Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an object detector for reliably detecting an object by switching a plurality of detection areas.SOLUTION: An automatic door sensor 100 forms floor surface detection areas R1-R16 on a prescribed floor surface F100 where the object such as a person passes. The automatic door sensor 100 also forms space detection areas l1-l12 in a space A100 above the floor surface F100. Only cross sectional detection areas r1-r12 on prescribed cross sections of the space detection areas l1-l12 are indicated in Figure 1. When it is determined that the object such as a human body exists in the space detection areas l1-l12 (the cross sectional detection areas r1-r12) in a closed state of door panels 55a, 55b, the automatic door sensor 100 transmits door opening information to perform an operation to open the door panels 55a, 55b to a driving device. In an opened state of the door panels 55a, 55b, the object is detected in the floor surface detection areas R1-R12 and the space detection areas l1-l12.

Description

本発明は、検知光により物体を検出する物体検出装置に関し、特に、複数の検知領域を切り換えて物体を確実に検知するものに関する。   The present invention relates to an object detection apparatus that detects an object using detection light, and more particularly to an apparatus that reliably detects an object by switching a plurality of detection areas.

従来の物体検出装置である自動ドア開閉用起動センサ200について図9を用いて説明する。自動ドア開閉用起動センサ200は、基本的な構成として、赤外線発光部210と赤外線受光部220とを備え、図示しない自動ドアの無目もしくは天井に設置される。通常、赤外線発光部210と赤外線受光部220は、所定の周波数で同期的に制御される。   An automatic door opening / closing start sensor 200, which is a conventional object detection device, will be described with reference to FIG. The automatic door opening / closing start sensor 200 includes, as a basic configuration, an infrared light emitting unit 210 and an infrared light receiving unit 220, and is installed on an unshown automatic door or ceiling. Usually, the infrared light emitting unit 210 and the infrared light receiving unit 220 are controlled synchronously at a predetermined frequency.

赤外線発光部210は、図示しない例えば拡散レンズを介して自動ドア近傍の床面Fに赤外線をスポット光として照射する。通常、スポット光はm列×n行のマトリクス配列として照射される。作図の都合上、その1列に含まれる例えば8個のスポット光S1〜S8のみを示す。   The infrared light emitting unit 210 irradiates the floor surface F near the automatic door as spot light through a diffusion lens (not shown), for example. Usually, the spot light is irradiated as a matrix arrangement of m columns × n rows. For convenience of drawing, for example, only eight spot lights S1 to S8 included in one column are shown.

赤外線受光部220は、床面Fもしくは監視領域内に存在する人(物体)によって反射された赤外線を図示しない集光レンズを介して受光し、その受光量に比例した信号を図示しないドアコントローラに出力する。ドアコントローラは、常時、その出力信号の変動を監視し、図示しないドアエンジンを制御して自動ドアを開閉する(特許文献1)。   The infrared light receiving unit 220 receives infrared light reflected by a person (object) existing on the floor surface F or the monitoring area through a condensing lens (not shown) and sends a signal proportional to the received light amount to a door controller (not shown). Output. The door controller constantly monitors fluctuations in its output signal and controls a door engine (not shown) to open and close the automatic door (Patent Document 1).

特開2007−93510号公報JP 2007-93510 A

前述の自動ドア開閉用起動センサ200には、以下に示すような改善すべき点がある。自動ドア開閉用起動センサ200は、床面Fに赤外線をスポット光として投光し、床面Fもしくは監視領域内に存在する人(物体)によって反射された赤外線を赤外線受光部220にて受光する。床面Fにおける赤外線の反射の状態は、床面Fの状態によって左右される。例えば、床面Fが乾いた状態と、水等が存在し、濡れている状態とでは、赤外線の反射状態が大きく異なる。あるときには、自動ドアの扉が開かない、あるときには、勝手に開くといった、誤動作を生じやすい、という改善すべき点がある。   The automatic door opening / closing start sensor 200 has the following points to be improved. The automatic door opening / closing start sensor 200 projects infrared rays onto the floor surface F as spot light, and receives infrared rays reflected by a person (object) existing in the floor surface F or a monitoring area by the infrared light receiving unit 220. . The state of infrared reflection on the floor surface F depends on the state of the floor surface F. For example, the reflection state of infrared rays is greatly different between a state where the floor surface F is dry and a state where water or the like is present and is wet. There is a point that should be improved that malfunctions are likely to occur, such as when the door of the automatic door does not open in some cases, and in some cases it opens without permission.

