DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0015] In each drawing, the dimensions of the components may be enlarged or reduced relative to the actual dimensions, for example, to facilitate understanding, and the dimensional ratios between the drawings may not be consistent. Note that in each drawing, for example, to facilitate understanding, some of the components may be omitted.
[0016] Terms including ordinal numbers such as "first" and "second" are used to describe various components, but these terms are used only to distinguish one component from another, and the components are not particularly limited by these terms. The number of components including ordinal numbers is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, one. Furthermore, the ordinal numbers used in the following specification and drawings may differ from the ordinal numbers described in the claims.
[0017] An embodiment of an elevator and an elevator electrical panel will be described below with reference to Figures 1 to 12. Note that the following embodiment is provided as an example to aid in understanding the configuration of the elevator and elevator electrical panel, and does not limit the configuration of the elevator and elevator electrical panel.
[0018] 1 and 2, an elevator 1 may include, for example, a car 2 for people (passengers) to ride in, a car drive unit 3 for running the car 2, a car rail 1a for guiding the car 2, and a processing unit 1b for controlling each part of the elevator 1. The processing unit 1b includes an elevator electrical panel (hereinafter also simply referred to as "electrical panel") 4 arranged inside the hoistway X1.
[0019] There is no particular limitation on the drive system of the car drive unit 3. For example, as in this embodiment, the elevator 1 may be configured to include a counterweight 1c, a car rope 1d connected to the car 2 and the counterweight 1c, and a counterweight rail 1e that guides the counterweight 1c, and the car drive unit 3 may be configured to include a sheave 3a around which the car rope 1d is wound, and a drive source 3b (for example, a motor) that rotates the sheave 3a.
[0020] That is, the car drive unit 3 may be a hoist and the elevator 1 may be a rope-type drive system. However, the present invention is not limited to such a configuration, and may be configured, for example, such that the car drive unit 3 is a hydraulic device and the elevator 1 is a hydraulic drive system, or such that the car drive unit 3 is a linear motor and the elevator 1 is a linear motor-type drive system.
[0021] In addition, in this embodiment, both ends of the car rope 1d are fixed to the upper or lower part of the hoistway X1, and the car rope 1d is wound around the sheave 2a of the car 2 and the sheave 1f of the counterweight 1c, respectively, thereby connecting the car rope 1d to the car 2 and the counterweight 1c, respectively, but the present invention is not limited to this configuration. For example, a configuration may also be adopted in which a first end of the car rope 1d is connected to the car 2, and a second end of the car rope 1d is connected to the counterweight 1c.
[0022] Furthermore, the elevator 1 according to this embodiment is configured such that the hoisting machine, which is the car drive unit 3, is disposed inside the hoistway X1, but is not limited to such a configuration. For example, a machine room may be provided above the hoistway X1, and the elevator 1 may be configured such that the hoisting machine is disposed inside the machine room.
[0023] In each figure, the first direction D1 is the first horizontal direction D1, the second direction D2 is the second horizontal direction D2 which is a horizontal direction perpendicular to the first horizontal direction D1, and the third direction D3 is the up-down direction D3 which is perpendicular to each of the horizontal directions D1 and D2, and is the lifting direction in which the car 2 and the counterweight 1c rise and fall.
[0024] As shown in Figures 2 to 4, the elevator electrical panel 4 comprises a panel main body 10 fixed inside the hoistway X1, and cover bodies 20, 30 removably attached to the panel main body 10. The number of cover bodies 20, 30 is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, two as in this embodiment, or may be, for example, one or three or more. Furthermore, the cover bodies 20, 30 can each be attached to and detached from the panel main body 10 individually.
[0025] The electrical panel 4 may, for example, include electrical components (not shown) inside the panel body 10. Although not particularly limited, the electrical components may, for example, be control components (e.g., inverters, CPUs, etc.) that control the running of the car 2, or may also, for example, be accessory components of the electrical panel 4 (e.g., fans for supplying and exhausting air to and from the panel body 10, lighting that illuminates the inside of the panel body 10, etc.).
