  • Embodiments of the technology relate in particular to an elevator system with elevator operating devices for passengers with restricted mobility and a method for operating such an elevator system.
  • elevator operating devices are arranged on the individual floors, with which a passenger can call an elevator.
  • an elevator operating device arranged on a floor has up/down buttons so that the passenger can enter the desired direction of travel.
  • the elevator car has a car operating device with which the passenger in the elevator car can enter the desired destination floor.
  • the passenger can already enter the destination floor on an elevator operating device on the floor.
  • the elevator system is equipped with destination call control technology, and the elevator operating devices arranged on the floors each have either a keyboard, a touch-sensitive screen and/or a data acquisition device (e.g. in the form of one known from EP 0 699 617 B1) for entering the destination floor RFID card reader).
  • Elevator operating devices should also be able to be operated comfortably and reliably for passengers with restricted mobility.
  • the physical limitations can affect, for example, vision, hearing or physical mobility.
  • Elevator operator devices for example, which each have or display a special button (e.g. with a symbol for a wheelchair) are generally known. If this button is pressed, the elevator system switches to an operating mode suitable for the disabled.
  • z. B. from EP 2 331 443 B1 known that an elevator operating device with a touch-sensitive screen in a special input mode changes when some kind of wandering motion is detected on the touch screen.
  • the elevator system includes an elevator operating device and an activation device.
  • the elevator operating device is communicatively connected to the elevator control and is arranged on a floor.
  • the elevator operating device has a first radio device, an audio device and a touch-sensitive screen for inputting a destination floor desired by a passenger and for outputting travel information.
  • the activation device has an actuating device accessible to the passenger and a second radio device for radio communication with the first radio device.
  • the activation device is arranged on one of the floors within radio range of the elevator operating device arranged there, the second radio device being designed to emit an activation radio signal when the passenger operates the activation device.
  • the elevator operating device is designed to switch from a normal operating mode to a special operating mode when the first radio device receives the activation radio signal, to generate operating instructions for a call input by the passenger in the special operating mode and to switch to the normal operating mode when the call has been input.
  • Another aspect of the technology relates to a method for operating an elevator system in which an elevator operating device that is communicatively connected to an elevator controller is arranged on a floor and an activation device is arranged on one of the floors within radio range of the elevator operating device arranged there, the elevator operating device having a normal operating mode and a special operating mode Has.
  • the method includes receiving, by the elevator operating device, an activation signal initiated by a passenger at the activation device. After receiving the activation signal, the special operating mode of the elevator operating device is activated, with the elevator operating device changing from the normal operating mode to the special operating mode. Thereafter, the elevator operating device executes a routine for an operating instruction, whereby the elevator operating device supports the passenger who caused the activation signal with a call input at the elevator operating device.
  • the destination call is transmitted to the elevator control system by the elevator operating device.
  • Travel information is communicated to the passenger by the elevator operating device, the travel information specifying an elevator car determined by the elevator control and serving the destination call.

For passengers, in particular those with poor eyesight, the technology described here has the advantage that they can conveniently enter a desired destination floor on an elevator operating device with a touchscreen.
  • the activation device allows these passengers to activate the special operating mode of the elevator operating device, as is used, for example, in elevator systems with destination call control technology. In this special operating mode, the passenger is supported when entering the call. Passengers without a physical disability, on the other hand, can continue to use the elevator operating device with which they are already familiar.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un système d'ascenseur (1) comprenant un dispositif de commande d'ascenseur (4) et un dispositif d'activation (6). Le dispositif de commande d'ascenseur (4) est relié au contrôleur d'ascenseur (13) et il est situé à un étage (L, L1). Le dispositif de commande d'ascenseur (4) comprend un premier dispositif radio (5), un dispositif audio (9) et un écran tactile (11) servant à la saisie d'un étage de destination souhaité par un passager (P) et à la diffusion d'informations de déplacement. Le dispositif d'activation (6) comporte un dispositif d'actionnement (38) accessible au passager (P) et un deuxième dispositif radio (7) servant à la communication radio avec le premier dispositif radio (5) ; le dispositif d'activation est situé au sein de la portée radio par rapport au dispositif de commande d'ascenseur (4). Le deuxième dispositif radio (7) transmet un signal radio d'activation lorsque le dispositif d'actionnement (38) est actionné par le passager (P). Le dispositif de commande d'ascenseur (4) commute alors un mode de fonctionnement normal à un mode de fonctionnement spécial, dans lequel est générée une instruction de fonctionnement pour un appel saisi par le passager (P). Après la saisie d'un appel, le dispositif de commande d'ascenseur passe en mode de fonctionnement normal.
