DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0009] Embodiment 1 1 is a block diagram showing an elevator apparatus according to Embodiment 1. The elevator apparatus according to Embodiment 1 includes a car 1, a germicidal lamp 2, an in-car operating panel 3, an in-car display device 4, a hall operating panel 5, and an elevator control panel 6.

[0010] 2 is a front view showing the car 1, germicidal lamp 2, in-car operation panel 3, and in-car display device 4 of FIG. 1. The car 1 has a car body 101 where passengers get on and off, and a car door 102 provided on the car body 101. A car entrance / exit 103 through which passengers pass is formed in the car body 101. The car door 102 opens and closes the car entrance / exit 103.

[0011] The germicidal lamp 2 has a germicidal lamp ceiling part 201 provided on the ceiling part of the car 1. In the first embodiment, the germicidal lamp 2 has only the germicidal lamp ceiling part 201. When the germicidal lamp ceiling part 201 is turned on, germicidal ultraviolet light is emitted downward from the germicidal lamp ceiling part 201. The germicidal ultraviolet light emitted from the germicidal lamp ceiling part 201 hits the wall part of the car 1, the floor part of the car 1, the in-car operation panel 3, and the passenger inside the car 1. The germicidal lamp 2 is electrically connected to the elevator control panel 6.

[0012] The car operation panel 3 is provided on a sleeve wall portion of the wall portion of the car 1. The car operation panel 3 has a plurality of destination floor buttons 301, a sterilization button 302, a door open button 303, and a door close button 304. The car operation panel 3 is electrically connected to the elevator control panel 6.

[0013] Each of the multiple destination floor buttons 301 corresponds to a respective one of multiple floors where the car 1 will stop. The destination floor buttons 301 are operated by the user. When one of the multiple destination floor buttons 301 is operated, car call information is input to the elevator control panel 6, with the floor corresponding to the operated destination floor button 301 being the destination floor.

[0014] The sterilization button 302 is a button for turning on the sterilizing lamp 2. The sterilization button 302 is operated by a user. When the sterilization button 302 is operated, sterilization button operation information for turning on the sterilizing lamp 2 is input to the elevator control panel 6.

[0015] The door open button 303 is a button for moving the car door 102 in the door open direction. The door open button 303 is operated by a user. When the door open button 303 is operated, door open button operation information for moving the car door 102 in the door open direction is input to the elevator control panel 6.

[0016] The door closing button 304 is a button for moving the car door 102 in the door closing direction. The door closing button 304 is operated by a user. When the door closing button 304 is operated, door closing button operation information for moving the car door 102 in the door closing direction is input to the elevator control panel 6.

[0017] The in-car display device 4 is provided on the sleeve wall portion of the wall portion of the car 1. The in-car display device 4 is located above the in-car operation panel 3. The in-car display device 4 displays a number indicating the floor on which the car 1 is located and an arrow indicating the direction of movement of the car 1. When the car 1 is stopped, the in-car display device 4 does not display the arrow indicating the direction of movement of the car 1. The in-car display device 4 is electrically connected to the elevator control panel 6.

[0018] Fig. 3 is a front view showing the hall operating panel 5 of Fig. 1. The hall operating panel 5 is provided on the wall of the floor where the hall is located. The hall operating panel 5 has a downward call button 501, an upward call button 502, and a hall display device 503. The hall operating panel 5 is electrically connected to the elevator control panel 6.

[0019] Downward call button 501 is operated by a user. When downward call button 501 is operated, hall call information is input to elevator control panel 6 to move car 1 going downward to the floor where the operated downward call button 501 is installed.

[0020] Upward call button 502 is operated by a user. When upward call button 502 is operated, hall call information is input to elevator control panel 6 to move car 1 going upward to the floor where the operated upward call button 502 is installed.

[0021] The platform display device 503 is disposed above the downward call button 501 and the upward call button 502. The platform display device 503 displays a number indicating the floor where car 1 is located and an arrow indicating the direction of movement of car 1. When car 1 is stopped, the platform display device 503 does not display the arrow indicating the direction of movement of car 1. Furthermore, when the germicidal lamp 2 is lit, the platform display device 503 displays text indicating that the inside of car 1 is being sterilized.