[0026] The panel body 10 may be fixed to the hoistway X1 by being connected to the side wall X2 of the hoistway X1 or the rails 1a, 1e by, for example, a bracket (not shown). Also, the panel body 10 may be disposed between the car 2 and the side wall X2 of the hoistway X1 in the first horizontal direction D1 when viewed in the up-down direction D3, as in this embodiment. As a result, when the car 2 is located at a predetermined position (for example, a landing on the top floor), the panel body 10 faces each other in the first horizontal direction D1.
[0027] 3 and 4, the board body 10 has an opening 11a that opens to the inside in the first horizontal direction D1. For example, as in this embodiment, the board body 10 may have a housing 11 having a front portion 11b, side portions 11c and 11d, a rear portion 11e, a top portion 11f, and a bottom portion 11g, and the front portion 11b of the housing 11 may have an opening 11a that opens to the inside of the housing 11 in the first horizontal direction D1.
[0028] Although not particularly limited, the ratio of the dimension W2 of the opening 11a in the vertical direction D3 to the dimension W1 of the housing 11 (specifically, the front surface 11b) in the vertical direction D3 may be, for example, 50% or more, or may be, for example, 70% or more. Furthermore, although not particularly limited, the ratio of the dimension W4 of the opening 11a in the second horizontal direction D2 to the dimension W3 of the housing 11 (specifically, the front surface 11b) in the second horizontal direction D2 may be, for example, 50% or more, or may be, for example, 70% or more.
[0029] Furthermore, the cover bodies 20, 30 may include, for example, as in the present embodiment, cover portions 21, 31 that cover the opening 11a and protruding portions 22, 32 that protrude from ends in the width direction D4 of the cover portions 21, 31. Each of the cover portions 21, 31 and the protruding portions 22, 32 may be formed in a plate shape, for example, as in the present embodiment.
[0030] The electrical panel 4 is provided with a closing retaining means 5 (also referred to as "first closing retaining means 5a") that retains the first cover body 20 on the panel body 10 in the closed position (the position shown in FIG. 4) by removably attaching the first cover body 20 to the panel body 10. The electrical panel 4 may also be provided with a closing retaining means 5 (also referred to as "second closing retaining means 5b") that retains the second cover body 30 on the panel body 10 in the closed position (the position shown in FIG. 4) by removably attaching the second cover body 30 to the panel body 10, as in this embodiment, for example.
[0031] When the cover bodies 20 and 30 are positioned in the closed position, they cover the opening 11a as viewed in the first lateral direction D1. This makes it possible, for example, to protect the electrical components inside the panel body 10 and to prevent contact with the electrical components inside the panel body 10. Furthermore, for example, the cover bodies 20 and 30 can prevent dust and water droplets from entering the interior of the electrical panel 4 through the opening 11a.
[0032] For example, as in this embodiment, the dimension W5 of the first cover body 20 in the up-down direction D3 may be larger than the dimension W6 of the second cover body 30 in the up-down direction D3. Although not particularly limited, the ratio of the dimension W5 of the first cover body 20 in the up-down direction D3 to the dimension W6 of the second cover body 30 in the up-down direction D3 may be, for example, 200% or more, or may be, for example, 250% or more.
[0033] For example, as in the present embodiment, the first cover body 20 in the closed position may cover a lower portion of the opening 11 a, and the second cover body 30 in the closed position may cover an upper portion of the opening 11 a. Also, for example, as in the present embodiment, when the cover bodies 20, 30 are in the closed position, the upper portion of the first cover body 20 may overlap the lower portion of the second cover body 30 when viewed in the first lateral direction D1.
[0034] 4 to 6, the closing means 5 may include a first hooking mechanism 5c. For example, the first cover body 20 may include a first hole 21a, and the panel body 10 may include a first hooking portion 12a that is inserted into and hooks onto the first hole 21a, and the first hooking portion 12a and the first hole 21a may form the first hooking mechanism 5c of the first closing means 5a.
[0035] As a result, the first hook portion 12a is inserted into the first hole portion 21a, and the first hole portion 21a is hooked onto the first hook portion 12a, thereby holding the first cover body 20 in the closed position on the panel main body 10. Although not shown, the first hook mechanism 5c of the second closing holding means 5b may have the same configuration as the first hook mechanism 5c of the first closing holding means 5a, for example. Also, in Figure 6, the housing 11 and the first cover body 20 are shown in vertical cross section.