そこで、本発明は、複数の検知領域を切り換えて物体を確実に検知する物体検出装置の提供を目的とする。   SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide an object detection device that detects an object reliably by switching a plurality of detection areas.

本発明における課題を解決するための手段及び発明の効果を以下に示す。   Means for solving the problems in the present invention and the effects of the invention will be described below.

本発明に係る物体検出装置は、所定の床面上の空間における物体の存在を検知し、扉の開閉を制御するための物体検知装置であって、前記床面に形成される第1の検知領域に対して検知光を投光する投光手段、前記投光手段が前記第1の検知領域に対して投光した前記検知光について、前記第1の検知領域からの第1の反射光を受光する第1の受光手段、前記投光手段が前記第1の検知領域に対して投光した前記検知光について、前記空間に形成される第2の検知領域からの第2の反射光を受光する第2の受光手段、前記第1の受光手段又は前記第2の受光手段のそれぞれにおける前記第1の反射光又は前記第2の反射光の受光量の変化から、前記第1の検知領域又は前記第2の検知領域に物体が存在すると判断すると、前記扉を開状態とする開状態情報を生成する扉開閉制御手段、前記扉が閉状態であるときに、前記第2の受光手段に前記第2の反射光を受光させ、前記第2の検知領域に物体が存在するとの判断に基づき前記第1の受光手段に前記第1の反射光を受光させる受光制御手段、を有する。   An object detection device according to the present invention is an object detection device for detecting the presence of an object in a space on a predetermined floor surface and controlling the opening and closing of a door, the first detection formed on the floor surface A light projecting means for projecting detection light to the area, and a first reflected light from the first detection area for the detection light projected by the light projecting means to the first detection area; A first light receiving means for receiving light, and a second reflected light from a second detection area formed in the space is received for the detection light projected by the light projecting means to the first detection area. From the change in the amount of received light of the first reflected light or the second reflected light in each of the second light receiving means, the first light receiving means, or the second light receiving means, the first detection region or When it is determined that an object is present in the second detection area, the door is opened. A door opening / closing control means for generating open state information, wherein when the door is in a closed state, the second light receiving means receives the second reflected light, and an object is present in the second detection region; And a light receiving control means for causing the first light receiving means to receive the first reflected light based on the determination.

これにより、扉閉状態においては、床面における第1の検知領域よりも、空間における第2の検知領域での物体の検知を優先して扉を開閉することができる。よって、床面の状態に影響されずに、扉の閉状態から開状態への開動作を行うことができる。また、扉の開状態においては、床面における第1の検知領域での検知を行うので、床面に近い領域での物体の検知に基づき扉の開閉動作を行うことができる。   Thereby, in the door closed state, it is possible to open and close the door in preference to the detection of the object in the second detection area in the space rather than the first detection area in the floor surface. Thus, the door can be opened from the closed state to the open state without being affected by the state of the floor surface. Further, since the detection is performed in the first detection area on the floor surface in the open state of the door, the door can be opened and closed based on the detection of the object in the area close to the floor surface.

本発明に係る物体検出装置では、前記受光制御装置は、前記第2の検知領域に物体が存在するとの判断に基づき、さらに、前記第2の受光手段に前記第2の反射光を受光させること、を特徴とする。   In the object detection device according to the present invention, the light reception control device further causes the second light receiving means to receive the second reflected light based on the determination that an object exists in the second detection region. It is characterized by.

これにより、扉の開状態の後は、床面上の第1の検知領域における検知と、空間の第2の検知領域における検知とを併せて行うことができる。よって、床面の状態に影響されることなく、また、床面近くの物体を見落とすことなく、確実に物体を検出することができる。   Thereby, after the door is opened, detection in the first detection region on the floor and detection in the second detection region of the space can be performed together. Therefore, the object can be reliably detected without being affected by the state of the floor surface and without overlooking the object near the floor surface.

本発明に係る物体検出装置では、前記投光手段及び前記第1の受光手段を複数有し、前記第2の受光手段は、一の前記投光手段に対応する前記第1の受光手段とは異なる前記第1の受光手段であること、を特徴とする。   The object detection apparatus according to the present invention includes a plurality of the light projecting means and the first light receiving means, and the second light receiving means is the first light receiving means corresponding to the one light projecting means. The first light receiving unit is different from the first light receiving unit.

