Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an elevator electric equipment control device capable of setting a control set amount of electric equipment such as an elevator basket lighting device, a voice alarm device, and an air conditioner (air conditioner).

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, for example, on the arrival floor of an elevator,
2. Description of the Related Art There is a voice synthesizer for notifying passengers of a traveling direction. This is because the voice data is stored in a storage device (memory), the central processing unit selects appropriate voice data from the stored data according to the traveling conditions of the elevator, and the voice reproduction means causes the passengers to be installed from the speaker attached to the elevator car. The voice alerts the arrival floor and the traveling direction, for example, "5th floor" or "I'm going up".

At this time, the volume output from the speaker is generally adjusted by a voice synthesizer. This voice synthesizer is installed in an elevator control panel, an elevator car, or an elevator hall.
It could only be done at the place where the voice synthesizer was installed.

Further, other electric components such as dimming control of lighting equipment in the elevator basket, volume adjustment of BGM (background music) of the elevator basket, adjustment of ventilation fans and air conditioners, volume adjustment of arrival notification device at each floor hall, etc. It was also necessary to adjust the equipment separately at each equipment installation site. Therefore, it took time to adjust each device and the efficiency was poor. For example, like the example above
To hear the voice of the voice synthesizer in the elevator basket,
The adjustment must be performed at the installation location of the device (for example, an elevator control panel installed in the upper part of the hoistway), and cannot be performed while checking the adjustment condition with one's own ear.

Further, the volume adjustment of the arrival notification device installed in each floor hall must be adjusted for each floor and each device, and it takes time to adjust. In order to eliminate such a problem, various proposals have been made for each device. For example, the volume of the voice synthesizer can be adjusted in the basket (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 1-116853), and the volume of the arrival notification unit on each floor can be centrally controlled (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2-1683). No. 169480) has been proposed.

[0006]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional technique, there is no change in adjusting each individual device, and each control switch and control volume must be provided.

Further, when there are a plurality of elevators in a building, the above-mentioned electrical equipment will be installed in each elevator. However, adjusting each electrical equipment requires no adjustment time. It will take time for the number of machines. Even if there are multiple elevators installed, there should be no problem in adjusting the volume and dimming if they are all in the same building, but they were adjusted for each machine and each electrical device. Then it is quite inefficient.

Further, since the adjustment is made for each car, an adjustment difference may occur between the cars, which may give passengers an uncomfortable feeling. Particularly, in the case of a group management elevator, if the volume and the light amount of the illumination differ depending on the elevator on which the passenger gets on, the difference becomes remarkable.

The present invention has been made in order to eliminate the above-mentioned problems, and it is possible to significantly reduce the adjustment time of each electric device, eliminate the adjustment difference between units, and improve the service to passengers. It is an object of the present invention to provide an elevator electric equipment control device capable of performing.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an overall configuration showing a first embodiment of the present invention. A basket position display device 1, a data setting device 2, an electric equipment centralized control device 3, a basket electric equipment 4,
The control panel electrical equipment 5, the hall electrical equipment 6, and the elevator control device 7 are provided.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a concrete configuration of FIG. The car position display device 1 is arranged in the car and displays either the current position of the car or the control set amount of the electrical equipment.

The data setting device 2 is arranged in the elevator car 8 as shown in FIG. 3, and has a humidity setting switch 21, a temperature setting switch 22 and a dimming setting switch 2.
3, a voice synthesis setting switch 24, a hall notification setting switch 25, and a setting amount switch 26. Of these, switches 21 to 25 are switches that can be switched to either the setting side or the operating side and the side that increases the setting amount. And the setting amount can be reduced.

The car electrical equipment 4 includes an in-car lighting equipment (not shown), a lighting control device 41, a voice synthesis output speaker 51, an air conditioner and an air conditioner control device 42, and the control panel electrical equipment 5 includes Includes a voice synthesizer 5, and the hall electrical equipment 6 further includes hall notification devices 61 to 6N and hall notification device speakers 61S to 61NS.

The electric equipment centralized control device 3 includes a central processing unit 31, a transmission input / output means 32, an input means 33, and a memory 34.
When the setting switches 21 to 25 of the data setting device 2 included in the beta basket 8 are set to the setting side, the control setting amount corresponding to the setting amount switch 26 can be displayed on the basket position display device 1. Also, the setting switches 21 to 2
When 5 is set to the operating side, the car position display device 1 displays the current position of the car by a signal from the elevator control device 7.

The elevator control unit 7 is a central processing unit 7.
1, a single unit transmission / input means 72, a memory 73, and a voice synthesizer 5. Hereinafter, the operation of the first embodiment configured as described above, particularly the control setting operation of the electrical equipment will be described.

First, the coordinator gets into the elevator car 8 and uses the data setting device 2 to set the switch of the electrical equipment to be adjusted to the "setting" side. At this time, the car position display device 1 displays how much the current set amount of the electrical equipment is. It should be noted that, while the setting adjustment of the electrical equipment is being performed, an adjuster is on board, and if the current electric equipment setting amount is displayed on the basket position display device, it does not matter if the basket position is not displayed.