[0022] As shown in Fig. 1, elevator control panel 6 controls the movement of car 1 by controlling the drive of a hoisting machine (not shown). When car call information is input to elevator control panel 6, elevator control panel 6 moves car 1 to the floor corresponding to the operated destination floor button 301 as the destination floor. When hall call information is input to elevator control panel 6, elevator control panel 6 moves car 1 to the floor where the operated hall operating panel 5 is installed.

[0023] A first operation pattern and a second operation pattern are preset in the elevator control panel 6 as operation patterns for moving the car 1 to the destination floor. The movement time of the second operation pattern is longer than the movement time of the first operation pattern. Therefore, the movement speed of the car 1 moving in the second operation pattern is slower than the movement speed of the car 1 moving in the first operation pattern.

[0024] When the destination floor button 301 is operated and the sterilization button 302 is not operated, the elevator control panel 6 moves the car 1 in the first operation pattern. On the other hand, when the destination floor button 301 is operated and the sterilization button 302 is operated, the elevator control panel 6 moves the car 1 in the second operation pattern.

[0025] The elevator control panel 6 controls the movement of the car doors 102. When door-opening button operation information is input to the elevator control panel 6, the elevator control panel 6 moves the car doors 102 in the door-opening direction. When door-closing button operation information is input to the elevator control panel 6, the elevator control panel 6 moves the car doors 102 in the door-closing direction.

[0026] The elevator control panel 6 controls the lighting of the germicidal lamp 2. When both car call information and sterilization button operation information are input to the elevator control panel 6, the elevator control panel 6 turns on the germicidal lamp 2.

[0027] Therefore, when the destination floor button 301 is operated and the sterilization button 302 is not operated, the sterilization lamp 2 does not light up, and the elevator control panel 6 moves the car 1 to the destination floor corresponding to the operated destination floor button 301.

[0028] On the other hand, when the destination floor button 301 is operated and the sterilization button 302 is also operated, the sterilization lamp 2 is turned on and the elevator control panel 6 moves the car 1 to the destination floor corresponding to the operated destination floor button 301.

[0029] The elevator control panel 6 controls the display on the car display device 4 and the display on the hall display device 503.

[0030] Next, the operation of the elevator device will be described. Fig. 4 is a flowchart showing the operation of the elevator device according to the first embodiment. Fig. 4 shows the operation of the elevator device when hall call information is input to the elevator control panel 6, causing the car 1 to move to the floor where the operated hall operating panel 5 is installed, the car doors 102 to move in the door-opening direction, and then the car doors to move in the door-closing direction. First, in step S101, the elevator control panel 6 determines whether the destination floor button 301 has been operated.

[0031] In step S101, when the elevator control panel 6 determines that the destination floor button 301 has been operated, the elevator control panel 6 determines in step S102 whether the sterilization button 302 has been operated.

[0032] If the elevator control panel 6 determines in step S102 that the sterilization button 302 has been operated, then in step S103 the elevator control panel 6 moves the car 1 to the destination floor corresponding to the destination floor button 301 while turning on the sterilizing lamp 2. In other words, the car 1 moves to the destination floor while the sterilizing lamp 2 is turned on. The movement of the car 1 in step S103 is the movement of the car 1 in the second operation pattern. After the car 1 arrives at the destination floor and the sterilizing lamp 2 is turned off in step S103, the car door 102 moves in the door-opening direction in step S104, and then the car door 102 moves in the door-closing direction, thereby completing the operation of the elevator device.

[0033] If the elevator control panel 6 determines in step S102 that the sterilization button 302 has not been operated, then in step S105 the elevator control panel 6 moves the car 1 to the destination floor corresponding to the destination floor button 301 without turning on the sterilization lamp 2. In other words, the car 1 moves to the destination floor without turning on the sterilization lamp 2. The movement of the car 1 in step S105 is the movement of the car 1 in the first operation pattern. After the car 1 arrives at the destination floor in step S105, the car door 102 moves in the door-opening direction in step S104, and then the car door 102 moves in the door-closing direction, ending the operation of the elevator device.

[0034] If the elevator control panel 6 determines in step S101 that the destination floor button 301 has not been operated, the elevator control panel 6 determines in step S106 whether the sterilization button 302 has been operated.

