Description

Elevator control device and elevator

Technical Field

The invention relates to an elevator control device and an elevator.

Background

Conventionally, there is an elevator that performs evacuation operation for evacuating users inside a building to the outside of the building under guidance of an evacuation guidance member when a disaster such as a fire occurs in the building. In evacuation activities when a disaster occurs in a building, there is a possibility of secondary disasters such as panic of an evacuated person or injury due to the person pushing the evacuation route, and it is therefore desirable to provide appropriate guidance by an evacuation guidance person. When the elevator is used for evacuation, the evacuation guide adjusts the number of persons who take the elevator car and instructs the evacuation route, and therefore the burden on the evacuation guide is large. Therefore, in the evacuation target floor where evacuation activities are performed by the evacuation guidance member, there is a possibility that evacuation activities of the evacuation target floor are completed in a state where the evacuated persons remain. In particular, people who have difficulty in evacuation, such as disabled people and old people, may have difficulty in evacuation because of slow movement of the elevator hall of the evacuation elevator.

Some of the elevators performing the evacuation operation as described above are those capable of rescuing delayed evacuation persons from the evacuation completion floor where the evacuation guidance member completes the evacuation activity. The elevator apparatus described in patent document 1 includes: a key switch provided at a landing and capable of selectively operating either a reciprocating operation request mode in which a car is requested to reciprocate between a refuge floor and a rescue floor or an evacuation completion mode in which evacuation is completed during evacuation operation; a first notification unit provided in the car; and an elevator control device capable of switching between normal operation and evacuation operation, wherein when a key switch is operated when switching to the evacuation operation, the floor of a landing in which the reciprocating operation request mode is selected by the key switch is set as a rescue floor, the floor of a landing in which the evacuation completion mode is selected is set as an evacuation completion floor, and when a landing button provided at the landing of the evacuation completion floor is operated, the first notification means notifies the evacuation completion floor.

Further, the elevator control device described in patent document 1 determines whether or not a landing in which a landing button is operated is an evacuation-completed floor when it is detected that an arbitrary landing button in a building is operated. When the hall is an evacuation-completed floor, the reciprocating operation of the car is temporarily cancelled to rescue an evacuee who is still in the hall, and hall call registration is accepted.

Disclosure of Invention

The elevator control device described in patent document 1 determines whether or not a landing in which a landing button is operated is an evacuation-completed floor when it is detected that an arbitrary landing button in a building is operated. In this case, even if the rescue operation is being performed on a floor different from the evacuation-completed floor, the car rescue operation for the other floor is temporarily cancelled and the hall call registration is accepted in order to rescue the evacuee remaining on the evacuation-completed floor. Therefore, even in a situation where evacuation of the floor to be subjected to the rescue operation must be prioritized, there is an inconvenience that evacuation activity at the floor to be subjected to the current rescue operation is interrupted in order to rescue the evacuees at the evacuation-completed floor.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide an elevator capable of appropriately rescuing a floor where a person delayed from evacuation is present while maintaining evacuation activity of a floor in a current rescue operation when the person delayed from evacuation occurs in an evacuation-completed floor.

An elevator control device of the present invention includes: an operation detection unit that detects an operation of a landing operation device at a landing of an elevator provided on each floor in a building; and a control unit that performs an evacuation operation in which the car travels to the first floor and stops, and then travels to an evacuation floor, when the operation detection unit detects an evacuation operation start operation for a landing operation device provided at a landing on the first floor, wherein the elevator control device includes: an evacuation completion floor setting unit that sets evacuation completion of the first floor when the operation detection unit detects an evacuation operation completion operation for a landing operation device provided at a landing on the first floor; and an evacuation slow person determination section that determines whether or not there is an evacuation slow person in the first floor when evacuation of the first floor is completed by the evacuation completed floor setting section, and when the control section determines that there is an evacuation slow person in the first floor when the control section is causing the car to perform evacuation operation for a second floor different from the first floor, the control section causes the car to travel to the first floor after the operation detection section detects that the evacuation operation of the landing operating device for the second floor has been completed.

