[0026] Hereinafter, each embodiment related to the elevator and the manufacturing method of the elevator of the present invention will be described in detail based on the drawings. In addition, in each of the embodiments described below, the same reference numerals are assigned to the same components, and repeated descriptions are omitted.

[0027] <<First Embodiment>>

[0028] <Elevator>

[0029] Figure 1This is an external view of the car 1 of the elevator according to the first embodiment. In addition, Figure 2 This is a schematic cross-sectional view of the elevator car 1 in the horizontal direction according to the first embodiment, Figure 3 This is a view of the elevator car 1 according to the first embodiment as observed from the inside. The elevator car 1 shown in these figures has a car door 10 for passengers to get on and off on one side. On the car side plate 20 arranged close to the car door 10, an operation panel [P] for passengers to operate the car 1 and the car door 10 is provided facing the inside of the car 1. The operation panel [P] is mounted on the car side plate 20 in a state of being housed in the cover member 40 (refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 ).

[0030] Here, the car side plate 20 on which the operation panel [P] is arranged is one of the multiple car side plates that make up the side of the car 1. Here, as an example, it is assumed to be a plate-shaped material that forms a part of the side where the car door 10 is provided. Next, the mounting structure of the operation panel [P] with respect to the car side plate 20 will be described.

[0031] <Mounting structure of the operation panel [P]>

[0032] Figure 4 This is an exploded perspective view showing an example of the mounting structure of the operation panel according to the first embodiment. In addition, Figure 5 This is a main part cross-sectional view showing an example of the mounting structure of the operation panel according to the first embodiment, corresponding to the cross-section A - A' in Figure 1 . With respect to these Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the mounting portion of the operation panel [P] of the elevator car is composed of the car side plate 20, the cover member 40, the bracket 50 (only shown in Figure 4 ) and the adhesive layer 60 (only shown in Figure 5 ). They are as follows.

[0033] [Car side plate 20]

[0034] As described above, the car side plate 20 is a component that makes up the car 1 (refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2) One of the multiple car - side plates on the side - peripheral wall of (), here, as an example, is a plate - like material that forms part of the side where the car door 10 is provided. The car - side plate 20 has a main surface 201 with a substantially rectangular shape. In addition, the car - side plate 20 has two side surfaces 202 extending from the end edges on both sides of the main surface 201 in a direction substantially perpendicular to the main surface 201. In addition, the car - side plate 20 has two top surfaces 203 extending from the end edges in the up - and - down direction of the main surface 201 in a direction substantially perpendicular to the main surface 201. The side surfaces 202 and the top surfaces 203 are parts bent outward from the main surface 201 of the car 1. Thus, the car - side plate 20 is formed into a box shape.

[0035] Such a car - side plate 20 makes the surface facing the outside of the box shape in the main surface 201 face the inside of the car 1, and makes the main surface 201 and the side surfaces 202 substantially perpendicular, and arranges the top surfaces 203 substantially horizontally. An opening 201a is provided at the center of the main surface 201, and the operation surface of the operation panel [P] is arranged relative to the opening 201a.

[0036] In addition, one of the two side surfaces 202 of the car - side plate 20 becomes a decorative plate 202a exposed inside the car 1 (refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 ). A fixing part 204 formed by folding back the end edge of the decorative plate 202a extends from the end edge of the decorative plate 202a in a manner substantially parallel to the main surface 201 toward the inside of the box shape.

[0037] The fixing part 204 has a plurality of fixing holes 24h (here, two) for fixing a bracket 50 described later. Thus, as a structure in which the decorative plate 202a exposed inside the car 1 does not need to be provided with fixing holes 24h, the appearance is ensured. In contrast, the other of the two side surfaces 202 is directly used as a fixing - side surface 202b for the bracket 50 as it is. A plurality of fixing holes 22h (here, two) for fixing the bracket 50 are also provided in the fixing - side surface 202b.

[0038] [Cover member 40]

[0039] The cover member 40 covers and holds the operation panel [P] from the back side, holds the operation panel [P] in a state of covering the operation panel [P] from the outside of the car 1, and is fixed to the main surface 201 of the car - side plate 20. Such a cover member 40 has a main surface 401 with a rectangular shape. The main surface 401 has a shape that is one size larger than the opening 201a of the main surface 201 in the car - side plate 20.

[0040] In addition, the lid member 40 has two side faces 402 extending from the edge portions on both sides of the main face 401 in a direction substantially perpendicular to the main face 401. Further, the lid member 40 has two top faces 403 extending from the edge portions in the vertical direction of the main face 401 in a direction substantially perpendicular to the main face 401. Thus, the lid member 40 is formed into a box shape for housing the operation panel [P], and the box-shaped portion becomes a housing portion for housing the operation panel [P].

