Detailed Description
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram showing an outline of an elevator system 1 according to embodiment 1. In the elevator system 1 illustrated in fig. 1, when a departure floor and a destination floor are input to the mobile terminal 3 before the user a arrives at the landing of the elevator 2, landing call information indicating the input departure floor and destination floor is transmitted to the control device 4 via the network 5 and registered. When landing call information is registered, the control device 4 controls the car of the elevator 2 based on the departure floor and the destination floor indicated by the registered landing call information.
For example, the elevator system 1 can perform so-called hands-free operation using the elevator 2 without operating an operation panel provided in the landing or the car by the user a. In the handsfree operation, the user a registers a call with the control device 4 using the mobile terminal 3, and the elevator system 1 detects an intention of the user a to call the elevator 2 (for example, the user a has approached a landing), thereby moving the car to the departure floor, and when the user a gets on the car, the destination floor is automatically set in the operation panel in the car. Thus, the user a can use the elevator 2 without operating the operation panel.
Fig. 2 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the portable terminal 3 and the control device 4. In fig. 2, the mobile terminal 3 includes a function executing unit 31, a function limiting unit 32, an input unit 33, a request determining unit 34, and an output unit 35. Fig. 2 also shows functional components of the mobile terminal 3 related to call registration of the elevator 2 and restrictions on call registration. The mobile terminal 3 includes a display, a speaker, and an input device (touch panel, operation buttons) in addition to the functional components shown in fig. 2.
In the mobile terminal 3, the function execution unit 31 registers hall call information with the control device 4. For example, if the registration of the hall call information received by the input unit 33 is not a restriction target, the function execution unit 31 transmits the hall call information to the control device 4 via the network 5 and registers the hall call information. In the following description, the process of registering landing call information is appropriately referred to as "call registration".
The function restriction unit 32 restricts call registration of the elevator 2 with respect to the control device 4. For example, when the call registration is performed by the function execution unit 31 to the control device 4, the function restriction unit 32 controls the function execution unit 31 so that additional call registration is not performed even if the landing call information is set next to the registration. The restriction of call registration is performed until a restriction time set in advance for the function restriction section 32 has elapsed.
The input unit 33 receives input information from the user a. For example, the input unit 33 outputs information input using an input device (touch panel, operation button, or the like) provided in the mobile terminal 3 to the function executing unit 31 and the request determining unit 34. The input unit 33 receives a request corresponding to notification information for prompting the user a to set a request while the call registration is limited by the function limiting unit 32. For example, the output unit 35 displays a notification screen in which a request for immediately executing call registration and a request for extending the time for limiting call registration can be selected, and the input unit 33 receives a request selected based on the notification screen.
The request determination unit 34 determines whether the request received by the input unit 33 during the time period when the call registration is limited by the function limiting unit 32 is a request to perform call registration or a request to extend the time period when the call registration is limited. For example, the request determination unit 34 determines whether the request selected by the user a based on the notification screen is a request to perform call registration or a request to extend the time for limiting call registration.
When the request determination unit 34 determines that the request selected by the user a is a request to perform call registration, it outputs the determination result to the function execution unit 31. The function execution unit 31 immediately registers the hall call information received by the input unit 33 in the control device 4 in response to a request indicated by the determination result. The function execution unit 31 also notifies the setting screen of the hall call using the output unit 35 in accordance with the request shown in the determination result, and immediately registers the hall call information set on the basis of the setting screen in the control device 4.
When the request determination unit 34 determines that the request selected by the user a is a request for extending the time for limiting call registration, it outputs the determination result to the function limiting unit 32. The function restriction unit 32 extends the restriction time of the current call registration by a predetermined time in accordance with the request indicated by the determination result.
The output unit 35 outputs information input from the function execution unit 31 or the input unit 33. For example, the output unit 35 causes a display provided in the mobile terminal 3 to display information or outputs voice information from a speaker. The output unit 35 outputs notification information prompting the user a to set a request while the call registration is restricted by the function restricting unit 32. The notification information is, for example, notification screen information that enables selection of a request to immediately perform call registration and a request to lengthen the time to limit call registration.
