Abstract

A door sensor device capable of inexpensively and accurately detecting an obstacle at a doorway opened and closed by a slide door. A first reflection mirror is provided on one side of the doorway and a light projector/receiver is placed on the other side of the doorway with the doorway in between the them. The light projector/receiver has a second reflection mirror facing the first reflection mirror, a light projection section placed above the second reflection mirror, and a light receiving section placed below the second reflection mirror. The light projector/receiver is constructed such that a light beam emitted from the light projection section is received by the light receiving section after being reflected multiple times by the first and second reflection mirrors. When the light beam emitted from the light projection section is not received by the light receiving section, the door sensor device detects the presence of an obstacle on the doorway.

[0001] この発明は、スライドドアによって開閉される出入口の障害物を検出するドアセンサ 装置に関するものである。 背景技術  The present invention relates to a door sensor device that detects an obstacle at an entrance that is opened and closed by a slide door. Background art
[0002] スライドドアによって出入口が開閉される建築物の玄関やエレベータ等には、出入 口の障害物を検出するドアセンサ装置を備えることにより、閉鎖動作中のスライドドア に通行人が挟まれたり、異物が衝突したりすることを防止したものがある。  [0002] Entrances and elevators of buildings whose doorways are opened and closed by sliding doors are equipped with door sensor devices that detect obstacles at the doorways, so that passersby can be sandwiched between sliding doors during closing, Some have prevented foreign objects from colliding.
[0003] このようなドアセンサ装置として、例えば、出入口を間に挟んで互いに対向するよう に発光素子と受光素子とを配置したものが従来力も提案されている。力かるドアセン サ装置では、スライドドアの閉鎖動作中に発光素子力 の光が受光素子によって検 出できない場合に、出入口の障害物の存在を検出する。しかし、上記構成のドアセン サ装置では、その据付時に、発光素子からの光を受光素子に確実に受光させるため の光軸調整が必要となり、作業性が悪いといった問題があった。また、発光素子及びAs such a door sensor device, for example, an arrangement in which a light emitting element and a light receiving element are arranged so as to face each other with an entrance / exit interposed therebetween has also been proposed. The powerful door sensor device detects the presence of an obstacle at the doorway when light from the light emitting element cannot be detected by the light receiving element during the closing operation of the sliding door. However, the door sensor device having the above-described configuration has a problem in that workability is poor because it is necessary to adjust the optical axis so that the light-receiving element receives light from the light-emitting element at the time of installation. In addition, the light emitting element and
Z又は受光素子力 sスライドドアの端面部等に設けられている場合には、閉鎖動作中 のスライドドアのがたつきによって受光状態が悪くなり、誤検出が発生する恐れもあつ た。 When Z or light receiving element force s is provided on the end face of the sliding door, etc., the light receiving state deteriorates due to rattling of the sliding door during the closing operation, which may cause false detection.
[0004] なお、上記問題を解決するため、出入口を間に挟んで、一方に発光素子と受光素 子とを交互に複数配置し、他方に発光素子からの光を受光素子に向力つて反射させ る反射器を配置したドアセンサ装置が提案されている (例えば、特許文献 1参照)。か 力るドアセンサ装置では、発光素子からの光が、上下方向には広角に、出入方向に は狭角に出射され、 1つの発光素子力 の光が複数の受光素子によって受光される 。そして、受光素子全体が受光する光の強度変化により、出入口の障害物を検出す るように構成している。  [0004] In order to solve the above problem, a plurality of light emitting elements and light receiving elements are alternately arranged on one side with the doorway interposed therebetween, and the light from the light emitting elements is reflected on the other side by directing the light to the light receiving element. There has been proposed a door sensor device in which a reflector to be arranged is arranged (see, for example, Patent Document 1). In such a door sensor device, light from the light emitting element is emitted at a wide angle in the vertical direction and at a narrow angle in the entrance / exit direction, and light of one light emitting element force is received by a plurality of light receiving elements. Then, an obstacle at the entrance / exit is detected by a change in intensity of light received by the entire light receiving element.

