[Embodiment 1]
Hereinafter, the first embodiment will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

(Example of entrance / exit management system configuration)
FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of the entrance / exit management system 1 according to the first embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the entrance / exit management system 1 includes an elevator control device 120, a gate control device 220, and an entrance / exit management device 300. The elevator control device 120, the gate control device 220, and the entrance / exit management device 300 are connected to each other so that information can be exchanged.

The gate control device 220 controls the flapper gates 20a to 20d. The gate control device 220 includes an entrance / exit number counting unit 221 and a display control unit 222.

The flapper gates 20a to 20d are installed, for example, at the entrance / exit of a building. The number of flapper gates 20a to 20d installed is not limited to the example shown in FIG. 1, and a plurality of flapper gates 20a to 20d may be installed. Further, when these flapper gates 20a to 20d are not particularly distinguished, they may be simply referred to as flapper gates 20.

The flapper gate 20 is a card reader 22en for visitors entering the building through the flapper gate 20 and a card reader for exiters leaving the building at a position facing the card reader 22en of the flapper gate 20. It is equipped with 22ex. The card readers 22en and 22ex read information on magnetic cards and IC (Integrated Circuit) cards held by visitors. The read information is used to determine whether the holder of the magnetic card or IC card is authorized to enter or leave the building. If the person is not allowed to enter or leave the building, the flapper of the flapper gate 20 operates to prevent the person from entering or leaving the building.

The flapper gate 20 includes a display unit 21 that displays an entrance / exit display indicating whether the flapper gate 20 is for entry or exit. Then, the flapper gate 20 with the indication "for entry" on the display unit 21 functions as an entrance gate, and the flapper gate 20 with the indication "for exit" functions as an exit gate.

The display units 21 are provided on both sides of the flapper gate 20 facing the inside and outside of the building so that visitors and exits passing through the flapper gate 20 can visually recognize them. The entry / exit person can check the indications such as "for entry" and "for exit" and select an appropriate flapper gate 20 to pass through.

The entrance / exit number counting unit 221 of the gate control device 220 acquires the number of information read by the card readers 22en and 22ex, and counts the number of visitors and the number of exits. That is, when a magnetic card, an IC card, or the like is held over the card reader 22en and the information is read once, the number of visitors is counted as one. Further, when the information is read once by holding a magnetic card or an IC card over the card reader 22ex, the number of exits is counted as 1.

The display control unit 222 of the gate control device 220 controls the display on the display unit 21. Specifically, according to a command from the entrance / exit management device 300, which will be described later, a predetermined display unit 21 is made to display a predetermined display such as “for entrance” or “for exit”.

The elevator control device 120 controls the elevator 10. The elevator control device 120 includes an operation control unit 121 and a user number counting unit 122.

The elevator 10 includes a platform 11 on each floor in the building, a destination floor registration device 12, and a car (not shown) for landing on the platform 11 on each floor, including the floor on which the flapper gate 20 is installed. The destination floor registration device 12 accepts registration of the destination floor by the user of the elevator 10 at the platform 11 on that floor.

The operation control unit 121 controls various operations such as a car of the elevator 10. For example, the operation control unit 121 operates the car to that floor when the landing call by the user on the predetermined floor is detected, that is, when the destination floor is registered via the destination floor registration device 12. In addition, the operation control unit 121 operates the car to the registered destination floor.

The user number counting unit 122 uses the elevator 10 to count the number of users heading from a floor other than the floor where the flapper gate 20 is installed to the floor where the flapper gate 20 is installed. That is, when the destination floor registration device 12 receives one registration with the installation floor of the flapper gate 20 as the destination floor, the user number counting unit 122 counts as the number of users 1.

The entry / exit management device 300 manages entry / exit at the flapper gate 20. The entrance / exit management device 300 includes a gate information acquisition unit 301, an elevator information acquisition unit 302, a calculation unit 303, and an output unit 304.

The gate information acquisition unit 301 acquires various information related to the flapper gate 20 such as the number of visitors at the flapper gate 20 at that time from the gate control device 220.

The elevator information acquisition unit 302 acquires various information about the elevator 10 from the elevator control device 120, such as the number of users heading to the floor where the flapper gate 20 is installed at that time.

