Issues, configurations, and effects other than those described above will be clarified by the following description of the embodiments.
本発明の実施例に係るエレベータ装置の全体概略図である。It is an overall schematic diagram of the elevator apparatus which concerns on embodiment of this invention. 本発明の実施例に係るエレベータ制御装置のブロック構成図である。It is a block block diagram of the elevator control device which concerns on embodiment of this invention. 本発明の実施例に係るエレベータ装置の処理動作を示すフローチャートである。It is a flowchart which shows the processing operation of the elevator apparatus which concerns on embodiment of this invention.
　以下、本発明の実施例を図面に基づいて説明する。 Hereinafter, examples of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
　図１は本発明の実施例に係るエレベータ装置の全体概略図である。エレベータ装置１００の昇降路１０１内には、昇降路１０１内を上下方向に移動する乗りかご１０２と、乗りかご１０２と相対的に昇降路１０１内を上下方向に移動する釣合い錘１０３と、乗りかご１０２と釣合い錘１０３を接続するワイヤーロープ１０４が備えられている。 FIG. 1 is an overall schematic view of an elevator device according to an embodiment of the present invention. In the hoistway 101 of the elevator device 100, there are a car 102 that moves up and down in the hoistway 101, a counterweight 103 that moves up and down in the hoistway 101 relative to the car 102, and a car. A wire rope 104 that connects the 102 and the counterweight 103 is provided.
　エレベータ装置１００の上部には、ワイヤーロープ１０４を巻き上げて乗りかご１０２を上下方向に移動させる巻上機１０５と、ワイヤーロープ１０４の方向を転換するシーブ１０６と、エレベータの機器を制御するエレベータ制御装置１０７が備えられている。 On the upper part of the elevator device 100, a hoisting machine 105 that winds up the wire rope 104 and moves the car 102 in the vertical direction, a sheave 106 that changes the direction of the wire rope 104, and an elevator control device that controls the elevator equipment. 107 is provided.
　エレベータ装置１００が設置される建屋には、乗りかご１０２が停止する停止階１０８（１０８ａ，１０８ｂ，１０８ｃ）が備えられている。 The building where the elevator device 100 is installed is provided with stop floors 108 (108a, 108b, 108c) where the car 102 stops.
　エレベータ装置１００には、乗りかご１０２が所定の停止階１０８ａ，１０８ｃの位置で停止した際、電力線１０９を介して乗りかご１０２に給電するための送電部１１０（１１０ａ，１１０ｂ）が備えられている。送電部１１０ａ，１１０ｂが設置された停止階１０８ａ，１０８ｃは、給電可能階と称する。送電部１１０が設置される給電可能階（停止階１０８ａ，１０８ｃ）は、例えば、建屋の１階、１０階、２０階といった任意の位置とする。給電可能階の設置にあたっては、乗りかごの停止回数が多い階とすることが好ましい。 The elevator device 100 is provided with a power transmission unit 110 (110a, 110b) for supplying power to the car 102 via the power line 109 when the car 102 stops at a predetermined stop floor 108a, 108c. .. The stop floors 108a and 108c in which the power transmission units 110a and 110b are installed are referred to as power supply available floors. The power supply available floors ( stop floors 108a and 108c) where the power transmission unit 110 is installed are, for example, arbitrary positions such as the first floor, the tenth floor, and the 20th floor of the building. When installing a floor where power can be supplied, it is preferable to set the floor where the number of car stops is large.
