DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an evacuation guidance device, and more particularly, to an evacuation guidance device that displays an evacuation guidance direction by controlling a plurality of lamps disposed along an evacuation route to blink.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, buildings and various facilities have been used as evacuation guidance devices for evacuation guidance of people staying inside buildings and the like in the event of a fire or earthquake. Guidance lights based on the Fire Services Act have been installed. This guide light is equipped with an evacuation exit or a display panel that indicates the evacuation direction, and the light source housed inside is normally powered by a commercial power supply during normal times and in emergency and until a power failure occurs. The storage battery is turned on to increase the brightness of the display panel and notify an evacuee of an evacuation opening or an evacuation direction.

However, such a guide light as an evacuation guidance device has a fixed display on its display panel and always indicates a fixed evacuation direction regardless of a place where a fire or the like occurs. Not only does it not always indicate an appropriate evacuation direction depending on the location of the occurrence, but the interval between the installation of the guide lights is relatively wide, so that if smoke is generated due to a fire or the like, the visibility thereof is easily obstructed.

[0004] Therefore, as an evacuation guidance device, a plurality of lamps having a light source built therein are continuously arranged at short intervals in a passage, a wall surface, or the like, and connected to a control unit for controlling blinking of each of them, thereby causing a fire or the like. In the event of an emergency, a light traveling type device has been developed in which a plurality of lamps are sequentially blinked by a control unit so that the light is visually recognized as if traveling.

In such an evacuation guidance device, a plurality of lamps are turned off in normal times when no fire or the like occurs. For example, in the event of a fire, the control unit controls the place where the fire occurred and the installation of the lamps. Based on information such as the location, by flashing a plurality of lamps sequentially in a direction previously set as a safe evacuation direction according to the place of occurrence, it is possible to inform an evacuee of an appropriate evacuation direction. I have.

[0006]

However, in the conventional light-traveling type evacuation guidance device configured as described above, although a large number of lamps are installed along the emergency evacuation route, those lamps are not provided. Lamps operate only in an emergency, such as when a fire occurs, and cannot perform any function during normal times when a fire does not occur, and the cost performance of the device becomes extremely poor. Was.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide an evacuation guidance device that operates differently from an emergency even in normal times to improve cost performance.

1 and 2 show a first embodiment of an evacuation guidance device according to the present invention. The evacuation guidance device is installed in a building or a facility, and is sequentially used in an emergency. An evacuation route is displayed by blinking and running light, and includes a plurality of lamps 1, a control unit 3 constituting a main control unit 2, a setting unit 4, and a power failure assurance unit 5.
It is comprised including.

The lamp 1 has a light source housed therein and is configured to be lit by a commercial power supply.
A subway platform 6a which is an emergency evacuation route 6;
Are continuously embedded. In the lamp 1, a plurality of lamps 1 are continuously embedded at a predetermined pitch so as to be substantially parallel to the line 8 at a position of a stop line separated from the end of the train 7 on the line 8 side by a predetermined distance. And a stair guiding block 1 continuously embedded at a predetermined pitch from any lamp 1 of the stop line block 1a in the vicinity of the stairs 9.
b.

The control section 3 is connected to all the lamps 1 constituting the stop line block section 1a and the stair guidance block section 1b, and is configured to be able to control flickering. Then, for example, in an emergency when a fire occurs, a fire signal is received from the automatic fire alarm system 10, and a plurality of lamps 1 are sequentially blinked depending on the fire occurrence position so that the light is visually recognized as if traveling. The optimal light traveling direction is automatically selected and controlled to be a safe evacuation direction and an optimal direction set in advance in relation to the fire occurrence position. Therefore, in an emergency when a fire occurs, the lamps 1 are sequentially blinked in the direction from the lamps 1 constituting the stop line block 1a to the lamps 1 constituting the stair guidance block 1b. The evacuation path 6 is shown to a person staying on the platform 6a by the flow of light, and the person can be guided to the stairs 9 from the platform 6a. It is to be noted that such blinking control is performed substantially similarly in an emergency such as when an earthquake occurs.