発明の開示 発明が解決しょうとする課題 Disclosure of the invention Problems to be solved by the invention
[0006] 特許文献 1記載のドアセンサ装置では、反射器によって反射された発光素子からの 光力 直接受光素子に入射される。このため、 1つの発光素子からの光によって障害 物を検出できる範囲が狭ぐ広範囲 (特に、上下方向)の検出が必要な場合には、多 数の発光素子及び受光素子が必要となって、コスト高を招来する要因となっていた。 なお、上記ドアセンサ装置においてコストを削減させるためには、発光素子ゃ受光 素子の数を減少させる必要がある。しかし、発光素子及び Z又は受光素子を減少さ せた場合には、その検出精度が大幅に悪ィ匕する恐れがあった。  [0006] In the door sensor device described in Patent Document 1, the light force from the light emitting element reflected by the reflector is directly incident on the light receiving element. For this reason, when it is necessary to detect a wide range (especially in the vertical direction) where the range in which an obstacle can be detected by light from one light emitting element is required, a large number of light emitting elements and light receiving elements are required. This was a factor incurring high costs. In order to reduce the cost in the door sensor device, it is necessary to reduce the number of light emitting elements or light receiving elements. However, when the number of light emitting elements and Z or light receiving elements is reduced, the detection accuracy may be greatly deteriorated.
[0007] この発明は、上述のような課題を解決するためになされたもので、その目的は、スラ イドドアによって開閉される出入口の障害物を、安価に且つ精度良く検出することが できるドアセンサ装置を提供することである。  [0007] The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a door sensor device that can detect an obstacle at an entrance that is opened and closed by a slide door at low cost and with high accuracy. Is to provide.

[0013] 実施の形態 1.  Embodiment 1.
図 1はこの発明の実施の形態 1におけるドアセンサ装置を示す正面図、図 2はこの 発明の実施の形態 1におけるドアセンサ装置の動作を示す図である。先ず、図 1に基 づいて、スライドドアによって開閉される出入口の障害物を検出するドアセンサ装置 の構成について説明する。  FIG. 1 is a front view showing a door sensor device according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an operation of the door sensor device according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. First, based on FIG. 1, the configuration of a door sensor device that detects an obstacle at an entrance that is opened and closed by a sliding door will be described.
[0014] 1は建築物の玄関やエレベータのかご等に形成された出入口、 2及び 3は出入口 1 を開閉する両開き方式のスライドドア、 4は一方のスライドドア 2の出入口 1側端部に 設けられた反射器、 5は他方のスライドドア 3の出入口 1側端部に設けられた投受光 器である。ここで、反射器 4には反射ミラー 6 (第 1反射ミラー)が、また、投受光器 5に は複数 の投受光部 7が出入口 1の上下に渡って設けられ、上記反射ミラー 6と各投 受光部 7とが、出入口 1を間に挟んで互いに対向するように配置されている。即ち、出 入口 1の一側に反射ミラー 6が、出入口 1の他側に各投受光部 7が設けられている。  [0014] 1 is an entrance / exit formed at the entrance of a building, elevator car, etc. 2 and 3 are sliding doors of a double-opening system that opens and closes the entrance 1 The reflector 5 is a light emitter / receiver provided at the end of the other sliding door 3 at the entrance / exit 1 side. Here, the reflector 4 is provided with a reflecting mirror 6 (first reflecting mirror), and the light projector / receiver 5 is provided with a plurality of light projecting / receiving sections 7 extending above and below the entrance / exit 1. The light projecting / receiving unit 7 is arranged so as to face each other with the doorway 1 in between. That is, the reflection mirror 6 is provided on one side of the entrance / exit 1, and the light projecting / receiving units 7 are provided on the other side of the entrance / exit 1.
