HK1159056B - Call input device for an elevator - Google Patents

Description

The invention concerns a call-in device in the sense of the concept of independent patent claim.

It is known that an elevator with a lift-cab is used to transport passengers between floors of a building. To this end, passengers make floor calls or cabin calls to the input devices on the floors or in the elevator cabins. In order to ensure that passengers with disabilities are treated equally, the European Standard 81-70 prescribes a disability-compatible push button. By pressing the disability-compatible push button, the elevator is put into a special operating mode. In this operating mode, elevator doors on the elevator networks or elevator cabins are opened or closed more slowly and passengers with disabilities receive feedback on the call via visible or audible signals.

EP1598298A1 shows an elevator with a cabin call input device in an elevator cabin. The cabin call input device has a touch screen, which is not EN81-70 compliant because it does not have a disabled push button.

As a solution complying with EN81-70, EP1598298A1 teaches the installation of a disabled push-button on the touch screen. One side of the disabled push-button is clearly recognizable by visually impaired people by Braille characters with a relief height of at least 0.8 mm. By pressing the disabled push-button with a pressure of 2.5N to 5.0N, an area of the touch screen below the disabled push-button is actuated and a hoot is generated.

The present invention is intended to develop this cabin call input device.

This task is solved by the invention in accordance with the distinguishing part of the independent patent claim.

Figures 1 and 2 show two examples of an elevator system in a building. The building has a larger number of floors S1 to S3 which are served by at least one 6.6' lifting cab. On each floor S1 to S3 a passenger can enter and exit the 6.6' lifting cab through at least one elevator door 11, 11', 12, 12'. In at least one S4' lift shaft, the 6.6' lifting cab is connected via at least one 8.8' lifting medium to a 7.7' counterweight. For the procedure of at least 6.6' and 7.7' lifting medium, the 8.8' lifting medium is moved by at least one 10.10' lifting drive at the end of the friction.Normally, at least one door drive 9,9' is located at the elevator cabin 6,6' and operates the elevator door 11, 11', 12, 12'. At the elevator door 11, 11', 12, 12', a distinction is made between a floor door 11, 11' located on each floor S1 to S3 and a cabin door 12, 12' of the elevator cabin 6, 6'. During a floor hold, the cabin door 12, 12' can be connected to the elevator door 11, 11' by mechanical coupling, so that the opening and closing of the cabin door 12, 12' and the elevator door 11, 11' occur simultaneously.According to Fig. 2 a lifting cabin 6 is arranged in a lift shaft S4. If the person is familiar with the present invention, he can construct a lifting system with more than three floors S1 to S3 or with more than one lifting cabin 6.6' per lift shaft S4, S4' or with a hydraulic drive or with a lifting drive on the lifting cabin or on the counterweight and, of course, a lifting system without counterweight.

At least one of the elevator controls 5, 5' shall have at least one processor and at least one computer-readable data storage device. At least one computer program device shall be loaded and executed from the computer-readable data storage device into the processor. The computer program device shall control the elevator drive 10, 10' and the door drive 9, 9'. At least one of the elevator controls 5, 5' shall have at least one adapter for at least one bus system 2' or at least one adapter for at least one signal line 14, 14' and at least one electrical power supply.

At least one call input device 1, 1 shall be located near a floor door 11, 11' or in an elevator cabin 6 respectively. The call input device 1, 1 shall be mounted on a building wall in the floor door area or shall be isolated in the floor door area of floors S1 to S3. At least one housing of the call input device 1, 1 shall contain at least one adapter for a bus system 2, 2', at least one input/output device in the form of a keypad 13, at least one tone receiver 15, at least one recognition device 18 for the recognition of at least one identification code and at least one electrical power supply. The call input device 1, 1 shall have at least one processor and at least one computer-readable data storage device. The computer-readable data storage device shall be loaded in the direction of the keypad 13 and the computer-readable data storage device 18 and at least one computer-readable data storage device shall be loaded in the direction of the keypad 13 and the computer-readable data storage device 18 respectively.

At least one destination control 4 shall have at least one processor, at least one computer-readable data storage, at least one adapter for a bus system 2 and at least one electrical power supply. According to Fig. 1, the destination control 4 shall be a stand-alone electronic unit in at least one separate housing, e.g. located on floor S3. The destination control 4 may also be an electronic insert, e.g. in the form of a circuit board, which is located in the housing of a call input device 1, 1 and a lift control 5, 5'.

