Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to an improvement in an elevator car call registration device.

[The technical background of the invention and its problems]

FIG. 2 shows an example of a conventional elevator cab. Second
In the figure, l is a side plate, 2 is a floor, and 3 is a ceiling, and a car operation panel 7 is provided for registering the floor that passengers in the car want to go to using the storage door pocket 5 of the car door 4. . In addition, 6
This is a floor indicator that shows the current position of the car. The car operation panel 7 is generally constructed as shown in FIG. 3, an example of which is shown in the prior art. In Figure 3, 702 is the staff call button, and 703 is the door close button. Tan, 704 is the door opening button%70
5 is a switch storage door that stores various control switches such as dedicated operation command switches, ventilation fans, and interior lights;
rot; is an information display window that displays messages to passengers.

707 is a part of the speaker of the intercom device. 70
For B, the car call registrations corresponding to the 1st to 7th floors are tan. In this way, the conventional car operation panel 1 is marked with the corresponding floor base so that it can be seen at all times, and when a passenger operates it, the surrounding area or the entire area lights up brightly due to the built-in indicator light, and the call request is accepted. The passenger was informed that the accident had occurred.

Incidentally, recently, manufacturers have been receiving requests to limit the floors that elevators can respond to depending on the situation.

For example, it may be required to provide a disconnection switch on the monitoring panel to prevent the elevator from stopping at a floor designated by the disconnection switch during nighttime or other security reasons due to car calls.

In addition, although this is often the case with group control elevators where multiple elevators are controlled as a group, it can also be implemented in individually installed elevators to increase the transportation capacity of the elevator by reducing the number of stops per elevator revolution. There is a way.

Floors on which car call registration is temporarily not possible are set by limiting times such as dispatch or lunch time, or by detecting the degree of elevator congestion. The number of elevators that customers can board is limited. Alternatively, you can either get off at a floor near your destination and have to use the stairs for the rest of your trip, which may incur some inconvenience, or you can significantly improve transportation capacity. Therefore, it is highly effective in equalizing and reducing waiting times during busy times.

Alternatively, there are great advantages such as being able to reduce the number of machines installed in parallel or the number of people installed while maintaining the conventional level. In general, the number of parallel elevators, speed, and capacity of elevators are determined by considering the 5-minute transport capacity ratio when dispatched in the morning.

Conventionally, when operating the car by restricting all the floors that can be registered for car calls as described above, there have been some inconveniences as described below, and even though the above-mentioned advantages can be expected, it has hardly been put into practice.

In other words, even if there is a sign on the 1st landing side indicating the available floor, many passengers will overlook it or force themselves to get into the car.
As shown in the diagram, the car call registration button on the available floor and the unresponsive floor looked the same, so I pressed the button for the unresponsive floor, and the button did not light up, so I thought it was a malfunction and pressed 4 times. There was an inconvenience that subsequent passengers could not get on the car because it was difficult to move away from the vicinity of the car control panel. In addition, there were times when the passengers in question thought it was a malfunction and complained to the operation manager.

[Purpose of the invention]

The present invention solves the above-mentioned drawbacks of the prior art, allows passengers who have boarded the car to naturally know which floors they can respond to as a car call, and allows passengers to perform car call response disconnection and floor operation. It is an object of the present invention to provide an elevator car call registration device that can be realized with minimal inconvenience.

[Summary of the invention]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a registrable floor display section adjacent to each car call registration button, and a control device that lights up the registrable floor display section only when the corresponding car call can be registered. It is characterized by

I'm getting angry. Also, TM is the contact point of the clock device, for example, 8:30 a.m. every day except Saturday and Sunday.
The facility is set to close only during dispatch hours from 9:05 a.m. to 9:05 a.m. Dis, D4S.

D6S is a diode.

FIG. 10 is a diagram showing a guide indicator light lighting circuit for all or a separated part of 706 (guide display window) in FIG. 1. P24 in the figure. N24 indicates a positive bus line L M S indicates a guide display rung.

Next, the operation of this embodiment configured as described above will be explained.

During normal operation to respond to all floors, car call disconnection relays/S to 7S (not shown) are all turned off, so
In the figure P24-7S-b-iIs-L7 JS-%rzS-L
7. :1s-LzaS-N 24 causes the first floor car call registration possible floor display section 710 in FIG. 1 to shine brightly. Similarly 2
All of the car call registration floor displays on floors 7 to 7 also light up, so passengers can use the push buttons near each display to operate them. By pressing the button, you can use it in the same way as a regular elevator.

For example, if the 7th floor is pressed, the car call registration relay 7K on the 7th floor turns ON as shown in FIG. 7, and a self-holding circuit is established via -a at 7 (the same applies to other floors). Therefore, in Figure 8, P24-7 -a-P7 -L71 K-L72 -L
73 becomes -L74 becomes -N24 and the light emitting diode L7
1, -L74K lights up, and the car call registration display section 709 for the 7th floor in FIG. 1 lights up, indicating that the call has been accepted.

