For example, in the case of the conventional device described in Patent Document 1, the external device is operated in conjunction with the device by starting the power supply to the external device using the interlocking relay.

The relay 106 has a contact point provided on one line of the AC power supply line 105 formed on a different path from the AC power supply line 101. The synchronization circuit 107 receives the signal of the current detector 104 and turns on / off the contact of the relay 106.
 また従来の装置は、継電器106の接点に電力を供給する室外ユニット109を備えている。 Further, the conventional apparatus includes an outdoor unit 109 that supplies power to the contact of the relay 106.
 そして、複数の運転スイッチ102の内一つでも閉じると、閉じた運転スイッチ102に対応するファンコイル103へ電流が流れ、それと共に電流検出器104にて電流信号が生成される。 Then, when even one of the plurality of operation switches 102 is closed, a current flows to the fan coil 103 corresponding to the closed operation switch 102, and a current signal is generated by the current detector 104 at the same time.
 この電流信号を受信した同期回路107が継電器106の接点を閉路にするため、室外ユニット109に電力が供給され、室外ユニット109が運転を始める。 Since the synchronization circuit 107 that has received this current signal closes the contact of the relay 106, power is supplied to the outdoor unit 109, and the outdoor unit 109 starts operation.
 すなわちファンコイル103の運転スイッチ102に連動して、室外ユニット109が運転を始める。 That is, the outdoor unit 109 starts operation in conjunction with the operation switch 102 of the fan coil 103.

 このような従来の装置において、室外ユニット(以降、外部機器という)は、装置停止時は電力が供給されていない状態では待機し、装置に電力が供給されると連動して運転を開始する、設定となっている。このため、外部機器の運転が不要な状況であっても装置に電力が供給されると外部機器が運転してしまう、という課題を有していた。 In such a conventional device, the outdoor unit (hereinafter referred to as an external device) waits in a state where power is not supplied when the device is stopped, and starts operation in conjunction with power supplied to the device. It is set. For this reason, even when the operation of the external device is unnecessary, there is a problem that the external device is operated when power is supplied to the apparatus.
 そこで本発明は、外部機器に電力が供給されているのみでは動作せず、加えて外部機器が動作を行ったことでそれに連動して動作する台座回転装置を提供することを目的とする。 Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a pedestal rotating device that does not operate only when power is supplied to an external device, and that operates in conjunction with the operation of the external device.
 そして、この目的を達成するために、本発明に係る台座回転装置は、電力受給部と、電力受給部にて受け取った電力を外部機器に供給する電力供給部と、外部機器を配置可能に構成された台座と、回動中心を中心として台座を回動させる回動部と、外部機器の運転状態を検出する運転検出部と、運転検出部の検出結果に基づいて回動部を動作させる制御部とを備える。 In order to achieve this object, the pedestal rotating device according to the present invention is configured to be able to arrange an electric power receiving unit, an electric power supply unit that supplies electric power received by the electric power receiving unit to an external device, and the external device. Pedestal, a rotation unit that rotates the pedestal about the rotation center, an operation detection unit that detects the operation state of the external device, and a control that operates the rotation unit based on the detection result of the operation detection unit A part.
 本発明に係る台座回転装置は、外部機器に電力が供給されているのみでは動作せず、加えて外部機器が動作を行ったことでそれに連動して動作する。 The pedestal rotating device according to the present invention does not operate only when electric power is supplied to the external device, and additionally operates in conjunction with the operation of the external device.

 本発明に係る台座回転装置は、電力受給部と、電力受給部にて受け取った電力を外部機器に供給する電力供給部と、外部機器を配置可能に構成された台座と、回動中心を中心として台座を回動させる回動部と、外部機器の運転状態を検出する運転検出部と、運転検出部の検出結果に基づいて回動部を動作させる制御部とを備える。 A pedestal rotating device according to the present invention includes an electric power receiving unit, an electric power supply unit that supplies electric power received by the electric power receiving unit to an external device, a pedestal configured to be able to arrange the external device, and a rotation center. As a rotation unit that rotates the pedestal, an operation detection unit that detects the operation state of the external device, and a control unit that operates the rotation unit based on the detection result of the operation detection unit.
 これにより、制御部は、運転検出部の検出結果にて外部機器が運転を行っている場合に回動部を動作することができる。そして、回動部が動作することで台座が回動し、台座に配置された外部機器が回動する。また、外部機器の運転が停止されると、制御部は回動部の動作を停止することができる。 Thereby, the control unit can operate the rotation unit when the external device is operating based on the detection result of the operation detection unit. Then, the pedestal is rotated by operating the rotating unit, and the external device disposed on the pedestal is rotated. Further, when the operation of the external device is stopped, the control unit can stop the operation of the rotating unit.
 このように、台座回転装置の内部で外部機器の運転状態を検出して台座を回動させるため、電力が供給されているのみでは動かない。従って、台座回転装置の動作を外部機器の動作に連動して動作させることができる。さらに、意図しない外部機器が接続された場合や、未接続状態では台座回転装置を動作させないという効果を奏する。 As described above, since the operating state of the external device is detected inside the pedestal rotating device to rotate the pedestal, it does not move only when power is supplied. Therefore, the operation of the pedestal rotating device can be operated in conjunction with the operation of the external device. Further, there is an effect that the pedestal rotating device is not operated when an unintended external device is connected or in an unconnected state.
 また、運転検出部は、電力供給部が外部機器に電力を供給する線路に流れる電流量を検出する電流量検出部と、電流量検出部が検出した電流量と所定の値との比較を行う比較部とを備え、比較部による比較結果が所定の値より大きい場合に外部機器が運転を行っていると判定し、回動部は、運転検出部が外部機器が運転を行っていると判定した場合にのみ台座を回動させるという構成としてもよい。 In addition, the operation detection unit compares the current amount detected by the current amount detection unit with a predetermined value, and a current amount detection unit that detects the amount of current flowing through the line through which the power supply unit supplies power to the external device. A comparison unit, and when the comparison result by the comparison unit is larger than a predetermined value, it is determined that the external device is operating, and the rotation unit is determined that the operation detection unit is operating the external device. It is good also as a structure which rotates a base only when it does.
