Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to an elevator control device, and more particularly to temporary hall call registration and motion guidance.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, there has been a technique that allows hall call registration after the door opening time has expired, as described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 57-203665.

In addition, elevators are a commonly used function.
There are some that do not accept registration while the door is on the floor, and some that open the door again if you press the button while the door is closed.

For information on call registration, please refer to Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 50-684.
No. 69 and Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 54-45064.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The above-mentioned conventional technology has a problem in that if a user gets into the vehicle while the door is being reopened after one door has started closing, the registered call will be wasted.

In addition, when the car is full, if you press the call button to register a call after the door has started closing, the door will open again (hereinafter referred to as "re-opening"), causing inconvenience to passengers on board, and further reducing operational efficiency. There is a problem that the value decreases.

In addition to the above, the user feels confused and impatient because there is no guidance for button operations.

The purpose of the present invention is to improve the efficiency of call registration by provisionally registering hall calls, to eliminate unnecessary movements and frustration of users by providing movement guidance to users of the hall, and to improve driving efficiency. An object of the present invention is to provide an elevator control device that can perform

[Means to solve the problem]

The above object is achieved by temporarily registering a hall call and setting or resetting the permanent registration when a predetermined condition is satisfied.

In addition, the operation guidance to be notified to the information notification device is determined based on the availability status of hall call provisional registration and the elevator status,
This is achieved by notifying the boarding area.

[Effect]

Since hall calls are temporarily registered, response guidance can be provided without fail, and formal registration is set or reset according to predetermined conditions, eliminating unnecessary registrations.

Further, by providing motion guidance determined from the registration state of the hall call provisional registration and the I/I innovator state, it is possible to eliminate unnecessary motions and frustration on the part of the user.

Furthermore, the operation efficiency can be improved by the above-mentioned effect.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 8.

FIG. 1 is an overall configuration diagram of the present invention, and here the case of an eight-story building will be explained as an example. The control system C1 is composed of a group management control device MIO, an elevator control device C1-0, a car interface terminal bag [C20], and landing interface terminal devices 1HBI to HB8. Group management control bag [Mlo receives the hall call button signal from the hall interface device provided at the landing of each floor, selects a service elevator, and transmits a service command to the corresponding elevator control device C10 by the assigned hall call signal. .

The information system S1 is an information control bag w that outputs a signal to drive the hall information notification devices HDI to HD8 on each floor equipped with an LED display panel and voice guidance function and the car white information notification device KD.
8100 and an information transmission path 310.

A user command device that allows the building manager to change elevator operating specifications and information guidance rules [Information from UL is output to the network transmission path NIO and sent to each control device (MIO, C
IO, 5100) and received simultaneously.

FIG. 2 is a software configuration diagram of the present invention.

The hall call signal from the hall button HBI-HB8 is the 1st group management control bag [Mlo's registered hall call 7! The predetermined condition detection program P1 stored in the register R1 (this will be referred to as temporary registration) judges the condition from the elevator status signal, and resets the temporary tl or registers it in the hall call register R2 for allocation. conduct. The hall call allocation program P2 allocates only the hall calls registered in the allocation hall call register R2.

Registration status determination program P3 in information control device 5100
Then, the contents of the registered hall call register are determined, and the notification information determination program P4 is activated.

In the broadcast information determination program P4, information tables TI,
The broadcast information is determined from the elevator status signal and the elevator status signal. The determined information is transmitted to the information notification bags [HD1 to ID8] by the information transmission program P5.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing one embodiment of the predetermined condition detection program P1. This program is activated when the hall button is pressed or periodically.

In the example of this program, from step DIO to D70
Loop processing is now performed for all floors in the ascending and descending directions. First, in step D20, it is determined whether or not there is an elevator on the floor and direction that is being processed and whose doors are closed during departure guidance. If "YES", proceed to the next process; if "NO", proceed to step D60. , and outputs the registered hall call to the hall call register for allocation.

Next, in step D30, it is determined whether or not the elevator has entered the elevator where the departure guidance is being performed, based on the reversal of the door, a photoelectric device, a waiting passenger sensor, etc., and if "YES", the registered hall call is reset in step D40. If "NO", it is determined in the next step 050 whether the elevator being guided for departure has started running, if "11 NOLl", the process goes to step D70, and if "YES", it is determined that there are no more elevators for passengers to board, and the process goes to step 050. At D60, the registered hall call is output to the hall call register for assignment in preparation for hall call assignment.

