Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for automatically processing user-based data relating to an elevator, in particular an industrial or construction elevator, an elevator with such a device, and to a method for operating such a device or such an elevator.
  • the invention is based on the object of providing a device for automatically processing user-based data relating to an elevator of the aforementioned type, to provide an elevator with such a device and to provide a method for operating such a device or such an elevator.
  • the device for the automatic processing of user-based data relating to an elevator has a device for the automatic, journey-dependent acquisition of the user data and a control unit which can be connected to the device for automatic acquisition and from the user data of the device the intensity of the use of the elevator for each user and saves the relevant data. It is advantageous here that the detection of the users takes place automatically, so that there is no need to scan in user cards and in this respect no person has to be provided at the elevator to scan in the cards.
  • the aforementioned intensity of elevator use is defined in such a way that it includes all journeys by the relevant user, ie the quantity of elevator use. However, this can also include the quality of elevator use, such as the difference in height covered between the start and destination floor, the weight of the load.
  • the device for the automatic, journey-dependent acquisition of the user data works on the basis of RFID or barcodes or on the basis of person or material recognition.
  • RFID stands for "radio frequency identification”.
  • Systems of this type are known in principle from practice. Their use in the area of automatic user recognition for elevators such as industrial or construction elevators has not yet been described.
  • control device can also be connected to the elevator control and/or to a sensor module, with the control device receiving additional information from this and/or from this additional information relating to the recorded, trip-dependent user data, such as the weight of the load, starting and Target floor, height difference between the start and target floor, time and duration of the journey, in order to take this additional information into account when determining the intensity of use of the elevator and storing it.
  • This makes it possible to record user data in a very detailed and comprehensive manner, which means that the use of the elevator can be billed accordingly. It is clear that with such a collection of user data there are fewer discrepancies regarding the use of the elevator. Such a user billing also leads to a fairer distribution of costs among the users.
  • control device can be connected to a module, preferably a mobile radio module, for reading out the user data for billing the use of the elevator and/or creating a travel profile for each user and/or for each trade and/or for the purpose of logistics planning and monitoring.
  • a module preferably a mobile radio module
  • the determined and stored data can therefore be used in a variety of ways, which will be discussed in more detail later.
  • the elevator in particular an industrial or construction elevator, has such a device.
  • the data from the elevator control can easily flow into the determination of the intensity of use of the elevator.
  • the method for operating the aforementioned device or the aforementioned elevator is characterized by the following steps: (a) automatic, journey-dependent acquisition of the user data; (b) determining the intensity of use of the elevator for each user from the user data determined in step (a); (c) storing the data obtained in steps (a) and (b). In this way, the intensity of elevator use can be determined easily, simply, quickly and inexpensively.
  • the user data is recorded according to step (a) after the beginning and before or after the end of each trip. This makes it easy to create a driving profile for the user in question, which can be used for other purposes.
  • step (b) additional information relating to the recorded, journey-dependent user data, such as weight of the payload, start and destination floors, height difference between start and destination floors, time and duration of the trip, is taken into account.
  • additional information relating to the recorded, journey-dependent user data such as weight of the payload, start and destination floors, height difference between start and destination floors, time and duration of the trip, is taken into account.
  • a large amount of data is thus available for further use, so that it is also possible, for example, to track journeys made by people and/or material.
  • the elevator usage for each user is billed from the collected data according to step (c) and/or a travel profile is created for each user and/or each trade, and/or logistics planning and/or monitoring is carried out from the collected data .
  • the determined data can be used for a large number of other tasks and thus the entire processes related to the elevator on the construction site, the logistics of the construction site can be planned and monitored and the construction progress can be recorded and monitored more easily.
  • In 1 is a schematic of a device 1 for automatically processing/capturing user-based data relating to an elevator 2 (in 1 not shown).
  • the elevator 2 is shown in a schematic plan view based on various embodiments in FIGS Figures 2 to 4 shown and particularly but not exclusively an industrial or construction hoist.
  • the device 1 has a device 3 for the automatic, journey-dependent acquisition of the user data for the relevant elevator and a control unit 4.

  • the control unit 4 determines the intensity of use of the elevator 2 for each user from the user data of the aforementioned device 3 and stores the relevant data in a memory 7, for example.
  • the memory 7 can be an external memory or an internal memory of the control device 4 .