[0036] The number of first hooking mechanisms 5c is not particularly limited. For example, as in this embodiment, the first close-holding means 5a may include a plurality of first hooking mechanisms 5c, and the second close-holding means 5b may include a plurality of first hooking mechanisms 5c. This allows the close-holding means 5 to stably hold the cover bodies 20, 30 on the panel body 10. Although not particularly limited, for example, in this embodiment, the first close-holding means 5a includes four first hooking mechanisms 5c, and the second close-holding means 5b includes four first hooking mechanisms 5c.
[0037] Furthermore, in the closure holding means 5, for example, as in the present embodiment, one first hole 21a may be provided for one first hook 12a. Specifically, for example, the first closure holding means 5a may be configured to have the same number (four in the present embodiment) of first hooks 12a and first holes 21a, and the second closure holding means 5b may be configured to have the same number (four in the present embodiment) of first hooks and first holes.
[0038] This prevents the closed holding means 5 from changing the closed positions of the cover bodies 20, 30. Therefore, by the closed holding means 5 holding the cover bodies 20, 30 in the closed position on the panel body 10, the opening 11a of the panel body 10 can be reliably covered by the cover bodies 20, 30.
[0039] 5 and 6, the panel body 10 may include, for example, a first male threaded body 12 having a first hook portion 12a, and a first female threaded body 13 that screws into the first male threaded body 12 to fix the first male threaded body 12 to the front surface 11b of the housing 11. The first hook portion 12a may protrude from the front surface 11b of the housing 11 in the first lateral direction D1, as in this embodiment.
[0040] Furthermore, the first male threaded body 12 may be provided with a first retaining portion 12b at the end of the first hook portion 12a, which prevents the first hook portion 12a from coming out of the first hole portion 21a, as in the present embodiment. The first female threaded body 13 may be fixed to the front surface portion 11b of the housing 11, as in the present embodiment. Furthermore, for example, the first retaining portion 12b and the front surface portion 11b may clamp and fix the cover portion 21 of the first cover body 20 in the first lateral direction D1.
[0041] For example, as in the present embodiment, the first hole portion 21a may include a first insertion hole 21b through which the first removal preventing portion 12b passes, and a first hooking hole 21c extending upward from the first insertion hole 21b and hooked onto the first hooking portion 12a. For example, as in the present embodiment, the first insertion hole 21b may be formed with a size that allows the first removal preventing portion 12b to pass through, and the first hooking hole 21c may be formed with a size that does not allow the first removal preventing portion 12b to pass through.
[0042] Incidentally, although not particularly limited, the ratio of the dimension W5 (see FIG. 3) in the up-down direction D3 of the first cover body 20 to the dimensions W7, W8 (see FIG. 2) in the horizontal directions D1, D2 of the cab of the car 2 may be, for example, 50% or more, or may be, for example, 75% or more, or may be, for example, 100% or more. As a result, since the length of the first cover body 20 is long, it may be difficult, for example, to place the first cover body 20 on the cab.
[0043] For example, if the dimension W5 of the first cover body 20 in the up-down direction D3 is longer than at least one of the dimension W7 in the first horizontal direction D1 and the dimension W8 in the second horizontal direction D2 of the cab of the car 2, it is difficult to lay the first cover body 20 on its side and place it on the cab. Also, for example, if the dimension W5 of the first cover body 20 in the up-down direction D3 is longer than each of the dimension W7 in the first horizontal direction D1 and the dimension W8 in the second horizontal direction D2 of the cab of the car 2, it is extremely difficult to lay the first cover body 20 on its side and place it on the cab.
[0044] 7, the electrical panel 4 is provided with an open holding means 6 (also referred to as "first open holding means 6a") that holds the first cover body 20 on the panel body 10 in the open position (the position shown in FIG. 7) by removably attaching the first cover body 20 to the panel body 10. Although not shown, the electrical panel 4 may also be provided with an open holding means (also referred to as "second open holding means") that holds the second cover body 30 on the panel body 10 in the open position by removably attaching the second cover body 30 to the panel body 10, for example.