[0015] 上記各投受光部 7には、出入口 1を間に挟んで反射ミラー 6に対向するように配置 された反射ミラー 8 (第 2反射ミラー)と、反射ミラー 8の上方に配置された投光部 9と、 反射ミラー 8の下方に配置された受光部 10とが備えられている。ここで、上記投光部 9は、略平行に対向配置された反射ミラー 6及び 8の両反射面に挟まれた空間(以下 、「平行鏡空間」という)内に、出入口 1を横切るように、所定の角度を有して下方に向 力つて光線を照射する。そして、投光部 9から照射された光線は、反射ミラー 6及び 8 によって複数回反射されながら下方に進み、平行鏡空間を通過した後、上記受光部 10によって受光される。なお、投光部 9を反射ミラー 8の下方に、受光部 10を反射ミ ラー 8の上方に配置して、反射ミラー 8、投光部 9、受光部 10を、上記とは上下逆の配 置にしても構わない。かかる場合、投光部 9から照射される光線は、出入口 1を横切り 、且つ、所定の角度を有して上方に向力うように平行鏡空間内に入射される。そして 、反射ミラー 6及び 8によって複数回反射された後、受光部 10によって受光される。ま た、 11は各投受光部 7の投光部 9及び受光部 10等の動作を制御したり、受光部 10 により検出された信号に基づいて出入口 1の障害物の有無を判定したりする制御用 CPUである。 Each of the light projecting / receiving units 7 is disposed above the reflecting mirror 8 and a reflecting mirror 8 (second reflecting mirror) disposed so as to face the reflecting mirror 6 with the entrance / exit 1 interposed therebetween. A light projecting unit 9 and a light receiving unit 10 disposed below the reflecting mirror 8 are provided. Here, the light projecting unit 9 crosses the entrance / exit 1 in a space (hereinafter referred to as a “parallel mirror space”) sandwiched between the reflecting surfaces of the reflecting mirrors 6 and 8 disposed substantially parallel to each other. The light beam is irradiated with a predetermined angle directed downward. The light beam irradiated from the light projecting unit 9 travels downward while being reflected by the reflecting mirrors 6 and 8 a plurality of times, passes through the parallel mirror space, and is received by the light receiving unit 10. The light projecting unit 9 is below the reflecting mirror 8 and the light receiving unit 10 is The mirror 8, the light projecting unit 9, and the light receiving unit 10 may be disposed upside down with respect to the above. In such a case, the light beam emitted from the light projecting unit 9 enters the parallel mirror space so as to cross the entrance 1 and to have an upward force at a predetermined angle. Then, after being reflected a plurality of times by the reflecting mirrors 6 and 8, the light is received by the light receiving unit 10. In addition, 11 controls the operation of the light projecting unit 9 and the light receiving unit 10 of each light projecting / receiving unit 7, and determines the presence / absence of an obstacle at the entrance 1 based on the signal detected by the light receiving unit 10. CPU for control.
[0016] 上記構成のドアセンサ装置では、投光部 9から照射された光線が受光部 10で受光 されない場合に、上記光線を障害物が遮ったとして、出入口 1の障害物の存在が検 出される。したがって、 1組の投受光部 7 (—対の投光部 9及び受光部 10)によって障 害物を検出できる範囲を上下方向に広げることができ、出入口 1の障害物を安価に 且つ精度良く検出することが可能となる。即ち、上記ドアセンサ装置では、投光部 9か ら照射された光線が、受光部 10によって受光されるまでに反射ミラー 6及び 8間を複 数回反射するため、一対の投光部 9及び受光部 10によって、出入口 1を横切る多数 の光線を形成することが可能となり、装置全体に使用する発光素子及び受光素子の 数を低減させることができる。具体的には、投光部 9から照射された光線は、少なくと も反射ミラー 6で 2回、反射ミラー 8で 1回反射されるため、一対の投光部 9及び受光 部 10によって、出入口 1を横切る光線を最低でも 4本形成することができる。なお、上 記光線の反射回数を増力 tlさせるように、投光部 9からの投光角度や反射ミラー 8の反 射面長さ等を設定することにより、一対の投光部 9及び受光部 10によって、出入口 1 を横切る、より多くの光線を形成できることは言うまでもない。なお、上記構成のドアセ ンサ装置では、投光部 9ゃ受光部 10等の電装品が他方のスライドドア 3のみに実装 されるため、配線の引き回しが簡素化され、据付性を向上させる効果も期待できる。  [0016] In the door sensor device having the above configuration, when the light beam emitted from the light projecting unit 9 is not received by the light receiving unit 10, it is detected that the obstacle is blocked by the light beam, and the presence of the obstacle at the entrance 1 is detected. . Therefore, the range in which obstacles can be detected by one set of light projecting and receiving parts 7 (the pair of light projecting parts 9 and light receiving parts 10) can be expanded in the vertical direction, and the obstacles at the entrance 1 can be made inexpensively and accurately. It becomes possible to detect. That is, in the door sensor device described above, the light beam emitted from the light projecting unit 9 is reflected a plurality of times between the reflecting mirrors 6 and 8 before being received by the light receiving unit 10, so that the pair of light projecting units 9 and the light