[First embodiment]
Please refer to Figures 1 and 2. Figure 1 is a front view showing an outline of an automatic door 100. Figure 2 is a block diagram showing an outline of the functions of the automatic door 100. Each functional block shown in each of the following figures is realized in terms of hardware by a computer having a calculation function, a control function, a memory function, an input function, and an output function, various electronic elements, mechanical parts, etc., and in terms of software by a computer program, etc., but here, functional blocks realized by the cooperation of these are depicted. Therefore, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that these functional blocks can be realized in various forms by a combination of hardware and software.

As shown in FIG. 1 or 2, the automatic door 100 mainly comprises a door section 10 that is driven to open and close, a controller 20 that controls the entire automatic door 100, a door sensor 30 that detects people passing by, a drive section 40 that generates power, and a power transmission section 50 that transmits power to the door section 10. In the following description, the left-right direction in FIG. 1 is the horizontal direction (moving direction), and the up-down direction in FIG. 1 is the vertical direction, but the automatic door 100 can be installed in any position, and the installation direction is not limited to the following example. In the example of FIG. 1, an automatic door with a double-sliding opening and closing method is shown, but this is not limited thereto, and the opening and closing method may be a single-sliding type, a swing door type, a folding door type, a rotating type, etc.

The door section 10 includes a first movable door 11L and a second movable door 11R that are each arranged to be movable in the horizontal direction, a first fixed door 12L and a second fixed door 12R that are arranged at positions overlapping the first movable door 11L and the second movable door 11R when the first movable door 11L and the second movable door 11R are in the open state, and a guide mechanism 13 that guides the horizontal movement of the first movable door 11L and the second movable door 11R. When the door section 10 is driven to open, the first movable door 11L shown on the left side in FIG. 1 is driven to the left, and the second movable door 11R shown on the right side in FIG. 1 is driven to the right. When the door section 10 is driven to close, the first movable door 11L is driven to the right, and the second movable door 11R is driven to the left, in the opposite manner to when the door section 10 is driven to open. The number and shape of the doors that constitute the door section 10 are not limited to the above, and can be designed appropriately according to the needs of the installation location. Similarly, the direction in which the door 10 can move is not limited to the horizontal direction, but may be inclined from the horizontal direction.

The guide mechanism 13 includes a running rail 131, a door hanger 132, a wheel 133, a guide rail 134, and a vibration prevention part 135. The running rail 131 is a columnar rail member that extends horizontally above the movable doors 11L and 11R over the entire movable range. The door hanger 132 has a resin wheel 133 built in. The door hanger 132 is attached to the door part 10 so as to suspend the door part 10. Two wheel rollers 133 are provided on each of the upper parts of the movable doors 11L and 11R, and each movable door 11L and 11R is suspended from the running rail 131. When each movable door 11L and 11R is driven to open and close in the horizontal direction, the wheel 133 rolls on the running rail 131, enabling smooth opening and closing operations. The guide rail 134 is a groove-shaped rail member that extends horizontally below the movable doors 11L, 11R over the entire range of their movement. The anti-sway portion 135 protrudes from the bottom of the movable doors 11L, 11R and fits into the groove-shaped guide rail 134. When the movable doors 11L, 11R are driven to open and close horizontally, the anti-sway portion 135 moves along the guide rail 134, so vibrations of the movable doors 11L, 11R in the projection direction (perpendicular to the paper surface of FIG. 2) can be suppressed.

The controller 20 can set various parameters related to the opening and closing of the door section 10. For example, the controller 20 can adjust the setting values of the opening and closing speed, the opening and closing strength, the opening width, etc. The opening and closing speed is the horizontal speed of the first movable door 11L and the second movable door 11R, and the directions of the speeds of both doors are opposite to each other. It is preferable that the magnitude (speed) of the speeds of both doors is equal, but they may be different. In addition, the opening and closing speed may be set to a different value during normal opening and closing and other times. For example, in the case of a so-called reversal in which the door section 10 is switched to an opening drive to urgently avoid a passerby being pinched by the closing movable doors 11L and 11R during the normal closing drive, the speed of the movable doors 11L and 11R during the opening drive may be set to a value different from the speed during the normal opening drive.

The opening and closing strength is the magnitude of the force exerted when the movable doors 11L, 11R are opened and closed, and is controlled by the torque value generated by the motor 41 of the drive unit 40 described below. As with the opening and closing speed described above, it is preferable that the opening and closing strength of the movable doors 11L, 11R is basically the same. Also, different opening and closing strengths may be set for normal opening and closing and other times. The opening width is the horizontal distance between the first movable door 11L and the second movable door 11R when the door unit 10 is fully open.

The controller 20 comprises a control device 21, a storage device 22, a communication device 23, and a detection device 24. The control device 21 is realized by an arithmetic processing device implemented in a microcontroller, and is responsible for various information processing and control in the automatic door 100. The control device 21 controls the drive unit 40 to open and close the door unit 10 in response to the detection results of passersby and the like from the door sensor 30. The control device 21 can also open and close the automatic door 100 in response to receiving an opening/closing command signal for opening and closing the automatic door 100 from an operator's work terminal or a remote computer via the communication device 23.

The storage device 22 is a general-purpose memory that stores various data for the automatic door 100. In particular, in this embodiment, the storage device 22 is used to store door condition information and actual operation information for the automatic door 100, which will be described later. As will be described later, the door condition information and actual operation information are also stored in a remote server or the like, and can be referenced centrally.

The communication device 23 exchanges various information with communication devices external to the automatic door 100 via wired or wireless connections. For example, the communication device 23 can communicate with a work terminal used by a worker who goes to the site to install or maintain the automatic door 100. This allows the worker to check information on each part of the automatic door 100 on the work terminal and input various data on the automatic door 100. If the communication device 23 has a communication function via a public information and communication network such as the Internet, it is possible to check information on the automatic door 100 and input data from a remote computer.

