  This is the end of the description of the configuration of the passenger movement status output device using FIG.

<Explanation of data>
Next, characteristic data in the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 4, 5, 6, and 7.

  FIG. 4 shows an example of elevator operation result data 111. A column 401 indicates a time when a state change related to the elevator occurs. The column 402 shows the target number only when the specific elevator number is targeted. Column 403 shows the changed elevator state. The column 404 indicates the up and down direction of the target unit only when the target unit is shown in the column 402. A column 405 indicates the position (floor) of the target car if the target car is shown in the column 402, and a position (floor) where the state change event has occurred in other cases. A column 406 shows an estimated value of the number of passengers of the target unit only when the target unit is shown in the column 402. It is assumed that the elevator operation record data is recorded in the order of the times in the column 401.

  Record 411 indicates that the call button for moving upward in the elevator hall on the first floor was pressed at time 8:49:04. Record 412 indicates that Unit 1 is going upward at time 8:49:35, opens on the first floor, and the number of passengers at that time is zero. Record 413 indicates that Unit 1 is going upwards at 8:49:45, and is closed on the first floor, and the number of passengers at that time is four.

  FIG. 5 shows intermediate data when the elevator waiting time and waiting number are calculated by the passenger elevator waiting time calculation unit 102 from the elevator operation result data 111. Column 501 indicates the floor on which the elevator waiting time is calculated, column 502 indicates the waiting time, column 503 indicates the traveling direction of the elevator, and column 504 indicates the number of people waiting. The waiting time is the time from when the call button in the direction to move in the elevator hall is pressed until the elevator that opens in the same direction as the pressed button first opens. This waiting time is the waiting time of the passenger who first arrived at the elevator hall, and is considered to be the maximum waiting time. Here, assuming that the passengers arrive at regular intervals, the average value of the waiting time may be a half value. The waiting number is assumed to be the difference between the number of passengers when the elevator is opened and the number of passengers when the elevator is closed.

  FIG. 5 shows an example of intermediate data when the passenger elevator waiting time calculation unit 102 shown in FIG. 1 calculates the elevator waiting time for the passenger and the waiting time for each arrival and departure of the elevator corresponding to the call. Print the number of people waiting.

The calculation method of each record in FIG. 5 will be described with reference to FIG.
Record 511 waits from the time from when the elevator call button is pressed at the time of record 411 until the elevator No. 1 arrives and opens at the time of record 412 in the elevator operation record data 111 of FIG. 41 seconds are calculated, and four waiting persons are calculated from the difference between the number of passengers at the time of door opening of the record 412 and the number of passengers at the time of door closing in the record 413.

  The record 512 has a waiting time from the time from when the elevator call button is pressed at the time of the record 414 until the elevator No. 2 arrives and opens at the time of the record 417 in the elevator operation result data 111 of FIG. 27 seconds are calculated, and two waiting persons are calculated from the difference between the number of passengers at the time of opening of the record 417 and the number of passengers at the time of closing of the record 419.

  FIG. 15 shows an example of passenger elevator waiting time data that is calculated and output by the passenger elevator waiting time calculation unit 102, and this data is calculated from the temporary data of FIG. A statistical index value of waiting time is recorded for each elevator bank and for each stop floor. If the statistical index value here is an average value, 1501 indicates that the average waiting time when using a low-rise bank on the first floor is 43 seconds, and 1502 indicates when using a high-rise bank on the first floor. The average waiting time is 40 seconds.

  FIG. 14 shows an example of passenger floor movement time data calculated and output by the passenger floor movement time calculation unit 103. This data is calculated from the temporary data of FIG. A statistical index value of the travel time between floors from the reference floor to each stop floor is recorded for each elevator bank. Here, assuming that the reference floor is the first floor and the statistical index value is the average value, 1401 indicates that the average travel time from the first floor to the second floor in the low-rise bank is 16 seconds. Reference numeral 1402 indicates that the average travel time from the first floor to the third floor in the low-rise bank is 31 seconds. 1403 indicates that the average travel time from the first floor to the seventh floor in the high-rise bank is 39 seconds. Reference numeral 1404 indicates that the average travel time from the first floor to the eighth floor in the high-rise bank is 54 seconds. The reason why the travel time from the 1st floor to the 2nd floor and the 1st floor to the 3rd floor has not increased linearly is that the travel from the 1st floor to the 3rd floor is stopped from the 1st floor to the 2nd floor by a passenger boarding an elevator. If you move directly to the 3rd floor, or if you move to the 3rd floor after stopping on the 2nd floor, the travel time will vary depending on the stopping time on the 2nd floor and the acceleration / deceleration time for stopping on the 2nd floor. Because it comes. Details of the travel time calculation method in the passenger floor travel time calculation unit 103 will be described later.

