Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent an ID code including an automatic opening / closing command of another switching device control system from being received and registered during ID code registration work.
A receiving unit registers a normal mode in which a control command according to a control code included in a transmission signal from a transmission unit is issued to the switchgear and an ID code included in the transmission signal without issuing a control command. In the registration mode, the ID code included in the transmission signal is registered and the control code is automatically registered on condition that the control code of the transmission signal does not include an automatic opening / closing command. When an open / close command is included, the ID code included in the transmission signal is not registered.

Description

  The present invention relates to a switchgear control system in which a transmission signal wirelessly transmitted from a transmission unit is received by a reception unit, and the reception unit outputs a control command corresponding to the transmission signal.

Conventionally, there is a garage shutter device described in Patent Document 1 as this type of opening and closing device. According to this garage shutter device, when the vehicle engine is started, a signal is automatically wirelessly transmitted from the transmission unit (control side wireless device 3) at the time of delivery, and this transmission signal is transmitted to the reception unit (covered side) on the shutter device side. When it is received by the control side radio device), the shutter is opened by a command (automatic open / close command) included in the transmission signal, and the shutter is closed when the vehicle moves away. Further, at the time of warehousing, the radio wave transmitted from the transmitting unit of the car approaching the shutter device is received by the receiving unit, so that the shutter is automatically opened.
In such a shutter device, when a vehicle other than the user of the shutter device passes nearby, an ID code is assigned to each transmission unit so that the shutter does not open and close by a transmission signal transmitted by the transmission unit of the vehicle. The transmission unit transmits a transmission signal including the ID code and an automatic opening / closing command, and the transmission unit is distinguished by the ID code included in the transmission signal on the reception unit side, and is transmitted from a vehicle other than the user. The shutter is prevented from opening and closing by the transmitted signal.

By the way, according to the prior art, before using the shutter device for the first time, it is necessary to register the ID code of the transmitting unit in the receiving unit on the shutter device side. In addition, even when the transmitting unit fails, it is necessary to register the ID code of the new transmitting unit in the receiving unit on the shutter device side. In this registration operation, for example, the receiving unit is set to a state where the ID code can be registered (registration mode), and in this state, the ID code is transmitted from the transmitting unit, and this ID code is transmitted to the receiving unit side. Can be registered.
However, during the ID code registration operation described above, a vehicle equipped with another transmission unit passes near the reception unit, and a transmission signal including an ID code and an automatic opening / closing command is issued from the other transmission unit. In such a case, the receiving unit may register the ID code included in the transmission signal.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above-described conventional circumstances, and the problem is that an ID code including an automatic opening / closing command of another switching device control system is received and registered during ID code registration work. An object of the present invention is to provide a switchgear control system that can prevent such a situation.

  One means for solving the above-described problem includes a transmission unit having an operation switch and a reception unit that receives a transmission signal wirelessly transmitted from the transmission unit, and the reception unit opens and closes according to the transmission signal. When the power is turned on, the transmission unit transmits a transmission signal including a unique ID code of the transmission unit and a control code for controlling the switchgear. In addition, the control code includes an automatic opening / closing command for automatically closing and then closing the opening / closing device. When there is an operation on the operation switch, the control code is replaced with the automatic opening / closing command. The transmission signal is transmitted including a manual operation command corresponding to the operation of the operation switch, and the receiving unit issues a control command corresponding to a control code included in the transmission signal to the switching device. It is configured to be switched between a normal mode and a registration mode in which an ID code included in the transmission signal is registered without issuing the control command. In the registration mode, the automatic opening / closing command is included in the control code of the transmission signal. The ID code included in the transmission signal is registered on the condition that the transmission signal is not included, and the ID code included in the transmission signal is not registered when the automatic opening / closing command is included in the control code. It is characterized by.

  Since the present invention is configured as described above, it is possible to prevent an ID code including an automatic opening / closing command of another switching device control system from being received and registered during ID code registration work. be able to.