The detector 24 detects operation information of the automatic door 100. Details of the detector 24 will be described later.

The door sensor 30 comprises an activation sensor 31 and an auxiliary sensor 32. The activation sensor 31 is a photoelectric sensor mounted on the surface of the blind 60 above the door section 10. The activation sensor 31 comprises a light-emitting section that emits light such as infrared light toward the floor surface, and a light-receiving section that detects reflected light from the floor surface. When a person approaches the automatic door 100 and blocks the light, the amount of light received by the light-receiving section changes, making it possible to detect the person. When such detection information from the activation sensor 31 is input to the controller 20, the motor 41 is driven to open the door section 10.

The auxiliary sensor 32 is a photoelectric sensor provided on the first fixed door 12L and the second fixed door 12R of the door section 10. The auxiliary sensor 32 has a light-emitting unit provided on one of the first fixed door 12L and the second fixed door 12R, and a light-receiving unit provided on the other. The light-emitting unit and the light-receiving unit are provided at the same height from the floor surface, and the light-receiving unit detects light such as infrared light emitted horizontally from the light-emitting unit. When the door section 10 is open and a pedestrian passes through the opening and blocks the light, the amount of light received by the light-receiving unit changes, so the pedestrian can be detected. The main purpose of the auxiliary sensor 32 is to protect against closure, and when the auxiliary sensor 32 detects a pedestrian during the closing operation of the movable doors 11L and 11R, the control device 21 performs inversion control to stop the closing drive and switch to the opening drive. This makes it possible to prevent the pedestrian from being caught between the closing movable doors 11L and 11R.

The drive unit 40 includes a motor 41 as a power source that generates rotational power, and a drive pulley 42 that is rotationally driven by the motor 41. The motor 41 can be configured as any of a variety of known motors, but in this embodiment, as an example, it is a brushless motor equipped with an encoder 41A that uses a Hall element. The position of the rotor of the motor 41 detected by the encoder 41A is input to the control device 21, and a drive voltage or drive current is applied to the motor 41 accordingly, thereby generating the desired rotational power. The drive pulley 42 is connected to the rotor of the motor 41 via a gear mechanism or the like (not shown), and rotates in conjunction with it.

The power transmission unit 50 transmits the power generated by the drive unit 40 to the door unit 10, and drives the movable doors 11L and 11R to open and close. The power transmission unit 50 includes a power transmission belt 51, a driven pulley 52, and a connecting member 53. The power transmission belt 51 is a circular timing belt with many teeth formed on its inner circumferential surface, and is wound around the drive pulley 42 on the right side of FIG. 1, and around the driven pulley 52 on the left side of FIG. 1. In this state, the horizontal dimension of the power transmission belt 51 is equal to the horizontal distance between the drive pulley 42 and the driven pulley 52, and is also approximately the same as the horizontal dimension of the movable range of the movable doors 11L and 11R. When the drive pulley 42 is rotated by the motor 41, the driven pulley 52 rotates in conjunction with it via the power transmission belt 51.

The connecting member 53 connects the movable doors 11L and 11R to the power transmission belt 51, respectively, to drive them to open and close. Here, one movable door is connected to the upper side of the power transmission belt 51, and the other movable door is connected to the lower side of the power transmission belt 51. In the example of FIG. 1, when the power transmission belt 51 rotates counterclockwise, the first movable door 11L moves to the left and the second movable door 11R moves to the right, which is an opening operation, and when the power transmission belt 51 rotates clockwise, the first movable door 11L moves to the right and the second movable door 11R moves to the left, which is a closing operation.

The opening operation of the automatic door 100 will be described with reference to FIG. 3. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of the transition of the travel speed of the door section 10, the drive current of the motor 41, and the drive voltage during the opening operation. In FIG. 3, the horizontal axis indicates the movement stroke (hereinafter referred to as the "stroke value") of the door section 10 from the closed position to the open position, and the vertical axis indicates the travel speed of the door section 10, the drive current of the motor 41, and the drive voltage. The opening operation is an operation in which the door section 10, which is stopped at the closed position, is moved to the open position and stopped. The opening operation of this embodiment includes an acceleration control operation for accelerating the door section 10, which is stopped at the closed position, to a predetermined first speed, a high-speed control operation for maintaining the first speed, a deceleration control operation for decelerating to a second speed, a low-speed control operation for maintaining the second speed, and a door contact operation for stopping the door section 10 by contacting it with a stopper (not shown). In the acceleration control operation, when the speed reaches the first speed, the high-speed control operation is switched to. In the high-speed control operation, when the stroke value reaches a predetermined value, the high-speed control operation is switched to the deceleration control operation. In the deceleration control operation, when the speed reaches the second speed, the operation switches to the low-speed control operation. In the low-speed control operation, the door section 10 is moved to the open position. When the door section 10 reaches the open position, the door section 10 comes into contact with the stopper and stops due to the door contact operation.

As shown in FIG. 3, in the opening operation, the travel speed of the door section 10 passes through multiple speed ranges before reaching the open position. In this embodiment, the travel speed passes through an acceleration range corresponding to an acceleration control operation, a high-speed range corresponding to a high-speed control operation, a deceleration range corresponding to a deceleration control operation, and a low-speed range corresponding to a low-speed control operation. In other words, the travel speed includes an acceleration range in which the travel speed is accelerated to a first speed, a high-speed range in which the travel speed is maintained at the first speed, a deceleration range in which the travel speed is decelerated to a second speed that is slower than the first speed, and a low-speed range in which the travel speed is maintained at the second speed. The high-speed range is used to mean a travel speed that is faster than the low-speed range.

