Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to a non-contact operation detection device and an elevator destination floor registration system. Background Technology

[0002] Patent Document 1 describes a non-contact operation detection device for vehicles, enabling operators to perform non-contact operations such as opening and closing vehicle rear doors and sliding doors. This non-contact operation detection device uses sensor electrodes to detect operations based on changes in electrostatic capacitance when a part of the operator's body approaches the device. In the non-contact operation detection device of Patent Document 1, the sensor electrode is disposed on one side of a spacer, and a first electrode is disposed on the side opposite to the spacer. In Patent Document 1, by using the spacer to support the sensor electrode and the first electrode, changes in stray capacitance caused by vibration, etc., are prevented, thereby suppressing changes in the detection value of the sensor electrode caused by vibration.

[0005] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2014-212044 Summary of the Invention

[0006] The problem that the invention aims to solve

[0007] For example, in a destination floor registration device for registering elevator floors, there is a device that sets each push-button as a contactless button that can be operated by the user without contact. In this destination floor registration device, the change in electrostatic capacitance when a user's finger or other object approaches the contactless button is detected by a proximity sensor on the contactless button, and the user determines whether the contactless button has been operated and registers the destination floor.

[0008] However, in destination floor registration devices using contactless buttons, parasitic capacitance changes due to vibration or impact, potentially leading to false detections of contactless button operation. To address this, spacers can be installed on each contactless button, as in Patent Document 1, to suppress false detections caused by vibration or impact. However, elevator destination floor registration devices have multiple contactless buttons corresponding to the number of floors. If spacers are installed to suppress false detections caused by vibration or impact, spacers would be needed for all contactless buttons, resulting in an expected increase in the number of components and manufacturing steps, and thus increased manufacturing costs. Furthermore, installing spacers on each contactless button increases the thickness of the button and the overall thickness of the device, or makes it impossible to install contactless buttons in contactless operation detection devices that cannot accommodate such a thickness.

[0009] This disclosure was made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and provides an improved non-contact operation detection device that can suppress false detections when vibration or impact occurs without adding spacers or other components to the non-contact button.

[0010] Methods for solving problems

[0011] The non-contact operation detection device disclosed herein has a determination unit. When the determination unit determines that the detection value of any one or more of the multiple proximity sensors of the multiple non-contact buttons is greater than the registered determination value, it determines whether the change in the detection value of the proximity sensor is caused by vibration or impact based on the change in the detection value of the second proximity sensor, which is smaller than the change in the detection value of the first proximity sensor with the largest change in detection value.

[0012] Invention Effects

[0013] According to the non-contact operation detection device of this disclosure, it is possible to determine whether a change in the detection value of the second proximity sensor of the non-contact button is due to vibration or impact, based on the detection value. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the situation where a false detection of non-contact button operation is made based on a change in the detection value of the proximity sensor caused by vibration or impact.

[0023] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Furthermore, in each drawing, the same or corresponding parts are labeled with the same reference numerals, and their descriptions are simplified or omitted.

[0024] Implementation method 1.

[0025] Figure 1 This is a block diagram illustrating an example of the overall structure of the elevator destination floor registration system of Implementation Method 1. Figure 1 The elevator destination floor registration system shown has an operation panel 100 as a non-contact operation detection device and an elevator control device 200.

[0026] The control panel 100 is installed in each elevator car, allowing users to register their destination floor. However, the location of the control panel 100 is not limited; it can also be installed at an elevator landing.

[0027] The control panel 100 has multiple contactless buttons 110, a sensor control device 120, and a button control device 130. The contactless buttons 110 each have a mechanical button 111, an LED 112 as an illumination unit, and a proximity sensor 113.

[0028] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of the structure of an operation panel. The operation panel 100 has multiple contactless buttons 110a to 110h. Figure 2 In the example shown, the control panel 100 is equipped with contactless buttons 110a-110f, each displaying numbers "1" to "6" on its front surface, corresponding to the floors that can be registered as elevator destinations, and contactless buttons 110g and 110h for opening and closing the car doors. Furthermore, Figure 2 The structure of the control panel 100 shown is an example; the number, type, and configuration of contactless buttons are not limited to this. Figure 2 Examples. The control panel 100 can adopt various structures depending on its use and purpose.