 これにより、外部機器が運転を行っているとの判定を、電力供給線路に流れる電流量により判定することができる。また、電力供給線路の電流量を検出することから、外部機器の運転判断と共に、意図しない外部機器接続や未接続などの状況も把握することができる。また、台座回転装置と外部機器との接続に、動作の命令などを含む信号の授受が不要となり、電源を接続するのみで連動させることが可能となる。 Thereby, it can be determined from the amount of current flowing through the power supply line that the external device is operating. Further, since the current amount of the power supply line is detected, it is possible to grasp the situation of unintentional external device connection and unconnection as well as the operation determination of the external device. Further, the connection between the pedestal rotating device and the external device does not require transmission / reception of a signal including an operation command, and can be interlocked only by connecting a power source.
 また、回動部は、回転中心を中心として台座を所定の角度範囲で正方向及び負方向に往復回動させるという構成としてもよい。 The rotating unit may be configured to reciprocally rotate the pedestal in the positive direction and the negative direction within a predetermined angle range around the rotation center.
 これにより、回動部は所定の角度範囲で往復回動することができ、台座の回動を正方向及び負方向に切換えることで、外部機器の向きを繰り返し変えることができる。 Thereby, the rotating part can reciprocally rotate within a predetermined angle range, and the direction of the external device can be repeatedly changed by switching the rotation of the base between the positive direction and the negative direction.
 また、回動部の往復回動角度を選択する角度選択部を備え、回動部は、角度選択部によって選択された角度に基づいて往復回動するという構成としてもよい。 Further, an angle selection unit that selects a reciprocal rotation angle of the rotation unit may be provided, and the rotation unit may be configured to reciprocate based on the angle selected by the angle selection unit.
 これにより、角度選択部を任意の位置にすると、制御部はその位置を認識し、回動部を予め設定した範囲で往復回動することができるので、外部機器の回動範囲を使用者が任意に設定することができる。 Accordingly, when the angle selection unit is set to an arbitrary position, the control unit recognizes the position and can reciprocately rotate the rotation unit within a preset range, so that the user can set the rotation range of the external device. It can be set arbitrarily.
 また、外部機器の運転状態に関わらず往復回動を停止また開始させる停止開始部を備えた構成としてもよい。 Moreover, it is good also as a structure provided with the stop start part which stops and starts a reciprocating rotation irrespective of the driving | running state of an external apparatus.
 これにより、停止開始部の設定が停止のときは、外部機器の運転有無に関わらず、台座の回動を停止させることができる。また、停止開始部の設定が運転のときは、外部機器の運転に連動して台座が回動することができる。従って、台座回転装置と外部機器とは必ずしも連動せず、外部機器の向きを固定することと、向きを変えることとを使用者が任意に設定することができる。 Thus, when the setting of the stop start unit is stopped, the rotation of the base can be stopped regardless of whether or not the external device is in operation. Further, when the setting of the stop start unit is driving, the pedestal can be rotated in conjunction with the driving of the external device. Therefore, the pedestal rotating device and the external device are not necessarily linked, and the user can arbitrarily set the direction of the external device and change the direction.
 また、回動の基準位置となる回動基準位置を設定する回動リセット部とを備え、回動部は、回動リセット部によって定められた回動基準位置を基準として正方向および負方向に等角度で台座を往復運動する構成としてもよい。 A rotation reset unit that sets a rotation reference position serving as a rotation reference position, and the rotation unit is configured to move in a positive direction and a negative direction with reference to the rotation reference position determined by the rotation reset unit. It is good also as a structure which reciprocates a base at an equal angle.
 これにより、運転検出部の検出結果にて外部機器が運転をおこなっている場合に制御部は回動部を動作することができ、回動部が動作することで台座が回動し、台座に配置された外部機器が回動する。また、外部機器の運転が停止されると、制御部は回動部の動作を停止することができる。また、任意の回動の基準位置を基準として正方向および負方向に等角度で往復運動させることができる。 As a result, when the external device is operating based on the detection result of the operation detection unit, the control unit can operate the rotation unit, and the base rotates by the operation of the rotation unit. The arranged external device rotates. Further, when the operation of the external device is stopped, the control unit can stop the operation of the rotating unit. Further, it can be reciprocated at an equal angle in the positive direction and the negative direction with reference to an arbitrary reference position of rotation.
 このように、台座回転装置の内部で外部機器の運転状態を検出して台座を回動するため、電源が供給されているだけでは動かず、台座回転装置の動作を外部機器の動作に連動して動作させることができる。また、意図しない外部機器が接続された場合や、未接続状態の場合は、台座回転装置を動作させない。さらに、回動する基準位置をリセットさせることで回動位置を任意に設定することができる。 In this way, since the operating state of the external device is detected inside the pedestal rotating device and the pedestal is rotated, the pedestal rotating device does not move only when power is supplied, and the operation of the pedestal rotating device is linked to the operation of the external device. Can be operated. Further, when an unintended external device is connected or not connected, the pedestal rotation device is not operated. Furthermore, the rotation position can be arbitrarily set by resetting the reference position for rotation.
 また、正方向及び負方向へ往復回動等する角度を選択させる角度選択部を備え、角度選択部によって選択された角度に基づいて往復回動するという構成としても良い。 Further, an angle selection unit that selects an angle for reciprocal rotation in the positive direction and the negative direction may be provided, and the reciprocal rotation may be performed based on the angle selected by the angle selection unit.
 これにより、角度選択部によって、任意に角度を設定することができる。 This allows the angle to be arbitrarily set by the angle selection unit.
 また、角度選択部は、スイッチであり、回動リセット部によって定められる回動基準位置は、角度選択部選択時の台座の位置としても良い。 Also, the angle selection unit is a switch, and the rotation reference position determined by the rotation reset unit may be the position of the base when the angle selection unit is selected.
