Description

  The present invention relates to an elevator display device, and more particularly to an elevator display device installed in an elevator hall, a car room, or the like.

  FIGS. 1A and 1B are diagrams respectively showing examples of the shape of a general elevator display device. The elevator display device is other than dot matrix display, segment display, or liquid crystal display. In FIGS. 1A and 1B, reference numeral 1 denotes a face plate installed in an elevator hall, a car room or the like, 2 denotes a front plate provided on the face plate 1, and 3 denotes an ascending / descending direction (progress of the elevator). Direction lamps for displaying (direction), 4 is a floor indicator lamp for displaying the current position of the elevator car, and 5 is an operation indicator lamp for displaying the operation state. As shown in FIG. 1, such an elevator display device displays information on the operation indicator lamp 5, the direction lamp 3, the floor indicator lamp 4, and the like using individual translucent display bodies. As shown in FIG. 2, each display body is formed by printing or digging display characters 8 on the front or back surface of a translucent plate-like display body 7 made of resin, and colored resin is formed there. The display characters are displayed by filling and lighting the light source 6 installed on the back surface of the display body 7.

"↑" indicating that the car is upward, 8e is a character indicating "2" indicating that the elevator car is currently located on the second floor, and 8f indicates that the elevator car is currently located on the seventh floor. 7 "is a display character. On each display body 7, any one of these display characters 8a to 8g or a picture to be displayed is printed as display contents. The display body 7 on which the display characters 8a or 8b are printed is an operation indicator lamp for displaying the operation state of the elevator, and the display body 7 on which the display characters 8c or 8d are printed is in the elevator ascending / descending operation. A display lamp 7 that is a directional lamp that displays directions and on which display characters 8e, 8f, and 8g are printed is a floor display lamp that displays the current position of the elevator car. Here, only the display characters 8e indicating the second floor, the display characters 8f indicating the seventh floor, and 8g indicating the 15th floor are given as examples of the display characters indicating the floor. Of course, an elevator is installed. Needless to say, as many display characters as the number of floors corresponding to all the elevator stop floors of a building are provided.

  In the first embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, display contents such as display characters 8 a to 8 d to be displayed or a picture to be displayed are displayed on one side surface (printing surface or display surface) of each display body 7. One by one by colorless or colored printing or digging. These display bodies 7 are arranged in a line with their orientations aligned so that the printing surfaces are in the same orientation. Further, the distances between the side surfaces of the adjacent display bodies 7 are arranged so as to be separated from each other by a spatial distance 11 so that a predetermined spatial distance 11 is obtained. The end of each display body 7 is fixed to the main surface of the case 9. Thereby, each display body 7 will be arrange | positioned in one place, if it sees from the printing surface side. In the case 9, the light bulbs 6 a and 6 b are provided on a one-to-one basis so as to correspond to the display bodies 7 in accordance with the mounting positions of the display bodies 7. A light shielding plate 10a is provided between the light bulbs 6a and 6b so that the display body 7 does not receive light from the adjacent light bulbs 6a and 6b. Moreover, the switching control device 30 switches on / off of the light bulbs 6a and 6b. The switching control device 30 selects only one (or a plurality of) light bulbs from the light bulbs 6a and 6b and controls them to light up.

  Next, the operation will be described. The elevator display device of the first embodiment is configured as described above, and only one (or more) of the light bulbs 6a and 6b installed at the end of the display body 7 by the switching control device 30. Is selectively turned on, and the light from the light bulb is received and diffused by the printing surface of the display body 7 corresponding to the light bulb, and is emitted from the display surface 7. Turn on only the information you want to display. In the example of FIG. 3, only the light bulb 6a is selected and turned on, and the other light bulbs 6b are turned off. For this reason, only the display body 7 on which the display character 8d corresponding to the light bulb 6a is printed out of the plurality of display bodies 7 emits light. As a result, the display character 8d is displayed and the other display bodies 7 are in a dark state. Therefore, the display characters 8a to 8c are not clearly visible to the user and are not displayed. Thus, the display character (display content) displayed is changed by switching the light bulb to light. In particular, when the elevator car room is moving, the display characters 8e, 8f, and 8g of the display body 7, which are floor indicator lights, need to indicate the current position of the car room as the elevator moves. , Changes from moment to moment. The switching control device 30 obtains operation information such as the current position of the elevator car room, the direction of ascending / descending direction, the operation state, and the like from a control panel (not shown) that performs elevator speed control and operation management control, for example. Based on this, the display content to be displayed is selected, and switching control of the light bulbs 6a and 6b is performed. In addition, although it is essential for the display body 7 to have translucency, if it comprises a transparent member further, visibility will improve more.