receiving unit 9 receive light. The section 10 can form a large number of light beams crossing the entrance / exit 1, and the number of light emitting elements and light receiving elements used in the entire apparatus can be reduced. Specifically, since the light emitted from the light projecting unit 9 is reflected at least twice by the reflecting mirror 6 and once by the reflecting mirror 8, the pair of light projecting unit 9 and light receiving unit 10 are used to enter and exit the entrance / exit. At least four rays crossing 1 can be formed. It should be noted that the light projecting angle from the light projecting unit 9 and the length of the reflecting surface of the reflecting mirror 8 are set so as to increase the number of times the light beam is reflected, so that the pair of light projecting units 9 and the light receiving unit It goes without saying that 10 allows more rays to cross the doorway 1. In the door sensor device configured as described above, since the electrical components such as the light projecting unit 9 and the light receiving unit 10 are mounted only on the other slide door 3, the wiring is simplified and the installation is also improved. I can expect.
[0017] また、上記構成のドアセンサ装置では、一方のスライドドア 2に反射ミラー 6が、他方 のスライドドア 3に投受光部 7が設けられている。このため、スライドドア 2及び 3の移動 (開閉動作)に伴い反射ミラー 6及び投受光部 7の間隔が変化し、投光部 9から照射さ れた光線の反射回数や反射位置が変化する。したがって、投光部 9からの光線が受 光部 10に入射する位置も、スライドドア 2及び 3の移動に伴 、変化する。 [0018] 一方、投光部 9からの光線が受光部 10に入射する角度は、投受光部 7の組立精度 や、反射ミラー 6及び投受光部 7 (反射ミラー 8)の据付精度に依存する。なお、現実 には不可能である力 反射ミラー 6及び 8の平行度が完全に 0である場合には、上記 入射角度は変化しない。ここで、図 2は反射ミラー 6及び 8が所定の据付誤差角を有 して据え付けられた場合を示したものである。図 2において、 αは投光部 9から照射さ れる光線の、反射ミラー 8の反射面の法線を基準とした投光角、 βは反射ミラー 8〖こ 対する反射ミラー 6の据付誤差角である。なお、反射ミラー 6及び 8の据付状態によつ ては、投光部 9から照射された光線の反射ミラー 6及び 8に対する入射角が、反射の 度に大きくなる場合と反射の度に小さくなる場合とが考えられる。しかし、上記入射角 が反射の度に小さくなる場合には、上記光線が受光部 10に到達しない場合も考えら れるため、実際の据付においては前者寄りに調整が行われる。したがって、図 2にお いても、力かる場合についてのみ説明する。 In the door sensor device having the above-described configuration, the reflection mirror 6 is provided on one slide door 2 and the light projecting / receiving unit 7 is provided on the other slide door 3. Therefore, as the slide doors 2 and 3 move (open / close operation), the distance between the reflection mirror 6 and the light projecting / receiving unit 7 changes, and the number of reflections and the reflection position of the light emitted from the light projecting unit 9 change. Therefore, the position where the light beam from the light projecting unit 9 enters the light receiving unit 10 also changes as the slide doors 2 and 3 move. On the other hand, the angle at which the light beam from the light projecting unit 9 enters the light receiving unit 10 depends on the assembly accuracy of the light projecting / receiving unit 7 and the installation accuracy of the reflection mirror 6 and the light projecting / receiving unit 7 (reflection mirror 8). . Note that when the parallelism of the force reflecting mirrors 6 and 8 is completely zero, the incident angle does not change. Here, FIG. 2 shows a case where the reflection mirrors 6 and 8 are installed with a predetermined installation error angle. In FIG. 2, α is the light projection angle of the light emitted from the light projecting unit 9 with respect to the normal of the reflecting surface of the reflecting mirror 8, and β is the installation error angle of the reflecting mirror 6 to the reflecting mirror 8 mm. is there. Depending on the installation state of the reflecting mirrors 6 and 8, the incident angle of the light beam irradiated from the light projecting unit 9 with respect to the reflecting mirrors 6 and 8 increases with each reflection and decreases with each reflection. A case may be considered. However, when the incident angle becomes smaller at every reflection, the light beam may not reach the light receiving unit 10, so that the actual installation is adjusted closer to the former. Therefore, only the case where power is applied will be described in FIG.
