Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of elevator control, and in particular to a control system for an elevator in the event of an abnormality or failure. Background Art
[0002] Traditional elevator control basically uses the collection of sensor signals from various sensors to make judgments, and controls the elevator by determining whether the sensor signals are deviated. For example, the weight balance system uses the weight sensor or limit sensor installed on the weight balance system to determine whether the elevator car is overloaded or has severe shaking. However, elevator operation control often fails due to misjudgment of the signal sensor (the error is not necessarily caused by sensor failure, but may also be caused by external violent use). Summary of the invention
[0003] In view of this, the object of the present invention is to provide a control system for an elevator in the event of an abnormality or failure, comprising:
[0004] a monitoring device for monitoring elevator failures and a control device for controlling elevator operation, the monitoring device being connected to the control device;
[0005] The monitoring device comprises at least one monitor, and the monitor comprises:
[0006] A signal receiving unit, used for obtaining monitoring signals corresponding to at least a weight balance system and an electric traction system when receiving an elevator operation instruction;
[0007] A first judgment unit, wherein the first judgment unit is configured to make a preliminary threshold comparison on the monitoring signal and then make a pre-judgment to obtain a pre-processed signal after basic pre-judgment;
[0008] A processing unit, the processing unit comprising:
[0009] Correction procedures;
[0010] The processing module includes a first processor and a second processor, and the running state of the elevator is controlled by performing double processing by the first processor and the second processor.
[0011] Furthermore, the weight balancing system is used for:
[0012] Set the balance car deadweight (Ⅰ);
[0013] Obtaining a load monitoring signal formed by detecting the load (II);

[0015] Furthermore, the electric traction system is used to obtain an elevator running speed monitoring signal.
[0016] Furthermore, the first processing module has:
[0017] Logic control unit;
[0018] A program parsing unit, coupled to the logic control unit and the correction program, based on one or more logic rules for program driving set in the logic control unit, and one or more logic rules for program driving are written in the first driver and the second driver;
[0019] A first processing program capable of being controlled and operated by logic rules is generated with the first processor as a carrier; and the first processing program with the first processor as a carrier is configured to perform signal analog conversion on the preprocessed signal and the original monitoring signal respectively under the logic control of the logic rules, and to perform discrete sampling to obtain a number of continuous sampling points during the conversion process, and to perform wide-range abnormality detection and correction according to a set range with the amplitude values of the sampling points obtained by discrete sampling;
[0020] A second processing program that can be controlled and run according to logic rules is generated using the second processor as a carrier; and the second processing program using the second processor as a carrier is configured to generate a waveform signal with timing as a reference from the obtained monitoring signal under the logical control of the logic rules, and perform waveform amplitude detection on the generated waveform signal and then calibrate it with the deviation from the reference threshold as a correction reference.
[0021] Furthermore, the first determination unit has:
[0022] A judgment network composed of a plurality of first judgment units, and a control node coupled to each first judgment unit;
[0023] The control node is used to set the judgment control logic of the control node according to the encoding of the sensor signal, so that the formation signal corresponding to the monitoring signal can be decomposed before the monitoring signal is transmitted to the judgment network, so that the obtained several monitoring signals can be correspondingly transmitted to the first judgment unit, and the preliminary prediction of the sensor signal can be performed by setting the preliminary threshold in the first judgment unit.
[0024] Furthermore, the preliminary prediction refers to:
[0025] Identify and verify the type and source of the sensor signal;
[0026] A wide range of deviation judgment is performed on the sensor signal to determine whether the sensor signal has a large jitter exceeding the set upper limit value, and the cause of the large jitter is determined in combination with the continuity of the timing of the sensor signal.

It is judged whether the first deviation value corresponding to the first output is within a set range. If so, a first feedback signal is formed. The control device receives the first feedback signal and executes the elevator operation instruction. If not, a buffer program set in the control device is executed. The buffer program is linked to the emergency warning program to perform joint prohibition braking on the electric traction system. At the same time, the control device sends the feedback instruction formed by the joint prohibition braking of the electric traction system to the second accurate judgment unit so that the second accurate judgment unit is actuated. The second accurate judgment unit judges whether the second deviation value corresponding to the second output is within a set range. If so, a second feedback signal is formed. After the control device receives the second feedback signal, it terminates the joint prohibition braking of the electric traction system and executes the elevator operation instruction at the same time. If not, a braking program set in the control device is executed. The braking program performs joint prohibition braking on the electric traction system, and the emergency warning program issues a warning to the weight balance system until the weight balance system recovers the initial balance.
