Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to an elevator operating device, and more particularly to an elevator operating device suitable for elevators for high-rise residential buildings.

[Prior art] Inside the elevator car, for example, there is a
As shown in Publication No. 51, a driving panel is provided with an array of destination floor registration buttons (referred to as car call buttons) for registering destination floors. The car call buttons are arranged upward as the number of floors increases, with the car call buttons on the - floor at the bottom. For this reason, children in the lower grades of elementary school and infants may not be able to reach the car call buttons on the upper floors. Therefore, children and infants living on the upper floors can go outside the building by pressing the car call button on the first floor from their home, but on the - floor, they can press the car call button on the higher floor where their home is located. Some people are unable to use the elevator to return to their homes because they cannot push it.

For such children and infants, it is very painful for them to use the stairs to return to their homes on the 20th floor, for example.

In order to solve this problem, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 64-34886 proposes an elevator in which a step is provided on the side plate of the car.

[Problem to be solved by the invention] The elevator car has a structure in which side plates are fixed to the floor and ceiling using bolts, etc., and adjacent side plates are also fixed using bolts, etc. There is.

The only support members that support these side plates are the left and right front pillars that make up the entrance and exit portion of the car.In recent years, cars have become lighter in weight in order to save energy, and as a result, reinforcing materials for the side plates that were previously provided have been replaced. It was also removed and the structure is not very strong.

Even children weigh around 20 kg, and in order to provide a step stool on the side plate of an elevator that will not deform even when a child stands on it according to the above-mentioned publication, the mounting part must be reinforced to make it a sturdy structure. For this reason, the structure of the step itself becomes complicated, and the existing elevator car needs to be significantly modified, which not only increases the cost, but also may not be able to be installed depending on the elevator.

The present invention has been made in view of the current state of elevators as described above, and its purpose is to eliminate the need for major modifications to existing elevators and to provide a way for users to easily access the destination floor registration button at the top of the operating panel. To provide an elevator operating device that allows passengers who cannot reach higher floors to reach higher floors using the elevator.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The above purpose is to provide an elevator operating device that operates a car to a predetermined floor by operating a car destination floor registration button provided on an in-car operation panel. This is achieved by providing a low-position button provided near the lower end of the dowel, and a driving means for moving the dove in accordance with the operation of the low-position button.

[Operation When a passenger who cannot reach the destination floor registration button at the top of the driving panel operates the low-position button, the operation means is activated and the car is operated to the specified floor. Therefore, even passengers who cannot reach the destination floor registration button at the top can use the elevator to reach higher floors by repeating this operation every time the car arrives at a predetermined floor.

Next, the operation of the embodiment configured as described above will be explained.

For example, if a kindergartener whose home is on the top floor wants to get off the kindergarten shuttle bus and take the elevator home, he will press the unillustrated landing call button on the first floor, and the car will be called and arrive at the first floor. The door is opened and the driving direction is set to up. The kindergarten child riding in the car cannot reach the car destination floor registration button 3 on the top floor where his home is located, so he operates the low-position button 7. At this time, the car has landed on the first floor, so the normally open contacts 9a and 9c of the car position detection relay on the first floor are turned on, and the driving direction is set to ascend, so the normally open contacts 9a and 9c of the car position detection relay on the first floor are set to ascend. The open contact 20a is turned on.

When the low position button 7 is operated in this way, the DC power terminal P

A closed circuit is formed between the terminal N and the DC power supply terminal N, and the car destination floor registration relay 4 on the second floor is energized.

When the car destination floor registration relay 4 on the second floor is energized, the normally open contact 4a is turned on, the car destination floor registration relay 4 is self-held, and the elevator car runs toward the second floor. When the car arrives at the second floor, the normally closed contact 10d of the car position detection relay on the second floor is turned OFF, and the car destination floor registration relay 4 on the second floor is deenergized, but the upward driving direction selection relay is not activated until the door is closed. energized. Therefore, the normally open contact 20b of the ascending driving direction selection relay is turned ON, and since the car has landed on the second floor, the normally open contacts 10a and 10c of the car position detection relay on the second floor are turned ON.

In this state, when the kindergarten child operates the low position button 7 again, the DC power terminal P, the low position button 7, the normally closed contact 9b of the first floor car position detection relay, and the turned ON second floor car position detection. A closed circuit is established between the normally open contact 10a of the relay, the normally closed contact 12b of the car position detection relay on the third floor, the normally closed contact 14b of the car position detection relay on the top floor, the low operation relay 8, and the DC power terminal N. is formed and the low run relay 8 is energized.