 これにより、スイッチを押す(選択)という簡単な手段で回動基準位置のリセットを行える。 This makes it possible to reset the rotation reference position by a simple means of pressing (selecting) the switch.
 また、外部機器の運転状態に関わらず往復回動を停止また開始させる停止開始部を備えた構成としても良い。 Moreover, it is good also as a structure provided with the stop start part which stops and starts reciprocating rotation irrespective of the driving | running state of an external apparatus.
 これにより、外部機器の状態に関わらず台座回転装置の停止と運転を任意に選択することが可能となる。 This makes it possible to arbitrarily select stop and operation of the pedestal rotating device regardless of the state of the external device.
 また、停止開始部は、スイッチであり、回動リセット部によって定められる回動基準位置は、停止開始部選択時の台座の位置としても良い。 The stop start unit is a switch, and the rotation reference position determined by the rotation reset unit may be the position of the base when the stop start unit is selected.
 これにより、スイッチを押す(選択)という簡単な手段で回動基準位置のリセットを行える。 This makes it possible to reset the rotation reference position by a simple means of pressing (selecting) the switch.
 また、回動基準位置を記憶する回動位置記憶部を備え、回転開始時に回動位置記憶部に記憶された回動基準位置を基準として回動する構成としても良い。 Further, a rotation position storage unit that stores the rotation reference position may be provided, and the rotation may be performed with reference to the rotation reference position stored in the rotation position storage unit when the rotation starts.
 これにより、任意の回動基準位置を基準として回動させることが可能となる。 This makes it possible to rotate with reference to an arbitrary rotation reference position.
 また、回動リセット部によって定められる回動基準位置は、制御部への通電開始時の台座の位置である構成としても良い。 Further, the rotation reference position determined by the rotation reset unit may be a pedestal position at the start of energization to the control unit.
 これにより、通電開始という単純な操作で回動基準位置をリセットできる。 This makes it possible to reset the rotation reference position with a simple operation of starting energization.
 また、回動部は、回動中心を中心として台座を一方向に360度以上回転させるという構成としても良い。 Further, the rotation unit may be configured to rotate the pedestal 360 degrees or more in one direction around the rotation center.
 これにより、正方向および負方向への往復運動だけではなく任意の方向へ連続回転させる。 This allows continuous rotation in any direction, not just reciprocation in the positive and negative directions.
 また、回動部は、回動基準位置を基準として正方向に回動中に回転指示を受けた場合には正方向に回転し、回動基準位置を基準として負方向に回動中に回転指示を受けた場合には負方向に回転するという構成としても良い。 The rotating unit rotates in the positive direction when receiving a rotation instruction while rotating in the positive direction with respect to the rotation reference position, and rotates in the negative direction with reference to the rotation reference position. It may be configured to rotate in the negative direction when receiving an instruction.
 これにより、回動部は、正方向または負方向いずれかの方向に回動中に指示をすることで任意の方向に連続した回動運転させることができる。 Thereby, the rotating unit can be continuously rotated in any direction by giving an instruction during rotation in either the positive direction or the negative direction.
 また、外部機器は、送風を行う送風装置であるという構成としても良い。 Also, the external device may be configured to be a blower that blows air.
 これにより、任意の基準位置、任意の角度で正方向および負方向に回動する、または任意の方向に連続的に回動することができる送風装置を得ることができる。また、台座の回動を通じて送風装置を回動させ、送風装置から吹出される風の送風方向を回動に合せて変更することができるので、送風範囲を拡げることができる。 This makes it possible to obtain a blower that can rotate in the positive and negative directions at any reference position and at any angle, or that can continuously rotate in any direction. Moreover, since the blowing device can be rotated through the rotation of the pedestal and the blowing direction of the wind blown from the blowing device can be changed in accordance with the rotation, the blowing range can be expanded.

 (実施の形態1)
 図1から図3を参照しながら、本発明の実施の形態1に係る台座回転装置1について説明する。なお、台座回転装置1は本発明に係る台座回転装置の一例であって、図1は台座回転装置1の構成を示したブロック図である。また、図2は本実施の形態に係る台座回転装置1の外観を示す斜視図である。
(Embodiment 1)
A pedestal rotating apparatus 1 according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3. The pedestal rotating device 1 is an example of a pedestal rotating device according to the present invention, and FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the pedestal rotating device 1. FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing an appearance of the pedestal rotating device 1 according to the present embodiment.
 図1および図2に示すように、台座回転装置1は、大きく分けて下部の本体20と本体20の上部に設けられた台座5とで構成されている。また、台座5上には外部機器3が配置されている。ただし外部機器3は、台座回転装置1に含まれない。 As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the pedestal rotating device 1 is roughly composed of a lower main body 20 and a pedestal 5 provided on the upper portion of the main body 20. An external device 3 is disposed on the pedestal 5. However, the external device 3 is not included in the pedestal rotating device 1.
 本体20は、円錐台形状をしており、内部に電力受給部2と、電力供給部4と、回動部7と、運転検出部8と、制御部12と、角度選択部13と、停止開始部14とを備える。なお、本体20は円柱や角錐、角柱でも実現が可能である。以下は円錐台形状の本体20を一例に述べる。 The main body 20 has a truncated cone shape, and includes an electric power receiving unit 2, an electric power supply unit 4, a rotation unit 7, an operation detection unit 8, a control unit 12, an angle selection unit 13, and a stop. And a starter 14. The main body 20 can be realized by a cylinder, a pyramid, or a prism. Hereinafter, the truncated cone-shaped main body 20 will be described as an example.
 電力受給部2は、公共の交流電源やバッテリー、あるいはACアダプタの直流電源などから電力の供給を受け、制御部12や電力を必要とする各駆動部等に線路9等を介して電力を供給する。 The power receiving unit 2 receives power from a public AC power source, a battery, or a DC power source of an AC adapter, and supplies the power to the control unit 12 and each driving unit that requires power through the line 9 or the like. To do.
