Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to an improvement of an elevator hall operating panel.

Usually, an elevator hall is provided with a hall operation panel having up and down buttons. Passengers who want to go up will press the up button, and passengers who want to go down will press the down button to call for a car.When they get into the car that has arrived, they will register the car call using the destination floor button installed inside the car. and drive the car to the desired floor.

However, if the car is large and the car is full, those who boarded first will be crammed into the back of the car, making it difficult to register the car call. In other words, the destination floor button in the car is normally placed near the car entrance.

Passengers at the back of the car have to push their way through people to press the destination floor button, causing chaos in the car. Also, if it's so crowded that you can't press the destination floor button yourself, you can loudly ask another passenger to press the destination floor button, but some passengers may be hesitant to do this, Sometimes I can't go to the floor I want to go to.

In order to improve this, it has been proposed to provide a destination floor button at the second landing, as shown in FIG.

In the diagram, X and Y are 3 for Unit 1 and Unit 2, respectively.
Floor landing door, 2 is landing, (IA), (2A), (
4A) to (9A) are the destination south ships where calls corresponding to the 1st, 2nd, and 4th to 9th floors are commonly registered for Units 1 and 2.

These are arranged on the landing operation panel 0 installed in the landing on the third floor. (11x) is an array of indicator lights that display the first floor floor number corresponding to each floor installed above the door Destination floor indicator to display (11Y
) is also the destination floor indicator of Unit 2, (12X),
(13X) is the upstream and downstream arrival warning light of Unit 1.
(12Y) and (13Y) are also the arrival warning lights of Unit 2.

Now, at the 3rd floor boarding point, the destination is Minamisen (IA), (2A),
When (4A) and (5A) are pressed, these calls are assigned to each car by the well-known assignment device described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 54-14382.

In this way, the information from one passenger, which was previously limited to the up and down seats, is now given as a clearer destination floor, so the above allocation becomes even more accurate, and the optimal car is assigned to each car. become. As a result, 1
If the calls for the 2nd floor and 2nd floor are assigned to machine No. 1, and the calls for the 4th and 5th floors are assigned to machine 2, the 2nd row destination floor indicator (11X),
(11Y) displays the respective destination floors. Passengers going to the 1st and 2nd floors will now be in front of door X of the landing area of Unit 1.
Passengers going to the 4th and 5th floors will only have to wait for their cars to arrive in front of Door Y of the landing of Unit 2. When the car arrives and they board the car, the call number for the destination floor has already been automatically registered, so the nine passengers only have to press the destination south boat once at the landing, and as mentioned above, the car is crowded. The problem of not being able to push the destination south ship in the car even if the destination is in the car will be resolved.

However, since the destination floor display device is expensive, it may not be installed due to cost constraints.

Therefore, passengers know the arrival of the car and prepare to board the car by lighting (blinking) the arrival warning lights (12X), (12Y), (13X), and (13Y).

However, if the destination south ship is installed at the second platform, passengers usually push the destination south ship without being aware of whether their destination floor is above or below the floor they are on, so the car will not arrive. When I did this, I saw the direction of my destination floor and the illuminated arrival warning lights (12X), (12Y), and (13X).

I couldn't make up my mind about the direction of (13Y), so I ended up getting on the wrong car with Shun and Kakei, and also got on the wrong car going in the opposite direction.

It is conceivable that the user may miss the car he was supposed to ride.

This invention solves the above-mentioned drawbacks, and aims to provide an elevator landing operation panel with a landing destination south ship, which reduces confusion in judgment and mistakes in boarding the car upon arrival of the car. It is.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.

In Figure 2, Q41 and 0!9 are OR gates, (I[

and a pulse generator that outputs (17a), (11 is A
When a pulse signal of rl is input to point B, a rising chime sound is output from “do” to “mi”, and when a pulse signal of “H” is input to point B, it is output from “mi” to “do”. A well-known electronic chime that outputs a single descending chime sound (II is the hall operation panel O

5. Passengers on the 3rd floor are on the 4th to 9th floors of the destination south ship (4A) to (9).
If you press any of A), the destination floor indicator (4A)
~ (9A) becomes "H", and the OR gate (1

The pulse signal (16a) is generated by the pulse generator 1f9.
H" and an electronic chime (as it is input to point A of II.

Passengers are notified of the upward double tone of ``Do'' → ``Mi'' indicating the upward direction through the speaker (II), and the passengers naturally become aware that their destination floor is in the upward direction. Also, when a passenger on the 3rd floor presses either the destination south ship (1 person) or (2 people) on the 1st or 2nd floor, the O
Since the output signal of the R gate (15) changes from [J to "H", the pulse signal (17a) from the pulse generator a'O becomes rl and is input to the B point of the electronic chime wire, so the speaker Passengers are notified of the downhill doublet of ``mi'' → ``do'', which indicates the direction of descent, through the a-scar.

In this way, in the above embodiment, when the passenger presses the second destination floor button, a chime sound corresponding to the direction of the destination floor informs the passenger of the direction, making them naturally aware of the direction of the destination, so that when the car arrives, the passenger knows his/her destination. There is no need to be confused about whether the direction of the floor and the direction of the arrival warning light match or do not match, and it is possible to reduce the possibility of riding the wrong car or missing the car. It is especially easy to use for blind people.

FIGS. 3 and 4 show other embodiments of the present invention. In FIGS. 2A and 2B, (20A) and (21A) are respectively an up button and a down button provided on a hall operating panel member.

When a passenger presses the up button (20A), a pulse signal (16a) is emitted by the pulse oscillator +IB in the same way as in the first embodiment, and the electronic chime 0 and speaker (Ll indicates the up direction "Do") → [Mi 1 top #) Two consecutive tones are announced to passengers. Furthermore, if the downhill button (21A) is pressed, the passenger will be notified of the downward double tone of "mi" → "do", which indicates the direction of descent. Therefore, passengers become more aware of the direction of their destination floor, and the same effect as in the first embodiment can be achieved.

In each of the above embodiments, an electronic chime is used as a sounding device (including a speaker), but the chime is not limited to this. A sounding device may also be used.

Moreover, it is needless to say that the same effect can be achieved even if the notification is made vocally.

However, in each of the above embodiments, only one set of electronic chime and speaker is provided on the hall operation panel.

A sounding device may be provided for each destination floor indicator button and down button (for example, built into the button).

As explained above, this idea produces different forms of acoustics depending on when you press the call button to go to a floor above the floor where the hall control panel is installed and when you press the call button to go to a floor below. Alternatively, passengers are notified by voice so that when they press the button, they are naturally aware of their destination direction, which reduces the chance of them being confused about their decision or boarding the wrong car when they arrive at the car. be able to.
