Description

  The present invention relates to a wide area disaster support system for an elevator.

  When an elevator is damaged by a wide-area disaster, the elevator will automatically stop if the earthquake exceeds a specific seismic intensity, starting from the operation of the installed seismometer. If the elevator stops, an engineer at the elevator maintenance company will visually inspect the installed equipment and hoistway for any abnormalities at the site. If there are no problems, reset the seismometer and operate it. Switch to normal automatic operation to complete the recovery. Such restoration work is carried out while patroling all the stop sites. Therefore, it was necessary to visit all elevators that could stop regardless of the scale of the disaster.

Conventionally, in this wide area disaster support system as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-7337, the operation state is acquired from a monitoring center using a remote monitoring device and a communication line installed in an elevator and recovered. By accurately notifying a worker's mobile terminal of a stop site, it is possible to perform patrol and recovery only at the stopped site, and a method for minimizing unnecessary visits has been proposed.
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-7337

  In the above prior art, the communication line of the monitoring terminal device installed in the elevator using a wired line is used, and the order of collection of operation status is constant.

  In the present invention, the optimal location is determined from the location of the worker at the time of the disaster and the work route registered in advance, and the mobile phone is used for the site that needs to be restored by acquiring the operation status of the elevator according to this patrol route. By notifying the mobile terminal, it is possible to make a patrol only on the site that needs to be restored with the optimum route from the current position.

In addition, the patrol route and possible instruction from the mobile terminal to acquire indication of operating state for different elevator and, for the disaster scene outside the patrol route also be flexibly support, minimizing the recovery time at the time of wide-area disaster It is to do.

In order to achieve the above object, in the present invention, a monitoring center that monitors the operating state of at least one elevator, and a damage situation is notified from the monitoring center to a recovery worker using a communication line during a wide-area disaster. In a wide area disaster support system for an elevator that allows the monitoring center to centrally manage recovery status by inputting completion of recovery work from the mobile terminal, the monitoring center includes at least position information of the mobile terminal More specifically, the location of the restoration worker is specified, and the tour route providing means for providing the optimum tour route of the elevator to be restored, and the inquiry about the restoration status from the mobile terminal, the tour route providing means provides the Acquire the operation status of the elevator according to the optimal patrol route and provide recovery information If the old and a recovery target additional means of incorporating in the recovery target, the recovery target additional means also for the recovery target lift which is the root outside of the optimal tour route provided by the patrol route providing means, An operation state acquisition instruction can be instructed from the portable terminal, and when necessary , it is added to the optimum patrol route and incorporated into a restoration target.

  According to the present invention, it is possible to patrol only the site where the restoration work is required, and it is possible to minimize the travel time by the optimum route, and the restoration time is shortened without being affected by the magnitude of the disaster. It is possible to eliminate unnecessary patrols of workers and to minimize the service stop to the user.

  Hereinafter, the best embodiment of the wide area disaster support system for an elevator according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of a wide area disaster support system for elevators according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a diagram of an optimum patrol route when the worker position is P1, and FIG. It is a figure of the optimal patrol route when it was P2.
In FIG. 1, S1 acquires the operation state of the elevator from the monitoring terminal devices T1, T2, T3 connected to the elevators EL1, EL2, EL3 using the monitoring center K1 at the time of disaster using the general public line N, This is a wide area disaster support system that sequentially stores in a database DA that stores operation status. The operator can display the operation state DA held in the wide area disaster support system S1 via the general public line N on the display unit DP1 of the portable terminal TM. Further, when the restoration work result is input to the damaged elevator from the input unit IN2 of the portable terminal device TM, the work result is reflected in the operation state database DA of the wide area disaster support system via the general public line N in real time. . The elevator reflected in DA is not displayed on the traveling list display portion DP1 of the portable terminal TM as a property for which treatment has been performed. The worker goes to the next property displayed in the traveling list display section of the mobile terminal TM and sequentially performs the recovery work.

 It is assumed that the tour route stored in the tour route DB is set in advance. In addition, the work position information database DC is based on the information input from the result input unit of the portable terminal TM when the maintenance work result of the elevator in the normal state is input, and the current worker's location of the elevator Stores whether work is being performed.

 When a wide area disaster occurs and the wide area disaster support system S1 is activated, the current position of each worker stored in the worker position information DC is acquired. For example, when a worker is at home at night or on holidays, In the case of the standard patrol route RT1 set in FIG. 2, the wide area disaster support system S1 uses the monitoring center K1 to change the states of the elevators EL1, EL2, EL3 to EL6 using the general public line N. Queries the monitoring terminal devices T1, T2, T3. At this time, the inquiring order is performed along RT1, which is a cyclic order, and the operation states that are sequentially revealed are acquired from the database DA and displayed on the display unit DP1 of the portable terminal device TM. The worker starts recovery work for the list displayed according to RT1. When the state acquisition is performed here, if the elevator EL2 is performing normal operation, it is not displayed on the traveling list display portion DP1, but is displayed in the order of EL1, EL3, EL4 to EL6.

 When the worker is performing maintenance work on the elevator in a normal state and is in a place as indicated by the worker position P2 in FIG. 3, the wide area disaster support system S1 includes the information stored in the worker position information database DC. The travel route set for the individual stored in the tour route database DB is matched, and the elevator EL4 closest to the current position P2 among the elevators registered in the tour route DB is listed as the head, The operation states of the elevators EL1, EL2, EL3 are acquired from the monitoring terminals T1, T2, T3 in the order according to the sequential route, and only elevators that require restoration work are transferred from the state acquisition instruction input unit IN1 of the portable terminal TM to the elevator. Instructs ELx to obtain status, and states that the elevator is off the route If you had to get it can be included as a target of the recovery work.

 The wide area disaster support system S1 adds the elevator state acquisition from the state acquisition instruction input unit of the mobile terminal device TM to the traveling route RT2, and generates RT3 as judged from the address information DBD of the elevator. The operation state of the elevator is acquired according to the generated RT3 and displayed on the tour list display portion DP1 of the portable terminal TM. By this operation, the worker can add to the work route other than the designated tour route, and can flexibly cope with the current position.

It is a block diagram showing one embodiment of the present invention. It is a figure showing the optimal patrol route when a worker's position is P1. It is a figure showing the optimal patrol route when a worker's position is P2.