The control device 4 is a device that controls the operation of the elevator 2, and includes a communication unit 41 and a control processing unit 42. The communication unit 41 communicates with the mobile terminal 3 via the network 5, and transmits a control signal to the elevator 2. For example, a driving device provided in the elevator 2 moves the car to a destination floor indicated by a control signal.
The control processing unit 42 controls the operation of the car of the elevator 2. For example, when the hall call information is registered by the mobile terminal 3, the control processing unit 42 generates a control signal for moving the car to the departure floor and the destination floor indicated by the registered hall call information. The control signal generated by the control processing unit 42 is transmitted to the elevator 2 by the communication unit 41.
Fig. 3 is a flowchart showing the operation of the portable terminal 3.
First, the mobile terminal 3 is set in a state (initial state) in which no call of the elevator 2 is set (step ST 1). Next, the user a sets a call for the elevator 2 in the mobile terminal 3, and thereby the function execution unit 31 registers the set call with the control device 4 (step ST 2).
Next, the function restriction unit 32 starts additional call registration restriction (step ST 3). When the restriction of call registration is started, the function restriction unit 32 checks whether or not a preset restriction time has elapsed (step ST 4). When the restriction time has elapsed since the start of the restriction of call registration (step ST4; yes), the function restriction unit 32 notifies the function execution unit 31 that the elevator 2 is not used for the restriction time. Then, the function execution unit 31 cancels the call setting to be in the initial state, cancels the call registration for the control device 4, and returns to step ST1.
When the call registration is in the limit time (step ST4; no), the function limiting unit 32 notifies the output unit 35 that the call registration is limited. Thus, the output unit 35 notifies the user a of the setting request (step ST 5). Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram showing an example of the notification screen 30A displayed by the portable terminal 3. In the notification screen 30A shown in fig. 4, a selection button 30A2 and a selection button 30A3 are provided for confirming a message 30A1 using the elevator 2 and a request in response to the message 30A 1. The input unit 33 receives a request corresponding to the notification screen 30A.
The request determination unit 34 determines which of the "current immediate call" and the "time limit for call registration" is the request received by the input unit 33 (step ST 6). For example, when the user a selects the selection button 30A2 described as "current immediate call" using the touch panel, the input unit 33 receives the selection information. The request determination unit 34 determines that the request selected by the user A is a request for immediately performing call registration based on the information received by the input unit 33 (step ST6: immediate call now).
Upon receiving the determination result of the request determination unit 34, the function execution unit 31 immediately registers the call that has been set in the control device 4 (step ST 7). The function execution unit 31 may instruct the output unit 35 to display a call registration screen for registering a new call on the output unit 35. The input unit 33 outputs call information set on the basis of the call registration screen to the function execution unit 31. The function execution unit 31 registers a call set on the basis of the call registration screen in the control device 4.
When the request determination unit 34 determines that the request selected by the user a is a request for extending the time limit for call registration based on the information received by the input unit 33 (step ST6: extension limit), the request determination unit notifies the function restriction unit 32 of the determination result. For example, when the user a selects the selection button 30A3 described as "temporarily stopping the handsfree operation setting" using the touch panel, the input unit 33 receives the selection information. The request determination unit 34 determines that the request is a request for extending the time limit for call registration based on the selection information received by the input unit 33.
Upon receiving the determination result of the request determination unit 34, the function restriction unit 32 extends the restriction time for call registration by a predetermined time (step ST 8). Then, the function restriction section 32 determines whether restriction of call registration is to be released or a restriction time has elapsed (step ST 9). Here, when the restriction is not released and the restriction time has not elapsed (step ST9: no), the function restriction unit 32 returns to step ST9 and continues the restriction of call registration. When the restriction is released or the restriction time has elapsed (step ST9: YES), the flow returns to step ST1, and the above-described series of processes is repeated.