　乗りかご１０２の上部には、乗りかご１０２が停止階１０８ａ，１０８ｃの位置で停止した際、送電部１１０（１１０ａ，１１０ｂ）から電力を受ける受電部１１１が備えられている。受電部１１１は、送電部１１０（１１０ａ，１１０ｂ）と対向することで電力を受電する。送電部１１０と受電部１１１では、例えば電磁誘導作用を利用して送電部１１０から受電部１１１へ電力を送電する。また、乗りかご１０２の上部には、受電部１１１で受電した電力の一部を充電するバッテリ１１２が備えられている。エレベータ装置１００には、送電部１１０（１１０ａ，１１０ｂ）の状態を把握するための信号線１１３が備えられている。 The upper part of the car 102 is provided with a power receiving unit 111 that receives power from the power transmitting unit 110 (110a, 110b) when the car 102 stops at the positions of the stop floors 108a and 108c. The power receiving unit 111 receives electric power by facing the power transmitting unit 110 (110a, 110b). The power transmission unit 110 and the power reception unit 111 transmit electric power from the power transmission unit 110 to the power reception unit 111 by using, for example, an electromagnetic induction action. Further, a battery 112 for charging a part of the electric power received by the power receiving unit 111 is provided on the upper part of the car 102. The elevator device 100 is provided with a signal line 113 for grasping the state of the power transmission unit 110 (110a, 110b).
　エレベータ装置１００の通常運転時においては、乗りかご１０２は各停止階１０８ａ，１０８ｂ，１０８ｃの位置で停止する。乗りかご１０２が停止階１０８ａ，１０８ｃで停止した際、送電部１１０（１１０ａ，１１０ｂ）と受電部１１１が対向し、送電部１１０（１１０ａ，１１０ｂ）からの電力を受電部１１１で受電する。受電部１１１で受電した電力はバッテリ１１２に充電される。 During normal operation of the elevator device 100, the car 102 stops at the positions of the stop floors 108a, 108b, 108c. When the car 102 stops at the stop floors 108a and 108c, the power transmission unit 110 (110a, 110b) and the power reception unit 111 face each other, and the power from the power transmission unit 110 (110a, 110b) is received by the power reception unit 111. The electric power received by the power receiving unit 111 is charged to the battery 112.
　エレベータ装置１００においては、点検、部品交換といった保守が行われる。保守を行うにあたっては、通常運転モードから保守運転モードに切り替えて実行される。保守運転モードにおいては、図１に破線で示すように乗りかご１０２’が停止階１０８ｃからずれた位置で停止する場合がある。この状態では、送電部１１０ｂと受電部１１１は対向しないので、受電部１１１は電力を受電できず、専らバッテリ１１２に充電された電力を頼りに保守作業を行う。バッテリ１１２の充電量が不足している場合、保守作業中の機器の動作ができなくなり、保守作業を中断せざるを得なかった。これを防止するための手段について以下説明する。


　図２は、本発明の実施例に係るエレベータ制御装置のブロック構成図である。図２において、エレベータ制御装置１０７は、保守員の操作によって保守信号を送信する保守信号送信部２０１と、保守信号送信部２０１からの保守信号を受信する保守信号受信部２０２と、エレベータの各種状態を監視するエレベータ状態監視部２０３と、乗りかご１０２に搭載されたバッテリ１１２の状態を診断するバッテリ状態診断部２０４と、バッテリ状態診断部２０４の診断に応じて乗りかご１０２を送電部１１０（１１０ａ，１１０ｂ）が設置された停止階１０８ａ，１０８ｃへ移動させる給電可能階決定部２０５と、乗りかご１０２の戸開閉に関する制御と案内放送を制御する戸開閉／放送制御部２０６と、給電可能階で乗りかご１０２に搭載されたバッテリ１１２の充電を制御する充電制御部２０７と、送電部１１０（１１０ａ，１１０ｂ）が設置された停止階１０８ａ，１０８ｃで乗りかご１０２が停止した状態において、バッテリ１１２の充電状態を判定し、通常運転モードから保守運転モードへの切り替え判定を行う充電状態判定部２０８と、保守運転モード切替プログラムなどを格納した記憶部２０９と、この保守運転モード切替プログラムに基づいて各部を制御する制御部２１０などを備えている。 Maintenance such as inspection and parts replacement is performed on the elevator device 100. When performing maintenance, the normal operation mode is switched to the maintenance operation mode. In the maintenance operation mode, as shown by the broken line in FIG. 1, the car 102'may stop at a position deviated from the stop floor 108c. In this state, since the power transmission unit 110b and the power reception unit 111 do not face each other, the power reception unit 111 cannot receive electric power, and the maintenance work is performed exclusively by relying on the electric power charged in the battery 112. When the charge amount of the battery 112 was insufficient, the equipment during the maintenance work could not be operated, and the maintenance work had to be interrupted. The means for preventing this will be described below.