A first feature of the present embodiment includes a transmission unit having an operation switch, and a reception unit that receives a transmission signal wirelessly transmitted from the transmission unit, and the reception unit opens and closes according to the transmission signal. When the power is turned on, the transmission unit transmits a transmission signal including a unique ID code of the transmission unit and a control code for controlling the switchgear. In addition, the control code includes an automatic opening / closing command for automatically closing and then closing the opening / closing device. When there is an operation on the operation switch, the control code is replaced with the automatic opening / closing command. The transmission signal is transmitted including a manual operation command corresponding to the operation of the operation switch, and the reception unit issues a normal command to the switchgear according to a control code included in the transmission signal. And a registration mode for registering an ID code included in the transmission signal without issuing the control command. In the registration mode, the automatic opening / closing command is provided in the control code of the transmission signal. An ID code included in the transmission signal is registered on the condition that it is not included, and if the automatic opening / closing command is included in the control code, the ID code included in the transmission signal is not registered.
According to this configuration, for example, in a situation where a plurality of switchgear control systems including the first and second switchgear control systems are used, when the first switchgear control system is in the registration mode, Even if a transmission signal including an ID code and an automatic opening / closing command is issued from the transmission unit of the second switching device control system, the transmission signal is transmitted from the automatic switching command included in the transmission signal to the second switching device control system. It is possible to prevent the reception unit of the first switchgear control system from registering the ID code of the second switchgear control system. That is, it is possible to prevent an ID code including an automatic opening / closing command of another switching device control system from being received and registered during ID code registration work.

As a second feature, the control code includes an automatic opening / closing determination flag indicating whether or not the automatic opening / closing command is received, and the reception unit adds the control code to the control code according to the state of the automatic opening / closing determination flag. It is determined whether or not an automatic opening / closing command is included.
According to this configuration, it is possible to determine whether or not an automatic opening / closing command is included in the transmission signal with a simple configuration.

As a third feature, in the normal mode, on the condition that the ID code included in the transmission signal matches the ID code registered in advance, a control command corresponding to the control code is output to the switchgear, At this time, when the automatic opening / closing command is included in the control code, the control command outputs an opening command for opening the opening / closing device, on condition that the transmission signal is not received. A closing command for closing the switchgear is output.
According to this configuration, for example, when the opening / closing device control system is used as a garage shutter device, when the vehicle is released, the opening / closing device is opened by turning on the power when the engine is started, and the vehicle is moved away so that a transmission signal is not received. The opening / closing device can be closed as the vehicle closes, and when the vehicle enters the vehicle, the opening / closing device is opened as the transmission signal is received as the vehicle approaches, and transmission is performed by turning off the power when the engine is stopped. As the signal is no longer received, the switchgear can be closed.

As a fourth feature, the transmission unit is configured to be inserted into a cigarette lighter socket of a vehicle and supplied with power, and in the state of being inserted into the cigarette lighter socket, the operation switch is set to the cigarette lighter. Project to the front side of the socket.

Yes.

  The control circuit 33 is a signal transmitted from the transmission unit 10 and demodulated by the demodulation circuit 32 and other input signals (for example, the registration switch 35, the remote control device 20, the push button switch 1d, an obstacle sensing unit not shown, a sensor, etc. ) To output a control command for controlling the plurality of relays 34a, 34b, 34c and the like. The control circuit 33 is configured by, for example, a programmed logic circuit such as a microcomputer circuit or a sequencer, an electronic circuit, a wired logic circuit, or the like.

According to the illustrated example, the plurality of relays include an open relay 34a for rotating the opening / closing device 1b1 of the opening / closing device 1 in the opening direction, a closing relay 1b for rotating the opening / closing device 1b1 in the closing direction, and a brake device (not shown).

The electrical switch (not shown) is electrically wired so as to self-hold in an on state and to release the self-holding.

