Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To install each remote-control receiver at a position where a reception level is excellent without using a special device for measuring radio wave intensity, thereby improving installation workability of a plurality of remote-control receivers.SOLUTION: A plurality of remote-control receivers 31 to 36, each having transmission function as well as reception function, have level detection means 31e to 36e for detecting the reception level of radio signals transmitted by remote control transmitters, respectively. The single remote control transmitter has reception function in addition to transmission function and has level display parts 40t to 40z for displaying the reception level of radio signals detected by the level detection means. Radio communication between the remote control transmitter and the remote control receiver is constituted in such a manner as to be switchable between a normal operation mode, in which the remote control transmitter transmits a control signal to the remote control receiver to control an electrically-driven motor, and a maintenance mode, in which the reception level of radio signals between the remote control transmitter and the remote control receiver is detected.

Description

本発明は、単一のリモコン送信機が複数のリモコン受信機に電動モータの制御信号を無線で送信することにより電動モータが駆動され、この電動モータの駆動により複数のブラインド、カーテン、間仕切り等の遮蔽体を開閉駆動する装置に関するものである。   In the present invention, an electric motor is driven by a single remote control transmitter wirelessly transmitting a control signal of an electric motor to a plurality of remote control receivers, and a plurality of blinds, curtains, partitions, etc. are driven by the driving of the electric motor. The present invention relates to a device for opening and closing a shield.

従来、この種の遮蔽体の電動式開閉装置として、複数の電動ブラインドが並設され、操作スイッチの操作信号に基づいて各電動ブラインドが同期して駆動され、操作スイッチの操作信号が各電動ブラインドのヘッドボックスに設けられた送信機及び受信機により順次隣合うヘッドボックスに無線で伝送されるように構成された連装ブラインドのスラット駆動装置が開示されている(例えば、特許文献1参照。)。   Conventionally, a plurality of electric blinds are arranged side by side as an electric opening and closing device of this type of shield, and each electric blind is driven in synchronization based on an operation signal of the operation switch. A continuous blind slat drive device is disclosed which is configured to be wirelessly transmitted to adjacent head boxes by a transmitter and a receiver provided in the head box (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

このように構成された連装ブラインドのスラット駆動装置では、操作スイッチの操作信号が、各電動ブラインドのヘッドボックスに内蔵された送信機から、順次後続のヘッドボックスに内蔵された受信機に送信されて、各電動ブラインドのスラットが同一の操作信号に基づいて同期して駆動される。また各ヘッドボックス間において、操作信号が送信機と受信機を介して無線で伝達されるため、信号配線を設ける必要がなく、電動ブラインドの施工工事を簡略化できるようになっている。   In the continuous blind slat drive device configured as described above, the operation signal of the operation switch is sequentially transmitted from the transmitter incorporated in the head box of each electric blind to the receiver incorporated in the succeeding head box. The slats of each electric blind are driven synchronously based on the same operation signal. In addition, since the operation signal is transmitted wirelessly between the head boxes via the transmitter and the receiver, there is no need to provide signal wiring, and the construction work of the electric blind can be simplified.

また、複数のエリアに電動ブラインドがそれぞれ設置され、送信機が、各エリアのいずれかを選択するエリア選択信号と、この選択されたエリア内の電動ブラインドの動作を制御する動作命令信号とを生成するとともに、これらの信号をリモコン信号として出力し、受信機が送信機から出力されるリモコン信号を受信して上記選択されたエリア内の電動ブラインドの動作を制御するように構成された電動ブラインドの制御装置が開示されている(例えば、特許文献2参照。)。この電動ブラインドの制御装置では、送信機が、エリア選択情報を生成するためのエリア選択スイッチと、動作命令信号を生成するための操作スイッチと、エリア選択情報を記憶するためのエリア記憶用メモリとを有する。また送信機にはCPUが設けられる。このCPUは、エリア選択スイッチの操作に基づいて生成されたエリア選択情報をエリア記憶用メモリに格納し、操作スイッチの操作に基づいて、エリア選択情報からエリア選択信号を生成し、エリア選択信号と動作命令信号とをリモコン信号として出力するように構成される。   In addition, electric blinds are installed in a plurality of areas, respectively, and the transmitter generates an area selection signal for selecting one of the areas and an operation command signal for controlling the operation of the electric blinds in the selected area. And outputting these signals as remote control signals so that the receiver receives the remote control signal output from the transmitter and controls the operation of the electric blinds in the selected area. A control device is disclosed (for example, refer to Patent Document 2). In this electric blind control device, the transmitter has an area selection switch for generating area selection information, an operation switch for generating an operation command signal, and an area storage memory for storing area selection information. Have The transmitter is provided with a CPU. The CPU stores area selection information generated based on the operation of the area selection switch in the area storage memory, generates an area selection signal from the area selection information based on the operation of the operation switch, The operation command signal is configured to be output as a remote control signal.

このように構成された電動ブラインドの制御装置では、複数の操作スイッチのいずれかが操作されると、CPUはその入力信号がエリア選択情報であるか否かを検出し、エリア選択情報の入力を検出すると、そのエリア選択情報をエリア記憶用メモリに格納する。一方、エリア選択情報以外の入力信号を検出し、かつその入力信号が操作スイッチのいずれかの操作に基づく動作命令信号であると、CPUはエリア記憶用メモリに格納されているエリア選択情報に基づいてエリア選択信号を生成し、入力された動作命令信号と合成して、エリア選択信号及び動作命令信号をリモコン信号として連続出力する。このCPUから出力されたリモコン信号は、LEDから赤外線信号として送信されて受信機により受信されると、受信機はブラインド制御信号を生成して出力するので、選択されたエリアの各電動ブラインドが動作する。   In the control device for an electric blind configured as described above, when any one of a plurality of operation switches is operated, the CPU detects whether the input signal is area selection information, and inputs the area selection information. When detected, the area selection information is stored in the area storage memory. On the other hand, when an input signal other than the area selection information is detected and the input signal is an operation command signal based on any operation of the operation switch, the CPU is based on the area selection information stored in the area storage memory. Then, an area selection signal is generated and combined with the input operation command signal, and the area selection signal and the operation command signal are continuously output as a remote control signal. When the remote control signal output from the CPU is transmitted as an infrared signal from the LED and received by the receiver, the receiver generates and outputs a blind control signal so that each electric blind in the selected area operates. To do.

このように、送信機の操作により、各エリア毎の複数の電動ブラインドの操作が一括して行われる。具体的には、エリア選択スイッチの操作に基づくエリア選択情報が、送信機内のエリア記憶用メモリに格納された後に、複数の操作スイッチのいずれかが操作される度に、エリア選択情報に基づいて生成されたエリア選択信号と、操作されたスイッチに対応する動作命令信号とが連続して出力される。従って、同一エリアの電動ブラインドを操作する場合には、エリア選択スイッチの操作を省略することができるので、エリア毎の電動ブラインドを容易に操作できるようになっている。   In this way, the operation of the plurality of electric blinds for each area is collectively performed by the operation of the transmitter. Specifically, after the area selection information based on the operation of the area selection switch is stored in the area storage memory in the transmitter, every time one of the plurality of operation switches is operated, the area selection information is based on the area selection information. The generated area selection signal and the operation command signal corresponding to the operated switch are continuously output. Therefore, when operating the electric blind in the same area, the operation of the area selection switch can be omitted, so that the electric blind for each area can be easily operated.