The call input device 1, 1' and the destination call control 4 or the lift control 5, 5' communicate bidirectionally via a bus system 2, 2' such as a Universal Serial Bus (USB), Local Operating Network (LON), Modbus, Ethernet, etc. In the bus system 2, 2' communication is done according to a known protocol. According to Fig. 1 there are two call input devices 1, each per floor S1 to S3, communicating via the bus system 1' 2 with the destination call control 4. According to Fig. 2 there is one call input device 1 per floor S1 to S3 communicating via a bus system 2' with an elevator control 5 .2' clearly identifiable. The target control 4 and the lift control 5, 5' communicate bidirectionally over a signal line 14, 14'. According to Fig. 1, the target control 4 is communicatively connected to a lift control 5, 5' via one signal line 14, 14' each. The communication participants at the ends of the permanently activated signal lines 14, 14' are clearly identifiable. Knowing the present invention, the professional can combine the implementations of an elevator system according to Fig. 1 and 2 together, for example, such that a call control device 1, 1' is connected to several lift controls via a bus system 2' and a signal controller 4, 4' is connected to a lift controller 5, 5' respectively.5' is communicatively connected.

According to Fig. 1, the call input device 1, 1 in the bus system 2 transmits a call made by the passenger as a destination call to the destination call control 4. According to Fig. 2, the call input device 1 in the bus system 2' transmits a call made by the passenger as a floor call or as a cabin call to the elevator control 5. In a floor call, a lift cabin 6 is first made to the floor of the destination call input device 1. Only after the passenger has entered the elevator cabin 6, a cabin call is made to a destination call and the elevator cabin 6 is processed to this destination call. Therefore, when the call is already made to a destination call, a designation of a destination call is already obtained, so that the desired call cannot be optimized only in the destination call station 4 but also in the destination call station.

The call-in device 1, 1 shall identify a passenger identification code with the identification device 18. To this end, the passenger shall hold at least one identification code carrier with the stored identification code on the identification device 18. The identification code carrier shall be, for example, a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) card. The identification code shall be transmitted by radio to the identification device 18 and recognised by the identification device 18. A recognised identification code shall be assigned to at least one passenger profile by the call-in device 1, 1 and by the call-in control unit 4 respectively. The passenger profile shall provide at least one passenger profile with the stored identification code. The passenger profile shall be a pre-defined passenger information, or a pre-defined passenger information, or a pre-defined safety information, of the type of passenger or type of passenger, or a communication filter of the type of passenger or of the passenger, 64, 64, 64, 64, or 64, respectively.

The destination call control 4 shall determine at least the most favourable call allocation for a destination call. The most favourable call allocation shall be a journey with at least one lift cabin 6, 6' from a starting platform to a destination platform with the shortest possible waiting time or the shortest possible target time. The starting platform need not match the call input platform. Nor the destination platform need match the destination platform desired by the passenger according to the destination call. When assigning the most favourable call allocation to the lift cabin 6, 6' at least one start call signal and at least one destination call signal shall be generated and transmitted via the signals 14, 14' to the lift control adapter 5, 5' of this lift cabin 6, 6'.

The screen 13 is rectangular or circular in diameter. The screen 13 has a diameter of 5 cm and a thickness of 2 to 10 mm. The display is made of glass or impact-resistant plastic such as polyurethane, polypropylene, polyethylene, etc. A front side of the screen 13 is made of glass or impact-resistant plastic such as polyurethane, polypropylene, polyethylene. In the case of a resistive screen 13, electrical contact is made between two previously electrically insulated electrically conductive layers when the screen 13 is touched.The electrical resistance of this electrical contact can be detected by at least one sensor as a two-dimensional location signal via a location coordinate.On a capacitive touch screen 13, a change in the electric field adjacent to the display is detected by touching the screen.This electric field change can also be detected by at least one sensor as a two-dimensional location signal via a local coordinate.On an open key 13, a beam of light is interrupted when the touch screen 13 is touched.The position of the light beam unlock is reflected by at least one upper sensor as a two-dimensional location signal via a coordinate.The white waves of a touch screen 13 are reflected at the horizontal and vertical wavelengths of the 13th ultrasonic bar.This ultrasonic wave reflection can also be detected by at least one sensor as a two-dimensional location-resolution input signal via a location coordinate.

The functional indicators 16, 16' are pictograms or alphanumeric characters. The functional indicators 16, 16' are produced by at least one light element such as a liquid crystal display (LCD), light emitting display (LED) or organic light emitting display (OLED), etc. Each light element is controlled by computer program means and the number, size, colour and shape of the functional indicators 16, 16' is freely programmable. According to Fig. 3 a first functional indicator 16 is placed on a side area of the screen 13 and twelve other functional indicators 16' are placed on a side area of the screen 13 above the keyboard.Err1:Expecting ',' delimiter: line 1 column 321 (char 320)The first functional indicator 16' is touched and the second functional indicator 16' is touched and the second functional indicator 16' is touched and the second functional indicator 16' is touched and the first functional indicator 16' is touched and the first functional indicator 16' is touched and the first functional indicator 1 is touched, the lift is placed in a special mode of operation.until the call made by touching the additional functional indicator 16' is fully served. A floor call is fully served when the passenger has entered a lifting cabin 6, 6' in the departure-floor indicator; a cabin call or destination call is fully served when the elevator door 11, 11', 12, 12' in the departure-floor indicator has fully opened. Thus, if a first functional indicator 16 is touched at the same call input 1, 1 and then another functional indicator 16' is touched during the special operating mode, the call thus made shall be served in the special operating mode.