The elevator is operated in a known manner until it reaches the 7th floor, decelerates and stops, but when it lands on the 7th floor and the car door begins to open (DZRIJ-ON), the normally closed contact of the door fully closed confirmation relay DCR closes.

Then, in Fig. 7, P-DZR-a -DCR-b -PDL-7DL-e
N is established, and the car call deletion relay 7DZ for the 7th floor is turned ON. Therefore, in Fig. 7, 7DZ-b of the O circuit opens, and 7
The self-holding circuit of the car call registration relay 7 on the floor is cut off and the 7K IJ relay is turned off. Therefore, -a opens at 7 in Figure 8, L7tK-L74K goes out, and 7 in Figure 1
The floor car call registration display section 709 disappears. As mentioned above, the surface plate 704 is made with a black face etc., so
After disappearing, only 7111 and 708 can be seen.

Next, as explained in the configuration section, by commands from the monitoring panel,
For example, assume that a command to disconnect the 2nd, 4th, and 6th floors is issued.

Since each relay of 2S, 4S, and 6S is ON, in Fig. 8, 2S-b, 4S-b, 6S
-b opens, light emitting diode group L2) S-L24SIL
Since the 4ZS-L44S and L61S to L64S are turned off, the car call registerable floor display section 71o for the second, fourth and sixth floors disappears and is no longer visible from the table, as shown in FIG.

Also, 2S-b, 4S-b, 6S- in Fig. 7
1 open, passenger operate P2, P4, P6K f
Even if it is closed, Cyu, (yu, @ will not be ONL. In other words,
Registration will be refused.

In addition, in this example, the car call that has already been registered at the terminal is not canceled and is rejected after it is answered, but for example, you can move 2S-b and place it immediately to the left of the coil. In this case, the disconnection command has priority over the registered call. At this time, as shown in Figure 1, from the passenger's perspective, the number 710 lights up only on the 1st, 3rd, 5th, and 7th floors, which are the floors where car calls can be registered, and if a car call is registered, responses will be displayed for the 5th and 7th floors. 709 also shines. On the other hand, on floors where car call registration is not possible, the head of the pushbutton is visible and it is obvious that there is no response, making it possible to create a natural and easy-to-use system that does not confuse passengers.

The present invention may be modified and implemented as listed below.

■ The above example uses a push button type, but is it a touch type? The tan method can be used in the same way.

■ The registrable display section 1702 does not necessarily have to be a floor number. The registration display section 170 may also serve as an in-store information display, or the shape of the light shielding plate and the number of series diodes may be modified.
Various modifications may be made, such as surrounding 3 with a thin rectangular band of light.

(2) In the embodiment, a light emitting diode was used as the light source in view of power consumption, brightness, lifespan, etc. However, any light source that can be incorporated, such as an incandescent lamp or a neon lamp, may be used.

■ In the example, the pushbutton and the registerable display section were constructed as separate parts, but the present invention is not limited to this.For example, it is also possible to incorporate them into a part of the pushbutton or touchbutton, and create an integrated structure that also includes a partition plate. .

(17 L) The film of 1 does not necessarily have to be in the form of a film; for example, it may be used after forming necessary holes in a metal plate or an insulating material.

(2) In the embodiment, the surface plate was manufactured as a single piece, but it may also be manufactured by dividing it into units for each floor.

■ In the example, it is made independent as an operation panel, but is it a part that is directly attached to the door pocket 5, which is said to be a return panel direct attachment method? 9, and the face grating 1713 may be abolished.

■ Can be used as both the main operation panel and the sub operation panel.

■ In Fig. 9, the car call disconnection command switch 57S-37S on any floor (for example, 55S) is displayed on the monitoring panel.
) is turned ON, the corresponding car call disconnection relay is turned on as shown in P-35S-○-N, and when the clock contact TM is turned ON during dispatch time, it is as follows.
It is clear that S and 6S are entered, and the disconnection display and operation will be performed as explained above. As shown in Figure 10, if any one of the IS-7S is turned on, (
For example, assume that 6S is turned on. ) This is because a car call separation floor occurs.

P 24-6 S-a-LMS-Nz 4 displays a guidance display such as "You can only go to floors with lit numbers" on the guidance display window 706 (Figure 4), making it even easier to understand. .

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, according to the present invention, when operating with limited floors on which car calls can be registered, the floors that can be answered and the floors that cannot be answered (separated floors) can be clearly seen, and the floors that cannot be answered while the car is running. Even if the floor is set or the settings are changed, it is automatically notified within the car. Therefore, the conventional inconvenience of being mistaken for a malfunction or being unable to board the car after unpacking the car after operating it many times is eliminated, and it is possible to provide an elevator car call registration device that provides good service.
