Description

  The present invention relates to a boarding prevention elevator that prevents boarding with other passengers.

  Conventionally, elevators installed in buildings that do not want to ride with other passengers, such as special hotels and condominiums where pets can live, have a cage room divided by a partition, and a car operation panel and a car door are provided for each divided room. A landing door and a landing button corresponding to each divided room are provided on the landing side so that each door can be opened and closed independently so that each room can be used independently. When the car call is registered, the car calls to the car call registration floor without responding to the hall call to prevent boarding (for example, see Patent Document 1).

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 9-52682

However, if a car call is registered in this way, it will not respond to the hall call, so when the front or entrance floor is the lowest floor, the elevator is usually the hall call on the upper floor after responding to the car call. Respond to. Therefore, if the hall calls are concentrated, there is a problem that the response to the hall call on the lower floor is worse than that on the upper floor.
In addition, giving priority to the car call has a problem in that only one landing call can be answered in one reciprocating operation of the elevator, resulting in poor driving efficiency.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a ride-in prevention elevator in which the waiting times of the lower floor and the upper floor are the same, and the driving efficiency is improved.

  The elevator for preventing riding according to the present invention is divided into two cage rooms on the left and right sides, and the two cage rooms are provided with cages assigned to upper floors and lower floors, and are called hall landings belonging to upper floors. The passenger who made the call to one of the above-mentioned cage rooms and the passenger who made the hall call of the floor belonging to the lower floor are separately led to the other above-mentioned cage room.

  The effect of the elevator for preventing riding according to the present invention improves the poor response to the hall call on the lower floor and improves the driving efficiency.

Embodiment 1 FIG.
FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram of a boarding prevention elevator according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the car of the riding-preventing elevator according to the first embodiment. FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an operation procedure of the ride-preventing elevator according to the first embodiment.
As shown in FIG. 1, a ride-preventing elevator 1 according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention includes a cage 4 in which the interior of the hoistway 2 is divided into two cage chambers 3 a and 3 b, a destination floor button, a door Car operation panels 5a and 5b installed in the car rooms 3a and 3b, each of which includes a close button, a door open button, and the like, a hall button 8 installed in the hall 7 of the riding prevention elevator 1, and the car rooms 3a and 3b Display device 10 as a display means, a drive device 12 for raising and lowering the elevator hoisting machine 11, and a control device 13 for controlling the drive device 12.

As shown in FIG. 2, the cage 4 is provided with a central dividing wall 16 that is divided into two cage chambers 3 a and 3 b from the doorway 15 toward the left and right in the depth direction. The right cage room 3a divided by the central dividing wall 16 is assigned to the upper floor, and the left basket room 3b is assigned to the lower floor.
In the present invention, the floors at which the ride-preventing elevator 1 can stop are divided by using a floor located in the middle as a boundary, and the floor located above and including the middle floor is below the upper floor and the middle floor. The floor located at is called the lower floor. However, the intermediate floor does not have to be an intermediate in the strict sense, and may be determined in consideration of the number of users and may be changed according to the time zone.
The entrance / exit 15 of the cage 4 on which passengers get on and off is opened / closed by two upper floor entrance / exit doors 17 and a lower floor entrance / exit door 18 that can slide independently.

  This control device 13 is used for the traveling and landing of the cage 4 based on the cage call inputted from the cage operation panels 5a and 5b and the hall call inputted from the hall button 8, the upper floor entrance door 17 and the lower floor floor. Control of opening / closing of the door 18 and lighting of the display 10 are performed.

In the response method with respect to the hall call, first, a response is made to the hall call on the upper floor, and the upper floor entrance door 17 for the right cage room 3a for the upper floor is opened to allow passengers to enter. Next, in response to the hall call on the lower floor, the lower floor entrance / exit door 18 of the left cage room 3b for the lower floor is opened and a passenger is boarded. Then, when arriving at the front floor, the upper floor entrance door 17 for the right cage room 3a is opened, the passenger is lowered, and after a few seconds, the lower floor entrance door 18 for the left basket room 3b is opened.
In addition, when the vehicle stops in response to a hall call on the lower floor, or when passengers are in the car 4 when the elevator stops due to the time difference door opening on the front floor, a message is displayed indicating that the passenger is in the riding-preventing operation. The device 10 is turned on.

Next, the riding prevention driving routine of the riding prevention elevator 1 will be described with reference to FIG.
Assume that the boarding prevention elevator 1 according to the present invention can be stopped on each floor from the first floor to the seventh floor as shown in FIG. 3, for example. The first to fourth floors are classified as lower floors and the fifth to sixth floors are upper floors.
In STEP 1, the basket 4 is stopped at the first floor, which is the front floor, at a certain point in time. In addition, the customer A who goes to the front from the seventh floor calls the hall, and the user B who goes to the front from the third floor calls the hall.
In STEP 2, the control device 13 responds to the hall call of the user A made on the seventh floor belonging to the upper floor, travels the basket 4 to the seventh floor, reaches the seventh floor, and enters the upper floor entrance door 17. Open. Then, the user A gets into the upper floor car room 3a and presses the destination button on the front floor in the upper floor car room 3a.
Next, in STEP 3, the control device 13 responds to the landing call of the user B made on the third floor belonging to the lower floor, travels the basket 4 to the third floor, lands on the third floor, and is used for the lower floor. Open the door 18. In addition, while the user B gets on the control device 13, the control device 13 lights the display indicating that the boarding prevention operation is being performed toward the user A in the upper floor car room 3a, and the car 4 is stopped. Relieve anxiety. Then, the user B gets into the lower floor car room 3b and presses the destination button on the front floor in the lower floor car room 3b.

Next, in STEP 4, the control device 13 responds to the cage call, travels the cage 4 to the front floor, lands on the front floor, and opens the entrance door 17 for the upper floor. In addition, while the user A gets off, the control device 13 lights the display indicating that the boarding prevention operation is being performed toward the user B in the lower floor car room 3b, and the car 4 is stopped. Nevertheless, the anxiety caused by the fact that the lower floor entrance door 18 does not open is eliminated. And user A gets off to the landing on the front floor.
Next, in STEP 5, the lower floor entrance door 18 is opened after a predetermined time has elapsed since the upper floor entrance door 17 is opened. Then, user B gets off at the landing on the front floor.

Thus, the two sets of users on different floors can use the elevator at the same time without facing each other even in the car 4 or when getting off the car 4 to the front floor landing 7.
In addition, compared with the conventional cage call priority operation, it is possible to deal with one hall call on the upper floor and one hall call on the lower floor, so that it is possible to eliminate unfairness with respect to the hall call on the lower floor.
In addition, when landing calls are made on the upper and lower floors at the same time, it is possible to realize twice the driving efficiency as compared to the cage call priority operation.

In STEP2 and STEP3, the user needs to operate the destination buttons on the front floor in the basket rooms 3a and 3b. However, by automatically registering the destination buttons on the front floor in advance, the divided basket rooms 3a and 3b can be registered in advance. There is no need to provide a destination button for each, the cost can be reduced, and the user can be prevented from getting off from other than the front floor.
Further, by dedicating the boarding prevention elevator 1 to the check-out, the car operation panels 5a and 5b can be dispensed with.
