (5205),
When there is no control command, create no equipment control signal (520
4). The signals generated in steps 5204 and 5205 are transmitted by radio waves from the communication device (31) to the base device (2) via the antenna (32) (5206). After completing the above series of processes, return to step 5201 and switch the start switch (
(not shown) is turned off.

Although the above embodiment has been explained using a building management device as an example, the present invention is effective for all kinds of things managed by humans.

(Effects of the Invention) As described above, according to the present invention, when monitoring and giving commands to building equipment, it was necessary to wait near the building management device, but the building management device can be used as a main unit. Separated from the slave unit, communication between the base unit and the slave unit can be performed wirelessly, allowing the manager to monitor and give commands to building equipment from anywhere in the building. It can also be dealt with quickly.
