Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to an elevator.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 Elevators are used in buildings with multiple floors to move people or things to different floors. Especially in high-rise buildings, it is indispensable, and as the height of buildings increases, the role of elevators is playing an increasingly important role.

This can be understood from the fact that elevators are installed in most buildings and are integrated into people's daily activities. In this way, as people are used more frequently, what is simply a transportation device has been improved to a device that gives a more comfortable use feeling. For example, the speed of conveyance is increased, and the dislike of acceleration caused by starting and braking is eliminated, providing a more comfortable user experience.

As described above, although the mechanical performance is improved, the operability of the elevator is improved as a condition that must be remembered along with the mechanical performance as a condition for making the usability of the elevator comfortable. is there. This is because the elevator is operated and operated by an unspecified number of users. Therefore, the operation method of the elevator is simpler and designed so that anyone can operate it easily.

[0005]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, even though the operating method has been simplified and facilitated, it is unlikely that the elevator will be operated without error. For example, when an elevator passenger designates a stop floor, it is possible that he / she accidentally presses a button that designates another floor that is not the floor he / she wants to use. In such a case, the operation button in the conventional elevator cannot cancel or correct the error. This will cause the elevator to stop on the floor where it is not necessary to stop.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems, and an object thereof is to provide an elevator that can cancel a command once input and input a new instruction.

[0007]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 Means for Solving the Problems The present invention for achieving the above object is a stop floor registration means for registering a stop floor of an elevator, and a release means for canceling the registration of any stop floor registered in the stop floor registration means. And an control means for controlling the operation of the elevator according to the stop floor registered in the stop floor registration means.

[0008]

[Action]

 When you use the buttons installed in the transport basket or on each floor to enter a command into the elevator, if you accidentally press a button other than the button that corresponds to the desired operation, it will be entered because you pressed it by mistake. You can cancel the order.

[0009]

【Example】

 Examples will be described below. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the construction of an elevator according to the present invention. 2 is an external view of the operation buttons installed in the elevator. Further, FIG. 3 is a flow chart showing the flow of operations relating to input and cancellation of commands.

As can be seen from the configuration shown in the block diagram of FIG. 1, an operation button 12 for the user is installed in the transport basket 11 where the user is boarding. A call button 13 for stopping the transport basket 11 on the floor is installed on each floor. These buttons are connected to the CPU 14, and commands can be input to the CPU by pressing the buttons, and the input signals are processed by the CPU 14. The CPU 14 controls the drive device 15 and the elevator based on the processing result and the operation status of the elevator. A storage device 16 for storing the processing result is connected to the CPU 14.

FIG. 2 shows the appearance of the operation buttons 12 installed in the transport basket 11. A user on the transport basket 11 operates the elevator by pressing the operation button 12. As can be seen from the figure, there are an open button 21 and a close button 22 at the bottom, and by pressing these, an open / close signal is issued, and the door of the elevator can be opened and closed. Further, there are a plurality of stop floor designating buttons 23 on the upper portions of the opening / closing buttons 21 and 22 in which the values corresponding to the floor values in one-to-one correspondence are written. The stop floor designation button 23 has a lighting state and a non-lighting state, and when it is pressed once, the lighting state can be turned off, or the unlit state can be turned on, that is, the state can be reversed. .. The fact that the stop floor designation button 23 is lit means that the transport basket 11 is stopped on the floor marked on the button, and the fact that it is in the unlit state means that the button is off. It indicates that it will not stop at the floor marked in. Therefore, the user turns on the button corresponding to the desired floor, that is, the button having the floor value that the user is going to go to, to stop the transport basket 11 at the floor where he / she wants to descend. You can get off.

The call button 13 installed on each floor also has such a lighting or extinguishing state, and the state is reversed each time the button is pressed. Then, if it is turned on, the transport basket 11 can be stopped on the floor where the call button 13 is installed.

Further, the CPU 14 can judge the type of the pressed button or the signal, and can judge any of the stop floor designation button, the call button, the open / close button, and the transport container floor stop signal. It is like this. If it is a stop floor designation signal or a call signal, the button that sent the signal at that time is reversed, and if it is a transport container floor stop signal, the stopped floor value is recorded. The stop floor designation button 23 and the call button 13 installed on the floor are turned off. If it is an open / close signal, the signal is sent to a routine for processing the open / close operation. Furthermore, it has a means to judge the state of the button, and this function judges whether each button is in the lighting state or in the non-lighting state.

