【従来技術及び考案が解決しようとする課題】[Prior art and problems to be solved by the invention]

一般に、この種建築用電動開閉体のなかには、車両や人の出入りが頻繁な例え ば倉庫、工場等に設置されるものの如く、電動モータの正逆駆動に伴つて開閉す る開閉体を、通過物を検知する通過物検知手段の検知に基づいて自動的に開閉さ せるようにしたものがあるが、このようなものでは、安全上、電動モータが過熱 した場合や開閉体が障害物を挟んだ場合等の非常時において開閉体を自動停止す るべく構成する必要がある。しかるに従来のものは、異常検知手段の検知に基づ いて開閉体の自動開閉作動を停止するべく構成されるものの、異常検知手段が非 検知状態に切換ると直ちに自動開閉を復帰するようになつていたため、開閉体が 突然動き出して人や車両に接触する惧れがあつた。そこで、開閉体が非常停止し た場合には、通過物検知手段の検知に基づく自動開閉制御を解除し、手動による 開閉のみを許容するようにすることが提案されるが、このものの場合には、異常 検知手段が非検知状態となつた後に、いちいち自動開閉制御を復帰させるための 面倒な操作が必要になるため、操作性を低下させてしまうという欠点があつた。 In general, this type of electric opening/closing structure for construction is used in cases where vehicles and people frequently come and go. For example, such as those installed in warehouses, factories, etc., which open and close with the forward and reverse drive of an electric motor. The opening/closing body automatically opens and closes based on detection by a passing object detection means that detects passing objects. However, for safety reasons, these models do not allow the electric motor to overheat. Automatically stops the opening/closing body in emergencies such as when the opening/closing body hits an obstacle or when the opening/closing body gets caught in an obstacle. It is necessary to configure it as much as possible. However, the conventional method is based on the detection of abnormality detection means. Although the device is configured to stop the automatic opening/closing operation of the opening/closing body, if the abnormality detection means is not Automatic opening/closing was restored immediately after switching to the detection state, so the opening/closing body There was a risk that it would suddenly start moving and hit people or vehicles. Then, the opening/closing body came to an emergency stop. In this case, the automatic opening/closing control based on the detection by the passing object detection means is canceled and manual operation is performed. It is proposed to allow only opening and closing, but in this case, abnormal To restore automatic opening/closing control one by one after the detection means goes into non-detection state. This has the disadvantage of reducing operability because it requires troublesome operations.

The vehicle detection sensor 5 is disposed on the indoor side and the outdoor side, respectively. Passing vehicles that block the light emitted from the floodlight tube 5a are detected inside and outside the room. It is becoming more and more like this.

【0006】 さらに、6は制御盤に内装される開閉制御部であつて、該開閉制御部6は、所 謂マイクロコンピユータを用いて構成され、そしてこのものは、前記障害物検知 センサ3、サーマルセンサ4、車両検知センサ5、自動−手動切換スイツチ7、 上昇スイツチPBU、下降スイツチPBD、停止スイツチPBS、上限リミツト スイツチLSU、下限リミツトスイツチLSD等から信号を入力する一方、これ ら入力信号に基づく判断で電動モータ2、信号機8等に対して作動信号を出力す るようになつている。つまり、開閉制御部6においては、図3〜図5のフローチ ヤートに示される制御手順に基づいてシヤツター制御を行うべく予め制御データ が記憶されている。[0006] Further, 6 is an opening/closing control section installed in the control panel, and the opening/closing control section 6 is It is configured using a so-called microcomputer, and this one is used for the obstacle detection. sensor 3, thermal sensor 4, vehicle detection sensor 5, automatic-manual changeover switch 7, Up switch PBU, down switch PBD, stop switch PBS, upper limit While inputting signals from switch LSU, lower limit switch LSD, etc. Outputs an operating signal to the electric motor 2, traffic light 8, etc. based on the input signal. It is becoming more and more like this. In other words, in the opening/closing control section 6, the flowcharts shown in FIGS. Control data is prepared in advance to perform shutter control based on the control procedure shown on the Yard. is memorized.

【0007】 前記シヤツター制御のメインルーチンは、手動−自動切換スイツチ7の操作に 基づいてサブルーチンである手動開閉制御もしくは自動開閉制御を実行するべく 設定され、また、手動開閉制御は、上昇スイツチPBUもしくは下降スイツチP BDの操作に基づいて電動モータ2を正逆駆動せしめる一方、前記サーマルセン サ4、障害物検知センサ5、停止スイツチPBS、上限リミツトスイツチLSU の何れかのONによつて電動モータ2を停止するべく設定されるが、これらの制 御手順は従来と同様である。[0007] The main routine of the shutter control is based on the operation of the manual-automatic changeover switch 7. To execute the subroutine manual opening/closing control or automatic opening/closing control based on the set, and manual opening/closing control is performed by raising switch PBU or lowering switch P. While driving the electric motor 2 in forward and reverse directions based on the operation of the BD, the thermal sensor sensor 4, obstacle detection sensor 5, stop switch PBS, upper limit switch LSU The electric motor 2 is set to be stopped when any of the The control procedure is the same as before.

