Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Techniques of the invention 149 minutes/shuttle] The present invention relates to an elevator group management control method for controlling a plurality of elevators as a group, including a general passenger elevator with a function for operating people with disabilities. .

[Technical background of the invention]

General passenger elevator with disabled operation function (hereinafter referred to as a passenger elevator, shared elevator, or sleeper elevator, which is a wheelchair-accessible elevator that is designed to be usable by disabled persons who use city chairs. (simply referred to as "disabled elevators") are equipped with call buttons (switches) for general users at the landing and in the cars, as well as various devices on the buttocks, as well as at a height of 1 meter above the floor at the entrance and exit for each floor. A call button (switch) is provided at the landing for people with disabilities, and in response to the call from this button, the opening time of the door when the car lands on the floor is extended to 10 seconds. There are operation doors with handicapped marks on the left and right sides of the inside, and each operation panel has one door above the floor.
A function for placing a car call button for people with disabilities at a height of approximately 100 m, and extending the opening time of the door to, for example, 10 seconds when the car lands on the floor in response to the button's operation. is provided.

In elevators using the group management method 1, which controls multiple elevators behind the handicapped elevator as a group, if the hall call is common, the hall call will be changed as soon as the elevator reaches its final stage. 2) Since you have to fix the button and wait, there is an increased chance that the general elevator will stop and go up.This will result in the 3 button being pressed. When pressed, this elevator is disconnected from 11f and responds to a call for a disabled person, so that there is no need to press a call for any purpose.

However, if we do this, if there are multiple elevators for people with disabilities, there will be an economical problem in that each elevator will have to have its own dedicated call button. ), there is a problem that the waiting time increases. In addition, a general call line from the same floor and in the same direction as the registered call line for the disabled can be accessed! If the elevator is called, the answering machine for the disabled person's call and the answering machine for the general call will be changed to F4, and the two elevators will be called 1" for the call in the direction between floors. This resulted in a problem in that the driver had to respond to the emergency call and was forced to drive wastefully.

[Ii Ai's purpose]

The purpose of the present invention is to control the elevator l(τ, 1jjE, 1jjE,
To provide a 1)) management and control method for an elevator that eliminates the occurrence of useless 11F rotations and improves service and operational efficiency.

[From Ej month! ;! f; Required

The present invention is a group control system that controls a plurality of elevators adjacent to a handicapped elevator.
It is necessary to answer the i-person call and press the hall call many times.
ff: No, if the general call number on the same floor is registered, if the person is already assigned to the 11'C' column, the general call will be given priority to the handicap call allocation number Ida, 1. Assign 4'5 i; 4B, 21. ing.

The system controls the movement of each car based on information about each car in the hall. Furthermore, even when a plurality of parallel signal lines are used to connect these signal lines, they are shown as one signal line in the figure.

At the same time as the trench, the bits <10> seconds of the index of the hole call to be allocated in the HCT 24 and the allocation pits <0> to <3> corresponding to the machine number are set. . Then, when the car to which the general call has been assigned decelerates in response to the general hall call assignment, the car position signals from the car position selectors 14A to 140 are used to indicate 1. The call registration is cleared and bit <11> of HCT 24 is also reset.

Set the bit (any of bit <0> to bit <3>) corresponding to the corresponding issue fJK of 23 (held in memory) (hereinafter referred to as KCTJ), and the car will service the registered floor. When the car position is completed, the car position signal is obtained from the penalty selectors 148 to 14D, the car call registration is erased, and the bit corresponding to the car number of KCT23 is also reset.12 to 120 are in the car state It is a buffer, and contacts 16A such as a relay that closes when a door is opened, including a car pre-up signal from selectors 1415-140.

After completing these steps, the hole index is incremented by l+1'l, and the same process is performed for the next boarding hall. When the processing of all the landings is completed, the distributed standby processing, advance command processing, and other processing are completed, and the process returns to the repeat start point R8, and these processings are repeated.

If the car is serviceable, check the HOT bit (8) corresponding to the hall index, that is, the disabled call assignment bit. If it is a machine assigned to a handicapped person, that number is designated as a machine assigned to a general call, and a general call assignment output (number car call registration, normal door closing time) is output. 1, if the car is not assigned to the handicap call, calculate the evaluation value using the car information rccTJrKCTJ, add up the evaluation values of all cars, select the highest and C cars for the general hall call, designate it as the general call allocation car, and assign it. Give output. At the same time, bit 10 of HC'r and the general call assignment bit corresponding to that machine (bit 0 of HCT)

According to the car information stored in the car, if it is a serviceable car in the group, and if that car is a handicap elevator (it is set in advance in the ROM (read-on memory) whether it is a handicap elevator or not), that car The evaluation values for all machines are calculated using the car report table OCT, KCT, etc., and when the evaluation values for all machines are obtained, it is time to move on! The optimum machine number for the chapter call is selected and designated as the assigned machine number, and output for the handicapped call assignment is output. At the same time, KHCT bit 8〉 and the handicapped call allocation hit corresponding to that machine number 〈4〉～

Note that the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments shown in the drawings. Only for commercial examples 1
It is possible to make many changes to the gist and implement it without being overlooked.

[Effects of the Invention] According to the present invention, even if there is one or more group-controlled elevators including elevators for people with disabilities, it is possible to select an assigned machine from among the elevators for people with disabilities to respond to a call from a person with a disability. There is no need to press the hall call button over and over again, and since the handicapped call assignment machine is given priority as the general call assignment machine, unnecessary elevator rolls are eliminated, improving service to passengers and making elevators more efficient. Accordingly, it is possible to provide a group management control method for elevators that can realize efficient operation.

Claims (1)

[Claims] A group of elevators that controls a plurality of elevators as a group called general passenger elevators with a function for operating people with disabilities, and selects the most suitable elevator to respond to a common hall call that occurs in the halls, distinguishing between those for the disabled and those for the general public. In the management control method, when a hall call for a disabled person occurs, the highest number of elevators with a handicapped operation function is selected and assigned to the hall call for the person who murmurs, and the handicapped person who has already registered a hall call for a handicapped person is assigned to the elevator. For general hall calls that occur when there is an elevator that has been assigned a hall call, priority will be given to the elevator that has already been assigned a disabled hall call! Timely elevator group management control method.
