[Background technology]

[0002] An example of the security equipment for passenger cars as described above is the passenger compartment LED tube camera system described in Patent Publication No. 6810106, and the passenger compartment lighting and surveillance system that uses it.

[0003] The passenger compartment lighting and surveillance system described in this patent publication is a passenger compartment lighting and surveillance system that is arranged in two rows, one on each side of the ceiling of the target passenger compartment, from the center of the passenger compartment's width to the ends of the passenger compartment's width, with multiple rows spaced apart front and back, and is composed of a combination of multiple passenger compartment LED tube camera systems (an example of which is given below) attached to straight tube lighting fixtures with opposing pairs of sockets at the front and rear of each passenger compartment in the direction of travel of the target vehicle, and a communication terminal device that is capable of wireless communication in instruction mode with the wireless communication unit of each passenger compartment LED tube camera system, either directly or indirectly via a wireless communication network, and the communication terminal device is capable of wirelessly receiving at least the image data stored in the removable media of each passenger compartment LED tube camera system. The cabin LED tube camera system has a cylindrical wall provided around an imaginary horizontal axis, at least a lower wall area of ​​the cylindrical wall when installed in the ceiling of a target passenger cabin being translucent, a straight glass tube having an outer periphery of the cylindrical wall covered with a shatterproof film, and a unit cover provided on the inner end of the straight glass tube so as to be continuous with the imaginary horizontal axis, the unit cover having a base provided at an outer end opposite to the inner end where the straight glass tube is provided and having a power terminal parallel to the imaginary horizontal axis protruding therefrom, and a base provided at an outer end of the straight glass tube opposite to the inner end where the unit cover is provided and having a dummy terminal parallel to the imaginary horizontal axis protruding therefrom, and a lamp shell that reproduces the outer shape of a straight tube fluorescent lamp is provided, and when installed in the target passenger cabin over substantially the entire length of the straight glass tube. In this case, an LED light-emitting unit is installed facing downward to illuminate the lower side, and the unit cover is equipped with a control unit having a power supply unit, a control circuit, an imaging unit, and a wireless communication unit, and the imaging unit has a wide-angle lens with a horizontal angle of view of 140° to 180° in a direction parallel to the imaginary horizontal axis and a vertical angle of view of 90° to 180° in a direction perpendicular to the imaginary horizontal axis, and is equipped with a camera tilted to one side around the imaginary horizontal axis so that the imaging optical axis has an inclination angle of 40° to 45° with respect to a perpendicular line passing through the imaginary horizontal axis, and the control circuit is equipped with a removable media slot having a reader / writer unit for removable media that can read and write image data, and removable media inserted into the removable media slot.