FIG. 2 is a block configuration diagram of an elevator control device according to an embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 2, the elevator control device 107 includes a maintenance signal transmitting unit 201 that transmits a maintenance signal by the operation of a maintenance worker, a maintenance signal receiving unit 202 that receives a maintenance signal from the maintenance signal transmitting unit 201, and various states of the elevator. The elevator status monitoring unit 203 for monitoring the vehicle, the battery status diagnosis unit 204 for diagnosing the status of the battery 112 mounted on the car 102, and the power transmission unit 110 (110a) for the vehicle 102 according to the diagnosis of the battery status diagnosis unit 204. , 110b) are installed on the stop floors 108a and 108c, the power supplyable floor determination unit 205, the door opening / closing / broadcasting control unit 206 that controls the door opening / closing of the car 102 and the guidance broadcast, and the power supply available floor. When the car 102 is stopped on the stop floors 108a and 108c where the charge control unit 207 for controlling the charging of the battery 112 mounted on the car 102 and the power transmission units 110 (110a and 110b) are installed, the battery 112 The charging state determination unit 208 that determines the charging state and determines the switching from the normal operation mode to the maintenance operation mode, the storage unit 209 that stores the maintenance operation mode switching program, and each unit based on this maintenance operation mode switching program. A control unit 210 or the like for controlling the above is provided.
　バッテリ状態診断部２０４は、保守信号を検出したときにバッテリ１１２が保守運転モードに切り替え可能かどうかを判定する。給電可能階決定部２０５は、バッテリ状態診断部２０４によってバッテリ１１２が保守運転モードに切り替え可能な状態でないと判定されたとき、乗りかご１０２を送電部１１０（１１０ａ，１１０ｂ）が設置された停止階１０８ａ，１０８ｃへ移動させる。 The battery status diagnosis unit 204 determines whether or not the battery 112 can be switched to the maintenance operation mode when the maintenance signal is detected. When the battery status diagnosis unit 204 determines that the battery 112 is not in a state where it can be switched to the maintenance operation mode, the power supply available floor determination unit 205 sets the car 102 to the stop floor on which the power transmission unit 110 (110a, 110b) is installed. Move to 108a and 108c.
　図３は、本発明の実施例に係るエレベータ装置の処理動作を示すフローチャートである。 FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing the processing operation of the elevator device according to the embodiment of the present invention.
　ステップＳ３０１において、保守員が通常運転モードから保守運転モードに切り替えるために機械式スイッチの切替操作による機械的な保守信号、または保守ツールを通して切り替えのためのソフト的な保守信号を送信する操作を行うと、保守信号送信部２０１から保守信号受信部２０２へ信号が送信される。この信号を受信した保守信号受信部２０２は、エレベータ状態監視部２０３が所持している各種信号を使用しながらバッテリ状態診断部２０４に動作信号を与える。 In step S301, the maintenance personnel performs an operation of transmitting a mechanical maintenance signal by switching the mechanical switch or a soft maintenance signal for switching through the maintenance tool in order to switch from the normal operation mode to the maintenance operation mode. Then, a signal is transmitted from the maintenance signal transmitting unit 201 to the maintenance signal receiving unit 202. The maintenance signal receiving unit 202 that has received this signal gives an operation signal to the battery condition diagnosis unit 204 while using various signals possessed by the elevator condition monitoring unit 203.
　ステップＳ３０２において、バッテリ状態診断部２０４は、乗りかご１０２に搭載されているバッテリ１１２が保守運転モードに切替可能なバッテリ状態か否かを判定する。その結果、保守運転モードに切替可能なバッテリ状態（ステップＳ３０２のＹＥＳ）であれば、ステップＳ３０９に移行し、直ちに保守運転モードに切り替えを行う。 In step S302, the battery condition diagnosis unit 204 determines whether or not the battery 112 mounted on the car 102 is in a battery state capable of switching to the maintenance operation mode. As a result, if the battery state is such that the maintenance operation mode can be switched (YES in step S302), the process proceeds to step S309 and the maintenance operation mode is immediately switched.
