Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an elevator apparatus including a car which can be raised and lowered in a hoistway.
  • a safety device for maintenance of an elevator including a load weight detecting section for detecting a load weight of a car and a car door passage detecting section for detecting passage through an entrance of an opened car door, for detecting whether or not a maintenance person is present on the car based on information from each of the load weight detecting section and the car door passage detecting section.
  • the load weight detecting section detects an increase in load weight of the car and, in addition, the car door passage detecting section does not detect the passage, the presence of the maintenance person on the top of the car is detected to inhibit a normal operation of the elevator (see Patent Document 1).
  • a safety device provided on a top of an elevator car, including a light-emitting device and a light-receiving device for receiving light from the light-emitting device, the light-emitting device and the light-receiving device being provided on the car, for detecting whether or not a worker is present on the top of the car.
  • a light-emitting device and a light-receiving device for receiving light from the light-emitting device, the light-emitting device and the light-receiving device being provided on the car, for detecting whether or not a worker is present on the top of the car.
  • two reflecting mirrors are provided on the top of the car.
  • One of the reflecting mirrors is located above the light-emitting device, whereas the other reflecting mirror is located above the light-receiving device.
  • the light from the light-emitting device is reflected by one of the reflecting mirrors to horizontally travel above a working area on the car. Thereafter, the light is reflected by the other reflecting mirror to reach the light-receiving device.
  • the conventional safety device on the top of the elevator car when the reception of the light by the light-receiving device is stopped, the presence of the worker on the top of the car is detected to issue an alarm and stop the car (see Patent Document 2).
  • Document JP H 02 169482 discloses an elevator safety system wherein a signal from a transmitter held by a maintenance inspector is received by an antenna on top of the hoistway so the elevator car operation is stopped.
  • the present invention has been made in order to solve the problems described above, and has an object to obtain an elevator apparatus capable of preventing a height size of a hoistway from being increased and further ensuring the detection of the presence/absence of a maintenance person on a top of a car.
  • An elevator apparatus includes: a car movable in a hoistway; a light-emitting device for emitting light, the light-emitting device being provided to any one of a top of the hoistway and an upper part of the car; a light-receiving device for receiving the light from the light-emitting device, the light-receiving device being provided to another one of the top of the hoistway and the upper part of the car; and a controller capable of switching an operation mode of an elevator between a normal operation mode for moving the car at normal speed and an inspection operation mode for moving the car at a speed lower than the normal speed, the controller performing switching from the normal operation mode to the inspection operation mode when detection of light reception by the light-receiving device is stopped.
  • the light-emitting device is provided to any one of the top of the hoistway and the upper part of the car, whereas the light-receiving device is provided to the other one of the top of the hoistway and the upper part of the car.
  • the operation mode of the elevator is switched by the controller from the normal operation mode to the inspection operation mode. Therefore, when the maintenance person rides on the top of the car, the light from the light-emitting device is blocked by the maintenance person. As a result, the detection of the reception of light by the light-receiving device can be stopped.
  • the detection of the presence/absence of the maintenance person on the top of the car can be further ensured. Moreover, it is no longer necessary to cause the light from the light-emitting device to horizontally pass above the car, and hence the members such as the reflecting mirrors provided on the car for the horizontal passage of the light can be eliminated. Thus, the substantial height size of the car can be reduced, thereby preventing the height size of the hoistway from being increased.

Specifically, when the detection of the reception of light by at least any one of the light-receiving devices 10a to 10c is stopped, the controller 12 performs the switching from the normal operation mode to the inspection operation mode. Moreover, after the switching from the normal operation mode to the inspection operation mode, the controller 12 inhibits the switching from the inspection operation mode to the normal operation mode in response to the information from each of the light-receiving devices 10a to 10c.
  • the controller 12 also controls the switching from the inspection operation mode to the normal operation mode based on information from the return switch 11. Specifically, only when detecting the operation of the return switch 11, the controller 12 performs the switching from the inspection operation mode to the normal operation mode.
  • the operation mode of the elevator is not switched to the normal operation mode unless the return switch 11 is operated even if the reception of light is then detected again by all the light-receiving devices 10a to 10c.

  • the operation mode of the elevator is switched from the normal operation mode to the inspection operation mode by the control of the controller 12.
  • the operation of the elevator is switched by the operation of the switch for moving the car at low speed, which is provided on the top of the car 2, to an inspection operation for moving the car 2 at low speed.
  • the inspection operation mode is kept as the operation mode of the elevator. Specifically, the operation mode of the elevator is kept regardless of the information from each of the light-receiving devices 10a to 10c. Therefore, the operation mode of the elevator is not switched from the inspection operation mode to the normal operation mode in response to the information from each of the light-receiving devices 10a to 10c.
  • the return switch 11 For returning the operation mode of the elevator back to the normal operation mode, the return switch 11 is operated by the maintenance person 13. As a result, the operation mode of the elevator is switched from the inspection operation mode to the normal operation mode.

  • the multiple light-emitting devices 9a to 9c are located to be horizontally spaced apart from each other, whereas the multiple light-receiving devices 10a to 10c are located to be horizontally spaced apart from each other. Therefore, the presence/absence of the maintenance person 13 can be detected at a plurality of positions on the top of the car 2, thereby further ensuring the detection of the presence/absence of the maintenance person 13 on the top of the car 2.
  • the respective horizontal positions of the light-emitting devices 9a to 9c are set based on the positions of the predetermined devices to be maintained, which are provided in the hoistway 1. Therefore, the presence/absence of the maintenance person 13 can be detected at the position with a high possibility of the presence of the maintenance person 13 for the maintenance and inspection. As a result, the detection of the presence/absence of the maintenance person 13 on the top of the car 2 can be further ensured.
  • controller 12 performs the switching from the inspection operation mode to the normal operation mode only when the operation of the return switch 11 provided on the top of the car 2 is detected, and hence the inspection operation mode can be prevented from being accidentally switched to the normal operation mode against the will of the maintenance person 13.
