Definitions

  • the invention relates to an input module for inputting control commands for an elevator control having the features of the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • an input module with a keyboard is usually provided on a wall of the car of an elevator system and on the individual floors, which are approached by the car, which is usually associated with a light indicator for acknowledging the input control command.
  • a large number of mechanical buttons are used to enter the control commands.
  • mechanical buttons are prone to failure.
  • input modules with mechanical keyboards for each elevator installation must be adapted separately by mechanical modification to the local conditions.
  • a lower susceptibility to interference results in input modules that have a so-called touchscreen monitor, as for example from the US-A-5,679,934 are known.
  • Such touch screen monitors allow the input of control commands by touching the monitor, and the acknowledgment of the input control commands can be made on the monitor by appropriate display.
  • the monitor has a smooth glass surface, which can also be easily cleaned.
  • input modules with a touchscreen monitor are costly and require a very careful treatment.
  • an input module having the features of the preamble of claim 1 is known. It has a keypad with a touchpad that includes a contact assembly with two interdigitated conductors. The contact arrangement is arched over by a deformable film. If the film is pressed by the user on the contact arrangement, the two conductors are electrically connected to one another via the film.
  • the input module thus forms an electrical switch, via which a predetermined electrical signal can be output by actuation.
  • Object of the present invention is to develop an input module of the type mentioned in such a way that it is standardized and inexpensive to produce in production, without it being necessary to take into account the specific circumstances of a particular elevator installation in the production of the module.
  • Composite glass keyboards are known per se. They comprise a cover glass, a carrier glass as well as between cover and carrier glass arranged interconnects which are arranged one above the other in the field of touch probes, by pressure on the cover glass, a mechanical contact between two intersecting tracks can be closed, so that a position-dependent control signal can be output ,
  • the cover glass is designed like a membrane. It is advantageous if the cover glass as well as the carrier glass has a high degree of transmission for visible light, for example a transmittance of over 90%.
  • the touch panels provided by the composite glass keyboard can be freely programmably assigned to a desired control signal for the elevator control.
  • This allows a uniform presetting of the assignment of the touch panels in the manufacturing plant of the input module, for example, in the form that each touchpad a specific floor, which is to be operated by the car is assigned. If, for example, the assignment of the touch panels is to be changed later, for example, due to changes in the occupancy of the building, then the change can be made by reprogramming without having to modify mechanical components of the input module.
  • Such a software-related change can of course also be made on site when installing the input module in an elevator system.
  • the input modules can thus be produced in standardisierbarer production in large numbers, without the concrete circumstances of a particular elevator installation must be considered in the production of the input modules.
  • the user is provided with a smooth glass surface that can be cleaned in a simple manner, without incurring the high cost of a touchscreen monitor.
  • composite glass keyboards have a significantly higher load capacity than touch screen monitors.
  • a particularly compact embodiment of the input module can be achieved in that the command processing and display control unit comprises a behind the composite glass keyboard arranged substantially parallel to this circuit board.
  • the printed circuit board thus virtually forms a back cover of the composite glass keyboard.
  • a very small distance between the composite glass keyboard and the circuit board can be selected, so that the input module can be integrated in a wall of a car of a lift system even in very confined spaces.
  • the illuminated display comprises the touch panels of the composite glass keyboard respectively associated lighting elements for acknowledgment of the control commands.
  • This allows an embodiment wherein at least a portion of the touch panels, preferably all the touch panels, each associated with a light-emitting element, which is actuated, for example, in the area of the respective touch panel of the command processing and display control unit upon actuation of the composite glass keyboard.
  • touch panels associated lighting elements can be controlled due to external control signals.
  • one or more touch panels serve as display fields, which lights up in the presence of a specific operating state of the elevator system, for example in case of overload or special drive or for the direction of travel.
  • the luminous elements are held on the circuit board.
  • the circuit board in such an embodiment not only supports the electronic components of the command processing and display control unit, but also serves as a support for the lighting elements.
  • the lighting elements may be formed, for example, as LED diodes.
  • the light-emitting elements can be provided to arrange the light-emitting elements on the side facing away from the composite glass keyboard side of the circuit board. It is advantageous if the printed circuit board associated with the lighting elements each having a passage, so that the emitted light rays from the light elements can pass through the circuit board and reach the touch panels of the composite glass keyboard. It is advantageous here if an optical light transmission element is arranged at the passages, for example an optical lens, so that the largest possible proportion of the light radiation emitted by the light elements can be directed to the respectively associated touch field.
  • the input module comprises lighting elements for illuminating the touch panels. It is advantageous if the lighting elements are held on the circuit board.
  • the touch panels of the composite glass keyboard are uniformly illuminated by means of the lighting elements, while lighting elements for acknowledging the control commands each provide a visible only in a portion of the touch panels acknowledgment signal.
  • the illumination elements and the lighting elements for acknowledgment of the control commands differ in their color.
  • the lighting elements provide a flash signal.
  • the laminated glass keyboard is backed by a replaceable transparent or partially transparent labeling film.
  • the labeling foil By means of the labeling foil, the touch panels of the laminated glass keyboard can be labeled.
  • the labeling film is interchangeable held on the back of the composite glass keyboard. This gives the possibility of providing a uniformly designed labeling film at the factory, which however can be changed by a user at any time, so that a labeling foil adapted to the respective local circumstances of the elevator installation can be used.
  • the labeling film can be replaced if the assignment of the individual touch panels is changed.
  • the input module according to the invention can thus be used in a variety of standardized production.
