An elevator used in the following embodiments is mounted with a so-called smart door, a camera device is provided on a curtain plate above a car, a user is photographed by the camera device at an elevator riding place during a reaching period, and when a user intending to ride the elevator is detected based on the photographed information, the smart door reopens the elevator door and extends the door.
EXAMPLE 1 embodiment
< construction of Elevator System of embodiment 1 >
The configuration of an elevator system according to embodiment 1 of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 1. The elevator system 1A of the present embodiment includes: a car 2 provided in the elevator shaft; an in-car operation panel 21 provided in the car 2; a camera device 22 and an image analysis device 23A provided on the upper part of the car 2; a car door 24; a hoist 3 for lifting the car 2; an elevator-taking place operation panel 41 and an elevator-taking place speaker 42 provided in the elevator-taking place 4; and an elevator control device 50A provided in an upper part of the hoistway. The elevator control device 50A is connected to the car 2 via a lead 61, and is connected to the hoisting machine 3, the boarding area operation panel 41, and the boarding area speaker 42 via a signal line 62. The camera device 22 provided in the car 2 is used for a smart door.
The in-car operation panel 21 has a destination layer registration button for allowing a user in the car 2 to perform a destination layer registration operation, and when the button operation is detected, information indicating the operation content is transmitted to the elevator control device 50A via the lead wire 61. The camera device 22 photographs an area X in the elevator hall 4, which is set in advance as an area for detecting users of the elevator. The image analysis device 23A analyzes the imaging information of the area X in the boarding area 4 imaged by the camera device 22. As a result of the analysis, when it is detected that the car 2 is closed and departs and a user is not loaded in a state where the user cannot be loaded despite the intention of riding the car 2 after the car 2 opens the door at any floor, the non-loaded generation detection information is generated and transmitted to the elevator control device 50A. Here, whether or not the user located in the area X has the meaning of riding on the car 2 is determined by whether or not the user has performed an operation toward the car 2, whether or not the user is heading in the direction of the car 2, or the like.
The boarding area operation panel 41 has a boarding area call registration button for allowing a user in the boarding area 4 to perform a boarding area call registration operation, and when the button operation is detected, information indicating the operation content is transmitted to the elevator control device 50A via the signal line 62. The boarding location speaker 42 outputs broadcast information to the users located at the boarding location 4 based on an instruction from the elevator control device 50A.
The elevator control device 50A includes: an operation status information acquisition unit 51, a call registration unit 52, a response order determination unit 53A, an operation control unit 54, an analysis information acquisition unit 55, and an automatic call generation unit 56A.
The operating condition information acquiring unit 51 acquires the operating conditions of each device in the car 2 and/or the operating condition of the hoisting machine 3 at predetermined time intervals. The call registration unit 52 registers a hall call based on the operation content of the hall operation panel 41, and registers a car call based on the operation content of the in-car operation panel 21. The response order determination unit 53A determines the response order of the call registered in the call registration unit 52. The operation control unit 54 operates the devices in the elevator so that the car 2 arrives in the response order determined by the response order determination unit 53A. The analysis information acquisition unit 55 acquires the non-load occurrence detection information transmitted from the image analysis device 23A. When the non-load occurrence detection information is acquired by the analysis information acquisition unit 55, the automatic call generation unit 56A automatically generates a boarding facility call in which the boarding facility 4 in which the user is not loaded is generated, and registers the boarding facility call in the call registration unit 52.
< operation of the elevator system according to embodiment 1 >
Next, the operation in the elevator system 1A of the present embodiment will be described. In the present embodiment, when a user at the boarding area 4 presses a boarding area call registration button indicating the up direction or the down direction on the boarding area operation panel 41 to perform a boarding area call registration operation, information indicating the content of the operation is transmitted to the elevator control device 50A via the signal line 62. When a user in the car 2 presses a destination floor registration button indicating any floor on the in-car operation panel 21 to perform a destination floor registration operation, information indicating the operation content is transmitted to the elevator control device 50A via the lead 61.