　ステップＳ３０２において、バッテリ状態診断部２０４が保守運転モードに切替可能なバッテリ状態でないと判断した場合（ステップＳ３０２のＮＯ）、バッテリ充電のために乗りかご１０２を給電可能階（停止階１０８ａ，１０８ｃ）へ移動する準備を始める。この際、乗りかご１０２に乗客が乗りこんで閉じ込めが発生することがないよう、エレベータ制御装置１０７には乗りかご１０２の戸閉完了検出部（図示せず）を備え、戸の開閉状態を検出する。 In step S302, when the battery condition diagnosis unit 204 determines that the battery state is not switchable to the maintenance operation mode (NO in step S302), the car 102 can be supplied with power for battery charging (stop floors 108a, 108c). Start preparing to move to. At this time, the elevator control device 107 is provided with a door closing completion detection unit (not shown) of the car 102 to detect the open / closed state of the door so that passengers do not get into the car 102 and confine it. ..
　ステップＳ３０３において、戸閉完了検出部がエレベータの乗りかご１０２が停止している状態で、かつ戸閉が完了していることを検出する（ステップＳ３０３のＹＥＳ）と、ステップＳ３０４において、給電可能階決定部２０５はエレベータ状態監視部２０３からの情報に基づいて現在位置データや給電可能階データを用いて最寄の給電可能階（停止階１０８ａまたは停止階１０８ｃ）を決定する。 In step S303, when the door closing completion detection unit detects that the elevator car 102 is stopped and the door closing is completed (YES in step S303), in step S304, power can be supplied. The determination unit 205 determines the nearest power supply available floor (stop floor 108a or stop floor 108c) using the current position data and power supply available floor data based on the information from the elevator status monitoring unit 203.
　乗りかご１０２を給電可能階（停止階１０８ａまたは停止階１０８ｃ）へ移動させる際、ステップＳ３０５において、平常運転モード判定部（図示せず）によって、平常運転モードによる運転が可能か否かを判定する。平常運転モードとはエレベータに故障が発生していない状態で運転されているモードである。 When moving the car 102 to the power supply available floor (stop floor 108a or stop floor 108c), in step S305, the normal operation mode determination unit (not shown) determines whether or not the operation in the normal operation mode is possible. .. The normal operation mode is a mode in which the elevator is operated in a state where no failure has occurred.
　ステップＳ３０６において、エレベータが平常運転モードによる移動が可能であれば、戸開閉／放送制御部２０６は乗りかご１０２からの降車を促す案内を行う。戸開閉／放送制御部２０６は、乗りかご１０２内に乗客が取り残されるのを回避するために、乗りかご１０２から直ちに降りるよう音声等を利用して乗客にアナウンスする。 In step S306, if the elevator can be moved in the normal operation mode, the door opening / closing / broadcasting control unit 206 provides guidance for prompting the vehicle to disembark from the car 102. The door opening / closing / broadcasting control unit 206 announces to the passengers by using voice or the like to immediately get off the car 102 in order to prevent the passengers from being left behind in the car 102.
　戸開閉／放送制御部２０６にてかご移動案内を行った後、ステップＳ３０７において、乗りかご１０２を決定した給電可能階へ高速運転で移動する。 After the door opening / closing / broadcasting control unit 206 guides the car movement, in step S307, the car 102 is moved to the determined floor where power can be supplied at high speed.
　給電可能階（停止階１０８ａまたは停止階１０８ｃ）では充電制御部２０７によってバッテリの充電が開始され、また充電状態が監視される。その後、ステップＳ３０８において、充電制御部２０７は、例えば予め設定された所定時間内にバッテリが規定値以上の充電状態になり、保守運転モードに切り替えられる状態になったかどうかを判定する。その結果、バッテリの蓄電状態が良好（ステップＳ３０８のＹＥＳ）であれば、ステップＳ３０９において保守運転モードに切り替えが行われる。 On the power supply floor (stop floor 108a or stop floor 108c), the charge control unit 207 starts charging the battery and monitors the charging status. After that, in step S308, the charge control unit 207 determines whether or not the battery has been charged to a specified value or more within a predetermined time set in advance and is in a state of being switched to the maintenance operation mode. As a result, if the storage state of the battery is good (YES in step S308), the maintenance operation mode is switched in step S309.