【0008】 一方、自動開閉制御においては、車両検知センサ5の検知に基づいてT1時間 後に電動モータ2を自動的に上昇駆動させ、そして上昇作動中にサーマルセンサ 4、障害物検知センサ5、停止スイツチPBS(もしくは緊急停止スイツチ)が 全てOFF状態を維持した場合には、上限リミツトスイツチLSUのONに基づ いて電動モータ2を停止させる。そしてシヤツターカーテン1が全開停止した後 は、T2時間信号機8の青灯を点灯すると共に、室内側および室外側の車両検知 センサ5がOFFしたか否かに基づいて車両の通過を判断し、そして車両の通過 を確認できた場合にはT3時間経過後に電動モータ2を自動的に下降駆動させ、 そして下降作動中にサーマルセンサ4、障害物検知センサ5、停止スイツチPB Sが全てOFF状態を維持した場合には、下限リミツトスイツチLSDのONに 基づいて電動モータ2を停止させて一連の自動開閉を完了するが、上昇もしくは 下降中に前記サーマルセンサ4、障害物検知センサ5、停止スイツチPBSの何 れかが異常信号を出力した場合においては、一連の自動開閉制御を回避して本考 案が特徴とする異常時制御を行うようになつている。即ち、サーマルセンサ4、 障害物検知センサ5、停止スイツチPBSの何れかがONした場合には、まず電 動モータ2を自動的に緊急停止することになるが、モータ停止後は、異常信号が OFFとなり、かつ新たな車両検知信号の入力があつた場合にのみ自動開閉制御 を自動復帰させるべく制御状態を自動上昇制御部分にジヤンプさせるようになつ ている。[0008] On the other hand, in the automatic opening/closing control, T1 time is determined based on the detection by the vehicle detection sensor 5. Afterwards, the electric motor 2 is automatically driven upward, and the thermal sensor is activated during the upward movement. 4. Obstacle detection sensor 5, stop switch PBS (or emergency stop switch) If all remain OFF, the upper limit switch LSU is turned ON. to stop the electric motor 2. After the shutter curtain 1 has fully opened and stopped, At the time of T2, the green light of the traffic light 8 is turned on, and the vehicle detection on the indoor and outdoor sides is performed. The passage of the vehicle is determined based on whether or not the sensor 5 is turned off, and the passage of the vehicle is determined. If it is confirmed, the electric motor 2 is automatically driven downward after T3 time has elapsed, During the lowering operation, the thermal sensor 4, obstacle detection sensor 5, stop switch PB If all S remain OFF, the lower limit switch LSD is turned ON. Based on this, the electric motor 2 is stopped and a series of automatic opening/closing operations are completed. What about the thermal sensor 4, obstacle detection sensor 5, and stop switch PBS during descent? If one of them outputs an abnormal signal, the series of automatic opening/closing controls will be avoided and the The proposed plan is designed to perform abnormality control. That is, the thermal sensor 4, If either the obstacle detection sensor 5 or the stop switch PBS is turned on, first turn on the power. The motor 2 will automatically come to an emergency stop, but after the motor stops, an abnormality signal will be generated. Automatic opening/closing control only when it is turned off and a new vehicle detection signal is input. The control state now jumps to the automatic rise control part in order to automatically return the ing.

【0009】 叙述の如く構成された本考案の実施例において、自動開閉制御中に異常信号の 入力に基づいてシヤツターカーテン1が緊急停止した場合に、異常信号がOFF となつたことにのみ基づいて自動開閉制御を直ちに復帰させたり、自動開閉制御 を手動開閉制御に自動切換えしたりすることなく、異常信号がOFFとなり、か つ新たな車両検知信号の入力があつたことに基づいて自動開閉制御を自動復帰さ せることになる。従つて、異常信号のOFFと同時にシヤツターカーテン1が突 然動き出して人や車両に接触する惧れを確実に解消して安全性を著しく向上させ ることができる許りか、緊急停止時にいちいち自動開閉制御を復帰させるための 面倒な操作を行うことも不要にして操作性も著しく向上させることができる。[0009] In the embodiment of the present invention configured as described above, an abnormal signal is detected during automatic opening/closing control. If the shutter curtain 1 comes to an emergency stop based on the input, the abnormal signal will turn OFF. Automatic opening/closing control can be immediately resumed based only on the occurrence of automatic opening/closing control.

【作用効果】[effect]

以上要するに、本考案は叙述の如く構成されたものであるから、通過物を検知 する通過物検知手段の検知に基づいて開閉体を自動的に開閉させるものでありな がら、異常検知手段の検知に基づいて開閉体の自動開閉作動を停止した場合には 、異常検知手段が非検知状態となり、かつ通過物検知手段の検知が切換つたこと に基づいて異常停止した開閉体の自動開閉を復帰することになる。従つて、異常 検知手段が非検知状態となつたことに基づいて直ちに自動開閉制御を復帰するも のの如く開閉体が突然動き出してしまうような不都合を確実に防止できて安全性 を著しく向上させることができる許りか、異常検知手段の検知に基づいて制御状 態を手動に切換えるものの如く自動開閉制御を復帰させるためいちいち面倒な操 作を強要されるようなこともなく、もつて操作性の著しい向上を計ることができ る。 In summary, since the present invention is constructed as described above, it is possible to detect passing objects. The opening/closing body shall be automatically opened/closed based on the detection by the passing object detection means. However, if the automatic opening/closing operation of the opening/closing body is stopped based on the detection of the abnormality detection means, , the abnormality detection means is in a non-detection state and the detection of the passing object detection means has been switched. Based on this, the automatic opening/closing of the opening/closing body that has stopped abnormally will be resumed. Therefore, abnormal Automatic opening/closing control may be restored immediately based on the detection means becoming non-detecting. Safety is achieved by reliably preventing inconveniences such as the opening and closing body suddenly starting to move. It is possible to significantly improve the control state based on the detection of the abnormality detection means. Just like switching the state to manual, the automatic opening/closing control has to be restored, which requires a tedious operation each time. You will not be forced to make any changes, and you will be able to significantly improve operability. Ru.