  FIG. 6 shows an example of intermediate data when the passenger's floor travel time calculation unit 103 calculates the passenger's floor travel time from the elevator operation record data 111. Data representing the number of people and travel time is shown. The column 601 indicates the departure floor of the inter-level movement, the column 602 indicates the arrival floor of the inter-level movement, the column 603 indicates the travel time between the floors using the passenger elevator, and the column 604 indicates the number of passengers moving. . The travel time between the floors may include a door opening / closing time and a waiting time in the elevator in addition to the elevator operation time.

  The number of passengers is the number of passengers when the door is closed on the departure floor or the number of persons getting off when the door is opened on the arrival floor.

A method of calculating each record in FIG. 6 will be described with reference to FIG.
Record 611 is the elevator operation result data 111 of FIG. 4, from the time from the time when the first unit is closed at the time of record 413 and departs from the first floor, arrives at the second floor at the time of record 415 and opens. The driving time is 10 seconds, and the number of passengers at that time is 4 people.

  Record 612 is based on the elevator operation result data 111 of FIG. 4 from the time from when the first unit is closed at the time of record 416 and departs from the second floor, arrives at the fourth floor at the time of record 418 and opens. A driving time of 15 seconds is calculated, and the number of passengers at that time is one.

  Record 613 is the elevator operation result data 111 of FIG. 4, from the time from when Unit 2 is closed at the time of record 419 and departs from the first floor, arrives at the fourth floor at the time of record 421 and opens. A driving time of 20 seconds is calculated, and the number of passengers at that time is two.

  Record 614 is the elevator operation record data 111 of FIG. 4, from the time from the time when the first unit is closed at the time of record 420 and departs from the 4th floor, arrives at the first floor at the time of record 423 and opens. A driving time of 20 seconds is calculated, and the number of passengers at that time is 0.

  It is the figure which showed an example of the passenger movement flow line data of FIG. The movement flow data is data indicating a connection relationship in a moving network in a building such as an elevator hall and a building entrance or an office entrance. FIG. 7 shows the movement flow data of passengers in a multi-bank type building, and shows that it is possible to move directly from the first floor entrance to the low-rise bank and the high-rise bank. Here, only the entrance and the elevator bank are subject to movement flow, but various facilities and equipment such as a cafeteria, observation room, store, toilet, and smoking room provided in the building may be targeted. Instead of inputting as data as in FIG. 7, explicit input may be omitted by considering the movement flow line in the processing unit or the like.

  This is the end of the description of the data.

<Description of processing unit>
A method for calculating a statistical index value of passenger movement between floors will be described with reference to FIG.

  As described in the description of FIG. 14, the time for moving between floors by an elevator varies greatly depending on the stoppage of the intermediate floor. FIG. 16 shows a graph comparing the operation time when the direct operation is performed from the first floor to the third floor and when stopping on the second floor, and the change in the operation time due to the stop on the middle floor will be described. The vertical axis 1602 of the graph indicates the position and the floor in the height direction, and the horizontal axis 1601 indicates the time. When leaving the first floor at the time of 1603 and moving to the third floor by direct operation, it arrives at the third floor at the time of 1604. On the other hand, when stopping on the second floor, it takes time to travel in each period of deceleration for stopping on the second floor, stopping time on the second floor, and acceleration for moving from the second floor to the third floor. It can be seen that whether or not the elevator stops on the middle floor depends on the destinations of other passengers on the same elevator, and the travel time of the passenger changes depending on the number of stops on the middle floor. This is the end of the explanation of the change in driving time due to the stoppage of the middle floor of the elevator.

  When considering the average travel time of inter-floor travel, it is necessary to consider the number of stops on this intermediate floor. Therefore, consider driving patterns that represent a combination of stoppages on the way just before stopping on the arrival floor, and calculate the travel time of each drive pattern from the average transfer time when driving directly from the stoppage to the destination floor, and from the departure floor The average travel time from the departure floor to the destination floor is determined by the weighted average of the number of people moving from the halfway stop floor to the destination floor.