Then, the set amount of the electrical equipment, for example, the temperature in the case of an air conditioner is set by switching the set amount switch 26 of the data setting device 2 to the "increase" or "decrease" side. By displaying the set amount that has been set on the basket position display device 1, it is possible to inform the coordinator of the current setting data.
Further, by setting the switches 21 to 25 of the data setting device 2 to the “operation” side, the setting is completed, and the position of the car is displayed on the car position display device 1 (return to normal operation). Further, in order to confirm the set amount, the electrical equipment for which the data has been set is operated.

Here, it is assumed that the volume of the speech synthesizer 5 is adjusted. As a precondition, the elevator car 8 is on the third floor, and the current sound volume level of the speech synthesizer 5 is "5".
Consider setting to "6". First, the data setting device 2
The voice synthesis switch 24 of is set to the "setting" side. This time,
The current volume level "5" is displayed on the car position display device 1 that was displaying "3rd floor". Here, since it is desired to set the volume level to "6", the volume level is raised by turning the setting amount switch 26 of the data setting device 2 to the "increase" side, and the set value "6" is displayed on the basket position display device 1. Is displayed. Here, when the voice synthesizing switch 24 is returned to the "operation" side, it is determined that the volume adjustment is completed, and the basket position display device 1
Will display "3rd floor". Further, as the setting confirmation, the voice synthesizing device 5 notifies arbitrary data (for example, "3rd floor" is notified). The coordinator will then be able to hear the volume and immediately determine if the settings have been made correctly.

Here, the processing flow of the central processing unit (hereinafter referred to as CPU 1) 31 of the electric equipment control device 3 shown in FIG. 4, the memory contents of the CPU 1 shown in FIG. 5 and the data setting device 2 shown in FIG. A detailed description of the present embodiment will be given using a set amount input signal waveform.

Data input from the data setting device 2 to the electrical equipment control device 3 via the input means 33 is stored in the memory 3
4 is stored in the data format as shown in FIG. 5A, that is, the lower 8 bits are the data setting signal,
The upper 8 bits are a signal indicating the control electrical equipment. The data shown in FIG. 5B is the car position data, and as shown in FIG. 3, is an area for storing the current car position data sent from the elevator controller 7. The data in this area is constantly updated when the elevator car 8 moves. Also in FIG.
The data shown in (c) is data indicating the current control set amount of each electric device. Here, a procedure for adjusting the volume of the voice synthesizer 5 as in the above-described example will be described using the processing flow of FIG. Now, when the voice synthesis switch 24 of the data input device 2 is turned to the "setting" side, the <8> th bit of the memory shown in FIG. 5A is set. As a result, the CPU 1 determines that the control device is the voice synthesizer 5 (process S1). Here, the data is set in the memory shown in FIG. 5D as a flag for setting the data. (Processing S2) The car position display device normally indicates the position of the elevator car 8, but since the control set amount of the electrical equipment is being changed, a process for displaying the control set amount of the target control device is performed. (Processing S3, S4). In this example, the current voice synthesizer volume data is read from the memory of FIG. 5C, and the data "5" is displayed on the car position display device 1. Here, if the set amount switch 26 of the data setting device 2 is operated, <0> or <1 in FIG.
Data is input to the> bit. Here, a method of inputting the set amount switch 26 will be briefly described with reference to FIG. In this example, the set amount switch 26 is a three-position switch, and if it is automatically returned to the intermediate position even if it is operated to the “increase” or “decrease” side, for example, the “increase” side is set twice and the “decrease” side is set. If the set amount switch 26 is turned on once, the input becomes pulsed as shown in FIG. 6, and the CPU 31 regards it as an input at the UP edge of the pulse, and the volume level becomes as shown in FIG. For example, if one wants to raise the volume level by one, the set amount switch 26 should be turned on once to the "increase" side. At this time, the signal of the set amount “increase” is shown in FIG.
The <0> bit shown in (a) is input, and the CPU 31 thereby increments the level of the voice synthesizer volume data shown in FIG. 5 (c) by 1 to be "6" (process S6).
Then, the CPU 31 outputs the set contents via the transmission input / output unit 32, and the central processing unit 71 (hereinafter referred to as the CPU 2) receiving the data outputs the new setting data to the voice synthesizer 5. Use to change the volume. Also,
The CPU 31 outputs and displays the data set as shown in step S8 on the basket position display device 1, and the coordinator can confirm that the volume data level has been increased by one.

The setting is completed in this way, and the data setting device 2
When the voice synthesis switch 24 of the
U31 performs processing S9. If the data has been changed, the process proceeds to step S10, and otherwise the process S12 is performed. Process S10
Then, the setting amount confirmation operation is performed when the setting is completed. In the example, since the volume data of the voice synthesizing device 5 is changed, the guidance notification is performed in this process immediately after the setting is completed. This allows the coordinator to check the setting data. Then, since the adjustment of the electrical equipment has been completed, the basket position display device 1 is caused to display the basket position (step S1).
2).

Therefore, with the elevator electric equipment control device having the above-mentioned configuration, an inexpensive data setting device can be provided by displaying the control amount of the electric equipment only during control.

Further, since the setting and the contents can be confirmed immediately after the control amount is set, the adjustment time can be shortened, and the control amount is displayed on the car position display device 1 so that the setting error is easy to see. It is also possible to prevent. In particular, it becomes possible for the owner or manager of the building to perform control.

In the first embodiment, the description has been given centering on the voice synthesizer, but other electrical equipment such as lighting dimming / color control, air conditioner, BGM device, hall / car arrival notification device, etc. Can be controlled similarly.