[0019] 投光部 9から照射された光線の反射ミラー 6及び 8に対する入射角は、 α +η |8によ つて与えられる。ここで、 ηは反射回数である。かかる場合、上記入射角は反射の度 に大きくなる。また、上述の通り、スライドドア 2及び 3の移動に伴い、投光部 9から照 射された光線の反射回数も変化する。したがって、投光部 9から照射された光線が受 光部 10に入射する角度も、スライドドア 2及び 3の移動に伴って変化する。  The incident angle of the light beam irradiated from the light projecting unit 9 with respect to the reflection mirrors 6 and 8 is given by α + η | 8. Here, η is the number of reflections. In such a case, the incident angle increases with each reflection. Further, as described above, the number of reflections of the light rays emitted from the light projecting unit 9 also change as the slide doors 2 and 3 move. Therefore, the angle at which the light beam irradiated from the light projecting unit 9 enters the light receiving unit 10 also changes as the slide doors 2 and 3 move.
[0020] 即ち、上記構成のドアセンサ装置による障害物の検出時においては、投光部 9から の光線が受光部 10に入射する位置及び角度は、スライドドア 2及び 3の移動に伴い 変化する。なお、この入射位置及び入射角度の変化は、反射ミラー 6及び投受光部 7 の少なくとも何れか一方力 Sスライドドア 2又は 3の出入口 1側端部に設けられていれば 生じ得る。このため、上記受光部 10には、スライドドア 2及び 3が移動した場合でも投 光部 9から照射された光線を確実に受光することができるように、投光部 9から照射さ れた光線を実際に受光して検出する受光素子を有する受光体 12と、反射ミラー 8の 下方に配置され、スライドドア 2及び 3の移動に伴い反射ミラー 6及び投受光部 7の間 隔が変化した場合でも、反射ミラー 6及び 8によって複数回反射された投光部 9から の光線を集光して受光体 12に受光させる集光部 13とが備えられている。なお、上記 集光部 13は、例えば、レンズやプリズム等の単数又は複数の光学部品によって構成 される。 That is, when an obstacle is detected by the door sensor device having the above-described configuration, the position and angle at which the light beam from the light projecting unit 9 enters the light receiving unit 10 changes as the slide doors 2 and 3 move. Note that the change in the incident position and the incident angle may occur if the reflecting mirror 6 and the light projecting / receiving unit 7 are provided at the end of the sliding door 2 or 3 at the entrance / exit 1 side. For this reason, the light receiving unit 10 receives the light emitted from the light projecting unit 9 so that the light emitted from the light projecting unit 9 can be reliably received even when the slide doors 2 and 3 move. When the distance between the reflecting mirror 6 and the light projecting / receiving section 7 is changed as the slide doors 2 and 3 are moved. However, a condensing unit 13 is provided that collects the light from the light projecting unit 9 reflected by the reflecting mirrors 6 and 8 a plurality of times and causes the light receiving body 12 to receive the light. The condensing unit 13 is composed of one or more optical components such as a lens and a prism. Is done.
[0021] 次に、上記機能を有するための受光部 10の具体的構成について説明する。  Next, a specific configuration of the light receiving unit 10 having the above function will be described.