Further, an elevator of the present invention includes: a landing operating device provided in a landing of an elevator on each floor in a building; and an elevator control device including an operation detection unit that detects an operation to the landing operating device, and a control unit that performs an evacuation operation in which the car is caused to travel to the first floor and stopped, and then caused to travel to an evacuation floor, when the operation detection unit detects an evacuation operation start operation to the landing operating device provided at a landing on the first floor, wherein the elevator control device includes: an evacuation completion floor setting unit that sets evacuation completion of the first floor when the operation detection unit detects an evacuation operation completion operation for a landing operation device provided at a landing on the first floor; and an evacuation slow person determination section that determines whether or not there is an evacuation slow person in the first floor when evacuation of the first floor is completed by the evacuation completed floor setting section, and when the control section determines that there is an evacuation slow person in the first floor when the control section is causing the car to perform evacuation operation for a second floor different from the first floor, the control section causes the car to travel to the first floor after the operation detection section detects that the evacuation operation of the landing operating device for the second floor has been completed.

Effects of the invention

When the controller causes the elevator car to perform evacuation operation for a second floor different from the first floor, the controller causes the elevator car to travel to the first floor after the operation detector detects an evacuation operation end operation for the landing operating device on the second floor. Therefore, it is not necessary to interrupt the evacuation activity of the second floor in order to rescue the slow evacuation person on the first floor. Therefore, the following effects are achieved: when a person delayed from evacuation has occurred on the evacuation-completed floor, it is possible to appropriately rescue the person delayed from evacuation on the floor where the person is located while maintaining the evacuation activity of the floor in the current rescue operation.

Detailed Description

Embodiment mode 1

Fig. 1 is an overall configuration diagram of an elevator including an elevator control device according to the present embodiment. The elevator 100 includes a hoistway 1, a car 2, a landing 3, a counterweight 4, a rope 5, a hoisting machine 6, a diverting sheave 7, an elevator control device 10, a drive device (not shown), and a landing operating device 107. The elevator control device 10 issues a command for raising and lowering the car 2 in the hoistway 1. The elevator control device 10 controls the hoisting machine 6 to raise and lower or stop the car 2. The car 2 and the counterweight 4 are suspended by the rope 5 via the return sheave 7. By rotating the hoisting machine 6 around which the rope 5 is wound, the car 2 and the counterweight 4 are raised and lowered in the hoistway 1 in a bucket manner. The elevator 100 is, for example, an elevator generally used in a building, and performs a control operation for evacuating the users 8 in the building when a disaster occurs in the building. The elevator 100 is an evacuation elevator used for evacuation when a disaster occurs in a building, for example.

As shown in fig. 1, a hall 3 is provided on each of floors a to e. According to fig. 1, a floor c is shown as a disaster occurrence floor. The disaster occurrence floor is, for example, a floor where a fire has occurred. The disaster occurrence floor refers to a floor where leakage of toxic gas or the like occurs, for example.

In fig. 1, a floor e is shown as an evacuation target floor. The evacuation target floor is a floor to be evacuated to a later-described evacuation floor by the user 8 using the car 2 when a disaster occurs at a disaster occurrence floor (for example, the floor c). When a disaster occurs, the car 2 reciprocates between the evacuation floor, which will be described later, and the corresponding floor among the evacuation target floors. When evacuating from the evacuation target floor, the evacuation guidance member 9 stands by at the landing 3 of the evacuation target floor so as not to panic the user 8 who is to be evacuated, and the user 8 rides on the car 2 under the guidance of the evacuation guidance member 9.