  FIG. 4 shows a state of the elevator in which the elevator display device shown in FIG. 3 is installed. FIG. 4A is a view showing the state of the elevator on each floor when the elevator display device is installed, and FIG. 4B is a perspective view showing the elevator display device in the installed state. As shown in FIG. 4 (b), in the present embodiment, the elevator display device shown in FIG. 3 (a) is rotated 90 degrees to the left, and the printing surface of the display body 7 is installed with the elevator display device. It is attached in the installation direction so that the case 9 is on the top and parallel to the wall surface of the place to be. Specifically, in FIG. 4B, the back surface portion of the case 9 illustrated on the innermost side is fixed to the wall surface of the elevator hall, and the printing surface of the display body 7 is parallel to the wall surface. The elevator display device is fixed so as to become. As a result, the printing surface is in front of the wall surface, and it is easy to see from the passenger waiting for the elevator near the elevator landing door. What is important here is that the printing surface of the display body 7 is the front surface with respect to the wall surface, and the case 9 does not necessarily have to be on the upper side. Moreover, as an installation position of an elevator display apparatus, as shown to Fig.4 (a), the wall surface near the door of the elevator hall of the elevator hall 14 (in the example of Fig.4 (a), the position on the upper left of an elevator door) ) Is desirable. FIG. 4A shows that the user is pushing the upward car call button 16a of the car call button 15 at the hall of the elevator hall 14, or the elevator car room 17 is stopped at the stop floor and the elevator car room 17 A state in which a user who has been on the road tries to get off to the elevator hall 14 is shown. In such a situation, the user sees display characters or pictures printed on the display body 7 whose printing surface is emitted by the light bulbs 6a or 6b in the plurality of display bodies 7 constituting the elevator display device. Thus, necessary information such as the elevator direction, the current position of the elevator, and operation information is obtained. As described above, according to the elevator display device according to the present embodiment, by superimposing the display body 7, the characters of the direction light, the floor display light, and the operation display light can be displayed in one space. A lot of information can be displayed in a small space. Further, since the space can be saved, the display characters on each display body 7 do not need to be reduced and can be enlarged, so that the display is easy to read.

  5 and 6 are modifications of the elevator display device according to the first embodiment. The basic configuration of the elevator display device shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 is the same as that shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, but the display body 7 is divided into a right half and a left half, and the left half is divided. 3 and 4 is different in that the display characters 8e, 8f, and 8g indicating the elevator floor are printed and the right half is the other direction lights and operation display lights. Therefore, the display body 7 shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 includes two display bodies, that is, a display body 7a constituting the left half and a display body 7b constituting the right half. Light bulbs 6a and 6b are separately provided in the case 9 for each of the two display bodies 7a and 7b. Therefore, the display bodies 7a and 7b are not turned on / off in synchronization, but are turned on / off separately. Further, the display body 7a and the display body 7b are connected by a light-shielding adhesive 10b so as not to receive light from each other. Other configurations and operations are the same as those shown in FIGS. In this way, with the configuration shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the characters of the direction light, the operation indicator light, and the floor indicator light can be displayed in one space, so even in an elevator with a large number of floors, it can be saved. Large characters that are easy to read in space can be displayed.

  Conventionally, when it is attempted to display a direction light, an operation display light, and a position display light at one place, a dot matrix display or the like as shown in FIG. Since there is a need to change, there are limitations on the expression of characters and pictures on the display. As shown in FIG. 8, the elevator display device of the present embodiment represents the display characters 8g, pictures, etc. by printing or engraving. However, since it can be displayed, the design of display characters 8a to 8g and pictures can be freely changed, and display contents can be freely selected and set.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, a plurality of display bodies 7 are overlapped to form one elevator display device, and only the display body 7 on which information is to be displayed is illuminated. Large display characters can be lit while planning a space, so it is possible to install in limited spaces even in elevators where the number of floors of the building and the types of indicator lights to be displayed are large. . Further, even when various display bodies are lit up and displayed at one place, the type of display characters can be freely selected, and a display device which is excellent in design can be provided.

Embodiment 2. FIG.
FIGS. 9 and 10 are views showing a state in which the elevator display device according to the present invention is installed when the elevator is installed in an environment where a human flow line enters only from one side of the elevator hall 14. It is. As shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, in this example, the elevator hall 14 is a dead end, and the direction of the human flow line is only the flow line 21 indicated by the arrow. 9 and 10, 12 is a three-way frame, 13 is a landing door, 14 is an elevator hall, 15 is a cage call button, 18 is a hall lantern, 19 is a building wall, 20 is an elevator, and 21 is a flow of people. .

