Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve the easiness in handling an elevator by furnishing a direction indicator to display the elevator rising and falling directions, providing a digital cage position indicator to display the position of elevator cage, and installing a digital number-of-storeys indicator which is located adjoining to this cage position indicator and displays the number of storeys of the building concerned. CONSTITUTION:Direction indicator lamps 6U, 6D inform whether the elevator is rising or falling, while a digital cage position indicator 7 informs the current position of elevator cage. Any person concerned can know at the same time the storey No. where he is on a digital storey No. indicator 7A from its displaying '8' at all times, i.e. can know that the service storey No. of the elevator is '8'. This permits him to judge instantly how many storeys the elevator cage must travel to the floor he is standing. Thus the easiness of handling the elevator will be enhanced.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to display devices for elevators, particularly those equipped with digital car position indicators.

[Prior Art] FIG. 3 is a front schematic view of an elevator landing entrance showing a conventional elevator display device. This elevator display device consists of a landing button (2) and an analog car position indicator (3) provided near the elevator landing (1). For example, it was possible to know the current car position and the number of floors in the building, ie, the number of floors serviced by the elevator.

After that, elevator display devices such as those shown in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 60-77079 appeared for reasons such as coping with a high number of floors, miniaturizing the device, reducing and standardizing the types of display devices, and reducing costs. .

FIG. 4 is a front view showing another conventional elevator display device disclosed in, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 80-77079, FIG. 5 is a blinking control circuit diagram of the same elevator display device, and FIG. 6 is a digital It is a diagram showing each element of the car position indicator light.

In the figure, the elevator display device (13) that digitally displays part of the operating status of the elevator includes direction indicator lights (8U) and (6D) that indicate whether the elevator is operating in the up or down direction, as shown in Figure 4. , a sun-shaped digital car position indicator light (7) indicating the elevator position and a surface plate (4).
) in the display window (5) provided in the display window (5).

The conventional blinking control circuit of the elevator display device shown in FIG. 4 is as shown in FIG. By SU (SDl), the ascending (descending) direction indicator light 8υ(
8D)'s ascending (descending) lamp LUP (LDN) lights up. It should be noted that once the direction of elevator operation is determined, the light is turned on not only when the elevator is running but also when the elevator is stopped. The elevator position is a floor contact point 8 that sends an electric signal to each floor position.
1 to S groups, a matrix circuit (10), and a sun-shaped digital car position indicator light (7) as shown in FIG. 6.

In this way, the car position indicator is connected to the digital position indicator (7).
) is being replaced.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In the conventional elevator display device as shown in FIGS. Compared to the position indicator (3), it had the following disadvantages.

First, the digital car position indicator (7) cannot tell you the number of service floors of an elevator, and the total number of service floors varies from building to building, that is, from elevator to elevator. On the other hand, the elevator was not easy to use.

Second, with the digital position indicator (7), if you know what floor you are standing on when waiting for an elevator, you can calculate how many floors will be on the way. When I didn't know what floor the car was on, I couldn't judge how many floors the car was traveling to.

The present invention solves the above problems, and even when using a digital display device, it is possible to know what floor you are standing on, and to judge how many floors the car is traveling on. In this embodiment, it is possible to obtain an elevator display device that can

[Means for Solving the Problems] An elevator display device according to the present invention
It includes a direction indicator that displays the direction of descent, a digital car position indicator that displays the elevator car position, and a digital floor number indicator that is adjacent to the digital car position indicator and displays the number of floors of the building. It is configured as follows.

[Function] In the present invention, in addition to a direction indicator that displays the ascending/descending direction of the elevator and a digital car position indicator that displays the elevator car position, a digital floor number display that displays the number of floors of the building is provided. Since the digital car position indicator is equipped with a digital car position indicator, you can know the location of the elevator car, and the digital floor number indicator allows you to know the number of floors you are standing on in the building. I was able to determine whether the vehicle was running or not.

[Embodiment] FIG. 1 is a front view of an elevator display device according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a blinking control circuit of the elevator display device. In the figure, components that are the same as those of the conventional example are given the same reference numerals, and explanations of duplicated components will be omitted. (7A) is a digital floor number display that is installed on the display board (4) adjacent to the digital car position display (7) and displays the number of floors of the building, and L1□ to L17 are digital floor number displays. Each element lamp of the device (7a) is directly connected to a power source as shown in FIG.

In the elevator display device configured as described above, the direction indicator lights (60) and (6D) indicate whether the elevator is moving up or down, and the digital position indicator (7) indicates the current car of the elevator. By knowing the position and at the same time, for example, by constantly displaying "8" on the digital floor display (7A) as shown in Figure 1, you can check the digital floor number display (7A) to see where you are standing in the building. It is possible to know that the number of floors, that is, the number of floors serviced by the elevator is "8". Therefore, it is now possible to instantly determine how many floors the car will travel. In addition, the digital car position indicator (7) and the digital floor number indicator (
By changing the display color of 7A) to a different color, it is possible to avoid making a mistake in distinguishing between the image displays (7) and (7A).

In addition, in the above embodiment, the digital floor number display (7A)
Although the above description has been made assuming that the display is displayed by lighting up with a lamp, it goes without saying that other devices such as a liquid crystal display may be used.

Further, in the above embodiments, the elevator display device is installed in an elevator hall, but it goes without saying that the present invention is also applicable to a display device installed in an elevator car.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, the present invention provides a digital car position indicator that displays the number of floors of a building in addition to a direction indicator that displays the ascending/descending direction of the elevator and a digital car position indicator that displays the elevator car position. Equipped with a floor number display, the digital car position display allows you to know the elevator car position, and at the same time, the digital floor number display allows you to know the number of floors in the building you are standing on. This has the effect of making the elevator more convenient to use because it can instantly determine how many floors the elevator will travel to.