The calculation unit 303 calculates the ratio of the number of visitors and exits at the flapper gate 20 from the number of visitors acquired by the gate information acquisition unit 301 and the number of users acquired by the elevator information acquisition unit 302. At this time, the calculation unit 303 performs the above calculation using the number of visitors acquired by the gate information acquisition unit 301 as the number of visitors. In addition, the calculation unit 303 performs the above calculation with the number of users acquired by the elevator information acquisition unit 302 as the number of exiters who are expected to leave the building soon.

Further, the calculation unit 303 determines the number of allocations of information display regarding entry / exit in the display units 21 of the plurality of flapper gates 20 based on the calculated ratio of entry / exit persons. That is, the calculation unit 303 increases the number of display units 21 that display "for entry" if the ratio of the number of visitors is high, and the number of display units 21 that display "for exit" if the ratio of the number of exits is high. To increase.

Further, the calculation unit 303 generates an instruction to change the display of the display unit 21 according to the determination of the number of allocations of the display of the information regarding entry / exit in the display unit 21. However, this display change instruction may be generated by the output unit 304 based on the determination of the calculation unit 303.

The output unit 304 outputs the generated display change command to the gate control device 220. As described above, the display control unit 222 of the gate control device 220 receives this command and causes the display of the display unit 21 of each flapper gate 20 to be changed accordingly. That is, the number of flapper gates 20 functioning as entrance gates and the number of flapper gates 20 functioning as exit gates change according to the number of allocations for displaying information regarding entrance / exit.

FIG. 2 is a schematic view showing an example of the display of the display unit 21 in the flapper gate 20 according to the first embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 2A, among the display units 21 of the flapper gates 20a to 20d, the display units 21 of the flapper gates 20a to 20c are displayed as "for admission", and the flapper gates 20d are displayed. The section 21 is labeled as "for exit". In this way, when it is predicted that the number of visitors is larger than the number of exits, the calculation unit 303 decides to increase the allocation of the "entrance" display to the "exit" display.

As shown in FIG. 2B, among the display units 21 of the flapper gates 20a to 20c that were displayed as "for entry", the display unit 21 of the flapper gate 20c is displayed for "exit". .. In this way, when the number of exiters is expected to increase, the calculation unit 303 decides to increase the allocation of the "exit" display.

(Example of entrance / exit management process by entrance / exit management device)
Next, an example of the entrance / exit management process by the entrance / exit management device 300 of the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 3 is a flow chart showing an example of the procedure of the entrance / exit management process by the entrance / exit management device 300 according to the first embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 3, the gate information acquisition unit 301 of the entrance / exit management device 300 acquires the number of visitors from the plurality of flapper gates 20 from the entrance / exit number counting unit 221 of the gate control device 220 (step S101). ). The elevator information acquisition unit 302 acquires the number of users of the elevator 10 heading to the installation floor of the flapper gate 20 from the user number counting unit 122 of the elevator control device 110 (step S102).

The calculation unit 303 calculates the ratio of visitors to and from the flapper gate 20 (step S103). At this time, the calculation unit 303 uses the number of visitors acquired by the gate information acquisition unit 301 as the number of visitors in the flapper gate 20, and the number of users of the elevator 10 acquired by the elevator information acquisition unit 302 is used as the flapper gate. It is used as the number of people leaving at 20.

The calculation unit 303 determines the number of allocations for displaying information regarding entry / exit on the display unit 21 of the flapper gate 20 based on the ratio of the number of visitors / exits at the flapper gate 20 (S104). Further, the calculation unit 303 generates an instruction to cause the display unit 21 to display according to the determined number of the display units 21 allocated. However, such an instruction may be generated by the output unit 304.

The output unit 304 outputs the above command to the gate control device 220.

As a result, the entrance / exit management process by the entrance / exit management device 300 of the first embodiment is completed. After that, the display control unit 222 of the gate control device 220 that has received the above command changes the display of each display unit 21 based on the assigned number of entrance / exit displays.

According to the entrance / exit management device 300 of the first embodiment, the number of entrance / exit indications allocated to the display unit 21 is determined based on the ratio of the number of entrance / exit persons at the flapper gate 20. As a result, congestion at the flapper gate 20 can be suppressed, and even when the flapper gate 20 is crowded, the exiting person can smoothly pass through the flapper gate 20.