特開平6−117169号公報(請求項1、段落[0020]〜[0022])JP-A-6-117169 (Claim 1, paragraphs [0020] to [0022]) 特開2000−96955号公報(請求項1、段落[0029]〜[0034])JP 2000-96955 A (Claim 1, paragraphs [0029] to [0034])

しかし、上記従来の特許文献1に示された連装ブラインドのスラット駆動装置では、操作スイッチの操作信号が各電動ブラインドのヘッドボックス内の送信機及び受信機により順次隣合うヘッドボックスに無線で伝送されるので、複数の電動ブラインド用スラットが連動して開閉されるけれども、操作スイッチの操作信号により複数の電動ブラインド用スラットのいずれか1つだけを開閉することができない不具合があった。これに対し、上記従来の特許文献2に示された電動ブラインドの制御装置では、LEDから送信されたリモコン信号が受信機により受信されると、受信機がブラインド制御信号を生成して出力するので、選択されたエリアの各電動ブラインドが動作するけれども、CPUから出力されたリモコン信号が、LEDから赤外線信号として送信されて受信機により受信されるため、受信機が送信機から見えない場所に設置されると、LEDから赤外線信号として送信されたリモコン信号を受信機が受信できない問題点があった。   However, in the conventional blind slat drive device disclosed in Patent Document 1, the operation signal of the operation switch is wirelessly transmitted to the adjacent head boxes by the transmitter and the receiver in the head box of each electric blind. Therefore, although the plurality of electric blind slats are opened and closed in conjunction with each other, there is a problem that only one of the plurality of electric blind slats cannot be opened or closed by the operation signal of the operation switch. On the other hand, in the control device for the electric blind shown in the above-mentioned conventional patent document 2, when the remote control signal transmitted from the LED is received by the receiver, the receiver generates and outputs the blind control signal. Although each electric blind in the selected area operates, the remote control signal output from the CPU is transmitted as an infrared signal from the LED and received by the receiver, so that the receiver cannot be seen from the transmitter. Then, there has been a problem that the receiver cannot receive the remote control signal transmitted as an infrared signal from the LED.

この点を解消するために、上記従来の特許文献2に示された電動ブラインドの制御装置において、CPUから出力されたリモコン信号が、赤外線信号ではなく無線で送信されて受信機により受信されるように構成する電動ブラインドの制御装置が考えられる。   In order to eliminate this point, in the control device for the electric blind shown in the above-mentioned conventional patent document 2, the remote control signal output from the CPU is transmitted wirelessly instead of the infrared signal and received by the receiver. A control device for an electric blind configured as follows can be considered.

しかし、この改良された電動ブラインドの制御装置では、単一の送信機が複数の受信機にリモコン信号を無線で送信してエリア毎に電動ブラインドを制御するため、電動ブラインドの設置後であって、各受信機が単一の送信機からの無線によるリモコン信号を受信したか否かを検査するときに、送信機から所定の受信機にリモコン信号を送信しても所定のエリアの電動ブラインドが動作しない場合、電動ブラインド、送信機又は受信機のいずれの故障であるか判別できない問題点があった。   However, in this improved electric blind control device, a single transmitter transmits a remote control signal to a plurality of receivers wirelessly to control the electric blind for each area. When checking whether each receiver has received a wireless remote control signal from a single transmitter, even if the remote control signal is transmitted from the transmitter to the predetermined receiver, the electric blind in the predetermined area is not When it does not operate, there is a problem that it is impossible to determine whether the electric blind, transmitter, or receiver is malfunctioning.

電動ブラインド、送信機又は受信機のいずれの故障であるか判別するために、比較的高価なスペクトラムアナライザー等の電波測定機器を、電動ブラインドを設置している現場に持ち込んで、送信機から送信されて受信機の受信する電波の強度(受信レベル)を測定しなければならず、検査作業が煩わしい問題点があった。また、上記改良された電動ブラインドの制御装置では、受信機が送信機から見えない場所に設置されると、送信機の操作者が電動ブラインドの動作を目視で確認できないため、受信機側に電動ブラインドの動作の確認者を配置しなければならず、検査の作業性が低下する問題点もあった。   In order to determine whether the electric blind, transmitter or receiver is malfunctioning, a relatively expensive radio wave measuring instrument such as a spectrum analyzer is brought to the site where the electric blind is installed and transmitted from the transmitter. Therefore, the intensity of the radio wave received by the receiver (reception level) has to be measured, and there is a problem that the inspection work is troublesome. Further, in the improved electric blind control device, if the receiver is installed in a place where it cannot be seen from the transmitter, the operator of the transmitter cannot visually confirm the operation of the electric blind. A person who confirms the operation of the blind has to be arranged, and there is a problem that the workability of the inspection is lowered.

本発明の目的は、電波の強度を測定するための特別な測定機器を用いずに、複数のリモコン受信機を受信レベルの良好な位置にそれぞれ設置でき、これにより複数のリモコン受信機の設置作業性を向上できる、遮蔽体の電動式開閉装置を提供することにある。本発明の別の目的は、リモコン送信機を操作しても電動モータが動作しない場合、電動モータ、送信機又は受信機のいずれの故障であるかを比較的容易に判別することができるとともに、リモコン送信機の操作者が一人でリモコン送信機及びリモコン受信機間の電波の強度を確認できる、遮蔽体の電動式開閉装置を提供することにある。   The object of the present invention is to install a plurality of remote control receivers at good reception levels without using a special measuring instrument for measuring the intensity of radio waves, thereby installing a plurality of remote control receivers. An object of the present invention is to provide an electric switchgear for a shield that can improve the performance. Another object of the present invention is that when the electric motor does not operate even when the remote control transmitter is operated, it can be determined relatively easily whether the electric motor, the transmitter or the receiver is malfunctioning, It is an object of the present invention to provide an electric switchgear for a shield that allows an operator of a remote control transmitter to check the intensity of radio waves between the remote control transmitter and the remote control receiver alone.

本発明の第1の観点は、図1及び図2に示すように、複数の遮蔽体11〜16をそれぞれ開閉駆動する複数の電動モータ21〜26と、複数の電動モータ21〜26近傍に配置され複数の電動モータ21〜26の制御信号をそれぞれ無線で受信するとともに複数の電動モータ21〜26に上記制御信号に基づく制御電力又は制御信号をそれぞれ供給する複数のリモコン受信機31〜36と、複数のリモコン受信機31〜36のいずれか1つ又は複数或いは全てを選択する選択操作部40hとこの選択したリモコン受信機31〜36を表示する選択表示部40a〜40gとを有し上記選択したリモコン受信機31〜36に制御信号を無線で送信する単一のリモコン送信機40とを備えた遮蔽体の電動式開閉装置であって、複数のリモコン受信機31〜36が、上記受信機能に加えて送信機能をそれぞれ有するとともに、リモコン送信機40の送信した無線信号の受信レベルを検出するレベル検出手段31e〜36eをそれぞれ有し、単一のリモコン送信機40が、上記送信機能に加えて受信機能を有するとともに、レベル検出手段31e〜36eの検出した無線信号の受信レベルを表示するレベル表示部40t〜40zを有し、リモコン送信機40及びリモコン受信機31〜36間の無線通信は、リモコン送信機40がリモコン受信機31〜36に制御信号を送信して電動モータ21〜26を制御する通常操作モードと、リモコン送信機40及びリモコン受信機31〜36間の無線信号の受信レベルを検出するメンテナンスモードとに切換え可能に構成されたことを特徴とする。   As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the first aspect of the present invention is arranged in the vicinity of a plurality of electric motors 21 to 26 that open and close a plurality of shields 11 to 16, respectively, and a plurality of electric motors 21 to 26. A plurality of remote control receivers 31 to 36 for receiving control signals of the plurality of electric motors 21 to 26 wirelessly and supplying control power or control signals based on the control signals to the plurality of electric motors 21 to 26, respectively. The selection operation unit 40h for selecting any one or a plurality or all of the plurality of remote control receivers 31 to 36 and the selection display units 40a to 40g for displaying the selected remote control receivers 31 to 36 are selected. A shielded electric switchgear comprising a single remote control transmitter 40 for wirelessly transmitting a control signal to the remote control receivers 31 to 36, and a plurality of remote control receivers 1 to 36 have a transmission function in addition to the reception function, respectively, and level detection means 31e to 36e for detecting the reception level of the radio signal transmitted by the remote control transmitter 40, respectively. 40 has a reception function in addition to the transmission function, and has level display sections 40t to 40z for displaying the reception levels of the radio signals detected by the level detection means 31e to 36e, and the remote control transmitter 40 and the remote control receiver The wireless communication between 31 to 36 includes a normal operation mode in which the remote control transmitter 40 transmits a control signal to the remote control receivers 31 to 36 to control the electric motors 21 to 26, and the remote control transmitter 40 and the remote control receivers 31 to 36. It is characterized in that it can be switched to a maintenance mode for detecting the reception level of radio signals between 36.

