Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a display device for an elevator system and a method for communication with such an elevator system.
  • an elevator control assigns a corresponding transport order to one of the existing elevator cars and informs the user which elevator car he should use. For this purpose, the control informs the user of a specific identifier which has been assigned to the elevator car executing his transport order, and displays this identifier at an entry point if the corresponding elevator car is available there.
  • the elevator control gives a user the identifier "B3". If a display assigned to the elevator shaft “B” now outputs the identifier “B1”, the user recognizes that the elevator car designated by it is not intended for him. Only when the display shows the identifier "B3" does the user know that this elevator car will now carry out its transport order and gets on. In this way, the flow of people can be specifically divided and the elevator capacity can be optimized.
  • the “B1” car could drive to the top floors without interruption, while the “B3” car only serves the lower floors.
  • the user has no insight into the elevator system.
  • he does not know early on when "his" elevator car is available at the point of boarding, since only the identifier of the elevator car that is next to arrive or that is currently stopping on the floor is output.
  • the user is forced to always carefully observe the display of the boarding location while waiting for the elevator car assigned to his transport order. There is therefore a considerable risk that the user will lose the elevator car assigned to his transport order missed or mistakenly got into the wrong elevator car.
  • JP 62 116484 A discloses a method for controlling several elevator cars in an elevator shaft. A position of the elevator car in each of the four shafts can be seen on a display. Therefore, you can see on which floor an elevator car is currently located.
  • JP 2000272850 A discloses a display device for displaying elevator cars for displaying elevator cars and their positions in their respective shaft. The positions of the elevator cars are indicated by the designation of a shaft being displayed next to the designation of a floor.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide an improved display device and an improved communication method.
  • a display device for an elevator system which has at least one elevator shaft in which several elevator cars move.
  • the display device comprises at least one identifier manager who assigns a temporary identifier to an elevator car executing a transport order, as well as at least one display assigned to an entry point for outputting, preferably for visual output, the assigned identifier, the display simultaneously outputting the identifiers of several elevator cars.
  • the elevator cars preferably move autonomously, i.e. essentially independent of one another, although a collision between elevator cars must of course be ruled out. Equally, individual or all elevator cars can also move in a coupled manner.
  • the elevator cars can either only move vertically or vertically and horizontally.
  • a horizontal movement allows the transfer of an elevator car to another elevator shaft or an intermediate storage area, which advantageously enables the formation of pure upward or downward movements.
  • upward shafts permitted.
  • the division into upward and downward shafts is not mandatory - for example, one or more elevator shafts can be used as upward shafts at the beginning of a working day, which are used as downward shafts at the end of the working day.
  • the identifier manager assigned to each boarding point can be designed as part of a central elevator control that assigns a transport order to a specific elevator car and at the same time assigns its identifier to this car according to certain criteria, for example the capacity utilization, the positions or the destinations of the cars.
  • the allocation of the identifiers can advantageously be summarized in one place and managed jointly, thereby reducing communication with independent systems.
  • the concept of a central elevator control does not necessarily mean a physically central control - a central elevator control in the sense of the present invention can equally be implemented, for example, by elevator car controls that communicate with one another.
  • the identifier manager can also be designed as an independent system for each boarding point, which informs the central elevator control, which has registered the destination call of the user and selected an elevator car to fulfill the transport order, the identifier that the independent system assigns to this elevator car for this boarding point.
  • Such an independent system can, for example, be integrated in a destination call station in which a user can place his destination call.
  • an identifier manager can be provided for each floor and assign identifiers to the elevator cabins for this floor, and it communicates these identifiers to the central elevator control. This combines the advantages of the solutions described above.
  • An entry point can in particular be formed by an elevator shaft door on one floor. If elevator cabs are accessible from one floor in several elevator shafts arranged for example next to one another and / or opposite one another, their elevator shaft doors correspondingly form several boarding locations on this floor. If an elevator car on a floor is accessible from two or more elevator shaft doors, then each elevator shaft door for itself or several, in particular all elevator shaft doors through which the elevator car is accessible on this floor, can jointly define a boarding point.
  • each elevator shaft door forms its own boarding point
  • different users of the same elevator car can be directed through the different elevator shaft doors by giving this elevator car its own for each boarding point, that is to say for each elevator shaft door Identifier is assigned and one of these identifiers is communicated to the various users.
  • an elevator car that is accessible through two elevator shaft doors "A” and “B” on the same floor can have an identifier manager assigned to elevator shaft door “A” the identifier "A1”, and an identifier manager assigned to elevator shaft door "B” the identifier "B1" to assign.