[0041] In such a lid member 40, the two top faces 403 serve as fixing portions for the bracket 50 described hereinafter. A plurality of fixing holes 43h (two in this case) for fixing the bracket 50 described hereinafter are respectively provided on the top faces 403 serving as such fixing portions.

[0042] In addition, in the lid member 40, reinforcing plates 404 extend from the edge portions of the two side faces 402. As Figure 5 shown, the reinforcing plate 404 has a fitting portion 404a extending substantially perpendicular to the side face 402 from the edge portion of the side face 402 and a folding-back portion 404b extending in a direction opposite to the side face 402 from the edge portion of the fitting portion 404a.

[0043] Among them, the fitting portion 404a is constituted by a portion formed by bending the edge portions on both sides of the housing portion of the operation panel [P] in the lid member 40 along the main face 201 of the car side plate 20. The fitting portion 404a is attached to the main face 201 of the car side plate 20 from the outside of the car 1 via an adhesive layer 60 described hereinafter. In addition, the folding-back portion 404b is a portion bent from the fitting portion 404a toward the outside of the car 1, and strengthens the strengthened state of the reinforcing plate 404 for the lid member 40.

[0044] In addition, inside the box shape of the lid member 40, leaf springs 40a are provided in a state of being fixed to the two side faces 402. These leaf springs 40a are used to hold the operation panel [P] inserted into the lid member 40 inside the lid member 40.

[0045] Here, the depth [d] of the box shape (housing portion) of the lid member 40 is designed such that, in a state where the lid member 40 is attached to the car side plate 20, the operation surface of the operation panel [P] housed inside becomes a specified state with respect to the main face 201 of the car side plate 20. In Figure 5 the example shown, for example, it is designed such that the height position of the operation surface of the operation panel [P] is equal to the height position of the main face 201 of the car side plate 20, and the protruding height [t] of the operation surface of the operation panel [P] protruding from the main face 201 of the car side plate 20 is zero.

[0046] In addition, the operation panel [P] held by the lid member 40 is not limited to the case where the operation surface is flat.Figure 6 is a main part cross-sectional view showing an example in which the operation panel is changed in the mounting structure of the operation panel of the first embodiment. As Figure 6 shown, the operation surface of the operation panel [P'] may also be a shape in which the central portion protrudes higher. As an example of this case, the depth [d] of the box shape in the cover member 40 is designed such that, in a state where the cover member 40 is attached to the car side plate 20, the protruding height [t] of the operation surface of the operation panel [P] from the main surface portion 201 of the car side plate 20 becomes a specified value. In addition, hereinafter, in the same manner as the above description, the operation panel [P] shown Figure 5 and Figure 6 the operation panel [P'] shown Figure 5 illustrate the operation panel [P] shown

[0047] [Bracket 50]

[0048] As Figure 4 shown, the bracket 50 is a member fixed to the car side plate 20 and the cover member 40, and is disposed opposite to the two top surface portions 403 in the cover member 40. These brackets 50 have cover member fixing portions 501 disposed opposite to the top surface portions 403 of the cover member 40. In addition, the bracket 50 has a first car side plate fixing portion 502 and a second car side plate fixing portion 503 that extend in a direction perpendicular to the cover member fixing portion 501 from the edge of the cover member fixing portion 501. The first car side plate fixing portion 502 is a portion fixed opposite to the fixing side surface portion 202b of the car side plate 20. In addition, the second car side plate fixing portion 503 is a portion fixed opposite to the fixing portion 204 of the car side plate 20. These first car side plate fixing portions 502 and second car side plate fixing portions 503 are disposed perpendicular to each other. And the bracket 50 has a reinforcing portion 504 that extends in a direction perpendicular to the cover member fixing portion 501 from the edge of the cover member fixing portion 501 at a position sandwiched between the first car side plate fixing portion 502 and the second car side plate fixing portion 503.

[0049] In such a bracket 50, a fixing hole 51h is provided in the cover member fixing portion 501. The fixing hole 51h is provided corresponding to the fixing hole 43h of the top surface portion 403 of the cover member 40.

[0050] In addition, a fixing hole 52h is provided in the first car side plate fixing portion 502. The fixing hole 52h is provided corresponding to the fixing hole 22h provided on the fixing side surface portion 202b of the car side plate 20. In addition, a fixing hole 53h is provided in the second car side plate fixing portion 503. The fixing hole 53h is provided corresponding to the fixing hole 24h provided in the fixing portion 204 of the car side plate 20.

[0051] In addition, the above two brackets 50 have a symmetrical structure facing each other.

