In addition, by outputting voice and direction signals from external elevator buttons, disabled and non-disabled people can use the elevator more safely.

The handicapped or the elderly are the socially underprivileged and are the subject of social consideration.

However, if you look at the surrounding environment, there are many parts that are not at all.

In particular, people with disabilities who are inherently incapable of moving have significant restrictions on their activities.

However, some of the disabled or visually impaired who can ride a wheelchair are able to engage in economic activities and are active in a relatively large number of areas.

However, many inconveniences are still distributed everywhere because the facilities do not support this. Elevators are the most common.

In the case of elevators, the handicapped button is placed in a relatively low position so that it can be pressed while riding in a wheelchair, but the reality is that there are a lot of lack of convenience facilities for the disabled.

Accordingly, the present applicant has developed an elevator technology disclosed in the following [Prior Art Document], applied for a patent, and received registration.

The registration technology secures the area by turning on the LED bar to secure a space for the disabled inside the elevator car, and lowers the illumination of the LED bar when operating the car to increase the convenience of boarding for wheelchairs and disabled people. will be.

Since then, in the process of continuing the application of the technology, more convenient functions are required, so it is necessary to improve them.

In addition, since the elevator does not have a fire detection function and is not equipped with a fire extinguisher, there is a disadvantage in that the risk of safety accidents increases because there is no ability to detect a fire due to an unexpected cause.

In addition, the visually impaired have a limited way to find the location of the elevator on their own, so it is a reality that they are restricted from moving.

In addition, the purpose of the elevator is to ensure the safety and convenience for the disabled and to use the elevator satisfactorily for the disabled and non-disabled.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments according to the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The system according to the present invention corresponds to a technology further improved based on the registered patent registered by the present applicant as a basic concept. Therefore, concepts including basic drawings will be omitted and only the key features to be discussed in the present invention will be described.

1 to 2, the system according to the present invention is composed of a wireless signal transmitter 11 for the disabled and a wireless signal receiver 12, and when the disabled person presses the transmission button 11-1, the wireless signal transmitter 11 ) transmits wireless data through radio waves. At this time, the wireless signal receiving unit 12 transmits the received wireless data signal to the control unit 1, and the control unit 1 recognizes the signal and transmits disabled guidance voice information to the audio output unit 4. The audio output unit 4 outputs the received audio information as a voice announcement through a speaker.

In addition, the control unit 1, the card recognition unit 2 connected to the control unit 1 and installed inside the lower end of the call button unit 7, and the card for recognizing the disabled in the card recognition unit 2 recognizes A recognition unit, an audio output unit 4 that outputs boarding information for the disabled by voice when the disabled card is recognized by the card recognition unit 2, and a fire detector 10 attached to the inner wall of the elevator 8 and capable of short-distance communication ), and an elevator communication unit 6 provided to communicate with the fire detector 10 and immediately output a fire occurrence signal to the management server S when a corresponding signal of the fire detector 10 is received.

Thus, when the card for recognizing the disabled is touched to the card recognition unit 2, the control unit 1 is configured to recognize it.

In addition, the vibrator provided on the floor of the elevator spreads the vibration within a predetermined range (refer to the dotted line) as shown in FIG. 5 of the accompanying drawings.

At this time, the vibrator generates vibration so that the visually impaired can safely board at the boarding point (or the center of the elevator floor plate), thereby preventing a collision accident due to contact with a non-disabled person in advance.

In addition, the vibrator may be located at a boarding point in the elevator (or at the center of the car floor plate) so that the vibration spreads around the boarding point, so that the disabled person can recognize the boarding point by the strength of the vibration. At this time, the disabled person can recognize that the maximum point of vibration is the center of the boarding point.

In addition, the vibration control unit enables vibration to be generated while the elevator is stopped and the door is opened and closed, so that the disabled, especially the visually impaired, can recognize that the elevator door is closed.

On the other hand, in configuring the vibrator, it can be selectively designed with reference to the configuration in [Table 1] below.

According to [Table 1], the elevator floor plate can be designed as a mechanical coupling structure for installing the vibrator on its lower surface, which does not deviate from the general mechanical structure design. In addition, a closing plate is formed on the upper side of the vibration diffusion plate, and the closing plate is supported by the extension groove and the vibration diffusion plate, and may be coupled using bolts, adhesion, welding, or the like.