  The hall lantern 18 is generally an indicator lamp for indicating that an elevator will arrive soon. A general hall lantern 18 is installed on the wall surface near the door 13 of the landing of each elevator 20, and after the elevator car call button 15 is pressed, the elevator car room 17 approaches the floor and will stop soon. When it is ready to go on, it lights up or flashes to indicate that the elevator is about to arrive. In the present embodiment, the elevator display device of the present invention is also used as a hall lantern, and when the elevator approaches and soon arrives at the floor, the direction light of the elevator display device is controlled by the switching control device 30. The configured display body 7 is blinked to inform the user in advance of the arrival of the elevator car room 17.

  The elevator display device according to the second embodiment basically has the same configuration as that of the first embodiment described above, and has a function that the direction lamp blinks when the arrival of the elevator approaches. The difference from the first embodiment is only the added point and the installation direction of the elevator display device are different. Accordingly, in the following description, different points will be mainly described, and the description of the same configuration and operation as those of the first embodiment will be omitted here.

  The installation direction of the elevator display device in the second embodiment will be described. In the first embodiment described above, the elevator display device is constructed such that the case 9 is on the top, the printing surface of the display body 7 is parallel to the wall surface, and the building wall 19 is oriented in front of the wall surface. It was set as the structure attached to installation surfaces, such as a three-way frame 12. FIG. On the other hand, in Embodiment 2 of this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the entire case 9 is installed on the wall surface, or the entire case 9 is embedded in the wall surface, and the display body 7 is protruded from the wall surface. The printing surface of the display body 7 is installed so as to be perpendicular to the wall surface and the floor surface so that information is displayed on the side surface of the elevator display device. 21 to face the front. However, what is important here is that the printing surface of the display body 7 faces the human flow line 21, and the case 9 does not necessarily have to be provided on the wall side. As a result, as shown in FIG. 9, in an elevator installation environment where the human traffic line 21 is only from one side, it is easy to understand not only for users in the elevator hall but also for customers approaching the elevator hall. The information can be provided.

  The operation will be specifically described. As shown in FIG. 10, when a customer A who tries to get into the elevator comes from the side of the elevator hall 14, the customer B waiting for the elevator has pushed the basket call button 15, so that it is used for the elevator hall. Assume that the hall lantern 18 is shining when the customer A approaches. As a conventional hall lantern, it shines in front of the wall, or it is simply divided into two upper and lower parts without letters printed, and when an upward elevator comes, the upper hall lantern glows and the downward When the elevator came, the lower hall lantern was only shining. With the hall lantern installed on the wall, it was difficult for the customer A walking from the side of the elevator hall 14 to see which elevator would go up and down until he approached the elevator to some extent even if the hall lantern was shining. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the display body 7 of the elevator display device is protruded from the wall so that the printing surface of the display body 7 is in front of the human flow line 21, and the side surface of the elevator display device The information is displayed on the side, and when the arrival of the elevator car room is approaching, the switching control device 30 blinks the indicator 7 as a direction light to inform that the arrival of the elevator is near, Since the elevator lift direction is indicated by the arrow of the display character 8d, the destination display becomes easy to understand for the passenger A who walks in the hallway toward the elevator hall 14 in the direction of the person's flow line 21. You can move quickly to the elevator.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, as in the first embodiment, since a plurality of display bodies 7 are overlapped to form one elevator display device, the same effects as in the first embodiment are obtained. In addition, in the present embodiment, the print surface of the display body 7 is in front of the human flow line 21 in correspondence with the case where the human flow line 21 is only from one side. The elevator display device is installed, and when the elevator arrives soon, the indicator 7 as a direction light is blinked to notify the arrival of the elevator and the arrow of the display character 8d of the display band 7 Since the direction of the elevator lift is notified at the same time, not only the passengers in the elevator hall 14 but also the passengers approaching the elevator hall 14 will soon arrive. Since the destination display indicating the direction of up and down movement of the elevator which is displayed an easy-to-understand, passengers, the effect is obtained that can move quickly to the location of the elevator ride of their own.

Embodiment 3 FIG.
In the above-described second embodiment, the human flow line 21 is only from one side, but in the present third embodiment, the case where the human flow line is from both sides will be described. Also in the third embodiment, similarly to the installation direction of the second embodiment, the elevator display device is protruded from the wall, and is installed so that the printing surface of the display body 7 is in front of the human flow line. The basic configuration of the elevator display device is the same as in the first and second embodiments.