In fig. 3, although the case where the call of the elevator 2 is the handsfree operation is shown, the function of the elevator system 1 of embodiment 1 is also effective for a normal hall call. The normal hall call is an operation in which the mobile terminal 3 registers a call of the car set by the user a in the control device 4. The control device 4, which registers a normal hall call, moves the car to the departure floor when the user a arrives at the hall. Here, in a normal hall call, a destination floor may be set in the control device 4 by operating an operation panel of a hall or a car.
The hardware configuration for realizing the functions of the portable terminal 3 is as follows.
Fig. 5A is a block diagram showing a hardware configuration for realizing the functions of the portable terminal 3. Fig. 5B is a block diagram showing a hardware configuration of software executing the function of realizing the portable terminal 3. In fig. 5A and 5B, the input interface 100 is an interface that relays input information. The output interface 101 is an interface that relays notification information output to the display. The communication interface 102 is an interface for relaying information transmitted and received between the function execution unit 31 and the control device 4.
The functions of the function execution unit 31, the function restriction unit 32, the input unit 33, the request determination unit 34, and the output unit 35 included in the mobile terminal 3 are realized by a processing circuit. That is, the mobile terminal 3 includes a processing circuit for executing the processing of steps ST1 to ST9 shown in fig. 3. The processing circuit may be dedicated hardware, but may be a CPU (Central Processing Unit: central processing unit) that executes a program stored in a memory.
In the case where the processing circuit is the processing circuit 103 of dedicated hardware shown in FIG. 5A, the processing circuit 103 is, for example, a single circuit, a composite circuit, a programmed processor, a parallel programmed processor, an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit: application specific integrated circuit), an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array: field programmable gate array), or a combination thereof. The functions of the function execution unit 31, the function restriction unit 32, the input unit 33, the request determination unit 34, and the output unit 35 included in the mobile terminal 3 may be realized by different processing circuits, or the functions may be realized collectively by one processing circuit.
In the case where the processing circuit is the processor 104 shown in fig. 5B, the functions of the function execution unit 31, the function restriction unit 32, the input unit 33, the request determination unit 34, and the output unit 35 included in the mobile terminal 3 are realized by software, firmware, or a combination of software and firmware. The software or firmware is described as a program and stored in the memory 105.
The processor 104 reads and executes a program stored in the memory 105 to realize functions of the function executing section 31, the function limiting section 32, the input section 33, the request determining section 34, and the output section 35 included in the portable terminal 3. For example, the mobile terminal 3 includes a memory 105, and the memory 105 stores a program that, when executed by the processor 104, finally executes the processing shown in fig. 3 from step ST1 to step ST 9. These programs cause the computer to execute the steps or methods of the function execution section 31, the function restriction section 32, the input section 33, the request determination section 34, and the output section 35. The memory 105 may be a computer-readable storage medium storing a program for causing a computer to function as the function executing section 31, the function limiting section 32, the input section 33, the request determining section 34, and the output section 35.
The Memory 105 is a nonvolatile or volatile semiconductor Memory such as RAM (Random Access Memory: random access Memory), ROM (Read Only Memory), flash Memory, EPROM (Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory: erasable programmable Read Only Memory), EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory: electrically erasable programmable Read Only Memory), a magnetic disk, a floppy disk, an optical disk, a CD (compact disc), a mini disc (mini disc), a DVD (Digital Versatile Disk: digital versatile disc), or the like.
A part of functions of the function executing unit 31, the function limiting unit 32, the input unit 33, the request determining unit 34, and the output unit 35 included in the mobile terminal 3 may be realized by dedicated hardware, and the remaining part may be realized by software or firmware. For example, the function executing section 31, the function limiting section 32, the input section 33, and the request determining section 34 realize functions by the processing circuit 103 being dedicated hardware, and the output section 35 reads out and executes a program stored in the memory 105 by the processor 104 to realize functions. As such, the processing circuitry may implement the functions described above in hardware, software, firmware, or a combination thereof.