これにより、床面に複数の第1の検知領域を形成すると共に、空間に複数の第2の検知領域を形成することができる。よって、広い範囲での物体の検知を行うことができる。   Thereby, a plurality of first detection areas can be formed on the floor surface, and a plurality of second detection areas can be formed in the space. Therefore, it is possible to detect an object in a wide range.

本発明に係る物体検出装置では、前記投光手段及び前記第1の受光手段は、それぞれマトリックス形状に配置されていること、を特徴とする。   The object detection apparatus according to the present invention is characterized in that the light projecting means and the first light receiving means are each arranged in a matrix shape.

これにより、床面近くの第1の検知領域と空間の第2の検知領域とを有する物体検出装置を簡易な構成で形成することができる。   Thereby, the object detection apparatus having the first detection area near the floor and the second detection area in the space can be formed with a simple configuration.

本発明に係る物体検出装置では、前記マトリックス形状に配置された前記投光手段が前記床面に形成する投光領域と、前記マトリックス形状に配置された前記第1の受光手段が前記床面に形成する受光領域とは、所定の方向にずれて形成されており、前記投光領域と前記受光領域との交差領域によって前記検知領域を形成すること、を特徴とする。   In the object detection apparatus according to the present invention, the light projecting area formed on the floor surface by the light projecting means arranged in the matrix shape, and the first light receiving means arranged in the matrix shape on the floor surface. The light receiving region to be formed is formed by shifting in a predetermined direction, and the detection region is formed by an intersection region between the light projecting region and the light receiving region.

これにより、床面近くの第1の検知領域と空間の第2の検知領域とを有する物体検出装置を簡易な構成で形成することができる。   Thereby, the object detection apparatus having the first detection area near the floor and the second detection area in the space can be formed with a simple configuration.

本発明に係る物体検出装置では、前記投光手段及び前記受光手段の相対的位置関係を調整することができる。これにより、所望の位置に、所望の大きさの第1の検知領域、第2の検知領域を形成することができる。   In the object detection apparatus according to the present invention, the relative positional relationship between the light projecting unit and the light receiving unit can be adjusted. Thereby, the 1st detection area | region and 2nd detection area | region of a desired magnitude | size can be formed in a desired position.

The automatic door system 50 includes an automatic door sensor 100, a frame 51, fixed walls 53a and 53b, door panels 55a and 55b, and a drive device (not shown). The automatic door system 50 is a so-called double door automatic door system in which the door panels 55a and 55b are opened and closed to the left and right.

フレーム51は、固定壁53a、53bの間に設置される。ドアパネル55a、55bは、固定壁53a、53b間をフレーム51の無目に沿って左右に開閉する。フレーム51の内部には、ドアパネル55a、55bを駆動するための駆動装置が内蔵されている。   The frame 51 is installed between the fixed walls 53a and 53b. The door panels 55a and 55b open and close between the fixed walls 53a and 53b to the left and right along the invisible lines of the frame 51. Inside the frame 51, a driving device for driving the door panels 55a and 55b is incorporated.

自動ドアセンサ100は、フレーム51の無目に取り付けられる。   The automatic door sensor 100 is attached to the frame 51 invisible.

自動ドアセンサ100は、人等の物体が通過する所定の床面F100上に床面検知領域R1〜R16を形成する。また、自動ドアセンサ100は、床面F100上の空間A100に空間検知領域l1〜l12(図示せず)を形成する。なお、図1においては、空間検知領域l1〜l12の所定の断面における断面検知領域r1〜r12のみを示している。床面検知領域R1〜R16、空間検知領域l1〜l12については後述する。   The automatic door sensor 100 forms floor surface detection areas R1 to R16 on a predetermined floor surface F100 through which an object such as a person passes. Further, the automatic door sensor 100 forms space detection regions 11 to 112 (not shown) in the space A100 on the floor surface F100. In FIG. 1, only the cross-section detection areas r1 to r12 in a predetermined cross section of the space detection areas l1 to l12 are shown. The floor detection areas R1 to R16 and the space detection areas l1 to l12 will be described later.