A more detailed explanation will be given. In the acceleration control operation, the drive voltage of the motor 41 is controlled so that the relationship of the travel speed to the stroke value follows a predetermined acceleration curve. In this embodiment, in the acceleration control operation, a drive voltage that increases as the travel speed increases is supplied to the motor 41. Also, in the example of FIG. 3, in order to reduce overshoot, the drive voltage is gradually reduced near the first speed, gradually decreasing the acceleration. The voltage supplied to the motor 41 is pulse width modulated (PWM modulated), and the drive voltage is varied according to the duty ratio of the supply voltage. Note that in the acceleration control operation, the motor 41 may be subjected to constant voltage control, constant current control, or constant acceleration control.

In high-speed control operation, the drive voltage Em is controlled so as to suppress any fluctuations in speed when the speed fluctuates from the first speed. In this embodiment, the motor 41 is constantly controlled to the first speed in the high-speed range. In this embodiment, this constant speed control is a control that feeds back the detected motor speed. However, this constant speed control may be control that does not include feedback. The first speed may be the maximum movement speed of the door section 10 or a speed close to the maximum movement speed.

In the deceleration control operation, the drive voltage Em is controlled so that the relationship of the travel speed to the stroke value follows a predetermined deceleration curve. In this operation, the drive voltage is gradually reduced to decelerate the travel speed due to the sliding load of the door section 10, etc. In this embodiment, the deceleration control operation supplies the motor 41 with a drive voltage that decreases as the travel speed decreases. In the example of FIG. 3, in order to reduce overshoot, the drive voltage is once reduced to zero or a voltage close to zero near the second speed. In the deceleration control operation, the back electromotive force of the motor 41 may be short-circuited to generate a brake torque by a short brake operation, or a voltage of the opposite polarity to that during acceleration may be supplied to the motor 41 to generate a brake torque. In the deceleration control operation, the motor 41 may be subjected to constant voltage control, constant current control, or constant acceleration control.

In the low-speed control operation, the door part 10 moving at the second speed is brought into contact with a stopper to stop the door part 10. In order to reduce the impact when the door part 10 is brought into contact with the stopper, the second speed may be a speed slower than the first speed, for example, a slow-moving speed that can be stopped in a short time. In the example of FIG. 3, the drive voltage that is once reduced to zero or a low voltage in the deceleration range is increased to a level that can maintain the second speed in the low-speed range. In the low-speed control operation, constant speed control may be performed to suppress the fluctuation when the speed fluctuates from the second speed. Note that the second speed does not have to be a constant speed as long as it is slower than the first speed, and may be a speed that gradually decreases as it approaches the open position, for example.

The closing operation is an operation in which the door section 10 is moved from the open position to the closed position and then stopped. The closing operation differs from the opening operation in that the stroke direction is reversed. The control operations for the acceleration, high speed, deceleration and low speed ranges of the closing operation are the same as those of the opening operation, and therefore redundant explanations will be omitted.

Figure 4 shows an outline of the functions of the door installation diagnosis support device 1 of this embodiment. The door installation diagnosis support device 1 supports diagnosis of the installation state of the automatic door 100. The door installation diagnosis support device 1 includes an automatic door designation unit 101, an output unit 102, a memory unit 110, and an acquisition unit 120. The door installation diagnosis support device 1 may be provided integrally with the controller 20, may be provided separately from the controller 20, or may be provided separately from the automatic door 100.

The automatic door designation unit 101 designates the automatic door 100 to be diagnosed for its installation condition, for example, as follows. When an operator visits a specific automatic door installation site to perform maintenance and inspection work, the automatic door designation unit 101 designates that automatic door as the installation diagnosis target. In this case, the automatic door 100 identified by reading the QR code (registered trademark) attached to the automatic door 100 may be designated. The automatic door designation unit 101 may also designate any remote automatic door as the maintenance target based on the operation of a computer. Furthermore, if there is no manual designation, the automatic door designation unit 101 may designate each automatic door as the diagnosis target in turn in a cyclical manner by the computer. Furthermore, if an automatic door showing signs of deterioration or failure is found, the automatic door designation unit 101 may automatically designate it as the diagnosis target. The automatic door designation unit 101 supplies the identification information (such as a management number) of the designated automatic door 100 to the acquisition unit 120.

The memory unit 110 stores various information about the automatic door 100. The memory unit 110 includes a door condition information memory unit 111 that stores the door condition information described below, and an operation information memory unit 112 that stores the operation information described below.

The acquisition unit 120 acquires various information about the automatic door 100. The acquisition unit 120 includes a door condition information acquisition unit 121, an expected operation information acquisition unit 122, and an actual operation information acquisition unit 123.

The door condition information acquisition unit 121 acquires door condition information for the automatic door 100 specified by the automatic door designation unit 101. The door condition information is information on prerequisites for operating the automatic door 100. For example, the door condition information in this embodiment includes door configuration information on the configuration of the automatic door 100 and door setting information on the settings of the automatic door 100. Different operation information is obtained from automatic doors with different door configuration information and door setting information.

The door configuration information of the door condition information includes at least one of the following: data indicating the opening and closing method of the automatic door 100; data indicating the mass of the door section 10 of the automatic door 100; data indicating the type of door hanger 132 of the automatic door 100 (soft resin, hard resin, etc.); and data indicating the inclination of the automatic door 100 with respect to a predetermined reference plane (e.g. a horizontal plane) on the construction ground. The door setting information of the door condition information includes at least one of the set value of the travel speed of the door section 10 of the automatic door 100; the set value of the opening width of the automatic door 100; and the set value of the generated torque of the motor 41 of the automatic door 100. The door configuration information and door setting information are associated with the identification information (such as a management number) of the automatic door for each automatic door 100 and are stored in advance in the door condition information storage unit 111.