 電力供給部4は、電力受給部2にて受け取った電力を、接続線19を介して外部機器3に供給する。 The power supply unit 4 supplies the power received by the power receiving unit 2 to the external device 3 via the connection line 19.
 回動部7は、台座5の天面における中心近傍に設けられた図2に示す回転中心6を中心として台座5を回動させる。回動部7による回動とは、例えば左右方向における所定の回動基準位置を動作起点とし図2に示す正方向への回動と、負方向への回動とを繰り返す回動駆動と、左右いずれかの同一方向に360度を超えて回転し続ける回転駆動とが含まれる。回動部7は、正方向への回動駆動中に回転駆動に切り替えられた場合には、台座5を正方向に回転させ、負方向への回動駆動中に回転駆動に切り替えられた場合には、台座5を負方向に回転させる。 The rotation unit 7 rotates the pedestal 5 around the rotation center 6 shown in FIG. 2 provided near the center of the top surface of the pedestal 5. The rotation by the rotation unit 7 is, for example, a rotation drive that repeats the rotation in the positive direction and the rotation in the negative direction shown in FIG. Rotation drive that continues to rotate beyond 360 degrees in the same direction on either the left or right side is included. When the rotation unit 7 is switched to the rotation drive during the rotation drive in the positive direction, the rotation unit 7 rotates the base 5 in the positive direction and is switched to the rotation drive during the rotation drive in the negative direction. The base 5 is rotated in the negative direction.
 運転検出部8は、外部機器3の運転状態を検出するために、例えば電流量検出部10と比較部11とを備え、比較部11による比較結果に基づいて、外部機器3が運転中か否かを判定する。 The operation detection unit 8 includes, for example, a current amount detection unit 10 and a comparison unit 11 in order to detect the operation state of the external device 3, and whether or not the external device 3 is in operation based on the comparison result by the comparison unit 11. Determine whether.
 電流量検出部10は、電力供給部4が外部機器3に電力を供給する線路9に流れる電流量を検出する。なお、線路9は、電力受給部2と電力供給部4とを接続する電力路である。ここで電力路とは、電気結合が有ればよく、リード線のみならず基板の導泊パターンなども含まれる。 The current amount detection unit 10 detects the amount of current flowing through the line 9 through which the power supply unit 4 supplies power to the external device 3. The line 9 is a power path that connects the power receiving unit 2 and the power supply unit 4. Here, the electric power path only has to be electrically coupled, and includes not only lead wires but also a lead pattern of the substrate.
 比較部11は、電流量検出部10が検出した電流量と電流量記憶部(不図示)に予め記憶された所定の値との比較を行う。 The comparison unit 11 compares the current amount detected by the current amount detection unit 10 with a predetermined value stored in advance in a current amount storage unit (not shown).
 制御部12は、運転検出部8の検出結果に基づいて回動部7を動作させる。なお、電流量検出部10と比較部11と制御部12の動作については後ほど詳しく述べる。 The control unit 12 operates the rotation unit 7 based on the detection result of the operation detection unit 8. The operations of the current amount detection unit 10, the comparison unit 11, and the control unit 12 will be described in detail later.
 角度選択部13は、本体20の円錐台形状における側斜面に円柱形で回転可能なスイッチとして設けられる。角度選択部13には基準位置が記されており、当該基準位置を側斜面に記された60°、90°、120°、180°、360°の記載に一致させ、すなわち角度を選択することで、選択された角度が制御部12に送信される。つまり、回動部7の往復の回動駆動の角度、あるいは回転駆動を選択可能としている。 The angle selection unit 13 is provided as a switch that is rotatable in a columnar shape on the side slope of the truncated cone shape of the main body 20. The angle selection unit 13 has a reference position written therein, and the reference position matches the description of 60 °, 90 °, 120 °, 180 °, 360 ° written on the side slope, that is, the angle is selected. Thus, the selected angle is transmitted to the control unit 12. That is, it is possible to select the reciprocating rotation drive angle of the rotation unit 7 or the rotation drive.
 停止開始部14は、本体20の側斜面に円形で押し込み可能な円形のスイッチとして設けられる。停止開始部14が押し込まれると、押し込まれた旨が制御部12に送信される。つまり停止開始部14は、外部機器3の運転と、回動部7による台座5の回転駆動の停止および開始を選択可能としている。つまり、停止開始部14は、台座5の回転駆動による外部機器3の運転の停止および開始を選択可能としている。 The stop start portion 14 is provided as a circular switch that can be pushed into the side slope of the main body 20 in a circular shape. When the stop start unit 14 is pushed in, the fact that it is pushed in is transmitted to the control unit 12. That is, the stop start unit 14 can select the operation of the external device 3 and the stop and start of the rotational drive of the base 5 by the rotating unit 7. That is, the stop start unit 14 can select the stop and start of the operation of the external device 3 by the rotational drive of the base 5.
 台座5は、台座回転装置1の設置時に回動部7の上方に配置され、天面部をくぼませて形成された中空円筒形状を成している。天面部は円形であり、例えば球形の外部機器3を配置することができる。さらに台座5の底面開口から天面開口に向けて電力供給部4に接続された接続線19が引き出されている。 The pedestal 5 has a hollow cylindrical shape that is disposed above the rotating portion 7 when the pedestal rotating device 1 is installed, and is formed by recessing the top surface portion. The top surface portion is circular, and for example, a spherical external device 3 can be arranged. Further, a connection line 19 connected to the power supply unit 4 is drawn from the bottom opening of the base 5 toward the top opening.
 外部機器3は、例えば送風装置18として例示できる。 The external device 3 can be exemplified as the air blower 18, for example.
 送風装置18は、本実施の形態では、例えば送風運転スイッチ15と、送風部16と、吹出口17と吸込口(不図示)とを備えている。 In the present embodiment, the blower device 18 includes, for example, a blower operation switch 15, a blower unit 16, a blowout port 17, and a suction port (not shown).
