ES2201935A1 - Real-time communication system for communicating with person trapped in lift, has phone interconnected to central station unit such that operator communicates with person by another phone strategically built cabin - Google Patents

Abstract

The system has multiple sensors (2) capturing faults of a lift and sending fault data to a transmitter (3). The transmitter transmits to the fault date a central station unit (6) through a switched telephone network (4) or a mobile network (5). An alarm button is built into a cabin of the lift such that a person strikes the alarm button when the person is trapped in the cabin. A phone (7) is interconnected to the central station unit such that an operator communicates with the person by another phone (8) strategically built the cabin.

Description

Real-time communication with people caught in an elevator

The present invention, as its name indicates is refers to a real-time communication system, which allows effectively control not only the state they are in the different elements of the elevator, if not also set a direct and real-time communication with the person trapped in the cabin.

Background of the invention

Various types of alarms or controls of the installations in the elevators, but not so capture the faults that occur in real time and at at the same time they can establish communication with the person (s) trapped / s, thus eliminating the claustrophobia that produces that situation, having many people feeling drowned by To think that they lack oxygen.

Description of the invention

The communication system is made of the following form:

A device with sensors is installed in the elevator that collect the faults that are occurring in the elevator such as lack of power (the equipment is connected to the double power supply available to the elevator, 220 V and batteries for emergency light), bad contact, blocking of the doors, breakage of fuses, interlocking of the doors, etc., all these faults that may occur in the elevator are performed by the series of the elevator installation itself where we connect the aforementioned sensors, which send signal to a telephone transmitter which in turn transmits them to a receiving unit for which software has been developed of communications in machine language, where the signals sent to faults that are occurring to subsequently protocolize them. In addition to the failures produced will be indicating the city, street, portal, maintainer of elevators that elevator takes, telephone of the maintainer etc.

This way we can know in real time, as many elevator faults as pickup sensors let's put.

The receiving unit that receives this information You will have a 24-hour service, receiving all the information previously exposed, in addition to breakdowns, when a trapped person will also receive this signal, since logically the trapped person will press the alarm button that all elevators are incorporated into the cabin, when pressed this button will appear on the receiving unit PERSON TRAPPED IN CABIN, then the operator will pick up the phone that is interconnected in the receiving unit and when picking up will perform also an automatic telephone pickup that is incorporated into the elevator cabin strategically camouflaged by grid in order to avoid vandalism or manipulation.

The operator's safety with respect to really is a person trapped in the cabin is total as long as as for the reception of PERSON TRAPPED IN CABIN, you will have received a breakdown in that elevator.

Once the automatic pick-up is done, it start a conversation between trapped person and operator, and meanwhile the operator will also be calling the maintainer of  elevators in order to evict the person, thus eliminating the claustrophobia.

Brief description of the attached drawing

Step to reflect with a practical example of system here recommended, by means of a scheme that appears in the Annex plan

In reference (1) we wanted to represent the elevator car in which a trapped person stays, in the upper part of the cabin are the pickup sensors of faults (2), which are sent to the transmitter (3) which transmits either through the switched telephone network (4) or the mobile telephony (5) to a central receiving unit (6) with service 24 hours which will be receiving the breakdowns that are being producing, in which city, street, portal, maintainer, number of maintainer phone, etc. As the person who is trapped will press the alarm button built into the elevator car will will produce the reception of PERSON CAUGHT IN CABIN, then will proceed to pick up the interconnected telephone (7) to the receiving unit, causing the pickup of the telephone (8) strategically incorporated in the cockpit elevator in order to avoid vandalism or manipulation, at the same time will be telling the elevator maintainer and if he is not service to firefighters or follow the instructions that previously they have been given.

Claims (1)

1. Real-time communication with people trapped in an elevator, characterized by having an event sensor sensor unit which is sent to a transmitter which, via landline or mobile telephone, sends these events to a central receiving unit , which interprets and translates and protocols these events and when there is a double signal (breakdown plus PERSON ATTACKED IN THE CABIN), the operator of the control panel by picking up the interconnected telephone in the receiving unit, produces the automatic pick-up of the telephone strategically installed in the cabin , thus establishing communication between the operator and the trapped person thus eliminated claustrophobia.
