Detailed Description
Several embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following description, common reference numerals among the reference numerals are used when the description is made without distinguishing the same elements, and reference numerals are used when the description is made with distinguishing the same elements.
First embodiment
Fig. 1 is a schematic view of the inside of a car according to a first embodiment.
When viewed from the inside of the elevator car, a car operating panel 10 is provided on at least one of the left and right sides of the door 5. In the present embodiment, a car operating panel 10L is provided on the left side of the door 5, and a car operating panel 10R is provided on the right side of the door 5.
Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of each of the car operating panels 10L and 10R. According to the example shown in fig. 2, the car operating panels 10L and 10R are different in the presence or absence of the monitor 30, but the car operating panels 10L and 10R may have the monitor 30 or may not have the monitor 30, respectively. In the following description, the car-operation panel 10R is mainly taken as an example, but the description of the car-operation panel 10R can also be applied to the car-operation panel 10L.
The car operation panel 10R has a plurality of destination layer buttons 20 arranged in the up-down direction, each of which is in contact with the other; and a plurality of non-contact sensors 40 arranged in the up-down direction and corresponding to the plurality of destination layer buttons 20, respectively. That is, the destination layer button 20 and the noncontact sensor 40 are provided for each floor that can be designated as a destination layer. In the present embodiment, since five layers can be designated as the target layers, the target layer buttons 20a to 20e and the noncontact sensors 40a to 40e are provided. The car operation panel 10R includes: a contact door closing button 51 that is pressed for the operation of closing the door 5; and a contact door opening button 52 that is pressed for an operation of opening the door 5. The door close button 51 and the door open button 52 may be provided with a non-contact sensor on the car operation panel 10R instead of or in addition to the button, but a non-contact sensor may be provided instead of or in addition to a contact button for at least the door open button 52.
Each of the noncontact sensors 40 functions as a destination layer button 20 corresponding to the noncontact sensor 40, and when any of the noncontact sensors 40 detects, the layer corresponding to the noncontact sensor 40 is registered as the destination layer, and each of the noncontact sensors 40 is disposed closer to the door 5 (left) than the destination layer button 20 corresponding to the noncontact sensor 40. The same applies to the car operating panel 10L. That is, in the car operation panel 10L, the noncontact sensor 40 is disposed on the right side of the destination floor button 20.
In the present embodiment, with the objective of objective layer infectious disease countermeasures or sanitary maintenance, the non-contact sensor 40 is employed for designation of the destination layer, but the non-contact sensor 40 is prepared in addition to the destination layer button 20. Thus, even if the detection accuracy of any one of the noncontact sensors 40 is lowered (or even if any one of the noncontact sensors 40 fails), the passenger can specify the destination using the destination button 20.
The non-contact sensor 40 is disposed closer to the door 5 than the destination layer button 20 corresponding to the non-contact sensor 40. That is, the noncontact sensor 40 is closer to the door 5 than the destination layer button 20. Therefore, when a passenger gets on the car and extends his/her hand toward the car operation panel 10R for specifying the destination floor, the non-contact sensor 40 detects that the passenger is covered by an object (here, his/her hand) before the hand reaches the destination floor button 20. The detection of an object by the non-contact sensor 40 corresponds to a case where a layer corresponding to the non-contact sensor 40 is designated as a target layer. Therefore, the passenger can specify the destination floor in such a manner as not to come into contact with the destination floor button 20 (specifically, for example, if a hand is extended toward the destination floor button 20 in order to touch the destination floor button 20, the destination floor button 20 does not have to be touched). As a result, it is possible to contribute to the purpose of countermeasure against infectious diseases and sanitary maintenance, and to improve the operability of the car operating panel 10R provided with the noncontact sensor 40.
Further, in the car operation panel 10L, the noncontact sensor 40 is also disposed closer to the door 5 than the destination floor button 20, and therefore, it can be expected that the passenger can improve operability of designating the destination floor before touching the destination floor button 20, regardless of which of the car operation panels 10R and 10L the passenger protrudes the hand.
In the case where there are a plurality of layers capable of being designated as the destination layer, the destination layer button rows are normally two or more rows arranged in the left-right direction, but in the present embodiment, the car operating panel 10R is expanded in the up-down direction, and the destination layer button 20 rows and the noncontact sensor 40 rows are maintained in one row. Thus, even when a plurality of floors can be designated as a destination floor in one car for installation in a high building or other reasons, it is expected to maintain the above-described improvement in operability.
The present embodiment will be described in detail below.
The non-contact sensor 40 may be a proximity sensor such as an infrared sensor, an induction sensor, an electrostatic capacitance sensor, an ultrasonic sensor, or a magnetic sensor. For example, if a sensor of a type having a narrow directivity is used as the non-contact sensor 40, it is expected that the need to increase the interval between the sensors 40 can be avoided.
