Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Purpose of the invention] (Industrial application field) The present invention relates to a notification device for an elevator for disabled persons.

(Prior Art) Generally, in an elevator for the handicapped, a hall call for a handicap sound and a car call for a handicapped person are input to an elevator control device separately from a normal hall call and a car call.

When there is a hall call or a car call by a person with a disability, controls such as increasing the door opening time are performed.

In addition, call buttons for people with disabilities are placed at a lower position than normal call buttons to accommodate the height of wheelchairs, and floor markings are provided in Braille to accommodate the visually impaired.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) A handicapped person makes a hall call for handicapped people, gets into a car, and registers for a handicapped car call. Due to this car call registration, when the car arrives at the destination floor and opens the door, if the inside of the car is crowded, it may be inconvenient for the disabled person to get off the car on the floor. In addition, if other passengers do not notice their presence, one door may close and they may not be able to get off the train.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide an elevator notification device that provides in-car notification so that a disabled person can easily get off the car.

[Structure of the invention]

(Means for solving the problem) A handicapped car call signal generating means and a car load detecting means are input into the car, and signals from the handicapped car call signal generating means and the car load detecting means are inputted to output a voice generation command. and voice notification means for inputting a voice generation command from the calculation means and making a voice notification in the car.

(Function) When the car arrives at the floor according to the handicapped car call signal from the handicapped car call signal generating means and the detection signal from the car load detection means is output, the calculation means outputs a voice generation command to the voice notification means. . The voice notification means, in response to a voice generation command, makes a voice notification in the car corresponding to the command.

(Example) An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows an elevator according to an embodiment of the present invention, which is provided with a weight detector 3 and a speaker 4. The car call operation panel 2 for the disabled is provided with car call buttons 5 for each floor.

6 is a calculation and 5 microcomputer. The microcomputer 6 includes an input register 7, a central processing unit 8.
It is composed of an input register 9, an output register 10, and a storage section 11. The central processing unit 8 performs predetermined calculations on signals input from the outside via the input registers 47 and 9 according to a program stored in the storage unit 11. The calculation result is output to the outside via the output register 10.

The handicapped car call signal from the handicapped car call operation panel 2 is input to the central processing unit 8 via the input register 7. Similarly, a detection signal from the car load detector 3 is input to the central processing unit 8 via an analog-to-digital converter 12 (hereinafter referred to as an A/D converter) and an input register 9. The central processing unit 8 performs predetermined calculations. According to the calculation result, the central processing unit 8 outputs a sound generation command to the sound alarm 13 via the output register 10. Audio alarm 1
3 uses a speaker 4 to make an audio notification within the car.

Next, the effect will be explained. FIG. 2 shows a bit configuration diagram in the storage unit 11 for a hall call for the handicapped (by a hall call button not shown) and a car call for the handicapped. To explain the case where the service floor is the 8th floor, the car calls IK to 8 from the 1st floor to the 8th floor have bits (0) as shown in Figure 2.
It is assumed that bits from bit (7) are input in bit units.

FIG. 3 shows a storage section 11 for detecting signals when a signal from the car load detector 3 is converted into a digital signal by an A/D converter 12 and sent to a microcomputer 6 via an input register 9. FIG.

FIG. 4 is an operation flowchart of the microcomputer 6. In step 1, various data in the storage section 11 in the microcomputer 6 are initialized, and data such as flag tables are initialized. Next, the operation processing routine of step 2 is performed. If a normal hall call, a car call, a hall call by a handicapped person, or a car call is input and the call is MRed, the operation of the elevator corresponding to the call is controlled and the car is guided to the destination floor.

Step 3 is then executed. In step 3, it is determined whether the car has arrived at the floor based on the car call operation panel 2 for disabled persons, and if it is determined that the car has arrived, step 4 is executed. In step 4, it is determined whether the in-car load detected by the in-car load detector 3 is greater than or equal to a certain value, and if it is greater than or equal to the certain value, then step 5 is executed. In step 5, it is determined whether a door opening command has been output. Next time the door open command is output, step 6
A voice notification command is output from the central processing unit 8 to the voice notification device 13 via the output register 10. In response to the voice notification command, the voice notification device 13 notifies the passenger in the car from the speaker 4 that ``a disabled person is getting off''.6 or above, the voice notification to the passenger in the car is completed. That is, from step 3 to step 6, the disabled person arrives at the car call registration floor and the load inside the car is greater than a certain value.

Further, under the condition that the door opening command is output, the passenger in the car is notified by voice that the disabled person is getting off the car.

The constant value in step 4 may be set to around 60% of the car's carrying capacity considering the situation where the car is quite crowded, or even if the car is quite empty, it may be set to 60% of the car's carrying capacity. For convenience, it may be set to a low value of about 15%, ie.

By setting a condition as to whether the load inside the car is equal to or higher than a certain value, it is possible to issue voice notification only when the car is crowded and eliminate wasteful voice notification when the car is empty.

【Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, according to the present invention, when a person registers a car call for the disabled and tries to get off at the destination floor.

Even if the inside of the car is crowded, it is possible to obtain a notification device for an elevator for the handicapped, which can notify the passengers in the car to that effect and obtain the cooperation of other passengers to provide access to the handicapped person. can.