[0045] When the first cover body 20 is in the open position, it is spaced apart from the opening 11a when viewed in the first lateral direction D1. This allows the first cover body 20 to be held by the panel body 10 in order to keep the opening 11a of the panel body 10 open. This makes it possible to easily perform maintenance work on electrical components inside the panel body 10, for example.
[0046] Furthermore, when the first cover body 20 is in the open position, it overlaps with the board body 10 as viewed in the second lateral direction D2. This allows the first cover body 20 to be positioned to the side of the board body 10, for example, in cases where there is often no space above or below the board body 10.
[0047] Furthermore, when the first cover body 20 is in the open position, the lower end of the first cover body 20 is positioned higher than the lower end of the panel body 10. This prevents the lower end of the first cover body 20 from being hit from below when the first cover body 20 is held by the panel body 10 in the open position.
[0048] Moreover, when the first cover body 20 is in the open position, the upper end of the first cover body 20 is positioned lower than the upper end of the panel body 10. This makes it possible to prevent the upper end of the first cover body 20 from being hit from above when the first cover body 20 is held by the panel body 10 in the open position.
[0049] The dimension W9 of the first cover body 20 in the width direction D4 is larger than the dimension W10 of the panel body 10 in the first horizontal direction D1. As a result, when the first cover body 20 is in the open position, the first cover body 20 protrudes from the panel body 10 in the first horizontal direction D1.
[0050] 7 to 10, the open holding means 6 is provided with a second hooking mechanism 6c. Specifically, the first cover body 20 is provided with a second hole portion 21d, and the panel body 10 is provided with a second hooking portion 14a that is inserted into and hooks onto the second hole portion 21d, and the second hooking portion 14a and the second hole portion 21d constitute the second hooking mechanism 6c of the first open holding means 6a.
[0051] As a result, second hook portion 14a is inserted into second hole portion 21d, and second hole portion 21d is hooked onto second hook portion 14a, thereby holding first cover body 20 in the open position on panel main body 10. Although not shown, second open holding means may include, for example, second hook mechanism 6c having the same configuration as second hook mechanism 6c of first open holding means 6a. Also, in Figure 9, housing 11 and first cover body 20 are shown in vertical cross section.
[0052] The number of second hooking mechanisms 6c is not particularly limited. For example, as in this embodiment, the first open holding means 6a may be provided with a plurality of second hooking mechanisms 6c. This allows the first open holding means 6a to stably hold the first cover body 20 to the panel main body 10. Although not particularly limited, for example, in this embodiment, the first open holding means 6a is provided with two second hooking mechanisms 6c.
[0053] 8 to 10, the panel body 10 may include, for example, a second male threaded body 14 having a second hook portion 14a, and second female threaded bodies 15, 15 that screw together with the second male threaded body 14 to fix the second male threaded body 14 to the first side surface portion 11c of the housing 11. The second hook portion 14a may protrude from the first side surface portion 11c of the housing 11 in the second lateral direction D2, as in this embodiment.
[0054] The second hook portion 14a may be provided on the panel body 10 so as to protrude, for example, not only from the first side surface portion 11c but also from the second side surface portion 11d. The second hook portion 14a may be provided on the panel body 10 so as to protrude, for example, only from the second side surface portion 11d instead of the first side surface portion 11c.
[0055] Furthermore, the second male threaded body 14 may be provided with a second retaining portion 14b at the end of the second hook portion 14a, which prevents the second hook portion 14a from coming out of the second hole portion 21d, as in the present embodiment. Note that, for example, as in the present embodiment, a pair of second female threaded bodies 15, 15 may be provided, and the second male threaded body 14 may be fixed to the first side surface portion 11c of the housing 11 by sandwiching the first side surface portion 11c of the housing 11 in the second lateral direction D2.
[0056] For example, as in the present embodiment, the second hole portion 21d may include a second insertion hole 21e through which the second removal prevention portion 14b passes, and a second hooking hole 21f extending upward from the second insertion hole 21e and hooked onto the second hooking portion 14a. For example, as in the present embodiment, the second insertion hole 21e may be formed with a size that allows the second removal prevention portion 14b to pass through, and the second hooking hole 21f may be formed with a size that does not allow the second removal prevention portion 14b to pass through.