[0052] [Adhesive layer 60]

[0053] As Figure 5 shown, the adhesive layer 60 fixes the car side plate 20 and the cover member 40 holding the operation panel [P] by adhesion. The adhesive layer 60 is clamped between the fitting portion 404a of the main surface portion 201 of the car side plate 20 and the reinforcing plate 404 of the cover member 40, and the car side plate 20 and the cover member 40 are fitted and fixed. Such an adhesive layer 60 can be, for example, a double-sided tape or can be constituted by a layer of an adhesive agent.

[0054] <Method of manufacturing an elevator>

[0055] Figure 7 represents the process of the method of manufacturing an elevator according to the first embodiment. Next, based on Figure 7 , as the method of manufacturing an elevator according to the first embodiment, the step of fixing the operation panel [P] to the car 1 will be described.

[0056] First, as Figure 7 shown in the process diagram (1), the cover member 40 and the operation panel [P] are prepared. At this time, as Figure 4 shown, a bracket 50 is fixed to the cover member 40. The cover member 40 and the bracket 50 make the fixing hole 51h provided in the bracket 50 correspond to the fixing hole 43h provided in the cover member 40, and are in a state of being fixed using bolts and nuts (not shown here).

[0057] Next, as Figure 7 shown in the process diagram (2), the operation panel [P] is inserted into the box-shaped interior of the cover member 40. At this time, the operation panel [P] is pushed deep into the cover member 40, and the operation panel [P] is clamped and held between the leaf springs 40a of the cover member 40.

[0058] Next, as Figure 7 shown in the process diagram (3), an adhesive layer 60 is provided at the fitting portion 404a of the cover member 40, and the operation panel [P] held by the cover member 40 is arranged facing the opening 201a of the main surface portion 201 of the car side plate 20. In addition, the adhesive layer 60 can also be provided at a position surrounding the opening 201a of the car side plate 20. In this state, the operation panel [P] held by the cover member 40 is fitted into the opening 201a of the car side plate 20. As a result, the adhesive layer 60 is clamped between the main surface portion 201 of the car side plate 20 and the fitting portion 404a of the cover member 40, and the cover member 40 holding the operation panel [P] and the car side plate 20 are bonded via the adhesive layer 60.

[0059] After that, as Figure 4As shown, the bracket 50 is fixed to the car side plate 20. At this time, the fixing holes 52h provided in the bracket 50 are made to correspond to the fixing holes 22h on the fixing side surface portion 202b provided in the car side plate 20, and the fixing holes 53h provided in the bracket 50 are made to correspond to the fixing holes 24h on the fixing portion 204 provided in the car side plate 20, and fixing is performed using bolts and nuts (not shown here).

[0060] Thus, as previously used Figures 1 - 5 As described, an elevator is obtained in which the operation panel [P] is provided in the car 1.

[0061] <Effect of the First Embodiment>

[0062] According to the first embodiment described above, the cover member 40 of the operation panel [P] has a fitting portion 404a with respect to the car side plate 20, and this fitting portion 404a is integrally formed with the cover member 40 as a reinforcing plate 404. Therefore, it is not necessary to separately provide a reinforcing member, and the number of components and man-hours for installing the operation panel [P] on the car side plate 20 can be reduced. As a result, an improvement in the manufacturing efficiency of the elevator can be achieved.

[0063] In addition, it is a structure in which the cover member 40 in which the operation panel [P] is embedded is fitted to the main surface portion 201 of the car side plate 20. Therefore, as Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, the protruding height [t] of the operation surfaces of the operation panels [P], [P'] with respect to the main surface portion 201 of the car side plate 20 is determined by the depth of the box shape of the cover member 40 and the shapes of the operation panels [P], [P']. Therefore, when fixing the respective components when installing the operation panels [P], [P'], it is not necessary to adjust the protruding height [t], the accuracy of the protruding height [t] can be improved, and the labor for installing the operation panels [P], [P'] can be saved, achieving an improvement in manufacturing efficiency.

[0064] <<Variation of the First Embodiment>>

[0065] Next, variations of the first embodiment and the second embodiment will be described. Figure 8 It is a main part cross-sectional view showing a variation of the embodiment, Figure 9 It is a main part cross-sectional view showing an example in which the operation panel is changed in a variation of the first embodiment. As these Figure 8 and Figure 9 shown, the reinforcing plate 404' of the cover member 40' that houses the operation panels [P], [P'] can, for example, also be only the fitting portion 404a that extends substantially perpendicularly to the side surface portion 402. For example, when the operation panels [P], [P'] are small, sufficient reinforcing strength can be obtained even if the reinforcing plate 404' is only the fitting portion 404a.