自動ドアセンサ100は、ドアパネル55a、55bが閉状態において、空間検知領域l1〜l12(断面検知領域r1〜r12)に人体等の物体が存在すると判断すると、ドアパネル55a、55bの開動作を行うための扉開情報を駆動装置に送信する。また、ドアパネル55a、55bが開状態においては、床面検知領域R1〜R16及び空間検知領域l1〜l12での、物体の検知を行う。   When the automatic door sensor 100 determines that an object such as a human body exists in the space detection areas l1 to l12 (cross-section detection areas r1 to r12) when the door panels 55a and 55b are closed, the automatic door sensor 100 opens the door panels 55a and 55b. The door opening information is transmitted to the driving device. Further, when the door panels 55a and 55b are in the open state, the objects are detected in the floor surface detection areas R1 to R16 and the space detection areas l1 to l12.

Indicates that the detection light projected by the light projecting element 111-16 passes through the light projecting region L111-16. The reflected light received by the light receiving element 121-1 of the light receiving unit 120 is received by the light receiving area L121-1, the reflected light received by the light receiving element 121-2 is received by the light receiving area L121-2,... The reflected light received by 16 passes through the light receiving region L121-16.

1.床面検知領域R100
床面F100には、投光素子111−1〜111−16及び受光素子121−1〜121−16によって床面検知領域R1〜R16が形成される。床面検知領域R1〜R16について図4を用いて説明する。図4は、図3における床面F100の状態を示している。
1. Floor detection area R100
Floor surface detection regions R1 to R16 are formed on the floor surface F100 by the light projecting elements 111-1 to 111-16 and the light receiving elements 121-1 to 121-16. The floor detection areas R1 to R16 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 4 shows a state of the floor surface F100 in FIG.

床面F100には、16個の床面投光領域R111−1〜R111−16、及び、16個の床面受光領域R121−1〜R121−16が形成される。   On the floor surface F100, 16 floor surface light projecting regions R111-1 to R111-16 and 16 floor surface light receiving regions R121-1 to R121-16 are formed.

各床面投光領域R111−1〜R111−16は、レンズ113を介して各投光素子111−1〜111−16が発光した赤外線を検知光として集光することによって形成される。これによって、各投光素子111−1〜111−16が発光した赤外線からなる検知光はスポット光として集光され、各床面投光領域R111−1〜R111−16は、床面F100上において、所定の円形形状となる。   Each floor light projection region R111-1 to R111-16 is formed by condensing infrared rays emitted from the light projecting elements 111-1 to 111-16 as detection light via the lens 113. As a result, the detection light composed of infrared rays emitted from the light projecting elements 111-1 to 111-16 is collected as spot light, and the floor surface light projecting regions R111-1 to R111-16 are located on the floor surface F100. It becomes a predetermined circular shape.

各床面受光領域R121−1〜R121−16は、各受光素子121−1〜121−16によって検知光の反射光を集光するようにレンズ123を調整することによって形成される。これによって、各受光素子121−1〜121−16は、床面F100上において、所定の円形形状となる床面受光領域R121−1〜R121−16から反射光を受光する。   Each of the floor surface light receiving regions R121-1 to R121-16 is formed by adjusting the lens 123 so that the reflected light of the detection light is collected by each of the light receiving elements 121-1 to 121-16. Accordingly, each of the light receiving elements 121-1 to 121-16 receives reflected light from the floor surface light receiving regions R121-1 to R121-16 having a predetermined circular shape on the floor surface F100.

一の投光素子111−1と一の受光素子121−1とは、一対一で対応する。また、対応する投光素子111−1及び受光素子121−1は、同一領域に床面投光領域R111−1、床面受光領域R121−1を形成するのではなく、互いに矢印a3方向へずらして床面投光領域R111−1、床面受光領域R121−1を形成する。つまり、床面投光領域R111−1と床面受光領域R121−1との交差領域によって床面検知領域R1が形成される。他の床面投光領域R111−2〜R111−16、他の床面受光領域R121−2〜R121−16についても同様である。   There is a one-to-one correspondence between one light projecting element 111-1 and one light receiving element 121-1. Further, the corresponding light projecting element 111-1 and light receiving element 121-1 do not form the floor light projecting area R111-1 and the floor light receiving area R121-1 in the same area, but are shifted in the direction of the arrow a3. The floor surface light projecting region R111-1 and the floor surface light receiving region R121-1 are formed. That is, the floor surface detection region R1 is formed by the intersection region between the floor surface light projection region R111-1 and the floor surface light reception region R121-1. The same applies to the other floor surface light projecting regions R111-2 to R111-16 and the other floor surface light receiving regions R121-2 to R121-16.