In the special operating mode, a passenger is transported through the lift system without any handicaps in the building. The handicap may be a disability of the passenger or a potential safety hazard to the passenger. In the simplest case, the first input signal binarily indicates whether the passenger is disabled or not or whether the passenger is a safety hazard or not.

The first input signal can be used to specify the type of disability, such as walking disability, visual disability, hearing disability, etc. The disability can be a physical disability or a mental disability. The passenger can move or orient themselves in the building only by using at least one disability-specific aid. A disability-specific aid is, for example, a wheelchair, a wheelchair, a crutch, a hearing aid, a sight aid, a blind cane, a blind dog, etc. It may also be that a severely disabled passenger can only move with the help of at least one disabled person's walker.

It is also possible to indicate with the first input signal whether the passenger with disability needs passive or active personal protection. The passenger can move around the building only using at least one personal protective equipment. A personal protective equipment is, for example, a spatial protection zone or a temporary protection zone or a personal protector. For example, a spatial protection zone or a temporary protection zone is created for the passenger with disability with as few additional passengers as possible in the lift cabin 6, 6'.

Accordingly, in the special operating mode, the call-in device 1, 1', the lift door 11, 11', 12, 12' and the lift cab 6, 6' shall be operated as follows: For a passenger with disability-specific aids, the elevator door closes at a particularly high delay and closes at a particularly slow rate.While in normal operating mode an elevator door closes at 11, 11', 12, 12' after a delay of two to twenty seconds and the elevator door 11, 11', 12, 12' takes about two seconds to close, the delay and closing time for a passenger with disability-specific aids is 10% to 50% higher.For a passenger with disability-specific aids, the elevator cabin closes at 6,While in normal operating mode the height difference between a floor of the 6.6' lift cabin and a threshold of the 11.11' lift door can be more than 10 mm, for a passenger with disability-specific aids a maximum height difference between the 6.6' lift cabin floor and the 11.11' lift door threshold of +/-10 mm is required in EN81-70.An analogue is a lift cabin 6.6' of 630kg load capacity, which in normal operating mode can accommodate up to eight passengers, with a passenger with disabled load, and an accompanying passenger or a passenger at risk of safety, and a personal protector.A passenger with personal protective equipment is transported from the lift entrance cabin 6.6' from the call-in stack directly to the target workstation.While the lift cabin 6.6' in normal operating mode carries one or more intermediate stacks, a passenger with personal protective equipment is transported from the target workstation without any personal protective equipment.

In order to enable the elevator to be switched to a specific mode of operation in accordance with EN81-70, at least one switch 3 shall be fitted to the call input 1, 1 according to Figures 3, 5, 6 and 9, a switch 3 shall be fitted to a lower area 1.1 of the call input 1, 1 outside the 13 keypad and protruding from this area 1.1 of the call input 1, 1 into a first input area 13.1 of the 13 keypad. Such placement of the switch 3 in a lower area 1.1 of the call input 1, 1 shall allow compliance with the maximum height of the switch 3 prescribed in EN81-70 of 1100 mm or 1200 mm above the floor of the switch switch 1, 1 to the floor of the lift, respectively.

The switch 3 is made of plastic material such as polyurethane, polypropylene, polyethylene, etc., or metal material such as aluminium, steel sheet, etc., or alloy material such as brass, bronze, etc. A front side of the switch 3 is visible to a passenger and can be directly touched by a passenger, for example, with a finger. For example, the front side of the switch is marked as having a pressure barrier by a wheelchair user's sign as EN 8701 or a pressure barrier marked as having a pressure barrier by at least EN 8701 or the front side of the switch is marked as having a pressure barrier with a barrier of at least 3 mm.

As shown in detail in Figures 5 to 8, the switch 3 in the first input area 13.1 of the switch screen 13 can be moved from a first non-shifting position to a second switching position under a pressure F of 2.5 N to 5.0 N. While the switch 3 in the first non-shifting position does not touch the switch screen 13, the switch 3 in the second switching position touches a first functional indicator 16 of the switch screen 13. Due to an elastic pre-tension of the switch material, the switch 3 moves automatically from the second non-shifting position to the first non-shifting position after the pressure force has been removed. For example, the switch 3 is designed so that the shift from the first non-shifting position to the second non-shifting position occurs within two seconds, or 35 seconds, before the switch switching position, and the switch 3 is automatically reversed from the first position to the second position, with a self-shifting motion of up to 65 seconds.