In the elevator control device 50A, the hall call is registered in the call registration unit 52 based on the hall call registration operation information transmitted from the hall operation panel 41. In addition, a car call is registered in the call registration unit 52 based on the information of the destination floor registration operation transmitted from the in-car operation panel 21. Then, the response order determination unit 53A determines the response order of the call registered in the call registration unit 52, and the operation control unit operates the devices in the elevator system 1A so that the car 2 arrives in the response order.
The processing performed in the elevator system 1A when the car 2 arrives at any floor and the door is opened during operation will be described with reference to the sequence diagram of fig. 3.
When the car door 24 of the car 2 is opened at any floor, the camera device 22 starts imaging the area X in the boarding area 4 of the floor where the car arrives. The imaging information generated by imaging is acquired by the image analysis device 23A, and the image analysis processing unit 231A executes image analysis processing (S1).
Here, it is assumed that: the user at the car riding place 4 moves to the car 2, but the car 2 is crowded and fails to ride on, and thus the car 2 is closed and departs. At this time, the image analysis processing of the image analysis processing unit 231A detects that "after the car 2 opens at the floor, in a state where there is a user who cannot ride on the car 2 despite the fact that the car 2 is riding, the car 2 closes and starts, and a user is not completely loaded" (yes at S2), and generates the non-load occurrence detection information and transmits the non-load occurrence detection information to the elevator control device 50A (S3).
In the elevator control device 50A, the analysis information acquisition unit 55 acquires the non-load occurrence detection information transmitted from the image analysis device 23A (S4). When the non-loaded occurrence detection information is acquired by the analysis information acquisition unit 55, the hall call in which the hall of the non-loaded user occurs is automatically generated by the automatic call generation unit 56A, and is registered in the call registration unit 52 (S5). The order of response of the calls registered in the call registration unit 52, including the newly registered hall call, is determined by the response order determination unit 53A (S6), and the operation control unit 54 operates the devices in the elevator system 1A so that the car 2 arrives in the determined response order (S7). Here, the order of response may be determined so that a call at a landing registered due to occurrence of non-completion of loading is prioritized over calls at other landings.
According to embodiment 1 described above, in the elevator equipped with the smart door, when an incomplete user who cannot get on the elevator is generated in a state where the car is crowded, the user can improve the convenience of the user by automatically detecting the incomplete user and registering the hall call.
In the above-described embodiment, the information indicating the direction in which the car 2 starts can be acquired by the image analysis processing performed by the image analysis processing unit 231A of the image analysis device 23A, and the information can be transmitted to the elevator control device 50A in addition to the non-load occurrence detection information. By transmitting information indicating the direction in which the car 2 starts in advance, the elevator control device 50A can generate an elevator hall call for the elevator hall in that direction and register the call in the call registration unit 52.
EXAMPLE 2 EXAMPLE
< construction of Elevator System of embodiment 2 >
The configuration of the elevator system 1B according to embodiment 2 of the present invention is the same as the configuration of the elevator system 1A described in embodiment 1, and therefore detailed description of portions having the same functions is omitted.
In the present embodiment, when the occurrence of an incomplete user is detected by the image analysis processing, the image analysis processing unit 231B of the image analysis device 23B acquires user information indicating whether the incomplete user is a wheelchair user and an elderly person, and the number of people of the incomplete user. The generated incomplete detection information is added with user information and information on the number of people who have not completed the user, and is transmitted to the elevator control device 50B.
When the non-end occurrence detection information is acquired from the image analysis device 23B, the automatic call generation unit 56B of the elevator control device 50B automatically generates a boarding location call for the boarding location, and adds and registers the corresponding user information and the information on the number of people who have not completed the user in the call registration unit 52. The response order determination unit 53B determines the response order of the call registered by the call registration unit 52, taking into account the added user information and the information on the number of people who have not completed the user.