2.空間検知領域l1〜l12
図3に示すように、例えば、投光領域L111−13は、床面F100において受光領域L121−13との交差領域である床面検知領域R13を形成する以外に、受光領域L121−14と空間A100において交差領域l10を形成する。投光領域L111−14は受光領域L121−15と交差領域l11を、投光領域L111−15は受光領域L121−16と交差領域l12を、それぞれ形成する。投光領域L111−1〜L111−3、投光領域L111−5〜L111−7、投光領域L111−9〜L111−11についても、同様である。
2. Spatial detection areas l1 to l12
As shown in FIG. 3, for example, the light projecting region L111-13 forms a space with the light receiving region L121-14 in addition to forming a floor surface detection region R13 that is an intersecting region with the light receiving region L121-13 on the floor surface F100. An intersection region l10 is formed at A100. The light projecting region L111-14 forms a light receiving region L121-15 and a crossing region l11, and the light projecting region L111-15 forms a light receiving region L121-16 and a crossing region l12. The same applies to the light projection areas L111-1 to L111-3, the light projection areas L111-5 to L111-7, and the light projection areas L111-9 to L111-11.

図5に、図3における空間A100における所定の断面f100の状態を示す。断面f100には、12個の断面投光領域r111−1〜r111−3、r111−5〜r111−7、r111−9〜r111−11、r111−13〜r111−15、及び、12個の断面受光領域12r121−2〜r121−4、r121−6〜r121−8、r121−10〜r121−12、r121−14〜r121−16が形成される。   FIG. 5 shows a state of a predetermined cross section f100 in the space A100 in FIG. The cross-section f100 includes 12 cross-section light emitting areas r111-1 to r111-3, r111-5 to r111-7, r111-9 to r111-11, r111-13 to r111-15, and 12 cross sections. The light receiving regions 12r121-2 to r121-4, r121-6 to r121-8, r121-10 to r121-12, and r121-14 to r121-16 are formed.

断面投光領域r111−1と断面受光領域r121−2との交差領域によって断面検知領域r1が形成される。また、断面投光領域r111−2と断面受光領域r121−3との交差領域によって断面検知領域r2が形成される。その他の断面検知領域r3〜r12についても同様である。   A cross-section detection region r1 is formed by an intersection region between the cross-section projection region r111-1 and the cross-section light reception region r121-2. In addition, a cross-section detection region r2 is formed by an intersection region between the cross-section projection region r111-2 and the cross-section light reception region r121-3. The same applies to the other cross-section detection regions r3 to r12.

図6に図3における正面図を示す。図6に示すように、投光領域L111−13と受光領域L121−14とは、空間Aに立体的な交差領域である空間検知領域l10を形成する。また、投光領域L111−14と受光領域L121−15とは空間検知領域l11を、投光領域L111−15と受光領域L121−16とは空間検知領域l12を、それぞれ形成する。ここで、図5に示す断面検知領域r10、r11、r12は、それぞれ図6に示す空間検知領域l10、l11、l12の一断面として現れる。   FIG. 6 shows a front view of FIG. As shown in FIG. 6, the light projecting region L111-13 and the light receiving region L121-14 form a space detection region l10 that is a three-dimensional intersection region in the space A. Further, the light projecting region L111-14 and the light receiving region L121-15 form a space detection region l11, and the light projecting region L111-15 and the light receiving region L121-16 form a space detection region l12. Here, the cross-section detection regions r10, r11, and r12 shown in FIG. 5 appear as one cross-section of the space detection regions l10, l11, and l12 shown in FIG.