The door condition information acquisition unit 121 of this embodiment acquires door condition information by reading door condition information associated with the identification information of the specified automatic door 100 from the door condition information storage unit 111. The automatic door 100 for which door condition information is to be acquired may be an automatic door to be installed in the future, or an automatic door that has already been installed.

The door configuration information and the door setting information are stored in the door condition information storage unit 111 together, for example, by the worker in charge of installation when the automatic door 100 is installed, or by a supervisor who remotely supervises the installation work. The storage work may be performed manually by the worker in charge of installation on-site or the supervisor who remotely supervises the installation work, or depending on the item, the information may be automatically input without human intervention. The door condition information and the door setting information can also be stored in the local storage device 22 of the automatic door 100, but may also be stored centrally in the door condition information storage unit 111 configured in a storage area of a server or the like, based on manual operation by the worker or the supervisor, or automatically read via a network. When the setting value in the door setting information is changed, the door setting information may be updated in the door condition information storage unit 111 by the worker or the like using the changed setting value. The door condition information acquisition unit 121 supplies the acquired door condition information to the expected operation information acquisition unit 122.

The expected operation information acquisition unit 122 acquires expected operation information, which is operation information expected to be obtained when driving an automatic door corresponding to the door condition information. As will be described in detail later, the operation information is associated with each door condition information and stored in advance in the operation information storage unit 112. The expected operation information acquisition unit 122 of this embodiment reads out operation information of the automatic door corresponding to the door condition information supplied from the door condition information acquisition unit 121 from the operation information storage unit 112, and acquires the read operation information as expected operation information. For example, if the door condition information includes data indicating that the door is a double-sliding door and that the running speed is 0.1 m/s, the operation information of the automatic door that is a double-sliding door and has a running speed of 0.1 m/s is read out. Here, if the operation information of the automatic door corresponds to the door condition information, only one operation information may be read out, or multiple operation information may be read out. The expected operation information acquisition unit 122 of this embodiment supplies the acquired expected operation information to the output unit 102.

The operation information will now be described. In this embodiment, the operation information includes at least one of the following: the elapsed time from the start of the opening and closing operation of the automatic door, the stroke value, the running speed, the acceleration, and the drive voltage and drive current of the motor 41. As will be described later, this operation information can be used to diagnose the installation condition of the automatic door 100.

In this embodiment, multiple automatic doors that have been properly constructed in accordance with predetermined regulations and each have different configurations and settings are prepared in advance. Experiments are conducted in advance to actually open and close these multiple automatic doors, and operational information for these automatic doors during opening and closing operations is collected in advance. Note that this is not limited to opening and closing operations, and may be either an opening operation or a closing operation.

Figure 5 shows an example of the operation information to be collected. Figure 5 shows the stroke value, drive voltage, speed, and acceleration versus the elapsed time during one opening and closing operation. The configuration and setting values of each automatic door are specified as door condition information, and operation information obtained through experiments on each automatic door is associated with that door condition information and stored in the operation information storage unit 112. As a result, corresponding operation information for each different door condition information is stored in the operation information storage unit 112, and the relationship between each door condition information and the corresponding actual operation information is stored. The operation information stored in the operation information storage unit 112 is obtained from automatic doors that have been properly installed according to predetermined regulations, and therefore reflects the appropriate installation state.

The actual operation information acquisition unit 123 acquires actual operation information, which is operation information obtained when the automatic door 100 is actually operated. Specifically, the actual operation information acquisition unit 123 acquires the actual operation information from the detection results of the detection device 24. The detection device 24 includes a voltage sensor 24a that detects the drive voltage of the motor 41, a current sensor 24b that detects the drive current of the motor 41, and a speed sensor 24c that detects the travel speed of the automatic door 100.

The voltage sensor 24a detects the drive voltage Em of the motor 41 from its duty ratio. The current sensor 24b detects the drive current Im of the motor 41 as a voltage drop across a resistor (not shown, sometimes called a shunt resistor) connected in series to the motor 41. The speed sensor 24c obtains the rotation speed of the motor 41 according to the period and frequency of the output signal of an encoder (Hall IC) 41A mounted on the motor 41. Note that since the running speed of the door section 10 is proportional to the rotation speed of the motor 41, it can be said that the speed sensor 24c detects the running speed. The door position (stroke value) can be obtained by counting the output signal of the encoder 41A.

In this embodiment, actual operation information is acquired by sending an opening/closing command signal from a work terminal or a remote computer and actually driving the automatic door 100 to open and close. Here, in order to properly grasp the trend of the actual operation information, it is preferable to drive the automatic door 100 to open and close multiple times and use the average value of the detection results from multiple times as the actual operation information. The actual operation information acquisition unit 123 supplies the acquired actual operation information to the output unit 102.

The actual operation information of the automatic door 100 may be associated with the automatic door 100 and sequentially stored in the operation information storage unit 112. In this case, the actual operation information is read from the operation information storage unit 112 and used. For example, a worker who goes to the installation site of the automatic door 100 can read the operation information stored in the operation information storage unit 112 via a work terminal. In this case, the function of the acquisition unit 120 is realized in the work terminal. Also, a remote computer such as a server can read the operation information stored in the operation information storage unit 112 via a public information and communication network such as the Internet. In this case, the function of the acquisition unit 120 is realized in the remote computer. Also, if the communication device 23 and the remote computer are constantly connected to a public information and communication network, the operation information can be transmitted to the remote computer in real time and stored therein. In this case, it is not necessary to store the operation information in the operation information storage unit 112.

