Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In addition, in principle, the same elements are given the same reference numerals in all the figures. Further, descriptions of parts having the same functions will be omitted. Note that the configuration described below is merely an example, and the embodiments of the present invention are not intended to be limited to the following specific embodiments.

<Configuration and functions of elevator maintenance support system>
The configuration and functions of the elevator maintenance support system will be explained with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the overall configuration and functions of an elevator maintenance support system 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. In addition, in this example, the "non-stop" state of the elevator means that, for example, an electronic key equipped with an IC chip, or a specification such as face recognition or vein recognition that does not allow the elevator to call for a car unless it is approved. It means something.

As shown in FIG. 1, the elevator maintenance support system 1 of this embodiment includes a center device 10, a maintenance terminal 20, an elevator 30, and a wide area network 40.

That is, the center device 10, the maintenance terminal 20, and the elevator 30 are connected via the wide area network 40, and are configured to be capable of data communication using each other's transmitting and receiving sections.

[Configuration and functions of center device 10]
First, the configuration and functions of the center device 10 will be explained. The center device 10 is a management device that integrally manages elevators located at a plurality of locations, and is realized by, for example, a server and a database.

The center device 10 is generally installed in a location remote from a place where an inspection worker performs maintenance work, for example, in a building of a maintenance company to which the inspection worker belongs.

As shown in FIG. 1, the center device 10 includes a transmitting/receiving unit 11, a work schedule planning unit 12, a display unit 13, a worker GPS information processing unit 14, a non-stop temporary release mode execution determination unit 15, a customer notification unit 16, and It is configured to include a storage section 17.

The transmitting/receiving unit 11 is a communication interface, and transmits and receives data between the maintenance terminal 20 and the elevator 30 via the wide area network 40 .

The work schedule planning unit 12 plans the contents of work instructions indicating when and which site the inspection worker should visit and what kind of inspection work should be performed on the elevator to be inspected during the inspection work of the inspection worker. A work schedule plan by the work schedule planning unit 12 is created by an inspection worker or a manager who manages the inspection worker. Information on the created work schedule is stored in the storage unit 17 as a work schedule 173. Note that when the administrator creates a work schedule using the work schedule planning section 12, the administrator refers to the elevator specification information 171 stored in the storage section 17. Elevator specification information 171 is information related to product specifications such as elevator model, number of floors, non-stop floor setting, address of the building where the elevator is installed, GPS information of the building itself, etc., and differs for each elevator. .

The display unit 13 is, for example, a liquid crystal display, and in addition to a display function, it also has a keyboard function (input function) that allows numerical and character information to be input, like a tablet computer or a smart phone.

The worker GPS information processing section 14 receives the position information obtained by the GPS information acquisition section 23 of the maintenance terminal 20 carried by the inspection worker via the transmission/reception section 11, and stores the worker GPS information 172 in the storage section 17. Store as . GPS information transmitted from a plurality of maintenance terminals 20 carried by an inspection worker can be processed at once.

The non-stop temporary release mode execution determination unit 15 determines whether temporary release of the non-stop setting is necessary based on the content planned by the work schedule planning unit 12 and the position information of the inspection worker. Note that the non-stop temporary release mode execution determination unit 15 determines whether or not non-stop temporary release is necessary according to a sequence diagram shown in FIG. 2, which will be described later. Further, the determination by the non-stop temporary release mode execution determining unit 15 is started by the inspection start notification received from the maintenance terminal 20. This inspection start notification includes the floor on which the inspection worker entered the building (information about the floor where the inspection worker is located), which was input on the maintenance terminal 20. Then, the non-stop temporary release mode execution determination unit 15 determines that it is necessary to temporarily release the set non-stop floor, and instructs the elevator 30 to perform the non-stop temporary release mode when temporarily releasing the non-stop setting. Send. This command includes information on the floor where the non-stop setting is to be canceled.

The customer notification means 16 maintains the elevator when the non-stop temporary release mode execution determination unit 15 determines that temporary release of the non-stop setting is necessary and a command for the non-stop temporary release mode is issued to the elevator 30. This is a means of notifying the building owner, building manager, passengers, etc. who have a contract for the maintenance of the elevator that the non-stop setting has been canceled for the purpose of the elevator. For example, building owners, building managers, passengers, etc. will be notified via an application installed on their smartphones or via email, along with the fact that the inspection has started. There are cases where the non-stop setting is made by the owner of the building or the building manager, so it is important to make this known.