[0029] Refer again Figure 1The mechanical button 111 detects when it is physically pressed and sends an ON signal indicating that the contactless button 110 corresponding to the mechanical button 111 has been pressed.

[0030] The proximity sensor 113 is a sensor that emits a detection value corresponding to a change in electrostatic capacitance. The proximity sensor 113 is electrically connected to the sensor control device 120. The detection value of the proximity sensor 113 is sent to the sensor control device 120.

[0031] The sensor control device 120 includes a reading unit 121, a candidate button determination unit 122, a vibration and shock determination unit 123, an LED control unit 124, a button activation determination unit 125, and a transmitting unit 126. The reading unit 121 reads detection values ​​from the proximity sensors 113 of all non-contact buttons 110. The candidate button determination unit 122 detects and registers candidate buttons based on the detection values ​​read by the reading unit 121 and outputs information about the registered candidate buttons. The vibration and shock determination unit 123 determines whether fluctuations in the detection values ​​are caused by vibration or shock based on the information about the registered candidate buttons and the detection values ​​read by the reading unit 121. Based on this determination result, the LED control unit 124 half-lit the LED 112 of the registered candidate button. The button activation determination unit 125 determines whether the non-contact operation of the registered candidate button has lasted for a reference time or longer. Based on this determination result, the transmitting unit 126 sends an activation signal to the button control device 130 indicating that the non-contact button 110 corresponding to the registered candidate button has been operated.

[0032] The push-button control device 130 is communicatively connected to the elevator control device 200, and is also communicatively connected to the mechanical push-button 111, LED 112, and sensor control device 120.

[0033] The button control device 130 receives an activation signal from the mechanical button 111 or the sensor control device 120, converts the activation signal into destination floor information, and sends the destination floor information to the elevator control device 200. The elevator control device 200 registers the call to the destination floor based on the destination floor information. Upon completion of the destination floor registration, the elevator control device 200 sends a destination floor registration completion message to the button control device 130.

[0034] Furthermore, the button control device 130 controls the lighting and extinguishing of the LED 112. For example, when the button control device 130 receives destination floor registration completion information from the elevator control device 200, it lights up the LED 112 of the contactless button 110 corresponding to the destination floor registration completion information. Conversely, when the button control device 130 receives information from the elevator control device 200 that the elevator car has arrived at the destination floor corresponding to the destination floor registration completion information, it turns off the LED 112 of the contactless button 110 corresponding to that destination floor.

[0035] As described above, in this embodiment, the contactless button 110 has both a mechanical button 111 and a proximity sensor 113. Users can register the destination floor by physically pressing the contactless button 110 with their fingers, and can also register the destination floor by non-contactly bringing a part of their body, such as a finger, close to the contactless button 110.

[0036] First, let's explain the situation where the destination floor is registered through physical operations. Figure 3 This diagram illustrates an example of physical operation of the control panel in this embodiment. The control panel 100 has contactless buttons 110, each of which is a mechanical button 111, allowing the user to register the destination floor by pressing the contactless buttons 110.

[0037] More specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown in the example, when user A presses the contactless button 110 corresponding to the 6th floor (the destination floor), the mechanical button 111 of the contactless button 110 corresponding to the 6th floor responds, and the activation signal of the contactless button 110 corresponding to the 6th floor is sent to the button control device 130. The button control device 130 converts the activation signal of the contactless button 110 corresponding to the 6th floor into destination floor information representing the 6th floor and sends it to the elevator control device 200. The elevator control device 200 registers the received destination floor information and sends a destination floor information registration completion message to the button control device 130. When the button control device 130 receives the destination floor registration completion message, it illuminates the LED 112 of the contactless button 110 corresponding to the 6th floor.

[0038] Furthermore, during physical operation of the contactless button 110, a detection value from the proximity sensor 113 (described later) is output, and this detection value becomes sufficiently large compared to the value during contactless operation. Therefore, it can be configured such that if the detection value from the proximity sensor 113 is sufficiently large to be considered a physical operation, then a physical operation is determined, and the contactless operation detection by the proximity sensor 113 (described later) is not performed, thereby preventing false responses caused by the proximity sensor 113 during physical operation.

