TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of elevator technology, in particular to an elevator door lock contact resistance detection and voltage monitoring system and method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the rapid development of urban modernization, elevators, as a vertical transportation tool, have been widely used in people's work and life, and play an important role in transporting passengers and goods. The elevator car door and the landing door play a safety protection role, and the door lock contact is used to determine whether the elevator door is closed. As to whether the door lock contact is closed, a special detection point is set to detect the car door and the landing door respectively. If the door lock contact is not closed, the elevator cannot operate normally.
[0003] GB / T 7588.1-2020 "Safety Code for the Construction and Installation of Elevators Part 1: Passenger and Freight Elevators" requires that when the car is in the unlocking area, the car door is opened and the landing door lock is released, the electrical safety device for checking the closing position of the car door, the electrical safety device for checking the locking position of the landing door locking device and the correct action of the monitoring signal should be monitored. If the failure of the above-mentioned device is monitored, the normal operation of the elevator should be prevented.
[0004] Currently, door lock detection mainly aims at the closing condition of the car door lock contact and the landing door lock contact. The closing of the door lock contact will output a detection signal to the elevator control system (hereinafter referred to as "system"), and the safety circuit and the car door lock hall door lock circuit must be connected to attract the contactor, so that the elevator can operate normally. If the door lock contact is not connected, the contactor will not be attracted, and the system state can be checked to check whether the detection signal is normal.
[0005] However, the door lock contact will have a small electric arc phenomenon every time it is disconnected. Over time, the surface of the contact will be charred, and the resistance of the contact will increase. Or the door lock contact is covered with dust and other fine foreign matter, and the resistance of the contact will also increase. These conditions will cause the voltage drop in the circuit passing through the door lock contact to increase, and when the voltage drops to a certain value, the contactor will not be normally attracted, but the door lock contact is still in a normal closed state.
[0006] The current elevator control system cannot detect the above special state, and will not give a fault prompt. This results in the need to arrange maintenance personnel to carry out special inspection on site to find out the problem, and sometimes it is difficult for maintenance personnel to find the real reason why the contactor cannot be attracted, which prolongs the maintenance time and affects the use of the elevator.
[0007] Moreover, the current door lock needs to be regularly maintained by maintenance personnel on site to check whether it is in normal condition, especially for high-rise buildings with many floors, which is quite time-consuming and laborious for maintenance personnel to check comprehensively.
[0008] Therefore, the existing elevator door lock fault detection technology cannot detect the special state of large pressure drop but normal contact closure, and the artificial one-by-one floor investigation is time-consuming and labor-intensive. SUMMARY
