When there is a female user, the registrant determination unit 9 on the stop floor determines whether there is a male user among the users who have registered the registration floor. The registrant determination unit 9 on the stop floor outputs the determination result to the operation control unit 17.

  Based on the in-car image data from the in-car image input unit 4, the person behavior analysis unit 10 detects the position of the user in the car 104 and detects whether the user has moved.

  The sex determination unit 11 analyzes the in-car image data from the in-car image input unit 4 and determines the gender of the user in the car 104 when the boarding detection unit 3 detects the boarding of the user. . The determination result is output to the user sex association unit 14 and the operation mode switching unit 15.

Here, a gender determination method in the gender determination unit 11 will be described.
The gender determination unit 11 determines the gender of the user by pattern matching the in-car video data from the in-car video input unit 4 and characteristic data for each predetermined gender.
Here, the characteristic data for each gender includes, for example, data relating to height, data relating to shoulder width, data relating to the volume of the hair portion, data relating to the temperature of the cheek portion of the face, data relating to the color of the lip portion of the face, and color relating to the clothing portion. Data, data on shoe heel height, data on footprints, and the like. Of these feature data, use two or more feature data to compare the number of hits with male features and the number of hits with female features. The gender should be selected.
Another example of the feature data for each gender is data related to the features of the walking posture for each gender. Comparing the walking posture of men and women, the displacement of the relative position of the shoulder part of the man is larger than that of the woman as a characteristic of the walking posture of the man, whereas the relative position of the waist part of the man The amount of displacement tends to be smaller than that of women. Therefore, from the in-car image data from the in-car image input unit 4, the displacement amount of the shoulder portion and the waist portion of each user is obtained, and the ratio of the displacement amount of the shoulder portion to the displacement amount of the waist portion is calculated. The gender of the user may be determined, such as male if the ratio value is equal to or greater than the threshold, and female if the ratio is less than the threshold.
These are merely examples, and sex determination may be performed using any other method.

  The walking speed analysis unit 12 calculates the walking speed of the user at the landing based on the landing video data from the landing video input means 5, and the walking speed is calculated based on the “security function walking speed reference” of the basic setting data in FIG. Compare with value. As a result of the comparison, when the walking speed is equal to or higher than the reference value, the walking speed analysis unit 12 determines that the movement of the user is abnormal. Note that the walking speed analysis unit 12 is used in the third embodiment to be described later, but is not necessarily required in the first embodiment, and thus is not necessarily provided.

  The user destination floor associating unit 13 associates, for each user, the user and the destination floor registered by the user based on the information from the car destination floor registration unit 2 and the person behavior analysis unit 10. The “destination floor” information of the user information data of FIG. 4 stored in the user information data storage unit 21 is updated.

  The user sex associating unit 14 is a diagram in which the user and the user's gender are associated with each other based on the determination result of the gender determining unit 11 and stored in the user information data storage unit 21. The sex (male / female) determined by the sex determination unit 11 is stored in the “sex” information of the user information data 4.

  The operation mode switching unit 15 switches the elevator operation mode based on at least one of the basic setting data of FIG. 3, the determination result of the gender determination unit 11, and the user information data of FIG. 4.

  When the boarding position information update unit 16 determines that the current driving mode is the crime prevention driving mode based on the basic setting data of FIG. 3, the boarding position information updating unit 16 determines for each user based on the analysis result of the human behavior analysis unit 10. The “position” information of the user information data in FIG. 4 is updated.

  The operation control unit 17 operates the car 104 based on the basic setting data in FIG. 3, the signal from the registrant determination unit 9 at the stop floor, and the operation mode set by the operation mode switching unit 15, and The operation of the opening / closing unit 6, the reporting unit 7, and the reporting unit 8 is controlled.

  The getting-off operation detecting unit 18 detects whether or not the user has got off for each gender of the user based on the determination result from the getting-off operator determining unit 19.