  • the device 3 for the automatic, journey-dependent acquisition of the user data works on the basis of RFID or barcodes or on the basis of person or material recognition.
  • the device 3 is set up and designed on an RFID basis.
  • the device 3 has a transceiver 10, also called a reader, and at least one RFID antenna 11 1 , 2 and 4 In the embodiments shown, two RFID antennas 11 are provided in each case.

  • the antennas 11 determine in their radio range 12 (see Figures 2 to 4 ) Located RFID tags 13, also called RFID transponders. These are electronically readable labels or microchips. The individual numbers of the person or the material are stored digitally on these.
  • Antennas 11 and tags 13 are connected to one another via a radio link 14, for example.
  • control device 4 can also be connected to an elevator control 15 and/or to a sensor module 16, preferably again by means of a line 5 or a radio-controlled connection 6.
  • the control unit 4 receives additional information from the elevator control 15 and/or the sensor module 16 regarding the recorded, journey-dependent user data, such as the weight of the load on the elevator for the respective journey, start and destination floors, Altitude difference between the start and destination floor, time and duration of the journey, in order to take this additional information into account when determining the intensity of use of the elevator 2 and for storing the same.
  • the device 3 for the automatic, journey-dependent acquisition of the user data is designed in such a way that the user data can be determined (shortly) after the beginning and (shortly) before or after the end of each journey.
  • the term "short” here means a maximum time of a few seconds, such as 1 to 5 seconds. In this way, the device 3 can determine which tags 13 were involved in the journey.
  • control unit 4 can be connected to a module 17, preferably a mobile radio module, for example for reading out the user data for the purpose of billing for elevator use and/or creating a travel profile for each user and/or each trade and/or for the purpose of logistics planning and monitoring, preferably by means of connected to a line 5 or a radio-controlled connection 6, as described in 1 is indicated.
  • a module 17 preferably a mobile radio module, for example for reading out the user data for the purpose of billing for elevator use and/or creating a travel profile for each user and/or each trade and/or for the purpose of logistics planning and monitoring, preferably by means of connected to a line 5 or a radio-controlled connection 6, as described in 1 is indicated.
  • FIG. 2 to 4 different embodiments of the elevator 2 are each shown in a plan view, which elevator is provided with the device 3 in each case. From the establishment 3 are in the Figures 2 to 4 only the antennas 11 and the radio portion 12 of each antenna are shown.
  • the elevator is along a scaffolding or building 20, which is in the Figures 2 to 4 is indicated only schematically, on one or more masts 21 up and down.
  • the elevator 2 can be moved along a mast 21 .
  • the elevator forms a closed platform here.
  • the device 3 here has two antennas 11 with circular radio areas 12. The antennas are attached to the inside of the ceiling of the elevator, which is not shown in detail.
  • the elevator 2 is designed as an open stage, guided on two masts 21 and movable along them.
  • This elevator forms an open platform and therefore has no closed roof.
  • Only one antenna 11 is provided here, which is mounted on the side of the elevator, as shown in 3 is indicated.
  • the radio range 12 of the antenna 11 is cone-shaped here.
  • Yet another embodiment of the invention is 4 shown schematically in a plan view.
  • the elevator 2 is designed as a larger stage, also guided on two masts 21 and movable along them.
  • This elevator also forms a so-called open platform and therefore has no closed roof.
  • Two antennas 11 are provided here, which are mounted on the elevator 2 on the same side.
  • the radio range 12 of the antennas 11 is cone-shaped here. It is clear that the antennas 11 can also be arranged on opposite sides of the elevator.
  • the user data is preferably recorded according to step (a) shortly after the beginning and shortly before or shortly after the end of each trip.
  • step (b) additional information relating to the recorded, journey-dependent user data, such as weight of the payload, start and destination floor, height difference between start and destination floor, time and duration of the trip, is taken into account.
  • the use of the elevator for each user is calculated and billed from the data collected according to step (c). Furthermore, a travel profile can be created for each user and/or for each trade and/or logistics planning and monitoring as well as extensive control of the material flow and thus the work carried out on the building can be carried out. The recorded data can be used to determine how people, trades or materials using the elevator have moved on the construction site. This can be used to draw conclusions about logistics planning and monitoring.
  • the invention enables users to be identified in the case of transport platforms and material and passenger elevators without them having to register separately.