As the elevator floor plate and vibration plate are integrated, the structure can be simplified by using a material that is easy to transmit vibration. In addition, it may be configured with a mechanical design for facilitating the attachment of the vibrator to the lower surface and transmission of vibration.

What has been described using the drawings above is only the main points of the present invention, and it is obvious that the present invention is not limited to the configuration of the drawings as various designs are possible within the technical scope.

In particular, when the visually impaired person operates the sending button 11-1 of the wireless signal transmitter 11 to determine the location of the elevator, a wireless signal is transmitted through radio waves, and when the wireless signal is received, the voice output unit 4 outputs a voice. “This is the elevator boarding area. A voice message such as "Please give way when boarding a disabled person" or a sound signal such as "Ding-dong" can also be output. The visually impaired can recognize the location of the elevator by recognizing these voice signals and acoustic signals.

In addition, when the handicapped recognition card is touched, the control unit 1 switches to the disabled mode and outputs a voice message through the audio output unit 4 at the same time.

That is, the control unit 1 can output a voice such as 'a disabled person is boarding' inside the car, and by notifying in advance that a disabled person will board at the platform, non-disabled people and disabled people can safely board.

In addition, if you press the up button (B1) to move upward on the platform, it outputs a voice such as 'The up button has been registered' along with the selected display lamp or, conversely, 'the down button has been registered' when you press the down button (B2). It is possible to use the elevator more safely by confirming that the visually impaired person has registered the button.

Also, when an elevator in the upward direction for the hearing impaired arrives, the upward direction lamp flickers from the previous floor. When a descending elevator arrives, the descending direction lamp flickers from the previous floor, indicating the arrival of the elevator in advance.

As a safety measure for the visually impaired, when an ascending car arrives soon, an announcement is made that “an ascending car will arrive soon”.

When a descending car arrives soon, it is notified with an announcement saying “A descending car will arrive soon” so that the visually impaired can know beforehand that the elevator is arriving, enabling safe boarding.

In addition, when a person with a disability boarding a wheelchair is boarded, 'We will move to the destination of the disabled first. As soon as the disabled operation is completed, general operation will be carried out. I would appreciate it if you wait a little for the disabled' etc. can be output.

In addition, when the disabled person boards and presses the destination floor, the elevator 8 is operated to first move to the destination designated by the disabled person unconditionally in the disabled operation mode.

To this end, the card recognition unit (2) must also be assigned to the button setting unit inside the elevator (8), and the disabled person must first recognize the disabled card inside the elevator (8) after boarding and then press the destination floor in the disabled priority mode. is executed

In addition, it is better if the disabled sign (P) is made of a color LCD (LCD) containing tempered glass with excellent mechanical strength on the floor for entering and exiting the elevator (8) or partially painted to visually stand out. 3 shows the display of the disabled according to the embodiment.

In addition, the fire detector 10 is a detector capable of detecting smoke or heat or both, and is configured to output a specific signal unconditionally when a fire is detected because a short-range communication module is mounted thereon.

Then, the elevator communication unit 6 is set to receive the specific signal, and as soon as it receives the signal, it recognizes that it is a fire and transmits a signal to the management server S to respond immediately.

If the fire detector operates, the evacuation floor Or, it is automatically called to the nearest floor to arrive at the designated floor and induce passengers to evacuate quickly and safely.

In this case, the elevator communication unit 6 has a unique allocation code, so that the unique allocation code is transmitted together when the signal is transmitted, so that the management server S can immediately know at which location the elevator 8 has a fire. .

On the other hand, the present invention is characterized in that the fire detector 10 is configured to be detachable and can be installed without drawing commercial power through a replaceable battery usage method, so that the installation location is not limited.

To this end, the present invention includes a fixing unit 50 as shown in FIGS. 4 to 6 so that the fire detector 10 can be easily separated and mounted.