 送風運転スイッチ15は、送風装置18の送風運転の入切の入力を受け付ける。 The blower operation switch 15 receives an input to turn on / off the blower operation of the blower 18.
 送風部16は、送風装置18に内蔵された羽根を回転させることにより、吸込口から吸気を行い、吸い込んだ空気を吹出口17から送風装置18外に排出させる。なお、送風装置18における運転とは、通電している状態を指すものではなく、送風部16が回転して送風を行っている状態を指すものである。 The air blower 16 rotates the blades built in the air blower 18 to suck in air from the suction port, and discharges the sucked air out of the air blower 18 from the air outlet 17. In addition, the driving | operation in the air blower 18 does not point out the state which is supplying with electricity, but points out the state in which the ventilation part 16 rotates and is blowing air.
 以上が台座回転装置1および外部機器3の概略構成である。 The above is the schematic configuration of the pedestal rotating device 1 and the external device 3.
 続いて、上記構成を有する台座回転装置1の動作について、図3を参照しながら説明する。なお図3は、運転検出部8として電流量検出部10および比較部11を用いたときの一例であって、比較部11の電流量に基づく運転判定処理を示す図である。 Subsequently, the operation of the pedestal rotating apparatus 1 having the above configuration will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 3 is an example when the current amount detection unit 10 and the comparison unit 11 are used as the operation detection unit 8, and is a diagram illustrating an operation determination process based on the current amount of the comparison unit 11.
 まず、台座回転装置1に電力が供給された状態で、台座回転装置1の台座5の底面開口(不図示)から引き出されている接続線19を送風装置18に接続する。この状態では、送風装置18に通電が行われているものの、送風部16は送風しておらず、すなわち送風装置18は運転してない。接続を完了後に、送風装置18を台座5の天面開口(不図示)に配置する。 First, in a state where electric power is supplied to the pedestal rotating device 1, the connecting wire 19 drawn from the bottom opening (not shown) of the pedestal 5 of the pedestal rotating device 1 is connected to the blower device 18. In this state, the air blower 18 is energized, but the air blower 16 is not blowing air, that is, the air blower 18 is not operating. After completing the connection, the blower 18 is disposed in the top opening (not shown) of the base 5.
 この状態で、例えば送風装置18の送風運転スイッチ15により送風運転を開始すると、接続線19から供給される電力を利用して送風部16が動作し、吹出口17からの送風が開始される。 In this state, for example, when the blowing operation is started by the blowing operation switch 15 of the blowing device 18, the blowing unit 16 operates using the power supplied from the connection line 19, and the blowing from the outlet 17 is started.
 送風装置18が送風運転を開始すると、停止の状態と比較して電流が増加する。ここで、送風装置18に供給される電流は、電力受給部2から電力供給部4へ向かって流れるが、この際に供給する電流が通過する線路9に配した電流量検出部10が、線路9に流れる電流量を検出する。 When the air blower 18 starts the air blowing operation, the current increases compared to the stopped state. Here, the current supplied to the blower 18 flows from the power receiving unit 2 toward the power supply unit 4, and the current amount detection unit 10 arranged on the line 9 through which the current supplied at this time passes is 9 is detected.
 電流量検出部10にて検出した電流量は、比較部11にて例えば電流量記憶部に記憶された所定の値と比較される。そしてこの比較結果に基づいて、運転検出部8が運転の状態を判定する。 The current amount detected by the current amount detection unit 10 is compared with a predetermined value stored in, for example, the current amount storage unit by the comparison unit 11. Based on the comparison result, the driving detection unit 8 determines the driving state.
 運転の判定は、図3に示すように、電流増加時と電流減少時に分けて設定した異なる2つの所定の値を利用して行われる。つまり比較部11は、電流量検出部10にて検出した電流量に対して、まず電流増加時か電流減少時かを判定する。そしてこの2つの状態のうちどちらであるかを判断(場合わけ)した後に、それぞれの場合に応じて2つの所定の値から適切な所定の値を選択し、検出した電流量と比較する。 As shown in FIG. 3, the operation is determined using two different predetermined values set separately when the current increases and when the current decreases. That is, the comparison unit 11 first determines whether the current is detected or not when the current is detected by the current detection unit 10. Then, after determining (in some cases) which one of the two states, an appropriate predetermined value is selected from two predetermined values according to each case, and compared with the detected current amount.
 送風装置18が停止している場合は、電流が小さいため電流量検出部10で検出する電流量は停止判定領域となる(例えばA点)。 When the blower 18 is stopped, the current amount detected by the current amount detection unit 10 is a stop determination region (for example, point A) because the current is small.
 次に送風装置18が送風運転を開始すると、流れる電流が増加するため、電流量検出部10で検出する電流量が点線で示したように増加する。この際、比較部11は、電流増加時であると判断し、所定の値である電流量Xと電流量検出部10が検出した電流量とを比較する。そして電流増加時として定めた所定の値である電流量Xを超えて電流量が運転判定領域(例えばB点)となると、比較部11、つまり運転検出部8は送風装置18の運転状態が運転であることを検出する。 Next, when the air blower 18 starts the air blowing operation, the flowing current increases, so that the current amount detected by the current amount detection unit 10 increases as indicated by the dotted line. At this time, the comparison unit 11 determines that the current is increasing, and compares the current amount X, which is a predetermined value, with the current amount detected by the current amount detection unit 10. When the current amount exceeds the current amount X that is a predetermined value determined when the current increases and the current amount enters the operation determination region (for example, point B), the comparison unit 11, that is, the operation detection unit 8 indicates that the operation state of the blower 18 is the operation state. Is detected.
 運転検出部8が運転を検出すると、その旨が制御部12に送信され、制御部12は回動部7を動作させる。 When the operation detection unit 8 detects the operation, the fact is transmitted to the control unit 12, and the control unit 12 operates the rotation unit 7.
 回動部7が動作することで台座5が回動し、台座5に配置された送風装置18が回動する。 The base 5 is rotated by the rotation unit 7 operating, and the blower 18 arranged on the base 5 is rotated.