[0057] 10, the first opening and holding means 6a (see FIG. 11) may be provided with a plurality of second holes 21d (three in this embodiment) for one second hook portion 14a. Specifically, the first opening and holding means 6a may be configured to have a greater number of second holes 21d (five in this embodiment) than the number of second hook portions 14a (two in this embodiment).
[0058] For example, as in this embodiment, the plurality of second hook portions 14a may be arranged in the first horizontal direction D1 on the panel body 10, and the plurality of second hole portions 21d may be arranged in the width direction D4 on the first cover body 20. Although not particularly limited, for example, as in this embodiment, the spacing W11 between the second hole portions 21d, 21d may be 50% of the spacing W12 between the second hook portions 14a, 14a.
[0059] In this way, since a plurality of second holes 21d are provided for one second hook portion 14a, the open position of first cover body 20 can be changed by changing the second hole portion 21d that is hooked by second hook portion 14a, as shown in Fig. 11. In this way, first open holding means 6a can change the open position of first cover body 20.
[0060] Therefore, the first open holding means 6a holds the first cover body 20 on the panel body 10, so that the first cover body 20 can be placed in an appropriate open position. For example, in this embodiment, the open position of the first cover body 20 relative to the panel body 10 can be changed in the first lateral direction D1. Specifically, the open position of the first cover body 20 can be selected from a first open position (see FIG. 11(a)), a second open position (see FIG. 11(b)), and a third open position (see FIG. 11(c)).
[0061] Then, for example, by placing the first cover body 20 in an appropriate open position, the first cover body 20 is spaced apart from the car 2 when viewed in the up-down direction D3 when positioned in the open position, as shown in Fig. 12. This makes it possible to prevent the first cover body 20 from hitting the car 2 when the car 2 moves up and down.
[0062] As described above, the elevator electrical panel 4 is configured as follows: a panel body 10 having an opening 11a that opens to the inside in a first horizontal direction D1 and fixed inside the elevator shaft X1; An elevator electrical panel (4) including a cover body (20, 30) that covers the opening (11a), a closing and holding means (5) for holding the cover bodies (20, 30) on the panel body (10) in a closed position covering the opening (11a) as viewed in the first lateral direction (D1) by removably attaching the cover bodies (20, 30) to the panel body (10); and an open holding means 6 for holding the cover body 20 on the panel body 10 in an open position away from the opening 11a as viewed in the first horizontal direction D1 by removably attaching the cover body (in this embodiment, the first cover body 20) to the panel body 10. This configuration is preferred.
[0063] According to this configuration, the cover body 20 is removably attached to the board body 10 by the open holding means 6, so that the cover body 20 is held on the board body 10 in an open position away from the opening 11a when viewed in the first lateral direction D1. This makes it possible to hold the cover body 20 on the board body 10 in order to maintain the opening 11a of the board body 10 in an open state.
[0064] In addition, in the elevator electrical panel 4, as in this embodiment, The cover body (in this embodiment, the first cover body) 20 positioned in the open position overlaps with the panel body 10 when viewed in a second horizontal direction D2 perpendicular to the first horizontal direction D1.

[0065] According to this configuration, the open holding means 6 holds the cover body 20 in the open position on the board body 10, so that the cover body 20 overlaps with the board body 10 when viewed in the second lateral direction D2. This allows the cover body 20 to be positioned to the side of the board body 10.
[0066] In addition, in the elevator electrical panel 4, as in this embodiment, A dimension W9 of the cover body (in this embodiment, the first cover body) 20 in the width direction D4 is larger than a dimension W10 of the board body 10 in the first lateral direction D1, The cover body 20 positioned in the open position is separated from the car 2 when viewed in the up-down direction D3. This configuration is preferred.
[0067] According to this configuration, the open holding means 6 holds the cover body 20 in the open position on the panel body 10, so that the cover body 20 moves away from the car 2 when viewed in the up-down direction D3. This makes it possible to prevent the cover body 20 in the open position from hitting the car 2 when the car 2 moves up and down.