本発明の第2の観点は、図5及び図6に示すように、複数の遮蔽体11〜16をそれぞれ開閉駆動する複数の電動モータ21〜26と、複数の電動モータ21〜26近傍に配置され複数の電動モータ21〜26の制御信号をそれぞれ無線で受信するとともに複数の電動モータ21〜26に制御信号に基づく制御電力又は制御信号をそれぞれ供給する複数のリモコン受信機61〜66と、複数のリモコン受信機61〜66のいずれか1つ又は複数或いは全てを選択する選択操作部70bとこの選択したリモコン受信機61〜66を表示する選択表示部70aとを有し上記選択したリモコン受信機61〜66に制御信号を無線で送信する単一のリモコン送信機70とを備えた遮蔽体の電動式開閉装置であって、複数のリモコン受信機61〜66が、上記受信機能に加えて送信機能をそれぞれ有し、単一のリモコン送信機70が、上記送信機能に加えて受信機能を有するとともに、リモコン受信機61〜66の送信した無線信号の受信レベルを検出するレベル検出手段70gと、レベル検出手段70gの検出した無線信号の受信レベルを表示するレベル表示部70nとを有し、リモコン送信機70及びリモコン受信機61〜66間の無線通信は、リモコン送信機70がリモコン受信機61〜66に制御信号を送信して電動モータ21〜26を制御する通常操作モードと、リモコン送信機70及びリモコン受信機61〜66間の無線信号の受信レベルを検出するメンテナンスモードとに切換え可能に構成されたことを特徴とする。   As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the second aspect of the present invention is arranged in the vicinity of the plurality of electric motors 21 to 26 for driving the plurality of shields 11 to 16 to open and close, and the plurality of electric motors 21 to 26, respectively. A plurality of remote control receivers 61 to 66 for receiving control signals of the plurality of electric motors 21 to 26 wirelessly and supplying control power or control signals based on the control signals to the plurality of electric motors 21 to 26, respectively. Remote control receivers 61 to 66 having a selection operation unit 70b for selecting one or more or all of them and a selection display unit 70a for displaying the selected remote control receivers 61 to 66. 61 to 66 is a shielded electric switchgear having a single remote control transmitter 70 for wirelessly transmitting a control signal to the plurality of remote control receivers 61 to 66. In addition to the above reception function, each has a transmission function, and a single remote control transmitter 70 has a reception function in addition to the above transmission function, and detects the reception level of the radio signal transmitted by the remote control receivers 61-66 And a level display unit 70n for displaying the reception level of the radio signal detected by the level detection unit 70g. The wireless communication between the remote control transmitter 70 and the remote control receivers 61 to 66 is performed by remote control transmission. The normal operation mode in which the machine 70 transmits control signals to the remote control receivers 61 to 66 to control the electric motors 21 to 26, and the reception level of radio signals between the remote control transmitter 70 and the remote control receivers 61 to 66 are detected. It is characterized in that it can be switched to the maintenance mode.

本発明の第3の観点は、第1又は第2の観点に基づく発明であって、更に図2に示すように、選択表示部40a〜40gがレベル表示部40t〜40zを兼ねることを特徴とする。   A third aspect of the present invention is an invention based on the first or second aspect, and as shown in FIG. 2, the selection display sections 40a to 40g also serve as level display sections 40t to 40z. To do.

本発明の第4の観点は、第1又は第2の観点に基づく発明であって、更に図2に示すように、遮蔽体がブラインド11〜16、カーテン又は間仕切りであることを特徴とする。   A fourth aspect of the present invention is an invention based on the first or second aspect, and is further characterized in that the shield is a blind 11 to 16, a curtain or a partition as shown in FIG.

本発明の第1の観点の遮蔽体の電動式開閉装置では、リモコン送信機が選択操作部で選択されたリモコン受信機に無線でメンテナンス信号を送信し、この選択されたリモコン受信機の信号レベル検出手段がメンテナンス信号の受信レベルを検出し、このメンテナンス信号の受信レベル情報を上記選択されたリモコン受信機がリモコン送信機に無線で送信し、更にこのメンテナンス信号の受信レベル情報がリモコン送信機のレベル表示部に表示されるので、電波の強度を測定するための特別な測定機器を用いずに、複数のリモコン受信機を受信レベルの良好な位置にそれぞれ設置できる。この結果、複数のリモコン受信機の設置作業性を向上できる。またリモコン送信機を操作しても電動モータが動作しない場合、電動モータ、リモコン送信機又はリモコン受信機のいずれの故障であるかを比較的容易に判別することができるとともに、リモコン送信機の操作者が一人でリモコン送信機及びリモコン受信機間の電波の強度を確認できる。更にレベル表示部に通常使用時と同じ正味の受信レベルが表示されるので、リモコン受信機自体の受信感度を確認することができる、即ちリモコン受信機自体が正常であるか否かを確認できる。   In the electric switchgear of the shield according to the first aspect of the present invention, the remote control transmitter wirelessly transmits a maintenance signal to the remote control receiver selected by the selection operation unit, and the signal level of the selected remote control receiver The detecting means detects the reception level of the maintenance signal, and the selected remote control receiver wirelessly transmits the maintenance signal reception level information to the remote control transmitter. Further, the reception level information of the maintenance signal is received from the remote control transmitter. Since it is displayed on the level display section, a plurality of remote control receivers can be installed at good reception levels, respectively, without using a special measuring device for measuring the intensity of radio waves. As a result, the installation workability of a plurality of remote control receivers can be improved. If the electric motor does not operate even when the remote control transmitter is operated, it can be determined relatively easily whether the electric motor, the remote control transmitter or the remote control receiver is malfunctioning, and the operation of the remote control transmitter is also possible. One person can check the strength of radio waves between the remote control transmitter and the remote control receiver alone. Furthermore, since the same net reception level as in normal use is displayed on the level display section, it is possible to confirm the reception sensitivity of the remote control receiver itself, that is, whether or not the remote control receiver itself is normal.

本発明の第2の観点の遮蔽体の電動式開閉装置では、リモコン送信機が第1メンテナンス信号を複数のリモコン受信機のうち選択操作部で選択されたリモコン受信機に無線で送信し、この選択されたリモコン受信機が第1メンテナンス信号を無線で受信したときに第2メンテナンス信号をリモコン送信機に無線で送信し、この第2メンテナンス信号の受信レベルをリモコン送信機の信号レベル検出手段が検出し、この第2メンテナンス信号の受信レベルがリモコン送信機のレベル表示部に表示されるので、上記と同様に、電波の強度を測定するための特別な測定機器を用いずに、複数のリモコン受信機を受信レベルの良好な位置にそれぞれ設置できる。この結果、複数のリモコン受信機の設置作業性を向上できる。またリモコン送信機を操作しても電動モータが動作しない場合、電動モータ、リモコン送信機又はリモコン受信機のいずれの故障であるかを比較的容易に判別することができるとともに、リモコン送信機の操作者が一人でリモコン送信機及びリモコン受信機間の電波の強度を確認できる。また信号レベル検出手段を複数のリモコン送信機にそれぞれ設けずに単一のリモコン送信機に1つ設けるだけで済むので、装置の製作工数及び製作コストを低減できる。更にリモコン受信機からリモコン送信機に送信された信号の受信レベル、即ちリモコン受信機からの返信信号の受信レベルがレベル表示部に表示されるので、リモコン送信機及びリモコン受信機間の電波の強度を検出するメンテナンスモードに切換えれば、使用環境で一方向の無線通信が成立するか否かを確認することができる。   In the electric switchgear of the shield according to the second aspect of the present invention, the remote control transmitter wirelessly transmits the first maintenance signal to the remote control receiver selected by the selection operation unit among the plurality of remote control receivers. When the selected remote control receiver receives the first maintenance signal wirelessly, the second maintenance signal is wirelessly transmitted to the remote control transmitter, and the reception level of the second maintenance signal is detected by the signal level detection means of the remote control transmitter. Since the reception level of the second maintenance signal is detected and displayed on the level display unit of the remote control transmitter, a plurality of remote controls can be used without using a special measuring device for measuring the intensity of radio waves, as described above. Each receiver can be installed at a good reception level. As a result, the installation workability of a plurality of remote control receivers can be improved. If the electric motor does not operate even when the remote control transmitter is operated, it can be determined relatively easily whether the electric motor, the remote control transmitter or the remote control receiver is malfunctioning, and the operation of the remote control transmitter is also possible. One person can check the strength of radio waves between the remote control transmitter and the remote control receiver alone. Further, since the signal level detection means is not provided for each of the plurality of remote control transmitters, but only for a single remote control transmitter, it is possible to reduce the number of manufacturing steps and the manufacturing cost of the apparatus. Further, since the reception level of the signal transmitted from the remote control receiver to the remote control transmitter, that is, the reception level of the reply signal from the remote control receiver is displayed on the level display section, the radio wave intensity between the remote control transmitter and the remote control receiver is displayed. Can be confirmed whether or not one-way wireless communication is established in the usage environment.