 なお、制御部12による台座5の回動は、以下の2種類が可能である。 In addition, the following two types of rotation of the base 5 by the control unit 12 are possible.
 1つは、回転中心6を中心として台座5を所定の角度範囲で正方向及び負方向に往復回動する回動駆動である。これは、例えば使用者が角度選択部13によって予め設定した角度、例えば60°、90°、120°、180°のいずれかを選択すれば、制御部12が角度選択部13の設定位置を認識し、回動部7を設定に応じた往復の回動駆動とする。ここで例えば60°を選択した場合には、所定の起点を中心に正方向へ30°、負方向へ30°の合計60°の回動駆動を行う。 One is a rotation drive that reciprocally rotates the pedestal 5 around the rotation center 6 in a positive direction and a negative direction within a predetermined angle range. For example, if the user selects an angle preset by the angle selection unit 13, for example, 60 °, 90 °, 120 °, or 180 °, the control unit 12 recognizes the setting position of the angle selection unit 13. The rotating unit 7 is reciprocally rotated according to the setting. Here, for example, when 60 ° is selected, rotational driving of 60 ° in total, 30 ° in the positive direction and 30 ° in the negative direction, is performed around a predetermined starting point.
 他は、回転中心6を中心として台座5を正方向及び負方向のどちらか一方に回転を継続する回転駆動である。これは、例えば使用者が、角度選択部13によって、予め設定した角度の内から例えば360°を選択すれば、制御部12は角度選択部13の設定位置を認識し、回動部7を設定に応じた回転駆動とする。 The other is rotational driving in which the pedestal 5 continues to rotate in either the positive direction or the negative direction around the rotation center 6. For example, if the user selects, for example, 360 ° from preset angles by the angle selection unit 13, the control unit 12 recognizes the set position of the angle selection unit 13 and sets the rotation unit 7. Rotation drive according to
 さらに、使用者が停止開始部14を押下することで停止設定にすれば、運転検出部8が運転と判断していても、制御部12は、台座5を回動駆動または回転駆動させない。 Furthermore, if the user sets the stop by pressing the stop start unit 14, the control unit 12 does not drive or rotate the base 5 even if the operation detection unit 8 determines that the operation is being performed.
 また、運転検出部8が運転と判断している状態で、台座5が回動駆動または回転駆動していないときに使用者が停止開始部14を押下することで運転状態を選択すれば、台座5を回動駆動または回転駆動をさせる。 In addition, when the operation is determined by the operation detection unit 8 and the pedestal 5 is not rotationally driven or rotationally driven, if the user selects the operation state by pressing the stop start unit 14, the pedestal 5 is driven to rotate or rotate.
 これにより、使用者は台座5の回動を停止させて使用することと、送風装置18の運転に連動して台座5が回動させて使用することを選択できる。つまり、送風装置18から吹出される風の送風方向を固定して局所的な送風をし、あるいは回動に合せて送風方向を変えることで、送風範囲を拡げて使用することが可能である。 Thereby, the user can select to stop the rotation of the pedestal 5 and use the pedestal 5 while being rotated in conjunction with the operation of the blower 18. That is, it is possible to expand and use the blowing range by fixing the blowing direction of the wind blown from the blowing device 18 and blowing locally or changing the blowing direction according to the rotation.
 次に、このような運転状態から、送風装置18の送風運転スイッチ15により送風運転を停止すると、送風部16による送風を停止する。 Next, when the blowing operation is stopped by the blowing operation switch 15 of the blowing device 18 from such an operating state, the blowing by the blowing unit 16 is stopped.
 送風装置18が停止すると、運転の状態と比較して電流が減少する。 When the blower 18 stops, the current decreases compared to the operating state.
 送風装置18に流れる電流は、上述した通り電流量検出部10にて検出し、比較部11にて所定の値と比較し運転判断をする。 The current flowing through the blower 18 is detected by the current amount detection unit 10 as described above, and is compared with a predetermined value by the comparison unit 11 to determine operation.
 比較部11による運転判断は、図3に示すように、電流減少時として設定した所定の値である電流量Yと、電流量検出部10にて検出した電流量を比較することにより行う。 The operation determination by the comparison unit 11 is performed by comparing the current amount Y, which is a predetermined value set as the current decrease time, with the current amount detected by the current amount detection unit 10, as shown in FIG.
 まず、送風装置18が運転している場合は、電流が大きいため電流量検出部10で検出する電流量は運転判定領域となる(例えばC点)。 First, when the air blower 18 is in operation, since the current is large, the current amount detected by the current amount detection unit 10 is an operation determination region (for example, point C).
 次に送風装置18が停止すると、流れる電流が減少するため、電流量検出部10で検出する電流量が電流減少時の点線で示したように減少し、電流減少時として定めた所定の値である電流量Yを下回る。そして電流量が停止判定領域(例えばD点)となると、比較部11、つまり運転検出部8は送風装置18の運転状態が停止であることを検出する。 Next, when the blower 18 is stopped, the flowing current decreases, so the current amount detected by the current amount detection unit 10 decreases as indicated by the dotted line at the time of current decrease, and at a predetermined value determined as the current decrease time. Below a certain amount of current Y. When the amount of current is in the stop determination region (for example, point D), the comparison unit 11, that is, the operation detection unit 8 detects that the operation state of the blower 18 is stopped.
 運転検出部8が停止を検出すると、その旨が制御部12に送信され、制御部12は回動部7を停止させる。 When the operation detection unit 8 detects the stop, the fact is transmitted to the control unit 12, and the control unit 12 stops the rotation unit 7.
 このように、台座回転装置1の内部で外部機器3の運転状態を検出して台座5を回動するため、外部機器3に電力が供給されるのみでは動かず、外部機器3が運転を行っていると判定した場合にのみ台座5を回動させるようにしている。よって、台座回転装置1の動作を外部機器3の動作に連動して動作することができる。 In this way, since the operating state of the external device 3 is detected inside the pedestal rotating device 1 and the pedestal 5 is rotated, the external device 3 does not move only when power is supplied to the external device 3 and the external device 3 operates. The pedestal 5 is rotated only when it is determined that it is. Therefore, the operation of the base rotating device 1 can be operated in conjunction with the operation of the external device 3.
