Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for operating an elevator installation with a shaft system and a plurality of elevator cars that can be moved individually between shaft positions, the shaft system having a plurality of shafts in which at least two vertically adjacent shaft positions are spaced more closely from one another than the predetermined distance between two adjacent shaft positions arranged elevator cabins.
  • the invention relates to an elevator system with a shaft system, a plurality of elevator cars that can be moved in the shaft system, and a control device for operating the elevator system.
  • the invention can be used in elevator installations with a shaft system and a number of elevator cars that can be moved via guide devices.
  • At least one stationary first guide rail is arranged in a fixed manner in a shaft and is aligned in a first, in particular vertical, direction;
  • at least one fixed second guide rail is fixedly aligned in a second, in particular horizontal, direction;
  • at least one third guide rail which is rotatable relative to the shaft, can be transferred between an alignment in the first direction and an alignment in the second direction.
  • Such systems are basically in the WO 2015/144781 A1 and in the WO2016/135090 A1 and in the German patent applications DE 10 2016 211 997 and DE 10 2015 218 025 described.
  • Elevator installations for such purposes are known, in particular also so-called multi-car installations, in which several cars can be moved separately and largely independently of one another in a shaft system.
  • Methods known in the prior art for operating such elevator installations provide for what is known as circulating operation, for example.
  • the elevator cabins become independent from each other up in one shaft and down in another shaft. Since the elevator cars can be moved separately from one another in such multi-car systems, the task is to move the elevator cars in a suitable manner.
  • Traffic jams can occur in the case of multi-car systems operated in circulation, since several cars are moved in the same shaft and cannot pass one another. Furthermore, the floors traveled to by the elevator cars or the shaft positions corresponding to them depend on the current transport requirements of the passengers, so that the elevator cars do not always stop at the same floors. In addition, there may be waiting times if shafts have at least two shaft positions that are closely spaced from one another, in particular due to a low storey height. This is problematic when, as a result of the vertical space requirement of the elevator cars, it is not possible for two elevator cars to be in shaft positions arranged one above the other at the same time. In this case, a subsequent elevator car can only move to the adjacent shaft position when the preceding elevator car has left the other of the two shaft positions. A traffic jam caused by this usually only resolves slowly and leads to longer waiting times for the people to be transported. Longer waiting and delay times are perceived by people as particularly annoying and uncomfortable.
  • the object of the invention is to provide an improved method for operating an elevator system and an improved elevator system with a plurality of individual elevator cars that can be moved between shaft positions.
  • the method according to the invention is used to operate an elevator system.
  • the elevator system has a shaft system and a plurality of elevator cars that can be moved individually between shaft positions.
  • the shaft system has at least two first shafts, in which the elevator cars are moved in a first direction of travel, and at least one second shaft, in which the elevator cars are moved in a second direction of travel.
  • the shaft positions in the first Shafts and in the at least one second shaft are vertically positioned in the same way. At least two vertically adjacent shaft positions of the shafts are at a smaller distance from one another, which is less than the distance specified for the simultaneous positioning of two elevator cars at vertically adjacent shaft positions.
  • the elevator cars in a first shaft only travel to one of two vertically adjacent shaft positions that are a short distance from one another, and the elevator cars in another first shaft only travel to the other of two shaft positions that are a short distance from one another.
  • the elevator cars are consequently assigned to these shaft positions in such a way that the elevator cars in a first shaft can only stop at one of these shaft positions, depending on the transport requirement from or to one of the vertically adjacent shaft positions that are at a small distance from one another, and the elevator cars can stop when there is a transport requirement from or to one such a shaft position in another first shaft can only stop at the other of these vertically adjacent shaft positions. If there is no need for transport to such a shaft position, the elevator car does not stop either.
  • the assignment of shaft and shaft position can be predetermined or temporarily fixed for the elevator system.
  • the elevator cars in a first shaft do not stop at one of the shaft positions that have a small distance to one another and the elevator cars in another first shaft do not stop at the other of the vertically adjacent shaft positions that have a small distance to one another.
  • the elevator cars stop in a first shaft at the top of the shaft positions that are a small distance from one another, and in another first shaft at the bottom of two vertically adjacent shaft positions that are a short distance from one another. In this way, the elevator cars in a shaft only approach one of the vertically adjacent shaft positions that are at a small distance from one another and can stop there.
  • the elevator system has a shaft system and a plurality of elevator cars that can be moved individually between shaft positions.