さらに、投光領域L111−1と受光領域L121−2とは空間検知領域l1を、投光領域L111−2と受光領域L121−3とは空間検知領域l2を、投光領域L111−3と受光領域L121−4とは空間検知領域l3を、投光領域L111−5と受光領域L121−6とは空間検知領域l4を、投光領域L111−6と受光領域L121−7とは空間検知領域l5を、投光領域L111−7と受光領域L121−8とは空間検知領域l6を、投光領域L111−9と受光領域L121−10とは空間検知領域l7を、投光領域L111−10と受光領域L121−11とは空間検知領域l8を、投光領域L111−11と受光領域L121−12とは空間検知領域l9を、それぞれ形成する。なお、図3、図6には、空間検知領域l1〜l9を図示していない。   Further, the light projection area L111-1 and the light reception area L121-2 are the space detection area l1, the light projection area L111-2 and the light reception area L121-3 are the space detection area l2, and the light projection area L111-3 and the light reception area. The area L121-4 is the space detection area l3, the light projection area L111-5 and the light reception area L121-6 is the space detection area l4, and the light projection area L111-6 and the light reception area L121-7 are the space detection area l5. The light projection area L111-7 and the light reception area L121-8 are the space detection area 16, the light projection area L111-9 and the light reception area L121-10 are the space detection area 17 and the light projection area L111-10 and the light reception area L111-10. The region L121-11 forms a space detection region l8, and the light projection region L111-11 and the light reception region L121-12 form a space detection region l9, respectively. 3 and 6 do not show the space detection regions l1 to l9.

なお、図3から分かるように、空間Aにおいては、投光領域L111−1〜L111−16と受光領域L121−1〜L121−16との交差領域は、空間検知領域l1〜l12以外にも形成されるが、自動ドアセンサ100では、空間Aにおいて最も下層に形成される交差領域を空間検知領域l1〜l12としている。   As can be seen from FIG. 3, in the space A, the intersecting regions of the light projecting regions L111-1 to L111-16 and the light receiving regions L121-1 to L121-16 are formed in addition to the space detecting regions l1 to l12. However, in the automatic door sensor 100, the intersection area formed in the lowermost layer in the space A is set as the space detection areas l1 to l12.

第3 制御回路130の動作
制御回路130の動作について図7に示すフローチャートを用いて説明する。制御回路130は、ドアパネル55a、55bが閉状態であるか否かを判断する(S701)。制御回路130は、ドアパネル55a、55bが閉状態であると判断すると、空間検知対応テーブルから、空間検知領域を形成する投光素子と受光素子の組み合わせを取得する(S703)。
Operation of Third Control Circuit 130 The operation of the control circuit 130 will be described using the flowchart shown in FIG. The control circuit 130 determines whether or not the door panels 55a and 55b are closed (S701). When the control circuit 130 determines that the door panels 55a and 55b are in the closed state, the control circuit 130 acquires a combination of a light projecting element and a light receiving element that form a space detection area from the space detection correspondence table (S703).

ここで、空間検知対応テーブルについて図8を用いて説明する。空間検知対応テーブルは、空間検知領域を形成する投光領域と受光領域との対応関係を示すテーブルである。空間検知対応テーブルは、投光素子列及び受光素子列を有している。投光素子列には、空間検知領域を形成する投光領域を生成する投光素子が記述される。受光素子列には、投光素子列に記述された投光素子ともに空間検知領域を形成する受光領域を形成する受光素子が記述される。   Here, the space detection correspondence table will be described with reference to FIG. The space detection correspondence table is a table showing a correspondence relationship between the light projecting area and the light receiving area forming the space detection area. The space detection correspondence table has a light projecting element array and a light receiving element array. In the light projecting element row, a light projecting element that generates a light projecting area that forms a space detection area is described. The light receiving element row describes a light receiving element that forms a light receiving region that forms a spatial detection region together with the light projecting elements described in the light projecting element row.

制御回路130は、スッテプS703で取得した投光素子を発光させる(S705)。制御回路130は、ステップS703で取得した投光素子に対応する受光素子から受光信号を取得する(S707)。   The control circuit 130 causes the light emitting element acquired in step S703 to emit light (S705). The control circuit 130 acquires a light reception signal from the light receiving element corresponding to the light projecting element acquired in step S703 (S707).

制御回路130は、取得した受光信号に基づき物体を検知していないと判断すると(S709)、ステップS705、S707の処理を繰り返す。これにより、ドアパネル55a、55bが閉状態にある場合には、空間検知領域での物体の検知が行われる。   When the control circuit 130 determines that an object is not detected based on the acquired light reception signal (S709), it repeats the processes of steps S705 and S707. Thereby, when the door panels 55a and 55b are in the closed state, the object is detected in the space detection area.

