Then, the action to the elevator device 1 of present embodiment illustrates.In the present embodiment, In elevator machine information maintaining part 501, as No. A dynamo-electric ladder 10A, No. B dynamo-electric ladder 10B with And number machine information of No. C dynamo-electric ladder 10C, and maintain expression 3 and be same specification (staffing 20 people, normal speed 60/ point, typically by purposes) information.Further, at group management control apparatus In the elevator operation information management department 502 of 50, with predetermined time interval from each elevator 10A's～10C Control dish 13A～13C obtains the operational situation information of each elevator, and obtains by elevator machine information Number machine information of each elevator that maintaining part 501 keeps.It addition, set from building with predetermined time interval Standby use amount of power input unit 503 inputs and is used amount of power measuring device 40 to measure by building equipment Building in the use amount of power information of each floor of equipment machine 30 of each floor.

With reference to the flow chart of Fig. 2, to when achieving these information by group management control apparatus The process that in the building of 50, traffic demand forecast operational part 504 performs illustrates.

First, obtain from building equipment use amount of power measuring device 40 to building with predetermined time interval Build use amount of power information (S1) that thing equipment uses each floor of amount of power input unit 503 input.

Then, use amount of power information based on acquired each floor, the traffic of each floor of computing needs Want information of forecasting (S2).The traffic demand forecast information of each floor is utilized by the elevator of time per unit Number represents, by make the most by amount of power, then be predicted as elevator utilize number more to increase in the way of Carry out computing.

With reference to the flow chart of Fig. 3, to based on the traffic demand forecast information calculated by Distribution Unit The process that determination section 506 performs for boarding place calling registration illustrates.

First, when being called by boarding place by boarding place calling register button 20A or the operation of 20B When register 505 registers the boarding place calling of arbitrary floor, such as 4 layers and 6 layers ("Yes" of S11), In building, traffic demand forecast operational part 504 obtains the traffic demand forecast information of each floor, and And operational situation information and number machine information of each elevator is obtained from elevator operation information management department 502.Ginseng According to Fig. 4, acquired traffic demand forecast information and operational situation information are illustrated.

Here, in acquired traffic demand forecast information, it is shown that: due to 6 layers make electricity consumption Strength is fewer than other layers, so the traffic of 6 layers needs (boarding needs) to be " 2 people ", due to 4 layers Use amount of power than more than other layers, so the traffic of 4 layers needs (boarding needs) to be " 12 people ", Owing to the use amount of power of floor in addition is intermediate degree, so traffic needs for " 6 people ".

It addition, in acquired operational situation information, it is shown that: No. A dynamo-electric ladder 10A's is riding Current " 1 layer " place of car 11A travels upward, has 5 people in boarding in cage 11A. In addition it is shown that: place is upward for the cage 11B current " 3 floor " of No. B dynamo-electric ladder 10B Travel, have 15 people in cage 11B in boarding.In addition it is shown that: No. C dynamo-electric ladder 10C Current the most " 2 layers " place of cage 11C travel upward, have 10 people in cage 11C In boarding.

Then, based on these acquired information, registered boarding place call operation will be coped with The traffic of layer needs and arrives the elevator of time of this boarding place call operation layer short cage certainly It is set to the Distribution Unit (S12) responding the calling of this boarding place.

Such as, for the boarding place register call of 4 layers, need to be " 12 people " due to the traffic of 4 layers, The number of people boarding of B machine is 15 people, and the number of people boarding of C machine is 10 people, if so distribution B Machine or C machine, then in car, number can exceed 20 people of staffing.Therefore, although by 4 layers Predict the length time of advent (away from the distance of 4 floor) but cope with the A machine decision that boarding needs For Distribution Unit.It addition, for the boarding place register call of 6 layers, due to all numbers of A～C machine The boarding that machine can be tackled from 6 layers needs " 2 people ", so prediction is arrived shortest time (away from 6 The distance of floor is short) No. B dynamo-electric ladder 10B be determined as Distribution Unit.

Then, from elevator controlling instruction output unit 507 to the dynamo-electric ladder of be decided to be Distribution Unit No. A The control dish 13A output of 10A instructs to the response of the boarding place calling of 4 layers, it addition, to B machine The control dish 13B output of elevator 10B is to response instruction (S13) of the boarding place calling of 6 layers.? Achieve in each control dish 13A and 13B of response instruction, based on acquired instruction, pass through elevator Run control portion 133A and 133B and control the action of elevator, make cage 11A move to 4 Layer, makes cage 11B move to 6 layers.

Return Fig. 2, in step s3, after the traffic calculating each floor needs, Stall in office In the case of using amount of power to there occurs significantly change in Ceng, such as, using amount of power at 4 layers drastically Reduce, sharply increase at 5 layers in the case of ("Yes" of S3), use amount of power based on this layer Variable quantity carrys out the traffic demand forecast information (S4) of each floor of computing.With reference to the flow chart of Fig. 3, right Based on the traffic demand forecast information so calculated by Distribution Unit determination section 506 for boarding place The process that calling registration performs illustrates.

