Abstract

A servicing and monitoring system for monitoring a gate member which is moved by a drive apparatus. The servicing and monitoring system includes a drive control unit which actuates the drive apparatus, a detection device which detects a gate status of the gate member, a first data connection which connects the drive control unit and the detection device and via which a status signal of the gate member is transmitted from the detection device to the drive control unit, and a data reading device which reads the status signal sent from the detection device to the drive control unit and which outputs an alarm signal depending on the status signal read by the data reading device.

Claims (21)

1. A servicing and monitoring system for monitoring a gate member which is configured to be moved by a drive apparatus, the servicing and monitoring system comprising:

a drive control unit actuates the drive apparatus;

at least one detection device detects a gate status of the gate member;

a first data connection which connects the drive control unit and the at least one detection device and via which a status signal of the gate member is transmitted from the at least one detection device to the drive control unit;

a data reading device to read the status signal sent from the at least one detection device to the drive control unit and to output an alarm signal in dependence on the status signal as read by the data reading device; and

a central unit comprising a data base memory which stores the alarm signal and an evaluation unit which evaluates the alarm signal,

wherein,

the data reading device is connected to the central unit via a second data connection.

2. The servicing and monitoring system as recited in claim 1 , wherein the gate member is a rolling gate or a sectional gate.

3. The servicing and monitoring system as recited in claim 1 , wherein the data reading device comprises a mechanical connection or a radio connection with the first data connection.

4. The servicing and monitoring device system as recited in claim 1 , wherein the data reading device comprises an insulation-displacement connector.

5. The servicing and monitoring device system as recited in claim 1 , wherein the data reading device comprises at least one of a network-compatible communication module, an Internet-compatible communication module, and a mobile radio-compatible communication module.

6. The servicing and monitoring device system as recited in claim 1 , wherein the data reading device is designed as a separate component.

7. The servicing and monitoring device system as recited in claim 1 , wherein the data reading device comprises at least one of a solar cell and a battery.

8. The servicing and monitoring device system as recited in claim 1 , wherein the data reading device is connected to the drive control device or to the at least one detection device.

9. The servicing and monitoring device system as recited in claim 1 , wherein the data reading device is designed to comprise a part of the drive control device or of the detection device.

10. The servicing and monitoring device system as recited in claim 1 , wherein the data reading device comprises a memory module.

11. The servicing and monitoring device system as recited in claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first data connection and the second data connection are configured at least in part as at least one of a wired connection and a radio connection.

12. The servicing and monitoring device system as recited in claim 1 , wherein the at least one detection device comprises at least one sensor from which the status signal is transmitted to the drive control unit.

13. The servicing and monitoring device system as recited in claim 12 , wherein at least one the detection device comprises at least one sensor which comprises a radio module.

14. The servicing and monitoring device system as recited in claim 1 , wherein at least one the detection device comprises at least one sensor which is provided as a rotary encoder, a light barrier, a closing edge safety device or a vibration sensor.