  • the elevator shaft doors leading to an elevator car on one floor can also form a common boarding point, whereby it is up to the users which of the elevator shaft doors they use. In this way, fewer different identifiers have to be managed and output.
  • a storey does not necessarily mean vertically spaced levels.
  • the elevator shaft doors to several elevator shafts can be vertically spaced from one another for structural reasons, for example in a hotel lobby. Nevertheless, these elevator shaft doors can be assigned to the same floor, in this case the hotel lobby.
  • a transport order includes not only the destination but also the starting position, for example the floor on which the user is located
  • different identifiers can be assigned to the same elevator car on different floors in order to direct different users to different boarding locations of the same elevator car.
  • an elevator car can be assigned an identifier "2" on a floor in which only its elevator shaft has access to it, and an identifier "B2" on another floor in which several elevator shafts each have access to an elevator also specify the elevator shaft.
  • the identifier "B2" can be used in an elevator car at an entry point. at another boarding point the same car can be assigned the identifier "B4".
  • an independent identifier manager is preferably provided, which, as stated above, is designed as an independent system, but can also be implemented in a system for several boarding options, for example on one floor, or in a central elevator control.
  • Each identifier manager comprises a memory in which a number of identifiers are stored, which the identifier manager allocates to elevator cars which are selected by the elevator control for a stop at the boarding point assigned to the identifier manager.
  • the memories which are preferably formed from electronic components, are designed in such a way that the identifier administrator can only extract identifiers that are currently not assigned for allocation to elevator cars.
  • the number of identifiers stored in a respective memory is less than the number of elevator cars that can be selected for the execution of a transport order from an entry point assigned to this memory. For the user of elevator systems with many elevator cars, this has the advantage that he is not forced to memorize one identifier selected from a large number of different identifiers, but only one from a selection of three possible identifiers, for example.
  • Such a memory can for example be designed as a first-in-first-out memory (FIFO memory).
  • FIFO memory first-in-first-out memory
  • a separate memory is therefore preferably provided for each boarding point on the first floor or a central elevator control, but this does not have to be physically independent, but can also be represented, for example, by appropriate partitioning in the context of a larger physical memory.
  • a memory can also be designed as software.
  • a memory is abstractly any memory management that outputs successive elements (identifiers), whereby it is ensured that each of the elements is only output if it is not currently being used as an identifier, i.e. H. if a certain element was returned to the memory after use or was registered as no longer used.
  • a display device comprises a display for outputting one or more identifiers that are assigned to a boarding location.
  • the association is preferably spatial, for example by arranging the display next to, above or in the vicinity of an elevator shaft door.
  • the assignment can also be more abstract in that, for example, identifiers for different elevator shaft doors on a floor are output on a central display.
  • the identifiers of the corresponding elevator cars can be output in a site plan next to the individual elevator shaft doors.
  • a display within the meaning of the present invention can be an identifier optically, in particular in the form of alphanumeric characters, symbols and / or colors, acoustically, in particular in the form of spoken words, melodies or tones, haptically, in particular in the form of Braille characters, or output or display in another perceptible way.
  • An identifier is preferably supplied to the memory as soon as the elevator car to which it has been allocated leaves the boarding point and is thus available again. This makes it possible to inform another user who joins later that the elevator car is still at the boarding point as an elevator car also executing his transport order, provided, for example, the transport orders are identical or can be easily reconciled with one another.
  • the identifier can also be fed back to the memory as soon as the elevator car to which it has been allocated arrives at the boarding point. This means that this identifier is available for assignment again at an early stage, which affects the number of identifiers required and thus the capacity of the memory reduced.
  • the identifier can for example be returned to the memory and the corresponding display can be deleted as soon as the elevator shaft door begins to close. This avoids late and therefore dangerous boarding by users arriving late. In any case, it is advantageous not to output the identifier on the associated display as soon as it is returned to the memory.
  • the identifier can include a shaft-specific portion. It is thus possible to clearly instruct the user about a specific elevator car in a specific elevator shaft.
  • the display then preferably shows the entire identifier including its shaft-specific part, for example "U2", where "U” denotes the elevator shaft "and” 2 "denotes a particular car moving in.
  • U denotes the elevator shaft "and” 2 "denotes a particular car moving in.
  • the identifiers can include a car-specific part which is used to distinguish the individual elevator cars within an elevator shaft.
  • the cabin-specific components are preferably taken from a font and / or character set in an orderly order, for example the natural numbers 1, 2, 3, ... in Arabic or Roman representation. This allows a particularly memorable representation of the identifiers and also simplifies their management.
