Detailed Description
The group control system of an elevator will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In the drawings, the same or corresponding portions are denoted by the same reference numerals. Duplicate descriptions are appropriately simplified or omitted.
Embodiment 1.
Fig. 1 is an example of a schematic diagram of a destination floor registration device in embodiment 1.
The destination floor registration device 1 is installed in, for example, a landing where a plurality of elevators can be loaded and unloaded. The destination floor registration device 1 may be installed on all floors where the car of an elevator can stop, for example. The destination floor registration device 1 can also be provided, for example, only on one or more specific floors.
As shown in fig. 1, the destination floor registration device 1 includes an operation unit 2 and a display unit 3. The operation unit 2 is, for example, a button or a touch panel. The display unit 3 is, for example, a liquid crystal display, a touch panel, or the like. The destination floor registration device 1 may have a speaker or the like, not shown, for example.
The operation unit 2 shown in fig. 1 has a plurality of buttons. The respective buttons are provided, for example, corresponding to respective floors at which the car of the elevator can stop. The user of the elevator presses e.g. a button corresponding to the floor desired to go. In other words, the operation unit 2 receives an input operation of a destination floor by a user.
The display unit 3 is provided at a position to enter the field of view of the user who is performing an input operation on the operation unit 2. The display unit 3 is provided on the same surface as the operation unit 2 on the casing of the destination floor registration device 1, for example. The display unit 3 is provided adjacent to the operation unit 2, for example, on the housing of the destination floor registration device 1.
Fig. 2 is a functional block diagram of the group control system according to embodiment 1.
As shown in fig. 2, the group control system includes a destination floor registration device 1 and a group control device 4. The group control device 4 is electrically connected to a plurality of destination floor registration devices 1, for example. The group control device 4 is electrically connected to, for example, a control device of each of a plurality of elevators not shown. The group control device 4 controls the operation of a plurality of elevators.
As shown in fig. 2, the group control device 4 includes a car assignment unit 5, a car state detection unit 6, a number of people storage unit 7, and a notification control unit 8.
When an input operation of a destination floor is performed on the destination floor registration device 1, the car assignment section 5 registers a destination call for moving from the installation floor of the destination floor registration device 1 to the destination floor. At this time, the car assignment section 5 counts the number of people going to the destination floor including the operator who is performing the input operation, based on the input operation of the destination floor. Hereinafter, the number of people counted by the car assignment section 5 in response to an input operation of a destination floor will also be referred to as "destination call number".
The car assignment section 5 counts the number of destination calls, for example, in accordance with a period in which the input operation of the same destination floor continues without interruption. For example, when the time for which the input operation is performed is less than 1 second, the car assignment section 5 counts the number of destination call persons as 1 person. For example, every time the input operation lasts 1 second, the car assignment section 5 adds 1 person to the number of destination calls. In this case, for example, when the button corresponding to the 5 th floor is operated for a period of 3 seconds or more and less than 4 seconds, the number of people going to the 5 th floor is counted as 4 people.
When the destination floor registration device 1 is operated to input a destination floor, the car assignment section 5 obtains a "car state" described later from the car state detection section 6. When the destination floor registration device 1 is operated to input a destination floor, the car assignment section 5 acquires "information on the number of people" described later from the number-of-people storage section 7. The car assignment section 5 determines an optimum assigned car from among the plurality of cars based on the "car state" of each car, the "information on the number of persons" of each car, and the number of destination calls. In addition, identifying an assigned car also includes changing the assigned car in response to a change in the number of destination calls.
The determination of the best-assigned car may be, for example, assigning a car to a call so that the waiting time of the entire plurality of elevators group-managed becomes the shortest. The determination of the best assigned car may also refer to assigning a car to a call in a manner that minimizes the energy consumption of the car's travel, for example. The determination of the best assigned car may be, for example, assigning a car to a call based on a predetermined index.
The car state detection unit 6 detects the "car state" of each car. The "car state" includes information such as a current position, a traveling direction, and an assigned destination call, for example. The current position of the car indicates the current position of the car in the up-down direction. The traveling direction of the car indicates that the car is moving up or down or stopped. The assigned destination call of a car indicates the boarding floor and the destination floor at which the car is determined as the destination call of the assigned car. The boarding floor is an installation floor of the destination floor registration device 1 on which the input operation of the destination floor is performed.
The number-of-persons storage unit 7 stores "number-of-persons information" of each car. The "information on the number of persons" in the car includes, for example, the number of persons currently boarding the car, the number of persons scheduled to board the car at each floor, and the number of persons scheduled to get off the car at each floor.