制御回路130は、ステップS707において、取得した受光信号に基づき物体を検知したと判断すると(S709)、ドアパネル55a、55bを開状態とする扉開情報を生成し、駆動装置へ送信する(711)。   If the control circuit 130 determines in step S707 that an object has been detected based on the received light reception signal (S709), it generates door opening information for opening the door panels 55a and 55b, and transmits the door opening information to the driving device (711). .

制御回路130は、一の投光素子を発光させる(S713)。制御回路130は、発光させた投光素子に対して床面検知領域を形成する受光素子から受光信号を取得する(S715)。制御回路130は、取得した受光信号に基づき、床面検知領域において物体を検知したと判断すると(S717)、順次、ステップS713〜S717の処理を実行する。   The control circuit 130 causes one light projecting element to emit light (S713). The control circuit 130 acquires a light reception signal from the light receiving element that forms the floor surface detection region for the emitted light projecting element (S715). When the control circuit 130 determines that an object has been detected in the floor surface detection area based on the acquired light reception signal (S717), the control circuit 130 sequentially executes the processes of steps S713 to S717.

これにより、物体が閉状態でない場合には、床面検知領域での物体の検知が行われる。   Thereby, when the object is not in the closed state, the object is detected in the floor detection area.

制御回路130は、取得した受光信号に基づき、床面検知領域において物体を検知していないと判断すると(S717)、床面検知領域における投光素子、受光素子の全ての組み合わせについて、ステップS713〜S717の処理を繰り返す(S718)。これにより、物体が閉状態でない場合に、床面検知領域での物体の検知が行われる。   If the control circuit 130 determines that an object is not detected in the floor detection region based on the acquired light reception signal (S717), Steps S713 to S703 are performed for all combinations of light projecting elements and light receiving elements in the floor detection region. The process of S717 is repeated (S718). Thereby, when the object is not in the closed state, the object is detected in the floor detection area.

制御回路130は、床面検知が終了したと判断すると、空間検知対応テーブルに記述されている投光素子の一つを発光させる(S719)。制御回路130は、空間検知対応テーブルにおいてステップS719で取得した投光素子に対応する受光素子から受光信号を取得する(S721)。   When the control circuit 130 determines that the floor surface detection is completed, the control circuit 130 causes one of the light projecting elements described in the space detection correspondence table to emit light (S719). The control circuit 130 acquires a light reception signal from the light receiving element corresponding to the light projecting element acquired in step S719 in the space detection correspondence table (S721).

制御回路130は、取得した受光信号に基づき物体を検知していないと判断すると(S723)、空間検知対応テーブルに記述されている投光素子、受光素子の全ての組み合わせについて、ステップS719〜S723の処理を繰り返す(S724)。これにより、物体が閉状態でない場合に、空間検知領域での物体の検知が行われる。   When determining that the object is not detected based on the acquired light reception signal (S723), the control circuit 130 performs steps S719 to S723 for all combinations of light projecting elements and light receiving elements described in the space detection correspondence table. The process is repeated (S724). Thereby, when the object is not in the closed state, the object is detected in the space detection region.

制御回路130は、ドアパネル55a、55bが開状態となってから所定の時間が経過したか否かを判断する(725)。   The control circuit 130 determines whether or not a predetermined time has elapsed since the door panels 55a and 55b are opened (725).

制御回路130は、ドアパネル55a、55bが開状態となってから所定の時間が経過したと判断すると(725)、ドアパネル55a、55bを閉状態とする扉閉情報を生成し、駆動装置へ送信する(S727)。   When the control circuit 130 determines that a predetermined time has elapsed since the door panels 55a and 55b are opened (725), the control circuit 130 generates door closing information for closing the door panels 55a and 55b, and transmits the door closing information to the driving device. (S727).

一方、制御回路130は、ドアパネル55a、55bが開状態となってから所定の時間が経過していないと判断すると(725)、順次、ステップS713〜S725の処理を実行する。   On the other hand, when the control circuit 130 determines that the predetermined time has not elapsed since the door panels 55a and 55b are opened (725), the control circuit 130 sequentially executes the processes of steps S713 to S725.