According to the entrance / exit management device 300 of the first embodiment, the number of users of the elevator 10 heading to the floor where the flapper gate 20 is installed is regarded as an exit person who will soon leave the flapper gate 20, and the number of entrance / exit persons at the flapper gate 20 Calculate the ratio. Prior to the expected increase in the number of exits, the display unit 21 of the flapper gate 20 can display an appropriate allocation, and congestion can be alleviated.

According to the entrance / exit management device 300 of the first embodiment, since there is a correlation between the increase / decrease in the number of people entering / exiting the flapper gate 20 and the increase / decrease in the number of users in the elevator 10, the elevator control device 120 is linked to the gate control device 220. I'm letting you. As a result, the entrance / exit display can be properly assigned to the display unit 21.

(Modification example)
Next, the entrance / exit management system of the modified example of the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. The entrance / exit management system of the modified example is different from the above-described first embodiment in that a notice is displayed when the display of the display unit is changed.

FIG. 4 is an example of a procedure for displaying the gate control device according to a flow chart showing an example of the procedure for operating the elevator by the elevator control device according to the modified example of the first embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 4, the operation control unit of the elevator control device of the modified example detects the acceptance of registration with the installation floor of the flapper gate as the destination floor via the destination floor registration device 12 (step S111). In response to such a landing call, the operation control unit drives the car to the landing floor, that is, the floor registered by the destination floor registration device 12, and detects the arrival of the car at the landing floor ( Step S112). After arriving at the platform call floor of the car, the operation control unit drives the car to the installation floor of the flapper gate, which is the registered destination floor, and detects the arrival of the car on the installation floor (step S113). ). After arriving at the installation floor of the flapper gate of the car, the operation control unit detects the opening of the elevator 10 on the installation floor (step S114).

When a predetermined process is executed in each of the steps S111 to S115, the entrance / exit management device of the modified example transmits it to the gate control device. Specifically, when the acceptance of registration with the floor where the flapper gate is installed as the destination floor is detected (step S111), the elevator information acquisition unit of the entrance / exit management device acquires it, and the output unit goes to the gate control device. And output it. When the arrival of the car on the floor where the flapper gate is installed is detected (step S113), the elevator information acquisition unit acquires it, and the output unit outputs it to the gate control device. Further, when the door opening of the elevator 10 on the floor where the flapper gate is installed is detected (step S114), the elevator information acquisition unit acquires it, and the output unit outputs it to the gate control device.

When the execution of each step S111, S113, S114 is transmitted, the gate control device of the modified example causes the display unit to display various displays by using the trigger. Specifically, at the timing when the acceptance of registration with the floor where the flapper gate is installed as the destination floor is detected (step S111), the display control unit displays "for entry" among the display units displaying "for exit". In the display section where the assignment is to be changed to the display of "", the "for admission" display starts blinking. The display control unit keeps blinking the display on the display unit until the arrival of the car on the floor where the flapper gate is installed is detected (step S113). When the arrival of the car on the floor where the flapper gate is installed is detected (step S113), the display control unit stops the blinking of the display by the display unit. At the timing when the door opening of the elevator 10 on the floor where the flapper gate is installed is detected (step S114), the display control unit changes the display of the display unit from "for entry" to "for exit".

According to the entrance / exit management system of the modified example, the display of the display unit is not changed suddenly, but a blinking display indicating a change notice is displayed. As a result, it is possible to prevent the display of the display unit from being changed immediately before the visitor tries to pass through the flapper gate.

[Embodiment 2]
Hereinafter, the second embodiment will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. The entrance / exit management device 310 of the second embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the allocation of the entrance / exit display in a predetermined time zone is restricted based on the use of the building and the like.

(Example of entrance / exit management system configuration)
FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of the entrance / exit management system 2 according to the second embodiment. In FIG. 5, the same configurations as those in the first embodiment are designated by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof will be omitted.

As shown in FIG. 5, the entrance / exit management system 2 includes an elevator control device 120, a gate control device 220, and an entrance / exit management device 310. The entrance / exit management device 310 includes a calculation unit 313 instead of the calculation unit 303, and a storage unit 315.