When an assigned car responding to a destination call is determined, the car assigning section 5 outputs destination call information. The destination call information includes information such as an elevator boarding floor, a destination floor, an assigned car, and the number of destination calls.
The car state detection unit 6 updates the "car state" based on the destination call information output from the car assignment unit 5. The car state detection unit 6 updates the contents of the assigned destination calls, for example, based on the destination call information.
The number-of-persons storage section 7 updates the "number-of-persons information" based on the destination call information output from the car assignment section 5. The number-of-persons storage unit 7 updates, for example, the number of persons who board the assigned car at each floor and the number of persons who get off the assigned car at each floor, based on the destination call information. When the car state detection unit 6 detects that the car has reached the destination floor, the number-of-persons storage unit 7 updates the number of persons currently riding on the car.
When the user performs an input operation of a destination floor to the destination floor registration device 1 and the assigned car is determined, the car assigning section 5 outputs information indicating the number of persons who have entered the elevator at the same time and information indicating the number of persons who have completed the elevator. The number of passengers is the number of other users who get into the assigned elevator car at the elevator taking floor of the user. The number of passengers is the number of destination calls counted in accordance with another input operation performed before the input operation. The number of persons taking the elevator may also include the number of persons going to other destination floors. The number of persons who have completed boarding refers to the number of persons who have already boarded the assigned car at the time when the user arrives at the boarding floor. The number of persons taking the elevator and the number of persons who have finished taking the elevator are calculated based on the information on the number of persons, for example.
The information indicating the number of boarding completion persons may include, for example, information indicating the number of persons who get off from the assigned car at the boarding floor among the number of boarding completion persons. The information indicating the number of boarding completion persons may include, for example, information indicating the number of persons who do not get off from the assigned car at the boarding floor among the number of boarding completion persons. The information indicating the number of boarding completion persons may include, for example, information indicating the number of persons who have not boarded the elevator at the present time but boarded the assigned car from the present time at a floor different from the boarding floor, among the number of boarding completion persons.
The notification control unit 8 causes the destination floor registration device 1 to notify information. The notification control unit 8 causes the display unit 3 to display visual information, for example. The notification control unit 8 may cause, for example, a speaker, not shown, of the destination floor registration device 1 to broadcast voice information.
When the destination floor registration device 1 is operated to input a destination floor, the notification control section 8 causes the display section 3 of the destination floor registration device 1 to display information based on the destination call information output from the car assignment section 5, information indicating the number of persons boarding at the same time, and information indicating the number of persons boarding completed.
When a destination floor input operation is performed on the destination floor registration device 1, the notification control unit 8 causes, for example, the display unit 3 of the destination floor registration device 1 to display information indicating the destination floor and the assigned car.
When a destination floor input operation is performed on the destination floor registration device 1, the notification control unit 8 causes, for example, the display unit 3 of the destination floor registration device 1 to display information indicating the number of scheduled boarding persons. The predetermined number of persons who take the elevator is the number of persons who will take the assigned car from now on the installation floor of the destination floor registration device 1. The predetermined number of persons who take the elevator is the number of persons obtained by adding the number of destination calls and the number of persons who take the elevator at the same time. The notification control section 8 may display information indicating the number of destination calls and information indicating the number of simultaneous boarding persons as information indicating the number of scheduled boarding persons, respectively, for example.
When a destination floor input operation is performed on the destination floor registration device 1, the notification control unit 8 causes, for example, the display unit 3 of the destination floor registration device 1 to display information indicating the number of persons who have completed boarding. The notification control unit 8 may display information indicating the number of boarding floors together with information indicating the number of boarding floors, for example. For example, the notification control unit 8 may display the number of persons who have entered the elevator and the number of persons who have not entered the elevator on the installation floor of the destination floor registration device 1 as information indicating the number of persons who have completed the elevator. For example, the notification control unit 8 may display the number of people currently boarding the assigned car and the number of people who are going to board the destination floor registration device 1 at a floor different from the installation floor as information indicating the number of people who have completed boarding.
The notification control unit 8 may be configured to play at least a partially overlapping content by voice broadcasting when information indicating a destination floor, an assigned car, the number of scheduled passengers, the number of passengers who have completed passengers, and the like is displayed, for example.
As described above, the number of destination calls changes in conjunction with the input operation to the destination floor performed by the destination floor registration device 1. When the number of destination calls changes, the number of predetermined elevator passengers changes. The assigned car can be changed when the number of persons scheduled to take the elevator is changed. When the assigned cage is changed, the number of persons taking the elevator and the number of persons who have finished taking the elevator simultaneously change. That is, the notification control unit 8 changes the information notified from the destination floor registration device 1 one by one in conjunction with the input operation of the destination floor performed to the destination floor registration device 1.
