根據技術方案8的發明,可藉由利用一個顯示燈分別進行點亮、閃爍,來進行負載處於斷開狀態時的顯示與動作模式切換為禁止模式時的顯示,因此,無需另外設置通知單元,故具有能夠抑制成本增加的效果。According to the invention of claim 8, the display when the load is in the off state and the display when the operation mode is switched to the prohibition mode can be performed by lighting and blinking with one display lamp. Therefore, it is not necessary to separately provide the notification unit. Therefore, there is an effect that the cost increase can be suppressed.

為讓本發明之上述特徵和優點能更明顯易懂,下文特舉實施例,並配合所附圖式作詳細說明如下。The above described features and advantages of the present invention will be more apparent from the following description.

以下,參照圖式,說明將本發明的開關裝置具體化的實施形態。再者,在以下的說明中,所謂「前後方向」、「左右方向」、「上下方向」,是指以各圖中箭頭所示的方向為基準時所示的方向。Hereinafter, an embodiment in which the switch device of the present invention is embodied will be described with reference to the drawings. In the following description, the "front-rear direction", the "left-right direction", and the "up-and-down direction" refer to the directions indicated by the directions indicated by the arrows in the respective drawings.

(第1實施形態)(First embodiment)

以下,說明本發明第1實施形態的開關裝置11。Hereinafter, the switch device 11 according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described.

如圖1及圖2所示,開關裝置11包括殼體14,該殼體14包括由合成樹脂材料構成的封底箱形本體(body)12、及由相同的合成樹脂材料構成並覆蓋本體12的開口的蓋板(cover)13。在殼體14的前表面側,安裝有由例如JIS等來制定規格的嵌入型配線機器用的由金屬材料構成的固定架15。並且,開關裝置11經由固定架15而固定於建材(例如牆面等)。As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the switch device 11 includes a housing 14 including a back cover box body 12 made of a synthetic resin material, and the same synthetic resin material and covering the body 12. Open cover 13 . On the front surface side of the casing 14, a fixing frame 15 made of a metal material for an embedded wiring device having a specification such as JIS or the like is attached. Further, the switch device 11 is fixed to a building material (for example, a wall surface or the like) via the fixing frame 15.

如圖1所示,在蓋板13的前表面側,安裝有由合成樹脂材料構成的鋼琴手柄(piano handle)式的操作手柄16且可進行裝卸。而且,如圖2所示,在蓋板13的左端側,將軸部17設置在上下方向的中央附近的位置上。操作手柄16旋轉自如地受到蓋板13的軸部17的軸向支撐,藉此以可相對於殼體14而擺動的狀態得到支撐。As shown in Fig. 1, on the front surface side of the cover plate 13, a piano handle type operation handle 16 made of a synthetic resin material is attached and detachable. Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the shaft portion 17 is provided at a position near the center in the vertical direction on the left end side of the cover plate 13. The operation handle 16 is rotatably supported by the axial direction of the shaft portion 17 of the cover plate 13, thereby being supported in a state of being swingable with respect to the casing 14.

在蓋板13的右端側形成有卡止槽18(參照圖2)。另一方面,在操作手柄16的右端側,朝後方突出設置著可與卡止槽18卡止的卡止片16a(參照圖1)。並且,藉由將操作手柄16的卡止片16a卡止於蓋板13的卡止槽18中,而限定該操作手柄16的擺動範圍。而且,在該操作手柄16的前表面側,用於表示該操作手柄16的按壓操作位置的突起19(參照圖1)形成於上下方向的中央附近偏向右側的位置上。A locking groove 18 (see FIG. 2) is formed on the right end side of the cover plate 13. On the other hand, on the right end side of the operation handle 16, a locking piece 16a (refer to FIG. 1) that can be locked with the locking groove 18 is protruded rearward. Further, the swinging range of the operating handle 16 is defined by locking the locking piece 16a of the operating handle 16 in the locking groove 18 of the cover plate 13. Further, on the front surface side of the operation handle 16, a projection 19 (see FIG. 1) for indicating the pressing operation position of the operation handle 16 is formed at a position shifted to the right side in the vicinity of the center in the vertical direction.

在蓋板13與操作手柄16之間,未圖示的彈性部件(例如板片彈簧)配置於軸部17附近。並且,若朝後方對操作手柄16的突起19附近進行按壓操作,則操作手柄16便以左端側為中心朝後方轉動,並且彈性部件產生彈性變形。因此,若解除伴隨按壓操作的按壓力,則操作手柄16將隨著彈性部件的回復變形,而以左端側為中心朝前方轉動,復歸到原來的位置。An elastic member (for example, a leaf spring) (not shown) is disposed between the cover plate 13 and the operating handle 16 in the vicinity of the shaft portion 17. When the pressing operation is performed on the vicinity of the projection 19 of the operation handle 16 toward the rear, the operation handle 16 is rotated rearward about the left end side, and the elastic member is elastically deformed. Therefore, when the pressing force accompanying the pressing operation is released, the operation handle 16 is rotated forward along the left end side in accordance with the return deformation of the elastic member, and is returned to the original position.

如圖1所示,在操作手柄16上,開口窗20形成於上下方向的中央附近偏向左側的位置上。另一方面,如圖2所示,在蓋板13上,開口窗21設置於與操作手柄16的開口窗20相對應的位置上,且開口窗22設置於開口窗21的下方附近。As shown in Fig. 1, on the operation handle 16, the opening window 20 is formed at a position shifted to the left side in the vicinity of the center in the vertical direction. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 2, on the cover plate 13, the opening window 21 is provided at a position corresponding to the opening window 20 of the operation handle 16, and the opening window 22 is provided near the lower side of the opening window 21.

而且,在蓋板13上,近似T字形狀的操作片23被切削而形成於開口窗21的右方。操作片23中,沿左右方向延伸的臂(arm)部23a可在前後方向上產生彈性變形,並且該臂部23a的前端側成為沿上下方向延伸的按壓部23b。Further, on the cover plate 13, an operation piece 23 of a substantially T-shape is cut and formed on the right side of the opening window 21. In the operation piece 23, the arm portion 23a extending in the left-right direction is elastically deformable in the front-rear direction, and the front end side of the arm portion 23a is a pressing portion 23b extending in the vertical direction.

進而,在蓋板13上,沿上下方向上延伸的操作片24被切削而形成於開口窗22的右方。操作片24中,沿上下方向延伸的臂部24a可在前後方向上產生彈性變形,並且該臂部24a的前端部成為近似圓柱形狀的按壓部24b。再者,操作片23的按壓部23b形成為較操作片24的按壓部24b更向前方突出。Further, on the cover plate 13, the operation piece 24 extending in the vertical direction is cut to the right of the opening window 22. In the operation piece 24, the arm portion 24a extending in the vertical direction is elastically deformable in the front-rear direction, and the front end portion of the arm portion 24a is a pressing portion 24b having a substantially cylindrical shape. Further, the pressing portion 23b of the operation piece 23 is formed to protrude further forward than the pressing portion 24b of the operation piece 24.

若朝後方對操作手柄16的突起19附近進行按壓操作,則操作片23的按壓部23b將受到操作手柄16的按壓力。藉此,臂部23a產生彈性變形,使得按壓部23b朝後方移位。另一方面,操作片24不會因操作手柄16的按壓操作而移位,若將操作手柄16自蓋板13拆除,且朝後方對按壓部23b進行按壓操作,則臂部24a產生彈性變形。若對操作片23、24解除按壓操作,則臂部23a、24a產生回復變形,使得按壓部23b、24b復歸至原來的位置。When the pressing operation is performed on the vicinity of the projection 19 of the operation handle 16 toward the rear, the pressing portion 23b of the operation piece 23 receives the pressing force of the operating handle 16. Thereby, the arm portion 23a is elastically deformed so that the pressing portion 23b is displaced rearward. On the other hand, the operation piece 24 is not displaced by the pressing operation of the operation handle 16. When the operation handle 16 is removed from the cover 13 and the pressing portion 23b is pressed rearward, the arm portion 24a is elastically deformed. When the pressing operation is released to the operation pieces 23 and 24, the arm portions 23a and 24a are deformed in a return manner, so that the pressing portions 23b and 24b are returned to their original positions.

其次,根據圖3來說明開關裝置11的電氣構成。Next, the electrical configuration of the switching device 11 will be described with reference to Fig. 3 .

如圖3所示,開關裝置11包括由發光二極體(light-emitting diode)構成的顯示燈25、26、操作開關27、註冊按鈕(button)28、以微電腦(microcomputer)為主構成要素的控制部30、負載控制部31、作為接收單元的無線信號收發部32、天線(antenna)33、記憶部34及電源部35。再者,顯示燈25、26、操作開關27及註冊按鈕28等安裝在收納於殼體14內的印刷(print)基板(省略圖示)上。As shown in FIG. 3, the switching device 11 includes display lamps 25 and 26 composed of light-emitting diodes, an operation switch 27, a registration button 28, and a microcomputer (microcomputer) as a main component. The control unit 30, the load control unit 31, the wireless signal transmission/reception unit 32 as a reception unit, an antenna 33, a storage unit 34, and a power supply unit 35. Further, the display lamps 25 and 26, the operation switch 27, the registration button 28, and the like are mounted on a print substrate (not shown) housed in the casing 14.