According to fig. 1, floor a is a retreat floor. The evacuation floor is a floor at which the user 8 who takes the car 2 for evacuation goes out of the elevator and is evacuated to a safe place such as the outside of a building. At the evacuation floor, the evacuation guidance member 9 stands by so as not to panic the user 8 who has evacuated the elevator car 2 to the evacuation floor, and the user 8 is evacuated to the outside of the building under the guidance of the evacuation guidance member 9.

In fig. 1, floors b and d are shown as evacuation completed floors. The evacuation completion floor is a floor where evacuation of the user 8 has been completed. According to fig. 1, at floor b, user 8 has evacuated from the floor and the floor is empty. However, fig. 1 shows that refuge-delayed persons 88, which are users delayed in evacuation, remain on the floor d.

Landing operating devices 107(107a, 107b, 107c, 107d, 107e) are provided in the landings 3 of the floors a to e. As shown in fig. 1, the landing operating device 107 includes, for example, a 1 st operating device and a 2 nd operating device. The 1 st operating device is, for example, an evacuation switch 105(105a, 105b, 105c, 105d, 105 e).

The evacuation switch 105 is, for example, a key switch operated by the evacuation guide 9 to insert a key carried by the user and rotate the key. When a disaster such as a fire occurs in a building and evacuation is to be performed by the elevator 100, the evacuation switch 105 starts an evacuation operation of the car 2 between the floor on which the key is operated and the evacuation floor by operation of the key possessed by the evacuation guidance person 9 located at any of the floors to be evacuated. The evacuation operation is an operation in which the car 2 is reciprocated between the floor and the evacuation floor after the car 2 travels to the floor where the key operation is performed and stops. The switch 105 is, for example, a button provided separately from the 2 nd operation device. In this case, when a disaster such as a fire occurs in the building and evacuation is to be performed by the elevator 100, the evacuation switch 105 starts the evacuation operation of the car 2 between the corresponding floor and the evacuation floor by the push operation of the push button by the evacuation guidance person 9.

The 2 nd operation device is, for example, a hall call device 106(106a, 106b, 106c, 106d, 106 e). The hall call device 106 performs call registration for the car 2 by operation of the user 8 positioned at the hall 3 during normal operation of the elevator 100. On the other hand, when a disaster such as a fire occurs in the building and the user 8 intends to evacuate by the elevator 100, the landing call device 106 is configured to close the car 2 by a predetermined operation of a landing guide standing by in the landing 3 and to cause the car 2 to travel to the evacuation floor. An evacuation switch 105 and a hall call operation panel 106 as a hall operation device 107 are electrically connected to the elevator control device 10.

Notification devices 110(110a, 110b, 110c, 110d, 110e) are provided at landings 3 of the floors a to e. As shown in fig. 1, the notification device 110 includes, for example, an audible signal device and a visual signal device. The audible signaling device is, for example, a speaker 108(108a, 108b, 108c, 108d, 108 e). The visual signaling devices are, for example, display devices 109(109a, 109b, 109c, 109d, 109 e).

Fig. 2 is a functional configuration diagram of the elevator control device according to the present embodiment. As shown in fig. 2, the elevator control device 10 includes an operation detection unit 11, a control unit 12, a retreat floor setting unit 13, a notification control unit 14, and an evacuated person determination unit 15.

The operation detection unit 11 detects an operation of the layer station operation device 107. The operation detection unit 11 detects that the evacuation switch 105 is operated by the evacuation guide 9, for example. The operation detection section 11 detects, for example, that the floor call device 106 has been operated by the evacuation guide 9.

As shown in fig. 2, the hall call devices 106 are provided with, for example, an up call button and a down call button. The hall call device 106 may be provided with destination floor registration buttons (not shown) instead of the up call buttons and the down call buttons. When the car 2 is in a normal operation, a call in an upward direction with respect to the hall 3 is registered in the elevator control device 10 by operating an upward call button. When the car 2 is in a normal operation, a call in a downward direction with respect to the hall 3 is registered in the elevator control device 10 by operating a down call button.

