Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Technical Field of the Invention] This invention relates to an improvement in a device for reserving elevator service.

[Prior art]

Conventionally, when an elevator car installed in a building is to be dispatched to the main floor when dispatched or to an executive floor when necessary, an employee in a control room issues a dispatch command using a switch. However, in this case, the attendant must operate the switch at the scheduled time, and there are other switches such as a switch for dispatching a vehicle to the meeting room, a switch for disconnecting the service, etc., and many switches must be operated at the scheduled time. I have to remember to operate it, which puts a lot of mental strain on me. Therefore, as shown in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 52-144944, for example, a calendar day signal is generated by setting one clock to m5, thereby automatically performing driving at work, etc., which is constant every day. A method has been proposed that eliminates the need for this operation.

However, it is often necessary to change the scheduled time set by the clock, and the problem cannot be resolved. , many special operational requirements are emerging. Further, after a building is in operation, the main floor is often changed or executive floors are moved, and more flexible elevator operation is required.

Therefore, recently, the currently widespread personal computers (
It has been proposed to use a computer (hereinafter referred to as a personal computer) as an input device to arbitrarily set or cancel the number of cars to be allocated, waiting floor, time, etc.

However, in the reserved operation using the above input device, the car that received the door-open standby command may be traveling to the designated floor even though the direction of service at the designated floor has been determined and the car is in operation at the time of receiving the door-open standby command. , the service direction is not displayed at the designated floor landings. Therefore, at a landing on a designated floor, the passenger often presses the landing button in the same direction as the car service direction in vain.

[Summary of the invention]

This invention improves the above-mentioned problems, and uses an input device that is manually operated to reserve and dispatch a car to a designated floor in advance. An elevator that notifies the operating direction of the waiting corner, thereby eliminating the need for the staff to operate the switch each time, and preventing unnecessary pressing of the boarding button on the designated floor. The purpose is to provide a service reservation device for

The reservation dispatch control signals for the designated number of cars waiting with the door closed, the designated car number waiting with the door closed, and the designated car number waiting with the door closed are cleared (see Figure 7 for details).5 In step 02, the scanning reservation number j is initialized to zero. In step 5, the scanning reservation number j is updated to l. In step (b), it is determined whether the j-th child column YTj is not "0", and if it is not "0" (the reservation is If there is), in step (2) it is determined whether all the date specifications in the reservation field YTj are "0", and if all are rOJ, it is assumed that it is to be done every day and the process jumps to step (b). In step (to), determine whether the date in the reservation field YTj matches today's date DA read from the automatic calendar (3), and if it matches, in step (b), set the start time and end of the reservation @YTj. It is determined whether the times are the same and it is checked whether the reserved operation is to be selected only once. If the reserved operation is repeated only once, follow the steps (to) to set the automatic calendar (3).

If the current time J is between the start time and end time, enter @12 in the reservation field YTj in step (2).
~The contents of the 1st and 7th columns are converted into reservation dispatch signals (
(For details, see Figure 8) If it is determined in step 5 (b) that the reserved operation is only once, it is determined in step 1 9I whether the reserved time matches the current time - time J, and if they match, step ( Proceed to (to) (
Although it is assumed that the operation is selected only once, it is expected that the control signal will continue to be output for %1 minute and the operation will be performed many times, but since the operation is not normally completed in 1 minute, first ), thus proceeding to step Oυ,
It is determined whether all reservations have been scanned, and if not scanned, the process returns to step (to) and repeats steps (to) to ■.

A. Reservation dispatch control signal clear program C31) Initialize the scanning method m to zero in step (31a), and in step (31t)

If the door is on standby with the door closed, proceed to step (39g).

Next, the operations of the programs shown in FIGS. 9 to 11 (stored in the ROM of the storage device (IIB)) detect floors requiring closed doors, create additional door-closed assignment signals, and assign closed-door waiting assignments. This will be explained using a flowchart.