The storage unit 17 is a memory that records software and data such as control programs. The storage unit 17 stores elevator specification information 171, worker GPS information 172, work schedule 173, and the like.

As mentioned above, the elevator specification information 171 includes information related to product specifications such as the elevator model, number of floors, non-stop floor setting information, the address of the building where the elevator is installed, GPS information of the building itself, etc. and differs from elevator to elevator.

As already mentioned, the worker GPS information 172 is the GPS information transmitted from the maintenance terminal 20, and is stored together with the time when the GPS was acquired.

As already mentioned, the work schedule 173 is a specific work schedule planned by the administrator using the work schedule planning unit 12 and provided to the maintenance terminal 20 carried by the inspection worker.

[Configuration and functions of maintenance terminal 20]
Next, the configuration and functions of the maintenance terminal 20 will be explained. The maintenance terminal 20 is a terminal carried by an inspection worker who performs inspection and maintenance work on an elevator during work.

The maintenance terminal 20 includes a transmitting/receiving section 21 , an operation display section 22 , a GPS information acquisition section 23 , an elevator information acquisition section 24 , an inspection start communication transmission section 25 , and a storage section 26 .

The transmitting/receiving unit 21 is a communication interface, and transmits and receives data to and from the center device 10 and the elevator 30 via the wide area network 40.

The operation display unit 22 is, for example, a liquid crystal display, and in addition to a display function, it also has a keyboard function (input function) that allows numerical and character information to be input, like a tablet computer or a smart phone.

The GPS information acquisition unit 23 has a function of acquiring position information of the maintenance terminal 20 using a GPS (Global Positioning System) sensor, and is standardly installed in smart phones in recent years. The acquired GPS information is sequentially transmitted to the center device 10 via the transmitter/receiver 21 as it changes.

The elevator information acquisition unit 24 transmits a command to the elevator 30 to acquire information such as car position and trouble information via the transmission/reception unit 21, and the acquired data is transmitted to the operation display unit 22. You can refer to it at

The inspection start notification sending unit 25 sends an inspection start notification for the elevator 30 to the center via the sending/receiving unit 21 when the inspection worker operates the operation display unit 22 to cancel the non-stop floor or start the inspection. to the device 10. At this time, the inspection worker inputs the floor on which he/she entered the building (information on the floor where the inspection worker is located) on the operation display section 22, and the information on the floor on which he/she entered the building is transmitted to the center device 10 along with the inspection start notification.

The storage unit 26 is a memory that records software and data such as control programs. A work schedule 261 is stored in the storage unit 26. The work schedule 261 is a work schedule for a site visited by an inspection worker among the work schedules 173 stored in the storage unit 17 of the center device 10, and is sent from the center device 10 before the start of work, such as the day before the work day. It is automatically downloaded to the maintenance terminal 20.

[Configuration and functions of elevator 30]
Next, the configuration of the elevator 30 and its functions will be explained. The configuration of the elevator 30 shown here is a configuration as a control device that controls the operation of the elevator 30, which is an elevator, so a description of the mechanical configuration of the elevator 30 will be omitted.

The elevator 30 includes a transmitting/receiving section 31, an elevator control program 32, a non-stop temporary release mode execution section 33, and an elevator control command processing section 34.

The transmitting/receiving unit 31 is a communication interface, and transmits and receives data to and from the center device 10 and the maintenance terminal 20 via the wide area network 40 .

The elevator control program 32 is a control program that controls the motor (not shown) of the elevator 30 to raise and lower the car.

When the non-stop temporary release mode execution unit 33 receives the non-stop temporary release mode execution command transmitted from the center device 10 via the transmitting/receiving unit 31, the non-stop temporary release mode execution unit 33 temporarily releases the non-stop setting for the elevator control program 32. Execute. Note that the temporary cancellation of the non-stop setting in the non-stop temporary release mode execution unit 33 is performed according to a sequence diagram shown in FIG. 3, which will be described later.