It should be noted that the operation of the CPU 14 will be described only with regard to the processing relating to the registration and cancellation of the stopped floor. Processing other than this is assumed to have been processed in the CPU, and the processing result is treated as one of the input signals.

The elevator is configured as described above and operates according to the flow shown in the flowchart of FIG. Next, the operation sequence will be described. This embodiment will be described using an elevator installed in a 10-story building, and the description will start from the moment the user boards and the door is closed. At this time, it is assumed that there is no button that is lit.

At this time, the elevator is in a stopped state, and the CPU 14 is in the start shown in the flowchart of FIG. 3, that is, in the state of waiting for input. Here, if the user in the transport basket 11 presses the button labeled 7, that is, the 7th floor button 24 from the stop floor designation buttons 23 (S1), the CPU 14 pushes the button. Is recognized as the stop floor designation button 23 (S2), and the state of the 7th floor button 24 is reversed (S3). Subsequently, the CPU 14 determines that the 7th floor button 24 is in the lit state (S4), and registers the numerical value 7 written on the 7th floor button 24 in the storage device 15 as the stop floor value (S5). That is, the 7th floor became the stop floor. When the registration is completed, the CPU 14 is again in the input waiting state. At this point, only the 7th floor is registered as the stop floor, so the transport basket 11 begins to rise to the 7th floor. When the vehicle arrives at the 7th floor and stops, a signal indicating that the vehicle has arrived at the 7th floor is input to the CPU 14 (S1). The CPU 14 determines that this signal is a floor stop signal (S2), and turns off the 7th floor button 24 and the call button 13 installed on the 7th floor (S6). Thereafter, it is determined that the 7th floor button 24 and the calling button 13 installed on the 7th floor are in the off state (S4), and the stop floor registration is canceled (S7).

However, before arriving on the 7th floor, for some reason, it is necessary to change to a direct flight to the 9th floor. In order to realize this, first, the ninth floor button 25 is pressed to register the ninth floor as a stop floor in the storage device. The process of this operation is similar to the procedure described above. At this time, the 7th and 9th floors are registered as the stop floors. Next, when the 7th floor button 24 is pressed (S1), the CPU 14 determines that the pressed 7th floor button 24 is the stop floor designating button 23 (S2), and turns the 7th floor button 24 from the lit state to the unlit state. (S3). Then, in the next process, it is determined that the 7th floor button 24 is in the off state (S4), and the 7th floor is released from the stop floor registration (S7). Therefore, only the 9th floor is registered as the stop floor, and the transport basket 11 goes straight to the 9th floor. After that, when the transport container arrives at the 9th floor and stops, a signal that the container has stopped at the 9th floor is input into the CPU 14 (S1), and it is determined that the signal is a floor stop signal (S2). The floor button 25 and the call button 13 installed on the ninth floor are turned off (S6). Thereafter, the CPU 14 confirms that the 9th floor button 25 and the call button 13 installed on the 9th floor are in the off state (S4), and the 9th floor is released from the stop floor registration (S7).

The above description is for the case where the 9th floor button 25 is pressed first. On the contrary, when the 7th floor button 24 is pushed first, the stopped floor is not registered at all. In such a case, the transport basket 11 stops at the nearest floor where it can be stopped.

If the input signal (S1) is an input signal generated by pressing the open / close buttons 21 and 22, the signal is output to the processing system that controls the open / close operation (S8). ), After the processing is completed, the state of waiting for input is again obtained.

It should be noted that means other than the present embodiment may be used as long as the stop floor once registered can be changed. For example, if the stop floor designating button that is lit and indicates that the corresponding stop floor is registered is pressed for a certain period of time, for example, 3 seconds or more, it is determined that the signal is for canceling the registration. Such means may be used, or if it is pressed twice or more within a certain period of time, for example, within 0.8 seconds while in the lighting state, it may be judged as a registration cancellation signal. ..

Further, a release button is provided in addition to the conventional button, and while the button is being pressed, if the button in the lit state of the stop floor designation button is pressed, the floor that has been registered as the stop floor will be registered. The floor may be released.

In addition, immediately before stopping on the floor registered as the stop floor, for example, 5 seconds before the stop, the stop floor designating button corresponding to the floor is made to blink, When the blinking stop floor designation button is pressed while blinking, a means for canceling the registration as the stop floor may be used.