On the keyboard 13 or the speaker 15 each input signal or passenger information read is visually or audibly confirmed by at least one receipt signal 17 which gives the passenger an optical or audible receipt of the touch of a functional indicator 16, 16' of the keyboard 13. The receipt signal 17 on the keyboard 13 is a pictogram or alphanumeric sequence of characters and is generated by at least one light element such as a liquid crystal display (LCD), light emitting display (LED) or organic light emitting display (OLED), etc. Each light element is controlled by a computer program and the number, size, shape and colour of the receipt signal 17 on the keyboard 13 is freely programmable.According to Figures 9 and 10, several receiving signals 17 are arranged in a central area of the keyboard 13. The receiving signal 17 by the speaker 15 is, for example, a sound sequence or melody or synthetic speech output. Each receiving signal 17 receives in a unique way an input signal correlated with a functional indicator 16, 16'. If the present invention is known, the receiving signal can of course also be issued on another, several spatially separated receiving device of the elevator system, the call-in device 1. One such other output device is, for example, a cabin status indicator above the elevator floor 11, 11' or a floor indicator within the elevator floor 6, 6' or 17' respectively.Err1:Expecting ',' delimiter: line 1 column 893 (char 892)Request for the language of communication desired by the passenger.

At least one programming station 100 is located on a floor S1 at the entrance to the building at a reception desk or a household administration, as shown in Figure 1, and at least one programming station 100 is located on a floor S3 in a passenger's apartment, as shown in Figure 2. The programming station 100 may also be a mobile computer such as a smartphone, a mobile phone, etc. The programming station 100 has at least one processor, at least one computer-readable data storage device, at least one adapter for the bus system 2, 2' and at least one electrical power supply. At least one computer-readable data program is located on the computer-readable data storage device 1 in the processor, or loading into the processor program 1, or the receiving device 1 in the receiving device 1 in the receiving device 1 The receiving device 1 / the receiving device 2 / the receiving device 4 / the receiving device 4 / the receiving device 4 / the receiving device 4 / the receiving device 4 / the receiving device 4 / the receiving device 4 / the receiving device 4 / the receiving device 4 / the receiving device 4 / the receiving device 4 are stored in a computer in the direction of the destination of the call and the receiving device 1 / the receiving device 1 / the receiving device 4 / the receiving device 4 / the receiving device 1 or the receiving device 4 / the receiving device 1 or the receiving device 4 are located in the direction of the destination of the call, or the receiving device 1 or the receiving device 4 or the receiving device 1 or the receiving device 1 or the receiving device 1 or the receiving device 1 or the receiving device 2 in the destination of the receiving device.

A first input area 13.1 of the screen 13 may be used multiple times, so that the passenger can select one of several functional indicators 16, 16' or a passenger information indicator according to the passenger profile, over the time period of the touch of the first input area 13.1 of the screen 13 by the switch 3. Thus, when a first functional indicator 16 is touched in a first input area 13.1, a first input signal is generated and the lift is put into a special operating mode. For example, the switch 3 is operated and touches a first functional indicator 16 in a switching position in the first input area 13.1, which brings the lift into a special operating mode.When the first input area 13.1 is continuously touched, at least one discharge signal 17 is generated in the special operating mode on the keyboard 13 or the tongue monitor 15 respectively. Thus, a first receipt signal 17 confirms the switchover of the elevator system to the special operating mode; a second receipt signal 17 is correlated with the further input signal corresponding to the statistically most frequent call input from this call input source; a third receipt signal 17 is correlated with the further input signal corresponding to the statistically second most frequent call input from this call input source.If the third dispatch signal 17 is returned to the non-switching position when the 3rd dispatch signal 17 is issued, the next input signal is selected, which is the second most statistically frequent call from this call input.Thus, a first dispatch signal 17 confirms the switchover of the lift to the special operating mode.If the passenger has transmitted an identification code to the 1st dispatch signal, a second dispatch signal 17 is correlated with a predefined destination call according to the passenger profile.After the second dispatch signal 17 is issued, the 3rd dispatch signal is returned to the non-switching position and selected according to the predefined destination passenger profile.

A further input area 13.2 of the 13 screen can also be touched several times. The passenger may select one of several functional indicators 16' or a passenger information indicator according to the passenger profile during the time of touching at least one additional input area 13.2 of the 13 screen. If the passenger continues to touch, at least one receipt signal is issued on the 13 screen or the 15 tongue screen. 17 At the end of the continuous touch of the additional input area 13.2 of the 13 screen, at least one corresponding receipt signal is selected from the 17 corresponding receipt. If the passenger has transmitted an identification code to the 1 call centre, at the end of the continuous touch, at least one corresponding receipt signal from the 13 screen will be transmitted to the 13 last receipt.