< operation of the elevator system according to embodiment 2 >
The processing performed in the elevator system 1B when the car 2 arrives at any one floor and the door is opened during the operation of the elevator system 1B of the present embodiment will be described with reference to the sequence diagram of fig. 4.
When the car door 24 of the car 2 is opened at any floor, the camera device 22 starts imaging the predetermined area X in the boarding area 4 of the floor where the car arrives. The imaging information generated by imaging is acquired by the image analysis device 23B, and the image analysis processing unit 231B executes image analysis processing (S11).
Here, when the occurrence of an incomplete user is detected (S12), and the incomplete occurrence detection information is generated by the image analysis processing of the image analysis processing unit 231B, user information indicating whether or not the incomplete user is a wheelchair user and an elderly person, and the number of people of the incomplete user are acquired. Then, the generated incomplete detection information is added with the user information and the information on the number of people who have not completed the user, and is transmitted to the elevator control device 50B (S13).
In the elevator control device 50B, the non-load occurrence detection information sent from the image analysis device 23B is acquired by the analysis information acquisition unit 55 (S14). When the non-loaded occurrence detection information is acquired by the analysis information acquisition unit 55, the hall call in which the elevator with the non-loaded users is present is automatically generated by the automatic call generation unit 56B, and is registered in the call registration unit 52 together with the user information appended to the non-loaded occurrence detection information and the information on the number of people with the non-loaded users (S15). The order of answering the call registered in the call registration unit 52, including the newly registered hall call, is determined by the order of answering determination unit 53B. Here, in determining the response order, information on the number of users who have been called by the elevator and information on the number of people who have not loaded the users are considered (S16).
The process when the response order determination unit 53B determines the response order in consideration of the information on the users who are called by the elevator and the information on the number of people who have not loaded the users will be described with reference to the flowchart of fig. 5. When a new call is registered in the call registration unit 52 (yes in S21), it is determined whether or not there is a wheelchair user among the users who are not loaded, based on the user information added to the registered hall call (S22).
When it is determined that the wheelchair user is present among the non-users (yes at S22), it is further determined whether an elderly person is present among the non-users (S23). Here, when it is determined that the elderly person is present among the non-loaded users (yes in S23), the boarding facility call of the floor on which the wheelchair user is present is set to 1 st priority, the boarding facility call of the floor on which the elderly person is present is set to 2 nd priority, and the boarding facility calls of the other floors are set to 3 rd priority, and when a plurality of floors match each priority, the response order is determined so that the floor with the large number of non-loaded users is prioritized (S24).
When it is determined that there is a wheelchair user among the non-loaded users (yes in S22) but there is no elderly person (no in S23), the hall call of the floor where the wheelchair user is located is set to 1 st priority, the hall calls of the other floors are set to 2 nd priority, and when a plurality of floors match each priority, the response order is determined so that the number of the non-loaded users is large and the floors are prioritized (S25).
When it is determined that there is no wheelchair user among the non-loaded users (no in S22) but there is an elderly person (yes in S26), the hall call of the floor where the elderly person is located is set to 1 st priority, the hall calls of the other floors are set to 2 nd priority, and when a plurality of floors match each priority, the response order is determined so that the floor with a large number of non-loaded persons is prioritized (S27).
When it is determined that there are no wheelchair users and no elderly among the unladen users (no in S22, no in S26), the response order is determined so that the floor with the large number of unladen users is prioritized (S28). In the above, the description has been completed regarding the processing when the response order is determined in consideration of the information of the users who are attached to the calls at the elevator boarding location and the information of the number of people who have not completed the users.
Returning to fig. 4, when the response order is determined in step S16, the operation control unit 54 operates the devices in the elevator system 1B so that the car 2 arrives in the determined response order (S17).
According to embodiment 2 described above, in the elevator equipped with the smart door, when an incomplete user who cannot ride the elevator car is present in a crowded state of the car, the incomplete user is detected, and a hall call is automatically registered so that a wheelchair user and/or an elderly person, who are highly necessary to use the elevator, give priority to the user.