[0068] In addition, in the elevator electrical panel 4, as in this embodiment, The upper end of the cover body (in this embodiment, the first cover body) 20 located in the open position is positioned lower than the upper end of the panel body 10, and the lower end of the cover body 20 located in the open position is positioned higher than the lower end of the panel body 10. This configuration is preferred.
[0069] According to this configuration, the lower end of the cover body 20 in the open position is positioned higher than the lower end of the board body 10. This makes it possible to prevent the lower end of the cover body 20 from being hit from below when the cover body 20 is held by the board body 10 in the open position.
[0070] Moreover, the upper end of the cover body 20 in the open position is positioned lower than the upper end of the board body 10. This makes it possible to prevent the upper end of the cover body 20 from being hit from above when the cover body 20 is held by the board body 10 in the open position.
[0071] In addition, in the elevator electrical panel 4, as in this embodiment, The closed holding means 5 cannot change the closed position of the cover bodies 20, 30, The open holding means 6 is capable of changing the open position of the cover body (first cover body in this embodiment) 20. This configuration is preferred.
[0072] According to this configuration, the closed holding means 5 cannot change the closed position of the cover bodies 20, 30, and therefore the closed holding means 5 holds the cover bodies 20, 30 in the closed position on the board body 10, thereby ensuring that the opening 11a is covered by the cover bodies 20, 30. Furthermore, since the open holding means 6 can change the open position of the cover body 20, the open holding means 6 holds the cover body 20 in the open position on the board body 10, and therefore the cover body 20 can be positioned in an appropriate open position.
[0073] In addition, in the elevator electrical panel 4, as in this embodiment, The open holding means 6 has a hole portion (in this embodiment, a second hole portion) 21d in one of the panel body 10 and the cover body 20 (in this embodiment, the first cover body), and has a hook portion (in this embodiment, a second hook portion) 14a in the other of the panel body 10 and the cover body 20 (in this embodiment, the panel body 10) that is inserted into the hole portion 21d and hooks onto the hole portion 21d; A plurality of the holes 21d are provided for each of the hook portions 14a. This configuration is preferred.
[0074] According to this configuration, the hook portion 14a is inserted into the hole portion 21d, and the hole portion 21d is hooked onto the hook portion 14a, thereby holding the cover body 20 in the open position on the panel main body 10. As a result, the hook portion 14a and the hole portion 21d constitute the open holding means 6. Furthermore, since a plurality of holes 21d are provided for one hook portion 14a, the open position of the cover body 20 can be changed by changing the hole portion 21d hooked onto by the hook portion 14a.
[0075] In addition, the elevator 1, as in this embodiment, A car 2 that moves up and down inside the elevator shaft X1; The elevator electrical panel 4 is provided. This configuration is preferred.
[0076] According to this configuration, the cover body 20 can be held by the panel body 10 in order to maintain the opening 11a of the panel body 10 in an open state.
[0077] The elevator 1 and the elevator electrical panel 4 are not limited to the configurations of the above-described embodiments, nor are they limited to the above-described effects. Furthermore, the elevator 1 and the elevator electrical panel 4 can, of course, be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

[0084] (F) Furthermore, in the elevator electrical panel 4 according to the above embodiment, the closed holding means 5 is configured to be unable to change the closed positions of the cover bodies 20, 30. However, the elevator electrical panel 4 is not limited to such a configuration. For example, the closed holding means 5 may be configured to be able to change the closed positions of the cover bodies 20, 30.
[0085] (G) Furthermore, in the elevator electrical panel 4 according to the above embodiment, the open holding means 6 is configured to be able to change the open position of the first cover body 20. However, the elevator electrical panel 4 is not limited to such a configuration. For example, the open holding means 6 may be configured to be unable to change the open position of the first cover body 20. In such a configuration, for example, one second hole portion 21d of the first cover body 20 may be provided for each second hook portion 14a of the panel main body 10.
[0086] (H) Furthermore, in the elevator electrical panel 4 according to the above embodiment, the open holding means 6 is configured such that the first cover body 20 has a second hole portion 21d, and the panel main body 10 has a second hook portion 14a that is inserted into the second hole portion 21d and hooks onto the second hole portion 21d. However, the elevator electrical panel 4 is not limited to this configuration. For example, the open holding means 6 may be configured such that the panel main body 10 has a second hole portion, and the first cover body 20 has a second hook portion that is inserted into the second hole portion and hooks onto the second hole portion.