上記受光部 10は、スライドドア 2及び 3が移動した場合でも投光部 9から照射された 光線を確実に受光するために、例えば、集光部 13の集光範囲が、投光部 9から照射 された光線の間隔が最も疎となるスライドドア 2及び 3の全開時に、反射ミラー 6及び 8 によって複数回反射された投光部 9からの 2本以上の光線を集光して受光体 12に受 光させることができる所定の上下幅を有するように設計される。なお、上記集光範囲と は、反射ミラー 6及び 8によって複数回反射された投光部 9からの光線が、集光部 13 のその範囲に入射すれば、受光体 12によって所定の受光量を検出することができる 範囲のことを言う。ここで、 2本以上の光線を集光するとしているのは、スライドドア 2及 び 3の移動に伴い上記光線の反射回数が変化する場合でも、少なくとも 1本の光線 が常時集光範囲に入射されることを担保するためである。  In order to reliably receive the light emitted from the light projecting unit 9 even when the slide doors 2 and 3 move, the light receiving unit 10 has, for example, a condensing range of the light converging unit 13 from the light projecting unit 9. When the sliding doors 2 and 3 where the distance between the irradiated light beams is the smallest are fully opened, two or more light beams from the light projecting unit 9 reflected by the reflecting mirrors 6 and 8 are condensed several times to receive the light receiver 12. It is designed to have a predetermined vertical width that can be received by the light. Note that the light condensing range refers to a predetermined amount of light received by the photoreceptor 12 when light rays from the light projecting unit 9 reflected a plurality of times by the reflecting mirrors 6 and 8 enter the range of the light condensing unit 13. The range that can be detected. Here, it is assumed that two or more light beams are collected, even if the number of reflections of the light beam changes as the slide doors 2 and 3 move, at least one light beam is always incident on the light collection range. This is to secure what is done.
[0022] 上記機能を実現するためには、集光部 13の集光範囲をノ、一フミラーで構成する等 して、集光部 13への複数回の入射を可能にする処理が必要となる。例えば、反射ミ ラー 6及び 8によって複数回反射された投光部 9からの光線を透過光と反射光とに分 離する分離機能を集光部 13に備えさせることにより、上記透過光を受光体 12に受光 させ、上記反射光を反射ミラー 6に向けて反射させる。さらに、集光部 13の集光範囲 を、反射ミラー 6によって更に反射された上記反射光力スライドドア 2及び 3の全開時 に集光部 13に集光されて受光体 12に受光されるように設定する。  [0022] In order to realize the above function, it is necessary to perform a process that enables multiple incidences on the condensing unit 13 by configuring the condensing range of the condensing unit 13 with a single mirror or the like. Become. For example, the condensing unit 13 is provided with a separation function that separates the light from the light projecting unit 9 reflected by the reflection mirrors 6 and 8 into the transmitted light and the reflected light, thereby receiving the transmitted light. The body 12 receives the light and reflects the reflected light toward the reflection mirror 6. Further, the condensing range of the condensing unit 13 is condensed on the condensing unit 13 and received by the photoreceptor 12 when the reflected light power sliding doors 2 and 3 further reflected by the reflecting mirror 6 are fully opened. Set to.
[0023] なお、ドアセンサ装置の据付を容易にするため、受光部 10に何らかの表示手段( 図示せず)を備えることにより、ドアセンサ装置に、反射ミラー 6及び 8によって複数回 反射された投光部 9からの少なくとも 2本の光線が、集光部 13の集光範囲に入射さ れて ヽることを表示できるような機能を搭載するようにしても良 ヽ。力かる場合には、 その表示を確認しながらドアセンサ装置の据付が行えるため、特別な据付治具や計 測機器を用いることなぐ光軸調整等が実施できる。  In order to facilitate the installation of the door sensor device, the light receiving unit 10 is provided with some display means (not shown), so that the light projecting unit reflected on the door sensor device by the reflecting mirrors 6 and 8 a plurality of times. It is also possible to install a function that can display that at least two rays from 9 are incident on the condensing range of the condensing unit 13. When it is applied, the door sensor device can be installed while confirming the display, so optical axis adjustment without using special installation jigs or measuring instruments can be performed.