　上述したように本実施例では、エレベータ制御装置１０７が保守運転モードへの切替信号を受けたとき、直ちに切替を行うのではなく、一旦、バッテリ状態診断部２０４により乗りかご１０２に搭載されているバッテリ１１２が保守運転モードに切替可能なバッテリ状態か否かを判定するようにしている。そして、本実施例では、バッテリの充電量が少なく、バッテリ状態が望ましくない状態でも、直ちに保守運転モードに切り替えるのではなく、バッテリ状態診断部２０４によって判定した結果、バッテリ状態が望ましくない状態であれば給電可能階（停止階１０８ａまたは停止階１０８ｃ）へと乗りかご１０８を移動させ、バッテリ１１２の充電を行ってから保守運転モードに切り替えることができる。 As described above, in the present embodiment, when the elevator control device 107 receives the switching signal to the maintenance operation mode, the elevator control device 107 is temporarily mounted on the car 102 by the battery condition diagnosis unit 204 instead of switching immediately. It is determined whether or not the battery 112 is in a battery state capable of switching to the maintenance operation mode. Then, in this embodiment, even if the battery charge amount is low and the battery state is undesired, the battery state is not desirable as a result of determination by the battery state diagnosis unit 204 instead of immediately switching to the maintenance operation mode. For example, the car 108 can be moved to the power supply available floor (stop floor 108a or stop floor 108c), the battery 112 can be charged, and then the maintenance operation mode can be switched.
　本実施例によれば、効率的な保守運転方法を実現でき、保守作業性を向上することができる。また、このバッテリ状態診断部２０４による判定をできるだけ早い段階で実施するようにしているため、バッテリ状態が良好であればそのまま保守運転モードに移行することができる。 According to this embodiment, an efficient maintenance operation method can be realized and maintenance workability can be improved. Further, since the determination by the battery condition diagnosis unit 204 is performed at the earliest possible stage, if the battery condition is good, the maintenance operation mode can be shifted as it is.
　一方、ステップＳ３０３において、戸閉完了検出部によって戸閉が完了していないと判定された場合、ステップＳ３１０において、ソフト的な保守信号による保守運転モードへの切り替えが可能かどうかの判定が行われる。これは、ソフト信号による保守の場合、乗りかご１０２内の状況確認ができていないので、乗客が乗っていた場合、乗りかご１０２内に閉じ込められてしまうのを防止するために行う処理であり、戸開中の状態においてはソフト信号による保守を受け付けないようにしている。ステップＳ３１０においてソフト信号による保守運転モードの切り替えを受け付けた時（ステップＳ３１０のＹＥＳ）、ステップＳ３１２にてソフト信号をリセットし、終了とする。 On the other hand, if it is determined in step S303 that the door closing is not completed by the door closing completion detection unit, it is determined in step S310 whether or not it is possible to switch to the maintenance operation mode by a soft maintenance signal. .. This is a process performed to prevent the passengers from being trapped in the car 102 when the passengers are in the car 102 because the situation in the car 102 cannot be confirmed in the case of maintenance by the soft signal. When the door is open, maintenance by soft signal is not accepted. When the switching of the maintenance operation mode by the soft signal is accepted in step S310 (YES in step S310), the soft signal is reset in step S312 to end the process.
　これに対し、ステップＳ３１０において戸閉完了検出部がソフト信号による保守ではなく、他の要因による戸開を検出したと判断した場合、戸開閉／放送制御部２０６はステップＳ３１１において乗りかご１０２内の閉じ込め発生を防止するために戸閉案内を行った後に戸閉動作を行う。その後、ステップＳ３０３に戻り、上述した戸閉完了検出部によって戸閉完了が監視される。 On the other hand, if it is determined in step S310 that the door closing completion detection unit has detected the door opening due to other factors instead of the maintenance by the soft signal, the door opening / closing / broadcasting control unit 206 is in the car 102 in step S311. In order to prevent the occurrence of confinement, the door closing operation is performed after the door closing guidance is performed. After that, the process returns to step S303, and the completion of door closing is monitored by the above-mentioned door closing completion detection unit.