The storage unit 315 stores the exit number prediction information for each time zone at the flapper gate 20. The tendency of the number of people leaving the building differs depending on the use of the building in which the flapper gate 20 is installed. For example, if the building is a school or office, many people leave after the evening, if the building is a house, many people leave in the morning, and if the building is a hospital or commercial facility, people always come and go. is there. The exit number prediction information includes information on the estimated number of exits for each time zone based on the use of such a building.

Similar to the calculation unit 303 of the first embodiment, the calculation unit 313 calculates the ratio of the number of visitors and exits at the flapper gate 20 from the acquired number of visitors and the number of users of the elevator 10. Further, the calculation unit 313 determines the number of allocations of information regarding entry / exit in the display unit 21 of the flapper gate 20 based on the ratio of the number of visitors / exits, as in the calculation unit 303 of the first embodiment.

The calculation unit 313 further refers to the exit number prediction information stored in the storage unit 315, and acquires the number of exits predicted in that time zone. Further, when the number of exits predicted in the time zone exceeds a predetermined threshold, the calculation unit 313 determines the number of allocations of information regarding entry / exit on the display unit 21 based on the predicted number of exits. The calculation is performed again, and thereafter, the allocation of information regarding entry / exit on the display unit 21 is restricted until the predicted number of exits falls below a predetermined threshold after that time zone has elapsed. That is, the display unit 21 is not further assigned to display the information regarding entry / exit.

Such restriction of the entrance / exit display allocation can be performed, for example, by not generating an instruction according to the number of allocations determined based on the ratio of entrance / exit, or by not causing the output unit 304 to output the instruction. ..

(Example of entrance / exit management process by entrance / exit management device)
FIG. 6 is a flow chart showing an example of the procedure of the entrance / exit management process by the entrance / exit management device 310 according to the second embodiment.

The calculation unit 313 determines whether or not the predicted number of exiters in that time zone is equal to or less than a predetermined threshold value (step S206).

If the predicted number of exits is equal to or less than the threshold value (step S206: Yes), the output unit 304 outputs a display change command in the display unit 21 to the gate control device 220 based on the allocation number calculated by the calculation unit 313 (step S206: Yes). Step S208).

When the predicted number of exits exceeds the threshold value (step S206: No), the calculation unit 313 limits the display allocation to the display unit 21 (step S207).

FIG. 7 is a flow chart showing an example of a procedure for restricting display allocation by the entrance / exit management device 310 according to the second embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 7, when the predicted number of exits exceeds the threshold value, the calculation unit 313 determines the allocation number of the entry / exit display of the display unit 21 based on the predicted number of exits in the time zone ( Step S211).

The output unit 304 outputs an instruction to change the display of the display unit 21 to the gate control device 220 according to the allocated number determined based on the predicted number of exits (step S212).

After that, the calculation unit 313 limits the instruction for changing the display of the display unit 21 (step S213). That is, the generation or output of the instruction is restricted so that the display of the display unit 21 is not changed from the allocation determined based on the predicted number of exits.

The calculation unit 313 determines whether or not the current time is within the time zone (step S214). If the current time is within that time zone (step S214: Yes), the restriction of the instruction to change the display of the display unit 21 is continued.

If the current time deviates from that time zone (step S214: No), the display allocation restriction process on the display unit 21 ends.

As a result, the entrance / exit management process by the entrance / exit management device 310 of the second embodiment is completed.

According to the entrance / exit management device 310 of the second embodiment, the allocation of the entrance / exit display on the display unit 21 is restricted in the time zone when the predicted number of exits exceeds a predetermined threshold value. As a result, it is possible to prevent the entry / exit display from being frequently changed during a busy time zone or the like where there are many exiters.

In addition, the calculation unit 313 of the second embodiment decides to limit the allocation of the entrance / exit display in the display unit 21 based on the exit prediction information stored in the storage unit 305, but the predicted number of visitors and the predicted number of visitors The storage unit may have entry / exit prediction information including both information on the number of exits. In that case, the calculation unit may limit the allocation of the entrance / exit display on the display unit 21 based on both numerical values of the predicted number of visitors / exits.

In addition, the calculation unit may predict the number of exits for each time zone based on the use of the building or the like. Alternatively, the arithmetic unit may predict both the number of visitors and exits for each time zone.

Further, in the above-described first and second embodiments, the number of users who are heading to the installation floor of the flapper gate 20 is detected and the number of exits is set based on the information from the destination floor registration device 12 installed at the platform 11.