Fig. 3 is a flowchart showing an example of the operation of the group control device according to embodiment 1.
When detecting an input operation to a destination floor, the destination floor registration device 1 transmits information indicating the destination floor to the group control device 4 (step S101). The group control device 4 registers a destination call from the installation floor of the destination floor registration device 1 to the destination floor (step S102). The group control device 4 counts the number of destination call persons as 1 at this point in time (step S103). The 1 person refers to, for example, an operator who is performing an input operation.
The group control device 4 determines whether or not there is a car on which a predetermined number of persons can ride at the current time (step S104). The car on which the predetermined number of persons who take the elevator can be carried means, for example, a car on which the predetermined number of persons who take the elevator does not exceed the number of persons who take the elevator, even if the predetermined number of persons who do not get off the elevator at the installation floor of the destination floor registration device 1 is added to the number of persons who have taken the elevator.
When it is determined in step S104 that there are cars in which the predetermined number of passengers can ride, the group control device 4 assigns the best car to the destination call from among the cars in which the predetermined number of passengers can ride (step S105). After step S105, the group control device 4 causes the destination floor registration device 1 to display the destination floor, the assigned car name, the scheduled number of persons boarding the elevator, and the number of persons boarding completed (step S106).
The group control device 4 determines whether or not the input operation of the destination floor has continued for 1 second (step S107). In the second and subsequent processing of step S107, it is determined whether or not 1 second has continued from the previous determination time.
When it is determined in step S107 that the input operation to the destination floor has continued for 1 second, the group control device 4 adds 1 person to the number of destination calls (step S108). After step S108, the process of step S104 is performed. When the processing of step S104 and thereafter is repeated, the number of destination calls is added one by one in accordance with the time during which the input operation of the destination floor continues.
For example, when the operator operates the button corresponding to the destination floor for a period of 4 seconds or more and less than 5 seconds, a total of 5 persons, i.e., 1 person of the operator and 4 persons of the fellow, is counted as the number of destination calls. In this case, in step S105, the car on which the 5 persons and the number of persons who simultaneously take the elevator can be taken is assigned.
If it is determined in step S107 that the input operation of the destination floor does not continue for 1 second, the group control device 4 cancels the indication of the destination floor registration device 1 after a predetermined time (step S109).
When it is determined in step S104 that there is no car in which the predetermined number of persons can ride, the group control device 4 causes the destination floor registration device 1 to display, for example, the predetermined number of persons and a message indicating that there is no car in which all persons can ride (step S110). After step S110, the process of step S107 is performed.
In step S110, for example, a car that has the largest possible space among cars that cannot be fully loaded may be assigned. In step S110, for example, information for prompting a re-operation after a short time or the like may be displayed. In step S110, for example, a car that can be taken by a predetermined number of passengers after the destination call in response to another user currently taking the car is ended may be assigned.

Fig. 20 is another example of a schematic diagram of a destination floor registration device in embodiment 1. The destination floor registration device 1 shown in fig. 20 is the same as the destination floor registration device 1 shown in fig. 1 except for the operation part 2.
Fig. 20 shows a destination floor registration device 1 of the numeric keypad type. The operation portion 2 shown in fig. 20 has buttons corresponding to respective numerals of 0 to 9. The user of the elevator inputs a number of 1 digit or 2 digits or more indicating a destination floor using the operation unit 2 shown in fig. 20, for example. Even in this case, if the input operation of the last digit is understood as the input operation of the floor button, for example, the number of destination calls can be counted as described above. That is, the car assignment section 5 may count the number of destination calls in accordance with, for example, a period in which the input operation of the last digit continues without interruption.
In embodiment 1, the car assignment section 5 specifies an assigned car from a plurality of cars, for example, in accordance with an input operation of a destination floor to the destination floor registration device 1. For example, when a destination floor input operation is performed on the destination floor registration device 1, the notification control section 8 causes the destination floor registration device 1 to display information indicating the assigned car and the scheduled number of passengers on the installation floor of the destination floor registration device 1. For example, the notification control unit 8 increases the number of scheduled boarding persons displayed on the destination floor registration device 1 one by one in conjunction with an input operation to the destination floor performed by the destination floor registration device 1. Therefore, the user can be made aware that the operation of the destination floor registration device affects the counting of the number of people. As a result, it is possible to guide the input operation in which the number of people of the user can be accurately counted.
