Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an elevator emergency call system, and more particularly to an elevator emergency call system suitable for persons with physical disabilities who are deaf or have a hearing disability.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art An elevator emergency call system has an intercom for emergency calls provided in the elevator car. When a trapping accident occurs, passengers operate the call button in the car There is only one call button to contact). As a result, the intercom bell in the control room rings. When the manager is absent, it is configured to notify the elevator monitoring center via a telephone line after a predetermined time. The elevator emergency notification device is discussed, for example, in Japanese Patent Laid-Open Nos. 52-49953 and 53-116655.

[0003]

In the prior art, when a visually impaired person with visual and hearing disabilities experiences a trapping failure while using an elevator, the person with disabilities (hereinafter, speech and hearing When the call button is operated by a disabled person), the management room or the monitoring center (hereinafter referred to as the monitoring center) is notified. In order to contact the passengers in the car immediately, the surveillance staff at the surveillance center sends a message to the intercom in the car to find out what is happening to the car. However, the physically handicapped cannot hear the message because they are deaf, or cannot speak the condition inside the car through the intercom inside the car because they have a deaf mouth. For this reason, the observer judges that it is a prank for the passenger because there is no response to the message, the dispatch of the technician is delayed, and the technician who is requested to dispatch is also a prank, Neglecting the rescue activities of passengers immediately,
There was a fear that a serious social problem, such as a long-term confinement accident, would occur.

An object of the present invention is to provide an elevator emergency notification device capable of accurately contacting a monitoring center even if a physically handicapped person with a language and hearing disabilities gets into an elevator and a trapping failure should occur. is there.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention operates a call button provided in an elevator car to operate an intercom in the elevator car and a communication line. In an elevator emergency notification device having a communication device capable of communicating with a telephone of a monitoring center that remotely monitors a plurality of elevators, a second call button provided in the car and a second call button An emergency notification activation device for activating the communication device by operation and activating a voice synthesizing device for broadcasting prestored contents is provided.

[0006]

[Function] With this configuration, even if a person with a disability in speech and hearing is trapped in the car,
By operating the second call button, a broadcast of the content stored in advance in the voice synthesizer is transmitted to the telephone of the monitoring center, and the monitoring staff of the monitoring center can judge that the passengers in the trap are physically handicapped. Since it is possible to deal with it, it is possible to prevent a long-term confinement accident.

[0007]

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In the figure, a car call button 2a, an intercom 2b, a first call button 2c for activating the intercom 2b, and a second call cover 2c covered with a transparent acrylic cover (not shown) are provided on a driver panel 2 provided in a car 1. A call button 2d and the like are cast. Further, the intercom 2b is connected to a communication device 5 which transmits and receives voice and signals to and from a monitoring center 4 which remotely monitors a plurality of elevators via a communication line 3. Further, the second call button 2d is connected to an emergency notification activation device 7 that stores a message in advance and, when activated, activates the voice synthesis device 6 and the communication device 5 that broadcast the message as voice.

On the other hand, the monitoring center 4 has a communication device 4a connected to the communication line 3, a telephone 4b connected to the communication device 4a for transmitting and receiving voice, and a control device connected to the communication device 4a for inputting a signal. 4c and this control device 4c
Storage device 4d, display device 4e, input device 4 connected to
f and a printing device 4g.

Next, the operation will be described.

It is now assumed that an elevator confinement failure occurs while passengers are on board. When the passenger operates the call button 2c, the signal emitted from the call button 2c is transmitted from the intercom 2b to the telephone 4b via the communication device 5, the communication line 3, and the communication device 4a, and the bell of the telephone 4b rings. Thereupon, the surveillance staff member can raise the handset of the telephone set 4b to respond to the intercom 2b and talk with the confined passenger.

[0012] On the other hand, when the passengers who are trapped have a language and hearing disability, they read the text of the sticker 2e attached to the driver's panel 2 (for example, "In an emergency, the person with a physical disability is acrylic." Please keep pressing the covered button. ") Operates the second call button 2d.

By operating the second call button 2d, the emergency notification activation device 7 outputs a signal to the voice synthesizer 6 and the communication device 5. The communication device 5 calls the telephone 4b of the monitoring center 4 through the communication line 3, and when the monitor lifts the handset of the telephone 4b, a message pre-stored in the communication device 5 through the voice synthesizer 6, for example, "Now , A disabled person was trapped in the elevator of the 〇 building.
Can be heard, and dispatch of technicians can be done promptly.

[0014]

According to the present invention, even if a handicapped person having a speech and hearing disabilities is trapped in the car, the operator can operate the second call button to broadcast the contents stored in advance in the voice synthesizer. Is transmitted to the telephone of the monitoring center, and the monitoring staff at the monitoring center can judge that the passengers who are trapped are physically handicapped and can take immediate action, so that a long-term trapping accident can be prevented.