The fixing unit 50 includes an attachment sheet 51 fixed to the inner wall of the elevator, a cover 52 attached to the attachment sheet 51, a base housing 53 covered with the cover 52, and , the protruding part 54 protruding in a rectangular shape from the opposite surface of the cover 52 of the base housing 53, the pin fixing part 55 protruding again at a distance from each other on the surface of the protruding part 54, and the pin go A fixing pin 56 fixed across the top 55, a 'c'-shaped insertion piece 57 inserted into and bound to the fixing pin 56, and the insertion piece 57 are integrally formed and fire A piece base 58 screwed to the lower surface of the sensor 10, and one side of the insertion piece 57 when it is embedded in the base housing 53 and the insertion piece 57 is inserted into the fixing pin 56 It includes a locking member 59 that is inserted into and fixed.

At this time, the adhesive sheet 51 is a gel type sheet. Unlike general adhesives, this adhesive sheet 51 is not liquid, has high fixing power, and strong waterproof, heat resistance, antifouling, erosion resistance, weather resistance, and water resistance, so that it does not easily deteriorate even when used in an external environment for a long time, and thus achieves long lifespan. It should be structured so that

Meanwhile, the inside of the base housing 53 is empty, and a hole is formed in the protruding portion 54, so that the locking member 59 is built in so as to be able to appear and retract.

At this time, the locking hole 59 is formed on the outer surface of one side of the insertion piece 57 protruding from one side of the locking block 59a sliding inside the base housing 53 and the locking block 59a. A locking hook 59b caught in the locking groove 57a, a spring bar 59c protruding on the opposite side of the locking hook 59b, and inserted into the spring bar 59c and hooked on the inner wall of the base housing 53 and a coil spring 59d for elastically supporting the locking block 59a, and an operating bar 59e protruding from the upper surface of the locking block 59a and exposed through one side of the base housing 53. include

Thus, when the insertion piece 57 is inserted into the fixing pin 56, the locking hook 59b is caught in the locking groove 57a so that the insertion piece 57 is not separated, and when separating, the operating bar ( When 59e) is tilted, the coil spring 59d is compressed and the hook 59b comes out of the locking groove 57a, so that the insertion piece 57 can be separated.

In this way, it is convenient to install and use because it can be easily assembled, fixed, separated, and dismantled, and has the advantage of being freely installed in vulnerable areas such as inside the elevator to monitor fire.

Meanwhile, in configuring the vibrator, the configuration in [Table 2] below may be referred to.

According to [Table 2], an insertion hole for inserting a vibrator is formed on the lower surface of the elevator floor plate, and this insertion hole is formed only in a concave groove shape.

In addition, the upper surface of the bottom plate has an interpolation groove concave downward, and such an interpolation groove is formed only to a position lower than the uppermost surface of the bottom plate, and then an extension groove is further formed upward.

At this time, a vibration diffusion plate is interpolated into the interpolation groove, and the vibration diffusion plate has a size within the range of vibration by the vibrator. It is natural to have the size of the interpolation groove equal to the size of the vibration diffusion plate.

In addition, a closing plate is formed on the upper side of the vibration diffusion plate, and the closing plate is supported by the extension groove and the vibration diffusion plate, and may be coupled using bolts, adhesion, welding, or the like. The finishing plate is made of the same material as the floor plate so as not to harm the aesthetics of the floor plate inside the elevator.

However, the vibration diffusion plate may be composed of a material that is advantageous for vibration diffusion and may be configured in an integral plate shape, but as shown in [Table 2], it is divided into an upper plate and a lower plate, and the upper and lower plates are spaced apart, A connecting pillar is connected therebetween, and a spring is provided between the connecting pillars.

At this time, the spring is coupled to the lower plate by welding or the like in a state of being inserted into the outer surface of the connecting column, and is configured to be separated from the upper plate by a predetermined interval.

However, in the vibration diffusion plate, differently from [Table 2], the gap between the connecting pillar and the spring may be increased toward the outside of the vibration diffusion plate, or the structure of the connecting pillar and spring may be excluded from the center. there is.

Through this spacing adjustment and exclusion configuration, the intensity of vibration by the vibrator decreases as the distance from the vibrator increases, and the intensity of vibration at the location where the vibrator is installed can be the strongest. Accordingly, among the disabled, especially the visually impaired, It can be guided to the center of the elevator using a means such as a cane, and it is possible to use the elevator safely accordingly.
