DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an elevator landing position display panel, and more particularly, to an elevator landing position display panel which allows the current position and traveling direction of an elevator to be seen at a glance.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art FIG. 4 shows an entire configuration of an elevator. As shown in FIG. 4, the elevator apparatus is provided with a hoistway 2 for elevating and lowering the car 1, and the car 1 and the counterweight 3 are suspended by a wire rope 4 and installed in a machine room. By driving the device 5, the car 1 and the counterweight 3 move up and down in the opposite direction. A hall 6 is provided on each floor of the hoistway 2, and the hall 6 has a hall wall 7 that forms a part of the hoistway, and a hall position display panel 8 is provided inside the hall wall 7. Embedded.

Further, as shown in FIG. 5, a landing position display panel 8 has a push button 9 for calling the car 1 to its own floor.
(Buttons with the display of “△” and “▽”). In addition, a position indicator light 1 for notifying the current position of the car 1 as shown in FIG.
A direction light 11 (indicator light consisting of “△” and “▽”) indicating the traveling direction of the car 1 and 0 is built in. Each position indicator light 10 is provided with a floor display character.

[0004]

However, in the above-described conventional elevator landing position display panel 8, the car 1
It is necessary to check the lighting status of both the position indicator light 10 and the direction light 11 for the movement of the vehicle, and there is a problem that the movement of the elevator cannot be instantaneously determined.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, and has as its object that the current position and traveling direction of an elevator can be understood at a glance, and a passenger waiting for a car in an elevator hall can instantly judge the movement of the elevator. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a simple elevator landing position display panel.

[0006]

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above problems, an elevator landing position display panel according to the present invention has the following features.

(1) Position indicator lamps with a direction light function for indicating the traveling direction of the car and the stop position of the car are provided beside each floor display character.

Accordingly, the traveling direction and the current position of the elevator can be instantaneously determined only by checking the lighting status of the position indicating lamp with the direction light function beside the floor display characters.

(2) In the elevator hall position display panel according to the above (1), the position indicating lamp with a direction light function is a dot type digital indicating lamp formed by a double arrow.

Therefore, it is possible to indicate that the vehicle is heading upward from the floor by illuminating, for example, the up arrow of the double-arrow display of the position indicating lamp with the direction light function corresponding to the floor where the car is located. By illuminating the down arrow, it is possible to indicate that the vehicle is heading downward from the floor, and by illuminating the double arrow, it is possible to indicate that the car is stopped on the floor.

[0011]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described.

The elevator landing position display panel will be described with reference to FIGS. 1, 2 and 3. FIG. The same components as those of the above-described conventional elevator are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof will be omitted. In the case of this embodiment, the push button 9 is a push button including an up arrow and a down arrow.

As shown in FIG. 1, floor display characters 15 are provided on the left side of the landing position display panel 8. Also, in the center of the hall position display panel 8, a position with a direction light function that displays the traveling direction of the car and the stop position of the car next to the floor display character 15 corresponding to each floor display character 15 respectively. An indicator light 12 is provided.

FIG. 2 shows an enlarged view of a part of the position indicating lamp 12 with a direction light function. The position indicating lamp 12 with a direction light function of the present embodiment is a dot-type digital indicating lamp composed of a double-headed arrow.

Next, the operation of the elevator landing position display panel of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, when a call is registered by the push button 9 and the car 1 starts to move, for example, when the car 1 is moving upward, the floor on which the car 1 is moving is located. When the up arrow 12a of the position indicator light 12 with the direction light function corresponding to the floor is lit, and when the vehicle is moving downward, the position indicator light 12 with the direction light function corresponding to the floor on which the car 1 is moving. The down arrow 12b lights up. Further, when the car 1 is stopped on a certain floor, the corresponding position indicator light 12 with a direction light function on the floor is provided.
Both the up arrow 12a and the down arrow 12b light up.

According to the elevator landing position display panel of this embodiment, since one indicator light has both the direction light function and the position indicator light function, the position with the direction light function beside the floor display character is provided. The traveling direction and the current position of the elevator can be instantaneously determined only by checking the lighting status of the indicator lamp.

In addition, since the direction light 11 shown in FIG. 6 which was conventionally required is not required, the main body of the landing position display panel 8 can be made compact. As a result, it is possible to reduce the hole size of the hall wall 7 shown in FIG. 5 for embedding the hall position display panel 8.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, when the landing position display panel 8 of the elevator is replaced, the existing landing hole perforated space is utilized without expanding the landing wall 7 and a diagram conventionally required. In place of the direction light 11 shown in FIG. 6, an operation indicator light such as a full light 13 or a pause light 14 may be added.

[0020]

As described above, according to the elevator hall position display panel according to the present invention, the traveling direction of the elevator can be determined simply by checking the lighting status of the position indicator lamp with the direction light function beside the floor display characters. And the current position can be determined instantaneously. Furthermore, since the direction light which was required conventionally is not required, the landing position display panel main body can be made compact. As a result, it is possible to reduce the size of a hole formed in the hall wall for embedding the hall position display panel.

Further, since the position indicating lamp with the direction light function is a dot type digital indicating lamp composed of a double arrow, the position indicating lamp with the direction light function corresponding to the floor where the car is located can be selected from the following: For example, by lighting the up arrow, you can indicate that you are heading upward from that floor,
By illuminating the down arrow, it is possible to indicate that the vehicle is heading downward from that floor, and by illuminating both arrows, it is possible to indicate that the car is stopped on that floor.