  • the elevator cars can be moved at different speeds. In particular, some elevator cars cannot be moved while other elevator cars are being moved.
  • the shaft system has at least two first shafts, in which the elevator cars are moved in a first direction of travel, and at least one second shaft, in which the elevator cars are moved in a second direction of travel.
  • the first and second directions of travel are usually aligned vertically upwards and downwards, with an alignment inclined relative to the vertical also being possible. This reduces the risk of a collision between elevator cars traveling in different directions.
  • the first shaft and the second shaft can also be areas of a shaft.
  • the elevator cars can change between a first shaft and a second shaft in particular at horizontally aligned changing stations.
  • the shaft positions in the first shaft and in the at least one second shaft, which can be approached by the elevator cars to get passengers off and on, are vertically positioned in the same way.
  • the vertical positioning of the shaft positions essentially results from the division of the floors of a building, so that the shaft positions of different elevator shafts of a shaft system of a building are usually positioned in the same vertical way.
  • at least two vertically adjacent shaft positions are at a distance from one another that is less than the distance between other vertically adjacent shaft positions in the building.
  • the overall height of elevator cars requires a predetermined distance between two vertically adjacent shaft positions so that two elevator cars can be positioned at adjacent shaft positions in order to enable passengers to enter and exit an elevator car at the respective shaft positions.
  • two vertically adjacent shaft positions are at a smaller distance from one another that is less than the distance specified for the simultaneous positioning of two elevator cars at adjacent shaft positions.
  • the following elevator car can only approach the vertically adjacent shaft position when the preceding elevator car has left the shaft position in front of it in the direction of travel.
  • the elevator cars in a first shaft only travel to one of the two vertically adjacent shaft positions that are a small distance from one another, and the elevator cars in another first shaft only travel to the other of these two vertically adjacent shaft positions that are a small distance from one another. Because the elevator cars in a shaft only approach one, and thus only the lower or the upper, of the vertically adjacent shaft positions that are at a small distance from one another, two elevator cars can be in different shafts at the same time in the vertically adjacent shaft positions without mutual impairments due to the structural conditions. When operated in accordance with the proposed method, the elevator system offers a higher conveying capacity.
  • the elevator cars in a second shaft only approach one of two vertically adjacent shaft positions that are a short distance from one another, and the elevator cars in another second shaft only approach the other of two vertically adjacent shaft positions.
  • traffic jams in elevator cars traveling in the first direction of travel in a first shaft traffic jams in elevator cars traveling in a second direction of travel in a second shaft are also avoided in the same way.
  • a second shaft is assigned to a first shaft to form a circuit.
  • the elevator cars run in a circulating operation in the first shaft in a first direction of travel and in the second shaft in a second direction of travel. In this way, an elevator car is assigned to one circuit in each case.
  • the transition from the first chute to the second chute usually takes place above the top chute position and the transition from the second chute to the first chute takes place below the bottom chute position.
  • at least two further shafts are required in the shaft system in addition to one circuit, at least one first and at least one second shaft, through which at least one further circuit can be formed.
  • the elevator cars of a circuit travel to only one or only the other of two vertically adjacent shaft positions that are at a small distance from one another. This means that the elevator cars only approach one or only the other of these shaft positions both in the first direction of travel and in the second direction of travel. In this way, with this embodiment, the risk of jams can be further reduced both in the first and in the second shaft of the circuit. This is particularly advantageous in the case of circulating elevator systems, since a jam or a delay in one of the two shafts can also continue in the other shaft. Furthermore, this embodiment of the proposed method also enables an advantageous, in particular horizontally adjacent arrangement of the shaft positions on the floor at which the passengers can enter and exit the elevator cars in order to be transported further up or down.
  • the elevator cars move to the shaft positions according to a predetermined pattern.
  • predetermined patterns are also particularly suitable for buildings with a plurality of vertically adjacent shaft positions which are each at a small distance from one another. It can be advantageous here, for example, if the elevator cars alternately travel only to every second shaft position.
  • Such a predetermined pattern can, for example, be regularly provided for all shaft positions of a shaft, or also be defined differently for one or more sections of a shaft. For example, if there are three shaft positions that are a short distance from the vertically adjacent shaft position, the proposed method can be used to approach only the first and third of the three shaft positions in a first or second shaft and in the other first or second shaft the second of the three shaft positions. A delay when approaching a shaft position is avoided or at least reduced by the gap that results between the shaft positions that are approached.
