Description

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

[Prior art]

Conventionally, when an elevator car installed in a building was to be dispatched to the main floor when dispatched, or to an executive floor when necessary, a staff member in the control room would give the command to dispatch the elevator car to the main floor. ing. 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 do the operations, which puts a mental burden on me. Therefore, as shown in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 52-141944, for example, a clock is used to generate a calendar date signal, and this is used to automatically perform driving at work, etc., which is constant every day. A device has been proposed that eliminates the need for operations by an attendant.

However, it is often necessary to change the scheduled time set by the clock, and the problem has not yet been resolved. However, in recent years, many special operation requests have appeared, such as the dispatch of baskets to banquet halls and exhibition halls. Additionally, after a building is in operation, the main floor is often changed or executive floors are moved, so there is a strong demand for more flexible elevator operation.

Therefore, recently 9, the currently widespread personal computers (
(hereinafter referred to as a computer) etc. as an input device, the arbitrary pressure car dispatch platform, waiting floor, etc.

It has been proposed to set and release the time and other settings.

However, if an attendant were to be able to arbitrarily designate a car to be on standby, the number of waiting cars would increase by one, and there is a risk that general elevator service would become extremely poor. This is a particular concern since many elevators have recently become capable of energy-saving pause operation in which the car is paused in order to save power. That is, if a car is suspended due to energy saving and a car waits for a long time for reservation and dispatch, there is a risk that there will be no car available to service general calls. Reserved vehicle dispatch includes automatic dispatch of cars to congested floors and dispatch of cars to executive floors, etc. In the former case, people usually get on board immediately, so unlike reservation dispatch, it can leave immediately and serve another floor, but in the case of the latter, when a vehicle is dispatched to wait for people, the schedule of passengers who should board from the waiting floor is different from reserved dispatch. If the time is changed or the staff sets the time too early, the waiting time for the car is likely to increase, and general elevator service deteriorates.

[Summary of the invention]

This invention improves the above-mentioned problems by artificially reserving and dispatching a car every 1 if J using an input device that can be operated manually, and regulating the number of idle cars for energy saving according to the number of cars reserved and dispatched. It is an object of the present invention to provide an elevator operation reservation device that can eliminate the trouble of an attendant operating a switch at each time, and that does not significantly impair general service even during energy-saving operation. purpose.

First, an overview of the operation will be explained.

The staff operates the entry capotan (1) and inputs the details of the reservation according to the format. Necessary information is displayed on the display (13G) in accordance with this input. -F, the input device 03 is
Transfer the program from the storage device (13H) to the storage device (U3E)
) (This program operates.) The input reservation information is taken into the statistical device (2) via the transmission device (13C1 (12D), and then stored in the storage device (12B).
is stored in Although statistical control has recently become well known as a part of elevator control devices, it is not directly related to this embodiment. In the statistical device (2), the CPU (U2A
) operates according to the program stored in the storage device (12B), reads the 2nd day of the month or the day of the week and time of the current day from the automatic calendar (3), and scans the reservation table YT that has been entered.
Scanning the reservation table YT corresponds the date 2 and time set in the reservation table YT with the input date 1 and time, and extracts only the reservation information to be executed. The reservation contents of these reservation tables YT are converted into reservation operation control signals. The reservation operation control signal is sent to the group management bag M via the transmission device (12c) and (IID).
(11JK is taken in and stored in the memory device (lUB)Ic.Group control device 0]) normally selects the most suitable car from multiple cars in response to the hall call signal from the hall button (6A). It is well known that this is what is being described. The group management device (l) immediately executes the operation given by the reservation operation control signal.Executable operations include:
There are many types of car allocation, selection of operation pattern, change of main floor, change or designation of a specific floor (executive floor, etc.), designation of a service cut-off floor, etc., but in the example, any number of cars can be placed on any floor in any corner. This is about vehicle dispatch. Therefore, the reservation operation control signal becomes a reservation dispatch control signal. The group control device θ°C selects the number of elevators (or designations) specified for the floor specified by the reservation dispatch control signal in accordance with the situation of the elevator. In response to the selection, a service command is given to the floor, and a command is also given as to whether to wait with the door closed or open it in response. These directives apply to transmission equipment (IIC),
(10C) to the car controller. It is taken into 0. The car control device diagram is based on the imported service command for the designated floor. Activate the drive control device (intoxication) to send the car to the designated floor for service and wait with the door closed.Next, the input operation of the reservation table YT is performed using the programs shown in Figures 4 and 5 (storage device jffi (rsa)). ) will be explained using a flowchart of the operation.