負載控制部31包括開關元件SW(例如繼電器(relay)或半導體開關元件等),該開關元件SW插入安裝在自作為商用交流電源的電源AC起直至作為負載的照明負載L為止的供電電路中。根據電波法施行規則第6條第4項第2號中規定的「遙測計(telemeter)用、遙控(tele-control)用及資料傳輸用的指定低功率無線電台」,無線信號收發部32經由天線33收發以電波為媒體的無線信號。電源部35自電源AC得到供電,生成各部分的動作電源。再者,在本實施形態中,控制部30及負載控制部31構成控制單元,開關元件SW構成開閉單元。The load control unit 31 includes a switching element SW (for example, a relay or a semiconductor switching element) that is inserted into a power supply circuit that is mounted from a power source AC that is a commercial AC power source to a lighting load L that is a load. According to the radio wave method, the "determined low-power radio station for telemeter, tele-control, and data transmission" specified in Rule 6, Item 4, No. 2, the wireless signal transmitting and receiving unit 32 is via the radio signal transmitting and receiving unit 32. The antenna 33 transmits and receives a wireless signal in which a radio wave is a medium. The power supply unit 35 receives power from the power source AC to generate an operating power supply for each part. Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the control unit 30 and the load control unit 31 constitute a control unit, and the switching element SW constitutes an opening and closing unit.

若對操作手柄16進行按壓操作,則蓋板13的操作片23朝後方移位,使得按壓部23b對操作開關27的操作部(省略圖示)進行按壓操作。並且,因受到操作片23按壓操作的操作開關27自未連接著電路的OFF狀態變為連接著電路的ON狀態而輸出操作信號。再者,若解除操作手柄16的按壓操作,則操作片23復歸至原來的位置,使得操作開關27的按壓操作得以解除。When the operation handle 16 is pressed, the operation piece 23 of the cover 13 is displaced rearward, and the pressing portion 23b presses the operation portion (not shown) of the operation switch 27. Then, the operation switch 27 that is pressed by the operation piece 23 outputs an operation signal from an OFF state in which the circuit is not connected to an ON state in which the circuit is connected. Further, when the pressing operation of the operation handle 16 is released, the operation piece 23 is returned to the original position, so that the pressing operation of the operation switch 27 is released.

在作為第1模式的通常模式中,控制部30根據自操作開關27所輸出的操作信號或無線信號收發部32所接收的無線信號,進行開關元件SW的開閉控制。具體而言,控制部30輸出控制信號,且負載控制部31根據該控制信號,使開關元件SW受到開閉驅動,且使對照明負載L的供電電路開閉。In the normal mode as the first mode, the control unit 30 performs opening and closing control of the switching element SW based on the operation signal output from the operation switch 27 or the wireless signal received by the wireless signal transmission/reception unit 32. Specifically, the control unit 30 outputs a control signal, and the load control unit 31 causes the switching element SW to be driven to open and close based on the control signal, and opens and closes the power supply circuit for the illumination load L.

例如,在當供電電路為閉合狀態時,無線信號收發部32接收到無線信號的情況下,控制部30經由負載控制部31使開關元件SW受到開啟驅動,從而使對照明負載L的供電電路成為斷開狀態。而且,同樣地當供電電路為閉合狀態時,若對操作手柄16進行短按操作,則控制部30根據操作信號,經由負載控制部31使開關元件SW受到開啟驅動,從而使對照明負載L的供電電路成為斷開狀態。For example, when the wireless signal transmitting/receiving unit 32 receives the wireless signal when the power supply circuit is in the closed state, the control unit 30 causes the switching element SW to be driven to be turned on via the load control unit 31, thereby making the power supply circuit for the illumination load L Disconnected state. Further, similarly, when the power supply circuit is in the closed state, when the operation handle 16 is short-pressed, the control unit 30 causes the switching element SW to be driven to be turned on via the load control unit 31 based on the operation signal, thereby causing the illumination load L to be turned on. The power supply circuit is turned off.

再者,在本實施形態中,所謂短按操作,係指自開始按壓操作至解除為止的按壓操作時間Tp小於預先規定的規定時間Ts(Ts=按壓操作解除時刻t2-按壓操作開始時刻t1)的按壓操作,相對於此,將按壓操作時間Tp大於等於規定時間Ts的按壓操作稱為長按操作。再者,規定時間Ts可設為例如1~2秒,但亦可設定為任意的長度。In the present embodiment, the short pressing operation means that the pressing operation time Tp from the start of the pressing operation to the release is smaller than a predetermined predetermined time Ts (Ts = pressing operation release time t2 - pressing operation start time t1) On the other hand, the pressing operation in which the pressing operation time Tp is equal to or longer than the predetermined time Ts is referred to as a long pressing operation. Further, the predetermined time Ts may be, for example, 1 to 2 seconds, but may be set to an arbitrary length.

並且,若供電電路成為斷開狀態後,自電源AC對照明負載L進行供電,則照明負載L點亮(ON)。另一方面,在當供電電路為斷開狀態時,無線信號收發部32接收到無線信號的情況下,控制部30經由負載控制部31使開關元件受到關閉驅動,藉此使對照明負載L的供電電路成為閉合狀態。而且,若在供電電路為閉合狀態時對操作手柄16進行短按操作,則控制部30發送應將照明負載L熄滅的控制信號,負載控制部31使開關元件SW受到關閉驅動,從而使對照明負載L的供電電路成為閉合狀態。而且,在當供電電路為閉合狀態時,無線信號收發部32接收到無線信號的情況下,可在使開關元件SW受到開啟驅動而將照明負載L點亮之後,經過規定時間後使供電電路成為閉合狀態。並且,若使對照明負載L的供電電路成為閉合狀態,則將使照明負載L熄滅(OFF)。Then, when the power supply circuit is turned off, the lighting load L is turned on (ON) when the lighting load L is supplied from the power source AC. On the other hand, when the wireless signal transmitting/receiving unit 32 receives the wireless signal when the power supply circuit is in the off state, the control unit 30 causes the switching element to be driven off via the load control unit 31, thereby making the illumination load L The power supply circuit is in a closed state. Further, when the operation handle 16 is short-pressed when the power supply circuit is in the closed state, the control unit 30 transmits a control signal to turn off the illumination load L, and the load control unit 31 causes the switching element SW to be driven off, thereby enabling illumination. The power supply circuit of the load L is in a closed state. Further, when the wireless signal transmitting/receiving unit 32 receives the wireless signal when the power supply circuit is in the closed state, the power supply circuit can be made after the predetermined time elapses after the switching element SW is turned on and the illumination load L is turned on. Closed state. When the power supply circuit for the illumination load L is brought into a closed state, the illumination load L is turned off (OFF).

而且,控制部30在照明負載L點亮時,使顯示燈25為作為第1顯示狀態的熄滅狀態(OFF),另一方面,控制部30在照明負載L熄滅時,使顯示燈25為作為第2顯示狀態的點亮狀態(ON)。此處,顯示燈25設置在與蓋板13的開口窗21及操作手柄16的開口窗20相對應的位置上。因此,在照明負載L熄滅時,點亮後的顯示燈25的光通過開口窗20、21而朝前方照射。Further, when the illumination load L is turned on, the control unit 30 turns off the display lamp 25 as the first display state (OFF), while the control unit 30 causes the display lamp 25 to act as the illumination load L is turned off. The lighting state of the second display state (ON). Here, the display lamp 25 is disposed at a position corresponding to the opening window 21 of the cover 13 and the opening window 20 of the operation handle 16. Therefore, when the illumination load L is turned off, the light of the displayed display lamp 25 is irradiated toward the front through the opening windows 20 and 21.

即,顯示燈25根據開關元件SW的開閉狀態,藉由熄滅狀態來顯示開關元件SW為斷開狀態,另一方面,藉由點亮狀態來顯示開關元件SW為閉合狀態。而且,藉由顯示燈25點亮,而在照明負載L熄滅時顯示該操作手柄16的位置。In other words, the display lamp 25 displays the switching element SW in the off state in the off state in accordance with the open/close state of the switching element SW, and displays the switching element SW in the closed state by the lighting state. Moreover, the position of the operating handle 16 is displayed when the lighting load L is turned off by the display lamp 25 being turned on.