The setting unit 4 is connected to the control unit 3,
The flickering patterns of the plurality of lamps 1 and the timings of the lamps 1 during normal times when no fire or the like occurs can be set and input. For example, when a plurality of lamps 1 are set and input, a stop line block section 1a on one side of the platform 6a and a time table in which the train 7 enters the line 8 on one side of the platform 6a are input. A predetermined time before the time shown in the timetable, the platform 6a
All of the lamps 1 constituting the stop line block section 1a on one side flash or flash on and off at the same time to visually notify that the train 7 is coming soon and to call attention. The same setting can be input on the other side of the platform 6a.
In the event of an emergency such as a fire, all lamps 1
The operation is controlled so as to indicate the evacuation guidance direction on the evacuation route 6 as described above, prior to the input of the setting unit 4.

The power failure guarantee unit 5 is connected to the control unit 3 and has a power supply different from the commercial power supply. When the commercial power supply fails, the power supply guarantees the sequential blinking operation of the lamp 1 for at least a predetermined time by the different power supply. Have been able to.

With this configuration, in the evacuation guidance device according to the present embodiment, in the event of an emergency such as a fire or earthquake, the plurality of lamps 1 are sequentially turned on and off by the control unit 3 and the flow of light is controlled. Can indicate the evacuation direction on the evacuation route 6, and at all times, based on the setting input from the setting unit 4, all of the one stop line block 1 a, which is one of the lamps 1, is configured. The lamp 1 flashes all at once, visually alerting the train 7 coming soon, and alerting the user. The lamp 1 can always operate differently from an emergency. In this way, cost performance can be improved. Also, at this time, the flashing of the lamp 1 can be made easier to visually recognize the flashing of the lamp 1,
Further attention can be provided. Also, if the stop line block 1a is installed at a position where the stop line of the platform 6a is to be provided, the stop line block 1a, which is a group of the lamps 1, allows the person to step on the train 7 until the train 7 stops to ensure safety. It can also serve as a stop line, which is a line that is not desired, and there is no need to draw a white line, a yellow line, or the like as a stop line on the platform 6a.

FIG. 3 shows a second embodiment of the evacuation guidance device according to the present invention. The difference from the first embodiment is that the evacuation guidance device is used in a large-scale building such as an underground mall or a shopping center. It is installed in a facility, and the lamp 1 can be flashed or flashed in a normal state in correspondence with the point where the evacuation route 6 is the passage 6b and the stores 11 and the like located on both sides thereof. The other points are the same as those of the first embodiment.

That is, the plurality of lamps 1 includes a passage block portion 1c which is continuously arranged at predetermined intervals along a passage 6b of an underground shopping mall which becomes an emergency evacuation route 6, and a passage block near the stairs 9, for example. A plurality of lamps 1 are continuously arranged at predetermined intervals in the direction of the stairs 9 from the block portion 1c to form a stair block portion 1b. For example, when one store 11a performs a bargain sale or the like such as a time service by setting and inputting from the setting unit 4 in correspondence with the store 11 located in, a lamp provided in front of the one store 11a Attention is drawn by blinking only one at a time or blinking by flashing.

Even in this configuration, in the event of an emergency such as a fire or an earthquake, the plurality of lamps 1 are sequentially blinked by the control unit 3 to indicate the evacuation direction of the evacuation route 6 by the flow of light. At the same time, based on the setting input from the setting unit 4 during normal times, the lamps 1 corresponding to the stores 11 on both sides of the evacuation route 6 are simultaneously flashed or flashed, and the store 11 is operated, for example, in time. It is possible to visually inform a pedestrian that a service or the like is being performed and to call attention, and the lamp 1 can be operated differently from an emergency even in a normal state to improve cost performance.