Reservation table YTK is 999 of reservation 4f-H001~999
You can now make individual reservations. Each reservation network has a reservation table YTK with a subscript je, Y'l'J (j=OO
1 to 999). For example, YTj (j=
001) contains “ol10080009000120
If j is entered as an ASCII code, it indicates that ``two cars will always be on standby with the doors closed on the first floor from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. on January 10''. Note that if the contents of the date are all "0", it means that it will be executed every day at the specified time, and if the end time and start time are the same, the specified contents will be executed only once. Further, if all the reservation details are rOJ, it means that there is no reservation, and there is no ranking etc. in the reservation number. Furthermore, it is also possible to easily change the date to the day of the week, but this explanation will be omitted.

Now, when the input device a3 operates, the display (
13G), "YOYAKU?" (reservation?) is displayed. Enter capotan (1) in step (a) f) "DYS"
If you enter the characters (meaning display), proceed to step ). "
If DYSJ is not input, proceed to the step bone and select "YES"
If you enter the characters (meaning to make a reservation), proceed to step (c).

If you enter any other characters, return to step The number entered in reservation number j is set in (g).The following steps (a) to (b) are completed.
Returning to step ■υ again, step (a) is the date and time input details program, step (c) is the floor input details program, and step 翑 is the reservation cart (14th and 15th column) input details program. and are shown in FIG. 5, respectively. Hand J@
Proceeding from (2) to hand 1i1i (1), “YOYAKU

When the reservation number (3-digit number) is input in step (3), the input number is set as the reservation number j in step (3). The reservation details YTj of the reservation number input in step 11 (g) are displayed on the display (1
3G), and when rcncLJ (cancel) is input in step (2), all the reservation contents are canceled in step (to) and the process returns to step 12). Also, in step c31, l'-0
If KJ (cancellation not required) is input, the process returns to step 121.1 and ends with only the display of ``YOYAKUJ''.If neither ``OKj'' nor ``clqCLJ'' is input, the process returns to step HK.

B. Input details of floors and directions in the program) Similarly to the above, floors can be stored in steps 1 [(28a) to (2Bc).

C Reservation cart input details program (E) Same as above,
In step 1 @ (29a) to (29c), the number of machines is changed to step (2).
The designated car number is input in steps 9d) to (z9f), respectively.

Next, the program shown in FIG. The operation of the process (stored in the storage device (12B)) will be explained using a flowchart. Note that this program can be repeated only once per minute. Furthermore, it is assumed that the date and time have already been read by another program.

In step 0υ, the previously created reservation dispatch control signals for the designated number of cars waiting with doors closed and the designated car number waiting with doors closed are cleared (see FIG. 7 for details). In step 0, the scan reservation number j is initialized to zero, and in step (c), the scan reservation number J is updated to 1. In step ■, determine whether the j-th reservation aYTj is not "0", and if it is not "0" (if there is a reservation),
In step OQ, it is determined whether all the date specifications in the reservation column YTj are "0", and if they are all "0", it is assumed that it is to be done every day and the process jumps to step 11Fi 17). In step θ6), it is determined whether the date in the reservation column YTj matches today's date DA read from the automatic calendar (3), and if it matches, in step θ, the start time and end time of reservation 4MyTj are determined. It is determined whether or not they are at the same time, and whether or not the reserved operation is to be selected only once is checked. If the reserved action is not only once, hand JIiA
The current time J read from the personal ivJ calendar (3) at (Foundation) is
Whether it is between the specified start time and end time, start time ≦ J less end time (if there is no zero hour between the start time and end time), or start time > end time, The judgment is made based on whether the start time≦J or the end time>J (if midnight is included between the start time and the end time). If the current time J is between the start time and end time, step θ9)
The answers in the 12th to 15th columns of the reservation aYTj are converted into the reservation dispatch signal (see Fig. 8 for details).