[0024] なお、集光部 13がハーフミラー等の上記分離機能を有する場合には、ハーフミラ 一等によって反射された反射光を、反射ミラー 6によって更に反射させた後、透過光 を受光した受光体 12を備えた投受光部 7とは異なる他の投受光部 7の受光体 12に 受光させるようにしても良い。 [0024] When the condensing unit 13 has the above separating function such as a half mirror, the reflected light reflected by the half mirror is further reflected by the reflecting mirror 6 and then received by receiving the transmitted light. Different from the light emitting / receiving unit 7 having the body 12 to the light receiving unit 12 of the other light emitting / receiving unit 7 You may make it receive light.
[0025] ドアセンサ装置は、上記構成を有することにより、反射ミラー 6及び 8の反射面間距 離の変化や、所定の据付精度及び組立精度、スライドドア 2及び 3の移動等が生じて も、投光部 9から照射された光線を、確実に受光部 10によって受光することができ、 出入口 1の障害物を精度良く検出することが可能となる。しかし、出入口 1の上下広 範囲に渡って障害物の検出を実施する場合には、 1組の投受光部 7ではその検出範 囲に限界があるため、スライドドア 3の出入口 1側端部に複数組の投受光部 7を上下 に配置する必要がある。力かる場合には、投受光部 7の投光部 9から照射された光線 を他の投受光部 7の受光部 10が受光してしまうことによって生じる誤検出を防止する ため、制御用 CPU11によって、投光部 9及び受光部 10等の動作を各投受光部 7毎 に時分割制御しても良い。  [0025] The door sensor device has the above-described configuration, so that even if a change in the distance between the reflecting surfaces of the reflecting mirrors 6 and 8, a predetermined installation accuracy and assembly accuracy, a movement of the sliding doors 2 and 3, and the like occur, The light beam emitted from the light unit 9 can be reliably received by the light receiving unit 10, and the obstacle at the entrance / exit 1 can be accurately detected. However, when detecting obstacles over a wide range of entrance / exit 1, there is a limit to the detection range of one set of light projecting / receiving unit 7, so the entrance / exit 1 side end of sliding door 3 is limited. Multiple sets of light emitting / receiving sections 7 need to be arranged one above the other. In order to prevent erroneous detection caused by the light receiving unit 10 of the other light projecting / receiving unit 7 receiving the light emitted from the light projecting unit 9 of the light projecting / receiving unit 7, the control CPU 11 The operations of the light projecting unit 9 and the light receiving unit 10 may be time-division controlled for each light projecting / receiving unit 7.
[0026] また、スライドドア 3の出入口 1側端部に複数組の投受光部 7を上下に並設しただけ では、各投受光部 7間に、投光部 9からの光線が存在しない非検出範囲が発生し得 る。このような非検出範囲の発生を防止するには、例えば、上下に隣接する投受光部 7の検出範囲を上下方向に一部重複させる方法 (第 1の方法)や、上下に隣接する投 受光部 7の投光部 9及び受光部 10の配置をそれぞれ上下逆にして、各投光部 9から 照射される光線の進行方向を上下逆にする方法 (第 2の方法)、 1つの受光部 10に 複数の投光部 9から照射された光線を受光させる方法 (第 3の方法)等が考えられる。  [0026] Further, the light from the light projecting unit 9 does not exist between the light projecting and receiving units 7 simply by arranging a plurality of sets of the light projecting and receiving units 7 at the end of the sliding door 3 on the entrance 1 side. Detection range can occur. In order to prevent the occurrence of such a non-detection range, for example, a method of partially overlapping the detection ranges of the light emitting / receiving units 7 adjacent in the vertical direction (first method), The arrangement of the light projecting unit 9 and the light receiving unit 10 of the unit 7 is turned upside down so that the traveling direction of the light emitted from each light projecting unit 9 is turned upside down (second method), one light receiving unit For example, a method (third method) in which light emitted from a plurality of light projecting units 9 is received in 10 is conceivable.