  As an example, FIG. 2 shows an operation pattern from the first floor to the fourth floor in the operation pattern from the first floor to the third floor. The movement indicated by the solid arrow indicates direct operation, and the movement indicated by the dotted arrow indicates that the vehicle may stop on the middle floor.

  As described above, there are two driving patterns from the first floor to the third floor, and the average travel time from the first floor to the third floor is obtained by a weighted average of the number of people used for the travel time of each driving pattern. More specific calculation methods of the average travel time from the first floor to the third floor are the average travel time in the movement 214 from the first floor to the third floor, the average travel time of the movement 223 from the first floor to the second floor, and from the second floor. The sum of the average travel times of the movements 215 up to the third floor is calculated by taking a weighted average according to the number of passengers arriving at the third floor in each movement.

  Similarly, there are three driving patterns from the first floor to the fourth floor, and the average travel time from the first floor to the fourth floor is obtained by a weighted average of the number of people used for the travel time of each driving pattern. More specific calculation methods of the average travel time from the first floor to the fourth floor are the average travel time in the movement 211 from the first floor to the fourth floor, the average travel time of the movement 221 from the first floor to the second floor, and from the second floor. In each movement, the total of the average movement time of the movement 212 up to the fourth floor, the average movement time of the movement 222 from the first floor to the third floor, and the average movement time of the movement 213 from the third floor to the fourth floor are It is calculated by taking the weighted average according to the number of people who arrived on the 4th floor.

  As a precondition for the calculation of the average travel time, the travel time of each floor is independent only when there is no overlap between moving floors, such as moving from the first floor to the third floor and moving from the third floor to the fifth floor. Assume that there is. Based on this assumption, the average travel time from the departure floor to the arrival floor can be calculated by adding the average travel time from the departure floor to the intermediate stop floor and the average travel time from the intermediate stop floor to the arrival floor. Assuming that they are independent, not only the average but also the variance can be obtained by the same procedure. The average travel time from the departure floor to the intermediate stop floor, which is required under the assumption of the calculation, is the average travel time from the departure floor to the arrival floor (the intermediate stop floor) with the intermediate stop floor as the target floor. It may be calculated recursively, or the average movement time may be calculated in order with the calculation order as the arrival floor from the reference floor.

  FIG. 17 shows a summary of this calculation method as a recurrence formula.

  FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an outline of processing and data flow for one embodiment of the passenger movement status output device of the present invention. Processing and data flow will be described with reference to FIG.

  The in-floor movement time calculation unit 101 reads the distance 302 from the entrance to the elevator hall from the layout data 111, and calculates the inside walking speed from the distance and a preset average walking speed of the person (for example, 4 km / h). The travel time 303 is calculated and output to the travel diagram output unit 104.

  The passenger elevator waiting time calculation unit 102 reads the elevator operation result data 112, calculates the passenger elevator waiting time 304 through the conversion to the intermediate data shown in FIG. Output.

  The passenger's floor travel time calculation unit 103 reads the elevator operation result data 112, calculates the passenger's floor travel time 305 through the conversion to the intermediate data shown in FIG. 6, and the travel diagram output unit. To 104.

  The movement diagram output unit 104 includes an intra-floor travel time 303 output from the intra-floor travel time calculation unit 101, a passenger elevator waiting time 304 output from the passenger elevator waiting time calculation unit 102, and a passenger floor. Passenger inter-floor travel time 305 output from travel time calculation unit 103 is input, and is compiled into the intra-building travel time table, which is the intermediate data shown in FIG. 14. From this intra-building travel time table, travel diagram 306 is further displayed. Is drawn and output to the movement diagram data 113.

  That is, the travel time calculation unit (the intra-floor travel time calculation unit 101, the elevator waiting time calculation unit 102, and the inter-floor travel time calculation unit 103) of the passenger movement status output device 10 allows the user to enter the building for each user. A first travel time (moving time in the floor) required to move to the elevator hall from the first time, a waiting time from arrival at the elevator hall to the elevator hall (passenger waiting time for passengers), and the elevator Obtain the second travel time (passenger travel time between passengers) from boarding to arrival at the destination floor, and collect information on the first travel time, waiting time and second travel time The travel time statistical information of the user from the entrance to the building until the arrival at the destination floor is calculated, and the display unit (moving diagram comparison display unit 105) displays the total travel time. And the travel time calculation unit calculates travel time statistical information in the first elevator configuration and travel time information in the second elevator configuration, and the display unit displays travel time statistical information in the first elevator configuration, The travel time statistical information in the elevator configuration of 2 is also displayed.