The control unit 12 controls opening and closing of the doors of the car 2. The control unit 12 controls the up-and-down movement of the car 2. When the operation detection unit 11 detects an evacuation operation start operation of the landing operation device 107 provided at the landing 3 on the first floor, which is one of the evacuation target floors, the control unit 12 causes the car 2 to travel to the evacuation floor and stop. After that, evacuation operation is performed in which the car 2 is caused to travel to the first floor and stopped, and then the car 2 is caused to travel to the evacuation floor. After that, evacuation operation is performed in which the car 2 is reciprocated between the evacuation floor and the first floor. The evacuation operation start operation is an operation in which, for example, the evacuation guidance user 9 inserts a key carried by the person into a key switch as the evacuation switch 105 and rotates the key.

The control section 12 completes evacuation operation for the first floor by evacuation guidance member 9 performing evacuation operation completion operation for the landing operating device 107 provided at the landing 3 on the first floor. The evacuation operation completion operation is a predetermined operation different from the 1 st operation performed by the evacuation switch 105. For example, the evacuation guidance member 9 inserts a key carried by the person into a key switch as the evacuation switch 105 and rotates the key in a direction opposite to the 1 st operation.

The evacuation completion floor setting unit 13 sets that evacuation of the first floor has been completed when the operation detection unit 11 detects an evacuation operation completion operation of the hall operation device 107 provided at the hall 3 of the first floor. That is, the first floor is changed from the evacuation target floor to the evacuation completion floor.

The delayed-evacuation-person determination unit 15 determines whether or not there is a delayed evacuation person 88 on the first floor when evacuation of the first floor is completed by the evacuation-completed-floor setting unit 13. For example, the slow-to-evacuate person determination section 15 determines that there is a slow-to-evacuate person 88 by detecting a predetermined operation on the landing operating device 107 provided at the landing 3 on the first floor by the operation detection section 11. In this case, the person 88 who is delayed from evacuation performs a predetermined operation for the landing operating device 107 by himself or herself. The predetermined operation for the landing operating device 107 may be any operation. Preferably, the predetermined operation of the hall operating device 107 may be a simple operation such as pressing 1 up call button or down call button. When the predetermined operation on the hall operating device 107 is a complicated operation, it is difficult for the refuge valet 88 to perform the complicated operation on the hall operating device 107 in an emergency situation such as a disaster.

Next, consider a case where the control unit 12 causes the car 2 to perform evacuation operation for a second floor, which is one of evacuation target floors different from the first floor as an evacuation completion floor. In this case, when the slow refuge determiner 15 determines that the slow refuge 88 exists on the first floor, the controller 12 continues the refuge operation for the second floor. When evacuation of the second floor is completed, the evacuation guidance person 9 on the second floor performs an evacuation operation completion operation on the landing operating device 107 provided in the landing 3 on the second floor. When the operation detection section 11 detects the evacuation operation completion operation of the landing operating device 107 on the second floor, the control section 12 causes the car 2 to travel to the first floor.

After that, the control unit 12 stops the car 2 at the first floor. The refuge delayed person 88 rides on the stopped car 2. After that, the control unit 12 causes the car 2 to travel to the evacuation floor. The control unit 12 stops the car 2 at the evacuation floor and ends the evacuation operation for the second floor. After the car 2 stops at the evacuation floor, the users 8 riding on the car 2 and the delayed evacuation persons 88 evacuate to the landing 3 of the evacuation floor.

The notification control section 14 may be configured to notify the notification device 110 of the landing on the second floor of "the person 88 to be evacuated on the first floor" when the person 88 to be evacuated exists on the first floor as determined by the person-in-danger determination section 15 during evacuation operation for the second floor different from the first floor by the control section 12. The notification control section 14 may be configured to cause the notification device 110 of the landing 3 on the first floor to notify the content indicating the "waiting instruction" when the person under evacuation judgment section 15 judges that there is an person under evacuation 88 in the first floor when the control section 12 is performing evacuation operation for a second floor different from the first floor. For example, the notification control unit 14 may cause the notification device 110 to notify "wait on the spot until the evacuation guide 9 and the car 2 arrive". As described above, the notification device 110 is, for example, the speaker 108 as an acoustic signal device. As described above, the notification device 110 is, for example, the display device 109 as a visual signal device.

