Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a device for guiding and guiding an audience in a theater or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Searching for an empty seat in a dark movie theater, etc.
Everyone has a hard time distinguishing whether there is a person in the seat or an object, and it is an unexpectedly time-consuming experience. In an emergency such as a fire or earthquake,
Spectators are evacuated, relying on a guide light that displays an emergency exit.

[0003]

As described above, searching for an empty seat in a dark movie theater or the like, or searching for an evacuation route in an emergency has a problem that the efforts of the audience are left.

The present invention has been made in order to solve the above problems, and provides an on-site guidance device which can easily find a vacant seat in a dark movie theater or the like and can guide a spectator to an emergency exit in an emergency. The purpose is to do.

[0005]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided an on-site guidance system in which all seats are divided into a plurality of zones,
A guideway that displays between these zones and entrances and emergency exits is laid on the floor.When an empty seat is detected, the guideway to the zone including that seat is displayed, and in an emergency, the guideway to the emergency exit is displayed. It is intended to be displayed.

Further, the field guiding device according to the second invention is
The width of the guideway can be variably displayed, and when a vacant seat is detected, the display width of the guideway is changed according to the number of vacant seats detected.

[0007]

In the first aspect of the present invention, when the vacant seat is detected, the guide route to the zone including the seat is displayed, so that the visitor can see the vacant zone along the guide route. Be guided to. In addition, since the guideway to the emergency exit is displayed in an emergency, the audience is guided to the emergency exit along the guideway.

Further, in the second aspect of the invention, since the display width of the guide path to the zone with vacant seats is changed according to the number of vacant seats detected, the visitor may proceed to the zone with many vacant seats. it can.

【Example】

Example 1. 1 to 3 are views showing an embodiment of the first invention of the present invention. FIG. 1 is a plan view of the field, FIG. 2 is a block diagram, and FIG. 3 is an operation flowchart.

In FIG. 1, (1) is a movie theater, (2) is a stage, (3) is an entrance, (4) is an entrance / emergency exit, (5) is a zone A consisting of a plurality of seats A1 to A6, ( 6) is also seat B1
Zone B consisting of B6, (7) is a zone C consisting of seats C1 to C6, (8) is a zone D consisting of seats D1 to D6, and G1 to G3 are guideways laid on the floor and illuminated in green, Y1 ~ Y3 is a guideway that is also illuminated in yellow,
R0 is a guideway that is also illuminated and displayed in red, and B0 is a guideway that is also illuminated and displayed in blue.

In FIG. 2, reference numeral (11) is a control device composed of a microcomputer (hereinafter referred to as a microcomputer), which is C
It has a PU (11A), a ROM (11B), a RAM (11C) and interfaces (11D) and (11E), and they are mutually connected by a bus (11F). (12) is a fire detection contact that outputs a fire signal when closed during a fire, and SA1 to SD6 are seats A1 to D, respectively.
These are vacant seat detection contacts that are configured by a pressure sensor or the like provided in 6 and are closed when the seat is vacant, and are respectively connected to the interface (11D). In addition, the guideways G1 to G3 and Y1 to Y
3, B0 and R0 are respectively connected to the interface (11E).

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. The program of this flowchart is
It is stored in the ROM (11B) of the microcomputer of the control device (11).

In step (21), it is determined whether there is a vacant seat in zone A (5) by input from vacant seat detection contacts SA1 to SD6 of seats A1 to D6. Y2 is displayed in yellow and the visitors are zone A
Go to (5). If there are no empty seats, the guide paths Y1 and Y2 are turned off in step (23).

Similarly, in step (24), it is determined whether or not there is an empty seat in zone B (6). If there is an empty seat, in step (25) the guideway R0 is displayed in red and the visitors are zone B (6). ). Similarly, in step (27), it is determined whether there is an empty seat in zone C (7) and in step (30) whether there is an empty seat in zone D (8). It is lit and displayed, and guidance is given to zone C (7) and zone D (8).

Then, in step (33), the fire detection contact (12)
It is judged whether the fire signal from is input, and if it is not input, the process returns to step (21) and steps (21) to (33) are repeated. When the fire signal is input, the process proceeds to step (34) to turn on and display the guideways Y1, Y3, R1, G1 to G3 and B0 and turn off the guideway Y2. With this, Zone C (7)
To the entrance (3) and zones A, B, D (5),
The route from (6) and (8) to the emergency exit (4) is displayed to guide the audience to the evacuation. FIG. 3 constitutes a guide route display means.

Example 2. FIG. 4 is a block diagram of essential parts showing one embodiment of the second invention of the present invention. This embodiment is basically the same as the first embodiment, but the width of the guide path is made variable, and the case where it is applied to the zone C (7) in FIG. 1 is shown.

In the figure, (15) is a vacant seat detection contact point SC1 to SC1.
Display width control that detects the number of closed seats (empty seats) in SC6, outputs the output to terminal a when the number is less than a predetermined number, and outputs the output to terminals a and b when the number exceeds It is a means. Further, the guideway G1 to the zone C (7) is divided into two in the width direction, and is divided into a first guideway G1a and a second guideway G1b.
And are connected to the terminals a and b, respectively.

That is, when there are few empty seats in the zone C (7), the display width control means (15) outputs an output to the terminal a, and the first guide path G1a is displayed in green. When there are many vacant seats, outputs are issued to the terminals a and b, and the first and second guide paths G1a and G1b are displayed in green. Therefore, if the visitors proceed along the widely displayed guideway,
You will be able to reach a zone with many seats.

It is also possible to carry out as follows. (a) The guideway to the emergency exit (4) is lit up and displayed not only during a fire but also during an emergency such as an earthquake or a power outage. (b) The guideway display form in an emergency should be changed to a display form different from that in normal times, such as blinking display. (c) For the indication of the guideway, use an optical fiber, liquid crystal, fluorescent lamp, etc. outside the indicator lamp. (d) For the vacant seat detection element, an infrared sensor, an on / off switch, etc. are used in addition to the pressure sensor. In addition, the seat is photographed by a TV camera, and the vacant seat is detected by pattern recognition.

[0020]

As described above, in the first invention of the present invention, when an empty seat is detected, the guide route to the zone including the seat is displayed, so that the visitor can enter the guide route. You will be guided to the zone with vacant seats along the way, which has the effect of easily finding a vacant seat. In addition, since the guideway to the emergency exit is displayed in an emergency, the spectators are guided to the emergency exit along the guideway, and there is an effect that they can evacuate without being confused.

Further, in the second aspect of the invention, since the display width of the guideway to the zone with vacant seats is changed according to the number of vacant seats detected, the visitor can proceed to the zone with many vacant seats, Further, there is an effect that it is possible to easily search for an empty seat.