First, when by boarding place calling register 505 floor in office, such as registering at 4 layers and take advantage of At Ti during calling ("Yes" of S11), in building, traffic demand forecast operational part 504 obtains respectively The traffic demand forecast information of floor, and obtain each elevator from elevator operation information management department 502 Operational situation information and number machine information.With reference to Fig. 5, to acquired traffic demand forecast information and fortune Turn condition information to illustrate.

It addition, in acquired operational situation information, it is shown that: No. A dynamo-electric ladder 10A's is riding Car 11A currently will set out downwards at " 7 layers " place, has 5 people in boarding in cage 11A. In addition it is shown that: the cage 11C of No. B dynamo-electric ladder 10B and No. C dynamo-electric ladder 10C is current Be in " 1 layer ", in cage 11B and 11C, there is no the people of boarding, be in directionless standby in.

Then, based on these acquired information, dividing of the boarding place register call of decision response 4 layers The number of joining machine (S12).

Such as, for the boarding place register call of 4 layers, it is judged that for only by No. A dynamo-electric ladder 10A～C 1 boarding needs that cannot tackle 4 floor in number dynamo-electric ladder 10C, and 2 elevators are determined as Distribution Unit.As the combination of 2 of distribution, have A machine and B machine, A machine and C machine, Or B machine and these the 3 kinds selections of C machine.It addition, about the cage away from 4 layers traveling away from From, No. A dynamo-electric ladder 10A, No. B dynamo-electric ladder 10B, No. C dynamo-electric ladder 10C are identical.? This, it is believed that: owing to A machine can need many 5 layers by fall ladder before arriving 4 layers, so May register, at A machine, the car call being of five storeys, and A machine is 5 layers of stopping, to 4 layers Prediction time delay of arrival.Then, by dynamo-electric to No. B dynamo-electric ladder 10B and No. C ladder 10C these 2 Elevator is determined as the Distribution Unit for the calling registration of this boarding place of 4 layers.

Then, from elevator controlling instruction output unit 507 to the dynamo-electric ladder of be decided to be Distribution Unit No. B The boarding of control dish 13C output response 4 floor of the control dish 13B of 10B and No. C dynamo-electric ladder 10C The instruction (S13) of place's calling.In each control dish 13B, the 13C achieving response instruction, based on Acquired instruction, the action controlling elevator by elevator motion control portion 133B, 133C, make Cage 11B and 11C moves to 4 layers.

Return Fig. 2, use amount of power significantly change and based on the traffic needs according to electric power variation amount Information of forecasting carried out control after (S4), use amount of power change diminish ("No" of S3), From last time use amount of power significantly change have passed through the scheduled time more than time ("Yes" of S5), it is determined that For using amount of power stable, return step S2 and transport according to the use amount of power of each floor as usual New traffic demand forecast information.It addition, from last time use amount of power significantly change not warp When spending the scheduled time ("No" of S5), return step S3, based on the friendship calculated in step s 4 Logical need information of forecasting to control the operating of each elevator, until through the scheduled time.

According to the 1st above embodiment, by use electric power based on each floor in building The variable quantity of amount or use amount of power predicts the traffic needs of each floor, and carries out group based on this Management controls, it is possible to the machines such as camera are newly set and with low cost to carry out the elevator that transfer efficiency is high Control.

" the 2nd embodiment "

In the 2nd embodiment of the present invention, following group management control apparatus is illustrated, should The merit that group management control apparatus is had except the group management control apparatus of explanation in the 1st embodiment Outside energy, also there is use amount of power based on each floor in building or use amount of power Variable quantity sets the function of standby layer when elevator becomes directionless holding state.

With reference to Fig. 6, the knot to the elevator device 2 of the group management control apparatus that make use of present embodiment Structure illustrates.

The elevator device 2 of present embodiment sets except having standby layer in group management control apparatus 50 Outside portion 508, as with the structure of the elevator device 1 of the 1st embodiment being, therefore save somewhat There is the detailed description of the part of identical function.

Standby layer configuration part 508 is based on each elevator sent out from elevator operation information management department 502 Operational situation information and number machine information and by traffic demand forecast operational part 504 computing in building The traffic demand forecast information gone out, is set at least 1 passenger of cage 11A～11C from finishing Become standby layer during directionless holding state.

Elevator controlling instruction output unit 507 also is used for making riding sedan-chair to the output of the control dish of corresponding elevator Railway carriage or compartment moves to the standby layer by standby layer configuration part 508 new settings standby standby layer alteration command.

Then, the action to the elevator device 2 of present embodiment illustrates.In the present embodiment, In standby layer configuration part 508, as the default setting of standby layer, maintain passenger from finish and become Number machine of directionless holding state moves to 1 floor, 4 floor, 7 floor standby information successively.The most just It is to say, as the relative importance value of standby layer, is set to 1 layer, 4 layers, 7 layers of shape the most from high to low State.