  • the shaft positions approached by the elevator cars each correspond to a multiple of a natural number over the entire length of the shaft or only in a predetermined region of a shaft, given consecutive numbering.
  • the natural number is in a range from 2 to n, where n is in particular the number of first or second shafts of the shaft system of the elevator system or the number of shafts in which the Elevator cabins are moved in the same direction of travel corresponds.
  • the natural number is 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or a larger natural number, so that the elevator cars of a shaft approach every second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth or further shaft position of a shaft.
  • each shaft position is approached by the elevator cars in another of the three first shafts.
  • the elevator cars travel to fewer shaft positions in a shaft, which reduces the possibility of congestion, enables a shorter cycle time and leads to a higher conveying capacity overall.
  • a predetermined pattern can also only be used for one or more specific sections of a shaft or can have different areas. If, for example, there are several shaft positions, each of which is a short distance from one another, in an upper area of a building, the elevator cars can move to any shaft position in the lower area of the building, and correspondingly only move to predetermined shaft positions in the upper area of the building.
  • access to the elevator cabins in the entrance area of a building takes place via two access shaft positions arranged one above the other.
  • the shaft positions that can be approached by the elevator cars are alternately assigned to one or the other access shaft position. In this way, only every second shaft position is approached by an elevator car. In this way, there can be no delay in approaching a shaft position due to a short distance from a vertically adjacent shaft position. This already reduces the risk of traffic jams.
  • the alternating assignment of the shaft positions to elevator cars can also be maintained in the second shaft of the circuit in order to also reduce the risk of a jam in the second shaft.
  • the exit from the second shaft can also take place from two exit shaft positions arranged one above the other.
  • the exit shaft positions can also be assigned to the shaft positions approached by the elevator cars, corresponding to the access shaft positions.
  • the elevator cars move to each shaft position during transport processes between floors.
  • peak traffic times in particular between elevator cars of the distribution traffic from the entrance area of the building to the different floors.
  • successive elevator cars which approach adjacent shaft positions occur less frequently, in particular outside of the rush hour.
  • every shaft position is approached during transport processes between the floors, in order to simplify the transport of people between the shaft positions above the access level, particularly outside of peak traffic times.
  • the elevator cars move to each shaft position when being transported to a starting shaft position. Similar to the transport processes between the floors, experience has shown that the outgoing traffic from a building spreads out from the various floors back to an exit shaft position over a longer period of time. The risk of traffic jams caused by successive elevator cars, which approach two vertically adjacent shaft positions that are at a small distance from one another, is correspondingly lower. The waiting time for passengers can be reduced, in particular outside of the main traffic times for outgoing traffic, if the elevator cars approach each shaft position during transport processes to a starting shaft position.
  • At least one predetermined shaft position is approached by each elevator car, in particular also when the predetermined shaft position is at a short distance from a vertically adjacent shaft position.
  • a predetermined shaft position can be that of a particularly frequently frequented floor in which, for example, an event room or a canteen is located. Due to the increased need for transport to this access shaft position, the capacity of the elevator system can be increased by approaching the shaft position from each elevator car, although delays are possible, in particular due to elevator cars that have an adjacent shaft position with a smaller distance between the shaft positions approach if these neighboring shaft positions are approached with a significantly lower frequency.
  • the selection of the shaft positions approached by the elevator cars is adjusted during predetermined transportation phases.
  • the transportation requirement of an elevator system changes in particular over the course of the day or, for example, as a result of events taking place on a floor. It is thus possible to make an adjustment within the scope of the proposed method, for example during the course of the day and/or depending on the day of the week, or to change the approach to shaft positions at short notice in accordance with a current change in the transport requirements.
  • At least one first and at least one second shaft is operated in a shuttle mode.
  • the elevator cars usually move from an access shaft position to a predetermined shaft position in particular. This is particularly advantageous if, for example, only one or a few selected floors in a building are to be accessible to the public.
  • the elevator system is then aligned in such a way that the elevator cars in the other shafts approach both shaft positions that are adjacent to a shaft position approached in shuttle mode. This is advantageously also possible when there is a short distance between a shaft position approached by the shuttle and one or both vertically adjacent shaft positions.
  • an elevator system with a shaft system and a plurality of elevator cars that can be moved individually between shaft positions.
  • the shaft system has at least two first shafts, in which the elevator cars can be moved in a first direction of travel, and at least one second shaft, in which the elevator cars can be moved in a second direction of travel.
