Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a device for operating an elevator, and more particularly to improvement of responsiveness to long waiting calls.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In an elevator in an office building, calls are concentrated in the down direction from each floor during lunch and when leaving the office.
During such times, we give priority to landing calls and carry passengers to the lower floors, but when there are many users from the upper floors, all elevators are full on the upper floors and the middle floors are full. Users from the floor often cannot use the elevator after waiting.

Therefore, if the response to the hall call becomes long,
By preferentially assigning a car to the hall call,
I try to reduce the number of long waiting calls. However, this is done with a fixed number of baskets,
If there are many waiting passengers on a specific floor and the car stopped at this specific floor is filled with passengers boarding from that floor, the waiting time on floors other than the specific floor becomes very long.

FIG. 2 is a circuit diagram showing a conventional elevator operating device disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 62-175393, which is proposed in order to improve the above problems. In the figure, (1) and (2) are power supplies, (3) is a hall call registration relay contact that closes when a hall call is registered, (4) is a middle floor detection that opens only when the car comes to the middle floor The contacts, (5) are operation relay contacts that open when the car is stopped, (6) are timed relays that operate after a certain time when energized, and (6a) and (6b) are their normally open contacts.

(7a) and (7b) are upper floor detection contacts which are closed when the car is located on a floor above the floor corresponding to the middle floor detection contact (4a), and (8a) and (8b) are load inside the car. Is the second load detection contact that closes when the load exceeds 60% of the capacity, (9) is the first load detection contact that closes when the car load exceeds 80% of the capacity,
(10) is a full load detection relay, (10a) is its normally closed contact, (11)
Is a door closing command circuit that outputs a door closing command when energized, (12)
Is a display device.

The conventional elevator operating device is constructed as described above, and when the load in the car becomes 80% or more (hereinafter simply referred to as "%") of the capacity in the normal state, the first load detecting contact is made.
(9) is closed, the full load detection relay (10) is energized, and the contact (10
Open a). As a result, the door closing command circuit (11) becomes inoperative and the door does not close, so the car cannot start.

Now, it is assumed that the car is stopped on the upper floor, and when the hall call is registered on the middle floor, the hall call registration relay contact (3) is closed. With this, (1) − (3) − (4) − (6)
The-(2) circuit energizes the timed relay (6), which operates after a certain period of time, and the contacts (6a) (6b) are closed. Since the car is currently on the upper floor, the upper floor detection contacts (7a) and (7b) are closed. Here, if the load in the car exceeds 60%, the second
Load detection contacts (8a) and (8b) are closed, and (1) − (8a) − (7a) −
In the circuits (6a)-(2), the fullness detection relay (10) is energized, the contact (10a) is opened, and the door close command circuit (11) becomes inoperative as described above.

At the same time, (1)-(8b)-(7b)-(6b)-(12)-
The circuit of (2) energizes the display device (12), prompting passengers on this floor to pass the limited capacity and exit the car. When the load in the car is reduced to less than 60%, the contact (8a) is opened, so that the occupancy detection relay (10) is deactivated and the contact (10a) is closed. With this, the door closing command is output, and the car departs in the down direction.

When the car descends and the above hall call is registered and the time relay (6) stops at the middle floor where it operated, both the middle floor detection relay contact (4) and the operation relay contact (5) are opened. Therefore, the timed relay (6) is deenergized and the contact (6a) is opened. The energization of the fullness detection relay (10) is now
Depending on the closing of (9), the full condition will be 80% as usual.

In this way, when the car is on the upper floor and a long waiting call is generated on the middle floor, the full condition is set to 80.
From 60% to 60% to limit passengers getting in,
There is a boarding allowance inside the car to allow boarding on the middle floors and to give convenience to boarding from the middle floors.

Some circuits have a circuit in case a long waiting call occurs on a plurality of floors. In this case, a specific floor relay having the same specifications as the time relay (6) is used, and the normally open contact of this time relay is connected in parallel with the contact (6a).

[0012]

In the conventional elevator driving apparatus as described above, when the car is on the upper floor,
When a long waiting call for a certain time or more occurs on the middle floor, the full condition is changed so that the waiters on the middle floor can board, so if the hall call is registered on multiple floors, the floor near the upper floor Then, for example, although it takes a long time to reach the basement, the waiting passenger does not always get into the car.

Further, when a specific customer such as an important customer registers a landing call on a specific floor, there is a problem that the special priority service cannot be given to this specific customer and the customer is kept waiting for a long time. .

The present invention has been made in order to solve the above problems, and even when passengers waiting at the hall are concentrated on a plurality of floors,
It is an object of the present invention to provide an elevator operating device that enables a passenger to get in a car without waiting for a long time and to improve service for a specific customer.

[0015]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided an elevator operating apparatus which passes a hall call when the load in the car is equal to or more than the first load, and waits for the hall call on each floor. Outputs a load limiting signal when is equal to or more than a first predetermined time, and in an elevator that limits the first load to a smaller second load on a floor before each floor,

During the operation of the time zone detecting device for detecting a predetermined time zone and the time zone detecting device, the waiting time for the hall call is determined based on the time from the arrival of the floor to the specific floor. When a predetermined time of 2 or more is reached, the time limiter that outputs the load limit signal is provided.

An elevator operating apparatus according to a second aspect of the present invention is provided with a load limiting switch which is provided corresponding to a specific floor and which outputs the load limiting signal.