As is clear from the above description, the functions of the acquisition unit 120 are not fixedly realized in a specific device, but are realized in various devices (work terminals and remote computers) as necessary. The operation information of the automatic doors acquired by the acquisition unit 120 may be stored centrally in the operation information storage unit 112, or may be accessible at any time from the work terminal of a field worker or a remote computer. Here, the operation information storage unit 112 may store all operation information of all automatic doors as is for an entire period or a certain period, or may store statistical values such as average values based on the operation information for an entire period or a certain period.

The output unit 102 outputs to the outside the expected operation information and the actual operation information supplied from the expected operation information acquisition unit 122 and the actual operation information acquisition unit 123, respectively. In this embodiment, the output unit 102 presents the expected operation information and the actual operation information on a display screen of a work terminal or the like.

Next, differences in the characteristics of the operation information depending on whether the automatic door 100 is properly installed will be described. First, referring to FIG. 6, the characteristics of the travel speed of the automatic door 100 when the tension of the power transmission belt 51 is too high will be described. FIG. 6 is a graph showing the travel speed of the door section 10 of the automatic door 100 versus the elapsed time from the start of the opening operation of the automatic door 100. The solid line in FIG. 6 shows the travel speed Vd(A) of the automatic door 100(A) when the tension of the power transmission belt 51 is adjusted to a standard tension. The dashed line in FIG. 6 shows the travel speed Vd(B) of the automatic door 100(B) when the tension of the power transmission belt 51 is higher than the standard state.

The tension of the power transmission belt 51 is adjusted, for example, during installation. When the power transmission belt 51 is adjusted to a standard tension, the power transmission belt 51 has a lot of slack and the resistance at the start of the opening operation is small. As a result, as shown in FIG. 6, the running speed Vd (A) increases sharply at the start of the opening operation (for example, the area indicated by A in FIG. 3). On the other hand, if the tension is mistakenly adjusted too strongly during installation, the play of the power transmission belt 51 decreases and the resistance at the start of the opening operation increases. As a result, the running speed Vd (B) of the automatic door 100 (B) increases gradually from the start of the opening operation. In this way, the appropriateness of the tension of the power transmission belt 51 can be diagnosed according to the running speed at the start of the opening operation.

Next, referring to Figures 7 and 8, the characteristics of the drive current and drive voltage of the motor 41 when the mass of the door section 10 is too large will be described. Figure 7 is a graph showing the drive current Im of the motor 41 versus the stroke value between the open and closed positions of the automatic door 100. Figure 8 is a graph showing the drive voltage Em versus the stroke value of the automatic door 100 using its duty ratio. The solid lines in Figures 7 and 8 respectively show the drive current Im (C) and drive voltage Em (C) of the automatic door 100 (C) when the door section 10 has a standard mass. The dashed lines in Figures 7 and 8 respectively show the drive current Im (D) and drive voltage Em (D) of the automatic door 100 (D) when the mass of the door section 10 is larger than the standard.

When the mass of the door section 10 is large, the inertia of the door section 10 becomes large. As a result, it can be seen that during acceleration (for example, the region indicated by B in FIG. 3), a drive current Im(D) greater than the drive current Im(C) is applied (see FIG. 7). It can also be seen that during deceleration (for example, the region indicated by C in FIG. 3), a drive voltage Em(D) greater than the drive voltage Em(C) is applied to generate a greater braking force (see FIG. 8). In this way, it is possible to diagnose whether the mass of the door section 10 is appropriate according to the drive current Im in the acceleration region and the drive voltage Em in the deceleration region.

Next, the characteristics of the drive current and drive voltage of the motor 41 will be described when the running rail 131 and the guide rail 134 are installed at an incline from the horizontal. First, for comparison, the characteristics of the drive current and drive voltage when the running rail 131 and the guide rail 134 are installed horizontally will be described. In this case, since the door section 10 runs horizontally in both the opening operation and the closing operation, the drive current and drive voltage of the motor 41 basically show the same behavior in the opening operation and the closing operation. On the other hand, when the running rail 131 and the guide rail 134 are installed at an incline from the horizontal, the door section 10 runs on an upward slope in one of the opening operation and the closing operation, and the door section 10 runs on a downward slope in the other. For example, when the door section 10 runs on an upward slope in the opening operation, the drive current and drive voltage become large from the start of the opening operation until it reaches the fully open position. Also, when the door section 10 runs on a downward slope in the closing operation, the drive voltage, etc. becomes small immediately after the start of the closing operation. Also, in order to stop the door section 10 in the low speed range (see FIG. 3) just before the automatic door reaches the fully closed position, more braking force needs to be generated, so the drive voltage, etc., becomes smaller. In this way, by comparing the characteristics of the drive voltage, etc. during the opening operation and the closing operation, it is possible to diagnose whether the running rail 131 and the guide rail 134 are installed at an angle from the horizontal.

The operation S10 of the door installation diagnosis support device 1 of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 9. In S11, the automatic door designation unit 101 designates an automatic door. In S12, the door condition information acquisition unit 121 acquires door condition information for the designated automatic door. In S12, door condition information pre-stored in the door condition information storage unit 111 for the designated automatic door is read out. In S13, the expected operation information acquisition unit 122 acquires expected operation information for the automatic door corresponding to the acquired door condition information. In S14, the actual operation information acquisition unit 123 acquires actual operation information for the automatic door for which the door condition information has been acquired. In S15, the output unit 102 outputs the expected operation information and the actual operation information. After S14, the operation S10 ends.

The following describes the operation and effects of this embodiment.