When the third floor car destination floor registration relay 5 is energized in this way, the normally open contact 5a is turned ON, and the car destination floor registration relay 5
is self-retained, and the elevator car runs toward the third floor.

In this way, each time the elevator car arrives at a floor, the kindergarten child presses the low-position button 7 to move the car to the next floor, and when the car arrives at the floor before the top floor, the car moves to the next floor. The normally open contacts 13a and 13c of the detection relay are turned on, and the normally open contact 20c of the upward operation direction selection relay is turned on.
becomes.

When a kindergarten child operates the low position button 7 in this state, the DC power terminal P, the low position button 7, and the normally closed contact 9b of the car position detection relay up to the front floor of the floor before the top floor are activated.

10b, llb..., normally open contact 13a of the car position detection relay on the floor before the top floor, normally closed contact 14b of the car position detection relay on the top floor, low level operation relay 8 and DC power supply A closed circuit is formed at terminal N, and low-level operation relay 8 is energized. When the low-level operation relay 8 is energized, the normally open contact 8c is turned ON, and the DC power supply terminal P, the normally open contacts 20c, 13c, and 8c that are ON, and the normally closed contact 14
d. A closed circuit is formed by the car destination floor registration relay 6 on the top floor and the DC power supply terminal N, and the car destination floor registration relay 6 on the top floor is energized.

When the car destination floor registration relay 6 on the top floor is energized in this manner, the normally open contact 6a is turned on, the car destination floor registration relay 6 is self-held, and the elevator car is operated to the top floor. When the car reaches the top floor, the normally closed contact 14d of the car position detection relay opens, and the car destination floor registration relay 6 is deenergized. In this way, the kindergarten child can take the elevator to the top floor of his home by pressing the low position button 7 on each floor.

Next, a case will be explained in which a kindergartener living on the top floor goes to play with a friend on the lower floor by using the elevator.

For convenience of explanation, it is assumed that the car destination floor registration relay circuit on the third floor shown in FIG. 2 is the car destination floor registration circuit on the floor one floor below the top floor, which is not completely shown in the figure.

When a kindergartener presses a landing call button (not shown) on the top floor, the car is called and arrives at the top floor, the door is opened and the driving direction is set to descend. The kindergarten child riding in the car cannot reach the car destination floor registration button on the floor where his friend's house is located, so he operates the low-position button 7. At this time, the normally open contacts 12a and 12c of the car position detection relay on the top floor (according to the above-mentioned assumption for convenience) are turned ON, and the operating direction is set to descend, so the normally open contact 30b of the descending operating direction selection relay is turned on. It becomes ON.

When the low position button 7 is operated in this way, the DC power terminal P

b... A closed circuit is formed by the normally open contact 12a of the car position detection relay on the top floor that is turned on (based on the above assumption), the low-level operation relay 8, and the DC power supply terminal N, and the low-level operation relay 8 is turned on. energized.

When the low-level operation relay 8 is energized, the normally open contact 8b is turned on, and the DC power supply terminal P is turned on, the normally open contact 30
b, 12c, 8b, the normally closed contact 11d, the car destination floor registration relay 5 on the floor one floor below the top floor (according to the above assumption), and the DC power supply terminal N form a closed circuit, and the car destination floor registration relay 5 energized.

When the car destination floor registration relay 5 is energized in this way, the normally open contact 5a is turned on, the car destination floor registration relay 5 is self-held, and the elevator car operates from the top floor to the floor one floor below. do.

Thereafter, in the same way as in the case of upward operation, by operating the low position button 7 every time the car arrives at a floor, the car will be operated sequentially to the next floor, and the kindergarten child will reach the desired floor where the friend's house is located. You can go there by elevator.

In this way, according to this embodiment, even kindergarten children who cannot reach the car destination floor registration button of the destination floor they are trying to go to by elevator can set it in a position where they can reach it every time the car arrives at each floor, as described above. By pressing the low-position button 7, the car can be moved one floor at a time to reach the destination floor. Therefore, the inconvenience of using stairs to reach higher floors, which was conventional, is eliminated.

In addition, it can be installed without major modification by simply making a simple circuit change to an existing elevator, and the installation cost is low.

In addition, although the above-mentioned example explained the case where a kindergarten child uses an elevator, the present invention is not limited to this example, and the present invention also covers passengers using wheelchairs, for example.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained in detail above, according to the present invention, even passengers who cannot reach the car destination floor registration buttons arranged above the driving panel can register the car by operating the low-position buttons at each floor. You can take the elevator to the desired floor. Further, the present invention has a simple circuit configuration and can be installed in an existing elevator without requiring major modification, which is advantageous in terms of installation cost.