  • a display device for an elevator system with at least one elevator shaft in which several elevator cars move and which comprises an identifier manager to temporarily assign an identifier to an elevator car executing a transport order has a display assigned to an entry point for outputting several elevator cars simultaneously , advantageously in the order in which they will arrive at the boarding point.
  • This sequence can be represented, for example, by a spatial arrangement next to or one above the other. This gives the user an insight into the elevator system and can, for example, better estimate his waiting time.
  • he can be signaled at an early stage that his transport order has been assigned to an elevator car - he can, so to speak, follow the path of "his" elevator car.
  • at least the identifiers of the next two or three elevator cars that will stop at the boarding point are displayed.
  • the memory contains, for example, the natural numbers 1, 2, 3, ... in chronological order, possibly preceded by a shaft-specific portion, for example in the form of a Latin capital letter "A", “B", “C”, ...
  • the identifier "1" (or “A1", “B1”, 7) is assigned to the first elevator car that will stop at this boarding point, the identifier "2" (or “A2", “B2") to the next elevator car ", %) and so on.
  • an elevator car has left the entry point, its identifier is returned to the memory so that it is reassigned as soon as all the identifiers stored back before it have been assigned.
  • the sequence "1", “2”, “3” is repeated cyclically, but each elevator car on the Display of a specific boarding point is displayed by the same identifier until it has reached or left this boarding point.
  • a sequence of identifiers that can be predetermined by the initial occupancy of the FIFO memory is therefore advantageously retained.
  • the displays assigned to one of the floors preferably show the position of one or more elevator cars to which an identifier has been assigned for a stop on the assigned floor. This can be done, for example, in that the identifiers assigned to the arriving elevator cars are displayed next to a series of display elements depicting the floor positions. This improves
  • the elevator user has an overview of the elevator system, since not only the sequence of the arriving elevator cabs is known, but also the path they still have to cover. A user can thus better estimate the waiting time until the arrival of "his" elevator car.
  • an elevator car can already be indicated by a display assigned to one elevator shaft while the elevator car is still in the other elevator shaft.
  • the position of such an elevator car can either be displayed realistically, i.e. with positions changing against the direction of travel of the elevator cars in the one elevator shaft, or in a simplified manner, for example by means of static display elements that are arranged before a first or after a last floor position display of the one elevator shaft.
  • the storage capacity of the memory can be less than the number of maximum elevator cars moving in an elevator shaft. As a rule, not all of the elevator cabins passing a specific entry point also stop at this entry point. The non-stopping cars do not have to be assigned an identifier for these boarding locations, so that the storage capacity of the memory can be reduced.
  • a user is informed of the identifier of an elevator car executing his transport order in response to his destination call and displayed in a display assigned to an entry point before this elevator car arrives there and as long as it is available there.
  • the user can make the destination call, for example, by entering a desired destination floor, a specific room (for example his room number), a specific destination (for example "hotel swimming pool") or a visitor (who is assigned to their office) or the like using an alphanumeric keyboard, voice recognition, touch Pad or the like to a destination call station, a card reader, a mobile phone or the like or by wearing or activating a transmitter such as a hotel room key or an ID card.
  • the elevator control assigns the transport order, which includes the destination as well as the starting point, For example, the floor on which the destination call was placed, a prioritization of the user and the like can include a specific elevator car according to specific criteria.
  • An identifier manager assigns an individual identifier to this elevator car for the boarding location, which is communicated to the user:
  • the assigned identifier can be output optically and / or acoustically at the destination call station or the card reader or displayed on the user's mobile phone.
  • the identifier is displayed at the entry point if this elevator car is available there. As a result, the user recognizes that this elevator car will carry out his transport order and gets in.
  • the identifiers assigned to an entry point are cyclically assigned to the elevator cars, preferably in the order in which they arrive there and are available. If a total of n identifiers are available, for example the natural numbers 1, 2, ... n, the first elevator car that is provided at the boarding point is the identifier 1, the second elevator car is the identifier 2 and the nth elevator car is the identifier n allocated. The (n + 1) th elevator car is in turn assigned the identifier 1, the (n + 2) th elevator car the identifier 2, and so on.
  • identifiers assigned to an entry point are displayed simultaneously.
  • the number of possible identifiers is advantageously selected to be greater than or equal to the number of identifiers that are maximally output on the display assigned to the boarding point. If the number of possible identifiers corresponds to the maximum number displayed, the storage space can be minimized. If the number of possible identifiers is greater than the maximum number of identifiers displayed, the identifier of an elevator car that has just left the place of boarding does not appear immediately afterwards as an identifier for the elevator car that is newly added to the display, so that the display is clearer is improved.