As described above, the elevator system 1 according to embodiment 1 determines whether a request received during a period in which call registration is restricted is a request to perform call registration or a request to extend the time for restricting call registration. When a request for performing call registration is received, call registration is performed immediately for the control device 4, and when a request for extending the time for limiting call registration is received, the time for limiting call registration is extended. Thus, even if additional call registration is restricted, it is possible to select between performing call registration and extending the restriction time of call registration according to the intention of the user a. In this way, the elevator system 1 can operate the elevator 2 in consideration of the intention of the user a to use the elevator 2.
Fig. 6 is a schematic diagram showing an outline of an elevator system 1A according to embodiment 2. The elevator system 1A shown in fig. 6 includes a mobile terminal 3A, a control device 4, and a transmitter 6. The transmitter 6 is disposed near the landing of the elevator 2 and periodically transmits a wireless signal (beacon). The mobile terminal 3A includes a function executing unit 31, a function limiting unit 32, an input unit 33, a request determining unit 34A, an output unit 35A, and a detecting unit 36. In fig. 6, the same components as those in fig. 1 are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof is omitted.
The request determination unit 34A determines whether the request received by the input unit 33 is a request for performing call registration or a request for extending the time for limiting call registration, based on the detection of the wireless signal by the detection unit 36. When the approach of the mobile terminal 3A to the elevator 2 is continuously detected for a predetermined time or longer while the call registration is restricted by the function restricting unit 32, the output unit 35A outputs notification information prompting the user a to select a request. The notification information is, for example, a notification screen 30A shown in fig. 4.
The detection unit 36 receives a wireless signal transmitted from the transmitter 6 provided near the landing of the elevator 2, and thereby detects the approach of the portable terminal 3A to the elevator 2. The detection unit 36 may detect the approach of the mobile terminal 3A to the elevator 2. For example, the approach of the mobile terminal 3A to the elevator 2 may be detected using position measurement information of the mobile terminal 3A, may be detected using a result obtained by image analysis of a moving image captured by the mobile terminal 3A, or may be detected using a human sensor.
Fig. 7 is a flowchart showing the operation (1) of the portable terminal 3A. The processing of steps ST1a to ST4a of fig. 7 is the same as the processing of steps ST1 to ST4 of fig. 3. Here, the timing of performing call registration by the function execution unit 31 is performed at the timing when the approach of the portable terminal 3A to the elevator 2 is detected by the detection unit 36. The function restriction unit 32 restricts additional call registration in association with call registration.
When the restriction time has elapsed since the start of the restriction of call registration (step ST4a: yes), the function restriction unit 32 notifies the function execution unit 31 that the elevator 2 is not used for the restriction time. Then, the function execution unit 31 cancels the call setting to be in the initial state, cancels the call registration for the control device 4, and returns to step ST1a.
When the call registration is in the limit time (step ST4a: no), the function limiting unit 32 notifies the output unit 35A that the call registration is limited. Next, the output unit 35A confirms whether or not the wireless signal transmitted from the transmitter 6 is detected by the detection unit 36 for a predetermined time or longer (step ST 5A). If the detection of the wireless signal by the detection unit 36 is not performed for a predetermined time (step ST5a: NO), the processing of step ST4a and step ST5a is repeated.
When the wireless signal is detected by the detecting unit 36 for a predetermined time or longer while the time is limited for call registration (step ST5A: yes), the output unit 35A notifies the user a of the setting request (step ST6 a). The output unit 35A displays, for example, the notification screen 30A shown in fig. 4. The input unit 33 receives a request corresponding to the notification screen 30A.
The request determination unit 34A determines which of the "current immediate call" and the "time limit for call registration" is the request received by the input unit 33 (step ST7 a). For example, when the user a selects the selection button 30A2 described as "current immediate call" using the touch panel, the input unit 33 receives selection information. The request determination unit 34A determines that the request selected by the user a is a request for immediately performing call registration based on the information received by the input unit 33 (step ST7a: current immediate call).