進而,就本實施形態的開關裝置11而言,若在通常模式下以大於等於規定時間Ts來對操作手柄16進行長按操作,則控制部30將自根據伴隨短按操作的操作信號或無線信號進行開關元件SW的開閉控制的通常模式,轉換為不根據無線信號進行開關元件SW的開閉控制的作為第2模式的禁止模式。Further, in the switch device 11 of the present embodiment, when the operation handle 16 is long-pressed for a predetermined time Ts or more in the normal mode, the control unit 30 will automatically operate from the operation signal accompanying the short press operation or wirelessly. The normal mode in which the signal is subjected to the opening and closing control of the switching element SW is converted into a prohibition mode as the second mode in which the opening and closing control of the switching element SW is not performed based on the wireless signal.

再者,在本實施形態中,控制部30的禁止模式是藉由操作手柄16的短按操作而解除並轉換為通常模式,但亦可藉由操作手柄16的長按操作而轉換為通常模式。Further, in the present embodiment, the prohibition mode of the control unit 30 is released by the short-press operation of the operation handle 16 and is switched to the normal mode, but may be converted to the normal mode by the long-press operation of the operation handle 16. .

在此種禁止模式中,控制部30以固定週期來切換顯示燈25的點亮與熄滅,使顯示燈25成為與第1顯示狀態及第2顯示狀態中之任一個均不相同的作為第3顯示狀態的閃爍狀態。即,顯示燈25構成用於顯示控制單元成為禁止模式的顯示單元,並在長按操作時,藉由閃爍狀態來顯示基於無線信號的開關元件SW的開閉控制(無線控制)變為無效的情況。In the prohibition mode, the control unit 30 switches the turning on and off of the display lamp 25 at a fixed cycle, and causes the display lamp 25 to be different from any of the first display state and the second display state. The flashing status of the status is displayed. In other words, the display lamp 25 constitutes a display unit for displaying the control unit in the prohibition mode, and when the long-pressing operation is performed, the opening/closing control (wireless control) of the switching element SW based on the wireless signal is displayed to be invalid by the blinking state. .

如圖4所示,本實施形態的開關裝置11根據自發送單元所發送的無線信號,使照明負載L點亮或熄滅,藉此可構成負載控制系統。發送單元經具體化而成為例如感測到火災而發出警報的火災報告器50A、50B、50C、用於遠距離操作照明負載L的操作終端機51、或在與對內電話分機52之間構成對內電話系統的對內電話主機53等。As shown in FIG. 4, the switching device 11 of the present embodiment can turn on or off the illumination load L based on the wireless signal transmitted from the transmitting unit, thereby configuring the load control system. The transmitting unit is embodied to be, for example, a fire reporter 50A, 50B, 50C that senses a fire and issues an alarm, an operation terminal 51 for remotely operating the lighting load L, or a configuration with the internal telephone extension 52. The inbound telephone host 53 of the internal telephone system, and the like.

在開關裝置11中,藉由分配ID編號並註冊發送單元來指定應由無線信號收發部32接收的無線信號。再者,當註冊新的發送單元時,則將操作手柄16自蓋板13拆除,並以大於等於規定時間(例如大於等於2秒)來對操作片24的按壓部24b進行長按操作。由此,移位至後方的操作片24便對註冊按鈕28的操作部進行按壓操作。In the switching device 11, the wireless signal to be received by the wireless signal transmitting and receiving unit 32 is specified by assigning an ID number and registering the transmitting unit. Further, when a new transmission unit is registered, the operation handle 16 is detached from the cover 13 and the pressing portion 24b of the operation piece 24 is subjected to a long press operation for a predetermined time or longer (for example, 2 seconds or more). Thereby, the operation piece 24 shifted to the rear performs a pressing operation on the operation portion of the registration button 28.

若對註冊按鈕28進行按壓操作,則控制部30的動作模式轉換為註冊模式,並且使顯示燈26點亮。此處,顯示燈26設置在與蓋板13的開口窗22相對應的位置上,因此若顯示燈26點亮,則顯示燈26的光將通過開口窗22而照射至前方,顯示出控制部30已轉換為註冊模式。再者,若解除按壓操作,則操作片24將復歸至原來的位置,對註冊按鈕28的按壓操作亦得以解除。When the registration button 28 is pressed, the operation mode of the control unit 30 is switched to the registration mode, and the display lamp 26 is turned on. Here, the display lamp 26 is disposed at a position corresponding to the opening window 22 of the cover plate 13, so that if the display lamp 26 is turned on, the light of the display lamp 26 will be irradiated to the front through the opening window 22, and the control portion is displayed. 30 has been converted to registration mode. Further, when the pressing operation is released, the operation piece 24 is returned to the original position, and the pressing operation of the registration button 28 is also released.

之後,若無線信號收發部32接收到應註冊而自發送單元發送的無線信號,則控制部30將該無線信號中所含的ID編號記憶於作為對自己進行分配的發送單元的記憶部34。而且,以下述方式來構成:若發送單元的註冊結束,則藉由再次對操作片24進行按壓操作,而使顯示燈26熄滅,並且控制部30自註冊模式轉換為原來的動作模式(例如,通常模式)。 After that, when the wireless signal transmitting/receiving unit 32 receives the wireless signal to be transmitted from the transmitting unit, the control unit 30 stores the ID number included in the wireless signal in the memory unit 34 as the transmitting unit that allocates itself. Further, when the registration of the transmission unit is completed, the display unit 26 is turned off by pressing the operation sheet 24 again, and the control unit 30 switches from the registration mode to the original operation mode (for example, Normal mode).

其次,說明該開關裝置11在構成上包括用於探測是否有人的人體感測器的操作終端機51與負載控制系統時的動作。 Next, the operation of the switch device 11 including the operation terminal 51 for detecting a human body sensor and the load control system will be described.

此時,若操作終端機51在探測到人體感測器的探測區域(area)內有人時發送無線信號,而當無線信號收發部32接收到該無線信號時,則控制部30經由負載控制部31使開關元件SW受到接通驅動,藉此將照明負載L點亮。因此,藉由將例如開關裝置11及作為照明負載L的燈配置在房間的中央附近,並且在房間的入口附近設定人體感測器的探測區域,便可在人進入房間時,藉由無線控制而使燈點亮。而且,藉由對開關裝置11的操作手柄16進行短按操作,亦可根據操作開關27所輸出的操作信號,使燈熄滅或點亮。 At this time, when the operation terminal 51 detects a person in the detection area of the human body sensor, a wireless signal is transmitted, and when the wireless signal transmission/reception unit 32 receives the wireless signal, the control unit 30 transmits the wireless signal via the load control unit. 31 causes the switching element SW to be driven to be turned on, thereby lighting the illumination load L. Therefore, by arranging, for example, the switch device 11 and the lamp as the illumination load L near the center of the room, and setting the detection area of the human body sensor near the entrance of the room, it is possible to wirelessly control when the person enters the room. And make the light light. Further, by performing a short press operation on the operation handle 16 of the switch device 11, the lamp can be turned off or lighted according to an operation signal output from the operation switch 27.

此處,在例如更換燈時欲維持照明負載L的熄滅狀態的情形時或清掃時等欲維持照明負載L的點亮狀態的情形時,先前的開關裝置中,若自例如該操作終端機51發送包含負載控制資訊的無線信號,則照明負載L的狀態將被切換,因此存在使作業者受驚之虞。因此,在本實施形態的開關裝置11中,控制部30的動作模式能夠切換為禁止無線信號的負載控制的禁止模式,藉由以大於等於規定時間(例如2秒)來對上述操作開關27(實際為操作手柄16)進行長按而切換為禁止模式。並且,若控制部30的動作模式切換為禁止模式,則來自各種發送單元的無線信號的負載控 制將被禁止,結果,可維持照明負載L的狀態。再者,再次對操作手柄16進行按壓操作便能解除上述禁止模式。 Here, for example, when it is desired to maintain the lighting state of the lighting load L when the lamp is replaced, or when the lighting state of the lighting load L is to be maintained during the cleaning, the previous switching device is, for example, from the operation terminal 51. When a wireless signal including load control information is transmitted, the state of the lighting load L is switched, and thus there is a fear of the operator. Therefore, in the switching device 11 of the present embodiment, the operation mode of the control unit 30 can be switched to the prohibition mode for prohibiting the load control of the wireless signal, and the operation switch 27 can be operated by a predetermined time (for example, 2 seconds). Actually, the operation handle 16) is long pressed and switched to the prohibition mode. Further, when the operation mode of the control unit 30 is switched to the disable mode, load control of wireless signals from various transmitting units is performed. The system will be disabled, and as a result, the state of the lighting load L can be maintained. Furthermore, the above-described prohibition mode can be released by pressing the operation handle 16 again.