  • the inscription foil in each case has an opening in a partial region of the individual touch fields, so that the light radiation provided by the luminous elements and / or the illumination elements can pass through the illumination film in the area of the apertures.
  • the command processing and display control unit comprises a BUS interface for electrical connection to the central elevator control.
  • the input module according to the invention can be used both as a device for inputting control commands in a car of an elevator installation and as a terminal for the destination selection control of elevators, by means of which the users can be assigned to an elevator selected by the elevator control.
  • Such terminals are used in elevator systems with multiple elevators and are each arranged at a stop of the elevators in the floor area.
  • an input module 10 is shown, which is integrated in a wall 12 of a car of an elevator system.
  • the input module 10 comprises a held in a mounting frame 14 transparent compound glass keyboard 16 with a deposited label sheet 18 and a parallel to the composite glass keyboard 16 and spaced from the rear of this command processing and display control unit 20 having a plurality of electronic components that on a common circuit board 24 are held.
  • the structure of the composite glass keyboard 16 is in particular from the sectional view according to FIG. 2 clear. It comprises a cover glass in the form of a glass membrane 26 and a carrier glass 28, on whose side facing the circuit board 24 facing the label sheet 18 is arranged. Corresponding conductor tracks 32 are arranged on the glass membrane 26 facing the front side of the carrier glass 28, wherein, however, the conductor tracks 32 of the carrier glass 28 aligned perpendicular to the conductor tracks 30 of the glass membrane 26 are.
  • the interconnects 30, 32 thus form a grid structure.
  • spacers 34 the glass membrane 26 and the carrier glass 28 are held at a distance from each other such that the printed conductors 30 and 32 do not touch each other in the unloaded state of the glass membrane 26.
  • the composite glass keyboard 16 thus provides a position-dependent electrical signal, which is passed via an electrical connection line 36 to the command processing and display control unit 20 and electronically processed by the same.
  • the command processing and display control unit 20 in turn is connected via a connecting cable 38 to a conventional, not shown in the drawing elevator control in electrical connection, so that via the connecting cable 38 control signals between the command processing and display control unit 20 and the elevator control are transferable.
  • a plurality of touch panels 40 are defined by the grid-shaped conductor tracks 30 and 32, which are each associated with a crossing point of the interconnects 30 and 32. If the glass membrane 26 is pressurized in the region of one of these touch panels 40, then the associated electrical contact between conductor tracks 30 and 32 is closed and a control signal which can be assigned to the respectively actuated touch panel is output via the connecting cable 38.
  • one or more touch panels 40 can each be assigned a specific control function, and by means of the label sheet 18 arranged at the rear, the touch panels 40 can be labeled according to their assigned function.
  • individual touchpad 40 can take over the function of floor call buttons 1 to 9, so that by pressing one of these touch fields due to an output from the command processing and display control unit 20 control signal of the elevator car of the elevator system moves to the corresponding selected floor.
  • a labeling film with such a label of the touch panels 40 is in FIG. 3 shown.
  • the floor call buttons 1 to 9 are in the corresponding labeling this label more touch panels 40 as door control buttons 42, 44 occupied for opening or closing the elevator doors.
  • Another touchpad 40 is occupied in the form of a fan operating button 46 for actuating a fan provided in the car.
  • the circuit board 24 carries on its composite glass keyboard 16 front facing a variety of light emitting elements in the form of LED diodes 48, each associated with a touch panel 40 and upon actuation of the respective Touchpad emit a light signal.
  • the laminated glass keyboard 16 also has a display area 50 with display fields 52.
  • a display area 50 with display fields 52.
  • the display fields 52 although between the glass membrane 26 and the carrier glass 28 also conductor tracks 30 and 32, but in the area of the display panel 50, an electrical contact between the conductor tracks 30 and 32nd closed, this does not result in the illustrated embodiment of the input module 10 due to the selected programming provided by the command processing and display control unit 20 output, but can be input via the connecting cable 38, an input signal from the central elevator control, for example, a certain operating condition of Elevator system corresponds, so that then a display 52 associated with an LED diode lights up and thus indicates the operating condition.
  • the display panels 52 can take over the function of an active touchpad 40 for the input of control commands.
  • the touch and display fields 40 and 52 of the input module according to the invention receive a factory default in the production of the input module, as described above with reference to FIG. 3 was explained. With reference to FIG. 4 However, it may also be provided that only four touch panels 40 assume a control function in the form of floor call buttons for a basement, a ground floor and first and second floors, while the other touch panels 40 either have no function by their operation no corresponding control signal via the connecting cable 38 is transmitted to a central elevator control, or they serve, as already described above, as display panels 52.
  • the change in the assignment of the touchpad 40th makes a change to the label sheet required.
  • a correspondingly changed labeling film 118 is in FIG. 4 shown.
  • the labeling films 18 and 118 are opaque in the area of the active touchpad 40, but they each have in an edge region of the active touchpad 40 on a breakthrough 49, which is associated with an LED diode 48, so that the respective acknowledgment signal only in the region of the openings 49 lights up. In the area of the display panel 50, however, the labeling films 18 and 118 are translucent, so that the attached in the respective display panel 52 lettering when the associated LED diode lights up is readable.
  • labeling film also in the area of the touch panels 40 translucent.
  • a correspondingly formed labeling film 218 is in FIG. 5 shown. If an active touchpad 40 is actuated in this labeling foil 218, then the entire touchpad 40 lights up for call acknowledgment.