FIGS. 4 and 5 show an example of the notification information determination program P4, which is periodically activated by the registration state determination program P3 after the elevator arrives at the floor in question.

FIG. 4 shows the process when the hall button is not pressed after arrival, and FIG. 5 shows the process when the hall button is pressed.

In step 0100, it is determined whether the arriving work 1 innovator is crowded. If YES, step D1
50 to control hall call request guidance during busy times 1 For example,
[It's crowded. If you press the button, the next elevator will arrive.'' is selected and notified. By notifying this guidance, waiting customers can easily move on to calling for the next elevator. Furthermore, the next elevator can be assigned even before the door closing time expires.

In step D110, it is determined whether the door opening time has expired. If NO, boarding guidance is controlled in step D140. For example, the guidance "Please board" is selected and notified. Customers are guided by notifying this guidance.

In step D120, it is determined whether the door is opened or closed, that is, after the door opening time has expired and before departure.

If YES, control the hall call request guidance at step DI 30. For example, select and notify the guidance "When one door is closed, please press the button and wait."

If the button is pressed at this point, the door will be opened, but by notifying this guidance, the number of times the door must be reopened can be reduced, reducing the time spent on the floor, and as a result, driving efficiency will be improved. It also reduces the frustration felt by passengers already on board.

FIG. 5 shows the process when the hall button is pressed.

In step D200, it is determined whether the reservation has been changed to another aircraft according to the guidance in step D130 or step D150 in FIG. If YES, proceed to step D240 to request a transfer to another unit! 4.

For example, the guidance "Please wait in front of car No. 2" is selected and notified. By notifying this guidance, customers can be guided to the car whose reservation has been changed.

In step D204, it is determined whether the elevator control has a specification with a reoven. If YES, step D2
If No in step 10, the standby guide guidance is controlled in step D208.6 For example, the guidance ``When the door closes, we will guide you to the next elevator'' is selected and notified.

In step D210, it is determined whether the hall call registration has been reset due to a customer boarding the hall after re-opening. If YES, the program shown in FIG. 4 is executed in step D230.

If No, it means that it has been reopened, so go to step D22.
0 controls boarding guidance. For example, the guidance "Please board" is selected and notified.

FIGS. 6 to 8 are examples of guidance announcements in halls.

The 6th @ is an example when the elevator arrives in a crowded state. In the case of a crowded arrival, since the next call registration is possible immediately, guidance is announced as shown in (a) and a request for call registration is made. This notification is performed by the process of step D150 in FIG.

When the button is pressed in response to this notification and the next elevator is assigned, a guidance notification is made as shown in (b) to request movement to another elevator. This notification is performed at step D240 in FIG.

FIGS. 7 and 8 are examples of cases where the area is not crowded.

FIG. 7 is an example of a case where the beam has an open specification. From the time of arrival to the time before the door opening time expires, guidance will be announced as shown in (a).
This notification, which guides waiting passengers to board the train, is performed in step D140 in FIG.

From the time the door opens until the door closes, guidance is announced as shown in (b). This notification is performed in step D130 of FIG. If the hall button is pressed in this state, the hall will reopen, but this notification will reduce the length of time the train stops at the floor. If a person who enters the hall presses the hall button as shown in HiTOl (b), the driver will be given an open announcement as shown in c) to guide him or her to board the hall. This notification is performed in step D220 of FIG. When HiTOl gets on board, the hall call is reset at step D40 in FIG. 3, and the guidance in (b) is again announced.

Hi, T O2 are people who want to ride in a group, and these people will press the hall button after closing the door due to the notification in (b).

FIG. 8 is an example where there is no beam open specification.

After the door opening time has expired, a guidance announcement will be made as shown in (a).

If the user presses the button thinking that HiTO3 will reopen, the information in (b) will be announced. This notification goes up to step D208 in FIG.

In this way, the user's behavior is guided by providing guidance that takes into account both the hall call registration status and the elevator status, so the user can easily use the elevator and avoid unnecessary frustration and confusion. It disappears.

Additionally, operational efficiency is improved.

〔Effect of the invention〕

According to the present invention, since the state of hall call registration is detected and guidance determined based on this and the elevator state is provided, the user's actions become smoother and the user is free from unnecessary operations and frustration.

In addition, the time the train is parked on the relevant floor is reduced, which improves operational efficiency.

Furthermore, the hall call is provisionally registered and the official registration or provisional registration is reset based on the judgment of five conditions.

This eliminates unnecessary registration and improves operational efficiency.