其次,圖5是說明本實施形態的開關裝置11的動作的時序圖,在以大於等於規定時間Ts來對操作開關27進行長按而將控制部30的動作模式切換為禁止模式時,照明負載L將被強制性切換為點亮狀態或熄滅狀態,如圖5所示,本實施形態是強制性將照明負載L切換為熄滅狀態(圖中的時刻t2以後)。而且,此時,由於照明負載L處於熄滅狀態,故而顯示燈25切換為點亮狀態,以顯示開關裝置11的位置。再者,切換為禁止模式時照明負載L的點亮/熄滅狀態亦可藉由例如未圖示的切替單元而進行選擇性切換。 5 is a timing chart for explaining the operation of the switching device 11 of the present embodiment. When the operation switch 27 is long pressed for a predetermined time Ts or longer and the operation mode of the control unit 30 is switched to the prohibition mode, the lighting load is applied. L is forcibly switched to the lighting state or the extinguishing state. As shown in Fig. 5, in the present embodiment, the lighting load L is forcibly switched to the extinguishing state (after time t2 in the figure). Further, at this time, since the illumination load L is in the extinguished state, the display lamp 25 is switched to the lighting state to display the position of the switching device 11. Further, the lighting/extinguishing state of the lighting load L when switching to the prohibition mode can be selectively switched by, for example, a switching unit not shown.

此處,一般而言,由於根據按壓操作開關27的操作部(即,對操作手柄16進行按壓操作)時的信號的切換邊緣(edge)進行負載控制(參照圖5(a)),因此在將控制部30的動作模式切換為禁止模式時,在按壓該操作開關27的操作部的時刻t1時,照明負載L暫時切換為點亮狀態,並在經過規定時間Ts,控制部30的動作模式切換為禁止模式(圖5(a)中時刻t2的時間點)後,照明負載L被強制性切換為熄滅狀態。即,此時,在按壓操作開關27的操作部起直至切換為禁止模式為止的期間內,照明負載L進行多餘的點亮/熄滅動作,因此使用者會有不適感。 Here, in general, since the load is controlled by the switching edge of the signal when the operation portion of the operation switch 27 is pressed (that is, the pressing operation is performed on the operation handle 16) (refer to FIG. 5(a)), When the operation mode of the control unit 30 is switched to the prohibition mode, the illumination load L is temporarily switched to the lighting state at the time t1 when the operation unit of the operation switch 27 is pressed, and the operation mode of the control unit 30 is elapsed after the predetermined time Ts elapses. When the mode is switched to the prohibition mode (the time point of time t2 in FIG. 5(a)), the illumination load L is forcibly switched to the extinguished state. In other words, at this time, the illumination load L performs an unnecessary lighting/extinguishing operation during the period from the operation of the operation switch 27 to the prohibition mode, and the user feels uncomfortable.

另一方面,如圖5(b)所示,於根據鬆開操作開關27的操作部(即,自操作手柄16鬆手)時的信號的切換邊緣,進行負載控制時,即使例如時刻t1時按壓該操作開關27的操作部,照明負載L亦維持著目前為止的狀態(即,熄滅狀態),若經過規定時間Ts而將控制部30的動作模式切換為禁止模式(圖5(b)中時刻t2的時間點),則在圖5(b)所示的示例中,照明負載L依然為熄滅狀態,故而維持熄滅狀態。而且,在自按壓該操作開關27的操作部之後經過規定時間Ts之前鬆開上述操作部的情形時,並未切換為上述禁止模式,照明負載L點亮,並且顯示燈25熄滅(即,進行通常的點亮/熄滅動作)。On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 5(b), when the load is controlled in accordance with the switching edge of the signal when the operation portion of the operation switch 27 is released (that is, when the operation handle 16 is released), even if, for example, the time t1 is pressed. In the operation unit of the operation switch 27, the illumination load L is maintained in the current state (ie, the off state), and the operation mode of the control unit 30 is switched to the prohibition mode when the predetermined time Ts elapses (the time in FIG. 5(b) At the time point of t2), in the example shown in FIG. 5(b), the illumination load L is still in the extinguished state, and thus the extinguished state is maintained. Further, when the operation portion is released before the predetermined time Ts elapses after the operation portion of the operation switch 27 is pressed, the prohibition mode is not switched, the illumination load L is turned on, and the display lamp 25 is turned off (ie, performed). Normal lighting/extinguishing action).

此處,若在時刻t2時控制部30的動作模式切換為禁止模式,則如圖5(b)所示,顯示燈25以規定週期(例如0.25Hz)緩慢地閃爍,使用者可藉由確認該顯示燈25的顯示而獲知切換為禁止模式。此處,本實施形態是由顯示燈25來構成顯示單元。Here, when the operation mode of the control unit 30 is switched to the prohibition mode at time t2, as shown in FIG. 5(b), the display lamp 25 is slowly blinked at a predetermined cycle (for example, 0.25 Hz), and the user can confirm by The display of the display lamp 25 is known to switch to the disable mode. Here, in the present embodiment, the display unit 25 constitutes a display unit.

而且,根據本實施形態,藉由禁止無線信號的負載控制,而可防止例如更換燈時或清掃時,負載狀態藉由上述發送單元的操作而切換,結果可使作業者安心地進行作業。而且,由於可藉由對操作開關進行長按27而切換為禁止模式,故而無需另外設置用於切換為禁止模式的單元,亦可抑制成本增加(cost up),並且操作亦變得容易。進而,由於無論負載狀態無何,均可藉由一個操作而切換為禁止模式並將照明負載L熄滅(或點亮),故而可使操作省時省力,結果,操作性得以提高。Further, according to the present embodiment, by prohibiting the load control of the wireless signal, it is possible to prevent the load state from being switched by the operation of the transmitting unit, for example, when the lamp is replaced or during the cleaning, and as a result, the operator can perform the work with peace of mind. Further, since the operation switch can be switched to the prohibition mode by long pressing 27, it is not necessary to separately provide a unit for switching to the prohibition mode, and cost up can be suppressed, and the operation becomes easy. Further, since the operation can be switched to the prohibition mode by one operation and the illumination load L can be extinguished (or lit) regardless of the load state, the operation can be saved in time and effort, and as a result, the operability can be improved.

而且,在將控制部30的動作模式切換為禁止模式時,自按壓操作開關27的操作部時起直至設定為禁止模式為止之期間,可保持照明負載L的狀態,因此如同例如將按壓該操作開關27的操作部時的信號設為操作信號的情形般,直至設定為禁止模式為止的期間內不會有多餘的點亮/熄滅動作,結果可避免因多餘的點亮/熄滅動作而產生的不適感。進而,可藉由顯示燈25(顯示單元)而容易地確認是否設定為禁止模式,因此可實現便於使用的開關裝置11,而且可藉由一個顯示燈25分別進行點亮、閃爍而進行如下兩種顯示,即,照明負載L處於斷開狀態時的顯示、與控制部30的動作模式切換為禁止模式時的顯示,因此由於無需另外設置顯示單元,而可進一步抑制成本增加。Further, when the operation mode of the control unit 30 is switched to the prohibition mode, the state of the illumination load L can be maintained from the time when the operation portion of the operation switch 27 is pressed until the prohibition mode is set, so that, for example, the operation will be pressed. When the signal at the operation portion of the switch 27 is an operation signal, there is no unnecessary lighting/extinguishing operation until the standby mode is set, and as a result, unnecessary flashing/extinguishing operation can be avoided. Discomfort. Further, it is possible to easily confirm whether or not the display mode is set to the prohibition mode by the display lamp 25 (display unit). Therefore, the switch device 11 which is easy to use can be realized, and the display lamp 25 can be separately turned on and blinked to perform the following two steps. In other words, the display when the illumination load L is in the off state and the display when the operation mode of the control unit 30 is switched to the prohibition mode are displayed. Therefore, since it is not necessary to separately provide the display unit, the cost increase can be further suppressed.

再者,本實施形態中,利用位置顯示用的顯示燈25兼作用來顯示控制部30的動作模式已切換為禁止模式的顯示單元,但亦可設置與顯示燈25不同的顯示燈以作為上述顯示單元。而且,亦可藉由改變顯示燈的顏色、發光強度、或閃爍圖案(pattern)等而實現第1~3顯示狀態。Further, in the present embodiment, the display unit 25 for position display functions as a display unit for switching the operation mode of the control unit 30 to the prohibition mode, but a display lamp different from the display lamp 25 may be provided as the above. Display unit. Further, the first to third display states can be realized by changing the color, the light-emitting intensity, or the pattern of the display lamp.

顯示單元亦可設為使用發光二極體以外的照明裝置的顯示燈,且作為藉由聲音進行報告的蜂鳴器(buzzer)、或藉由文字資訊或標記(mark)來顯示通知內容的液晶面板(panel)等,亦可成為通知單元。The display unit may be a display lamp using an illumination device other than the light-emitting diode, and may be a buzzer that reports by sound or a liquid crystal that displays a notification content by text information or a mark. A panel or the like can also be a notification unit.