[0004] The cabin LED tube camera system described in the above patent publication differs from conventional systems in that, due to the unique and distinctive configuration as described above, the cylindrical wall provided around the imaginary horizontal axis of the straight glass tube of the lamp shell is covered with a shatterproof film, and therefore the system can be installed and used in a state where excellent safety is ensured on the ceiling of the target passenger cabin of various vehicles, ships, airplanes, etc., and the imaging unit housed in the unit cover has a wide-angle lens with a horizontal angle of view of 140° to 180° in a direction parallel to the imaginary horizontal axis and a vertical angle of view of 90° to 180° in a direction perpendicular to the imaginary horizontal axis, and is rotated around the imaginary horizontal axis so that the optical axis of the image is inclined at an angle of 40° to 45° with respect to a perpendicular line passing through the imaginary horizontal axis. Since a camera is provided that is tilted to either side of the target passenger compartment, for example, when the camera is installed on the ceiling of the passenger compartment of the target railway vehicle, from the center of the target passenger compartment width dimension on the ceiling inside the target passenger compartment toward either end in the target passenger compartment width dimension direction, and a pair of straight tube lighting fixtures with opposing socket portions are attached to the front and rear of the target vehicle's direction of travel, the direction of the optical axis of the imaging unit can be made to be such that the imaging range in the target passenger compartment width dimension direction can be captured without blind spots, from the floor surface vertically below to the floor surface in the center of the target passenger compartment width dimension and including either seat in the target passenger compartment width dimension direction that is opposite the side where the straight tube lighting fixture is installed, and including the range up to above the luggage rack on the inner wall of the target passenger compartment that is either side in the target passenger compartment width dimension direction. In addition to this cabin LED tube camera system, the control circuit of the control unit has a central processing unit, which is connected to a wireless communication unit having a wireless LAN module and a wireless antenna, and is capable of communicating with at least one of the wireless communication units of the cabin LED tube camera system installed within the communication range, or a communication terminal device equipped with a wireless communication unit, so that it is possible to construct a lighting and monitoring system for travel cabins using the cabin LED tube camera system. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] The passenger cabin lighting and surveillance system using the above-mentioned passenger cabin LED tube camera system certainly makes it possible to reliably monitor and observe incidents occurring in the passenger cabin, but this is merely surveillance, and there is a problem in that in order to actually ensure the safety of passengers, crew members must rush to the scene. Therefore, the present invention aims to provide a security door device that can isolate a suspicious person in one location inside a passenger car based on a report from a passenger who has become aware of the presence of the suspicious person inside the car or based on footage from a surveillance camera such as the one described above. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] The above object can be achieved by a railway vehicle security door device having the following configuration and a railway vehicle (passenger car) in which the same is installed. A part T1 of the interior T0 of a passenger car T is isolated from the other part T1 by a security door 20 consisting of at least one door element 22, 24, forming T2 which isolates people who may harm passengers (hereinafter referred to as suspicious persons, etc.). The door elements 22, 24 can be moved from a storage position TC attached to each of the two decorative panels TW at the ends of the vehicle to an operating position OP by using moving means 50, 52 along tracks 40, 42 provided at at least one location on the floor TF, ceiling or interior air space TS within the TO compartment. The moving means moves in response to a command transmitted from the operating means 30. The door elements 22 and 24 are formed of plate-like members extending in the vertical direction and connected by connecting means so as to be bendable in the horizontal direction, or are formed of flexible plate-like members which can be bent in the horizontal direction. The door members are fixed in the operating position by coupling half fixing means provided at the leading ends of the door members. A control panel 34 is provided in the crew compartment as a command source for the operation of the operating means. When the security door device of the present invention is installed in a passenger car made up of several cars connected together, two security door devices installed in adjacent cars can be used in synchronization to prevent suspicious persons from moving forward or backward. When the security door device of the present invention is installed in a passenger car equipped with a through door, the through door is linked to the security door device and configured to be locked, thereby preventing suspicious persons from moving forward or backward. [Effects of the Invention]

[0007] The security door device of the present invention can isolate a part of the passenger compartment where a suspicious person is present from other spaces by using a door member whose operation is remotely controlled, and confine the suspicious person, thereby preventing passengers from being killed or injured.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0009] Hereinafter, a burglar-proof door device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0010] A burglar prevention door device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 1 and subsequent figures. This security door device 10 is installed in the interior T0 (see FIG. 2) of a railway vehicle (hereinafter referred to as a passenger car) T that handles passengers, and is intended to isolate a part T1 of the interior T0 from another part T2 to prevent theft inside the vehicle. Hereinafter, the space indicated by T1 will be referred to as the isolated space, and the space indicated by T2 will be referred to as the safety space. The burglar prevention door device 10 includes a burglar prevention door 20, which is made up of, for example, two door members 22 and 24.

[0011] These two door elements 22, 24 are normally positioned in a non-operating position NP, which is a storage position where a storage section TS is formed attached to the ceiling (not shown), floor TF, or decorative panel TW of the vehicle, as shown in Figure 3. Considering the behavior of many suspicious individuals and the ease of installation of this security door device, it is preferable that this non-operating position NP be positioned at least at one of both ends of the vehicle (a location continuous with the through passage or connecting section). In this embodiment, the storage space in the storage position is formed by a partition plate 26 that is positioned at a predetermined horizontal distance from the side wall TW and extends upward from the floor TF. These two door elements 22, 24 are each made up of multiple plate-like elements 22b, 24b extending in the vertical direction and connected by connecting means 22a, 24a such as hinges so that they can be bent horizontally. The multiple plate-like elements 22b, 24b are made of materials that are not easily destroyed, such as steel plates, and the same goes for the connecting means 22a, 24a.