In embodiment 1, for example, the notification control unit 8 increases the number of scheduled boarding persons displayed on the destination floor registration device 1 one by one while the same destination floor input operation to the destination floor registration device 1 continues without interruption. Therefore, the number of users can be counted with a simple configuration without providing a dedicated button or the like for inputting the number of people in the destination floor registration device.
In embodiment 1, for example, when an input operation of a destination floor is performed on the destination floor registration device 1, the notification control section 8 causes the destination floor registration device 1 to display the number of destination calls based on the input operation and the number of passengers boarding the elevator simultaneously based on another input operation performed on the destination floor registration device 1 before the input operation as the predetermined number of passengers boarding the elevator. The notification control section 8 increases the number of destination calls displayed on the destination floor registration device 1 one by one in conjunction with the input operation. Therefore, the user can be made aware that the operation of the destination floor registration device affects the counting of the number of persons.
In embodiment 1, for example, when the destination floor registration device 1 is subjected to an input operation of a destination floor, the notification control section 8 causes the destination floor registration device 1 to display the number of persons going off at the floor and the number of persons not going off at the floor as the number of persons who have completed boarding when the assigned car reaches the installation floor of the destination floor registration device 1. Therefore, it is possible for users at the landing to recognize the congestion state of the assigned car.
In embodiment 1, for example, when the total of the number of persons who do not get off at the floor and the number of persons scheduled to take the elevator exceeds the number of persons who take the elevator of the assigned car when the assigned car reaches the installation floor of the destination floor registration device 1, the car assigning unit 5 changes the assigned car. Therefore, it is possible to prevent some users from failing to get on the car. Further, the user can be made aware that the operation of the destination floor registration device affects the counting of the number of persons.
In embodiment 1, for example, when the number of persons scheduled to ride in the destination floor registration device 1 is increased, the notification control unit 8 sets visual marks indicating the number of persons as animation. Therefore, it is possible to make a person intuitively understand that the operation of the destination floor registration device affects the counting of the number of persons.
In embodiment 1, the operation time of the operating portion 2 required to increase the count of the number of destination call persons by 1 person may be set to a time other than 1 second, for example. For example, a method may be employed in which the function of counting the number of destination calls by the operation time of the operation section 2 is disabled and the number of times the input operation of the destination floor is performed is counted as the number of destination calls.
In embodiment 1, the notification control unit 8 may be provided in the destination floor registration device 1, for example. Even in this case, the same operation as described above can be performed by transmitting destination call information, information indicating the number of persons boarding simultaneously, information indicating the number of persons boarding completed, and the like from the group control device 4 to the destination floor registration device 1.
Fig. 21 is a hardware configuration diagram of the group management device.
Each function of the car assignment section 5, the car state detection section 6, the number of people storage section 7, and the notification control section 8 in the group control device 4 is realized by a processing circuit. The processing circuitry may also be dedicated hardware 50. The processing circuit may also have a processor 51 and a memory 52. The processing circuit may be partly formed as dedicated hardware 50, and further include a processor 51 and a memory 52. Fig. 21 shows an example of a case where a part of the processing circuit is formed as dedicated hardware 50 and is provided with a processor 51 and a memory 52.
Where at least a portion of the processing circuitry is at least one dedicated hardware 50, the processing circuitry corresponds to, for example, a single circuit, a composite circuit, a programmed processor, a parallel programmed processor, an ASIC, an FPGA, or a combination thereof.
In the case where the processing circuit includes at least one processor 51 and at least one memory 52, the functions of the group control device 4 are implemented by software, firmware, or a combination of software and firmware. The software and firmware are described as programs and are stored in the memory 52. The processor 51 realizes the functions of the respective sections by reading out and executing the program stored in the memory 52. The processor 51 is also called a CPU (Central Processing Unit), a Central Processing Unit, a Processing device, an arithmetic device, a microprocessor, a microcomputer, or a DSP. The Memory 52 corresponds to a nonvolatile or volatile semiconductor Memory such as a RAM (Random Access Memory), a ROM (Read Only Memory), a flash Memory, an EPROM (Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory), an EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory), a magnetic Disk, a floppy Disk, an optical Disk, a CD (compact Disk), a mini Disk (mini Disk), a DVD (Digital Versatile Disk), and the like.
In this way, the processing circuit can implement each function of the group control device 4 by hardware, software, firmware, or a combination thereof. The functions of the destination floor registration device 1 are also realized by a processing circuit similar to the processing circuit shown in fig. 21.