単一のリモコン送信機40は、上記送信機能に加えて受信機能を有するとともに、レベル検出手段31e〜36eの検出した無線信号の受信レベルを表示するレベル表示部40t〜40zを有する。具体的には、リモコン送信機40は、図1に示すように、アンテナ40iと、アンテナ40iに電気的に接続された無線周波数(RF)回路40jと、無線周波数回路(RF)回路40jに電気的に接続された変調回路40kと、無線周波数回路(RF)40jに電気的に接続された復調回路40mと、制御入力に復調回路40m及び選択操作釦40hが電気的に接続され制御出力に変調回路40k及び選択表示部40a〜40gが電気的に接続されたCPU40nと、出力にCPU40n及び選択表示部40a〜40gが電気的に接続された電源回路40pとを有する。アンテナ40iはUHF波等の無線信号を送受信可能に構成され、電源回路40pはバッテリにより構成される。また選択表示部40a〜40gは、第1〜第6選択表示部40a〜40f(『1』〜『6』という文字をそれぞれ付した発光ダイオード)と、全選択表示部40g(『ALL』という文字を付した発光ダイオード)とからなる。またリモコン送信機40には、電動モータ21〜26を正転させてブラインド11〜16を上昇させる開釦40qと、電動モータ21〜26を逆転させてブラインド11〜16を下降させる閉釦40rと、電動モータ21〜26を停止させるストップ釦40sとが設けられる。更に電源回路40pは、選択表示部40a〜40g、選択操作釦40h、無線周波数(RF)回路40j、変調回路40k、復調回路40m、CPU40n、開釦40q、閉釦40r及びストップ釦40sにそれぞれ電気的に接続され、これらの回路等に電力を供給するように構成される。   The single remote control transmitter 40 has a reception function in addition to the above transmission function, and has level display units 40t to 40z for displaying the reception levels of the radio signals detected by the level detection means 31e to 36e. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, the remote control transmitter 40 is electrically connected to an antenna 40i, a radio frequency (RF) circuit 40j electrically connected to the antenna 40i, and a radio frequency circuit (RF) circuit 40j. Connected modulation circuit 40k, demodulation circuit 40m electrically connected to radio frequency circuit (RF) 40j, demodulation circuit 40m and selection operation button 40h electrically connected to the control input, and modulated to control output The CPU 40n is electrically connected to the circuit 40k and the selection display sections 40a to 40g, and the power supply circuit 40p is electrically connected to the output of the CPU 40n and the selection display sections 40a to 40g. The antenna 40i is configured to be able to transmit and receive radio signals such as UHF waves, and the power supply circuit 40p is configured from a battery. The selection display units 40a to 40g include the first to sixth selection display units 40a to 40f (light emitting diodes with the characters "1" to "6" respectively) and the all selection display unit 40g (the character "ALL"). Light emitting diode). Further, the remote control transmitter 40 includes an open button 40q that rotates the electric motors 21 to 26 in the normal direction and raises the blinds 11 to 16, and a close button 40r that reverses the electric motors 21 to 26 and lowers the blinds 11 to 16. A stop button 40s for stopping the electric motors 21 to 26 is provided. Further, the power supply circuit 40p is electrically connected to the selection display sections 40a to 40g, the selection operation button 40h, the radio frequency (RF) circuit 40j, the modulation circuit 40k, the demodulation circuit 40m, the CPU 40n, the open button 40q, the close button 40r, and the stop button 40s. Connected to each other and configured to supply power to these circuits.

またリモコン送信機40及びリモコン受信機31〜36間の無線通信は、リモコン送信機40がリモコン受信機31〜36に制御信号を送信して電動モータ21〜26を制御する通常操作モードと、リモコン送信機40及びリモコン受信機31〜36間の無線信号の受信レベルを検出するメンテナンスモードとに切換え可能に構成される。具体的には、通常操作モードの状態で、選択操作釦40hとストップ釦40sとが同時に2秒以上長押しされると、メンテナンスモードに移行し、メンテナンスモードの状態で、ストップ釦40sが押されると、通常操作モードに移行するように構成される。更に上記選択表示部40a〜40gはレベル表示部40t〜40zを兼ねるように構成される。即ち、メンテナンスモードにおけるメンテナンス信号の受信レベルが、第1〜第6選択表示部40a〜40fと全選択表示部40gの7つの発光ダイオードを用いて、7つの段階で表されるようになっている。これにより選択表示部40a〜40gとは別にレベル表示部40t〜40zを設ける必要がなく、リモコン送信機40を小型にすることができる。また上記7つの発光ダイオードの点灯個数が少ないほどメンテナンス信号が弱いことを表し、7つの発光ダイオードの点灯個数が多いほどメンテナンス信号が強いことを表す。   The wireless communication between the remote control transmitter 40 and the remote control receivers 31 to 36 includes a normal operation mode in which the remote control transmitter 40 transmits a control signal to the remote control receivers 31 to 36 to control the electric motors 21 to 26, and the remote control. It can be switched to a maintenance mode for detecting the reception level of the radio signal between the transmitter 40 and the remote control receivers 31 to 36. Specifically, when the selection operation button 40h and the stop button 40s are simultaneously pressed for 2 seconds or longer in the normal operation mode state, the mode shifts to the maintenance mode, and the stop button 40s is pressed in the maintenance mode state. And configured to shift to the normal operation mode. Further, the selection display units 40a to 40g are configured to also serve as the level display units 40t to 40z. That is, the reception level of the maintenance signal in the maintenance mode is expressed in seven stages using the seven light emitting diodes of the first to sixth selection display units 40a to 40f and the all selection display unit 40g. . Thereby, it is not necessary to provide the level display units 40t to 40z separately from the selection display units 40a to 40g, and the remote control transmitter 40 can be downsized. The smaller the number of the seven light emitting diodes that are lit, the weaker the maintenance signal is. The larger the number of the seven light emitting diodes that are lit, the stronger the maintenance signal.

このように構成されたブラインド11〜16の電動式開閉装置のリモコン送信機40及びリモコン受信機31〜36間の無線信号の受信レベルを検出する方法を図4のフローチャートに基づいて説明する。建物の部屋の窓に沿って第1〜第6ブラインド11〜16を設置した後に、第1〜第6リモコン受信機31〜36を第1〜第6ブラインド11〜16の各ヘッドボックス11a〜16aの上方であって第1〜第6電動モータ21〜26近傍の壁面にそれぞれ取付ける。そしてリモコン送信機40の選択操作釦40hとストップ釦40sとを同時に2秒以上長押しして、リモコン送信機40及びリモコン受信機31〜36間の無線信号の受信レベルを検出するメンテナンスモードに切換えると、単一のリモコン送信機40のCPU40nはチャネル1のブラインド用のリモコン受信機を選択する。即ち、単一のリモコン送信機40のCPU40nは第1ブラインド11用の第1リモコン受信機31を選択する。そして、単一のリモコン送信機40のCPU40nは、第1電動モータ21の制御信号と同一レベルのメンテナンス信号を第1リモコン受信機31に無線で送信する。具体的には、単一のリモコン送信機40のCPU40nは、上記メンテナンス信号を変調回路40kで搬送波に載せて変調させ、周波数変調(RF)回路40jで所定の高周波の信号に変換した後に、アンテナ40iから無線で送信する。   A method of detecting the reception level of the radio signal between the remote control transmitter 40 and the remote control receivers 31 to 36 of the electric switchgears of the blinds 11 to 16 configured as described above will be described based on the flowchart of FIG. After installing the first to sixth blinds 11 to 16 along the windows of the building room, the first to sixth remote control receivers 31 to 36 are connected to the head boxes 11a to 16a of the first to sixth blinds 11 to 16, respectively. To the wall surfaces near the first to sixth electric motors 21 to 26. Then, the selection operation button 40h and the stop button 40s of the remote control transmitter 40 are simultaneously pressed for 2 seconds or more to switch to the maintenance mode for detecting the reception level of the radio signal between the remote control transmitter 40 and the remote control receivers 31 to 36. Then, the CPU 40n of the single remote control transmitter 40 selects the remote control receiver for channel 1 blind. That is, the CPU 40 n of the single remote control transmitter 40 selects the first remote control receiver 31 for the first blind 11. Then, the CPU 40 n of the single remote control transmitter 40 wirelessly transmits a maintenance signal having the same level as the control signal of the first electric motor 21 to the first remote control receiver 31. Specifically, the CPU 40n of the single remote control transmitter 40 modulates the maintenance signal on a carrier wave by the modulation circuit 40k, converts it to a predetermined high-frequency signal by the frequency modulation (RF) circuit 40j, It transmits by radio from 40i.