The elevator control command processing unit 34 executes a control command requested for the elevator 30 on the elevator control program 32. Here, the control commands are commands to acquire elevator information (car position, trouble information, etc.) transmitted from the maintenance terminal 20, and button operation signals that specify the destination floor on the driving panel installed in the car. etc. apply.

The elevator maintenance support system 1 of this embodiment has the above configuration and functions.

<Hardware configuration of elevator maintenance support system 1>
FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a hardware configuration common to each of the center device 10, maintenance terminal 20, and elevator 30 that constitute the elevator maintenance support system 1.

The center device 10, maintenance terminal 20, and elevator 30 described in FIG. It consists of a storage 54.

The CPU 51 reads software program codes that implement the functions of the center device 10, the maintenance terminal 20, and the elevator 30 from the ROM 52, and executes arithmetic processing. Variables and the like generated during arithmetic processing executed by the CPU 51 are temporarily written into the RAM 53 . The CPU 51 realizes the functions of the center device 10, the maintenance terminal 20, and the elevator 30 by executing program codes recorded in the ROM 52.

The nonvolatile storage 54 is composed of a nonvolatile memory such as an SSD (Solid State Drive). This nonvolatile storage 54 stores control programs, data, etc. necessary for the operation of the CPU 51. Further, the nonvolatile storage 54 corresponds to the storage unit 17 of the center device 10, the storage unit 26 of the maintenance terminal 20, and also corresponds to a storage unit (not shown) provided in the elevator 30.

Further, the center device 10, the maintenance terminal 20, and the elevator 30 include an input section 55 and an output section 56. The administrator inputs work schedules and the like through the input unit 55 of the center device 10 . Furthermore, the output section 56 of the center device 10 corresponds to, for example, the display section 13 in FIG.

In the maintenance terminal 20, the input section 55 and the output section 56 correspond to the operation display section 22 in FIG.

Note that in the elevator 30 shown in FIG. 1, the input section 55 and the output section 56 as hardware are not necessarily required.

Furthermore, the center device 10, the maintenance terminal 20, and the elevator 30 are provided with a communication interface (communication section IF) 57. As the communication interface 57, for example, a NIC (Network Interface Card) or the like is used. This communication interface 57 corresponds to the transmitting/receiving section 11 of the center device 10, the transmitting/receiving section 21 of the maintenance terminal 20, and the transmitting/receiving section 31 of the elevator 30.

<Decision to cancel non-stop floor>
FIG. 2 is a sequence diagram of the elevator maintenance support system 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 shows a state in which the center device 10 of the elevator maintenance support system 1 determines whether to cancel the non-stop floor status based on the work schedule 173 and the worker GPS information 172. Further, in FIG. 2, the flow of determination of non-stop floor cancellation is divided into charts for inspection workers, maintenance terminals, elevators, and center equipment.

The flow in which the center device 10 determines whether to cancel the non-stop floor will be described below with reference to FIG. 2 in conjunction with the functional block diagram of FIG. 1. Note that each process is executed by the CPU 51 provided in the center device 10, the maintenance terminal 20, and the elevator 30.

As shown in FIG. 2, the center device 10 transmits the work schedule 173 stored in the storage unit 17 to the maintenance terminal 20 (step S1). The work schedule 173 is created in the work schedule planning section 12 by the inspection worker or the administrator who manages the inspection worker by the day before the work day, and is automatically downloaded to the maintenance terminal 20 after creation.

The maintenance terminal 20 that has received the work schedule 173 receives the work schedule 173 and stores it in the storage unit 26 as a work schedule 261 (step S2). The work schedule 261 can be referred to by the inspection worker on the operation display section 22 of the maintenance terminal 20 during his/her rounds.

Inspection workers enter the building to perform inspection and maintenance work on elevators. At this time, if the floor of the elevator on the entrance floor is set to non-stop, the inspection worker cannot get into the elevator and therefore cannot start the inspection. Therefore, in order to cancel the non-stop setting, the maintenance terminal 20 is operated to perform an inspection start operation (step S3). At this time, the operation display section 22 of the maintenance terminal 20 is operated to select the site where the work is to be performed and the floor to enter.