[0018]

In the first aspect of the present invention, in the predetermined time zone, the waiting time for the hall call is the second predetermined time or more determined based on the time until the car arrives at the specific floor from each floor. Then, since the passengers are restricted on the floor before this floor, the time from the registration of the hall call on each floor to the arrival at the specific floor has a small difference between the floors.

Further, in the second aspect of the invention, when the load limiting switch is operated, the passengers are limited in the same manner as described above. Therefore, it becomes possible for the operator to request the priority service.

[0020]

【Example】

Example 1. FIG. 1 is a circuit diagram showing one embodiment of the first and second inventions of the present invention, and the same parts as those of the conventional device are designated by the same reference numerals.

In the figure, (31) and (32) are provided corresponding to different floors, respectively, and are hall call registration relay contacts that are closed when a hall call is registered, and (41) and (42) are also cages. Middle-floor detection contact, which opens only when it reaches the middle floor, (51) (52)
Is also an operation relay contact that opens when the car stops, (6
1) (62) is a timed relay that operates after a certain time when it is also energized, and (61a) (61b), (62a) (62b) are its normally open contacts.

In (71a) and (71b), the car is the middle floor detection contact (41).
The upper-floor detection contact that closes when it is on a floor higher than the floor corresponding to the above, and (72a) and (72b) close when the car is on a floor above the floor corresponding to the middle-floor detection contact (42). Upper layer detection contacts, (101a) (101b) are time zone detection relay contacts that open when a predetermined time zone is detected, and (101c) (101d) are also time zone detection relay contacts.

Numerals (102) and (103) are provided corresponding to different floors, and are timed relays similar to the timed relays (61) and (62), each floor being a predetermined floor (for example, the first floor or the basement floor).
It is set to the time required to arrive at a certain time plus (102a), (102b), (103a) and (103b) are normally open contacts, (104a) (104b), (105a) ( 105b) is a load limiting relay contact which is provided corresponding to a specific floor and is closed when an artificially operated switch (not shown) is turned on and is opened when the car reaches this floor.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described. During normal times (time periods other than the predetermined time period), the time period detection relay contacts (101a) (101b) are closed and the same contacts (101c) (101d) are open. Therefore, the operation of this circuit is
That is, since the circuit is exactly the same as the circuit provided with a plurality of timed relays (61) and (62), detailed description thereof will be omitted.

During a predetermined time zone, the time zone detection relay contact
(101a) and (101b) are opened, and the contacts (101c) and (101d) are closed. After that, the fullness detection relay (10) is controlled by the timed relay (102) or the timed relay (103). now,
It is assumed that the timed relay (102) corresponds to the 10th floor, the timed relay (103) corresponds to the 5th floor, and the car is stopped at a floor above the 10th floor.

Here, when the hall call is registered on the 10th floor, the hall call registration relay contact (31) is closed to close the timed relay.
(102) is energized and operates after a lapse of a predetermined time T ₁ , and the contacts (102a) (102b) are closed. The car is currently on the upper floors,
Since the upper floor detection contact (71a) is closed, when the load in the car is 60% or more and the second load detection contact (8a) is closed, the full load detection relay (10) is energized. Thus, the door closing command circuit (11) becomes inoperative. Further, the display device (12) operates.

When the hall call is registered on the 5th floor, the hall call registration relay contact (32) is closed and the timed relay (103).
Is energized and operates after a certain time T _{2 has} passed, and the contact (10
3a) and (103b) are closed. Now, as in the above case, when the load in the car becomes 60% or more and the fullness detection relay (10) is energized, the door closing command circuit (11) becomes inoperative and the display device (1
2) works.

In this way, the timed relay for limiting the load
Since the set times T ₁ and T ₂ of (102) and (103) are set to the time from the 10th floor and the 5th floor to the basement floor, for example, a certain time is added, T ₁ > It is T ₂ . However, the waiting time for the hall call on the 10th floor is shorter than the waiting time on the 5th floor, so there is not much difference between the time when the hall call is registered on the 10th floor and the 5th floor until the arrival at the basement floor. You will be able to receive equal service on each floor.

Next, when there is an important passenger on a specific floor and a hall call is to be registered, if the elevator needs to be serviced to that person preferentially, for example, when the above switch is turned on, the load limiting relay contact ( 104a and 104b are closed.
Now, when the car is on the upper floor than the floor where the hall call is registered and the load inside the car is 60% or more, (1)
-(8a)-(71a)-(104a)-(10)-(2) circuit activates the full-occupancy detection relay (10), and timed relays (61) (62) (102) (103) timed Regardless, immediately limit the load on the upper floor car. The subsequent operation is as described above.

When the car stops at the floor where the above switch is operated, the contact (104a) is opened, and the full condition is again 80% as usual.

Example 2. In the first embodiment, the case where there is a lot of downhill driving, such as at lunch or when leaving the office, has been described.
The same can be done when there are many uphill driving such as when going to work. Also, the long waiting call time can be controlled stepwise by increasing the number of load detection stages.

[0032]

As described above, according to the first aspect of the present invention, the waiting time for the hall call is determined based on the time until the car arrives at the predetermined floor from each floor in the predetermined time zone. When the time is longer than the specified time, passengers are limited on the floor before this floor, so the time from registering a hall call on each floor to arriving at the predetermined floor will be the same for each floor. There is an effect that it becomes possible to receive an even service.

In the second aspect of the invention, when the load limiting switch is operated, the passengers are limited in the same manner as described above. Therefore, it becomes possible for the operator to request the priority service, and the specific person can be requested. There is an effect that the elevator can be given priority service.