Fig. 9 shows that when the number of cars is specified for waiting with the door closed, it is checked whether the number of allocated cars satisfies the specified number for the specified floor, and if it is not satisfied, the allocation program is executed.
This is to issue a signal for additional allocation of door openings.

The scanning technique m is initialized to zero in steps (51) and (δ2), and the scanning technique m is updated to 1 in step (52). Steps (5)
In 3), it is fully determined whether the designated number YCDm of waiting with the door closed to the m floor is not zero, and if it is not zero (if the number is specified),
In step (54), the number of units AKC [
It is determined whether n is greater than or equal to the designated number YCDfn, that is, whether the designated number is satisfied. This command number AKC
m is the number of door closing service commands DCmn (n is the car number) of the m floor that are scanned over all cars to find the number of "l" characters, but the program will be omitted. If the conditions of step (54) are not satisfied, perform step 1 (54).
In step 5), set the door closing additional assignment signal ATCm to the m floor to "1" K. If there is no designation of the number of vehicles waiting to close the door to the 3 m floor, or if the conditions of step (54) are satisfied, proceed to step (5'i
'), the door closing additional assignment signal ATOrn to the m floor is reset to "0". In step 5 (56), it is determined whether all floors have been scanned. If not, the process returns to step (52).
Repeat steps (52) to (57).

FIG. 10 is a waiting-with-door allocation program, which includes additional allocation processing by specifying the number of waiting cars with doors closed and allocation processing for a designated car number.

The scanning technique is initialized and updated in steps (61) and (62). In step (63), it is determined whether a hall call has been registered on the m floor, that is, whether the up call signal HUln or the down call signal HDm of the m floor is "1"5.If it is not registered, step (b) In step 64), it is determined whether the designated car number YOKm for waiting to close the door to floor m is not zero, and if it is not zero (if there is a designated car number), the above car number YCKm is set to car number n in step (65). n@ on the m floor when
It is determined whether the door closing service command DCmn of the machine is "l", that is, whether the command has been given (assigned) to the designated car.

If no request has been made, the specified car number YOKm is sent in step (66).
e Set the selected car number KAGO (the command for the specified car is processed before the number of cars command) Set the selected car number KAGO to the car number n in step 5 (67), and issue the assignment command for the car No. n on the m floor. AKUmn is also a downlink allocation command A K
D mn and Door Closing Service Command DCmn are each "1".
In step 5 (68), the additional allocation prohibition signal NASKn for the selected car is set to rlJ, and from now on, allocation to this car is prohibited so that the car can wait with the door closed on the specified floor. This additional allocation prohibition signal NASKn is reset for the car for which all door closing service commands Dcmn have been canceled.

If the door closing service command DCmn is "l" on any floor, the additional allocation prohibition signal NASKn for that unit is r.
It remains as lJ (the program is omitted).

In step (64), m floor door closed standby designated car number Y, OK
Is it determined that 111 is zero (there is no designated basket)?
Or, in step (65), the door closing service command DCmn is "1"
When it is determined that the item is (ordered to the specified car),
In step (69), the door closing additional assignment signal ATcm to the m floor is
If it is "1", the procedure ('i
Go to 'o). In step (70), the door closing service command for the m floor is selected (see Figure 11 for details).3 If the selected car number KAGO is zero in step (71), the process advances to step (67). If an up call or down call is registered on the m floor in step (63) b, all door closing service commands DCDC to the m floor are reset in step (72) ml'
m2 This means that when the m-floor landing call is registered,
This is to ensure that the service can be immediately allocated and serviced. In addition, the door closing service directive on all floors DOInn
The prohibition of additional allocation for the car that has become roJ is immediately canceled after the process shown in FIG. 10 (the program is omitted). In step (73), a decision is made to scan all cars.

FIG. 11 is a detailed program for selecting a car to which the door closing service command of FIG. 1o is given.

In this process, the car that is expected to be able to wait with the door closed on the mth floor as soon as possible is selected.

The method compares the longest expected arrival time for each car and selects the shortest one. Note that the selection means is not limited to this.