Further, the registration switch 35 changes the processing by the control circuit 33 from the normal mode to the registration mode when storing the ID code transmitted from the transmission unit 10 in the storage device 33a (for example, a non-volatile memory) in the control circuit 33. Switch to switch.
Here, the normal mode is a mode in which a control command according to a control code (see FIGS. 3 and 4) included in the transmission signal of the transmission unit 10 is issued to the switchgear 1.
The registration mode is a mode in which the ID code (see FIG. 3) included in the transmission signal is registered in the storage device 33a without issuing a control command.

  In FIG. 5, reference numeral 36 denotes a power supply circuit that supplies power to the control circuit 33. Reference numeral 36 a denotes a light emitting section that is turned on when power is supplied to the power supply circuit 36, reference numeral 32 a denotes a light emitting section that emits light when reception by the demodulation circuit 32, and reference numeral 33 b corresponds to the operation of the control circuit 33. The light emitting units that are turned on are configured by, for example, light emitting diodes.

  In addition, the opening / closing device 1 includes an opening / closing body 1a that slides and closes so as to partition a space, a storage portion 1b that stores and feeds the opening / closing body 1a on its opening direction side, and a lateral width direction of the opening / closing body 1a. A guide rail 1c that surrounds the end portion and guides in the opening / closing direction is provided, and a receiving unit 30 is provided in the storage unit 1b (see FIG. 1).

  The storage unit 1b includes a winding shaft (not shown) for winding and unwinding the opening / closing body 1a in a substantially rectangular parallelepiped storage case elongated in the width direction of the opening / closing body, and a chain and a sprocket. An opening / closing machine 1b1 that rotates and brakes via a power transmission means (not shown), a position detection means 1b2 that detects the opening / closing position of the opening / closing body 1a, and the receiver 30 described above. (See FIG. 1).

  The opening / closing machine 1b1 is obtained by appropriately improving an opening / closing machine having a structure disclosed in, for example, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 01-118084, and is supported by a stationary part via a bracket or the like. The opening / closing machine 1b1 includes a drive shaft that transmits a rotational force to the winding shaft, an electric motor that rotates the drive shaft, a brake device that restrains or releases the drive shaft, and the like. It is controlled by a control command output from 30 control circuits 33.

The position detection unit 1b2 may be configured to detect at least the fully closed position and a predetermined open position (for example, the fully open position) of the opening / closing body 1a. For example, the position detection unit 1b2 detects a change in the amount of rotation of the winding shaft or the opening / closing machine 1b1. What is necessary is just to set it as the structure using the proximity switch etc. which were provided in the guide rail 1c so that the encoder apparatus, the counter-type limit switch provided in the rotation part of the opening / closing machine 1b1, and the opening / closing body 1a may be detected.
The position detection unit 1 b 2 detects an open / close position (for example, a fully open position or a fully closed position) of the open / close body 1 a and inputs a detection signal to the control circuit 33.

  Reference numeral 1d in FIG. 1 is a wired push button switch provided as necessary, and inputs an open command, a stop command, and a close command to the control circuit 33 according to the button operation.

Next, the control operation by the switchgear control system will be described.
FIG. 8 shows processing by the control circuit 13 on the transmission unit 10 side.
In step 1, the control circuit 13 waits for the input of power, and proceeds to the next step 2 if there is a power input.
For example, when the ignition key of the car is turned on when the power switch 10b1 of the transmitter 10 attached to the cigarette lighter socket is on, the power of the cigarette lighter socket is supplied to the control circuit 13, and in step 1 above It is determined that there is power input.

  In the next step 2, the control circuit 13 transmits a transmission signal of the above format (see FIG. 3) including an automatic opening / closing command every predetermined time (for example, 5 seconds), and continues this intermittent transmission. More specifically, the transmission signal is a signal including a head code, an ID code, and a control code having an automatic opening / closing discrimination flag (the last bit according to an example of FIG. 4) “1”.

  In step 3, the LED of the notification unit 10b5 is continuously lit to notify that the automatic opening / closing command is being transmitted.

In step 4, it is determined whether or not there is no power input to the transmitter 10. If there is no power input, the process proceeds to the next step 5, and if not, the process jumps to step 7.
That is, when the ignition key of the vehicle is turned off or when the power switch 10b1 of the transmission unit 10 is turned off so that power is not supplied to the control circuit 13, the process proceeds to the next step 5.