これにより、物体が閉状態でない場合には、床面検知領域及び空間検知での物体の検知が行われる。このように、ドアパネル55a、55bの開閉状態によって空間検知領域での検知と床面検知領域での検知とを切り換えることによって、ドアパネル55a、55bが閉状態において床面F100の状態によって生ずるドアパネル55a、55bが開かない等の不具合を防止できると共に、ドアパネル55a、55bが開状態において床面F100に近い領域での検知を行うことによって、確実に物体を検出することができる。   Thereby, when the object is not in the closed state, the object is detected in the floor detection area and the space detection. Thus, by switching between detection in the space detection region and detection in the floor surface detection region depending on the open / closed state of the door panels 55a and 55b, the door panel 55a and 55b generated by the state of the floor surface F100 when the door panels 55a and 55b are closed. In addition to preventing problems such as the opening of the door 55b, the detection of the object in the region close to the floor surface F100 when the door panels 55a and 55b are in the open state can reliably detect the object.

However, if the intersection region between the floor surface light projection region and the floor surface light reception region can be formed, It is not limited. For example, you may form so that a floor surface light projection area | region and a floor surface light-receiving area may correspond completely. Moreover, you may make it form a floor surface light projection area | region and a floor surface light reception area | region, shifting to the arrow a1 direction (refer FIG. 1, FIG. 2). Further, the floor light projecting area and the floor light receiving area may be formed by shifting in an arbitrary direction.

As long as it can be used, the present invention is not limited to the examples.

(5)空間検知領域 : 前述の実施例1においては、投光領域L111−1〜L111−16と受光領域L121−1〜L121−16との交差領域のうち、空間Aにおいて最も下層に形成される交差領域を空間検知領域l1〜l12としたが、空間Aにおいて物体を検知できれば例示のものに限定されない。例えば、投光領域L111−1〜L111−16と受光領域L121−1〜L121−16とによって形成される交差領域を適当に組み合わせて空間検知領域を配置するようにしてもよい。   (5) Space detection area: In the above-described first embodiment, the space detection area is formed in the lowermost layer in the space A among the intersection areas of the light projection areas L111-1 to L111-16 and the light reception areas L121-1 to L121-16. However, the present invention is not limited to the illustrated example as long as an object can be detected in the space A. For example, the space detection area may be arranged by appropriately combining the intersection areas formed by the light projecting areas L111-1 to L111-16 and the light receiving areas L121-1 to L121-16.

(6)床面検知領域、空間検知領域の位置調整 : 前述の実施例1では、投光素子111−1〜111−16及び受光素子121−1〜121−16の位置関係、及び、投光素子111−1〜111−16の投光方向、受光素子121−1〜121−16の受光方向を固定していたが、これらを調整できるようにしてもよい。例えば、自動ドアセンサ100の設置作業者やユーザが、床面投光領域R111−1〜R111−16や床面受光領域R121−1〜R121−16等の位置を調整可能とするための調整手段を、自動ドアセンサ100に実装すればよい。その場合、投光素子、受光素子のいずれか、又は両者の投光方向や受光方向の角度の調整機能や、投光素子、受光素子のいずれか又は両者とレンズ113、123の位置の調整機能を付加すればよい。角度調整、位置調整を行うことで、投光領域と受光領域との交差領域の大きさを調整できる。また、投光領域と受光領域とを完全に一致させることもできる。さらに、調整量を示す目盛りを付加することによって、調整を容易にできる。
(6) Position adjustment of floor surface detection area and space detection area: In the first embodiment described above, the positional relationship between the light projecting elements 111-1 to 111-16 and the light receiving elements 121-1 to 121-16, and the light projection Although the light projecting direction of the elements 111-1 to 111-16 and the light receiving direction of the light receiving elements 121-1 to 121-16 are fixed, these may be adjusted. For example, an adjustment means for enabling an installation worker or a user of the automatic door sensor 100 to adjust the positions of the floor light projecting areas R111-1 to R111-16, the floor light receiving areas R121-1 to R121-16, and the like. What is necessary is just to mount in the automatic door sensor 100. In that case, either the light projecting element or the light receiving element, or the function of adjusting the light projecting direction or the angle of the light receiving direction, or the function of adjusting the position of either the light projecting element or the light receiving element or both, and the lenses 113 and 123 Can be added. By performing the angle adjustment and the position adjustment, the size of the intersection area between the light projecting area and the light receiving area can be adjusted. In addition, the light projecting area and the light receiving area can be completely matched. Furthermore, adjustment can be facilitated by adding a scale indicating the adjustment amount.