  The getting-off operator determination unit 19 determines whether the user getting off at the registration floor is a woman or a man based on the user information data of FIG.

However, if the basic setting data input unit 22 is not provided, the basic setting data storage unit 20 stores the basic setting data of FIG.

  In the first embodiment, the number of users in the car 104 is equal to or less than the “number of users” in the basic setting data in FIG. 3 and the number of women in the car 104 is “ When it is equal to the “number of female movements”, the mode shifts to the “crime prevention driving mode”.

  In the “security operation mode”, when the destination floor is registered in the car destination floor registration unit 2, the user destination floor association unit 13 causes the “destination floor” of the user information data in FIG. The destination floor is stored in the information. The person behavior analysis unit 10 analyzes the video data input from the in-car video input unit 4 and detects the presence or absence of movement of the user in the car 104. The boarding position information update unit 15 updates the “position” information of the user information data in FIG. 4 for the moved user based on the detection result of the person behavior analysis unit 10.

  Next, the operation control unit 17 detects whether or not the car 104 is to be stopped. In the case of a stop decision, the registrant determination unit 9 on the stop floor has a female call registration on the stop floor from the “gender” information and the “destination floor” information of the user information data in FIG. It also detects whether there is a call registration.

  Next, the stop detection unit 1 by the car call detects that the car 104 has stopped. After the car 104 is stopped, the getting-off operation detection unit 18 determines the person getting off the vehicle. If the man starts the getting-off operation before the woman completes the getting-off operation, the reporting unit 7 issues a buzzer. When the woman completes the getting-off operation, the door is fully closed by the door opening / closing part 6, and the announcement part 7 issues an announcement such as “I was very sorry to wait ...” and again by the door opening / closing part 6 After the door is fully opened, the man starts getting off.

  Hereinafter, operation | movement of the elevator control apparatus which concerns on Embodiment 1 is demonstrated using the flowchart of FIGS.

  FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing the operation during boarding in the first embodiment.

In step S1, the elevator control panel 110 sets the “security function” in the basic setting data in FIG. 3 to “with security function” and the current time is “security function operation time zone” in the basic setting data in FIG. It is determined whether it is within the range.
If “no crime prevention function” or “no crime prevention function operation time zone”, the process proceeds to “no” in step S1 and ends the process of FIG.
On the other hand, if “there is a crime prevention function” and “the crime prevention function operation time zone”, the process proceeds to “yes” in step S1.

In step S2, the boarding detection unit 3 determines whether or not the boarding of the user has been detected.
When the boarding is not detected, the process proceeds to “no” in step S2, and the process of FIG.
On the other hand, when the boarding is detected, the process proceeds to “yes” in step S2.

  In step S <b> 3, the elevator control panel 110 receives the in-car image data from the in-car image input unit 4 by the sex determination unit 11. The sex determination unit 11 analyzes the video data in the car and determines the sex of the user. At this time, the feature data of each user is stored as feature data for specifying each user. The feature data is preferably the color or shape of the clothes. Alternatively, the features used in the gender determination may be used as they are.

  In step S4, the elevator control panel 110 causes the user gender associating unit 14 to add gender information to the “gender” information of the user information data in FIG. 4 for each user based on the determination result of the gender determining unit 11. Set.

  In step S5, the elevator control panel 110 sets the boarding time information in the “boarding time” information of the user information data in FIG. 4 for each user.

  In step S6, the elevator control panel 110 obtains the total number of users by referring to the user information data in FIG. 4 and updates the number of passengers in the memory 201.

In step S7, the elevator control panel 110 determines whether or not the current operation mode is the “crime prevention operation mode”.
If it is in the “security operation mode”, the process proceeds to “yes” in step S7, and the process of FIG.
On the other hand, if it is not in the “security operation mode”, the process proceeds to “no” in step S7.