Upon receiving the determination result of the request determination unit 34A, the function execution unit 31 immediately registers the call that has been set in the control device 4 (step ST8 a). The function execution unit 31 may instruct the output unit 35A to display a call registration screen for registering a new call on the display. The input unit 33 outputs call information set on the basis of the call registration screen to the function execution unit 31. The function execution unit 31 registers a call set on the basis of the call registration screen in the control device 4.
When the request determination unit 34A determines that the request selected by the user a is a request for extending the time limit for call registration based on the information received by the input unit 33 (step ST7a: extension limit), the request determination unit notifies the function restriction unit 32 of the determination result. For example, when the user a selects the selection button 30A3 described as "temporarily stopping the handsfree operation setting" using the touch panel, the input unit 33 receives the selection information. The request determination unit 34A determines that the request is a request for extending the time limit for call registration based on the selection information received by the input unit 33.
Upon receiving the determination result of the request determination unit 34A, the function restriction unit 32 extends the restriction time for call registration by a predetermined time (step ST9 a). Then, the function restriction unit 32 determines whether restriction of call registration is to be released or a restriction time has elapsed (step ST10 a). Here, when the restriction is not released and the restriction time has not elapsed (step ST10a: no), the function restriction unit 32 returns to step ST10a and continues the restriction of call registration. When the restriction is released or the restriction time has elapsed (step ST10a: YES), a series of processes starting from step ST1a are repeated.
In addition, the release of the restriction cannot be judged only by the passage of the restriction time. For example, the function restriction unit 32 may cancel restriction of call registration when the detection unit 36 detects that the user a holding the mobile terminal 3A has been away from the landing of the elevator 2 for a predetermined time or longer. In addition, a setting button for canceling the restriction of call registration may be provided on the setting screen displayed on the mobile terminal 3A. Even when the user a operates the setting button while the call registration is restricted, the function restricting unit 32 releases the restriction of the call registration.
The case where the restriction of the call registration by the function restriction unit 32 is started at the time when the wireless signal from the transmitter 6 is detected by the detection unit 36 and the call registration is started by the function execution unit 31 has been described, but other times are also possible. For example, the function restriction unit 32 may start restricting additional call registration at a time when the call registration screen is displayed on the display of the mobile terminal 3A by the operation of the user a. The function restriction unit 32 may restrict additional call registration at the time when the user a rides on the car of the elevator 2 in which call registration has been performed.
Fig. 8 is a flowchart showing the operation (2) of the portable terminal 3A.
The output unit 35A confirms whether or not the wireless signal transmitted from the transmitter 6 is detected by the detection unit 36 (step ST1 b). If the detection unit 36 does not detect the radio signal (step ST1b: NO), the process of step ST1b is repeated.
When the detection unit 36 detects the radio signal (step ST1b: yes), the output unit 35A notifies the user a of the setting request (step ST2 b). The output unit 35A displays, for example, a notification screen that enables selection of a request such as "call immediately now" or "limit a predetermined time". The input unit 33 receives a request corresponding to the notification screen.
The request determination unit 34A determines whether the request received by the input unit 33 is "current immediate call" or "call registration limiting the predetermined time" (step ST3 b). For example, when a selection button described as "current immediate call" is selected using the touch panel, the input unit 33 receives selection information. The request determination unit 34A determines that the request selected by the user A is a request for immediately performing call registration based on the information received by the input unit 33 (step ST3b: immediate call at present).
Upon receiving the determination result of the request determination unit 34A, the function execution unit 31 immediately registers the call that has been set in the control device 4 (step ST4 b). The function execution unit 31 may instruct the output unit 35A to display a call registration screen for registering a new call on the display. The input unit 33 outputs call information set on the basis of the call registration screen to the function execution unit 31. The function execution unit 31 registers a call set on the basis of the call registration screen in the control device 4.