而且,在本實施形態中,設有用於對操作開關27進行按壓操作的操作手柄16,但亦可無需設置操作手柄,可例如直接對按壓部23b進行按壓操作。Further, in the present embodiment, the operation handle 16 for pressing the operation switch 27 is provided. However, it is not necessary to provide the operation handle, and the pressing portion 23b can be directly pressed, for example.

進而,在本實施形態中,以電波為媒體的無線信號的情形為例進行了說明,但本實施形態並非限定為無線信號,亦可以例如光為媒體。而且,在切換為禁止模式時對操作開關27進行長按的時間根據規格等進行適當設定即可。Further, in the present embodiment, the case where the radio wave is a radio signal of the medium has been described as an example. However, the present embodiment is not limited to a radio signal, and for example, the light may be a medium. In addition, the time during which the operation switch 27 is long pressed when switching to the prohibition mode may be appropriately set according to specifications or the like.

(第2實施形態)(Second embodiment)

以下,說明本發明第2實施形態的開關裝置11。本實施形態與第1實施形態的基本構成相同,不同之處在於由操作開關27的操作所進行的照明負載L及顯示燈25的動作。因此,對於與第1實施形態相同的構成元件標註相同的符號並省略其說明。Hereinafter, the switch device 11 according to the second embodiment of the present invention will be described. This embodiment is the same as the basic configuration of the first embodiment, and differs in the operation of the illumination load L and the display lamp 25 by the operation of the operation switch 27. Therefore, the same components as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and their description is omitted.

在本實施形態的開關裝置11中,若在通常模式下以大於等於規定時間Ts來對操作手柄16進行長按操作,則控制部30自根據伴隨短按操作的操作信號或無線信號進行開關元件SW的開閉控制的通常模式,轉換為不根據無線信號來進行開關元件SW的開閉控制的作為第2模式的禁止模式,並且自長按操作前的狀態使開關元件SW的開閉狀態反轉。因此,若在照明負載L熄滅時對操作手柄16進行長按操作,則照明負載L點亮,若在照明負載L點亮時對操作手柄16進行長按操作,則照明負載L熄滅。In the switch device 11 of the present embodiment, when the operation handle 16 is long-pressed by the predetermined time Ts or more in the normal mode, the control unit 30 performs the switching element from the operation signal or the wireless signal accompanying the short-press operation. The normal mode of the opening and closing control of the SW is converted into a prohibition mode as the second mode in which the opening and closing control of the switching element SW is not performed based on the wireless signal, and the opening and closing state of the switching element SW is reversed from the state before the long pressing operation. Therefore, when the operation handle 16 is long-pressed when the illumination load L is turned off, the illumination load L is turned on, and when the operation handle 16 is long-pressed when the illumination load L is turned on, the illumination load L is turned off.

此處,在不僅可藉由伴隨短按操作的操作信號而且可藉由無線信號來進行照明負載L的負載控制的通常模式中,雖然為了例如更換燈而希望將供電電路保持為閉合狀態,但是有時會在探測區域探測到他人的存在而發送無線信號,導致供電電路成為斷開狀態。Here, in a normal mode in which load control of the illumination load L can be performed not only by an operation signal accompanying a short press operation but also by a wireless signal, although it is desirable to maintain the power supply circuit in a closed state for, for example, replacing the lamp, Sometimes a wireless signal is transmitted in the detection area to detect the presence of another person, causing the power supply circuit to be turned off.

此時,藉由對開關裝置11的操作手柄16進行長按操作,而使控制部30轉換為禁止模式,使得無線信號變為無效,並且將燈保持為長按操作前的狀態即熄滅狀態。藉此,至下次對操作手柄16進行按壓操作為止,供電電路的開閉狀態不會藉由無線信號而變更,作業者因此可安心地進行燈的更換作業。而且,在控制部30成為禁止模式的情形時,由於顯示燈25進行閃爍,因此易於視覺辨識出無線信號變為無效。At this time, by performing a long press operation on the operation handle 16 of the switch device 11, the control unit 30 is switched to the prohibition mode, so that the wireless signal becomes invalid, and the lamp is maintained in the state before the long press operation, that is, the extinguished state. Thereby, until the operation of the operation handle 16 is performed next time, the open/close state of the power supply circuit is not changed by the wireless signal, and the operator can safely perform the lamp replacement operation. Further, when the control unit 30 is in the disable mode, since the display lamp 25 blinks, it is easy to visually recognize that the wireless signal is invalid.

而且,例如,在通常模式下,雖然在人體感測器的探測區域外的作業者欲保持燈的點亮狀態,但有時會由於探測區域內的他人到探測區域外而使供電電路成為閉合狀態。此時,欲保持點亮狀態的作業者使照明負載L點亮之後,藉由對操作手柄16進行長按操作,來將控制部30轉換為禁止模式,使得無線信號變為無效,並且將燈保持為長按操作前的點亮狀態。藉此,至下次對操作手柄16進行按壓操作為止不再進行無線控制,作業者因此可在期望的點亮狀態的原狀態下進行作業。Further, for example, in the normal mode, although the operator outside the detection area of the human body sensor wants to keep the lighted state of the lamp, the power supply circuit may be closed due to the fact that others in the detection area are outside the detection area. status. At this time, after the operator who wants to keep the lighting state lights up the lighting load L, the control unit 30 is switched to the prohibition mode by performing a long press operation on the operation handle 16, so that the wireless signal becomes invalid, and the light is turned on. Keep it lit before the long press operation. Thereby, the wireless control is not performed until the operation of the operation handle 16 is performed next time, and the operator can perform the work in the original state of the desired lighting state.

其次,根據圖6來說明本發明第2實施形態的開關裝置11的動作時序。Next, an operation sequence of the switching device 11 according to the second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Fig. 6 .

首先,說明在通常模式下當照明負載L為OFF狀態、顯示燈25為ON狀態時,對操作手柄16進行短按操作的情形。First, a case where the operation handle 16 is short-pressed when the illumination load L is in the OFF state and the display lamp 25 is in the ON state in the normal mode will be described.

如圖6(a)所示,若在時刻t1經由操作手柄16及操作片23,開始進行操作開關27的按壓操作,則操作開關27開始輸出一操作信號。由此,控制部30檢測到開始輸出該操作信號時的切換邊緣,並對該操作信號的輸出時間、即按壓操作時間Tp進行計數(count)(計時)。而且,控制部30以規定間隔將所計數的按壓操作時間Tp與規定時間Ts進行比較,以判斷該按壓操作時間Tp是否超過規定時間Ts。As shown in FIG. 6(a), when the operation of the operation switch 27 is started via the operation handle 16 and the operation piece 23 at time t1, the operation switch 27 starts outputting an operation signal. Thereby, the control unit 30 detects the switching edge when the operation signal is started to be output, and counts (counts) the output time of the operation signal, that is, the pressing operation time Tp. Then, the control unit 30 compares the counted pressing operation time Tp with the predetermined time Ts at a predetermined interval to determine whether or not the pressing operation time Tp exceeds the predetermined time Ts.

並且,若在時刻tr(t1<tr<t2)解除對操作開關27的按壓操作,則操作開關27結束該操作信號的輸出。而且,控制部30檢測到操作信號輸出結束時的切換邊緣,並結束對按壓操作時間Tp的計數。由此,由於計數結束時的按壓操作時間Tp小於規定時間Ts(Tp<Ts),故而控制部30判定對操作手柄16的按壓操作為短按操作,並輸出該控制信號,使開關元件SW的開閉狀態反轉,並且使顯示燈25自ON狀態切換為OFF狀態。藉此,熄滅狀態下的照明負載L成為點亮狀態,點亮狀態下的顯示燈25成為熄滅狀態。Then, when the pressing operation of the operation switch 27 is released at the time tr (t1 < tr < t2), the operation switch 27 ends the output of the operation signal. Further, the control unit 30 detects the switching edge at the end of the output of the operation signal, and ends the counting of the pressing operation time Tp. Thus, since the pressing operation time Tp at the end of counting is smaller than the predetermined time Ts (Tp<Ts), the control unit 30 determines that the pressing operation of the operating handle 16 is a short pressing operation, and outputs the control signal to cause the switching element SW. The open/close state is reversed, and the display lamp 25 is switched from the ON state to the OFF state. As a result, the illumination load L in the extinguished state is turned on, and the display lamp 25 in the turned-on state is turned off.

另一方面,若在照明負載L為ON狀態、顯示燈25為OFF狀態時,同樣地對操作手柄16進行短按操作,則照明負載L成為OFF狀態,而顯示燈25成為ON狀態。On the other hand, when the illumination load L is in the ON state and the display lamp 25 is in the OFF state, the operation handle 16 is short-pressed in the same manner, the illumination load L is turned off, and the display lamp 25 is turned on.