  • an identifier manager has already assigned a temporary identifier for a specific boarding location as a result of a destination call by a first user of an elevator car and issued it to the first user, and if the elevator control allocates the same elevator car to a second user on the same floor based on his destination call, then this is Identifiers that have already been issued are also issued to this second user so that he can use the same elevator car.
  • the elevator control assigns an elevator car to this first user, the identifier manager for the first floor temporarily assigns this elevator car the identifier "U2" and assigns this identifier issued to the first user. If a second user on the first floor calls an elevator to go to the second floor, the elevator control assigns him the same elevator car that was temporarily assigned the identifier "U2" by the identifier manager for the first floor. Accordingly, this identifier is also output to the second user.
  • the elevator control assigns him the same elevator car that was assigned the identifier "U2" for the first floor by the identifier manager. This identifier is also output to the third user accordingly.
  • the display shows this identifier "U2". From this display, both the first and the second as well as the third user recognize that this elevator car is serving its transport order and get on. The elevator car then moves to the second and third floor one after the other.
  • Fig. 1 is shown, partially schematically, an elevator shaft 1.1 of an elevator system in which elevator cars 2.1-2.4 between floors 3, of which only the second to tenth floors 3.2-3.10 are shown, can move upwards autonomously.
  • a further elevator shaft 1.2 which is preferably used for the downward movement of the elevator cars, as well as further elevator shafts, not shown, can be arranged.
  • the elevator shafts 1 are not necessarily structurally separated from one another, but can for example be defined by guide rails for the elevator cars 2. The invention is explained below using an elevator shaft 1.1 in which the elevator cars 2 only move upwards.
  • the elevator shaft 1.1 has an elevator shaft door 4 on each floor, which forms an entry point.
  • a display 5 of the display device according to an embodiment of the present invention is arranged above each elevator shaft door 4 in such a way that a user unambiguously assigns this display to the elevator shaft door located below.
  • Figures 2A-2C show by way of example the displays 5.60, 5.70 and 5.100 assigned to the elevator shaft doors 4.6, 4.7 and 4.10 in the sixth, seventh and tenth floor values 3.6, 3.7 and 3.10, respectively.
  • the displays, not shown, for the remaining elevator shaft doors 4 to elevator shaft 1.1 and the elevator shaft doors to the other elevator shafts are of identical construction.
  • the first state shown holds the car 2.4 on the second and the car 2.3 on the fourth floor, while the cars 2.2, 2.1 are currently moving from the sixth to the seventh or from the eighth to the ninth floor.
  • Two user groups have made destination calls on floor 3.6, and three user groups each on floors 3.7 and 3.10.

  • an identifier manager assigned to an entry point 4 with a display device 5 assigns an elevator car 2 a temporary identifier which he can take from a memory, for example a FIFO memory.
  • an identifier manager assigned to floor 3.7 with elevator shaft door 4.7 first takes the identifier "A1" from its memory and temporarily assigns it to elevator car 2.2, which was first assigned a transport order for the seventh floor, and then takes it from it Store the identifier "A2" which follows and assign it temporarily to the elevator car 2.3, and finally it takes the identifier "A3" which follows from its memory and temporarily assigns it to the elevator car 2.4, which was last assigned a transport order for the seventh floor.
  • An identifier manager which is assigned to the elevator shaft door 4.10, works in an analogous manner, so that the following assignment of boarding-location-specific temporary identifiers to the elevator cars results: floor Elevator cabin 3.6 3.7 3.10 2.1 A1 2.2 A1 A2 2.3 A1 A2 A3 2.4 A2 A3

This is not a problem, since the elevator car only needs to be clearly identifiable on the respective floor 3.
  • the table also shows that elevator cars to which no transport order has been assigned for the floor in question and which therefore do not have to be identified on this floor are not assigned an identifier.
  • an identifier manager can also assign an identifier to those elevator cars whose transport order ends at the boarding point assigned to the identifier manager.

  • an identifier on the position bar 5.i2 lights up continuously as long as the assigned elevator car is approaching the respective boarding location, and starts to flash as soon as the elevator car initiates the braking process. This signals the elevator car that is just arriving particularly clearly, especially if a user does not know which floor he is on and the mere position display that an elevator car is on his floor would not be very meaningful for him.

For example, after in the first state Fig. 1 a user on the seventh floor 3.7 entered the 11th floor as the destination.
  • the central elevator control registers this destination call and assigns a corresponding transport order to an elevator car 2.