[0012] The two door elements 22, 24 are movable along tracks 40, 42 provided at least in one location on the floor TF, ceiling or interior space TS of the room T0, thereby allowing them to be extended from the storage section TS in Figure 3 and positioned in the operating position OP shown in Figures 1 and 2. A locking means R is provided on the leading edges 22c, 24c of the two door members 22, 24 so as to automatically lock when they abut in the operating position OP. This locking means R is made up of locking means halves R1, R2 that fit together and lock when the leading edges 22c, 24c abut in the operating position (see FIG. 4).

[0013] 1, movement means 50, 52 are provided on the upper edges of the leading edges 22c, 24c of the two door elements 22, 24. The movement means 50, 52 move along the track 42, thereby moving the two door elements 22, 24 between the operating position and the inoperating position. Specifically, the moving means 50 (moving means 52 has the same structure as moving means 50, so its description will be omitted) has a box-shaped casing 54 arranged around the track 42, inside which are provided rollers 56 that roll on the track 42, and a rotary drive device 58 consisting of a motor and a gear train that rotates the rollers 56, as shown in Figures 5 and 6. The door element 22 is connected at its upper edge tip to the lower part of the casing 54, and this door element 22 is adapted to move between the operating position and the inoperable position as the casing 54 is moved by the rollers 56. The direction of movement of the door member 22 can be controlled by changing the direction of rotation of the motor.

[0014] The security door device 10 includes a command system 100 for electrically operating (moving) the door elements 22, 24. The command system 100 includes a communicator 102, such as an SOS button, provided in a space that serves as a safety space T2 within the interior T0; notification means (not shown) provided in the passenger compartment that, when a notification is received from the communicator 102, notifies the crew in the passenger compartment by emitting sound or light; an actuation / control means 104 for controlling the actuation of the movement means 50, 52; and a control panel 106 provided in the passenger compartment that actually controls the actuation / control means 104. The notification means may be provided on the control panel 106. The control panel 106 is operated by the crew, for example, by viewing images from a camera or the like provided in the passenger compartment.

[0015] In the case of a passenger train consisting of multiple cars connected together, multiple security door devices 10 installed in adjacent cars can be used in synchronization. Two security door devices 10 are synchronized to form an enclosed space that prevents people who may harm passengers (hereinafter referred to as suspicious persons, etc.) from moving forward or backward. In the case of passenger cars equipped with a gangway door, the gangway door may be provided with a remotely operable locking means, and the operation of this locking means may be linked (synchronized) with the operation of the security door device 10. In other words, when the security door device 10 operates, the gangway door is locked by the locking means at the same time, thereby hindering and inhibiting the actions of suspicious persons, etc.

[0016] According to the second embodiment of the present invention, the security door 20 is composed of four door members 22F, 22R, 24F, and 24R, as shown in FIGS. 7 to 9. These four door members 22F, 22R, 24F, and 24R are each composed of a plurality of vertically extending plate-like members 22b and 24b connected by hinge-like connecting means 22a and 24a so as to be horizontally bendable. As shown in FIG. 10, a power-side joint H1 is attached to the other end of each of 22F and 24F, which is provided with the locking means R. Furthermore, an accompanying-side joint H2 is attached to the end of each of 22R and 24R. When 22F is extended toward the opening plate (OP), H1 and H2 come into contact with each other, and 22R moves toward the opening plate along with 22F. The remaining configuration is the same as in the first embodiment.

[0017] According to the third embodiment of the present invention, which is a modification of the first embodiment, the door elements 22 and 24 can each be formed using a single plate-like member that is flexible but not easily broken, such as a reinforced rubber member or a fiber-reinforced flexible plastic plate, as shown in Figures 11 to 13. The other configurations are the same as those of the first embodiment, so further description will be omitted.

[0018] According to the fourth embodiment of the present invention, which is a modification of the second embodiment, each of the four door members 22F, 22R, 24F, and 24R can be formed using a single plate-like member that is flexible but not easily broken, such as a reinforced rubber member or a fiber-reinforced flexible plastic plate, as shown in Figures 14 to 16. The other configurations are the same as those of the second embodiment, so further explanation will be omitted. [Explanation of symbols]