Further, when the evacuation completion floor setting unit 13 is not set to complete evacuation of the first floor, the delayed-evacuation-person determination unit 15 may not determine that the delayed evacuation person 88 exists on the first floor. The evacuation completion floor setting unit 13 is not set to complete evacuation of the first floor, and means that evacuation guidance is being performed by the evacuation guidance person 9 on the first floor, and it is considered that the delayed evacuation person 88 is unlikely to occur.

Next, the operation of the elevator control device 10 will be described. Fig. 3 is a flowchart showing the operation of the elevator control device according to the present embodiment. Further, as shown in fig. 1, a case will be described where a disaster occurs at floor c and the elevator 100 performs a controlled operation for evacuating the user 8. Further, as shown in fig. 1, a case will be described where floor d is a first floor, which is an evacuation completion floor where the person 88 delayed from evacuation exists, floor e is a second floor, which is a floor to be evacuated, and floor a is an evacuation floor. The hall operating device 107 is described as a device including the evacuation switch 105 and the hall call device 106.

First, when a disaster occurs in the building and the elevator 100 enters the controlled operation from the normal operation, the control unit 12 causes the car 2 to travel to the evacuation floor a and then causes the car 2 to stop at the evacuation floor a (S201). The process then proceeds to S202.

When there is a user 8 who needs evacuation on a floor e (second floor) as a floor to be evacuated, an evacuation guide 9 staying on the floor e performs an evacuation operation start operation with respect to an evacuation switch 105e provided at a landing 3 of the floor e (second floor). The operation detection unit 11 detects an evacuation operation start operation for the evacuation switch 105e (S202).

When the operation detection unit 11 detects an evacuation operation start operation for the evacuation switch 105e (yes in S202), the process proceeds to S203. When the operation detection unit 11 does not detect the evacuation operation start operation for the evacuation switch 105e (no in S202), it waits until the operation detection unit 11 detects the evacuation operation start operation for the evacuation switch 105 e.

Next, the control unit 12 causes the car 2 to travel from the evacuation floor a to the floor e (second floor). After that, the control unit 12 causes the car to stop at the floor e (second floor) with the door open (S203). Then, the process proceeds to S204.

Next, the control unit 12 performs the reciprocating operation from the floor e (second floor) as the evacuation target floor to the floor a as the evacuation floor until the evacuation of the user 8 present on the floor e (second floor) is completed (S204). Subsequently, the process proceeds to S205.

Next, during the reciprocating operation in S204, the operation detection section 11 detects whether or not a predetermined operation has been performed on the hall call device 106d provided on the floor d (first floor) which is the evacuation completion floor (S205).

When detecting that a predetermined operation has been performed with respect to the hall call device 106d provided on the floor d (first floor) that is the evacuation-completed floor (yes at S205), the operation detection unit 11 proceeds to the process at S206. When the operation detection unit 11 does not detect that a predetermined operation has been performed with respect to the hall call device 106d provided on the floor d (first floor) that is the evacuation-completed floor (no in S205), the process of S204 is repeated.

Next, the refuge slow person determination section 15 determines whether or not the floor on which the predetermined operation has been performed with respect to the hall call device 106d has been set as the refuge-completed floor by the refuge-completed floor setting section 13 (S206).

The refuge-handicapped person determination section 15 determines whether or not the floor on which the predetermined operation has been performed with respect to the hall call device 106d has been set as the refuge-completed floor by the refuge-completed floor setting section 13 (S206).