If it is determined in step 07' that the reserved operation is to be performed only once, in step - it is determined whether the reserved time matches the current time J, and
If they match, proceed to hand IFtθ9) (Although it is assumed that the movement is selected only once, it is expected that the control signal will continue to be output for 1 minute and the movement will be performed many times, but normally it is 1 minute. Since the operation is never completed, there is no problem at all). In this way, the process proceeds to step (50A), where it is determined i1 whether all reservations have been scanned, and if not, the process returns to step (c) and steps (50A) to (7) are repeated nine times.

A Clear program (b) procedure for reservation dispatch control signal (
Initialize the scanning path m to zero in step 41a), and perform step (41b)

B Procedure for creating reservation dispatch control signal θtatsu (49
In a), a floor name is set in scanning path m. Procedure (49b)
Set the value in the 14th column to the designated number of vehicles YCD in the m-floor door-closed standby mode. Determine whether or not there is a designated car number in step (49c), and if there is a designated car number, proceed to step (49d)
The value in the 15th column is set to the m-floor door-closed standby designated car number YCKm. If there is no specified car number, proceed as follows (49d)
is not executed.

Next, the operation of detecting the floor with the door closed standby designated, creating the door closing additional assignment signal, and the door closing standby assignment operation is performed using the program shown in FIGS. 9 to 11 (stored in the ROM of the storage device (IIB)). This will be explained using a flowchart.

Figure 9 shows that when the number of cars is specified as 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
This is to issue an additional assignment signal for closing the door.

The scanning path m is initialized to zero in steps (51) and (52), and the scanning path m is updated to 1 in step (52). Steps (5)
In 3), it is determined whether the designated machine & YCDm for waiting with the door closed to the m floor is not zero, and if it is not zero (if the number of machines is specified),
Number of vehicles AKCI commanding the m floor to stand by with the door closed in step (54)
It is determined whether n is greater than or equal to the designated number of vehicles@YCDm, that is, whether the designated number of vehicles is satisfied. This command number AKC
The program scans the door closing service command DCInn (n is the number number) for the m floor over all the cars and fixes the problem of the car being "1", but that program will be omitted. If the conditions of step (54) are not satisfied, step (
In step 55), set the door closing additional assignment signal ATCm to the m floor to rlJ. If the number of doors waiting to be closed to the 0 m floor is not specified, or if the conditions of step (54) are satisfied, step (57)
), the door closing additional assignment signal ATC to the m floor is reset to rOJ. In step (56), it is determined whether all floors have been scanned,
If it can't be scanned, it's time! i Return to (52),
Repeat steps (52) to (57).

FIG. 10 is a program for specifying standby with the door closed, which includes an additional allocation process for specifying the number of cars with the door closed and standby, and a process for allocating the specified number to the number.

Initial setting and updating of the scanning path is performed in steps (61) and (e2). In step (63), it is determined whether a hall call has been registered on the m floor, that is, whether the up call signal HU or the down call signal HDm of the m floor is "1". If it is not registered, it is determined in step (64) whether the designated car number YCKm for waiting with the door to the m floor closed is not zero, and if it is not zero (if there is a designated car number), the above car is registered in step (65). When the number YCKm is set to the car number n, it is determined whether the door closing service command DC of the nth car on the m floor is "1"n, that is, the force that has been commanded (assigned) to the designated car. If no command has been given, the designated car number YCK is set as the selected car number KAGO in step (66) (the designated car command is processed prior to the number of car commands). In step (67), the selection number KAGO'i is set to the number n, and the assignment command AKUmn for the machine No.
The assignment command AKDmn and the door-close screw command DCmn are each set to "1". In step (68), the additional allocation prohibition signal NA8Kn 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 at the designated floor.