この無線によるメンテナンス信号は、第1リモコン受信機31のアンテナ31aで受信され、周波数変換(RF)回路31bで所定の低周波の信号に変換され、更に復調回路31dで搬送波から分離された後に、信号レベル検出回路31eで上記メンテナンス信号の受信レベルが検出される。このメンテナンス信号の受信レベルがCPU31gの制御入力に入力されると、CPU31gはこのメンテナンス信号の受信レベル情報を変調回路31cで搬送波に載せて変調させ、周波数変調(RF)回路31bでこの変調した信号を所定の高周波の信号に変換した後に、アンテナ31aから無線で送信する。この無線によるメンテナンス信号の受信レベル情報は、単一のリモコン送信機40のアンテナ40iにより受信され、周波数変換(RF)回路40jで所定の低周波の信号に変換され、更に復調回路40mで搬送波から分離された後に、CPU40nの制御入力に入力される。このメンテナンス信号の受信レベル情報がCPU40nの制御入力に入力されると、CPU40nはこのメンテナンス信号の受信レベル情報をレベル表示部40t〜40zに表示する。例えば、受信レベルが極めて良好である場合、7つの発光ダイオードを全て点灯させる。これにより単一のリモコン送信機40及び第1リモコン受信機31間の無線通信は極めて良好であると判断できる。   This wireless maintenance signal is received by the antenna 31a of the first remote control receiver 31, is converted to a predetermined low-frequency signal by the frequency conversion (RF) circuit 31b, and is further separated from the carrier wave by the demodulation circuit 31d. The reception level of the maintenance signal is detected by the signal level detection circuit 31e. When the reception level of the maintenance signal is input to the control input of the CPU 31g, the CPU 31g modulates the reception level information of the maintenance signal on a carrier wave by the modulation circuit 31c, and the modulated signal is output by the frequency modulation (RF) circuit 31b. Is then wirelessly transmitted from the antenna 31a. This wireless maintenance signal reception level information is received by an antenna 40i of a single remote control transmitter 40, converted to a predetermined low frequency signal by a frequency conversion (RF) circuit 40j, and further from a carrier wave by a demodulation circuit 40m. After being separated, it is input to the control input of the CPU 40n. When the reception level information of the maintenance signal is input to the control input of the CPU 40n, the CPU 40n displays the reception level information of the maintenance signal on the level display units 40t to 40z. For example, when the reception level is very good, all seven light emitting diodes are turned on. Thereby, it can be determined that the wireless communication between the single remote control transmitter 40 and the first remote control receiver 31 is extremely good.

次に単一のリモコン送信機40の選択操作釦40hを押して、第2ブラインド12用の第2リモコン受信機32を選択すると、単一のリモコン送信機40のCPU40nは、変換回路40k、周波数変換(RF)回路40j及びアンテナ40iを介して第2電動モータ22の制御信号と同一レベルのメンテナンス信号を第2リモコン受信機32に無線で送信する。この無線によるメンテナンス信号は、第2リモコン送信機32のアンテナ32aで受信され、周波数変換(RF)回路32bで所定の低周波の信号に変換され、更に復調回路32dで搬送波から分離された後に、信号レベル検出回路32eで上記メンテナンス信号の受信レベルが検出される。このメンテナンス信号の受信レベルがCPU32gの制御入力に入力されると、CPU32gはこのメンテナンス信号の受信レベル情報を、変調回路32c及び周波数変調(RF)回路32bを介してアンテナ32aから無線で送信する。この無線によるメンテナンス信号の受信レベル情報は、単一のリモコン送信機40のアンテナ40iにより受信され、周波数変換(RF)回路40j及び復調回路40mを介してCPU40nの制御入力に入力される。このメンテナンス信号の受信レベル情報がCPU40nの制御入力に入力されると、CPU40nはこのメンテナンス信号の受信レベル情報をレベル表示部40t〜40zに表示する。例えば、受信レベルが低い場合、7つの発光ダイオードのうち2つの発光ダイオードを点灯させる。これにより単一のリモコン送信機40及び第2リモコン受信機32間の無線通信は低いと判断できるので、第2リモコン受信機32の位置を変更し、上記と同様にして、メンテナンス信号の受信レベル情報をレベル表示部40t〜40zに表示する。この操作を単一のリモコン送信機40及び第2リモコン受信機32間の無線通信が良好になるまで繰返す。また第3〜第6リモコン受信機33〜36についても、上記と同様にして、単一のリモコン送信機40との間の無線通信が良好になるまで、第3〜第6リモコン受信機33〜36の位置をそれぞれ変更する。この結果、第1〜第6リモコン受信機31〜36の設置作業性を向上できる。   Next, when the second remote control receiver 32 for the second blind 12 is selected by pressing the selection operation button 40h of the single remote control transmitter 40, the CPU 40n of the single remote control transmitter 40 has the conversion circuit 40k, the frequency conversion, and so on. A maintenance signal having the same level as the control signal of the second electric motor 22 is wirelessly transmitted to the second remote control receiver 32 via the (RF) circuit 40j and the antenna 40i. This wireless maintenance signal is received by the antenna 32a of the second remote control transmitter 32, converted to a predetermined low frequency signal by the frequency conversion (RF) circuit 32b, and further separated from the carrier wave by the demodulation circuit 32d. The signal level detection circuit 32e detects the reception level of the maintenance signal. When the reception level of the maintenance signal is input to the control input of the CPU 32g, the CPU 32g wirelessly transmits the reception level information of the maintenance signal from the antenna 32a through the modulation circuit 32c and the frequency modulation (RF) circuit 32b. The reception level information of the maintenance signal by radio is received by the antenna 40i of the single remote control transmitter 40, and is input to the control input of the CPU 40n via the frequency conversion (RF) circuit 40j and the demodulation circuit 40m. When the reception level information of the maintenance signal is input to the control input of the CPU 40n, the CPU 40n displays the reception level information of the maintenance signal on the level display units 40t to 40z. For example, when the reception level is low, two of the seven light emitting diodes are turned on. Accordingly, it can be determined that the wireless communication between the single remote control transmitter 40 and the second remote control receiver 32 is low. Therefore, the position of the second remote control receiver 32 is changed, and the reception level of the maintenance signal is changed in the same manner as described above. Information is displayed on the level display sections 40t to 40z. This operation is repeated until the wireless communication between the single remote control transmitter 40 and the second remote control receiver 32 becomes good. Also, for the third to sixth remote control receivers 33 to 36, the third to sixth remote control receivers 33 to 36 until the wireless communication with the single remote control transmitter 40 becomes good in the same manner as described above. The position 36 is changed. As a result, the installation workability of the first to sixth remote control receivers 31 to 36 can be improved.