On the other hand, in the process at S206, when the floor on which the predetermined operation has been performed with respect to the hall call device 106d has been set as the evacuation-completed floor by the evacuation-completed floor setting unit 13 (yes at S206), the routine proceeds to a process at S207.

Next, the notification control unit 14 notifies the notification device 110 of the hall 3 of the floor e (second floor) that "the person under evacuation 88 remains on the floor d (first floor) (S207). After that, the process proceeds to S208.

Next, the notification control section 14 notifies the notification device 110 at the landing 3 on the floor d (the first floor) of "please wait on the spot until the evacuation guide 9 and the car 2 arrive" (S208). Thereafter, the process proceeds to S210.

Next, in the same manner as the processing at S204, the control unit 12 performs the reciprocating operation from the floor e (second floor) as the evacuation target floor to the floor a as the evacuation floor until the evacuation of the user 8 present at the floor e (second floor) is completed (S210). Then, the process proceeds to S211.

Next, the operation detection unit 11 detects whether or not an evacuation operation completion operation for the evacuation switch 105e has been performed (S211). When the operation detection unit 11 does not detect that the evacuation operation completion operation has been performed with respect to the evacuation switch 105e (no in S211), the reciprocating operation in S210 is continued.

When the operation detection unit 11 detects that the evacuation operation completion operation has been performed with respect to the evacuation switch 105e (yes at S211), the process proceeds to S212.

Next, the control unit 12 causes the car 2 to travel to the floor d (first floor). After that, the control unit 12 stops the car 2 at the floor d (S212). Then, the process proceeds to S213.

Next, the refuge person 88 who is located at the floor d (the first floor) rides on the car 2. After that, the control unit 12 causes the car 2 to travel to the evacuation floor (S213). Then, the process proceeds to S214.

Next, the control unit 12 stops the car 2 at the evacuation floor (S214), and ends the evacuation operation for the floor e. After the car 2 stops at the evacuation floor, the users 8 riding on the car 2 and the delayed evacuation persons 88 evacuate to the landing 3 of the evacuation floor.

On the other hand, in the process at S206, when the floor on which the predetermined operation has been performed with respect to the hall call device 106d is not set as the evacuation-completed floor by the evacuation-completed floor setting unit 13 (no at S206), the routine proceeds to a process at S213.

Next, the operation detection unit 11 detects whether or not an evacuation operation completion operation for the evacuation switch 105e has been performed (S213). When the operation detection unit 11 does not detect that the evacuation operation completion operation has been performed with respect to the evacuation switch 105e (no in S213), the reciprocating operation in S204 is continued. When the operation detection unit 11 detects that the evacuation operation completion operation for the evacuation switch 105e has been performed (yes in S213), the process proceeds to S214 described above, and the control unit 12 ends the evacuation operation for the floor e (second floor) of the car 2.

Next, the operation and effects of the present embodiment will be described.

As described above, in the elevator control device 10 according to the present embodiment, when the controller 12 determines that the person 88 to be evacuated is present on the first floor by the person-under-evacuation determiner 15 when the controller 12 is causing the car 2 to perform evacuation operation for the second floor different from the first floor, the controller 12 causes the car to travel to the first floor after the operation detector 11 detects the end operation of the landing operating device 107 for the second floor. After that, the control unit 12 causes the car 2 to travel to the evacuation floor. After that, the control unit 12 stops the car 2 at the evacuation floor, and ends the evacuation operation for the second floor. After the car 2 stops at the evacuation floor, the users 8 riding on the car 2 and the delayed evacuation persons 88 evacuate to the landing 3 of the evacuation floor.

Therefore, there is no need to interrupt the evacuation activity of the second floor in order to rescue the refuge belonged person 88 of the first floor. Therefore, the following effects are achieved: when the delayed refuge persons 88 occur, it is possible to appropriately rescue the delayed refuge persons 88 on the floor where the delayed refuge persons 88 are located while maintaining the refuge activity of the other refuge-subject floor.