In the above-described embodiment 2, when it is determined that there is a wheelchair user when the boarding gate call is automatically registered, the boarding gate call for the wheelchair user may be registered. For a call from a boarding place for a wheelchair user, the operation control unit 54 extends the door opening time of the corresponding floor.
EXAMPLE 3
< construction of Elevator System according to embodiment 3 >
The elevator system 1C according to embodiment 3 of the present invention is also directed to other elevators installed in the building. Further, as shown in fig. 6, the elevator control device 50C includes a call registration changing unit 57 connected to an elevator control device 50P of another elevator, and is similar in configuration to the elevator system 1A described in embodiment 1, and therefore, detailed description of portions having the same functions is omitted.
The call registration changing unit 57 acquires the operation condition information of the other elevator acquired from the elevator control device 50P when the hall call is newly registered, and changes the call registration so that the registration of the corresponding call is deleted from the call registration unit 52 and the other elevator control device 50P responds when the other elevator can respond to the call whose response order determined by the response order determining unit 53C is the 1 st call faster than the own elevator.
< operation of the elevator system according to embodiment 3 >
The operation of the elevator system 1C of the present embodiment will be described with reference to the sequence diagram of fig. 7. In fig. 6, the processing of steps S31 to S36 is the same as the processing of steps S1 to S6 described in embodiment 1, and thus detailed description thereof is omitted. When the response order determination unit 53C determines the response order of the call in step S36, the call registration change unit 57 acquires the operation state information of the other elevator from the other elevator control device 50P. Then, based on the acquired operating state information of the other elevator, it is determined whether or not the other elevator can respond to the 1 st call in the response order determined by the response order determination unit 53C faster than the own elevator (S37).
Here, when it is determined that the other elevator can respond to the call in the 1 st order faster than the own elevator (yes in S37), the call registration changing unit 57 changes the call registration so that the registration of the corresponding call is deleted from the call registration unit 52, and the other elevator control device 50P responds (S38). When it is determined in step S37 that the own elevator can answer faster than the other elevators (no in S37), the operation control unit 54 operates the devices in the elevator system 1C so that the car 2 arrives in the order of answer determined in step S36 without changing the call registration (S39).
According to embodiment 3 described above, in the elevator equipped with the smart door, when an incomplete user cannot be loaded in a state where the car is crowded, the elevator hall call is automatically registered in the control device of the elevator which can respond quickly to the elevator car or any of the other elevators in the building, and thus, the convenience of the user can be improved more accurately.
In embodiment 3 described above, when the hall call automatically generated by the call registration changing unit 57 is registered in another elevator control device 50P, the operation control unit 54 may cause the hall speaker 42 to output broadcast information notifying that a hall call to which another elevator is to respond is registered. When the registration of the automatically generated hall call is maintained by the call registration unit 52 without being changed to another elevator control device 50P, the operation control unit 54 may cause the hall speaker 42 to output broadcast information notifying that the hall call to which the elevator itself is to respond is registered. These pieces of information may be output as text information from a display device at the elevator hall.
EXAMPLE 4 embodiment
As described in the above-described embodiments 1 to 3, when an elevator hall call of a floor on which no user is loaded is automatically registered, there is a possibility that the number of users on the elevator hall corresponding to the period until the car arrives in response to the elevator hall call is further increased. In the following, in embodiment 4, a case will be described in which the number of users to be generated at each floor is predicted with reference to the past user generation situation at that floor, and the response order of the car is determined using the prediction result.
< construction of Elevator System of embodiment 4 >
The structure of an elevator system 1D according to embodiment 4 of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 8. The elevator system 1D of the present embodiment is similar to the elevator system 1A described in embodiment 1 except that the image analysis device 23D includes the analysis information storage unit 232 and the predicted person number calculation unit 233, and therefore detailed description of portions having the same functions is omitted.