In step S8, the elevator control panel 110 determines whether or not the current number of passengers is equal to or less than the “number of people with crime prevention function” in the basic setting data of FIG.
If it is not equal to or less than the “number of people with security function”, the process proceeds to “no” in step S8, and the process of FIG.
On the other hand, if the number is equal to or less than the “number of people with security function”, the process proceeds to “yes” in step S8.

In step S9, the elevator control panel 110 determines whether or not the number of women in the car 104 is equal to the “number of crime prevention function persons [women]” in the basic setting data of FIG.
If it is different from “the crime prevention function number of persons [female]”, the process proceeds to “no” in step S9, and the process of FIG.
On the other hand, if it is equal to “the number of security functions operating [female]”, the process proceeds to “yes” in step S9.

  In step S <b> 10, the elevator control panel 110 causes the operation mode switching unit 15 to set the operation mode to “security operation mode”.

  Next, in step S11, an announcement that a crime prevention operation is in progress is issued, and the processing in FIG. 5 is terminated.

Since the basic operation of the fourth embodiment is the same as that of the first to third embodiments described with reference to FIG. 1, the description of FIG. 1 is omitted here.

  Moreover, since the structure of the elevator control apparatus of Embodiment 4 is the same as the structure of FIG.2 and FIG.15 mentioned above, the description is abbreviate | omitted here.

  The operation of the elevator control device of the fourth embodiment is basically the same as that of the first to third embodiments. The only difference from the first to third embodiments is that, in the fourth embodiment, the basic setting data in FIG. 3 can be changed by the elevator administrator in accordance with the change in the usage state of the user. It is. Below, only this difference is demonstrated and description is abbreviate | omitted about another operation | movement. The manager of the elevator may be a manager of the management room or a person in charge of the elevator maintenance company.

  In the fourth embodiment, in the elevator control panel 110, an administrator inputs setting data through the basic setting data input unit 22 shown in FIG. 2, and the basic setting shown in FIG. 3 stored in the basic setting data storage unit 20 is stored. Change the data in the data to the input setting data.

  FIG. 14 is a flowchart showing the basic setting data changing operation according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention.

  In step S80, the administrator operates a personal computer or the like connected to the elevator control panel 110 to open a port after inputting a password.

  In step S81, the administrator stands by until there is a reception event.

  If there is a reception event, the process proceeds to “There is a reception event” in step S81. In step S82, the basic setting data shown in FIG. 3 is rewritten with the received data, and the process returns to step S81 to wait for the next reception event. Note that the process in FIG. 14 ends when the administrator closes the port.

  As described above, since the fourth embodiment has basically the same configuration and operation as those of the first to third embodiments, the same effects as those of the first to third embodiments can be obtained. Furthermore, in the fourth embodiment, the basic setting data in FIG. 3 can be changed by the administrator in accordance with the change in the usage state of the user. Therefore, the crime prevention of the elevator can be performed using the optimal basic setting data. Since driving can be performed, convenience is improved.

In the above first to fourth embodiments, the condition for switching the operation mode from the normal mode to the crime prevention operation mode is not limited to the identification of “one woman and one man” by gender determination in the car image analysis, For example, “two women and men” or “the number of men is more than women” may be used.
Alternatively, the identification may be performed using an RFID tag instead of the in-car image analysis. When using an RFID tag, each user carries an RFID tag in which user information is registered in advance. As user information, for example, in addition to each user's ID information, each user's “floor of apartment room” information, “age” information, and, if the user is a child, the parent of the user ID information, and, if the user is a woman, ID information of the user's family. Thus, when each user gets on the elevator, the information in the RFID tag is read by the RFID reader installed in the hall or the car. This makes it possible for each user to be “a resident in an apartment or otherwise”, “a child and an adult other than a parent”, “a woman and a man other than his / her family”, “a resident on a higher floor, or otherwise. Can be identified, the conditions for switching the driving mode from the normal mode to the crime prevention driving mode are as follows. It can also be “Who is a woman and a man other than her family”, “Is it a resident on a higher floor, or something else”.