[0027] 上記第 1の方法では、例えば、所定の投受光部 7の投光部 9と受光部 10との間に、 他の投受光部 7の投光部 9又は受光部 10を配置することにより、 2つの投受光部 7の 検出範囲をオーバーラップさせる。かかる場合、検出範囲がオーバーラップしている 2つの投受光部 7間での誤検出を防止するため、各投受光部 7の動作を制御用 CP U11によって時分割制御したり、隣接する投受光部 7を出入方向にずらして配置した りしても良い。  [0027] In the first method, for example, the light projecting unit 9 or the light receiving unit 10 of another light projecting / receiving unit 7 is arranged between the light projecting unit 9 and the light receiving unit 10 of the predetermined light projecting / receiving unit 7. As a result, the detection ranges of the two light emitters / receivers 7 overlap. In such a case, in order to prevent erroneous detection between the two light emitting / receiving units 7 whose detection ranges overlap, the operation of each light emitting / receiving unit 7 is controlled in time division by the control CPU 11 or adjacent light emitting / receiving units It is also possible to dispose part 7 in the direction of entry / exit.
[0028] また、上記第 3の方法では、例えば、所定の投受光部 7の受光部 10に、その投受 光部 7の投光部 9からの光線を受光させるとともに、他の投受光部 7の投光部 9からの 光線をも受光させるように構成する。かかる場合、制御用 CPU11によって、上記所 定の投受光部 7及び上記他の投受光部 7の組み合わせ毎に、投光部 9及び受光部 1 0の動作を時分割制御し、誤検出の防止を図る必要がある。 [0028] In the third method, for example, the light receiving unit 10 of the predetermined light projecting / receiving unit 7 receives the light from the light projecting unit 9 of the light projecting / receiving unit 7, and the other light projecting / receiving unit It is configured to receive light from 7 light projecting parts 9 as well. In such a case, the control CPU 11 causes the light projecting unit 9 and the light receiving unit 1 for each combination of the predetermined light projecting / receiving unit 7 and the other light projecting / receiving unit 7. It is necessary to control the zero operation in a time-sharing manner to prevent erroneous detection.
[0029] なお、出入口 1の所定の範囲の検出精度を上げるため、上記第 1乃至第 3の方法を 一部の範囲に配置された投受光部 7のみに適用することも可能である。また、例えば 、第 1の方法と第 2の方法とを併用して、非検出範囲の発生を確実に防止するように しても良い。 [0029] It should be noted that in order to increase the detection accuracy of a predetermined range of the entrance / exit 1, the first to third methods can be applied only to the light projecting / receiving unit 7 arranged in a part of the range. Further, for example, the first method and the second method may be used in combination to reliably prevent the occurrence of a non-detection range.
[0030] ここで、上記投光部 9には、平行鏡空間内に所定の角度で光線を照射するための、 発光素子から照射開口部までの光軸設定フードと、上記光線の光軸を制御する光学 制御機構とが備えられ、設定された角度で正確に光線を照射することができるように 構成されている。また、小物体の障害物でも検出することができるように、投光部 9に は、照射される光線の幅を所定値以下に絞る機構が備えられている。なお、上記光 軸設定フードの形状を、投光部 9から照射される光線が反射しながら進む方向よりも 出入口 1の出入方向に広くなるように構成することにより、上記光線の反射前後の干 渉や回り込みによる小障害物に対する非検出を防止する対策を施すことが可能にな るとともに、出入方向に対する据付精度の許容性を十分に確保することが可能となる 。上記投光部 9内の光源としては、例えば、 LED,レーザ、電球等が使用される。  Here, the light projecting unit 9 is provided with an optical axis setting hood from a light emitting element to an irradiation opening for irradiating a light beam at a predetermined angle in a parallel mirror space, and an optical axis of the light beam. And an optical control mechanism for controlling, and configured to irradiate light rays accurately at a set angle. Further, the light projecting unit 9 is provided with a mechanism for narrowing the width of the irradiated light beam to a predetermined value or less so that even a small object can be detected. The shape of the optical axis setting hood is configured so that it is wider in the entrance / exit direction of the entrance / exit 1 than the direction in which the light emitted from the light projecting section 9 is reflected and reflected, so It is possible to take measures to prevent non-detection of small obstacles due to interference or wraparound, and to ensure sufficient tolerance for installation accuracy in the direction of entry and exit. As the light source in the light projecting unit 9, for example, an LED, a laser, a light bulb or the like is used.