[0039] Next, we will explain the situation of registering the destination floor through contactless operation. Figure 4 This diagram illustrates an example of non-contact operation of the control panel in this embodiment. Figure 5 This is a graph showing the changes in the proximity sensor's detection values ​​during non-contact operation.

[0040] In non-contact operation, such as Figure 4 As shown, when user A's finger or similar object approaches the contactless button 110, the LED 112 of the contactless button 110 becomes half-lit. If the proximity continues for a reference time, the LED 112 becomes fully lit. At this time, the registration for the destination floor is complete.

[0041] like Figure 5 As shown, when user A's finger or other hand approaches the contactless button 110, the detection value of the first sensor of the proximity sensor 113, which is the proximity sensor of the contactless button 110, increases significantly. Figure 5 As shown, if the state where only the detection value of the first sensor is greater than the registration determination value persists for a reference time or longer, a non-contact operation is detected, and registration is performed for the destination floor corresponding to the non-contact button 110 equipped with the first sensor. Furthermore, the registration determination value here is a threshold used to determine whether a user has performed a non-contact operation, and it is a value pre-set and stored in the sensor control device 120 based on the detection value shown by the proximity sensor 113 during a non-contact operation.

[0042] A more specific non-contact operation detection action based on sensor control device 120 will be described. In non-contact operation detection, the reading unit 121 reads the detection values ​​of all proximity sensors 113 in a certain control cycle, for example.

[0043] The candidate button determination unit 122 obtains data representing the change in the detection values ​​of each of the proximity sensors 113 from a time earlier than the current time to the current time, based on the detection value data read by the reading unit 121. It then determines the proximity sensor 113 with the largest change in detection value during the determination period as the first sensor. Furthermore, if the current detection value 'a' of the first sensor exceeds the registration determination value, the non-contact button 110 of that proximity sensor 113 is determined as a registration candidate button. However, if the destination floor corresponding to the non-contact button 110 has already been registered and the LED 112 of the non-contact button 110 is already lit, it is not designated as a registration candidate button. Additionally, if there are proximity sensors 113 other than the first sensor that exceed the registration determination value, erroneous responses during non-contact operation can be prevented by setting the process of not determining a registration candidate button.

[0044] The vibration and shock determination unit 123 performs the following vibration and shock determination process: determining whether the change in the detection value of the first sensor is caused by vibration or shock. Details of the processing by the vibration and shock determination unit 123 will be described later. If the vibration and shock determination unit 123 determines that the change in the detection value of the first sensor is not caused by vibration or shock, the LED control unit 124 half-lit the LED 112 of the registration candidate button.

[0045] The button activation determination unit 125 determines whether the non-contact operation of the candidate button has lasted for a reference time or longer. That is, it determines whether the state in which the detection value of the first sensor exceeds the registration determination value has lasted for a reference time or longer. If the button activation determination unit 125 determines that the operation has lasted for a reference time or longer, the sending unit 126 sends an activation signal to the button control device 130 for the non-contact button 110, which is the candidate button for registration. Subsequent registration processing is the same as during physical operation and is therefore omitted.

[0046] Next, the vibration and impact judgment and processing will be explained. Figure 6 This diagram illustrates an example of the change in the detection values ​​of the proximity sensors when the control panel experiences vibration or impact. When vibration or impact occurs, the parasitic capacitance changes in the proximity sensors 113 of the multiple contactless buttons 110. Consequently, even when nothing is near the contactless button 110, the detection value of the proximity sensor 113 changes. In this embodiment, by processing the vibration and impact determination unit 123 to determine whether the change in the detection value of the first sensor corresponding to the registered candidate button is due to vibration or impact, false detections of contactless operation caused by changes in detection values ​​associated with vibration or impact are suppressed.

[0047] The vibration and shock determination unit 123, based on the detection value read in by the reading unit 121, determines the proximity sensor 113 (i.e., the first sensor) whose detection value is only smaller than that of the candidate button to be registered as the second sensor. Furthermore, if the detection value b determined to be the second sensor is larger than the vibration and shock determination value, and the characteristics of the change in the detection value during the determination period of the second sensor show characteristics different from the characteristics of the change in the detection value during non-contact operation, it is determined that vibration or shock has occurred. In this case, the vibration and shock determination unit 123 cancels the registration process for the candidate button. Here, the vibration and shock determination value is a value smaller than the registration determination value, and is a value preset and stored in the sensor control device 120 based on the change in the detection value shown by the proximity sensor 113 when subjected to vibration and shock.