  11, 13, and 14 are diagrams showing the structure of an elevator display device when the display body 7 of the elevator display device protrudes from the wall and the elevator display device is installed so as to display information on the side surface. These are figures which show a mode when the elevator display apparatus of this Embodiment is installed when there exists a person's flow line 21 from the both sides of an elevator hall. 11, 13, and 14, (a) is a side view of the elevator display device, and (b) is a front view of the display body 7 portion on which display characters 8 d are printed when viewed from the direction of flow line A (reference numeral 21). (C) is a front view when the same display body as the display body 7 shown in (b) is viewed from the direction of flow line B (reference numeral 21).

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 11, the display body 7 is made of a transparent resin, and display characters 8c and 8d are printed on the side surface (printing surface) of the display body 7 by colorless or colored printing. By receiving and diffusing the light from the light bulbs 6a and 6b on the printing surface, the printed display characters are displayed and the display body 7 is projected from the wall surface to be installed, so that the printing surface with respect to the human flow line 21 is displayed. Is installed so as to be in front of it, so that printed characters can be confirmed from both the flow line A side and the flow line B side in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 11, when the display body 7 is made of a transparent resin, for example, as shown in FIG. 12, when there are passages on both sides of the elevator hall, the use is made from either direction on both sides toward the elevator. The display characters / pictures of the elevator display device can be clearly shown to the customer, and the elevator can be smoothly moved to the riding position. However, this is a case where the display characters and pictures displayed on the elevator display device are bilaterally symmetric, and the case seen from the front side and the case seen from the back side are the same.

  On the other hand, in the case of display characters 8b and pictures that are not symmetrical as shown in FIG. That is, as shown in FIG. 14, the light shielding plate 23 is provided in the center portion of the surface of the elevator display device on which one end of the display body 7 is fixed, in a direction parallel to the printing surface of the display body 7, By providing a pair of display bodies 7 on which the same display characters or the same picture are printed, one on each side of the light shielding plate 23 with the light shielding plate 23 in between, the display characters and pictures that are not symmetrical are displayed. Even if it exists, the user can check from both sides. That is, a pair of display bodies 7 on which the same display characters 8a are printed are placed back-to-back on both sides of the light shielding plate 23 with the light shielding plate 23 sandwiched therebetween and the printing surface facing outward. That is, the two display bodies 7 on which the display characters 8a are printed are placed back-to-back at a line-symmetric position with the light shielding plate 23 as the central axis. Thereby, the printing surface of those display bodies 7 is provided in the direction which becomes a front with respect to human flow line A and B, respectively. Further, two display bodies 7 on which display characters 8b are printed are placed back-to-back at positions outside the display bodies 7 so as to be line-symmetrical positions with the light shielding plate 23 as the central axis. . The printing surfaces of these display bodies 7 are also provided in the orientations facing the flow lines A and B, respectively. In the example of FIG. 14, an example is shown in which two pairs of display bodies 7 are provided with the light shielding plate 23 as the center. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the display of the innermost display body 7 is shown. Any number of layers may be provided as long as the content can be seen. By sandwiching the light shielding plate 23, the display characters of the display body 7 located behind the light shielding plate 23 cannot be seen when viewed from the directions of the human flow lines A and B. Since only the display characters of the display body 7 provided in front of 23 can be seen, the display characters that are not symmetrical as shown in FIG. 13 can be confirmed by the user from both sides.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, since one elevator display device is configured by superimposing a plurality of display bodies, the same effects as those of the first and second embodiments described above can be obtained. In preparation for the case where there are human traffic lines from both sides, the display characters or pictures can be confirmed in the same way from both sides, so even if there are human traffic lines from both sides of the elevator hall, Since the elevator display device is installed so that the printing surface is in front of 21, not only for customers in the elevator hall, but also for passengers approaching the elevator hall from both sides. Since the destination display indicating the direction of the elevator that arrives is displayed in an easy-to-understand manner, the passenger can quickly move to the location of the elevator on which he / she rides. It is.

  In the above description of the first to third embodiments, the example in which the elevator display device of the present invention is installed on the wall of the elevator hall of the elevator hall has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the display device in the elevator car is used. Can also be used as effective. FIG. 15 shows an example in which the elevator display device of the present invention is installed in the elevator car room. In FIG. 15, 24 is a car operation panel in the elevator car, 25 is an elevator display device of the present invention, 26 is an upper plate provided on the door of the elevator car, 27 is a ceiling of the elevator car, and 28 is an elevator car.