　また、上述したステップＳ３０５において、平常運転モードでないと判定された場合（ステップＳ３０５のＮＯ）、平常運転モード判定部はステップＳ３１３において、エレベータは起動可能かを判定する。その結果、エレベータは起動可能である場合（ステップＳ３１３のＹＥＳ）、戸開閉／放送制御部２０６はステップＳ３１４において、乗りかご１０２の移動案内を行った後、ステップＳ３１５で乗りかご１０２を給電可能階へ低速運転によって移動する。つまり、平常運転モード判定部はステップＳ３１３において、その状態は平常運転モードではないものの何等かのトラブルにより止まっている状態で、かつ、重要部分の故障ではないと判断し、乗りかご１０２を低速運転によって給電可能階へと移動させる。 Further, when it is determined in step S305 described above that the mode is not the normal operation mode (NO in step S305), the normal operation mode determination unit determines in step S313 whether the elevator can be started. As a result, when the elevator can be started (YES in step S313), the door opening / closing / broadcasting control unit 206 guides the movement of the car 102 in step S314, and then in step S315, the car 102 can be supplied with power. Move by low speed operation. That is, in step S313, the normal operation mode determination unit determines that the state is not the normal operation mode but is stopped due to some trouble, and that it is not a failure of an important part, and the car 102 is operated at low speed. Move to the floor where power can be supplied.
　しかし、平常運転モード判定部がステップＳ３１３において、例えば重要部分の故障であり、エレベータの起動が不可能と判定した場合（ステップＳ３１３のＮＯ）、ステップＳ３０９において保守運転モードに切り替える。 However, if the normal operation mode determination unit determines in step S313 that the elevator cannot be started due to, for example, a failure of an important part (NO in step S313), the mode is switched to the maintenance operation mode in step S309.
　こうしてステップＳ３０５において平常運転モード判定部による判定を行うため、乗りかご１０２を給電可能階へ高速運転で移動、または乗りかご１０２を給電可能階へ低速運転で移動、もしくは給電可能階へ移動せずに保守運転モードに切り替えることができ、状況に応じた効果的な選択が実行できる。 In this way, in step S305, since the determination is made by the normal operation mode determination unit, the car 102 is moved to the power supply floor at high speed, the car 102 is moved to the power supply floor at low speed, or the car 102 is not moved to the power supply floor. It is possible to switch to the maintenance operation mode and make effective selection according to the situation.
　さらに、ステップＳ３０８において、予め設定された所定時間内に規定値以上の蓄電状態にならなかった場合（ステップＳ３０８のＮＯ）は、保守員による乗りかご１０２の移動はできないが、通常の呼びにも応答しないモードであるから、ステップＳ３１６において保守待機モードで充電を継続する。 Further, in step S308, if the electricity storage state does not reach the specified value or more within the preset predetermined time (NO in step S308), the maintenance staff cannot move the car 102, but it can be called normally. Since it is a mode that does not respond, charging is continued in the maintenance standby mode in step S316.
　上述したように、従来のテールコードレスエレベータ装置では、保守運転モードに切り替えるとき、バッテリ充電状態の監視または充電については特に考慮されていなかったが、本実施例ではステップＳ３０２においてバッテリ１１２の状態を診断するバッテリ状態診断部２０４を追加している。このため、バッテリ状態が望ましくない状態で直ちに保守運転モードに切り替えるのではなく、バッテリ状態診断部２０４によって良否を判定し、バッテリ状態が望ましくない状態では給電可能階へと移動させてバッテリ１１２の充電を行ってから保守運転モードに切り替えることができるようになる。 As described above, in the conventional tail cordless elevator device, when switching to the maintenance operation mode, monitoring or charging of the battery charge state is not particularly considered, but in this embodiment, the state of the battery 112 is diagnosed in step S302. The battery condition diagnosis unit 204 is added. Therefore, instead of immediately switching to the maintenance operation mode when the battery state is undesired, the battery condition diagnosis unit 204 determines the quality, and when the battery state is undesired, the battery 112 is charged by moving to a floor where power can be supplied. You will be able to switch to the maintenance operation mode after performing.