  In addition, the travel time calculation unit calculates a maximum value, an average value, or a variance value of the total time of the user's first travel time, waiting time, and second travel time information as travel time statistical information. Also good.

  In addition, the first elevator configuration is a configuration in which an elevator goes straight from the reference floor to the destination floor, and the second elevator configuration is an intermediate floor when the elevator operates from the reference floor to the destination floor. May also be configured (an example will be described later with reference to FIG. 10).

  In addition, the travel time calculation unit uses the elevator operation time when the elevator goes straight from the reference floor to the destination floor, the value weighted by multiplying the number of users, and when the elevator operates from the reference floor to the destination floor. In addition, the total of the travel time when stopping at the intermediate floor and the weighted value by multiplying the number of users who have moved through each intermediate floor is used directly from each intermediate floor and the reference floor to the destination floor. By dividing by the total number of passengers, the average value of the passenger moving from the reference floor to the destination floor may be calculated by obtaining a weighted average of the travel time from the reference floor to the destination floor.

  In addition, the display unit changes the color and / or line type so that it can be identified by the passenger elevator waiting time indicated by the travel diagram, the travel time of each floor of the elevator, and the type of door opening time on each floor. You may do it.

  Moreover, with respect to the first elevator configuration, the second elevator configuration may be one in which any one or more of the elevator layout, the number of elevators, the layout specification, and the passenger movement demand are changed.

  In addition, the display unit presets one or more reference values for the time required to change between any two points and states, and compares the time required for the movement diagram with the reference value. Then, one or both of the color and the line type may be changed and displayed.

  Further, in the travel time calculation unit, the second travel time is calculated based on the operation result data acquired from the operation management system (not shown), and the operation result data is data on the result of the physical operation of the elevator. One or both of the data of the actual operation of the elevator such as a computer simulation may be used (details will be described later in the second embodiment).

  In addition, the first elevator configuration and the second elevator configuration may be either a sky lobby type building that is assumed to move by moving an elevator or a multi-bank type that uses different elevator banks depending on the destination floor. Included (details will be described later in Example 3).

  This is the end of the description of the processing and the data flow.

<Output and effect>
The movement diagram 306 output by the movement diagram output unit 104 will be described with reference to FIGS. 9, 10, 11, and 13.

  The graph of FIG. 9 is a movement diagram showing movement from the building entrance to an office entrance or the like that can be a moving destination on each floor. The vertical axis 951 represents the position (floor) in the height direction, and the horizontal axis represents the travel time from the building entrance, where the building entrance is 0. The time of this travel diagram is a statistical index value such as the average value or the maximum value of the travel time of each passenger.

  When moving to a lower floor, 901 indicates the building entrance. Departing from the building entrance, 902 indicates arrival at the elevator hall on the lower floor. The time from 901 to 902 represents the travel time from the building entrance to the lower floor elevator hall, and is drawn using the intra-floor travel time 303 calculated by the intra-floor travel time calculation unit 101. The elevator hall waits for the arrival of the elevator, and 903 indicates the arrival of the elevator. Here, the period from 902 to 903 represents the time from the arrival of the elevator hall on the lower floor to the arrival of the elevator, and the passenger elevator waiting time 304 calculated by the passenger elevator waiting time calculation unit 102 is used. And draw. After the elevator arrives at 903, the user gets into the elevator and 904 indicates the departure of the elevator. The elevator departs at 904, 905 indicates the arrival of the elevator on the second floor, and 906 indicates the departure of the elevator after the passenger boarding / exiting on the second floor. For the floors that will continue to stop, the departures and arrivals on each floor from 907 to 914 up to the top floor are shown in order. Lines indicating departure and arrival in the previous period are drawn using the passenger's floor travel time 305 calculated by the passenger's floor travel time calculation unit 103. In addition, after the elevator stops on each floor, the passenger who got off the elevator arrives at the destination on the floor. In the case of the second floor, the passenger gets off the elevator between 905 and 906, and 915 indicates arrival at the second floor destination. The arrival at the third floor destination is indicated by 916. Thereafter, 917 to 919 indicate arrival at the destination of each floor. The line from the elevator stop in the previous period to the arrival of the destination on each floor is calculated using the intra-floor travel time 303 calculated by the intra-floor travel time calculation unit 101.