This additional allocation prohibition signal NASKn is reset for the car for which all door closing service commands DCt[ln have been canceled. If the door closing service command DC+11n is rlJ on any floor, the additional allocation prohibition signal N for that unit
ASKn remains rlJ (the program is shown in FIG. 17). In step (64), the designated car number Y is waiting for the door to be closed on the m floor.
Is it determined that CK is zero (there is no designated basket)?
Or the door closing service command DC is rl with hand IEi (65).
J (the designated car has been instructed) and ln, it is determined in step (69) whether the door closing additional assignment signal A'I'C to the m floor is "1" or not. ``1
”, proceed to step (70). In step (70), the door closing service command for floor m is selected (details are shown in FIG. 11). If the selected car number KAGO is not zero in step (71), the process advances to step (67). m in step (63)
If the name for going up to the floor is registered as the number for going down, the procedure (

D.C.

...Reset everything. This is so that when a hall call for floor m is registered, it can be immediately assigned and serviced. Furthermore, when the door closing service command DC of all floors becomes "0", the prohibition of additional allocation of ln height is determined to be scanned for all machines in the procedure (73), which is canceled after the process shown in FIG. 10.

FIG. 11 is a detailed program for selecting a car to which the door closing service command shown in FIG. 10 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 longer expected arrival time for up and down trips is compared for each car, and the one with the shortest time is selected. It is something. Note that the selection means is not limited to this.

In step (70a), the selected car number KAGO is first set to zero. In step (70b), the expected arrival time TY of the selected destination is set to the maximum value. Scan 5 with steps (qoc), (7oa)
Machine j initial settings and updates are performed. n in step (70e)
It is determined whether the additional allocation prohibition signal ffAsKn of the machine No. 1 is rlJ, and if it is not "l", the door closing service command DCmn is "1" in the procedure (fOf), that is, whether the door closing service command DCmn of the No. Determine whether a service order has been received.

If you have not received a door closing service order, follow the steps (70g)
Determine whether the upper expected arrival time TyUIltIn is longer than the lower expected arrival time TYDmr1, and if the upper is longer, use step (7oh) to determine if the upstream expected arrival time TYUmn is less than or equal to the previous expected arrival time TY. Determine if there is 0
), select car n, set it to corner number -1j KAGO, and set the expected arrival time TY to the expected upstream arrival time TYU (minimum n shortest value) K. In addition, if it is determined in step (70g) that the downbound expected arrival time TYDIIIn is less than or equal to the upstream expected arrival time TYU, then in step (70k), the downlink expected arrival time TYD is less than or equal to the previous expected arrival time TY. It is determined whether there is one, and the nth car is selected in the same manner (tot), and the expected arrival time TYD of the lower p of the nth car is set to the shortest value ln. Step ('70i) determines whether to scan all machines.

Next, the allocation command release operation is performed using the program shown in Figure 12 (
The operation will be explained using a flowchart of the operation (stored in ROM of μB) on the storage device. (Please note that the cancellation of the Door Closing Service Directive is the first
Step (81) t' (82) initializes and updates the scan corner. In step (83), the car position of scanning car n is set to scanning path m. In step (84), it is determined whether the door closing service command for unit n on the m floor is "1", and it is determined as "0".
” (the m floor is a floor that does not receive the door closing service command), it is determined in step (85) whether the nth car is in the upstream service. If you are in the top 9 services,
In step C86), it is determined whether the n unit has started closing the door, and if the door has started closing, the m floor ascending assignment command A is issued in step (87).
Reset KUmn to "0". If it is determined in step (85) that the downlink service is in progress, move 1 [(8B).

(89) is similarly processed. n of floor m in step (84)
When it is determined that the door closing service command for car No. 1 is rlJ, it is determined in step (90) whether the car has stopped and is in a directionless state (responsive to all calls), and then in step (91)
Assignment commands AKUmn, AKDm for upper and lower p of floor m
Reset n to "0". In step (92), it is determined whether to scan all machines. Next, set the number of machines to be stopped for energy saving by using the flowchart of the program (stored in the ROM of the storage device (IIB)) shown in Figures 1 and 14. I will explain.