  • the user is recognized, for example, via the previously described RFID technology.
  • Elevator users are identified by comparing the recognized RFID "participants", referred to above as tags, in certain states of elevator operation.
  • the tags are attached, for example, by the user to the respective personal protective equipment or the construction site pass.
  • the tag can preferably be attached to the protective helmet, particularly preferably to the inside of the protective helmet.
  • the tags are on the one hand far enough away from the user's body, on the other hand they are in a defined position in the elevator, which makes it easier to place the antennas in the elevator.
  • the helmet also protects the day from damage and dirt. This positioning also avoids any separate action by the user. It is only necessary to wear the protective helmet as part of the personal protective equipment. In any case, helmets are compulsory on construction sites. Transported goods/materials or tools are identified in the same way if they have been previously equipped with the appropriate tags. In this respect, materials can be equipped with separate tags. It is also possible to provide special tags for trouble-free mounting on the material or cargo.
  • the determination of the tags present is preferably triggered with the ascent and/or descent of the elevator, as a result of which it is determined which tags took part in the ascent and/or descent. This process runs automatically, so that, as mentioned before, no special registration at the device or at the elevator is necessary. All users are identified and identified at the same time.
  • the user data including the user profiles and usage profiles, are stored electronically and can be retrieved or retrieved by the operator.
  • user identification is preferably carried out using RFID technology, namely in the range from 865 to 868 MHz/UHF.
  • RFID technology namely in the range from 865 to 868 MHz/UHF.
  • the user of the tag is first digitally described with an individual number. This digital number is linked to the personal/company data in a database in the customer system or in an online system. When using the elevators, only the digital number is identified.
  • One or more antennas for RFID detection are installed in each elevator.
  • the reader either separate or integrated into the antenna(s), contains the transmitter/receiver device, also known as the transceiver, for the RFID antennas and can address and read the tags via the antennas.
  • the central control device controls the reader and reads the received results.
  • the controller switches the send and read function on and off in order to carry out a recognition (detection) of the desired operating status of the respective elevator.
  • the active time of the transmission of the respective antenna can be reduced by time-controlled scanning processes, so that the environment and thus the users are only minimally exposed to the necessary emission.
  • the tags detected by the reader are transmitted to the control unit and temporarily stored there. After completing the journey or when starting a new journey, it is determined which tags were continuously in the reception area during the last journey. From this it can be concluded which tags took part in the last trip.
  • driving profiles can be created or created using the additional information described above to be completed. Alternatively, this information can be provided by external sensors or sensor modules.
  • the driving profiles of the respective users are then saved.
  • the elevator operator has access to the stored user data either via online access or by removing the memory.
  • the user or usage data is compared with the aforementioned personal database.
  • the usage profiles are personalized.
  • the elevator can be used by people or objects.
  • the commercial benefit of the invention is that the elevators can be billed based on actual usage, which is currently costly or ineffective.
  • the respective users can be determined with the help of readers on floor modules. It can be checked in advance whether these users have received permission to use the elevator.
  • the radio range of the at least one antenna is preferably locally limited in such a way that only the people or the material in the car are detected.
  • the radio range can be locally limited, for example, via the radio frequency, the orientation of the antennas, which are attached, for example, to the ceiling in the elevator car and radiate downwards, and the transmission power.
  • the user data is linked to the control of the machine, namely the elevator.
  • the aforementioned additional information is preferably collected after a scanning process has been triggered and the detected tags have been temporarily stored. If desired, an intermediate scan can also be carried out while driving. It is clear that after the journey has ended, the recorded tags including the additional information are stored in the control unit or on an external memory.
  • the booking information is transmitted to the control device, including the time information such as date and time, as well as the released tags and optionally the selection of the target floors.
  • the device according to the invention preferably automatically switches from user recognition to booking mode, in which case the elevator can then only be used for the released tags and the destination floor(s) that may have been released.
  • a move command With a move command, a check is made as to whether the detected tags are enabled tags. If this is the case, a trip is possible; if this is not the case, no journey can take place.
  • a similar procedure is also used when a material transport is to be carried out with or without an additional person.
  • the materials to be transported must be provided with one or more tags, or an authorized person can be registered by the facility so that it is clear that this material journey can be assigned to the person concerned and that he or she will be billed later.