　またステップＳ３０３において戸閉完了検出部によって戸閉が監視されるため、保守員の閉じ込めを防止しながら効率的な保守運転方法を実現することができる。 Further, since the door closing is monitored by the door closing completion detection unit in step S303, an efficient maintenance operation method can be realized while preventing the maintenance staff from being trapped.
　長行程エレベータ装置におけるテールコードは、質量が増大することによりマシン軸重の増加やケーブルの暴れへの対応など、システムへの負担が大きくなる。そこでエレベータ制御装置１０７と乗りかご１０２間の信号授受は無線通信化によって行い、また乗りかご１０２の機器への電源供給については、乗りかご１０２にバッテリと充電手段を備え、給電可能階に設置された給電装置によって停止中に充電を非接触で行いながら、エレベータ装置を運行させることによって、テールコード自体を削減することができる。 The tail code in a long-stroke elevator device increases the load on the system, such as the increase in machine axle load and the response to cable rampage due to the increase in mass. Therefore, signals are sent and received between the elevator control device 107 and the car 102 by wireless communication, and the power supply to the equipment of the car 102 is provided on the floor where the car 102 is equipped with a battery and a charging means. The tail code itself can be reduced by operating the elevator device while non-contact charging is performed while the power supply device is stopped.
　しかし、バッテリ状態によって保守運転モードでの制約が生じてしまうが、上述したようにこの問題を解決することができる。 However, there are restrictions in the maintenance operation mode depending on the battery status, but as mentioned above, this problem can be solved.
　さらに、乗りかごの給電可能階への移動に先立って戸開閉／放送制御部２０６によって行うようにしているため、不本意な閉じ込めを既存の案内放送を活用して簡単に防止することができる。 Furthermore, since the door opening / closing / broadcasting control unit 206 is used to move the car to the floor where power can be supplied, unintentional confinement can be easily prevented by utilizing the existing guidance broadcasting.
　また、本実施例においては、乗りかごに搭載したバッテリの状態を診断するバッテリ状態診断部２０４を備え、保守運転モードへの切り替え時にバッテリ状態診断部２０４でバッテリ状態を確認するものとして説明したが、適当な間隔でバッテリ容量をエレベータ状態監視部２０３側に送信して監視し、保守運転モードへの切り替え時のタイミングで監視結果を取り出して判定することもできる。 Further, in this embodiment, the battery status diagnosis unit 204 for diagnosing the status of the battery mounted in the car is provided, and the battery status diagnosis unit 204 confirms the battery status when switching to the maintenance operation mode. , The battery capacity can be transmitted to the elevator status monitoring unit 203 side at appropriate intervals for monitoring, and the monitoring result can be taken out and judged at the timing of switching to the maintenance operation mode.
　いずれにしても、上述したテールコードレスエレベータ装置によれば、バッテリ状態診断部２０４により、保守運転モードへの切り替えを許可したり制限したりして、保守員の閉じ込めや効率低下を防止することができる。 In any case, according to the tail cordless elevator device described above, the battery condition diagnostic unit 204 can allow or limit the switching to the maintenance operation mode to prevent the maintenance personnel from being trapped or the efficiency is reduced. it can.