  When moving to a higher floor, 921 indicates arrival at the elevator hall on the higher floor. In order to avoid overlapping with the movement diagram of the lower floors, here, they are shown with a slight shift in the vertical axis direction, but they may be displayed overlapping the lower floors. The elevator hall waits for an elevator arrival, and 922 indicates the elevator arrival. After the elevator arrives at 922, the user gets into the elevator and 923 indicates the departure of the elevator. The elevator departs at 923, 924 indicates the arrival of the elevator on the 7th floor, and 925 indicates the departure of the elevator after the passengers get on and off the 7th floor. For the floors that stop after that, the departure and arrival at each stop floor from 926 to 931 to the top floor are shown in order. As with the lower floors, after the elevator stops on each floor, the passengers who get off the elevator also arrive at the destination on the floor, and 932 to 935 indicate the arrival at the destination on each floor. The destination floor arrival point or the destination arrival point of each floor may be connected by a line without distinguishing the elevator bank such as the lower floor and the higher floor.

  FIG. 10 is a diagram in which the movement diagram shown in FIG. 9 is simplified and only the arrival time at each floor is shown. With the exception of detailed information, this allows you to show only the time that you can reach each floor. In comparison of movement diagrams, which will be described later, it may be easier to compare by removing fine information.

  FIG. 11 is a diagram in which the size information of the number of people moved is added to the movement diagram shown in FIG. The thickness of the line segment is changed according to the number of passengers traveling in the section for each travel time and elevator waiting time. For example, the thickness of the line segment from 1122 to 1123 indicates that the number of passengers using the elevator moving from the first floor to the seventh floor is 2500 or more and 5000 or less per hour. From this figure, it can be confirmed where the travel time is long and the number of users is large. That is, the movement diagram comparison display unit 105 (display unit) is configured to display the first movement time (floor transfer time), waiting time (passenger elevator waiting time), and second movement time based on the number of users. Weighting may be performed for each (passenger travel time between floors).

  FIG. 13 is a diagram showing a movement diagram when going from each floor to the building entrance. For example, it is used when evaluating the flow of people heading to the entrance of a building, such as during lunch hours and work hours. The vertical axis is the height position (floor), but the horizontal axis shows the required time from each point to the building entrance with the building entrance 1300 set to 0. For example, move from 1311 to the 5th floor The travel time from the start point to the building entrance is 128 seconds, and 1312 indicates that the travel time after getting on the elevator going downward from the third floor is 66 seconds.

An example in which the result of comparing one or more movement diagrams by the movement diagram display comparing unit 105 is output is shown in FIG. A comparison result diagram of the movement diagrams will be described with reference to FIG.
1801 shows a one-bank system movement diagram that provides elevators that stop on all floors, and targets lower floors in a multi-bank system where elevators that stop on lower floors and elevators that stop on higher floors are installed separately. A movement diagram is shown at 1802, and a movement diagram for a higher floor is shown at 1803. Here, as a result of comparative evaluation without changing the number and specifications of elevators in each method, it can be seen that the time required for the multi-bank method to arrive at the destination is shorter than that in the one-bank method at all the stop floors. For example, it can be confirmed that 1812 indicating arrival at the sixth floor in the multi-bank method is the first arrival than 1811 indicating arrival at the sixth floor in the one-bank method.

  In this example, the operation methods were changed and the examples were compared.However, the operation methods were the same and only the elevator specifications were changed, or the movement diagrams calculated by changing the number of elevator users and usage conditions were compared. May be. By comparing the movement diagrams of various cases in this way, it is possible to intuitively confirm how much the movement time to each floor has improved in each case.

  In addition, using the movement diagram calculated from the actual operation data of the actual elevator installed in the building and computer simulation, the elevator operation is simulated under the same or different conditions. You may compare with the movement diagram computed from performance data. By comparing the movement diagram calculated from the actual operation data of the actual machine and the movement diagram calculated under the same conditions using a computer simulation or the like, it is possible to evaluate the prediction accuracy of intra-building traffic by the computer simulation.

  In other words, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to output a movement diagram in which the time required for passengers to move within the building is output by using the operation result data of the elevator as an input. Can be visualized. Further, by comparing a plurality of movement diagrams calculated under different conditions, it is possible to compare the time required for passenger movement in the entire building. In particular, by comparing the movement diagram calculated by computer simulation with the movement diagram calculated by operating the elevator, the accuracy of the computer simulation can be reproduced regardless of the difference in elevator operation. It becomes possible to evaluate by the travel time.