The automatic door 100 is installed by workers who go to the installation site. However, depending on the skill level of the worker, the automatic door 100 may not be installed properly. Even if the automatic door 100 is not installed properly, it will attempt to operate at a set running speed, for example, through the above-mentioned feedback control. In this case, it is easy for abnormal loads on the components of the drive unit 40 and increased heat generation in the motor 41 due to increased drive current, which can easily lead to future abnormalities or failures in the automatic door.

The door installation diagnosis support device 1 of this embodiment outputs actual operation information, which is operation information obtained when an automatic door is actually operated, and expected operation information, which is operation information expected to be obtained when an automatic door corresponding to the door condition information of the automatic door is operated. Since the expected operation information is obtained from an automatic door that has been properly installed according to predetermined regulations, if the automatic door 100 is properly installed, the actual operation information and the expected operation information should basically be similar. However, if there is a part of the automatic door 100 that has not been properly installed, it is thought that the actual operation information will deviate from the expected operation information. Therefore, by finding a deviation from the expected operation information in the actual operation information, it is possible to effectively discover that the installation state may not be appropriate. Therefore, according to this embodiment, it is possible to support the diagnosis of the installation state of the automatic door.

In this embodiment, the door condition information includes at least one of door configuration information and door setting information. With this configuration, it becomes possible to accurately diagnose the installation condition of the automatic door to be diagnosed based on at least one of the door configuration information and the door setting information.

In this embodiment, the door condition information includes at least one of the following: data indicating the opening and closing method of the automatic door, data indicating the mass of the door section 10 of the automatic door, data indicating the type of door hanger 132 of the automatic door, and data indicating the inclination of the ground on which the automatic door is to be installed relative to a predetermined reference plane. With this configuration, it becomes possible to diagnose the installation condition of the automatic door without providing any new configuration.

The door condition information includes at least one of the following: a set value for the travel speed of the automatic door, a set value for the opening width of the automatic door, and a set value for the torque generated by the motor 41 of the automatic door. With this configuration, it is possible to diagnose the installation condition of the automatic door without providing any new configuration.

In this embodiment, an operation information storage unit 112 is provided that stores the relationship between door condition information and actual operation information for a number of different automatic doors, and the expected operation information acquisition unit 122 acquires expected operation information corresponding to the door condition information acquired by the door condition information acquisition unit 121 from the operation information storage unit 112. With this configuration, operation information that matches the acquired door condition information is acquired as expected operation information from among multiple pieces of operation information obtained when actually operating the automatic doors and stored in the operation information storage unit 112, making it possible to more accurately diagnose the construction status of the automatic doors.

Below, we will explain some variations of this embodiment.

In this embodiment, the door condition information includes door configuration information and door setting information, but is not limited to this and may include at least one of door configuration information and door setting information.

The door configuration information may further include the size (aspect ratio) of the door section 10, the type of anti-vibration section 135, etc.

The door condition information of this embodiment may further include at least one of door history information related to the usage history of the automatic door 100 and surrounding environment information related to the surrounding environment of the automatic door 100. This is because the operation information varies depending on the usage history and surrounding environment of the automatic door 100. With this configuration, the current door usage history and surrounding environment can be taken into account, making it possible to more accurately diagnose the construction status of the automatic door.

The door history information may include at least one of the following: the number of times the automatic door is opened and closed; the number of times the automatic door is opened in a reverse direction when the automatic door collides with an object during closing; the number of times the safety stop is performed when the automatic door collides with an object while moving; and the number of times the setting value of the travel speed of the door section of the automatic door was changed. The more times these are, the greater the burden on the automatic door 100 is, and therefore the greater the possibility that the operation information will show characteristics different from those at the time of construction. For these numbers, the cumulative values from the time of installation or security inspection may be used, or the cumulative values within a certain period of time in the past may be used. Since the door history information is stored sequentially in the storage device of the controller 20, it may be obtained by reading it from the storage device. With this configuration, it is possible to more accurately obtain expected operation information based on the current state of the automatic door, and therefore it is possible to more accurately diagnose the construction state of the automatic door.

The ambient environment information may include at least one of the temperature of the ambient environment of the automatic door, the humidity of the ambient environment of the automatic door, and the wind pressure that the automatic door receives. This is because the load when the door section 10 opens and closes changes due to these. Specifically, the hardness of the resin members such as the rollers 133 changes depending on the temperature of the ambient environment, the sliding resistance of the resin members such as the rollers 133 changes depending on the humidity of the ambient environment, and the force that the door section 10 receives changes depending on the magnitude of the wind pressure. The temperature, humidity, and wind pressure in the ambient environment information may be obtained from the detection values of a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, and a wind pressure sensor (all not shown) provided in the automatic door 100. The temperature, humidity, and wind pressure may be current instantaneous values or the latest values, or may be statistical values such as average values based on operation information for a certain period of time. According to this configuration, it is possible to obtain the expected operation information more accurately based on the current ambient environment of the automatic door, and therefore it is possible to diagnose the construction state of the automatic door more accurately.

The operation information may include the braking distance required to stop the automatic door 100 when the automatic door 100 performs a safety return and a safety stop while traveling. For example, if the power transmission belt 51 is adjusted too loosely, the power transmission belt 51 has a lot of play, so the traveling speed decreases suddenly at the start of the reversing operation, and the braking distance becomes smaller than usual. For example, if the mass of the door section 10 is too large, the braking distance becomes larger than usual due to its inertia. For example, if the sliding resistance of the plastic members such as the door roller 133 is too large, the braking distance becomes smaller than usual. For example, if there is an abnormality in the torque generated by the motor 41, the driving voltage or driving current becomes excessive or insufficient through a feedback control loop, etc., and the braking distance becomes larger than usual. Therefore, by finding the deviation between the expected operation information and the actual operation information based on the braking distance during the reversing operation, it is possible to grasp the construction state such as the tension of the power transmission belt 51, the mass of the door section 10, the sliding resistance of the plastic members such as the door roller 133, and the generated torque of the motor 41.