其次,說明在通常模式下照明負載L為OFF狀態、顯示燈25為ON狀態時,對操作手柄16進行長按操作的情形。Next, a case will be described in which the operation handle 16 is long-pressed when the illumination load L is in the OFF state and the display lamp 25 is in the ON state in the normal mode.

如圖6(b)所示,若在時刻t1經由操作手柄16及操作片23而開始對操作開關27的按壓操作,則操作開關27開始輸出一操作信號。由此,控制部30檢測到開始輸出該操作信號時的切換邊緣,並對按壓操作時間Tp進行計數。As shown in FIG. 6(b), when the pressing operation of the operation switch 27 is started via the operation handle 16 and the operation piece 23 at time t1, the operation switch 27 starts outputting an operation signal. Thereby, the control unit 30 detects the switching edge when the operation signal is started to be output, and counts the pressing operation time Tp.

並且,若該按壓操作時間Tp超過規定時間Ts(Tp≧Ts),則控制部30判定對操作手柄16的按壓操作為長按操作,從而轉換為禁止模式,使開關元件SW的開閉狀態保持為長按操作前的關閉狀態,並且使顯示燈25進行閃爍。藉此,熄滅狀態下的照明負載L繼續保持熄滅狀態,而點亮狀態下的顯示燈25則變為閃爍狀態。When the pressing operation time Tp exceeds the predetermined time Ts (Tp ≧ Ts), the control unit 30 determines that the pressing operation of the operating handle 16 is a long-pressing operation, thereby shifting to the prohibition mode, and maintaining the opening and closing state of the switching element SW as Long press the off state before the operation, and the display lamp 25 is blinked. Thereby, the illumination load L in the extinguished state continues to remain in the extinguished state, and the display lamp 25 in the lit state becomes the blinking state.

其次,說明在通常模式下照明負載L為ON狀態、顯示燈25為OFF狀態時,對操作手柄16進行長按操作的情形。Next, a case will be described in which the operation handle 16 is long-pressed when the illumination load L is in the ON state and the display lamp 25 is in the OFF state in the normal mode.

如圖6(c)所示,若在時刻t1經由操作手柄16及操作片23而開始對操作開關27的按壓操作,則操作開關27開始一操作信號的輸出。由此,控制部30檢測到開始輸出該操作信號時的切換邊緣,並對該按壓操作時間Tp進行計數。As shown in FIG. 6(c), when the pressing operation of the operation switch 27 is started via the operation handle 16 and the operation piece 23 at time t1, the operation switch 27 starts the output of an operation signal. Thereby, the control unit 30 detects the switching edge when the operation signal is started to be output, and counts the pressing operation time Tp.

並且,若該按壓操作時間Tp超過規定時間Ts(Tp≧Ts),則控制部30判定對操作手柄16的按壓操作為長按操作,從而轉換為禁止模式,將開關元件SW的開閉狀態保持為長按操作前的開啟狀態,並且使顯示燈25進行閃爍。藉此,點亮狀態下的照明負載L繼續保持為點亮狀態,而熄滅狀態下的顯示燈25則變為閃爍狀態。When the pressing operation time Tp exceeds the predetermined time Ts (Tp ≧ Ts), the control unit 30 determines that the pressing operation of the operating handle 16 is a long pressing operation, thereby shifting to the prohibition mode, and maintaining the opening and closing state of the switching element SW as Long press the on state before the operation, and the display lamp 25 is blinked. Thereby, the lighting load L in the lighting state continues to be in the lighting state, and the display lamp 25 in the extinguishing state is in the blinking state.

如上所述,在通常模式下,在該按壓操作時間Tp小於規定時間Ts的情形時,控制部30輸出用於使開關元件SW的開閉狀態反轉的控制信號,在該按壓操作時間Tp大於等於規定時間Ts的情形時,控制部30不輸出用於使開關元件SW的開閉狀態反轉的控制信號,而是轉換為禁止模式。As described above, in the normal mode, when the pressing operation time Tp is smaller than the predetermined time Ts, the control unit 30 outputs a control signal for inverting the opening and closing state of the switching element SW, and the pressing operation time Tp is equal to or greater than When the time Ts is specified, the control unit 30 does not output a control signal for inverting the open/close state of the switching element SW, but converts it to the prohibition mode.

此處,若例如控制部30檢測出開始輸出一操作信號時的切換邊緣時、即,操作部的按壓操作開始時,輸出控制信號,使開關元件SW的開閉狀態反轉,則長按操作時開關元件SW的開閉狀態保持為長按操作前的狀態,故在時刻t1與時刻t2時使開關元件SW受到開閉驅動。即,由於直至轉換為禁止模式為止進行多餘的點亮‧熄滅,故存在導致使用者有不適感之虞。When, for example, when the control unit 30 detects the switching edge when the operation signal is started to be output, that is, when the pressing operation of the operation unit is started, the control unit 30 outputs a control signal to reverse the opening and closing state of the switching element SW, and the operation is performed during the long press operation. Since the open/close state of the switching element SW is maintained in the state before the long press operation, the switching element SW is driven to open and close at time t1 and time t2. In other words, since the unnecessary lighting and the extinguishing are performed until the transition to the prohibition mode, the user feels uncomfortable.

針對於此,本實施形態的開關裝置11是在判定出按壓操作為短按操作抑或是長按操作之後進行開關元件SW的開閉控制,因此可避免照明負載L多餘地進行點亮‧熄滅,從而提高了操作性。In response to this, the switching device 11 of the present embodiment controls the opening and closing of the switching element SW after determining whether the pressing operation is a short pressing operation or a long pressing operation. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the lighting load L from being excessively turned on and off. Improved operability.

根據以上說明的本實施形態,可獲得如下所述的效果。According to the embodiment described above, the following effects can be obtained.

(1)由於可經由共用的操作部進行開關元件SW的開閉控制與控制部30向禁止模式的轉換,故而無需為了控制部30轉換為禁止模式而具備專用的操作開關,故可以簡單的構成來實現開關裝置11。並且,藉由操作手柄16的長按操作,而將控制部30的動作模式自通常模式轉換為不根據無線信號進行開關元件SW的開閉控制的禁止模式,並且將開關元件SW的開閉狀態保持為長按操作前的狀態,因此可使基於無線信號的負載控制變為無效,並且保持期望的負載狀態。並且,無需改變負載狀態便能轉換為禁止模式,因此可實現便於使用者理解的負載控制。(1) Since the opening and closing control of the switching element SW and the conversion of the control unit 30 to the prohibition mode can be performed via the shared operation unit, it is not necessary to provide a dedicated operation switch for the control unit 30 to be switched to the prohibition mode, so that it can be easily configured. The switching device 11 is implemented. Further, by the long press operation of the operation handle 16, the operation mode of the control unit 30 is switched from the normal mode to the prohibition mode in which the opening and closing control of the switching element SW is not performed based on the wireless signal, and the opening and closing state of the switching element SW is maintained as The state before the operation is long pressed, so that the load control based on the wireless signal can be made invalid, and the desired load state is maintained. Moreover, it is possible to switch to the prohibition mode without changing the load state, so that load control that is easy for the user to understand can be realized.

(2)在該按壓操作時間Tp小於規定時間Ts的情形時,控制部30使開關元件SW的開閉狀態反轉。即,若在操作部的按壓操作開始時立即使開關元件SW的開閉狀態反轉,則在長按操作時,會經過規定時間Ts後再次使開閉狀態反轉,從而進行多餘的開閉控制。就此點而言,在本構成中,控制部30是在確認了該按壓操作時間Tp小於規定時間Ts之後進行開關元件SW的開閉控制,因此可避免供電電路多餘地開閉。(2) When the pressing operation time Tp is less than the predetermined time Ts, the control unit 30 inverts the opening and closing state of the switching element SW. In other words, when the opening and closing state of the switching element SW is reversed immediately after the pressing operation of the operation unit is started, the opening and closing state is reversed again after the predetermined time Ts elapses during the long-press operation, and the unnecessary opening and closing control is performed. In this regard, in the present configuration, the control unit 30 controls the opening and closing of the switching element SW after confirming that the pressing operation time Tp is less than the predetermined time Ts. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the power supply circuit from being excessively opened and closed.

再者,上述實施形態亦可如下所述進行變更而實施。Furthermore, the above embodiment can be implemented by being modified as described below.

‧控制部30亦可在解除操作部的按壓操作之後,轉換為禁止模式。此時,可使向禁止模式的轉換與顯示燈25閃爍開始的時序一致,亦可在該按壓操作時間Tp到達規定時間Ts的時刻使顯示燈25開始閃爍,而在解除操作部的按壓操作之後,轉換為禁止模式。即便藉由上述構成,亦可在確切地判斷出是否對操作部進行長按操作之後,輸出與操作狀態相對應的控制信號。‧ The control unit 30 may also switch to the prohibition mode after the pressing operation of the operation unit is released. At this time, the transition to the prohibition mode can be made coincident with the timing at which the display lamp 25 blinks, and the display lamp 25 can be started to blink when the push operation time Tp reaches the predetermined time Ts, and after the pressing operation of the operation portion is released , converted to disabled mode. Even with the above configuration, it is possible to determine whether or not the operation unit is subjected to the long press operation, and then output a control signal corresponding to the operation state.