This is to increase the number of idle cars by one if a hall call with a waiting time of 1 (for example, 60 seconds) or more does not occur continuously for a predetermined period of time T (for example, 100 seconds) or more. Furthermore, when a hall call with a waiting time of one or more occurs in an hour, the number of idle cars is immediately reduced by one.

In step (101), a program is executed to calculate the maximum waiting time WTMX among the hall calls that have just been serviced by the car (details are shown in FIG. 14).

In step (102), it is determined whether the maximum waiting time WTMX is 1 or more in the predetermined time, and if it is less than 1 in the predetermined time, in step (103) the pause synthesis increase timer TC is set to 5E after the elapsed time.
It is counted by adding C (the calculation cycle of the program, for example, 0.1 seconds). In step (104), it is determined whether the timer TO increases the number of idle machines has continued for a predetermined time T1 or more, and if it is determined that the timer TO has continued for a predetermined time T1 or more, the hand +
11! l (105), the number of machines required to be stopped KN is increased by one. Steps (106) and (107) are the number of machines required to be stopped
This is to correct N so that it becomes (management internal error - 1),
In step (106), it is determined that the number KN of cars required to be stopped is greater than or equal to SN within management (the number of cars currently under group management), and if it is greater than or equal to SN, in step (107) the number KN required to be stopped is determined by 1 from the number SN of cars under management. This is set because the number of machines has decreased. Then, step (1)
In step 08), the outage number increase timer TO is set to zero in preparation for the next calculation. In addition, hand 111ff (1o6)
If it is determined that it is less than the management round table &sN, hand l1iii (
lo'7) is not executed. If it is determined in step (102) that the maximum waiting time WTMX is 1 or more in the predetermined time, the number of machines required to be stopped KN is decreased by 1 in step (U09), and the procedure (102) is performed.
Step 10) determines whether the number KN of machines required to be stopped is negative, and if it is negative, immediately correct the number KN required to be stopped to zero in step (111), proceed to step (10B), and stop the machine immediately. The number increase timer Tc is reset to zero and starts counting again from the beginning.

FIG. 14 is a detailed program of the procedure (1o1) in FIG. 13, which extracts the maximum waiting time when a hall call is serviced by a car and canceled.

Clear the maximum waiting time WTMX to zero using procedure (lola). In step (lolb), scanning floor m is initialized to zero, and in procedure (101c), scanning floor m is updated by m+1Ilc. In step (101d), the m-th floor upper call registration signal HUIn is "1".
”, and if it is “1”, step (101e)
Then add the call waiting time (duration time) I('I'Um) to the elapsed time SEC.

In the procedure (old), the m floor upper call registration signal HUm is
", that is, when the call is released, hand Jt4 ('1o
xf), it is determined whether the waiting time H'['Um is greater than or equal to the maximum waiting time WTMX, and if it is, in step (101g), the waiting time HTU on the mth floor is set as the maximum waiting time WTMX. and,
Clear the waiting time HTUm to zero in step (xolh).

The waiting time HTUm is the maximum waiting time WTM in the procedure (lolf)
If it is determined that it is less than X, move to hand J[(lolh).

The procedure (101i) to (lolm) is similar, and regarding the waiting time H'I'Dm of the ml old lower 9 call registration signal HDm,
The maximum waiting time W'['MX is calculated. Procedure (101n
) to determine whether all floors have been scanned, and if they have not been scanned, return to step (lolc) and proceed from step (1o1c) to (101m
) is repeated.

Next, the operation of selecting the energy saving pause mode will be explained using the flowchart of the operation of the program (stored in the ROM of the storage device (IIB)) shown in FIG. 15.