 また、意図しない外部機器3が接続された場合や、未接続状態では台座回転装置1を停止させておくことができる。例えば、運転判断の閾値である所定の値よりも高い電流量の位置に意図する外部機器3の運転時の電流量の閾値を設定する。これは例えば閾値の範囲として設定しても良い。そして、比較部11は、運転と判断した場合には常時この閾値の範囲内であることを比較により確認し、この範囲内を逸脱することがあれば、それが停止で無い場合には意図しない外部機器が接続されていると判定して制御部12にその旨を送信して回動を停止するのである。 In addition, the pedestal rotating device 1 can be stopped when an unintended external device 3 is connected or in an unconnected state. For example, a current amount threshold value during operation of the external device 3 is set at a position of a current amount higher than a predetermined value that is a threshold value for operation determination. This may be set as a threshold range, for example. And when the comparison part 11 judges that it is driving | running | working, it will always confirm by the comparison that it is in this threshold range, and if it deviates in this range, it is not intended when it is not a stop. It is determined that an external device is connected, and the fact is transmitted to the control unit 12 to stop the rotation.
 また、比較部11による運転判断は、電流上昇時と電流減少時で異なる所定の値を設定してヒステリシスを設け判断する方法を一例として記載したが、運転判断は短時間で判断が入れ替わるチャタリングを防止し、安定した判断ができれば良い。つまり所定の値を超えたときや下回ったときにタイマーカウントを始め、予め設定したカウント値に達したときに運転判断を切換えるなどの方法などでもよい。 In addition, although the operation determination by the comparison unit 11 is described as an example of a method of setting a predetermined value different between when the current increases and when the current decreases and determining the hysteresis, the operation determination includes chattering in which the determination is switched in a short time. It is only necessary to prevent and make a stable decision. In other words, a timer count may be started when a predetermined value is exceeded or falls, and driving judgment may be switched when a preset count value is reached.
 また、運転状態の検出に電流量を用いたが、電圧を検出しても良いし例えば外部機器3の運転時と停止時の振動量の差を検出しても良い。 Further, although the amount of current is used to detect the operation state, the voltage may be detected, for example, the difference between the vibration amount when the external device 3 is operating and when it is stopped may be detected.
 (実施の形態2)
 図4を参照しながら、本発明の実施の形態2に係る台座回転装置31について説明する。なお、台座回転装置31は本発明に係る台座回転装置の一例であって、図4は台座回転装置31の構成を示したブロック図である。
(Embodiment 2)
A pedestal rotating device 31 according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. The pedestal rotating device 31 is an example of a pedestal rotating device according to the present invention, and FIG. 4 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the pedestal rotating device 31.
 図4に示すように、実施の形態2に係る台座回転装置31は、制御部32が回動リセット部33および回動位置記憶部34を備える点において、実施の形態1に係る台座回転装置1と相違する。その他の構成については基本的に実施の形態1に係る台座回転装置1と略同様である。したがって、上記相違点についてのみ詳細に説明し、その他の構成については説明を省略する。なお、以下の実施の形態2に係る台座回転装置31の説明に関して、実施の形態1と同様の構成要素には実施の形態1と同様の符号を用いて説明している。 As shown in FIG. 4, the pedestal rotating device 31 according to the second embodiment is a pedestal rotating device 1 according to the first embodiment in that the control unit 32 includes a rotation reset unit 33 and a rotation position storage unit 34. And different. Other configurations are basically the same as those of the base rotating device 1 according to the first embodiment. Therefore, only the above differences will be described in detail, and description of the other configurations will be omitted. In addition, regarding the description of the pedestal rotating device 31 according to the following second embodiment, the same components as those of the first embodiment are described using the same reference numerals as those of the first embodiment.
 実施の形態2に係る台座回転装置31は、大きく分けて下部の本体35と本体35の上部に設けられた台座5とで構成されている。また、台座5上には外部機器3が配置されている。ただし外部機器3は、台座回転装置31に含まれない。本体35は、内部に電力受給部2、電力供給部4、回動部7、運転検出部8、線路9、電流量検出部10、比較部11、制御部32、角度選択部13、停止開始部14、および、接続線19を備える。 The pedestal rotating device 31 according to the second embodiment is roughly composed of a lower main body 35 and a pedestal 5 provided on the upper portion of the main body 35. An external device 3 is disposed on the pedestal 5. However, the external device 3 is not included in the pedestal rotating device 31. The main body 35 includes a power receiving unit 2, a power supply unit 4, a rotation unit 7, an operation detection unit 8, a line 9, a current amount detection unit 10, a comparison unit 11, a control unit 32, an angle selection unit 13, and a stop start. The unit 14 and the connection line 19 are provided.
 制御部32は、回動リセット部33と回動位置記憶部34とを備える。制御部32は、運転検出部8の検出結果に基づいて回動部7を動作させる。 The control unit 32 includes a rotation reset unit 33 and a rotation position storage unit 34. The control unit 32 operates the rotation unit 7 based on the detection result of the operation detection unit 8.
 回動リセット部33は、回動部7の往復の回動駆動の中心位置をリセットする。ここでリセットとは、中心位置を新たに定めることを意味し、例えばその時点(リセット時点)の台座5の位置が中心位置、すなわち回動基準位置となる。 The rotation reset unit 33 resets the central position of the reciprocating rotation drive of the rotation unit 7. Here, “reset” means to newly determine the center position. For example, the position of the base 5 at that time (reset time) becomes the center position, that is, the rotation reference position.
 回動位置記憶部34は、生産時に設定され、または回動リセット部33においてリセットされた回動駆動の中心位置である回動基準位置を記憶する。 The rotation position storage unit 34 stores a rotation reference position that is a center position of the rotation drive that is set at the time of production or reset by the rotation reset unit 33.