‧亦可採用輸出類比(analog)式操作信號的操作開關,藉由操作開關的輸出值是否大於等於規定值,而判定是否輸出了伴隨按壓操作的操作信號。或者,亦可採用輸出數位(digital)式操作信號的操作開關,並藉由檢測到OFF信號與ON信號的切換邊緣,而判定是否輸出了伴隨按壓操作的操作信號。‧ It is also possible to use an operation switch that outputs an analog operation signal, and determines whether an operation signal accompanying the pressing operation is output by whether or not the output value of the operation switch is greater than or equal to a predetermined value. Alternatively, an operation switch for outputting a digital operation signal may be employed, and by detecting a switching edge of the OFF signal and the ON signal, it is determined whether or not an operation signal accompanying the pressing operation is output.

(實施形態3)(Embodiment 3)

以下,說明本發明第3實施形態的開關裝置11。本實施形態與第1實施形態的基本構成相同,而不同之處在於藉由操作開關27的操作所進行的照明負載L及顯示燈25的動作。因此,對於與第1實施形態相同的構成元件標註相同的符號並省略其說明。Hereinafter, a switch device 11 according to a third embodiment of the present invention will be described. This embodiment is the same as the basic configuration of the first embodiment, and differs in the operation of the illumination load L and the display lamp 25 by the operation of the operation switch 27. Therefore, the same components as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and their description is omitted.

在本實施形態中,可藉由對開關裝置11的操作手柄16進行長按操作,而使控制部30轉換為禁止模式從而使無線信號變為無效,並且可使燈由長按操作前的點亮狀態反轉。即,可將無意中藉由無線控制而點亮的燈熄滅,而且直至下次對操作手柄16進行按壓操作為止禁止無線控制,因此可安心地進行燈的更換作業。而且,在控制部30為禁止模式的情形時,顯示燈25進行閃爍,因此容易地以視覺辨識出無線信號變為無效。In the present embodiment, by performing a long press operation on the operation handle 16 of the switch device 11, the control unit 30 can be switched to the disable mode to disable the wireless signal, and the light can be turned on before the long press operation. The light state is reversed. In other words, the lamp that is inadvertently lit by the wireless control can be turned off, and the wireless control can be prohibited until the operation of the operation handle 16 is performed next time. Therefore, the lamp replacement operation can be performed with peace of mind. Further, when the control unit 30 is in the prohibition mode, the display lamp 25 blinks, so that it is easy to visually recognize that the wireless signal is invalid.

而且,例如在通常模式下,有時雖然在人體感測器的探測區域外的作業者欲保持燈的點亮狀態,但由於探測區域內的其他人到探測區域外而導致供電電路成為閉合狀態。此時,作業者可藉由對操作手柄16進行長按操作,而使控制部30轉換為禁止模式,從而使無線信號變為無效,並且使燈由長按操作前的點亮狀態反轉。即,可將無意中藉由無線控制而熄滅的燈點亮,並且直至下次對操作手柄16進行按壓操作為止禁止無線控制,作業者因此可於期望的點亮狀態的原狀態下進行作業。Moreover, for example, in the normal mode, although the operator outside the detection area of the human body sensor wants to keep the lighting state of the lamp, the power supply circuit is closed because other people in the detection area are outside the detection area. . At this time, the operator can cause the control unit 30 to switch to the prohibition mode by performing a long press operation on the operation handle 16, thereby making the wireless signal invalid, and inverting the lamp from the lighting state before the long press operation. In other words, the lamp that is inadvertently turned off by the wireless control can be turned on, and the wireless control can be prohibited until the operation of the operation handle 16 is performed next time, so that the operator can perform the work in the original state of the desired lighting state.

其次,根據圖7,說明本發明第3實施形態的開關裝置11的動作時序。Next, an operation sequence of the switching device 11 according to the third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Fig. 7 .

首先,說明在通常模式下照明負載L為OFF狀態、顯示燈25為ON狀態時,對操作手柄16進行短按操作的情形。First, a case where the operation load 16 is short-pressed when the illumination load L is in the OFF state and the display lamp 25 is in the ON state in the normal mode will be described.

如圖7(a)所示,若在時刻t1經由操作手柄16及操作片23開始對操作開關27進行按壓操作,則操作開關27開始輸出一操作信號。由此,控制部30檢測到開始輸出該操作信號時的切換邊緣,而使開關元件SW的開閉狀態反轉,並且將顯示燈25自ON狀態切換為OFF狀態。而且,控制部30對操作信號的輸出時間、即,該按壓操作時間Tp進行計數(計時),並以規定間隔來與規定時間Ts進行比較,藉此來判斷該按壓操作時間Tp是否超過規定時間Ts。As shown in FIG. 7(a), when the operation switch 27 is pressed by the operation handle 16 and the operation piece 23 at time t1, the operation switch 27 starts outputting an operation signal. Thereby, the control unit 30 detects the switching edge when the operation signal is started to be output, reverses the opening and closing state of the switching element SW, and switches the display lamp 25 from the ON state to the OFF state. Further, the control unit 30 counts (times) the output time of the operation signal, that is, the pressing operation time Tp, and compares it with the predetermined time Ts at a predetermined interval, thereby determining whether or not the pressing operation time Tp exceeds the predetermined time. Ts.

並且,若在時刻tr(t1<tr<t2)解除該操作開關27的按壓操作,則該操作開關27結束該操作信號的輸出。而且,控制部30檢測到操作信號輸出結束時的切換邊緣,從而結束該按壓操作時間Tp的計數。由此,由於計數結束時的按壓操作時間Tp小於規定時間Ts(Tp<Ts),故而控制部30判定對操作手柄16的按壓操作為短按操作,從而結束處理。藉此,熄滅狀態下的照明負載L反轉為點亮狀態,而點亮狀態下的顯示燈25則成為熄滅狀態。Then, when the pressing operation of the operation switch 27 is released at the time tr (t1 < tr < t2), the operation switch 27 ends the output of the operation signal. Further, the control unit 30 detects the switching edge at the end of the output of the operation signal, thereby ending the counting of the pressing operation time Tp. Thus, since the pressing operation time Tp at the end of counting is smaller than the predetermined time Ts (Tp<Ts), the control unit 30 determines that the pressing operation of the operating handle 16 is a short pressing operation, and ends the processing. Thereby, the illumination load L in the extinguished state is reversed to the lighting state, and the display lamp 25 in the lighting state is turned off.

另一方面,若在照明負載L為ON狀態、顯示燈25為OFF狀態時,同樣地對操作手柄16進行短按操作,則照明負載L成為OFF狀態,而顯示燈25成為ON狀態。On the other hand, when the illumination load L is in the ON state and the display lamp 25 is in the OFF state, the operation handle 16 is short-pressed in the same manner, the illumination load L is turned off, and the display lamp 25 is turned on.

其次,說明在通常模式下照明負載L為OFF狀態、顯示燈25為ON狀態時,對操作手柄16進行長按操作的情形。Next, a case will be described in which the operation handle 16 is long-pressed when the illumination load L is in the OFF state and the display lamp 25 is in the ON state in the normal mode.

如圖7(b)所示,若在時刻t1經由操作手柄16及操作片23開始操作開關27的按壓操作,則操作開關27開始輸出一操作信號。由此,控制部30檢測到該操作信號輸出開始時的切換邊緣,而使開關元件SW的開閉狀態反轉,並且將顯示燈25自ON狀態切換為OFF狀態。而且,控制部30對該按壓操作時間Tp進行計數,並以規定間隔來與規定時間Ts進行比較,藉此判斷該按壓操作時間Tp是否超過規定時間Ts。As shown in FIG. 7(b), when the pressing operation of the operation switch 27 is started via the operation handle 16 and the operation piece 23 at time t1, the operation switch 27 starts outputting an operation signal. Thereby, the control unit 30 detects the switching edge at the start of the output of the operation signal, reverses the opening and closing state of the switching element SW, and switches the display lamp 25 from the ON state to the OFF state. Then, the control unit 30 counts the pressing operation time Tp and compares it with the predetermined time Ts at a predetermined interval, thereby determining whether or not the pressing operation time Tp exceeds the predetermined time Ts.

並且,若該按壓操作時間Tp超過規定時間Ts(Tp≧Ts),則控制部30判定對操作手柄16的按壓操作為長按操作,從而轉換為禁止模式,並且使顯示燈25進行閃爍。藉此,熄滅狀態下的照明負載L反轉為點亮狀態,而顯示燈25成為閃爍狀態。When the pressing operation time Tp exceeds the predetermined time Ts (Tp ≧ Ts), the control unit 30 determines that the pressing operation of the operating handle 16 is a long-pressing operation, thereby shifting to the prohibition mode, and causing the display lamp 25 to blink. Thereby, the illumination load L in the extinguished state is reversed to the lighting state, and the display lamp 25 is in the blinking state.