[0087] (I) Furthermore, in the elevator electrical panel 4 according to the above embodiment, the second hook portion 14a is configured to extend linearly in the second horizontal direction D2. However, the elevator electrical panel 4 is not limited to this configuration. For example, the second hook portion 14a may be configured to be formed in a hook shape. While not particularly limited to this configuration, for example, the second hook portion 14a may be a hook member that is connected to the housing 11 by a chain or wire.
[0088] (J) Furthermore, in the elevator electrical panel 4 according to the above embodiment, the open holding means 6 is configured to have the second hole portion 21d in one of the panel main body 10 and the first cover body 20, and the other of them has the second hook portion 14a that hooks onto the second hole portion 21d. However, the elevator electrical panel 4 is not limited to this configuration. For example, the open holding means 6 may be configured to have a support portion in the panel main body 10 that supports the first cover body 20 from below, and the first cover body 20 may be held to the panel main body 10 by being placed on the support portion.
[0089] (K) Furthermore, in the elevator electrical panel 4 according to the above embodiment, the second hook portions 14a are arranged in the first horizontal direction D1 on the panel main body 10, the second hole portions 21d are arranged in the width direction D4 on the first cover body 20, and the open position of the first cover body 20 can be changed in the first horizontal direction D1 relative to the panel main body 10. However, the elevator electrical panel 4 is not limited to this configuration.
[0090] For example, the second hook portion 14a may be arranged in the vertical direction D3 on the panel body 10, the second hole portion 21d may be arranged in the vertical direction D3 on the first cover body 20, and the open position of the first cover body 20 may be changed to the vertical direction D3 relative to the panel body 10.
[0091] (L) Furthermore, in the elevator electrical panel 4 according to the above embodiment, a plurality of second holes 21d are provided for each second hook portion 14a, so that the open holding means 6 can change the open position of the first cover body 20. However, the elevator electrical panel 4 is not limited to this configuration.
[0092] For example, the open holding means 6 may be configured to be able to change the open position of the first cover body 20 by changing the position of the second hook portion 14a relative to the panel body 10 (or the first cover body 20). As an example of such a configuration, although not particularly limited, the open holding means 6 may be configured as shown in Fig. 13 or 14.
[0093] (L-1) For example, as shown in Fig. 13, the housing 11 may be configured to have fixing holes 11h into which the second male threaded bodies 14 are inserted to fix the second male threaded bodies 14, and the number of fixing holes 11h may be greater than the number of second male threaded bodies 14 (second hook portions 14a). As a result, by changing the fixing holes 11h into which the second male threaded bodies 14 are inserted, the positions of the second hook portions 14a on the panel main body 10 can be changed.
[0094] Therefore, the open holding means 6 can change the open position of the first cover body 20. In this configuration, although not shown in Fig. 13, the first cover body 20 may have, for example, one second hole portion 21d for one second hook portion 14a, or may have, for example, a plurality of second hole portions 21d.
[0095] 13, there are six fixing holes 11h and two second male screw bodies 14 (second hook portions 14a), but the numbers of fixing holes 11h and second male screw bodies 14 (second hook portions 14a) are not particularly limited. Also, in FIG. 13, the multiple fixing holes 11h are arranged in the vertical direction D3 on the board body 10, but this is not limited to such a configuration, and for example, the multiple fixing holes 11h may be arranged in the first horizontal direction D1 on the board body 10.
[0096] (L-2) For example, as shown in Fig. 14, the housing 11 may have a fixing hole 11h into which the second male threaded body 14 is inserted to fix the second male threaded body 14, and the fixing hole 11h may extend in the vertical direction D3. This makes it possible to change the position of the second hook portion 14a on the panel main body 10 by changing the fixing position of the second male threaded body 14 relative to the fixing hole 11h.