In addition, because operation information such as drive voltage and drive current is affected by the power supply voltage of the automatic door 100, the door condition information may include this power supply voltage. This makes it possible to more accurately diagnose the installation condition of the automatic door.

In this embodiment, the actual operation information is acquired when the automatic door is actually operated, but this is not limited to the above. For example, the actual operation information may be acquired by reading out the latest operation information stored in the operation information storage unit 112 as the actual operation information.

The door installation diagnosis support device 1 of this embodiment supports diagnosis of the installation state of an automatic door, but is not limited to this, and can also support diagnosis of abnormalities and deterioration of the automatic door. For example, the door installation diagnosis support device 1 can support diagnosis of abnormalities and deterioration of the door roller 133. If the automatic door 100 is left in a low-temperature environment without being driven, the plastic door roller 133 may become deformed and solidify. If the automatic door is driven in this state, depending on the shape of the deformed door roller 133, the running resistance of the door section 10 will increase, and the driving voltage, etc. will increase. Therefore, by comparing the driving voltage between the expected operation information and the actual operation information, the deterioration of the door roller 133 can be diagnosed. Note that this behavior is noticeable in the low-speed range. Therefore, it is preferable to diagnose the deterioration of the door roller 133 using the driving voltage in the low-speed range.

In this embodiment, the operation S10 of the door installation diagnosis support device 1 in FIG. 9 is exemplified, but is not limited to this. For example, the operation S20 of the door installation diagnosis support device 1 shown in FIG. 10 will be described. In S21, the automatic door designation unit 101 designates the automatic door 100. In S22, the actual operation information acquisition unit 123 acquires the actual operation information of the designated automatic door. In S23, the door condition information acquisition unit 121 acquires the door condition information of the designated automatic door. Here, the door condition information is acquired when the automatic door is driven to acquire the actual operation information. In S24, the expected operation information acquisition unit 122 acquires the expected operation information of the automatic door corresponding to the acquired door condition information. In S25, the output unit 102 outputs the expected operation information and the actual operation information. According to the operation S20 of FIG. 10, the door condition information is acquired when the automatic door 100 is actually driven. Therefore, it is preferable that the door condition information includes not only the door configuration information and door setting information pre-stored in the door condition information storage unit 111, but also the above-mentioned surrounding environment information, whose value varies depending on the timing of acquisition. This makes it possible to diagnose the construction status with greater accuracy.

[Second embodiment]
A second embodiment of the present invention will be described below. In the drawings and description of the second embodiment, the same or equivalent components and members as those of the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals. Explanations that overlap with the first embodiment will be omitted as appropriate, and the description will focus on the configurations that differ from the first embodiment.

Refer to FIG. 11. The door installation diagnosis support device 1 of this embodiment further includes a model generation unit 103, a model storage unit 113, and an expected operation information provision unit 104. The model storage unit 113 is included in the storage unit 110.

The model generation unit 103 generates a learning model based on the door condition information and the actual operation information corresponding to the door condition information. For example, the model generation unit 103 generates a learning model based on machine learning using a pair of door condition information and operation information (correct answer data) associated and stored in the operation information storage unit 112 as teacher data. When the door condition information is input, the learning model outputs expected operation information. In this embodiment, during construction, an experiment of opening and closing is repeated multiple times for each automatic door, and multiple types of operation information for one automatic door are associated with the door condition information and stored in advance in the operation information storage unit 112. The model generation unit 103 generates multiple teacher data that are pairs of door condition information and each operation information associated with the door condition information, using each of the multiple types of operation information obtained for one automatic door as correct answer data. The model generation unit 103 can generate an estimation model using any well-known machine learning method such as a support vector machine, a decision tree, a random forest, and a neural network. The learning model generated by the model generation unit 103 is stored in the model storage unit 113.

The expected operation information acquisition unit 122 of this embodiment supplies the door condition information supplied from the door condition information acquisition unit 121 to the expected operation information provision unit 104. The expected operation information provision unit 104 generates expected operation information based on the supplied door condition information and the learning model stored in the model storage unit 113. Specifically, the expected operation information provision unit 104 generates the expected operation information by inputting the supplied door condition information into the learning model. The expected operation information provision unit 104 provides the generated expected operation information to the expected operation information acquisition unit 122. As a result, the expected operation information acquisition unit 122 acquires the expected operation information.

As described above, the door installation diagnosis support device 1 of this embodiment includes a model generation unit 103 that generates a learning model based on the door condition information and the actual operation information corresponding to the door condition information, and the expected operation information acquisition unit 122 acquires expected operation information based on the door condition information acquired by the door condition information acquisition unit 121 and the learning model generated by the model generation unit 103. With this configuration, it is possible to acquire expected operation information even if the operation information corresponding to the door condition information acquired by the door condition information acquisition unit 121 is not stored in the operation information storage unit 112. Therefore, it is possible to save the effort of collecting operation information corresponding to all door condition information in advance by conducting experiments in which automatic doors with various configurations and setting values are actually operated.

In this embodiment, the door condition information acquisition unit 121 supplies the acquired door condition information to the expected operation information acquisition unit 122, but is not limited to this and may also supply it to the expected operation information provision unit 104.

[Third embodiment]
A third embodiment of the present invention will be described below. In the drawings and description of the third embodiment, the same or equivalent components and members as those of the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals. Explanations that overlap with the first embodiment will be omitted as appropriate, and the description will focus on the configurations that differ from the first embodiment.