其次,說明在通常模式下照明負載L為ON狀態、顯示燈25為OFF狀態時,對操作手柄16進行長按操作的情形。Next, a case will be described in which the operation handle 16 is long-pressed when the illumination load L is in the ON state and the display lamp 25 is in the OFF state in the normal mode.

如圖7(c)所示,若在時刻t1經由操作手柄16及操作片23開始操作開關27的按壓操作,則操作開關27開始輸出一操作信號。由此,控制部30檢測到該操作信號輸出開始時的切換邊緣,而使開關元件SW的開閉狀態反轉,並且將顯示燈25自OFF狀態切換為ON狀態。而且,控制部30對該按壓操作時間Tp進行計數,並以規定間隔來與規定時間Ts進行比較,藉此判斷該按壓操作時間Tp是否超過規定時間Ts。As shown in FIG. 7(c), when the pressing operation of the operation switch 27 is started via the operation handle 16 and the operation piece 23 at time t1, the operation switch 27 starts outputting an operation signal. Thereby, the control unit 30 detects the switching edge at the start of the output of the operation signal, reverses the opening and closing state of the switching element SW, and switches the display lamp 25 from the OFF state to the ON state. Then, the control unit 30 counts the pressing operation time Tp and compares it with the predetermined time Ts at a predetermined interval, thereby determining whether or not the pressing operation time Tp exceeds the predetermined time Ts.

並且,若該按壓操作時間Tp超過規定時間Ts(Tp≧Ts),則控制部30判定對操作手柄16的按壓操作為長按操作,從而轉換為禁止模式,並且使顯示燈25進行閃爍。藉此,點亮狀態下的照明負載L反轉為熄滅狀態,而顯示燈25成為閃爍狀態。When the pressing operation time Tp exceeds the predetermined time Ts (Tp ≧ Ts), the control unit 30 determines that the pressing operation of the operating handle 16 is a long-pressing operation, thereby shifting to the prohibition mode, and causing the display lamp 25 to blink. Thereby, the illumination load L in the lighting state is reversed to the extinguished state, and the display lamp 25 is in the blinking state.

如上所述,在通常模式下,在控制部30檢測到操作信號輸出開始時的切換邊緣時、即,操作部的按壓操作開始時,使開關的開閉狀態反轉,藉此,無論短按操作的情形時抑或是長按操作的情形時,均可快速地進行照明負載L的負載控制。而且,由於在按壓操作時間Tp超過了規定時間Ts的情形時自通常模式轉換為禁止模式,進而在禁止模式下,在操作部的按壓操作開始時自禁止模式轉換為通常模式,故而可藉由對用於進行照明負載L的負載控制的操作手柄16進行操作,而快速地對控制部30的動作模式進行控制。As described above, in the normal mode, when the control unit 30 detects the switching edge at the start of the operation signal output, that is, when the pressing operation of the operation unit is started, the opening and closing state of the switch is reversed, whereby the short pressing operation is performed. The load control of the lighting load L can be quickly performed in the case of a long-press operation or a long-press operation. Further, since the normal operation mode is switched to the prohibition mode when the pressing operation time Tp exceeds the predetermined time Ts, and in the prohibition mode, the self-prohibition mode is switched to the normal mode at the start of the pressing operation of the operation portion, and thus The operation handle 16 for performing load control of the lighting load L is operated to quickly control the operation mode of the control unit 30.

此處,當禁止模式轉換時,欲將開關元件SW的開閉狀態保持為長按操作前的狀態的情形下,為了避免多餘的開閉控制,而必需分辨是否為長按操作之後,再進行負載控制。因此,亦在進行伴隨短按操作的負載控制時,為了確認為短按操作,而必需等待至解除短按操作為止,再進行負載控制。針對此,在本實施形態中,由於在禁止模式移行時使開關元件SW的開閉狀態反轉,故而無需等待短按操作的解除,便可快速地進行負載控制。Here, when the mode switching is prohibited, if the opening and closing state of the switching element SW is to be maintained in the state before the long pressing operation, in order to avoid unnecessary opening and closing control, it is necessary to distinguish whether or not the long pressing operation is performed, and then load control is performed. . Therefore, when the load control with the short press operation is performed, in order to confirm the short press operation, it is necessary to wait until the short press operation is released, and then perform load control. In this regard, in the present embodiment, since the opening and closing state of the switching element SW is reversed during the prohibition mode transition, the load control can be quickly performed without waiting for the release of the short pressing operation.

根據以上說明的本實施形態,可獲得如下所述的效果。According to the embodiment described above, the following effects can be obtained.

(1)由於可經由共用的操作部來進行開關元件SW的開閉控制與控制部30向禁止模式的轉換,故而無需為了控制部30向禁止模式的轉換而具備專用的操作開關,從而可以簡單的構成來實現開關裝置11。並且,藉由操作手柄16的長按操作,而將控制部30的動作模式自通常模式轉換為不根據無線信號來進行開關元件SW的開閉控制的禁止模式,並且使開關元件SW的開閉狀態自長按操作前的狀態反轉,因此可使基於無線信號的負載控制變為無效,並且可設定期望的負載狀態。(1) Since the opening and closing control of the switching element SW and the conversion of the control unit 30 to the prohibition mode can be performed via the shared operation unit, it is not necessary to provide a dedicated operation switch for the conversion of the control unit 30 to the prohibition mode, which is simple. The switch device 11 is constructed. Further, by the long-press operation of the operation handle 16, the operation mode of the control unit 30 is switched from the normal mode to the prohibition mode in which the opening and closing control of the switching element SW is not performed based on the wireless signal, and the opening and closing state of the switching element SW is self-contained. The state before the long press operation is reversed, so that the load control based on the wireless signal can be made invalid, and the desired load state can be set.

(2)在第1模式中,控制部30在操作部的按壓操作開始時使開關元件SW的開閉狀態反轉,因此可快速地進行開關元件的開閉控制。而且,在該按壓操作時間Tp超過規定時間Ts的情形時,自通常模式轉換為禁止模式,因此可在確切地判斷出是否對操作部進行長按操作之後,轉換為禁止模式。(2) In the first mode, the control unit 30 reverses the opening and closing state of the switching element SW at the start of the pressing operation of the operation unit, so that the switching element can be quickly opened and closed. Further, when the pressing operation time Tp exceeds the predetermined time Ts, the normal mode is switched to the prohibition mode, so that it is possible to determine whether or not the operation unit is subjected to the long press operation, and then to the prohibition mode.

再者,上述實施形態亦可如下所述進行變更而實施。Furthermore, the above embodiment can be implemented by being modified as described below.

‧控制部30亦可在通常模式下,在解除操作部的按壓操作時、即,檢查出操作信號輸出結束時的切換邊緣的情形下,使開關元件SW的開閉狀態反轉。藉此,可在確切地判斷出是否對操作部進行長按操作之後,使開關元件SW的開閉狀態反轉。In the normal mode, the control unit 30 may invert the open/close state of the switching element SW when the switching operation of the operation unit is stopped, that is, when the switching edge at the end of the operation signal output is detected. Thereby, it is possible to invert the open/close state of the switching element SW after determining whether or not the operation unit is subjected to the long press operation.

而且,在按壓操作開始時使開關元件SW的開閉狀態反轉的情形時,若在例如照明負載L為ON狀態時進行長按操作,則會在長按操作的過程中使照明負載L變為OFF狀態,導致使用者難以操作的問題。針對此,若如上述構成般,在解除按壓操作時使開閉狀態反轉,則使用者可對使開閉狀態反轉的時序進行任意地調整,因此可避免上述問題。When the opening and closing state of the switching element SW is reversed at the start of the pressing operation, if the long pressing operation is performed when, for example, the lighting load L is in the ON state, the lighting load L is changed during the long pressing operation. The OFF state causes problems that are difficult for the user to operate. With this configuration, as described above, when the opening and closing state is reversed when the pressing operation is released, the user can arbitrarily adjust the timing at which the opening and closing state is reversed, so that the above problem can be avoided.

‧控制部30亦可在解除操作部的長按操作之後、即,檢測到操作信號輸出結束時的切換邊緣的情形時,轉換為禁止模式。藉此,可在確切地判斷出是否對操作部進行長按操作之後,轉換為禁止模式。‧ The control unit 30 may also switch to the prohibition mode after the long-press operation of the operation unit is released, that is, when the switching edge at the end of the operation signal output is detected. Thereby, it is possible to switch to the prohibition mode after determining whether or not the operation unit is subjected to the long press operation.