[0035] If the elevator control panel 6 determines in step S106 that the sterilization button 302 has been operated, the elevator control panel 6 turns on the germicidal lamp 2 for a preset time period while the car 1 is stopped in step S107. In other words, the germicidal lamp 2 is turned on for a preset time period while the car 1 is stopped. In this case, the passenger uses the elevator system to sterilize themselves without moving to another floor. In step S107, the germicidal lamp 2 is turned on for a preset time period, and after the germicidal lamp 2 is turned off, in step S104 the car door 102 moves in the door-opening direction, and then the car door 102 moves in the door-closing direction, thereby completing the operation of the elevator system.

[0036] In step S106, if the elevator control panel 6 determines that the sterilization button 302 has not been operated, the operation of the elevator device ends immediately.

[0037] As described above, the elevator apparatus according to the first embodiment includes the car 1, the germicidal lamp 2 provided in the car 1, the in-car operation panel 3 having the destination floor button 301 and the sterilization button 302, and the elevator control panel 6 that controls the movement of the car 1. When the destination floor button 301 and the sterilization button 302 are operated, the elevator control panel 6 moves the car 1 to the destination floor corresponding to the operated destination floor button 301 while the germicidal lamp 2 is turned on. According to this configuration, when a user operates both the destination floor button 301 and the sterilization button 302, the car 1 moves to the destination floor while the germicidal lamp 2 is turned on. As a result, the germicidal lamp 2 can be turned on in response to the user's request. This allows sterilization of users of the elevator apparatus, such as medical personnel or cleaners, while using the elevator apparatus.

[0038] Furthermore, when the destination floor button 301 is operated but the sterilization button 302 is not operated, the elevator control panel 6 moves the car 1 in the first operation pattern. On the other hand, when the destination floor button 301 is operated and the sterilization button 302 is operated, the elevator control panel 6 moves the car 1 in the second operation pattern. The travel time in the second operation pattern is longer than the travel time in the first operation pattern. With this configuration, by having a user operate both the destination floor button 301 and the sterilization button 302, the travel time of the car 1 moving to the destination floor can be extended. As a result, the time for which the sterilization lamp 2 is turned on can be extended in response to a user's request.

[0039] The germicidal lamp 2 also has a germicidal lamp ceiling part 201 provided on the ceiling part of the cage 1. When the germicidal lamp ceiling part 201 is turned on, germicidal ultraviolet light is emitted downward from the germicidal lamp ceiling part 201. With this configuration, germicidal ultraviolet light can be directed onto the user's clothes and exposed parts of the user's body. As a result, the user's clothes and exposed parts of the user's body can be sterilized.

[0040] The elevator device may further include a speaker device that generates a sound to notify users that the germicidal lamp 2 is on when the germicidal lamp 2 is on. Examples of the sound to notify users that the germicidal lamp 2 is on include an announcement or music indicating that the germicidal lamp 2 is on.

[0041] Embodiment 2 5 is a block diagram showing an elevator apparatus according to embodiment 2. The elevator apparatus further includes a standby state detection device 7 that detects whether the car 1 is in a standby state. The standby state detection device 7 is electrically connected to the elevator control panel 6.

[0042] The standby state is the state of the car 1 when it is waiting without moving. When the time during which neither the car operating panel 3 nor the hall operating panel 5 is operated reaches a preset time, the state of the car 1 becomes the standby state. The detection result of the standby state detection device 7 is input to the elevator control panel 6.

[0043] When the standby state detection device 7 detects that the car 1 is in a standby state, the elevator control panel 6 turns on the germicidal lamp 2 for a preset time.

[0044] Other configurations of the elevator apparatus according to the second embodiment are similar to those of the elevator apparatus according to the first embodiment.

[0045] As described above, the elevator system according to the second embodiment includes a standby state detection device 7 that detects that the car 1 is in a standby state. When the standby state detection device 7 detects that the car 1 is in a standby state, the germicidal lamp 2 is turned on. According to this configuration, when the car 1 is in a standby state, germicidal ultraviolet light can be applied to the inner wall surface of the car 1. As a result, when the car 1 is in a standby state, the inner wall surface of the car 1 can be sterilized.

