Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to an operation panel for an elevator car, and more particularly to a rotating operation panel.

[Technical Background of the Invention] In recent years, elevator cars have been provided with an operation panel on a part of the side plate constituting the peripheral wall inside the car, and this operation panel includes an operation switch, a destination floor registration button, a floor indicator, etc. A device that directly incorporates operating equipment and display equipment into one unit is often used.

For such an elevator car, the fourth car is
The one shown in the figure is known.

That is, at the entrance/exit 2 in the car 1, an entrance/exit post 3 is erected. A car floor 4 is formed at the lower part of this doorway pillar 3. A side plate 5 is disposed on the outer peripheral edge of the upper surface of the car floor 4.
A baseboard 5a is provided between and the side plate 5. A ceiling 7 is provided above the side plate 5. Further, an operation panel 6 between the entrance pillar 3 and the side plate 5 includes an operation device 8a and a display device 8b.

Such operation panels are shown in Figures 5 and 6.
It is installed inside the car 1 as shown in the figure.

In other words, the operation panel 6
Pins 10a and 10b attached to the upper and lower ends of one side of the column via support fittings 9a and 9b are engaged with hinges 12a and 12b attached to the upper and lower ends of the column 11, so that the column 11 can be opened and closed. The other end of the operation panel 6 is engaged with a locking device 13 provided on the entrance/exit pillar 3 to be locked. On the back of the operation panel 6,
An operating device 8a and a display device 8b are incorporated, and a protective cover 14 is provided surrounding the operating device 8a and display device 8b.

[Problems with the Background Art] However, in such a conventional operation panel, support fittings 9 are installed above and below one end of the operation panel 6.
Pins 10a, 10 attached via a, 9b
b is the hinge 12a provided above and below the support 11,
12b and is rotatably supported, as shown in FIG. When warpage occurs due to its own weight, a problem arises in that a gap A is created between the operation panel 6 and the end surface of the side plate 5 adjacent to the operation panel 6. In particular, the hinges 12a, 12b and the pin 10
A problem arises in that a large gap A is created in the center of the operation panel 6 supported by the panels a and 10b, which significantly reduces the design effect within the car 1.

Further, when an external force is applied to the central portion of the operation panel 6, the gap A becomes even larger, and there is a risk that an accident such as a finger being caught in the gap A may occur.

Therefore, a hinge 12a supporting the operation panel 6,
12b and the pins 10a, 10b, but in such a case, the hinges 12a, 12b and the pins 10a, 10b
It is difficult to make adjustments to align the axes of a and 10b, and as a result, the installation work of the operation panel 6 becomes extremely complicated.

[Object of the Invention] The present invention has been made in response to the above-mentioned conventional situation, and aims to eliminate the gap that occurs between the operation panel and the contact surface between the operation panel and the side plate adjacent to the operation panel when the operation panel is closed. To provide an operation panel for an elevator car that can effectively prevent deterioration of design effect and also prevent the risk of accidents.

[Summary of the Invention] That is, in the operation panel of the elevator car of the present invention, one end of the front surface of the operation panel, which is arranged on the entrance/exit side of the car and is elongated in the vertical direction, is connected to the side plate adjacent to the operation panel. In the operation panel of an elevator car, the operation panel of the elevator car is arranged so as to be in contact with the edge of the operation panel, and the upper and lower ends of the side plate side of the operation panel are rotatably supported by a pair of support members, the center between the pair of support members. On the back of the operation panel,
The present invention is characterized in that a pressing metal fitting for pressing the operation panel against the edge of the side plate is fixed.

[Embodiments of the Invention] Examples of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings.

1 and 2 show an operation panel of an elevator car according to an embodiment of the present invention, in which pins 10a and 10b are installed at the top and bottom of one end of the operation panel 6 via supports 9a and 9b. It is provided. These pins 10a and 10b are connected to the hinge 12 of the support column 11.
a and 12b, respectively, so that the operation panel 6 is rotatably supported. At the center position between the pins 10a and 10b of the operation panel 6, there is a base 1 with a nut 15b welded to a locking hole 15a.
5 is fixed. Locking hole 1 of this base 15
5a is a press fitting 16 with a long hole 16a bored therein.
is fixed with a bolt 17, and the tip of this press fitting 16 is in contact with the support column 11.

In the operation panel of the elevator car configured as described above, the press fitting 16 fixed to the base 15 is connected to the elongated hole 16a formed in the press fitting 16.
, the tip of this pressing metal fitting 16 comes into contact with the support column 11 and presses the operation panel 6 toward the side plate 5, so a gap is created between the operation panel 6 and the side plate 5 adjacent to this operation panel 6. This effectively prevents deterioration of the design effect. Furthermore, even if an external force is applied to the gap, since the press fitting 16 presses from the back side of the operation panel 6, no gap will be created, and as a result, accidents such as fingers getting caught in the gap can be prevented. can.

Note that when the operation panel 6 is opened, the press fitting 16 moves in a direction away from the support column 11, so that the rotational movement of the operation panel 6 is not supported.

Furthermore, if the press fitting 16 used in the embodiments described above is made of an elastic body such as a spring material, its elastic effect can be improved and distortion of the operation panel 6 can be prevented.

FIG. 3 shows another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, a fixture 18 having a screw hole 18a is fixed to the support column 11. , a pressing bolt 19a is screwed through a fixing nut 19b. Further, a catch seat 20 is fixed to the back surface of the operation panel 6.
This receiving seat 20 has the above-mentioned pressing bolt 19a.
The tips of the two are in contact with each other.

In the operation panel of the elevator car constructed in this way, a fixture 18 is fixed to the support column 11, a press bolt 19a is screwed into the fixture 18, and the tip of the press bolt 19a is attached to the back surface of the operation panel 6. Since the operation panel 6 is pressed against the side plate 5 side by coming into contact with the fixed receiving seat 20, the generation of a gap between the operation panel 6 and the side plate 5 adjacent to the operation panel 6 can be effectively prevented and the design can be improved. A decrease in effectiveness can be prevented. Furthermore, even if an external force is applied to the joint between the operation panel 6 and the side plate 5, since the pressure bolt 19a presses the operation panel 6 from the back side, there will be no gap, and as a result, fingers may get caught in the gap. accidents can be prevented.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the elevator car operation panel of the present invention, since the central part of the back surface of the operation panel is pressed by the pressing metal fitting, the operation panel and the adjacent operation panel It is possible to effectively prevent the occurrence of a gap between the side plate and the contact surface. As a result, it is possible to provide an elevator car operation panel with a high design effect.