In addition, the slow-refuge person determination unit 15 of the elevator control device 10 according to the present embodiment does not determine that there is a slow refuge person 88 on the first floor when the refuge-completed floor setting unit 13 has not set the first floor to be refuged. The evacuation completion floor setting unit 13 does not set the evacuation completion of the first floor, and means that the first floor is not likely to have the slow evacuation persons 88 before or during evacuation guidance by the evacuation guidance member 9. Therefore, if the evacuation completion floor setting unit 13 determines that the person 88 delayed from evacuation is present on the first floor even though evacuation of the first floor is not set, the control unit 12 makes the car 2 travel to the first floor to save the person 88 delayed from evacuation, which is not useful. Further, there is a possibility that evacuation activities by the evacuation instructor 9 on the current second floor and evacuation activities by the evacuation instructor 9 on the first floor, which are scheduled in the future, will be hindered.

Therefore, the refuge-delayed-person determination unit 15 does not determine that the refuge delayed-person 88 is present on the first floor when the refuge-completed-floor setting unit 13 is not set to the refuge completion of the first floor, and thereby achieves a further effect of preventing the car 2 from traveling wastefully to the first floor. Further, there is an effect of preventing the evacuation activity for the second floor by the evacuation guidance person 9 at present and the evacuation activity for the first floor by the evacuation guidance person 9 scheduled in the future from being hindered.

Further, the notification control unit 14 of the elevator control device 10 according to the present embodiment causes the notification device 110 at the landing on the second floor to notify that "the person 88 left behind in the first floor" is left "when the person 88 left behind in the first floor is determined to be present by the person-delayed-evacuation determination unit 15 when the control unit 12 is performing evacuation operation for the second floor different from the first floor. As a result, the evacuation guidance member 9 currently performing evacuation activities on the second floor can grasp in advance that the delayed evacuation persons 88 are present on the first floor, and therefore, a further advantage is obtained in that the delayed evacuation persons 88 on the first floor can be appropriately rescued and evacuation guidance by the evacuation guidance member 9.

In addition, when the slow-evacuee determination section 15 determines that the slow-evacuee 88 is present on the first floor while the control section 12 is performing the evacuation operation for the second floor different from the first floor, the notification control section 14 of the elevator control device 10 in the present embodiment notifies the notification device 110 at the landing on the first floor of the content indicating the "waiting instruction". For example, the notification control unit 14 causes the notification device 110 to notify "please wait on the spot until the evacuation guide 9 and the car 2 arrive". As a result, since the slow evacuees 88 can be prevented from moving freely in the first floor, the evacuation guidance member 9, which has reached the first floor by the car 2, can smoothly rescue and provide evacuation guidance for the slow evacuees 88.

Further, by notifying the notification device 110 at the landing on the first floor of the content indicating the "waiting instruction", there is a further effect that the feeling of uneasiness of the slow refuge persons 88 who stay on the first floor can be reduced.

In the present embodiment, the slow-to-evacuate-person determination section 15 determines that there is a slow-to-evacuate person 88 by the operation detection section 11 detecting a predetermined operation on the landing operating device 107 provided in the landing 3 on the first floor. However, the person on the first floor may be detected by other means, and it may be determined that there is an evacuation victim 88 on the first floor.

Fig. 4 is another example of a functional configuration diagram of the elevator control device according to the present embodiment. As shown in fig. 4, a detector 111 may be provided on each floor. The elevator control device 10 may also include a human detection unit 16. The person detection unit 16 detects a person on the first floor based on the measurement result of the detector provided on the first floor. The delayed refuge determination unit 15 may determine that there is a delayed refuge 88 on the first floor based on the detection result of the human detection unit 16.

The detector 111 is not limited to the landing 3. As a result, even when the slow evacuees 88 are difficult to go to the landing 3 due to injury or the like, or when the first floor has a passage that is difficult to go to the landing 3 due to damage from a disaster, the effect of enabling the slow evacuees 88 to be evacuated by the car 2 can be obtained. In this case, the evacuation guidance member 9 riding on the car 2 may guide the delayed evacuation person 88 to the landing 3 for rescue.