  An embodiment of a passenger movement status output apparatus and method according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. The basic apparatus configuration, data format, data and processing flow, and the like are the same as those in the first embodiment, and will not be described.

  In the present embodiment, elevator operation result data 111 as input is different from that in the first embodiment. In this embodiment, when the elevator is on board, the elevator is not called by pressing the upper and lower buttons, but when the button on the target floor is pressed from the terminal installed in the elevator hall or the vicinity thereof, the elevator stops at the pressed floor. The elevator movement result data of the destination floor reservation method of the method instructed is used.

  Below, only the operation result data of the elevator of the said destination floor reservation system are demonstrated using FIG. FIG. 12 shows an example of operation result data of a destination floor reservation type elevator. In the destination floor reservation method, each passenger who uses the elevator enters the elevator hall after arriving at the elevator hall. From the elevator operation results data of this method, each elevator user arrives at the elevator hall. The starting time, departure floor and destination floor are recorded. The time when the terminal is operated is recorded in column 401, the destination floor to be input to the terminal is recorded in column 1204, the floor where the terminal is operated (that is, the departure floor) is recorded in column 1207, and the terminal takes passengers The elevator number to be indicated is recorded in 1205.

  Record 1211 indicates that a passenger heading from the first floor to the second floor at the time 8:49:04 operates the terminal and is instructed to board the first car. Record 1212 indicates that a passenger heading from the first floor to the fourth floor at time 8:49:10 operated the terminal and was instructed to board the first car.

  The passenger who is instructed to board the first car by the terminal operation gets on the first car that arrives most recently. It can be seen that the elevator on which the passengers of the records 1211 and 1212 get arrives from the record 1215 at time 8:49:35. This is the end of the explanation of the operation result data.

  A method for calculating the passenger's elevator waiting time from the above-described operation result data will be described. The difference from the time when the terminal is operated to the time when the elevator arrives is calculated as a waiting time for all passengers who get on the elevator, and a statistical index such as an average value is calculated. The calculated result is output in the passenger elevator waiting time format shown in FIG. At this time, it may be calculated via the data of FIG. This completes the description of the method for calculating the passenger elevator waiting time.

  With the passenger movement status output apparatus and method according to the present embodiment, it is possible to output a movement diagram that reflects the waiting time of the passenger in the personality.

(803) shows that it is necessary to transfer to the high-rise bank (805) by transferring to the shuttle bank (804).

  In the building of FIG. 19, a shuttle elevator that operates from the first floor to the seventh floor without stopping is installed, and the seventh floor corresponds to the sky lobby floor. On the 7th floor, the sky lobby floor is provided with an elevator bank that stops from the 7th floor to the 11th floor, and an elevator bank that stops from the 7th floor and the 12th floor to the 15th floor. 1901 indicates the arrival of the first floor of the shuttle elevator, and 1902 indicates the arrival of the shuttle elevator to the seventh floor sky lobby floor. 1903 indicates the arrival of passengers in the elevator hall of the elevator bank that stops from the 7th floor to the 11th floor, and 1902 to 1903 indicate the movement from the passenger arrival to the elevator hall to the elevator hall. Drawing is performed using the movement time 303 in the floor calculated by the time calculation unit 101. 1904 shows the arrival of the elevator of the elevator bank which stops from the 7th floor to the 11th floor. Reference numerals 1903 to 1904 represent the passenger's elevator waiting time from the arrival at the elevator hall to the arrival of the elevator, and are drawn using the passenger's elevator waiting time 304 calculated by the passenger's elevator waiting time calculation unit 102. To do. 1905 indicates the arrival of passengers in the elevator hall of the elevator bank that stops on the 7th and 12th floors and the 15th floor, and 1902 to 1905 indicate the movement from the passengers to the elevator hall after the arrival on the 7th floor. The drawing is performed using the in-floor movement time 303 calculated by the in-floor movement time calculation unit 101. 1906 indicates the arrival of the elevator of the elevator bank that stops from the 7th floor and the 12th floor to the 15th floor, and 1905 to 1906 indicates the waiting time of the passenger's elevator from the arrival of the elevator hall to the arrival of the elevator. The drawing is performed using the passenger elevator waiting time 304 calculated by the passenger elevator waiting time calculation unit 102.

  This concludes the explanation of the movement diagram in the sky lobby building.