また単一のリモコン送信機40を操作しても電動モータ21〜26が動作しない場合、電動モータ21〜26、リモコン送信機40又はリモコン受信機31〜36のいずれの故障であるかを比較的容易に判別することができるとともに、リモコン送信機40の操作者が一人でリモコン送信機40及びリモコン受信機31〜36間の電波の強度を確認できる。即ち、電波の強度(受信レベル)をリモコン送信機40に表示できるため、リモコン送信機40を持ちながら移動すれば、電波の届く距離や位置を確認できるので、リモコン受信機31〜36の設置位置が悪いのか、或いは周囲の電波環境が悪いのか等の判断材料の一部として活用できるとともに、電波の伝搬を遮る障害物等の発見にも役立つ。またレベル表示部40t〜40zに通常使用時と同じ正味の受信レベルが表示されるので、リモコン受信機31〜36自体の受信感度を確認することができる、即ちリモコン受信機31〜36自体が正常であるか否かを確認できる。更に通常操作モードでリモコン送信機40を操作するときのリモコン送信機40の位置を助言できる。例えば、リモコン送信機40の操作者に予め電波の強度が低下する位置があることを説明できる。   Further, if the electric motors 21 to 26 do not operate even when the single remote control transmitter 40 is operated, it is relatively determined which of the electric motors 21 to 26, the remote control transmitter 40, or the remote control receivers 31 to 36 is malfunctioning. While being able to discriminate | determine easily, the operator of the remote control transmitter 40 can confirm the intensity | strength of the electromagnetic wave between the remote control transmitter 40 and the remote control receivers 31-36 alone. That is, since the strength (reception level) of the radio wave can be displayed on the remote control transmitter 40, the distance and position of the radio wave can be confirmed by moving while holding the remote control transmitter 40. It can be used as a part of the judgment material such as whether the radio wave environment is bad or the surrounding radio wave environment is bad, and it is also useful for finding obstacles that block radio wave propagation. Further, since the same net reception level as in normal use is displayed on the level display units 40t to 40z, the reception sensitivity of the remote control receivers 31 to 36 themselves can be confirmed, that is, the remote control receivers 31 to 36 themselves are normal. It can be confirmed whether or not. Furthermore, the position of the remote control transmitter 40 when operating the remote control transmitter 40 in the normal operation mode can be advised. For example, it can be explained that the operator of the remote control transmitter 40 has a position where the intensity of the radio wave is lowered in advance.

一方、通常操作モードにおける操作手順を図3のフローチャートに基づいて説明する。メンテナンスモードの状態でストップ釦40sを押すと、通常操作モードに切換わる。即ち、第1〜第6リモコン受信機61〜66の全てを選択する『ALL』の状態になる。この状態で、選択操作釦40hを押して第3選択表示部40cを選択した後に開釦40qを押すと、リモコン送信機40が第3リモコン受信機33に、第3電動モータ23を正転させる駆動信号を無線で送信する。この無線による駆動信号は第3リモコン受信機33のアンテナ33aで受信され、周波数変換(RF)回路33bで所定の低周波の信号に変換され、更に復調回路33dで搬送波から分離された後にCPU33gの制御入力に入力される。第3リモコン受信機33のCPU33gは上記駆動信号に基づき駆動回路33fを介して第3電動モータ23を正転させる。これにより第3ブラインド13が上昇する。そして、所望の位置まで第3ブラインド13が上昇したときに、ストップ釦40sを押すと、リモコン送信機40が第3リモコン受信機33に、第3電動モータ23を停止させる停止信号を無線で送信する。この無線による停止信号は第3リモコン受信機33のアンテナ33aで受信され、周波数変換(RF)回路33bで所定の低周波の信号に変換され、更に復調回路33dで搬送波から分離された後にCPU33gの制御入力に入力される。第3リモコン受信機33のCPU33gは上記停止信号に基づき駆動回路33fを介して第3電動モータ23を停止させる。これにより第3ブラインド13が停止する。選択操作釦40hを押して、所望の選択表示部40a〜40gを選択した後に開釦40qを押せば、他のブラインド11,12,14〜16又は全てのブラインド11〜16を昇降できる。なお、メンテナンスモードから通常操作モードに切換わり、第1〜第6リモコン受信機61〜66の全てを選択する『ALL』の状態で、開釦40qを押すと、リモコン送信機40が第1〜第6リモコン受信機31〜36に、第1〜第6電動モータ21〜26を正転させる駆動信号を無線で送信するので、第1〜第6ブラインド11〜16の全てが上昇する。   On the other hand, the operation procedure in the normal operation mode will be described based on the flowchart of FIG. When the stop button 40s is pressed in the maintenance mode, the mode is switched to the normal operation mode. That is, the state becomes “ALL” for selecting all of the first to sixth remote control receivers 61 to 66. In this state, when the selection button 40h is pressed to select the third selection display unit 40c and then the open button 40q is pressed, the remote control transmitter 40 causes the third remote control receiver 33 to rotate the third electric motor 23 forward. Send the signal wirelessly. This wireless drive signal is received by the antenna 33a of the third remote control receiver 33, converted to a predetermined low frequency signal by the frequency conversion (RF) circuit 33b, further separated from the carrier wave by the demodulation circuit 33d, and then the CPU 33g. Input to the control input. The CPU 33g of the third remote control receiver 33 rotates the third electric motor 23 forward via the drive circuit 33f based on the drive signal. Thereby, the 3rd blind 13 raises. When the third blind 13 is moved up to a desired position and the stop button 40s is pressed, the remote control transmitter 40 wirelessly transmits a stop signal for stopping the third electric motor 23 to the third remote control receiver 33. To do. This wireless stop signal is received by the antenna 33a of the third remote control receiver 33, converted to a predetermined low frequency signal by the frequency conversion (RF) circuit 33b, and further separated from the carrier by the demodulation circuit 33d, and then the CPU 33g. Input to the control input. The CPU 33g of the third remote control receiver 33 stops the third electric motor 23 via the drive circuit 33f based on the stop signal. Thereby, the 3rd blind 13 stops. By pressing the selection operation button 40h and selecting the desired selection display portions 40a to 40g and then pressing the open button 40q, the other blinds 11, 12, 14 to 16 or all the blinds 11 to 16 can be moved up and down. When the maintenance button is switched to the normal operation mode and the open button 40q is pressed in the “ALL” state in which all of the first to sixth remote control receivers 61 to 66 are selected, the remote control transmitter 40 is switched to the first to sixth remote control receivers. Since the drive signals for normal rotation of the first to sixth electric motors 21 to 26 are wirelessly transmitted to the sixth remote control receivers 31 to 36, all of the first to sixth blinds 11 to 16 are raised.

単一のリモコン送信機70は、第1〜第6リモコン受信機61〜66のいずれか1つ又は全てを選択する選択操作釦70bと、この選択したリモコン受信機61〜66を表示する選択表示部70aとを有する。また単一のリモコン送信機70は、送信機能に加えて受信機能を有するとともに、リモコン受信機61〜66の送信した無線信号のレベルを検出するレベル検出回路70gと、レベル検出手段70gの検出した無線信号の受信レベルを表示するレベル表示部70nとを有する。具体的には、リモコン送信機70は、図5に示すように、アンテナ70cと、アンテナ70cに電気的に接続された無線周波数(RF)回路70dと、無線周波数回路(RF)回路70dに電気的に接続された変調回路70eと、無線周波数回路(RF)70dに電気的に接続された復調回路70fと、復調回路70fに電気的に接続されたレベル検出回路70gと、制御入力に復調回路70fと信号レベル検出回路70gと選択操作釦70bとが電気的に接続され制御出力に変調回路70e及び選択表示部70aが電気的に接続されたCPU70hと、出力にCPU70h及び選択表示部70aが電気的に接続された電源回路70iとを有する。アンテナ70cはUHF波等の無線信号を送受信可能に構成され、電源回路70iはバッテリにより構成される。また選択表示部70aには、第1〜第6リモコン受信機61〜66を選択することを意味する『1』〜『6』という数字と、第1〜第6リモコン受信機61〜66の全て(ALL)を選択することを意味する『A』という英文字のいずれかが表示されるようになっている。またリモコン送信機70には、電動モータ21〜26を正転させてブラインド11〜16を上昇させる開釦70jと、電動モータ21〜26を逆転させてブラインド11〜16を下降させる閉釦70kと、電動モータ21〜26を停止させるストップ釦70mとが設けられる。更に電源回路70iは、選択表示部70a、選択操作釦70b、無線周波数(RF)回路70d、変調回路70e、復調回路70f、レベル検出回路70g、CPU70h、開釦70j、閉釦70k及びストップ釦70mにそれぞれ電気的に接続され、これらの回路等に電力を供給するように構成される。   The single remote control transmitter 70 includes a selection operation button 70b for selecting any one or all of the first to sixth remote control receivers 61 to 66, and a selection display for displaying the selected remote control receivers 61 to 66. Part 70a. In addition to the transmission function, the single remote control transmitter 70 has a reception function, a level detection circuit 70g for detecting the level of the radio signal transmitted by the remote control receivers 61 to 66, and a level detection means 70g. A level display unit 70n for displaying a reception level of the radio signal. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, the remote control transmitter 70 is electrically connected to an antenna 70c, a radio frequency (RF) circuit 70d electrically connected to the antenna 70c, and a radio frequency circuit (RF) circuit 70d. Connected modulation circuit 70e, demodulation circuit 70f electrically connected to radio frequency circuit (RF) 70d, level detection circuit 70g electrically connected to demodulation circuit 70f, and demodulation circuit as a control input 70f, a signal level detection circuit 70g, and a selection operation button 70b are electrically connected, and a control circuit 70c and a selection display unit 70a are electrically connected to a control output, and a CPU 70h and a selection display unit 70a are electrically connected to an output. Power supply circuit 70i connected to each other. The antenna 70c is configured to be able to transmit and receive radio signals such as UHF waves, and the power supply circuit 70i is configured from a battery. The selection display unit 70a includes numbers “1” to “6” indicating that the first to sixth remote control receivers 61 to 66 are selected, and all of the first to sixth remote control receivers 61 to 66. One of the English letters “A”, which means selecting (ALL), is displayed. Further, the remote control transmitter 70 includes an open button 70j for rotating the electric motors 21 to 26 forward to raise the blinds 11 to 16, and a close button 70k for rotating the electric motors 21 to 26 reverse to lower the blinds 11 to 16.