　また、ステップＳ３０２でバッテリ状態診断部２０４による判定を行っているため、バッテリ１１２の充電状態が不十分な場合でも、規定条件以内つまり給電可能階からの運転１回のみで、経過時間１０分以下等であれば、操作階で保守運転モードへの切替えを許可することも可能であり、利便性を維持することができる。さらに、保守運転モードに操作した階が給電可能階以外の場合、給電可能階まで移動後に保守運転モードへ切り替え可能とすることで、保守効率低下を防止することもできる。ただし、バッテリ充電状態が不適切な場合は、状態によっては起動できない故障の可能性があるため、起動不可の故障であれば操作階で保守運転モードへ切り替える。 Further, since the determination is made by the battery status diagnosis unit 204 in step S302, even if the charge status of the battery 112 is insufficient, the elapsed time is 10 minutes or less within the specified conditions, that is, only one operation from the floor where power can be supplied. If so, it is possible to allow switching to the maintenance operation mode on the operation floor, and convenience can be maintained. Further, when the floor operated in the maintenance operation mode is other than the floor on which power can be supplied, it is possible to switch to the maintenance operation mode after moving to the floor where power can be supplied, thereby preventing a decrease in maintenance efficiency. However, if the battery charge state is inappropriate, there is a possibility of a failure that cannot be started depending on the state, so if the failure cannot be started, switch to the maintenance operation mode on the operation floor.
　以上説明したように本発明は、保守信号を検出したとき保守運転モードに切り替え可能なバッテリ状態かどうかを判定して保守運転モードに切り替えるバッテリ状態診断部２０４と、バッテリ状態診断部２０４によって保守運転モードに切り替え可能なバッテリ状態でないと判定されたとき乗りかごを給電可能階へと移動する給電可能階決定部２０５と、給電可能階決定部２０５による給電可能階での蓄電状態を判定して保守運転モードに切り替えを判定する充電状態判定部２０８とを備えたことを特徴とする。 As described above, the present invention is maintained by the battery condition diagnosis unit 204 and the battery condition diagnosis unit 204, which determine whether the battery state can be switched to the maintenance operation mode when the maintenance signal is detected and switch to the maintenance operation mode. When it is determined that the battery is not in a state where the battery can be switched to the mode, the power supply possible floor determination unit 205 that moves the car to the power supply available floor and the power supply possible floor determination unit 205 determine and maintain the power storage state on the power supply available floor. It is characterized by including a charging state determination unit 208 for determining switching to an operation mode.
　このような構成によれば、バッテリ状態が望ましくない状態で直ちに保守運転モードに切り替えるのではなく、バッテリ状態診断部２０４によって状態を判定し、バッテリ状態が望ましくない状態では給電可能階へと移動させて給電を行ってから保守運転モードに切り替えることができるようになる。 According to such a configuration, instead of immediately switching to the maintenance operation mode when the battery state is undesired, the battery state diagnosis unit 204 determines the state, and when the battery state is undesired, it is moved to the power supply available floor. It will be possible to switch to the maintenance operation mode after supplying power.
　また上述の構成に加えて、バッテリ状態診断部２０４によって保守運転モードに切り替え可能なバッテリ状態でないと判定されたとき、平常運転モードか否かを判定する平常運転モード判定部を備えた。 Further, in addition to the above configuration, a normal operation mode determination unit for determining whether or not the normal operation mode is provided when the battery condition diagnosis unit 204 determines that the battery state is not switchable to the maintenance operation mode is provided.
　このような構成によれば、乗りかごを給電可能階へ高速運転で移動、または乗りかごを給電可能階へ低速運転で移動させるかを判別することができるので、状況に応じた効果的な選択が実行できる。 With such a configuration, it is possible to determine whether to move the car to the floor where power can be supplied at high speed or to the floor where the car can be powered at low speed, so that an effective selection according to the situation can be made. Can be executed.
　尚、本発明は、上述した実施例に限定するものではなく、様々な変形例が含まれる。例えば、上述した実施例は本発明を分かり易く説明するために詳細に説明したものであり、必ずしも説明した全ての構成を備えるものに限定するものではない。またある実施例の構成の一部を他の実施例の構成に置き換えることが可能であり、また、ある実施例の構成に他の実施例の構成を加えることも可能である。また、各実施例の構成の一部について、他の構成の追加、削除、置換をすることが可能である。 The present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned examples, and includes various modifications. For example, the above-described examples have been described in detail in order to explain the present invention in an easy-to-understand manner, and are not necessarily limited to those having all the described configurations. It is also possible to replace a part of the configuration of one embodiment with the configuration of another embodiment, and it is also possible to add the configuration of another embodiment to the configuration of one embodiment.