In step (○a), first set the selected car number KAGO to zero. 5 steps ('i'Oc) + C'70 to set the expected arrival time TY of the selected destination to the maximum value in step ('70b)
In step d), the scanning machine initialization and updating are performed. procedure(

Determine whether the door closing service command Do is "1" in f), that is, whether n@machine n is receiving the door closing service command on floor m5.
If you have not received a door closing service order, 1 step (7og)
It is determined whether the upstream expected arrival time TYDmn is longer than the downstream expected arrival time TYDmn, and if the upstream is longer, the upstream expected arrival time TYDmn is determined in step (yoh).
It is determined whether mn is less than or equal to the estimated arrival time TY. If the estimated arrival time is less than TY, follow the steps ("
joi) to select machine n and set it to car number KAGO.

The expected arrival time TY is set to the expected upstream arrival time TYUmn (shortest value). In addition, if it is determined in step (70g) that the expected downlink arrival time TYDfnn is less than or equal to the expected upstream arrival time TYUmn, then in step (70k) it is determined whether the expected downlink arrival time TYDmn is less than or equal to the previous expected arrival time TY. Similarly, in step C'701), it is determined whether to select the n-th car, and in step 5 (7o1), a decision is made to scan all the n-th cars by setting the expected downbound arrival time TYDmn of the n-th car to the shortest value.

Next, the operation of detecting floors requiring door-open standby and creating and assigning additional door-open assignment signals is performed using the flowchart of the operation of the program (stored in the ROM of the storage device (IIB)) shown in Figures 12 to 15. I will explain.

Figure 12 shows that when the number of cars is specified for waiting with the door open, it is checked whether the number of allocated cars satisfies the specified number for the specified floor, and if it is not satisfied, the number of cars allocated to the specified floor is checked. This is to issue an open additional allocation signal.

Initial setting and updating of the scanning floor is performed in steps (81) and (82). In step (83), it is determined whether the designated number of vehicles YODUm for waiting with the door open on the m floor is not zero, and if it is not zero (if there is a designated number), in step (84), the designated number of vehicles waiting with the door open on the m floor is determined. The assigned number of machines AKOUrn is the specified number of machines YODU.

If the number of vehicles waiting to open the door for the m-floor up is not specified, or if the conditions of step (84) are satisfied, the m-floor up door-opening additional allocation signal ATOUm is reset to "0" in step (86). Ru. Step (8)
) to (90) are for downlinks, and all-floor scanning is determined by five steps (91) that can be explained in the same way as for uplinks.

FIG. 15 shows an allocation program for uplink calls. This program includes an addition/allocation process for specifying the number of waiting cars with doors open and an allocation process for the designated car number of waiting cars with doors open.

In steps Doi) and '(102), the scanning floor is initialized and updated. In step (103), it is determined whether the car number YOKUm designated for waiting for the door to open on floor m is not zero, and if it is not zero (if there is a designated car number), the above car number YOKUm is changed to car number n in step (104). Assignment command for machine n on floor m when set (if this signal is "1",
It is determined whether AKUmn (the car serves floor m) is "1", that is, whether the specified car has been allocated. If it is not assigned, specify the designated car number Y in step (105).
Let OKUm be the selected car number KAGO (allocation of the designated car is processed prior to designation of the number of waiting cars with doors open and allocation to normal calls). In step (106), set the selected car number KAGO to car number n, and

In step 10), it is determined whether the number AKO'Um of ascending door opening service commands for floor m is zero, and if it is determined to be zero (no assigned car), in step 111, the number of vehicles for ascending door opening service on floor m is selected. (Details in Figure 15) 5 If the selected car number KAGO is not zero in step (112), step (106) is performed.
). If it is determined in the step (109) that there is no up call on the m floor, or that there is already an assigned car in the step (110), an additional allocation signal A to the up call on the m floor is sent in the step (113').
Determine whether TOUm is rlJ. If it is "1", proceed to step (Ill). In step (114), it is determined whether to scan all floors.

Figure 14 is a program for downlink calls, with steps (12
1) to (134), which are the same as in the case of the up call in FIG. 13, so a detailed explanation will be omitted.