Are electrically connected to each other and configured to supply power to these circuits.

またリモコン送信機70及びリモコン受信機61〜66間の無線通信は、リモコン送信機70がリモコン受信機61〜66に制御信号を送信して電動モータ21〜26を制御する通常操作モードと、リモコン送信機70及びリモコン受信機61〜66間の無線信号の受信レベルを検出するメンテナンスモードとに切換え可能に構成される。具体的には、通常操作モードの状態で、選択操作釦70bとストップ釦70mとが同時に2秒以上長押しされると、メンテナンスモードに移行し、メンテナンスモードの状態で、ストップ釦70mが押されると、通常操作モードに移行するように構成される。更に上記選択表示部70aはレベル表示部70nを兼ねるように構成される。即ち、メンテナンスモードにおけるメンテナンス信号の受信レベルが、選択表示部70aに表示される『1』〜『6』という数字を用いて、6つの段階で表されるようになっている。これにより選択表示部70aとは別にレベル表示部70nを設ける必要がなく、リモコン送信機70を小型にすることができる。また選択表示部70aに表示される数字が小さいほどメンテナンス信号が弱いことを表し、選択表示部70aに表示される数字が大きいほどメンテナンス信号が強いことを表す。上記以外は第1の実施の形態と同一に構成される。   The wireless communication between the remote control transmitter 70 and the remote control receivers 61 to 66 includes a normal operation mode in which the remote control transmitter 70 transmits a control signal to the remote control receivers 61 to 66 to control the electric motors 21 to 26, and the remote control. It can be switched to a maintenance mode for detecting the reception level of the radio signal between the transmitter 70 and the remote control receivers 61 to 66. Specifically, when the selection operation button 70b and the stop button 70m are simultaneously pressed for 2 seconds or longer in the normal operation mode state, the mode shifts to the maintenance mode, and the stop button 70m is pressed in the maintenance mode state. And configured to shift to the normal operation mode. Further, the selection display unit 70a is configured to also serve as the level display unit 70n. That is, the reception level of the maintenance signal in the maintenance mode is represented in six stages using the numbers “1” to “6” displayed on the selection display unit 70a. Accordingly, it is not necessary to provide the level display unit 70n separately from the selection display unit 70a, and the remote control transmitter 70 can be downsized. Further, the smaller the number displayed on the selection display unit 70a, the weaker the maintenance signal, and the larger the number displayed on the selection display unit 70a, the stronger the maintenance signal. The configuration other than the above is the same as that of the first embodiment.

このように構成されたブラインド11〜16の電動式開閉装置のリモコン送信機70及びリモコン受信機61〜66間の無線信号の受信レベルを検出する方法を図7のフローチャートに基づいて説明する。建物の部屋の窓に沿って第1〜第6ブラインド11〜16を設置した後に、第1〜第6リモコン受信機61〜66を第1〜第6ブラインド11〜16の各ヘッドボックス11a〜16aの上方であって第1〜第6電動モータ21〜26近傍の壁面にそれぞれ取付ける。そしてリモコン送信機70の選択操作釦70bとストップ釦70mとを同時に2秒以上長押しして、リモコン送信機70及びリモコン受信機61〜66間の無線信号の受信レベルを検出するメンテナンスモードに切換えると、単一のリモコン送信機70のCPU70hはチャネル1のブラインド用のリモコン受信機を選択する。即ち、単一のリモコン送信機70のCPU70hは第1ブラインド11用の第1リモコン受信機61を選択する。そして、単一のリモコン送信機70のCPU70hは、第1リモコン受信機61に選択された旨の情報を無線で送信する。具体的には、単一のリモコン送信機70のCPU70hは、上記選択された旨の情報の信号(選択情報信号)を変調回路70eで搬送波に載せて変調させ、周波数変調(RF)回路70dで所定の高周波の信号に変換した後に、アンテナ70cから無線で送信する。   A method of detecting the reception level of the radio signal between the remote control transmitter 70 and the remote control receivers 61 to 66 of the electric switchgears of the blinds 11 to 16 configured as described above will be described based on the flowchart of FIG. After installing the first to sixth blinds 11 to 16 along the windows of the building room, the first to sixth remote control receivers 61 to 66 are connected to the head boxes 11a to 16a of the first to sixth blinds 11 to 16, respectively. To the wall surfaces near the first to sixth electric motors 21 to 26. Then, the selection operation button 70b and the stop button 70m of the remote control transmitter 70 are simultaneously pressed for 2 seconds or more to switch to the maintenance mode for detecting the reception level of the radio signal between the remote control transmitter 70 and the remote control receivers 61 to 66. Then, the CPU 70h of the single remote control transmitter 70 selects the remote control receiver for channel 1 blind. That is, the CPU 70 h of the single remote control transmitter 70 selects the first remote control receiver 61 for the first blind 11. Then, the CPU 70h of the single remote control transmitter 70 wirelessly transmits information indicating that the first remote control receiver 61 has been selected. Specifically, the CPU 70h of the single remote control transmitter 70 modulates the information signal (selection information signal) indicating that the information has been selected on a carrier wave by the modulation circuit 70e, and then modulates the signal by the frequency modulation (RF) circuit 70d. After converting to a predetermined high-frequency signal, the signal is transmitted wirelessly from the antenna 70c.

この無線による選択情報信号は、上記選択された第1リモコン受信機61のアンテナ61aで受信され、この第1リモコン受信機61の周波数変換(RF)回路61bで所定の低周波の信号に変換され、更に復調回路61dで搬送波から分離された後に、CPU61fの制御入力に入力される。第1リモコン受信機61のCPU61fは第1リモコン受信機61が選択されたと判断し、第1電動モータ21の制御信号と同一レベルのメンテナンス信号を変調回路61cで搬送波に載せて変調させ、周波数変調(RF)回路61bで所定の高周波の信号に変換した後に、アンテナ61aから無線で送信する。   This wireless selection information signal is received by the antenna 61a of the selected first remote control receiver 61, and is converted into a predetermined low frequency signal by the frequency conversion (RF) circuit 61b of the first remote control receiver 61. Further, after being separated from the carrier wave by the demodulation circuit 61d, it is inputted to the control input of the CPU 61f. The CPU 61f of the first remote control receiver 61 determines that the first remote control receiver 61 has been selected, and modulates the maintenance signal having the same level as the control signal of the first electric motor 21 on the carrier wave by the modulation circuit 61c, thereby modulating the frequency. After being converted to a predetermined high-frequency signal by the (RF) circuit 61b, it is transmitted wirelessly from the antenna 61a.