With reference to the flow chart of Fig. 7, to when so setting standby layer, manage based on group Such as the step of the 1st embodiment in traffic demand forecast operational part 504 in the building of control device 50 Traffic demand forecast information that S2 calculates according to the use amount of power of each floor like that and by standby layer Process when configuration part 508 sets standby layer illustrates.

First, when having calculated the new traffic demand forecast information of each floor ("Yes" of S21), In building, traffic demand forecast operational part 504 obtains this traffic demand forecast information, and from electricity Ladder operation information management department 502 obtains operational situation information and number machine information of each elevator.With reference to Fig. 8, Acquired traffic demand forecast information and operational situation information are illustrated.

Here, in acquired transport information, it is shown that: owing to the use amount of power of 7 layers are than it His layer is few, thus 7 layers traffic need (boarding needs) be " 2 people ", due to 5 layers make electricity consumption Strength is than more than other layers, so the traffic of 5 layers needs (boarding needs) to be " 12 people ", due to except this The use amount of power of floor in addition is intermediate degree, so traffic needs for " 6 people ".

It addition, in acquired operational situation information, it is shown that: 3 equal passengers are in from finishing Directionless holding state, the cage 11A of No. A dynamo-electric ladder 10A is standby at 7 floor, B electromechanics The cage 11B of ladder 10B is standby at 4 layers, and the cage 11C of No. C dynamo-electric ladder 10C is 1 Layer is standby.

Then, based on these acquired information, new standby layer (S22) is determined.Such as, due to The traffic of 7 layers needs little, so getting rid of 7 floor from standby floor and making at the standby number machine of 7 floor to other Floor moves, owing to the traffic of 5 layers need big, so 5 layers are set to the highest standby of relative importance value Layer.

By so setting standby layer, the relative importance value of standby layer be followed successively by from high to low 5 layers, 1 layer, 4 Layer, as shown in Figure 8, from elevator controlling instruction output unit 507 to the control dish of No. A dynamo-electric ladder 10A 13A output is for making cage 11A move to 5 layers and standby standby layer alteration command from 7 layers (S23).In the control dish 13A achieving standby layer alteration command, based on acquired instruction, Controlled the action of elevator by elevator motion control portion 133A, make cage 11A from 7 layers of shifting Move 5 layers and become holding state.It addition, the cage 11B of No. B dynamo-electric ladder 10B and No. C The cage 11C of dynamo-electric ladder 10C continues respectively at 4 layers, the holding state of 1 layer.

As other examples, along the flow chart of Fig. 7, to step S4 such as the 1st embodiment Based on use amount of power to there occurs the electric power variation amount of the floor significantly changed and by standby layer configuration part Process during the 508 standby layer of setting illustrates.

First, when having calculated the new traffic demand forecast information of each floor ("Yes" of S21), In building, traffic demand forecast operational part 504 obtains this traffic demand forecast information, and from electricity Ladder operation information management department 502 obtains operational situation information and number machine information of each elevator.With reference to Fig. 9, Acquired traffic demand forecast information and operational situation information are illustrated.

Here, in acquired traffic demand forecast information, it is shown that: due to 3 layers make electricity consumption Strength drastically reduces and the personnel in the building that 3 floor exit that are predicted as sharply increase, so the traffic of 3 layers Need (boarding needs) to increase to " 30 people ", predict owing to the use amount of power of 5 layers sharply increase For hereafter going to the user of 5 layers to sharply increase, so the traffic of 5 layers needs (fall ladder needs) to increase Add as " 30 people ".

Then, based on these acquired information, new standby layer (S22) is determined.Such as, boarding Needing the 3 layers of relative importance value as standby layer sharply increased the highest, standby number of units is set to 2. Further, since the fall ladder being predicted as 5 layers needs to sharply increase, so 1 layer as datum layer is set Being set to standby layer, strengthening the traffic to 5 layers needs.

By so setting standby layer, the relative importance value of standby layer is followed successively by 3 layers, 1 layer from high to low, Standby logarithm is 2 at 3 layers, is 1 at 1 layer, as it is shown in figure 9, defeated from elevator controlling instruction Go out portion 507 to export for making cage 11A from 7 to the control dish 13A of No. A dynamo-electric ladder 10A Layer moves to 3 layers and standby standby layer alteration command, to the control dish 13A of No. B dynamo-electric ladder 10B Output is for making cage 11B move to 3 layers and standby standby layer alteration command from 4 layers (S13).In the control dish 13A and control dish 13B achieving standby layer alteration command, based on Acquired instruction, is controlled by elevator motion control portion 133A and elevator motion control portion 133B The action of elevator, cage 11A moves to 3 layers and cage 11B from 4 layers of shifting from 7 layers Move 3 layers, become holding state.It addition, the cage 11C of No. C dynamo-electric ladder 10C continues The holding state of 1 layer.

According to the 2nd above embodiment, in addition to the control performed by the 1st embodiment, The use amount of power of each floor being additionally based upon in building or the variable quantity of use amount of power set Elevator becomes standby layer during directionless holding state such that it is able to carry out group's management in hgher efficiency Control.