[0048] In this embodiment, as a method for determining whether different characteristics are displayed, a determination is made based on whether the slope c of the change in the detected value during the determination period of the second sensor is greater than a slope threshold. That is, if the detected value of the second sensor increases sharply with a high slope, it is determined that the change is caused by vibration or impact. In addition, to avoid false determinations, the slope c of the change is designed as the average slope of the period from when the detected value of the second sensor changes sharply from a value near a minimum value smaller than the vibration and impact determination threshold to a value near a maximum value larger than the vibration determination threshold, and the average slope of the period with a large change in detected value is used. The slope threshold is a threshold used to determine whether the change characteristics of the detected value data of the proximity sensor 113 show the same characteristics as the change characteristics during non-contact operation, and it is a value preset and stored in the sensor control device 120 based on the change in detected value shown by the proximity sensor 113 during non-contact operation.

[0049] Figure 7 This is a flowchart illustrating an example of the vibration and shock determination process performed by the sensor control device of this embodiment. Figure 7 Actions such as those performed repeatedly at certain controlled intervals. Figure 7 In the vibration and impact determination process, in step S101, the detection values ​​of all proximity sensors 113 are read in by the reading unit 121.

[0050] Next, in step S102, based on the change data of the detected value during the determination period, the sensor with the largest change in the detected value is determined as the first sensor.

[0051] Next, in step S103, it is determined whether the destination floor corresponding to the contactless button 110 of the first sensor has been registered. If the destination floor has been registered, the current process ends.

[0052] On the other hand, if it is determined in step S103 that the destination floor is not registered, then the process in step S104 is executed. In step S104, it is determined whether the current detection value 'a' of the first sensor read in step S101 exceeds the registration determination value. If it is determined in step S103 that the detection value 'a' of the first sensor does not exceed the registration determination value, the current process ends. In this case, the destination floor is not registered.

[0053] On the other hand, if it is determined in step S104 that the detection value a of the first sensor exceeds the registered determination value, then in step S105, based on the change data of the detection value during the determination period, the sensor whose change in detection value is only less than that of the first sensor is determined as the second sensor.

[0054] Next, in step S106, it is determined whether the detection value b of the second sensor read in step S101 exceeds the registration determination value. If it is determined in step S106 that the detection value b of the second sensor exceeds the registration determination value, the current process ends. In this case, the registration process for the destination floor is not performed.

[0055] On the other hand, if it is determined in step S106 that the detection value b of the second sensor does not exceed the registered determination value, then in step S107, it is determined whether the detection value b of the second sensor exceeds the vibration and shock determination value.

[0056] If it is determined in step S107 that the detection value b of the second sensor exceeds the vibration and impact determination value, then in step S108, it is determined whether the slope c of the change of the detection value during the determination period exceeds the slope threshold.

[0057] If the slope c exceeds the slope threshold in step S108, the current process ends. That is, if the value of the detection value b of the second sensor is greater than the vibration and impact judgment value and the slope c of the change of the detection value of the second sensor is greater than the slope threshold, it can be determined that the detection value of the proximity sensor 113 is a value that changes due to vibration or impact. Therefore, the registration process for the destination floor is not performed.

[0058] On the other hand, if in step S107 it is determined that the detection value b of the second sensor does not exceed the vibration and impact determination value, or in step S108 it is determined that the slope c of the change in the detection value of the second sensor does not exceed the slope threshold, then in step S109 the non-contact button 110 corresponding to the first sensor is set as the registration candidate button.

[0059] Next, in step S110, it is determined whether the registration candidate button has been registered for a reference time or longer. That is, based on the change data of the detection value during the determination period, it is determined whether the state in which the detection value of the first sensor is above the registration determination value has been maintained for a reference time or longer.

[0060] If it is determined in step S110 that the duration has not exceeded the reference time, in step S111, the LED111 of the candidate button is half-lit. Then, the process ends.