Refer to FIG. 12. The door installation diagnosis support device 1 of this embodiment further includes a comparison unit 105 that compares the expected operation information acquired by the expected operation information acquisition unit 122 with the actual operation information acquired by the actual operation information acquisition unit 123, and an information presentation unit 106 that presents the comparison result of the comparison unit 105.

The output unit 102 of this embodiment outputs the expected operation information and the actual operation information to the comparison unit 105. The comparison unit 105 compares the expected operation information and the actual operation information output from the output unit 102. The comparison unit 105 of this embodiment generates a graph showing the expected operation information and the actual operation information superimposed on each other as the comparison result, for example, as shown in FIG. 6 etc. The comparison unit 105 supplies the comparison result to the information presentation unit 106. The information presentation unit 106 presents the comparison result. The information presentation unit 106 of this embodiment displays a graph showing the expected operation information and the actual operation information superimposed on each other on a display screen of a work terminal or the like.

According to this embodiment, the results of a comparison between expected operation information and actual operation information are presented, making it easier to diagnose the installation status of automatic doors.

In this embodiment, a graph showing the expected operation information and the actual operation information superimposed is presented, but this is not limited to this. For example, a graph in which the expected operation information and the actual operation information are arranged side by side may be presented. Also, for example, a difference in at least one of the drive current, drive voltage, speed, and acceleration at the same elapsed time or stroke value in the expected operation information and the actual operation information may be presented. In this embodiment, the expected operation information and the actual operation information are supplied to the comparison unit 105 via the output unit 102, but this is not limited to this, and the expected operation information and the actual operation information may be supplied from the expected operation information acquisition unit 122 and the actual operation information acquisition unit 123, respectively.

[Fourth embodiment]
A fourth embodiment of the present invention will be described below. In the drawings and description of the fourth embodiment, the same or equivalent components and members as those of the third embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals. Descriptions that overlap with the third embodiment will be omitted as appropriate, and the description will focus on the configurations that differ from the third embodiment.

Refer to FIG. 13. The door installation diagnosis support device 1 of this embodiment further includes a suitability determination unit 107.

The comparison unit 105 in this embodiment supplies the comparison result to the suitability judgment unit 107. The comparison result in this embodiment is the difference between at least one of the drive current, drive voltage, speed, and acceleration at the same elapsed time or stroke value in the expected operation information and the actual operation information. The suitability judgment unit 107 judges the suitability of the construction state of the automatic door 100 based on the comparison result. For example, if the difference is smaller than a predetermined threshold, the suitability judgment unit 107 judges that the construction state of the automatic door 100 is appropriate, and if the difference is equal to or greater than the predetermined threshold, the suitability judgment unit 107 judges that the construction state of the automatic door 100 is inappropriate. The suitability judgment unit 107 supplies the judgment result to the information presentation unit 106. The information presentation unit 106 further displays the judgment result supplied from the suitability judgment unit 107 on the display screen of the work terminal or the like in addition to the comparison result. Additionally, for example, if it is determined that the construction state of the automatic door 100 is not appropriate, the information presentation unit 106 may cause the LED of the work terminal to flash or emit a buzzer sound.

According to this embodiment, by displaying the suitability of the construction status of the automatic door 100, workers can more easily understand the construction status of the automatic door.

[Fifth embodiment]
Hereinafter, a fifth embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the drawings and description of the fifth embodiment, the same or equivalent components and members as those of the fourth embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals. Descriptions that overlap with those of the fourth embodiment will be omitted as appropriate, and the following description will focus on the configurations that differ from those of the fourth embodiment.

Refer to FIG. 14. The door installation diagnosis support device 1 of the fifth embodiment includes a specification unit 108 instead of the suitability determination unit 107 of the fourth embodiment.

Based on the comparison result of the comparison unit 105, the identification unit 108 identifies a portion of the installed automatic door 100 that has not been installed properly. For example, the identification unit 108 identifies that the power transmission belt 51 has not been installed properly when the difference in the running speed (see FIG. 6) at the start of the opening operation is equal to or greater than a certain level. Specifically, based on the comparison result of the comparison unit 105, the identification unit 108 identifies that there is an abnormality in the power transmission belt 51 when there is a difference of equal to or greater than a certain level between the running speed when the automatic door is opening or closing so as to be accelerated to the first speed in the expected operation information and the running speed when the installed automatic door is opening or closing so as to be accelerated to the first speed in the actual operation information.

For example, the identification unit 108 identifies that the construction state of the door section 10 is not appropriate when the difference in the drive current (see FIG. 7) during the acceleration control operation and the difference in the drive voltage (see FIG. 8) during the deceleration control operation are equal to or greater than a certain level. Specifically, based on the comparison result of the comparison unit 105, the identification unit 108 identifies that the mass of the door section 10 of the automatic door set as a parameter for the operation control of the constructed automatic door is different from the actual mass of the door section 10 when there is a difference of equal to or greater than a certain level between the current value of the motor 41 when the automatic door is operating to be accelerated to a first speed in the expected operation information and the current value of the motor 41 when the constructed automatic door is operating to be accelerated to the first speed in the actual operation information, or between the voltage value of the motor 41 when the automatic door is operating to be decelerated to a second speed in the expected operation information and the voltage value of the motor 41 when the constructed automatic door is operating to be decelerated to the second speed. The identification unit 108 supplies the identification result to the information presentation unit 106.

The information presentation unit 106 further displays the identification results supplied from the identification unit 108 on a display screen of a work terminal or the like. For example, the information presentation unit 106 may display the identification results in text, or may display an image of an automatic door in which the areas that have not been properly installed are highlighted (e.g., by blinking, etc.).

According to the fifth embodiment, by indicating areas of the automatic door 100 that are not properly installed, workers can more easily grasp the installation status of the automatic door for each area.