[0097] Therefore, the open holding means 6 can change the open position of the first cover body 20. In this configuration, although not shown in Fig. 14, the second hole portion 21d of the first cover body 20 may be provided, for example, one for each second hook portion 14a, or may be provided, for example, multiple. In Fig. 14, the fixing hole 11h extends in the vertical direction D3 on the panel body 10, but this is not limited to such a configuration, and for example, the fixing hole 11h may extend in the first horizontal direction D1 on the panel body 10.
[0098] In this way, in the elevator electrical panel 4, as shown in FIGS. 13 and 14, The open holding means 6 has a hole (second hole) 21d in one of the panel body 10 and the cover body 20 (first cover body in Figures 13 and 14), and has a hook (second hook 14a) in the other of the panel body 10 and the cover body 20 (panel body 10 in Figures 13 and 14) that is inserted into the hole 21d and hooks onto the hole 21d, The position of the hook portion 14a on the other side 10 is changeable. This configuration is preferable.
[0099] According to this configuration, the hook portion 14a is inserted into the hole portion 21d, and the hole portion 21d is hooked onto the hook portion 14a, thereby holding the cover body 20 in the open position on the panel body 10. As a result, the hook portion 14a and the hole portion 21d constitute the open holding means 6. Furthermore, since the position of the hook portion 14a is changeable, the open position of the cover body 20 can be changed by changing the position of the hook portion 14a.
[0100] (M) Also, in the elevator electrical panel 4, for example, as shown in Figure 15, the open retention means 6 may be configured to have a stop portion 16a that is fixed to the second hook portion 14a and that stops the first cover body 20 in the second horizontal direction D2 by abutting it, and the distance that each stop portion 16a is away from the housing 11 (specifically, the first side surface portion 11c) in the second horizontal direction D2 may be different.
[0101] As a result, the first cover body 20 in the open position is inclined with respect to the first horizontal direction D1 when viewed in the up-down direction D3 by being abutted against the abutment portion 16a and positioned therein, and therefore the amount by which the first cover body 20 in the open position protrudes from the panel main body 10 in the first horizontal direction D1 can be reduced.
[0102] 15, the abutment stop portion 16a is provided on the third female threaded body 16 that screws into the second male threaded body 14. This makes it possible to change the position of the abutment stop portion 16a relative to the second hook portion 14a, and therefore the distance that the abutment stop portion 16a is away from the housing 11 in the second lateral direction D2.
[0103] (N) Furthermore, in the elevator electrical panel 4, for example, the second open holding means (open holding means for holding the second cover body 30 on the panel main body 10 in the open position) may be configured to include a third hole portion provided in the second cover body 30 and a third hook portion provided in the panel main body 10, which is inserted into the third hole portion and hooks onto the third hole portion. The third hook portion of the second open holding means may be configured to be the same component as the second hook portion 14a of the first open holding means 6a (open holding means 6a for holding the first cover body 20 on the panel main body 10 in the open position), or may be configured to be a component separate from the second hook portion 14a of the first open holding means 6a.
[0104] (N-1) In the case where the third hook portion of the second open holding means is the same part as the second hook portion 14a of the first open holding means 6a (i.e., the third hook portion of the second open holding means also serves as the second hook portion 14a of the first open holding means 6a), for example, the first cover body 20 and the second cover body 30 may be configured to overlap and be hooked onto the second hook portion 14a. In such a configuration, for example, the second hook portion 14a may protrude in the second lateral direction D2 from the first side surface portion 11c of the housing 11 by a length that allows it to be inserted into and hooked onto the second hole portion 21d of the first cover body 20 and the third hole portion of the second cover body 30, respectively.
[0105] (N-2) Furthermore, in the case where the third hook portion of the second open holding means is a separate part from the second hook portion 14a of the first open holding means 6a, for example, the third hook portion of the second open holding means may be provided on a surface (for example, the second side surface 11d, the back surface 11e, etc.) different from the first side surface 11c of the housing 11 on which the second hook portion 14a of the first open holding means 6a is provided.
[0106] (O) For example, the order of execution of each step, such as the operations, procedures, steps, and stages, in the methods and apparatuses shown in the claims, specifications, and drawings, can be implemented in any order, as long as the result of a previous step is not used in a subsequent step. For example, even if a description is made using "first," "next," etc. for convenience, this does not mean that the steps must be executed in that order. [Explanation of symbols]