  In step 5, transmission of the transmission signal (see step 2) including the automatic opening / closing command is stopped.

  In the next step 6, the LED of the notification unit 10b5 is turned off to notify that the automatic opening / closing command transmission has been stopped.

  That is, the intermittent transmission in the step 2 is continued if the power switch 10b1 is on and the vehicle ignition key is on, and the power switch 10b1 is turned off or the vehicle ignition key is turned on. It ends when turned off.

  In step 7, it is determined whether or not the operation switches 10 b 2, 10 b 3, and 10 b 4 are input. If there is an input, the process proceeds to the next step 8, and if not, the process returns to step 4.

  In the next step 8, transmission of the transmission signal (see step 2) including the automatic opening / closing command is stopped.

In the next step 9, a transmission signal of the above format (see FIG. 3) including a manual operation command is transmitted once.
More specifically, the transmission signal corresponds to a head code, an ID code, and a manual operation command (open command, stop command, or close command according to FIG. 4) by operating the operation switches 10b2, 10b3, and 10b4. And a control code with a bit to be set to “1”.

  In the next step 10, the LED of the notification unit 10b5 blinks only once to notify that the manual operation command has been transmitted.

  That is, according to steps 4 and 7 to 10, if the user operates any of the operation switches 10b2, 10b3 and 10b4 during the transmission of the transmission signal including the automatic opening / closing command, the automatic opening / closing command is transmitted. A manual operation command for stopping and manually operating the switchgear 1 is transmitted.

9 to 10 show processing by the control circuit 33 on the receiving unit 30 side.
In step 11, the control circuit 13 determines whether the registration switch 35 is on or off. If it is on, the control circuit 13 proceeds to the next step 12, and if not, jumps to step 21.

  In step 12, it is recognized as a registration mode. In step 12, if necessary, light emission by the light emitting unit 33b or signal sound transmission by a speaker (not shown) or the like may be performed to notify that the registration mode has been entered.

  In step 13, it is determined whether or not a transmission signal of the above format (see FIG. 3) has been received. If received, the process proceeds to the next step 14, and if not, the process jumps to step 16.

  In step 14, it is determined whether or not the automatic opening / closing determination flag (the last bit in the example of FIG. 4) is “0” from the control code included in the transmission signal. If not, the process jumps to step 16.

In step 15, the ID code included in the transmission signal is written in the storage device 33a, and the process proceeds to the next step 16.
That is, if it is determined from the control code included in the transmission signal that the automatic opening / closing command is not included, the ID code included in the transmission signal is written in the storage device 33a. Therefore, for example, even if a transmission signal including an ID code and an automatic opening / closing command is issued from another vehicle passing nearby, even if this transmission signal is received, the ID code included in this transmission signal is registered. Can be prevented.

In step 16, it is determined whether the registration switch 35 is on or off. If it is off, the process returns to step 11, and if it remains on, the process returns to step 13.
That is, if the registration switch 35 remains on in step 16, the process returns to step 13 so that the registration work can be redone.

  In step 21, the normal mode is recognized. In step 21, if necessary, light emission by the light emitting unit 33 b or signal sound transmission by a speaker (not shown) or the like may be performed to notify that the normal mode has been entered.

  In step 22, it is determined whether or not a transmission signal of the above format (see FIG. 3) has been received. If received, the process proceeds to the next step 23; otherwise, the process jumps to step 28d.

  In step 23, it is determined whether or not the ID code included in the transmission signal matches the ID code stored in advance in the storage device 33a of the receiving unit 30, and if so, the process proceeds to the next step 24a. Otherwise, the process jumps to step 28d.

  In step 24a, it is determined whether or not the control code included in the transmission signal indicates a stop command. If the control code indicates a stop command, the process proceeds to the next step 25a. Otherwise, the process proceeds to step 24b. Migrate processing.