この無線によるメンテナンス信号は、リモコン送信機70のアンテナ70cで受信され、周波数変換(RF)回路70dで所定の低周波の信号に変換され、更に復調回路70fで搬送波から分離された後に、信号レベル検出回路70gで上記メンテナンス信号の受信レベルが検出される。このメンテナンス信号の受信レベル情報がCPU70hの制御入力に入力されると、CPU70hはこのメンテナンス信号の受信レベル情報をレベル表示部70nに表示する。例えば、受信レベルが極めて良好である場合、レベル表示部70nに『6』という数字を表示させる。これにより単一のリモコン送信機70及び第1リモコン受信機61間の無線通信は極めて良好であると判断できる。   The wireless maintenance signal is received by the antenna 70c of the remote control transmitter 70, converted to a predetermined low frequency signal by the frequency conversion (RF) circuit 70d, and further separated from the carrier wave by the demodulation circuit 70f, and then the signal level. The detection circuit 70g detects the reception level of the maintenance signal. When the reception level information of the maintenance signal is input to the control input of the CPU 70h, the CPU 70h displays the maintenance signal reception level information on the level display unit 70n. For example, when the reception level is very good, the number “6” is displayed on the level display section 70n. Thereby, it can be determined that the wireless communication between the single remote control transmitter 70 and the first remote control receiver 61 is very good.

次に単一のリモコン送信機70の選択操作釦70bを押して、第2ブラインド12用の第2リモコン受信機62を選択すると、単一のリモコン送信機70のCPU70hは、変換回路70e、周波数変換(RF)回路70d及びアンテナ70cを介して第2リモコン受信機62が選択された旨の情報の信号(選択情報信号)を第2リモコン受信機62に無線で送信する。この無線による選択情報信号は、第2リモコン受信機62のアンテナ62aで受信され、周波数変換(RF)回路62bで所定の低周波の信号に変換され、更に復調回路62dで搬送波から分離された後に、CPU62fの制御入力に入力される。第2リモコン受信機62のCPU62fは第2リモコン受信機62が選択されたと判断し、第2電動モータ22の制御信号と同一レベルのメンテナンス信号を変調回路62cで搬送波に載せて変調させ、周波数変調(RF)回路62bで所定の高周波の信号に変換した後に、アンテナ62aから無線で送信する。   Next, when the second remote control receiver 62 for the second blind 12 is selected by pressing the selection operation button 70b of the single remote control transmitter 70, the CPU 70h of the single remote control transmitter 70 has a conversion circuit 70e, a frequency conversion, and the like. An information signal (selection information signal) indicating that the second remote control receiver 62 has been selected is wirelessly transmitted to the second remote control receiver 62 via the (RF) circuit 70d and the antenna 70c. The wireless selection information signal is received by the antenna 62a of the second remote control receiver 62, converted to a predetermined low frequency signal by the frequency conversion (RF) circuit 62b, and further separated from the carrier wave by the demodulation circuit 62d. , Input to the control input of the CPU 62f. The CPU 62f of the second remote control receiver 62 determines that the second remote control receiver 62 has been selected, modulates the maintenance signal having the same level as the control signal of the second electric motor 22 on the carrier wave by the modulation circuit 62c, and modulates the frequency. After being converted into a predetermined high-frequency signal by the (RF) circuit 62b, it is transmitted wirelessly from the antenna 62a.

この無線によるメンテナンス信号は、上記と同様に、リモコン送信機70のアンテナ70cで受信され、周波数変換(RF)回路70dで所定の低周波の信号に変換され、復調回路70fで搬送波から分離された後に、信号レベル検出回路70gで上記メンテナンス信号の受信レベルが検出される。このメンテナンス信号の受信レベル情報がCPU70hの制御入力に入力されると、CPU70hはこのメンテナンス信号の受信レベル情報をレベル表示部70nに表示する。例えば、受信レベルが低い場合、レベル表示部70nに『2』という数字を表示させる。これにより単一のリモコン送信機70及び第2リモコン受信機62間の無線通信は低いと判断できるので、第2リモコン受信機62の位置を変更し、上記と同様にして、メンテナンス信号の受信レベル情報をレベル表示部70nに表示する。この操作を単一のリモコン送信機70及び第2リモコン受信機62間の無線通信が良好になるまで繰返す。また第3〜第6リモコン受信機63〜66についても、上記と同様にして、単一のリモコン送信機70との間の無線通信が良好になるまで、第3〜第6リモコン受信機63〜66の位置をそれぞれ変更する。この結果、第1〜第6リモコン受信機61〜66の設置作業性を向上できる。   This wireless maintenance signal is received by the antenna 70c of the remote control transmitter 70 in the same manner as described above, converted to a predetermined low-frequency signal by the frequency conversion (RF) circuit 70d, and separated from the carrier wave by the demodulation circuit 70f. Later, the reception level of the maintenance signal is detected by the signal level detection circuit 70g. When the reception level information of the maintenance signal is input to the control input of the CPU 70h, the CPU 70h displays the maintenance signal reception level information on the level display unit 70n. For example, when the reception level is low, the number “2” is displayed on the level display unit 70n. Accordingly, since it can be determined that the wireless communication between the single remote control transmitter 70 and the second remote control receiver 62 is low, the position of the second remote control receiver 62 is changed, and the reception level of the maintenance signal is similar to the above. Information is displayed on the level display section 70n. This operation is repeated until the wireless communication between the single remote control transmitter 70 and the second remote control receiver 62 becomes good. Also, for the third to sixth remote control receivers 63 to 66, the third to sixth remote control receivers 63 to 63 are used until the wireless communication with the single remote control transmitter 70 becomes good in the same manner as described above. The position 66 is changed. As a result, the installation workability of the first to sixth remote control receivers 61 to 66 can be improved.

また信号レベル検出手段70gを第1〜第6リモコン受信機61〜66にそれぞれ設けずに単一のリモコン送信機70に1つ設けるだけで済むので、装置の製作工数及び製作コストを低減できる。更にリモコン受信機61〜66からリモコン送信機70に送信された信号の受信レベル、即ちリモコン受信機61〜66からの返信信号の受信レベルがレベル表示部70nに表示されるので、リモコン送信機70とリモコン受信機61〜66間の電波の強度を検出するメンテナンスモードに切換えれば、使用環境で一方向の無線通信が成立するか否かを確認することができる。   Further, since the signal level detecting means 70g is not provided for each of the first to sixth remote control receivers 61 to 66, but only one signal level detection means 70g is provided for the single remote control transmitter 70, the number of manufacturing steps and the manufacturing cost of the apparatus can be reduced. Further, the reception level of the signal transmitted from the remote control receivers 61 to 66 to the remote control transmitter 70, that is, the reception level of the reply signal from the remote control receivers 61 to 66 is displayed on the level display unit 70n. And switching to a maintenance mode for detecting the intensity of radio waves between the remote control receivers 61 to 66, it is possible to confirm whether or not one-way wireless communication is established in the usage environment.

なお、メンテナンスモードにおける上記以外の動作は第1の実施の形態の動作と略同様であるので、繰返しの説明を省略する。また、通常操作モードにおける操作手順は第1の実施の形態の操作手順と略同様であるので、繰返しの説明を省略する。また、上記第1及び第2の実施の形態では、ブラインドを6基設置したが、ブラインドを2基〜5基又は7基以上設置してもよい。更に、上記第1及び第2の実施の形態では、通常操作モードからメンテナンスモードに切換えるために、選択操作釦とストップ釦とを同時に2秒以上長押ししたが、2秒以上に限らず、3秒以上であってもよい。   Since operations other than those described above in the maintenance mode are substantially the same as the operations in the first embodiment, repeated description will be omitted. Further, since the operation procedure in the normal operation mode is substantially the same as the operation procedure of the first embodiment, repeated description is omitted. In the first and second embodiments, six blinds are installed, but two to five blinds or seven or more blinds may be installed. Further, in the first and second embodiments, in order to switch from the normal operation mode to the maintenance mode, the selection operation button and the stop button are simultaneously pressed for 2 seconds or more. However, the present invention is not limited to 2 seconds or more. It may be more than a second.