[0046] The germicidal lamp 2 that is turned on when the sterilization button 302 is operated and the germicidal lamp 2 that is turned on when the standby state detection device 7 detects that the cage 1 is in a standby state may be different germicidal lamps. In this case, the germicidal lamp 2 that is turned on when the sterilization button 302 is operated may be configured to emit germicidal ultraviolet light that has little effect on the human body. On the other hand, the germicidal lamp 2 that is turned on when the standby state detection device 7 detects that the cage 1 is in a standby state may be configured to emit germicidal ultraviolet light with enhanced germicidal power. When the cage 1 is in a standby state, there is no user inside the cage 1. Therefore, when germicidal ultraviolet light with enhanced germicidal power is emitted inside the cage 1, the inside of the cage 1 can be more effectively sterilized without affecting the user.

[0047] Embodiment 3 6 is a block diagram showing an elevator apparatus according to embodiment 3. In the elevator apparatus according to embodiment 3, the germicidal lamp 2 has a germicidal lamp ceiling unit 201 provided on the ceiling of the car 1 and a plurality of germicidal lamp floor board units 202 provided on the floor board of the car 1. When the germicidal lamp floor board unit 202 is turned on, germicidal ultraviolet light is emitted upward from the germicidal lamp floor board unit 202.

[0048] Fig. 7 is a plan view showing the germicidal lamp base plate unit 202 of Fig. 6. A plurality of germicidal lamp base plate units 202 are provided on the base plate portion of the car 1. In Fig. 7, one germicidal lamp base plate unit 202 is provided at each of five locations on the base plate portion of the car 1.

[0049] A picture of a shoe is displayed on the floor of the car 1 where the germicidal lamp floor board part 202 is installed. This notifies the user of the floor of the car 1 where the germicidal lamp floor board part 202 is installed. When the user stands on the floor of the car 1 where the shoe-shaped picture is displayed, the user can place their shoes above the germicidal lamp floor board part 202.

[0050] 6, the elevator apparatus according to the third embodiment further includes a user detection device 8 that detects users in a preset area on the floor board portion of the car 1. The user detection device 8 is electrically connected to the elevator control panel 6.

[0051] The area where the user detection device 8 detects a user coincides with the floor panel portion of the car 1 where the germicidal lamp floor panel unit 202 is installed. Therefore, when a user stands on the floor panel portion of the car 1 where a picture of a shoe is displayed, the user detection device 8 detects the user in a predetermined area on the floor panel portion of the car 1. The detection result of the user detection device 8 is input to the elevator control panel 6.

[0052] When the destination floor button 301 is operated, the sterilization button 302 is operated, and the user detection device 8 detects that the user is in a predetermined area, the elevator control panel 6 turns on the sterilization lamp floor panel section 202.

[0053] Among the multiple germicidal lamp floor board sections 202, the only germicidal lamp floor board section 202 that lights up is the germicidal lamp floor board section 202 that is located on the floor board portion of the car 1 where the user is detected by the user detection device 8.

[0054] Other configurations of the elevator apparatus according to embodiment 3 are similar to those of the elevator apparatus according to embodiment 1. As with the elevator apparatus according to embodiment 2, the elevator apparatus according to embodiment 3 may be configured to include a standby state detection device 7 that detects that the state of car 1 is in a standby state.

[0055] As described above, in the elevator apparatus according to the third embodiment, the germicidal lamp 2 has the germicidal lamp floor panel unit 202 provided on the floor panel of the car 1. When the germicidal lamp floor panel unit 202 is turned on, germicidal ultraviolet light is emitted upward from the germicidal lamp floor panel unit 202. With this configuration, germicidal ultraviolet light can be applied to the soles of the shoes of the user. As a result, the soles of the shoes of the user can be sterilized.

[0056] The elevator apparatus according to the third embodiment also includes a user detection device 8 that detects a user in a preset area on the floor panel of the car 1. When the destination floor button 301 is operated, the sterilization button 302 is operated, and the user detection device 8 detects that the user is in the preset area, the germicidal lamp floor panel unit 202 is turned on. With this configuration, germicidal ultraviolet light can be applied to the soles of the user's shoes when the user is in the preset area. This allows the germicidal ultraviolet light to be applied to the soles of the user's shoes more accurately. As a result, the soles of the user's shoes can be more reliably sterilized.