In the present embodiment, each time the car 2 arrives at any floor, the image analysis processing unit 231D calculates the number of users in the area X who have the intention of riding the car 2, and stores the number of users in the analysis information storage unit 232 together with information on the day of the week, the time zone, and the floor corresponding to the time point. When the non-full occurrence detection information is generated by the image analysis processing unit 231D, the predicted number-of-persons calculating unit 233 calculates the number of detected non-full users, and calculates the predicted number of users occurring at the boarding location based on the calculated number of users and the corresponding number of users on the day of the week, time zone, and floor stored in the analysis information storage unit 232.
When the non-loading occurrence detection information is generated by the image analysis processing unit 231D of the image analysis device 23D, the automatic call generation unit 56D of the elevator control device 50D automatically generates an elevator boarding location call for the elevator boarding location, and registers the information of the predicted number of users calculated by the predicted number of users calculation unit 233 in the call registration unit 52.
The response order determination unit 53D determines the response order of the call registered in the call registration unit 52 so as to give priority to the elevator boarding pass call of the floor having the large number of users.
< operation of Elevator System of embodiment 4 >
The processing performed in the elevator system 1D when the car 2 arrives at any one of the floors and opens the door during the operation of the elevator system 1D of the present embodiment will be described with reference to the sequence diagram of fig. 9.
When the car door 24 of the car 2 is opened at any floor, the camera device 22 starts imaging the predetermined area X in the boarding area 4 of the floor where the car arrives. The imaging information generated by imaging is acquired by the image analysis device 23D, and the image analysis processing unit 231D executes image analysis processing (S41). Then, the number of users who are located in the area X and who intend to ride the car 2 is calculated, and the information on the day of the week, the time zone, and the floor corresponding to the time point is stored in the analysis information storage unit 232 (S42).
Here, when the occurrence of the non-loaded user is detected (yes in S43), and the non-loaded occurrence detection information is generated by the image analysis processing of the image analysis processing unit 231D, the predicted number of users calculating unit 233 calculates the number of detected non-loaded users. Then, the predicted number of users to be generated at the elevator is calculated based on the calculated number of users who have not been loaded and the corresponding day of the week, time zone, and number of users on the floor stored in the analysis information storage unit 232. For example, the calculated number of the non-loaded users is compared with the average value or the maximum value of the number of users in the corresponding day of the week and time zone stored in the analysis information storage unit 232, and the larger one of the values is calculated as the predicted number of users to be generated at the elevator. The information on the calculated predicted number of users is added to the generated incomplete-loading occurrence detection information, and is transmitted to the elevator control device 50D (S44).
In the elevator control device 50D, the analysis information acquisition unit 55 acquires the non-load occurrence detection information transmitted from the image analysis device 23D (S45). When the non-loaded occurrence detection information is acquired by the analysis information acquisition unit 55, the hall call in which the elevator with the non-loaded users is present is automatically generated by the automatic call generation unit 56D, and is registered in the call registration unit 52 together with the information on the predicted number of users who have not loaded the occurrence detection information (S46). The order of answering the call registered in the call registration unit 52, including the newly registered hall call, is determined by the order of answering determination unit 53D. When the response order is determined, a floor with a large predicted number of people added to the user who is called at the elevator boarding location is prioritized (S47). Then, the operation control unit 54 operates the devices in the elevator system 1D so that the car 2 arrives in the determined response order (S48).
According to embodiment 4 described above, in the elevator equipped with the smart door, when an incomplete user who cannot get on the elevator in a state where the car is crowded is generated and the boarding area call is automatically detected and registered, a user whose waiting time for waiting for the boarding area call is increased is predicted, and the convenience of the user can be further improved with high accuracy.
In the above-described embodiments 1 to 4, the boarding area 4 is provided with the human detection sensor for detecting the user who is located at the boarding area 4, and when the user leaves the boarding area 4 after the boarding area call is automatically registered and the user is no longer detected by the human detection sensor, the boarding area call can be cancelled from the call registration unit 52 by the automatic call generation units 56A to 56D.
Several embodiments of the present invention have been described, but these embodiments are presented as examples and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