Cars selected as idle are prohibited from further allocation. Once all calls have been answered, the car enters a dormant state. The number of cars that will be prohibited from additional allocation (additional allocation of cars waiting in reserved operation will also be prohibited) is determined by the number of cars that need to be stopped, K, determined in Figure 13.
If N is not satisfied, it specifies whether to newly suspend the car, and it is necessary to check the number of cars that are prohibited from being additionally allocated.It is also possible to check whether the car is on standby due to reserved operation or whether it is an energy-saving idle car.

In step (121), a detailed program 5NASK for counting the number of units for which additional allocation is prohibited is executed. Although the illustration of this detailed program 5NASK is omitted, the additional allocation prohibition car signal N A S K n is checked for all cars from car nK, and the number of cars for which it is "1" is determined from the additional side a M to car car tIKNSKH. Set to . In step (122), it is determined whether the number of additionally allocated prohibited car cars - Ill, H8KN is less than the number of cars required to be suspended, KN, and if it is determined to be less than the number of cars required for suspension (insufficient number of cars),
In step (123), scan basket n is initialized to zero, and in step (123), the scanning basket n is initialized to zero.
124), the scanning basket n is updated to n+1. Steps (12)
In step 5), a detailed program 5DCC for detecting the presence or absence of a door-closed standby command for car n is executed. Although illustration of this detailed program 5DCC is omitted, the door closing service command D for each floor of Unit No.
Cmn is checked on all floors for each floor m, and if there is even one floor that is "1", the door close standby command DC is set to "1.Jt".
, -J- If all are "O", door closed standby command DC
rOJ′f: set. In step (126), it is determined whether the door close standby command DC is rOJ, and if it is rOJ, the process proceeds to step (27). In step (U29), it is determined whether the nth aircraft stop selection signal OVKn is "1", and if it is "0", in the step (128) the nth aircraft stop selection signal SVK becomes rlJ, The nth car is selected as the idle car.

Then, in step (129), the additional allocation prohibition signal N for machine n
Set ASK to "YJK" so that the n'8' machine is not additionally assigned.In step (126), the door closed standby command DC is "1", or in step (127), the pause selection signal S is set.
If VK is rlJ, it is determined in step (130) whether all the cars have been scanned, and if they have not been scanned, the process returns to step (U24) and steps (124) to (U27) are repeated. In other words, when there is no door closed standby command and there is no pause selection,
A decision will be made whether to suspend or not.

Next, the operation of canceling the pause selection will be explained using the flowchart of the operation of the program (stored in the ROM of the storage device (IIB)) shown in FIG.

When the number of cars for which additional allocation is prohibited (reservation standby cars are also prohibited from additional allocation) is equal to or greater than the number of cars required to be suspended, KN, determined in FIG. 13, the cars designated as idle are canceled.

In step (131), the detailed program 5NASK for counting the number of units for which additional allocation is prohibited is executed as in FIG. 15.

In step (132), it is determined whether the number of cars N5KN for which additional allocation is prohibited is greater than or equal to the number KN required for suspension, and the number is exceeded (the number exceeds).
If it is determined that this is the case, the scan mode and n are set in steps (:L33) and (134), and the detailed program 5DC for detecting the presence or absence of a door-close standby command for car n is executed in step (135) in the same way as in FIG.
C is executed. If the door closed standby command DC is determined to be rOJ in step (136) and the pause selection signal 5VKn is determined to be "1" in step (137), step (138) is performed.
), the suspension selection signal 5vKn becomes rOJ, and the suspension selection for machine n is canceled. If the door close standby command DC is "1" in step (136), or if the body stop selection number 5vKn in step (13'7) is rOJ f, step (139)
It is determined whether all the cars have been scanned, and if they have not been scanned, the process returns to step (134) and steps (134) to (137) are repeated.

Next, in Fig. 17, we will explain which release operation the additional allocation prohibition is
The operation of the program (stored in the ROM of the storage device ft (11B)) will be explained using the flowchart shown in FIG.

The door closed standby command is canceled and the prohibition of additional allocation is canceled for the car for which the pause selection has been canceled.