However, each symbol shall be read as "UJ" and "D".

FIG. 15 shows a detailed program for selecting whether to use upstream or - for one request (in'). The detailed program for selecting the downlink in step (131) is obtained by replacing the symbol rUJ with rDJ in FIG. 15 (not shown). In this process, the car that is expected to respond to the mth floor earliest is selected as the assigned car. In addition,
The selection means is not limited to this.

In step (lla), the selected car number KAGO is first set to zero. 5 steps (1llc), (l1l

It is determined whether n is less than or equal to the estimated arrival time TY. If the estimated arrival time is less than TY, follow the steps (1l
1h), select car number KAGO and set the expected arrival time TY to the expected upstream arrival time TYUmn (shortest value) to determine whether to scan all the cars in 5 steps (1lli).

Next, the release of the assignment command and the release of the door opening service command are performed using the program shown in FIG.
A flowchart of the operation (stored in M) will be explained below.

In steps (141) and (142), the scan corner is initialized and updated. In step (143), the car position of scanning car n is set to scanning floor m. In step 5 (144), it is determined whether the door closing service command for car n on floor m is "l".

If it is determined that it is "0" (the m floor is a floor that does not receive the door closing service command), it is determined in step (145) whether the nth car is in the upstream service. If the uplink service is in progress, it is determined in step (146) whether the nth machine has started closing the door, and if the door has started closing, the uplink assignment command A KU mn for floor m is issued in step (14'7). and Door Opening Service Directive D

Next, the main points of the door opening/closing command operation are explained in the program shown in Figure 18 (
The operation of the storage device (stored in the ROM of the IOB) will be explained using a flowchart.

In step (181), the car position floor is set to the scanning floor rnK.

In step (1B2), it is determined whether the car is in the zone where the car door can be opened, and if it is in the zone, it is determined in step (183) whether the door is closed.If it is determined that 5 doors are closed, it is determined in step (184). ), it is determined whether the door opening button has been pressed, and if it has not been pressed, it is determined in step (185) whether the door-opening button has been answered. If you are not answering the car call, follow the steps (
In step 186), it is determined whether the ascending assignment command AK Um or descending assignment command AKDm for floor m is rlJ, and if it is not "1" (if it is not the assigned floor), the door opening command is set to "L ” and the door close command erHJ. In other words, the door stops closing. When it is determined in step (186) that floor m is the assigned floor, it is determined in step (1B'7) whether the door closing service command for floor m is "1". If it is "1", the door will stop closing in step (18B).

If it is "O", the door open command is set to "H" and the door close command is set to "L" in step (189). In other words, if it is determined that the door opens - C in step 3 (183), which stops the door opening, then in steps (190) to (194) it is determined that the door is not in operation and the door open button has not been pressed. If the door safety device is not operating, the door close button is not pressed, and the door opening time has expired, the door will stop opening in step (189). Descriptions of other procedures will be omitted.

In the embodiment, calendar reservations are made using only dates, but it is also possible to easily make reservations using days of the week. In addition, although a personal computer was used as the input device Q, it is also possible to input information by connecting it to a computer dedicated to the building, and even a device equipped with a dedicated input device is more effective. Although it was assumed that the light was also used as an arrival warning light, it could also be a dedicated one, and it would be even better if it was announced by voice.
Although the notification is made for each car, it is only necessary to use one alarm in the landing area that is common to each car.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, in this invention, the reserved vehicle dispatch signal of the elevator is made to last by the input capobutton that is manually operated, and from this reserved vehicle dispatch signal, a reserved vehicle dispatch control signal is generated corresponding to the date and time, and the car is moved to the designated floor according to this signal. When an elevator is dispatched to the floor and a door-open standby command is issued, the alarm on the designated floor notifies the driver of the waiting direction, which saves the staff the trouble of operating the elevator each time and makes elevator reservations and dispatch possible. This also makes it possible to prevent unnecessary pressing of landing buttons on designated floors.