  In step 25a, the stop relay 34c is operated, and the process returns to step 11 above. Therefore, when the opening / closing body 1a of the opening / closing device 1 is operating, the operation of the opening / closing body 1a is stopped.

  In step 24b, it is determined whether or not the control code included in the transmission signal indicates an opening command. If the control code indicates an opening command, the process proceeds to the next step 25b; The process proceeds to 24c.

  In step 25b, the open relay 34a is activated, and the process returns to step 11 above. Therefore, the opening / closing device 1 opens the opening / closing body 1a. The opening operation is stopped when the position detection unit 1b2 detects the fully opening of the opening / closing body 1a, when a stop operation is performed, or when an obstacle sensing device (not shown) is operated.

  In step 24c, it is determined whether or not the control code included in the transmission signal indicates a closing command. If the control code indicates a closing command, the process proceeds to the next step 25c; The processing is shifted to 24d.

  In step 25c, the closed relay 34b is activated, and the process returns to step 11 above. Therefore, the opening / closing device 1 performs the closing operation of the opening / closing body 1a. This closing operation is stopped when the position detection means 1b2 detects the fully closing of the opening / closing body 1a, when a stop operation is performed, or when an obstacle sensing device (not shown) is operated.

  In step 24d, it is determined whether the control code included in the transmission signal indicates an automatic opening / closing command (see FIG. 4). If the control code indicates an automatic opening / closing command, the process proceeds to the next step 25d. If not, the process proceeds to step 28d.

In step 25d, the open relay 34a is operated, and the process proceeds to step 26d. Therefore, the opening / closing device 1 opens the opening / closing body 1a. This opening operation is stopped when the position detecting means 1b2 detects that the opening / closing body 1a has reached a predetermined opening position, when a stop operation is performed, or when an obstacle sensing device (not shown) is operated. To do.
Here, the predetermined opening position may be, for example, a full opening position, but as another example, it may be a halfway opening position set in advance so that the automobile can pass through.

In step 26d, it waits until the transmission signal whose ID code matches in step 23 cannot be received for a predetermined time or longer (for example, 10 seconds or longer). If it cannot be received, the process proceeds to the next step 27d.
That is, when the car that has left the car leaves the receiving unit 30 and the transmission signal does not reach the receiving unit 30, or when the ignition key is turned off and the transmission of the transmission signal is interrupted, the process proceeds to step 27d. It is advanced.

  In step 27d, the closed relay 34b is activated, and the process returns to step 11 above. Therefore, the opening / closing device 1 performs the closing operation of the opening / closing body 1a. This closing operation is stopped when the position detection means 1b2 detects the fully closing of the opening / closing body 1a, when a stop operation is performed, or when an obstacle sensing device (not shown) is operated.

  In Step 28d, the process returns to Step 11 without outputting the control command to the open relay 34a, the closed relay 34b, and the stop relay 34c.

  That is, in the normal mode, when the transmission signal is received (step 22), the control code (see FIG. 4) is provided on condition that the ID code included in the transmission signal matches the ID code registered in advance (step 23). ) Is output to the switchgear (steps 24a to 24d, 25a to 25c), and when the control code at this time includes an automatic switch command, the switchgear is opened as the control command. An opening command for causing the switch to open is output (step 25d), and on the condition that the transmission signal is not received (step 26d), a closing command for closing the switchgear is output (step 27d).

Therefore, according to the switchgear control system having the above-described configuration, at the time of delivery, the switchgear 1 is opened by turning on the power of the transmission unit 10 when the ignition key of the vehicle is turned on (see FIGS. 6A to 6C). When the vehicle moves away and the transmission signal is not received for a predetermined time or longer (for example, 10 seconds or longer), the opening / closing device 1 is closed (see FIGS. 7D to 7E).
Further, at the time of warehousing, when the vehicle approaches the switchgear 1 and a transmission signal is received, the switchgear 1 is opened (refer to FIGS. 7A to 7C), and the ignition key is turned off. If the transmission signal is not received for a predetermined time or longer (for example, 10 seconds or longer) due to the power supply of the transmitter 10 being turned off, the opening / closing device 1 is closed.