In steps (141) and (142), scanning speed n is set, and in step (143), a detailed program 5DCc for detecting the presence or absence of a door-close standby command is executed, similar to that shown in FIG. 15. In step (144), the door closed standby command DC is determined to be "0",
In addition, if the stop selection signal SVK is also determined to be rOJ in step (145), then in step (146) the number N A S I (n becomes "0", and the prohibition of additional allocation is prohibited for the nth machine) is determined. It is released.In step (147), it is determined whether all machines have been scanned. If not, the process returns to step (142) and steps (142) to (146) are repeated.In addition, step (144) The door close standby command DC is Ill, or the pause selection signal SVK is "1" in step (145).
If so, step (146) is not executed.

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 (151), the car position floor is set to the scanning floor m.

In step (152), it is determined whether the car is in the zone where the door can be opened, and if the car is in the zone, it is determined in step (153) whether the door is closed. If it is determined that the door is closed, it is determined in step (154) whether the door open button has been pressed, and if it has not been pressed, it is determined in step (155) whether the call has been answered. If you are not answering the car call, follow the steps (
In step 156), it is determined whether the ascending assignment command AKUm or descending assignment command AKDm for floor m is "1", and if it is not FlJ (if it is not assigned), the door opening command is set to rLJ in step (158), and the door is opened. Let the closing command be FHJ. In other words, the door stops closing. If it is determined in step (156) that floor m is the assigned floor, it is determined in step (157) whether the door closing service command for floor m is "1". If it is “1”, the procedure (1
58), the door will stop closing.

If it is "0", the door open command is set to rHJ and the door close command is set to "L" in step (159). In other words, the door stops opening. If it is determined in step (153) that the door is open, it is determined in steps (160) to (164) that the door is not opening, the door open button has not been pressed all the way, and the door safety device fjf has not been activated. If the door is not opened, the door close button is not pressed all the way, and the opening time when the door is opened has not expired, the door will stop opening in step (159). Descriptions of other procedures will be omitted.

Next, the operation of outputting a stop command to the drive control device (6B) of the elevator (6) will be explained using the flowchart of the operation of the program (stored in the ROM of the storage device (IOB)) shown in FIG. 19.

In steps (1'/1) to (173), it is determined whether the car is in a state where it is okay to pause. In other words, if the car is stopped, has no direction, and the door is closed, the value is 1g? When the procedure (
174), additional allocation prohibited car signal ↑? It is determined whether ASK is "1", and if it is rlJ, the pause command SD is set to "1" in step (175). When the suspension command SD is set to Il, a main circuit cutoff relay (not shown) for suspension is energized, the power circuit and the car internal lighting circuit are cut off, and the car is placed in the suspension state. Since this is a normal operation, details a1 will be omitted. That's sweet, steps (x71) ~ (1'7
If the condition 4) is not satisfied, the suspension command SD is set to "0" in step (17t=), and the suspension command is canceled. Note that the cars that are prohibited from additional allocation are those that have received a door-closed standby command, or those that have received an energy-saving pause command.

FIG. 20 shows another embodiment of the invention and corresponds to FIG. i19. In this embodiment, it is possible to cancel the suspension relatively quickly compared to the reservation waiting basket, and also because it can be activated at the same time as a passenger arrives while waiting. It was designed so that it would not stop even if it ran out.

That is, in step (184) it is determined whether the pause selection signal S V K is "1", and if it is "1", step (185) is performed.
) to set the pause command SD to "1". It is designed so that only the car that receives a suspension command is suspended.

In the above embodiment, the reservation is limited to the case of waiting with the door closed, but the same can be applied to the case of waiting with the door open.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, in the present invention, an elevator reservation dispatch signal is generated by an input port button that is manually operated,
A reserved vehicle dispatch control signal is generated in accordance with the date and time from this reserved vehicle dispatch signal, and the car is dispatched to the designated floor according to this signal.The number of cars to be stopped for energy saving is selected, and this is determined based on the number of cars to be reserved and dispatched. It was designed to be regulated.

This saves the staff the trouble of operating the elevator each time, makes it easy to reserve an elevator, and prevents extreme deterioration of general service due to energy-saving suspension and waiting due to reserved dispatch.