[0061] On the other hand, if it is determined in step S110 that the registration has lasted for more than the reference time, an activation signal for the registration candidate button is sent to the button control device 130 in step S112. Then, the current process ends. Furthermore, after the activation signal is sent to the button control device 130, as described above, the destination floor information is sent from the button control device 130 to the elevator control device 200. When the button control device 130 receives the destination floor registration completion information from the elevator control device 200, it illuminates the LED 112 of the registration candidate button.

[0062] As explained above, according to this embodiment, in the operation panel 100 having multiple contactless buttons 110, it is possible to determine whether the change in the detection value caused by the proximity sensor of the contactless button is due to the user's contactless operation or due to vibration and impact, without the need for additional structures. Therefore, without adding components to the operation panel 100, false detection of the destination floor due to vibration or impact can be suppressed.

[0063] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the following situation is described: In the vibration and shock determination process, it is determined whether the change in the detection value of the proximity sensor 113 shows characteristics different from those during non-contact operation, based on whether the slope c of the second sensor exceeds a slope threshold. However, the determination of whether the change in the detection value shows characteristics different from those during non-contact operation can also be performed by other methods.

[0064] For example, regarding the first sensor, it can be configured such that, similarly to the second sensor, the slope of the change in the detected value during the determination period is calculated, and if the difference between the calculated slope and the slope c of the second sensor is less than a reference difference, it is determined that a different characteristic is displayed. Furthermore, not limited to this determination method, the occurrence of vibration or impact can also be determined based on characteristics of other changes in detected values ​​that are not visible during non-contact operation but are visible when vibration or impact occurs. Furthermore, it is not limited to comparing the detected values ​​of the first sensor and the second sensor. It is also possible to sequentially determine a third sensor whose change is only smaller than that of the second sensor, a fourth sensor whose change is only smaller than that of the third sensor, etc., and combine and compare the change data of the detected values ​​of multiple such sensors with the characteristics of the change in the detected values ​​when vibration or impact occurs to determine whether vibration or impact has occurred.

[0065] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a non-contact operation detection device is described as the operating panel 100 of the elevator's destination floor registration system. However, the non-contact operation detection device of this embodiment is not limited to this, and can also be used as other non-contact detection devices having multiple non-contact buttons and detecting non-contact operations.

[0066] Furthermore, the sensor control device 120 includes a reading unit 121, a candidate button determination unit 122, a vibration and impact determination unit 123, an LED control unit 124, a button activation determination unit 125, and a transmitting unit 126, all implemented by processing circuitry. This processing circuitry can be dedicated hardware or a CPU (Central Processing Unit) that executes programs stored in memory.

[0067] Implementation method 2.

[0068] Figure 8 This is a block diagram illustrating a structural example of the elevator destination floor registration system according to Embodiment 2. The elevator destination floor registration system of Embodiment 2 is identical to the elevator destination floor registration system of Embodiment 1, except that the sensor control device 120 has a correction unit 127.

[0069] The calibration unit 127 converts the detection values ​​of each proximity sensor 113 read by the reading unit 121 into absolute values. The vibration and shock determination unit acquires the detection value data during the determination period when the calibration unit 127 converts the data into absolute values, and determines the vibration and shock based on the detection value data converted into absolute values.

[0070] Figure 9 This is a flowchart illustrating an example of the vibration and impact determination process in this embodiment. Figure 9 The actions shown, besides having the processing of step S201, are similar to... Figure 6 The processing actions are the same.

[0071] Specifically, in Figure 9 In the processing steps, after determining in step S104 that the detection value 'a' of the first sensor is greater than the registered determination value, the detection values ​​read in step S101 are converted into absolute values. In subsequent steps S105 and beyond, the detection value data converted to absolute values ​​is used.

[0072] As explained above, in this embodiment, the detection values ​​of each proximity sensor are converted into absolute values ​​during the vibration and impact determination process. Therefore, even if the detection value of proximity sensor 113 shifts to the negative side due to vibration or impact, vibration or impact can still be determined. Thus, the presence or absence of vibration or impact can be determined with high accuracy.

[0073] Furthermore, when numerical values ​​such as the number, quantity, amount, and range of each element are mentioned in the above embodiments, each element is not limited to the mentioned numerical values, unless specifically stated or clearly determined in principle. Additionally, the structures described in these embodiments are not necessarily essential, unless specifically stated or clearly determined in principle.