  Further, for example, when the switchgear control system is in the registration mode (during registration work), a vehicle other than the user passes near the switchgear 1, and an ID code and an automatic switch command are sent from the transmission unit of the vehicle. Even if a transmission signal including the transmission signal is issued, since the transmission signal other than the user can be easily distinguished by including the automatic opening / closing command, the ID code included in the transmission signal other than the user is registered. Can be prevented.

When the transmitter 10 is inserted into the cigarette lighter socket, the power switch 10b1, the operation switches 10b2, 10b3, 10b4, and the notification unit 10b5 are exposed on the front side.
For this reason, for example, if the power switch 10b1 and the operation switches 10b2, 10b3, 10b4 are directed obliquely upward to the front, the notification unit 10b5 is directed obliquely downward to the front, and the transmission unit 10 is attached to the cigarette lighter socket, the transmission unit 10 The operability and visibility can be improved.
In addition, the transmission unit 10 can be rotated with respect to the cigarette lighter socket so that the power switch 10b1 and the operation switches 10b2, 10b3, and 10b4 are directed obliquely downward toward the front, and the notification unit 10b5 is directed obliquely upward toward the front. Such a mounting mode is useful from the viewpoint of preventing erroneous operation of the power switch 10b1 and the operation switches 10b2, 10b3, and 10b4.

  In addition, according to the said aspect, although the registration switch 35 which switches a normal mode and a registration mode was provided in the receiving part 30 side, as another example, the said mode is carried out by the combination operation by operation switch 10b2, 10b3, 10b4 of the transmission part 10. It is also possible to adopt a mode in which switching is performed, a mode in which the registration switch is provided on the transmission unit 10 side, or the like.

  Moreover, according to the said aspect, although the opening command, the stop command, the closing command, and the automatic opening / closing command were illustrated as the types of the control commands (see FIG. 4) included in the transmission signal, as another example, the control code is By appropriately setting, it is possible to include a control command for opening a small window for ventilation and lighting provided in the opening / closing body 1a and other control commands in the transmission signal.

  In addition, the notification unit 10b5 of the transmission unit 10 of the above-described mode is configured to emit light, but other examples of the notification unit 10b5 include a mode of emitting a signal sound, a melody sound, a voice, and the like by a speaker, It is possible to adopt a mode that emits both sound and sound.

  Further, in the control code illustrated in FIG. 4, two types of control commands (for example, an open command and a stop command) are not duplicated. For example, when the open switch 10b2 and the stop switch 10b3 are pressed simultaneously, A control code in which the second and third bits are “11” may be formed. In this case, for example, in the program on the receiving unit 30 side, a process giving priority to a stop command is performed, It is possible to perform other special processing.

  1 and 2, a device that issues a manual operation command and a device that issues an automatic opening / closing command are configured by an integral transmission unit 10. However, as another example, a device that issues a manual operation command and an automatic opening / closing command may be provided. The emitting device can be a separate and independent device. However, even in this case, means for registering the ID code of the device that issues the automatic opening / closing command is required. This means has, for example, a configuration in which a device that issues a manual operation command has a function of registering an ID code of a device that issues an automatic opening / closing command, and a function that registers the ID code of a device that issues an automatic opening / closing command on the receiving side. What is necessary is just to set it as the provided structure.

  Further, in the above aspect, when a manual operation command and an ID code are issued from another vehicle or the like during the registration work, there is a possibility that the ID code may be registered. In the registration mode, when the received signal includes a manual operation command and an ID code, the ID code is not registered, and only when there is a command by a special switch (for example, a registration command switch not shown) It is also possible to adopt a configuration that permits registration of an apparatus-specific ID code or manually entered ID code.

  Moreover, although the opening / closing device control system of the present embodiment is applied to a garage shutter device, as other examples, shutter devices for other uses, overhead doors, doors, sliding doors including shutters, windows, roll screens, The present invention can be applied to blinds, awning devices, gates, gates (gates such as parking lots), sliding wall devices, and the like.