In the maintenance terminal 20, the GPS information acquisition unit 23 sequentially acquires GPS information in background processing, and transmits it to the center device 10 each time it is acquired (step S4). The worker GPS information processing unit 14 of the center device 10 that has received the GPS information stores the GPS information in the storage unit 17 as the worker GPS information 172 (step S5).

When the inspection worker performs an inspection start operation on the operation display unit 22 of the maintenance terminal 20 (Yes in step S6), the inspection start notification transmission unit 25 of the maintenance terminal 20 notifies the center device 10 of the inspection start operation. Send initiation communication. Here, if the inspection start operation is not performed (No in step S6), the maintenance terminal 20 is in a standby state until the inspection start operation is performed. The inspection start notification sent by the inspection start notification transmitting unit 25 includes information about the work site and the entrance floor selected by the inspection worker on the operation display unit 22.

The center device 10 that has received the inspection start notification from the maintenance terminal 20 starts the process of the non-stop temporary release mode execution determination unit 15 (step S8). The non-stop/temporary release mode execution determination unit 15 first uses the customer notification means 16 to notify the owner of the building, the manager who manages the building, and the passengers that the inspection will start (step S9). By giving this notice, everyone will be informed that the elevator cannot be used until the inspection is completed.

Next, the non-stop temporary release mode execution determination unit 15 determines the scheduled inspection time planned in the work schedule 173 and elevator specification information based on the work site information included in the inspection start notification sent from the maintenance terminal 20. The GPS information of the building itself included in 171 is extracted. Then, it is determined that the inspection worker is at the work site to perform the inspection within the scheduled inspection time (step S10). The presence of the inspection worker at the work site where the inspection is to be performed can be determined by comparing the latest worker GPS information 172 sent from the maintenance terminal 20 and the building's own GPS information included in the elevator specification information 171, and determining that they roughly match (e.g. If the difference is within 5 m), it is determined that they are at the work site, and if they do not match, it is determined that they are not at the work site. If it is determined that the worker is not at the work site, the process ends (No in step S10). After the processing is completed, the work schedule is planned again by the manager/inspection worker.

If it is determined in step S10 that the operator is at a work site (Yes in step S10), the non-stop temporary release mode execution determination unit 15 acquires the non-stop floor information included in the elevator specification information 171. This non-stop floor information allows it to be determined whether non-stop is set for each floor of the building or not.

Here, non-stop floor information will be explained. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of data of non-stop floor information. As shown in Figure 5, the 1st to 3rd floors of the No. 1 elevator are set to non-stop floors, and the 2nd elevator is set to non-stop floors of the 4th to 5th floors, which are intermediate floors, and the 3rd floor is set to non-stop floors. The 6th and 7th floors of the No. 1 elevator are set to non-stop floors. The elevator specification information 171 includes non-stop floor information as shown in FIG.

Returning to FIG. 2, the non-stop temporary release mode execution determination unit 15 determines whether the floor where the inspection worker is located is a non-stop floor based on the location information of the floor to be entered included in the inspection start notification sent from the maintenance terminal 20. It is determined whether it has been set (step S12). This determination is made by comparing the non-stop floor information acquired in the previous step S11 with the information on the entering floor. Note that the position information of the entrance floor may be substituted with GPS information (information in the height direction) transmitted from the maintenance terminal 20 one by one.

If the non-stop temporary release mode execution determining unit 15 of the center device 10 determines in step S12 that the floor on which the inspection worker enters is not set to non-stop (No in step S12), the process ends.

If the non-stop temporary release mode execution determination unit 15 of the center device 10 determines in step S12 that the floor on which the inspection worker enters is set to non-stop (Yes in step S12), the non-stop temporary release mode execution determination unit 15 issues a non-stop temporary release mode command during inspection. It is transmitted to the elevator (step S13). At this time, information on the floor where the non-stop status is to be canceled is also transmitted.

After this transmission is completed, the customer notification means 16 of the center device 10 notifies the owner of the building, the manager who manages the building, and the passengers that the non-stop setting for inspection has been canceled. , the processing of the center device 10 ends (step S14). In some cases, the non-stop setting is set by the building owner or building manager using an elevator maintenance company's application, so when canceling the non-stop setting, it can be temporarily canceled during inspection. Even if there is, it is necessary to make it widely known.