In the present embodiment, the noncontact sensor 40 irradiates light and detects reflected light from an object that receives the light, thereby detecting the object.
Fig. 3 is a schematic configuration diagram of a system including an operating device including a car operating panel 10R.
The operating device 300 includes at least a car operating panel 10R. The operation device 300 may further include a non-contact sensor controller 60, a destination floor display controller 70, a monitor controller 80 connected to the monitor 30 and controlling the display on the monitor 30, and an in-car operation control device 90. An elevator control device 100 that controls the lifting of the car is connected to the operation device 300. The elevator may include the car itself, a lifting mechanism of the car, and the like, in addition to the operation device 300 and the elevator control device 100.
The non-contact sensor controller 60 is electrically connected to each non-contact sensor 40. For example, the signal from each of the non-contact sensors 40 is equal to or higher than a predetermined level when the non-contact sensor 40 detects an object. The non-contact sensor controller 60 determines that the signal is the non-contact sensor 40 of a predetermined level or more, and outputs a floor number (an example of positional information that may be the non-contact sensor 40) corresponding to the non-contact sensor 40 to the in-car operation control device 90.
The destination layer display controller 70 is electrically connected to the destination layer buttons 20. When the destination floor button 20 is touched (e.g., pressed), the destination floor display controller 70 lights up the destination floor button 20 and outputs the floor number of the destination floor button 20 to the in-car operation control device 90.
The monitor controller 80 is electrically connected to the monitor 30, and displays information (for example, destination layer, advertisement, etc.) from the in-car operation control device 90 on the monitor 30.
When a floor number is input (i.e., when a destination floor is designated), the in-car operation control device 90 outputs the floor number to the monitor controller 80 and the elevator control device 100. The elevator control device 100 registers the entered floor number as a destination floor and controls the lifting (operation) of the car.
When the non-contact sensor controller 60 is used as the input side of the floor number, the in-car operation control device 90 outputs the floor number to the destination floor display controller 70. The destination floor display controller 70 receives an input of a floor number from the in-car operation control device 90, and causes the destination floor button 20 to be lit when the destination floor button 20 corresponding to the floor number is not lit. Thus, for example, when the non-contact sensor 40e corresponding to the non-lighted target layer button 20e (see fig. 4A) detects an object (typically, a human hand or finger), the target layer button 20e is lighted (see fig. 4B).
Second embodiment
The second embodiment will be described. In this case, mainly the differences from the first embodiment will be described, and the description of the common points with the first embodiment will be omitted or simplified.
Fig. 5 is a schematic view of a car operating panel of the second embodiment.
The car operation panel 10RR on the right side of the door includes, for each of the plurality of non-contact sensors 40, an LED45 (an example of a light emitting portion) arranged closer to the door 5 than the non-contact sensor 40.
For each of the non-contact sensors 40, leds 45 are provided to support object detection by the non-contact sensor 40. That is, at least a part of the light emitted from the LED45, which is reflected from the object, can be received by the non-contact sensor 40 corresponding to the LED 45. In the present embodiment, since the LED45 is disposed closer to the door 5 than the non-contact sensor 40, when the passenger extends his or her hand toward the car operation panel 10RR and the hand approaches the non-contact sensor 40, the light from the LED45 is reflected by the hand and the reflected light is detected by the non-contact sensor 40, and thus the non-contact sensor 40 can be expected to detect an object promptly.
The arrangement of the LED45 (in the case where the LED45 is arranged at a position closer to the door than the non-contact sensor 40) is not limited to the right car operating panel 10RR, but may be applied to a left car operating panel, not shown.
Fig. 6 is a schematic configuration diagram of a system including an operating device including a car operating panel 10 RR.
The operation device 300A further includes an LED display controller 65.
The LED display controller 65 controls the lighting (e.g., color) of the LED45 based on an instruction from the in-car operation control device 90A. For example, the following control may be adopted. That is, the LED display controller 65 turns on the LED45 beside (adjacent to the left in the example of fig. 6) the noncontact sensor 40 corresponding to the layer not designated as the target layer (for example, the layer corresponding to the unlit target layer button 20) in the first color (for example, a color contributing to the object detection by the noncontact sensor 40). When the non-contact sensor 40 detects an object (for example, when a layer corresponding to the non-contact sensor 40 is registered as a destination layer), the LED display controller 65 may light up the LED45 corresponding to the non-contact sensor 40 in a second color different from the first color based on an instruction from the in-car operation control device 90A. Thus, the passenger can recognize whether or not the layer corresponding to the LED45 is designated as the destination layer (for example, whether or not the noncontact sensor 40 corresponding to the LED45 detects the hand) based on the lighting color of the LED 45.
Although the embodiments have been described above, they are examples for illustrating the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is not intended to be limited to only these embodiments. The invention can also be implemented in other various embodiments.
