 FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing the structure of a conventional elevator device.

In FIG. 3, 1 is an elevator control device that controls the operation of an elevator, 2 is a door control device that controls the opening and closing of doors, and 3 is an obstacle detection that detects an obstacle that obstructs the opening and closing of the door. Device 4 is a car operation panel for operating a driver's operation, 5 is a car call button provided on the car operation panel 4 for registering a car call, and 6 is provided on the car operation panel 4 for selecting an upward direction UP Buttons, 7 are DOWN buttons provided on the car operation panel 4 for selecting a downward direction, and 8 are operation changeover switches with a driver provided on the car operation panel 4 for switching between automatic operation and manual operation by the driver.

Next, the operation of the conventional elevator device will be described.

FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the operation of the conventional elevator apparatus. Note that FIG. 4 shows the operation when the driver-equipped operation change-over switch 8 is switched from the automatic operation to the manual operation by the driver, and the elevator control device 1 is in the driver-equipped operation.

In FIG. 4, when the driver-equipped operation changeover switch 8 is switched from the automatic operation to the manual operation by the driver, the elevator control device 1 is in the driver-equipped operation, and the operation from step 1 is started.

In step 1, in the elevator control device 1, it is determined whether the car call is registered by the car call button 5. When the car call is registered by the car call button 5, the process proceeds to step 2, and when the car call is not registered by the car call button 5, the process proceeds to step 7.

In step 2, in the elevator control device 1, it is determined whether the UP button 6 or the DOWN button 7 is pressed. If the UP button 6 or the DOWN button 7 is pressed, the process proceeds to step 3, and if the UP button 6 or the DOWN button 7 is not pressed, the process proceeds to step 7.

In step 3, the elevator control device 1 determines whether the obstacle detection device 3 has detected an obstacle. When the obstacle detection device 3 detects an obstacle, the process proceeds to step 7, and when the obstacle detection device 3 does not detect the obstacle, the process proceeds to step 4.

In step 7, a door opening signal is output from the elevator control device 1 to the door control device 2, the door control device 2 starts the door opening operation, and the process proceeds to step 8. In step 8, the elevator controller 1 determines whether the door has been completely opened, based on the door position signal from the door controller 2. If the door has been opened, proceed to Step 1, and if the door has not been opened, proceed to Step 9. In step 9, the door control device 2 continues the door opening operation, and proceeds to step 8.

In step 4, a door closing signal is output from the elevator control device 1 to the door control device 2, the door control device 2 starts the door closing operation, and the process proceeds to step 5. In step 5, the elevator controller 1 determines whether the door is completely closed or not based on the door position signal from the door controller 2. If the door is closed, the door closing operation is completed, and if the door is not closed, go to step 6. In step 6, the door control device 2 continues the door closing operation, and proceeds to step 1.

[0012]

In the elevator apparatus of the related art described above, in the driver-equipped operation, if the obstacle detection device detects an obstacle while the driver is closing the door, the door control device opens the door. If the obstacle detection device continues to detect the obstacle, the door control device keeps the door open.

Therefore, in driver-equipped operation, even if the driver performs a door-closing operation, an unnecessary door-opening operation or an undoor-closing operation cannot be performed depending on whether or not the obstacle detection device detects an obstacle. It will be.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide an elevator apparatus capable of performing efficient door opening / closing control without lowering operability in driver's operation. There is.

[0015]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to solve the above problems, the present invention solves the above-mentioned problems by controlling an elevator, an elevator control device that controls the opening and closing of a door, an obstacle detection device that detects an obstacle that interferes with the opening and closing of the door, and a driver. An elevator system consisting of a car operation panel for operating operations is equipped with a timekeeping device that measures the time when an obstacle is detected.

When an obstacle is detected by the obstacle detection device during a driver-operated door closing operation on the car operation panel, the door is kept until the time measured by the time measuring device exceeds a predetermined time. The control device continues the door opening operation or the stopping operation, and the door control device performs the door closing operation when the time measured by the timing device exceeds a predetermined time.

The predetermined time compared with the time measured by the time measuring device is a time different depending on the position of the door or the operation of the door where the obstacle detecting device detects the obstacle, and may be an arbitrary time. It can be set.

Then, the timing device is enabled or disabled by the position of the door where the obstacle detection device has detected an obstacle or the operation of the door, and the obstacle detection device has detected an obstacle. It can be enabled or disabled depending on the door position or door operation.

[Embodiment of the invention]

 The present invention includes an elevator device that can be operated by a driver and is equipped with a timing device that measures the time when an obstacle is detected, and the obstacle detection device detects an obstacle during the door-closing operation of the driver operation on the car operation panel. When it is detected, the door control device performs a door opening operation, a stopping operation, and a door closing operation by comparing the time measured by the time measuring device with a predetermined time.