The non-stop temporary release mode execution unit 33 of the elevator 30 waits to receive a non-stop temporary release mode command during inspection (No in step S15), and upon receiving the command (Yes in step S15), The release mode is set (step S16). Details of the non-stop temporary release mode during inspection will be described later with reference to FIG.

When the non-stop temporary release mode is set, the elevator control command processing unit 34 instructs the elevator control program 32 to drive the car to the floor where the inspection worker is entering (step S17). Here, the entrance floor is the floor information included in the non-stop temporary release mode command during the above-mentioned inspection. When the car drives to the floor where the inspection worker is located and lands on the floor, the door is opened and the inspection worker is controlled to enter the car.

The inspection worker gets into the car for inspection (step S18) and drives the car using a code (step S19). Since the cryptographic operation corresponds to non-stop temporary release mode processing for the elevator 30, the details will be described later with reference to FIG.
<Non-stop temporary release mode during inspection>
FIG. 3 shows a sequence diagram when the elevator 30 of the elevator maintenance support system 1 shifts to the non-stop temporary release mode.

The flow of the non-stop temporary release mode will be described below with reference to FIG. 3 in conjunction with the functional block diagram of FIG. 1.

As described above, the elevator non-stop temporary release mode execution unit 33 is waiting to receive a non-stop temporary release mode command during inspection (No in step S15), and upon receiving the command (Yes in step S15), A non-stop temporary release mode is set (step S16).

Here, the setting of the non-stop temporary release mode will be explained using FIG. 6. FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of data of the non-stop temporary release mode.

As described above, the elevator specification information 171 stores the non-stop floor information data shown in FIG. For example, an inspection worker is on the first floor and is about to inspect Unit 1. However, since the first floor of Car No. 1 is set as a non-stop floor, the car of Car No. 1 cannot be called to the first floor using a hall call. Therefore, a non-stop temporary release mode is set for the first floor, the non-stop setting for the first floor is canceled, and the floor is set to stop. The second and third floors are maintained as non-stop floors.

When the non-stop temporary release mode is set, the elevator control command processing unit 34 instructs the elevator control program 32 to drive the car to the floor where the inspection worker is entering (step S17). The explanation up to this point is the same as the step numbers shown in FIG.

The non-stop temporary release mode execution unit 33 of the elevator 30 executes an elevator control program so that while the non-stop temporary release mode is set during inspection, the car door opens and a person can get on the car, but the elevator cannot be operated to another floor. 32 to control. This prevents them from driving to another floor even if a third party other than the inspection worker gets on board.

In order to operate the car, it is necessary to perform a cryptographic operation on the elevator 30. Cryptographic operations are performed using equipment installed in the elevator. For example, an operation in which destination floor buttons (not shown) installed in the car of the elevator 30 are operated in a predetermined order, or an operation that can be unlocked with a key installed in the car and owned only by an inspection worker. This can be done by flipping a switch inside the panel or verifying the identity of the inspection worker through image analysis using a security camera installed inside the car. In other words, any means may be used as long as the person who got into the car can be identified as the inspection worker. When the inspection worker is identified as the person who got into the car through the code difference operation, the system shifts to the non-stop temporary release mode.

If the cryptographic operation is not performed (No in step T1) and a predetermined period of time has elapsed (Yes in step T2), the non-stop temporary release mode is canceled and the non-stop setting is returned to (step T5).

When the cryptographic operation is performed (Yes in step T1), the non-stop mode is temporarily canceled and the inspection worker can operate the car, and elevator control such as low-speed operation for inspection or measurement operation for maintenance can be performed. You can do this.

If the predetermined number of driving operations is performed or a predetermined period of time has elapsed (Yes in step T4), the non-stop temporary release mode is canceled and the non-stop setting is returned to (step T5).

In this way, during elevator inspection and maintenance work, if the conditions for canceling the non-stop setting are met, the configuration is temporarily canceled via the central device, so inspections can be carried out without adding a new mechanism to each site. It is also possible to minimize the burden on workers. Furthermore, even if a third party were to get into the car when the non-stop floor was released, the system is designed to prevent the car from moving to another floor.