[0066] Second Embodiment

[0067] Figure 10 This is a view of the car 1' of the elevator according to the second embodiment as viewed from above. The car 1' of the elevator according to the second embodiment shown in this figure is different from the car 1' of the first embodiment in the installation position of the operation panel [P] for operating the car door 10. That is, the operation panel [P] is arranged on a side surface of the car 1' different from the side surface where the car door 10 is provided. The operation panel [P] is installed on the car side plate 20' in a state of being housed in the cover member 40. The car side plate 20' on which the operation panel [P] is arranged is one of the plurality of car side plates that constitute the side surface of the car 1'. Here, as an example, it is assumed to be a plate-shaped material that constitutes a part of the side surface adjacent to the side surface where the car door 10 is provided. Next, the installation structure of the operation panel [P] with respect to the car side plate 20' will be described.

[0068] <Installation Structure of Operation Panel [P]>

The car side plate 20' has a rectangular main surface 201 arranged toward the inside of the car 1'. In addition, the car side plate 20 has two side surfaces 202 extending from the end edges on both sides of the main surface 201 in a direction substantially perpendicular to the main surface 201. In addition, the car side plate 20 has two top surfaces 203 extending from the upper and lower end edges of the main surface 201 in a direction substantially perpendicular to the main surface 201. Thus, the car side plate 20 is formed into a box shape.

[0072] Such a car side plate 20' has the surface facing the outside of the box shape in the main face 201 facing the inside of the car 1' and has the side faces 202 arranged vertically. An opening 201a is provided at the center of the main face 201, and the operation face of the operation panel [P] is arranged relative to the opening 201a. The above is the same as in the first embodiment.

[0073] In addition, the two side faces 202 of the car side plate 20' serve as the fixing side faces for the bracket 50', and a plurality of fixing holes 22h (two in this case) for fixing the bracket 50' are respectively provided.

[0074] [Cover member 40]

[0075] The cover member 40 has the same structure as the cover member 40 described in the first embodiment, is formed in a box shape, and has a reinforcing plate 404 formed by a fitting portion 404a and a folded-back portion 404b extending therefrom, so the description here is omitted.

In addition, the bracket 50' has two car side plate fixing portions 502' extending from both end edges of the cover member fixing portion 501 in a direction perpendicular to the cover member fixing portion 501.

[0078] These car side plate fixing portions 502' are arranged opposite to the side faces 202 of the car side plate 20' and are arranged parallel to each other. And the bracket 50' has a reinforcing portion 504 extending from the end edge of the cover member fixing portion 501 in a direction perpendicular to the cover member fixing portion 501 at a position sandwiched by the two car side plate fixing portions 502'.

[0079] In such a bracket 50', fixing holes 51h are provided in the cover member fixing portion 501. The fixing holes 51h in the cover member fixing portion 501 are provided corresponding to the fixing holes 43h in the top face 403 of the cover member 40. In addition, fixing holes 52h are provided in each car side plate fixing portion 502'. Each fixing hole 52h is provided corresponding to the fixing hole 22h provided in the side face 202 of the car side plate 20'.

[0080] In addition, the above two brackets 50' can be brackets of the same shape.

[0081] [Adhesive layer 60]

[0082] Figure 12 The adhesive layer 60 shown has the same structure as the adhesive layer 60 described in the first embodiment, and fixes the car side plate 20' and the cover member 40 holding the operation panel [P] by adhesion, so the description here is omitted.

[0083] <Method of manufacturing an elevator>

[0084] The method of manufacturing an elevator according to the second embodiment is a method of manufacturing an elevator having the above-described mounting structure of the operation panel [P]. The step of fixing the operation panel [P] to the car 1' is the same as the step used in the first embodiment. Figure 7 Therefore, the description thereof is omitted here.

[0085] <Effect of the second embodiment>

[0086] In the second embodiment described above, the cover member 40 of the operation panel [P] also has a fitting portion 404a with respect to the car side plate 20, and this fitting portion 404a is formed integrally with the cover member 40 as a reinforcing plate 404. Therefore, it is not necessary to separately provide a reinforcing member, and the number of parts and man-hours for installing the operation panel [P] can be reduced. As a result, an improvement in the manufacturing efficiency of the elevator can be achieved.

[0087] In addition, it is a structure in which the cover member 40 in which the operation panel [P] is embedded is fitted to the main surface 201 of the car side plate 20. Therefore, similarly to the first embodiment, it is possible to improve the accuracy of the protruding height [t] of the operation surface of the operation panel [P] with respect to the main surface 201 of the car side plate 20' (refer to Figure 5 ), and it is possible to save the labor when installing the operation panel [P] and improve the manufacturing efficiency.
