Abstract

PURPOSE:To give a change in the appearance of a cage by positioning a lighting body comprizing an assembly body of illuminants will small areas and lighting bodies with large areas, and lighting them alternately. CONSTITUTION:Illuminating plates 11 are provided respectively on the upper and lower sides of a glass window 5 provided front of an observation cage 3. Each illuminating plate 11 is so constructed that a fluorescent lamp is incorporated in a semi-transparent plastic plate and made as a lighting body with a large area. Also, multiple spherical lamps 12 are provided on the upper and lower surfaces of the cage 3 to make an assembly body of spherical lamps 12 with with small areas. The lamps 12 and illuminating plates 11 are turned on and off alternately at appropriate intervals. Thus, an illuminating pattern is largely changed alternately and, therefore, an impression as if completely different cages are raised and lowered is given from view of appearance.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a lighting device installed in an observation elevator.

[Prior Art] FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing a conventional lighting system for an observation elevator, as disclosed in, for example, Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 62-74670. In the figure, (1) is the building's outer wall, (2) is the hoistway installed on the building's outer wall (1), and (3) is the observation car that is connected to the main rope (4) and goes up and down the hoistway (2). A glass window (5) is provided at the front of the car compartment. (6) is an exterior panel installed above and below the car room, on which a large number of spherical lighting lights (7) are arranged. The lighting system of conventional observation elevators is configured as described above, and passengers inside the car can ascend and descend while looking out at the outdoor scenery. It is attracting attention as a way to change the appearance of a building by placing dynamic elements in parts of a stationary building, which can be seen rising and falling. Also, for example,
As shown in Publication No. 42291, it has also been proposed to make the illumination light (7) blink, which attracts the attention of people looking at the observation basket (3) from outside. [Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In the conventional observation elevator lighting system as described above, illumination lights (7) are arranged outside the observation car (3), and these lights are set to blink. Therefore, the shape, operation, etc. of the lighting lamp (7) are simple, and there is a problem that it does not provide sufficient satisfaction as a lighting device that is rich in variety and full of charm. This invention was made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide an elevator lighting system for observation that is sufficiently varied in appearance and can give a strong impression. [Means for Solving the Problems] A lighting device for an observation elevator according to the present invention includes a lighting body consisting of an aggregate of light-emitting bodies having a small area, and a lighting body consisting of a large-area single body, and by disposing these bodies. The lights are made to turn on alternately. Further, in a lighting device for an observation elevator according to another aspect of the present invention, lighting bodies are arranged to project light to different locations, and these lighting bodies are turned on alternately. [Function] In this invention, since the aggregate of small-area light emitters and the large-area single illumination light are turned on alternately, a cage appears that gives a very different impression in appearance. Further, in another invention of the present invention, since the lighting lights are alternately turned on at different projecting locations, the appearance of the car gives a very different impression. [Embodiment] Figures 1 and 2 are diagrams showing an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 is a front view when the illumination lamp is on, and Figure 2 is a front view when the illumination board is on. Parts similar to the equipment are indicated by the same symbols. In the figure, (11) is a lighting board installed in front of the observation window (3) and placed above and below the window glass (5).For example, it is a translucent plastic board with built-in fluorescent lights. ing. (12) is a plurality of illumination lights, for example, spherical, arranged on the upper and lower surfaces of the cage (3).

In the lighting system for the observation elevator constructed as described above, there are two types: as shown in Fig. 1, the illumination light (12) is turned on and the illumination plate (11) is turned off, and as shown in Fig. 2. At appropriate times, the illumination light (12) is turned off and the illumination board (tg is turned on) appears alternately at appropriate times.In other words, in the case of Fig. 1, it is collective illumination by the illumination light (12) with a small light emitting area. In the case of Fig. 2, the single illumination is by the illumination plate (11) with a large light emitting area, and the illumination form changes greatly in turn, giving the viewer the impression that a completely different car is being raised and lowered. Figures 3 and 4 are views showing another embodiment of the present invention, where Figure 3 is a front view when the exterior is illuminated, and Figure 4 is a front view when the hoistway is illuminated.This embodiment Now, above and below the car (3), illumination lights (16A) (16B) that illuminate the exterior panels (15) provided above and below the window glass (5) from above and below, and the hoistway (2) are installed. Lighting lights (17A) (17B) that illuminate from above and below
is provided. Now, as shown in Figure 3, the lighting lamp (16A) (16
B) is turned on, the exterior plate (15) is illuminated, and the lighting lamp (
17A) (17B) are turned off, and as shown in Figure 4, the illumination lights (17A) (17B) are turned on to illuminate the hoistway (2), and the illumination lights (16A) (16B) are turned off. The two forms appear alternately. In other words, in the case of Fig. 3, only the heel (3) is illuminated and stands out, and in the case of Fig. 4, the hoistway (2) above and below the car (3) is illuminated, which is the opposite of the lighting shown in Fig. 3. The lighting pattern changes dramatically, giving the viewer the impression that a completely different cage is being raised and lowered. [Effects of the Invention] As explained above, in this invention, a lighting body consisting of a collection of light-emitting bodies with a small area and a lighting body consisting of a single unit with a large area are arranged, and these are turned on alternately. ,
The appearance gives the impression that a completely different cage is being raised and lowered,
It has the effect of being sufficiently varied and attractive. In addition, in another invention of the present invention, lighting bodies projecting light are arranged in different places, and these are turned on alternately, giving the same impression as above.
It has a similar effect.