When the request determination unit 34A determines that the request selected by the user a is a request for extending the time limit for call registration based on the information received by the input unit 33 (step ST3b; limiting the predetermined time), the request determination unit notifies the function limiting unit 32 of the determination result. For example, when the user a selects a selection button described as "limit predetermined time" using the touch panel, the input unit 33 receives the selection information. The request determination unit 34A determines that the request is a request for limiting the predetermined time based on the selection information received by the input unit 33.
Upon receiving the determination result of the request determination unit 34A, the function restriction unit 32 restricts call registration for a predetermined time (step ST5 b). Next, the function restriction unit 32 determines whether restriction of call registration is to be released or a restriction time has elapsed (step ST6 b). When the restriction is not released and the restriction time has not elapsed (step ST6b: no), the function restriction unit 32 returns to step ST6b and continues the restriction of call registration. When the restriction is released or the restriction time has elapsed (step ST6b: YES), a series of processes starting from step ST1b are repeated.
In operation (2) shown in fig. 8, the request of the user a is received at the time when the approach of the mobile terminal 3A is detected by the detection unit 36, but the output unit 35A may receive the request of the user a at other times. For example, the output unit 35A may receive a request from the user a at the time when the call registration screen is displayed. The output unit 35A may receive a request from the user a at a time point when the operating system installed in the mobile terminal 3A has performed a setting notification indicating that the wireless signal is detected by the detection unit 36 and that call registration is performed in association with the detection.
In the above description, the configuration in which the portable terminal 3A has the detection unit 36 and the transmitter 6 is disposed on the elevator 2 side has been described, but the portable terminal 3A may have the transmitter 6 and the detection unit 36 may be disposed on the elevator 2 side. In this case, when the detection unit 36 detects the approach of the mobile terminal 3A to the elevator 2, the detection information is transmitted to the mobile terminal 3A. The mobile terminal 3A performs the above-described processing by regarding the time when the detection information of the detection unit 36 is received as the time when the detection unit 36 detects the approach.
As described above, the elevator system 1A of embodiment 2 includes the detection unit 36, and the detection unit 36 detects the approach of the mobile terminal 3A to the elevator 2. When the approach of the mobile terminal 3A to the elevator 2 is continuously detected for a predetermined time or longer while the call registration is restricted, the output unit 35A outputs notification information. The request determination unit 34A determines whether the request received by the input unit 33 is a request for performing call registration or a request for extending the time for limiting call registration. Thus, even if additional call registration is restricted, it is possible to select between performing call registration and extending the restriction time of call registration according to the intention of the user a. In this way, the elevator system 1A can operate the elevator 2 in consideration of the intention of the user a to use the elevator 2.
In the elevator system 1A according to embodiment 2, even if call registration is not restricted, the input unit 33 receives a request from the user a when the request determination unit 34A detects the approach of the mobile terminal 3A to the elevator 2. The request determination unit 34A determines whether the request received by the input unit 33 is a request for performing call registration or a request for restricting call registration. When the restriction of call registration is not performed and the detection unit 36 detects the approach of the mobile terminal 3A to the elevator 2, a request from the user a is received before the car is called. Thus, the elevator system 1A can perform the operation of the elevator 2 in consideration of the intention of the user a to use the elevator 2.
In embodiment 1 and embodiment 2, the function executing unit 31, the function limiting unit 32, the input unit 33, the request determining unit 34 or 34A, and the output unit 35 or 35A are components of the mobile terminal 3 or 3A, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, the portable terminal 3 or 3A may include the input unit 33 as a component related to the operation of the user a and the output unit 35 or 35A as a component related to the information provided to the user a, and the control device 4 may include other components. Even in the elevator system 1 or 1A configured as described above, the same effects as described above can be obtained.
In addition, combinations of the embodiments, modifications of any of the components of the embodiments, or omission of any of the components of the embodiments may be made.
Industrial applicability
The elevator system of the present invention can be used for controlling the operation of an elevator installed in a high-rise building, for example.