The detector 111 is, for example, a sensor such as a thermal sensor or a photosensor. In this case, the person detection unit 16 detects that a person is present on the first floor from the measurement result of the sensor provided on the first floor. The delayed refuge determination unit 15 determines that there is a delayed refuge 88 on the first floor based on the detection result of the human detection unit 16. As a result, even when the slow refuge 88 is injured or the like and the operation of the landing operating device 107 is difficult, the effect of enabling the slow refuge 88 to be refunded by the car 2 is obtained.

In addition, the detector 111 is a microphone, for example. In this case, the person detection unit 16 detects that a person is present on the first floor from the sound collection result of the microphone provided on the first floor. The delayed refuge determination unit 15 determines that there is a delayed refuge 88 on the first floor based on the detection result of the human detection unit 16. As a result, even when the person 88 delayed from evacuation is injured or the like and operation of the landing operating device 107 is difficult, the person 88 delayed from evacuation can generate a sound to evacuate by the car 2. The sound may be a predetermined sentence (for example, "rescue") or may be a sound having no meaning such as crying.

The detector 111 is an imaging device such as a monitoring camera, for example. In this case, the person detection unit 16 detects that a person is present on the first floor by analyzing an image captured by an imaging device provided on the first floor. The delayed refuge person determination unit 15 determines that the delayed refuge person 88 exists on the first floor based on the detection result of the person detection unit 16. As a result, even when the slow refuge 88 is injured or the like and the operation of the landing operating device 107 is difficult, the effect of enabling the slow refuge 88 to be refunded by the car 2 is obtained. In addition, the following effects are also achieved: the accuracy of determining whether or not there is an refuge-delayed person 88 is improved by analyzing the image.

Next, an example of the elevator control device 10 will be described with reference to fig. 5. Fig. 5 is a hardware configuration diagram of an elevator control device according to embodiment 1.

Each function of the elevator control apparatus 10 can be realized by a processing circuit. For example, the processing circuitry is provided with at least one processor 1001 and at least one memory 1002. For example, the processing circuitry is provided with at least one dedicated hardware 2001.

When the processing circuit includes at least one processor 1001 and at least one memory 1002, each function of the elevator control device 10 is realized by software, firmware, or a combination of software and firmware. At least one of the software and the firmware is described as a program. At least one of software and firmware is stored in the at least one memory 1002. The at least one processor 1001 realizes each function of the elevator control apparatus 10 by reading out and executing a program stored in the at least one memory 1002. The at least one processor 1002 may also be referred to as a central processing unit, computing unit, microprocessor, microcomputer, or DSP. For example, the at least one Memory 1002 may be 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 CD (compact Disk), a mini Disk (mini disc), a DVD (Digital Versatile Disk), or the like.

In the case where the processing Circuit includes at least one dedicated hardware 2001, the processing Circuit is realized by, for example, a single Circuit, a composite Circuit, a programmed processor, a parallel programmed processor, an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array), or a combination thereof. For example, each function of the elevator control apparatus 10 is realized by a processing circuit. For example, the functions of the elevator control apparatus 10 are realized by a processing circuit in a lump.

The functions of the elevator control apparatus 10 may be implemented partially by dedicated hardware 2001, and the other parts may be implemented by software or firmware. For example, the functions of the control unit 12 may be realized by a processing circuit as the dedicated hardware 2001, and the functions other than the control unit 12 may be realized by the at least one processor 1001 reading out and executing a program stored in the at least one memory 1002.

In this way, the processing circuit realizes each function of the elevator control apparatus 10 by hardware 2001, software, firmware, or a combination thereof.

The present invention is not limited to embodiment 1. Some of them may be appropriately modified or omitted within the scope of the present invention.