 台座5による、任意の回動基準位置からの往復運動や、任意の方向への回転運動を行うための処理の詳細について説明を行う。 Details of processing for performing reciprocating motion from an arbitrary rotation reference position and rotating motion in an arbitrary direction by the base 5 will be described.
 回動リセット部33が、台座5に接続された回動部7の往復の回動駆動の中心位置をリセットする点については述べたが、このリセットの手順についてまず説明する。 Although the point that the rotation reset unit 33 resets the center position of the reciprocating rotation drive of the rotation unit 7 connected to the pedestal 5 has been described, the reset procedure will be described first.
 回動リセット部33は、例えば角度選択部13によって角度を変更したときに、その変更した時点の位置を新たな回動基準位置と判断する。また、送風装置18が運転を開始した時点の位置を新たな回動基準位置と判断する。 When the angle is changed by the angle selection unit 13, for example, the rotation reset unit 33 determines that the position at the time of the change is a new rotation reference position. Further, the position at the time when the blower 18 starts operation is determined as a new rotation reference position.
 回動リセット部33が回動基準位置を判断すると、判断された際の回動基準位置が、回動位置記憶部34に記憶される。具体的には、回動位置記憶部34は、回動基準位置を以下のように記憶する。 When the rotation reset unit 33 determines the rotation reference position, the rotation reference position at the time of the determination is stored in the rotation position storage unit 34. Specifically, the rotation position storage unit 34 stores the rotation reference position as follows.
 すなわち、回動位置記憶部34は、例えば台座5に対して360°の1周を一定数、例えば360個のポジション番号として記憶することで、台座5上の特定の位置を回動基準位置として絶対位置で記憶することができる。 That is, the rotation position storage unit 34 stores, for example, one rotation of 360 ° with respect to the pedestal 5 as a fixed number, for example, 360 position numbers, so that a specific position on the pedestal 5 is used as the rotation reference position. Can be stored in absolute position.
 つまり、出荷時の位置をポジション番号0(絶対位置0)として定義した場合、上方から見て時計回りに30°移動した位置は、ポジション番号30となる。また、ポジション番号45から台座5が回動部7により時計回りに60°回転した位置はポジション番号105となる。 That is, when the position at the time of shipment is defined as position number 0 (absolute position 0), the position moved 30 ° clockwise as viewed from above is position number 30. Further, the position where the pedestal 5 is rotated 60 ° clockwise by the rotation unit 7 from the position number 45 is the position number 105.
 使用者が、角度選択部13を介して回動駆動の角度を変更したときに、変更した旨の信号が制御部32に送信される。 When the user changes the rotation drive angle via the angle selection unit 13, a signal indicating that the change has been made is transmitted to the control unit 32.
 変更した旨の信号を受け取った制御部32は、信号を受け取った時点のポジション番号を例えば回動部7から取得し、このポジション番号を回動位置記憶部34に回動基準位置として記憶する。 The control unit 32 that has received the signal indicating the change acquires the position number at the time of receiving the signal from, for example, the rotation unit 7 and stores this position number in the rotation position storage unit 34 as the rotation reference position.
 また、使用者が、停止開始部14によって回動運動を開始した場合、開始した旨の信号が制御部32に送信され、上記同様、制御部32は、信号を受け取った時点のポジション番号を回動位置記憶部34に回動基準位置として記憶する。 In addition, when the user starts the turning motion by the stop start unit 14, a signal indicating that the user has started is transmitted to the control unit 32, and the control unit 32 rotates the position number at the time of receiving the signal as described above. The movement position storage unit 34 stores the rotation reference position.
 また、回動基準位置が記憶されると同時に、制御部32は、新しい回動基準位置を基準として、角度選択部13で示された角度での回動を行う。 Further, at the same time as the rotation reference position is stored, the control unit 32 performs rotation at the angle indicated by the angle selection unit 13 with the new rotation reference position as a reference.
 これにより、使用者が任意の位置を回動の基点とすることができる。 This allows the user to set an arbitrary position as the pivot point.
 従来の装置に関して、例えば送風装置など、外部機器が所定の機能を提供するものである際には、この外部機器を回転動作させる場合においては、その向きが重要になることがある。しかしながら、このような向きが重要になる外部機器に対応できる装置は無かった。 With respect to conventional devices, for example, when an external device such as a blower device provides a predetermined function, the orientation may be important when the external device is rotated. However, there has been no device that can cope with an external device in which such orientation is important.
 これに対し、実施の形態2に係る台座回転装置31によれば、外部機器に電源が供給されているのみでは動作せず、外部機器が動作を行ったことに基づいて連動して動作するとともに、任意の回動基準位置による往復運動の動作や任意の方向に回転運動をすることができる。 On the other hand, the pedestal rotating device 31 according to the second embodiment does not operate only by supplying power to the external device, and operates in conjunction with the operation of the external device. The reciprocating motion can be performed at an arbitrary rotation reference position and the rotary motion can be performed in an arbitrary direction.
 本発明に係る台座回転装置は、外部機器の運転状態を判断して、自らの装置を動作させることを可能としたもので、空調用エアコンに加湿器を連動させるなど、機能を付加することに用いられる技術として有効である。さらに任意の位置を基準として回転や回動運転を任意のタイミングで運転させることが可能としたものである。つまり送風機や照明器具や表示装置などを搭載して任意の回転や回動させるなど、新たな機能を付加することに用いられる技術として有効である。 The pedestal rotating device according to the present invention is capable of operating the device by judging the operating state of the external device, and adding functions such as linking a humidifier to the air conditioner for air conditioning. It is effective as a technique used. Furthermore, rotation and rotation operation can be performed at an arbitrary timing with an arbitrary position as a reference. In other words, it is effective as a technique used for adding a new function such as mounting a blower, a lighting fixture, a display device, etc. and rotating it arbitrarily.
