Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an improvement in a notification device installed in an elevator hall.

Normally, an elevator registers a hall call using an up button or a down button installed at the hall, and uses this hall call to summon a car. Then, the passengers who have boarded the arriving car register their call using the destination button installed inside the car, and drive the car to the desired floor. In this way, in conventional elevators, it is necessary to operate the call button at the landing and inside the elevator.

Recently, for example, Jikko 53. As shown in Japanese Patent No. 40843, it has been proposed that a destination button similar to that inside the car is provided for each car at the landing, and a destination floor indicator is provided for each car at the landing. When a waiting passenger registers a destination floor call by operating a landing button, the most suitable car is assigned to each destination call, and the destination floor display shows the assigned destination call. The floor is displayed, and the waiting customer who operates the hall destination button is informed of the assigned car, and the destination floor of each car is also displayed to other waiting customers. In this case, once the destination call is assigned,
Since the call is automatically registered as a car call for the assigned car immediately, the waiting customer does not have to operate the destination button in the car. This is very convenient as it eliminates the problem of being unable to operate the destination button in the car due to congestion in the car. Furthermore, as shown in Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 55-80659, when an assigned car arrives at the floor on which the landing button has been operated, the car call for the floor corresponding to the destination call can be automatically registered. Proposed.

However, the above-mentioned destination floor indicators are too expensive to provide for each floor and each car, and there are practical problems. Only a lantern (hereinafter referred to as HL) is installed,
It is also being considered to record the registered destination calls as upbound and allocate one car to each.

Then, in the same way as when conventional up and down buttons are installed, by lighting up the HL of the assigned car, waiting customers are informed of the service schedule, and each destination is called simultaneously for the assigned car. and register it as a car caller. In this case, since a car is not assigned for each destination call, there is no need for a destination floor indicator, and when the HL lights up, the car that the waiting passenger should board, that is, the car call of the desired floor of the waiting passenger, is automatically registered. can be notified in advance of its arrival.

However, before the allocated car has decided to stop at the landing, the HL is normally lit and used as a service area forecast guide, and when the car is called for a landing call (up call, down call, and destination call) or a car call. When you respond and decide to stop,
Regardless of whether the car is assigned or not, it is used as an arrival guide display to notify the arrival and direction of travel of the car by flashing it. Therefore, when two or more cars including the allocated car have arrived, it is not possible to preferentially guide passengers to the allocated car (therefore, the car call is automatically registered). In other words, if a passenger arrives late at the platform and operates the platform destination button, the car call will be automatically registered based on the destination button he or she operated, since the arrival warning lights of all cars display the same arrival information. This means that it will not be possible to tell which basket is being sent. As a result, a passenger who boarded the car in case it was not the assigned car (therefore, the car call would not be automatically registered) would have to take the trouble of pressing the destination button again in the car. Also,
Car calls are needlessly registered in the assigned car, reducing the efficiency of elevator operation.

If a waiting passenger operates the landing destination button when there are two or more cars that have arrived in response to a car call at a landing that has not yet received a car call, the passenger will be asked to leave the elevator. In consideration of operating efficiency, the number of cars in which car calls are automatically registered is usually limited to one car), so the above-mentioned problem occurs because it is not possible to tell which car should be boarded.

In addition, in elevators that have only up and down buttons at the landing, depending on the use of each floor of the building and the relationship between each floor depending on the use, it may be possible to predict the registration of a 1" or 1" elevator call. For example, in an office building, etc., during lunch time, the up button (or down button) on the floor used as an office is pressed, an up call (or down call) is registered, and the When a car answers, the car call on the cafeteria floor above (or below) that floor is almost always registered.In such cases, when a car answers the hall call, the car call is automatically registered. By registering the car call for the dining room floor, it is convenient for passengers on that floor to save the trouble of operating destination buttons in the car.

However, in this case as well, when two or more cars have arrived including the allocated car, or when two or more cars have arrived in response to a call at a landing without a hall call, the landing button is not pressed. In this case, it will still be impossible to determine which car to board.

Therefore, when a car is arriving, the arrival information display for cars whose corner calls are automatically registered and cars that are not, for example, HL flashes for cars whose car calls are automatically registered, and HL is turned off for cars that are not automatically registered. It has been proposed to change the display format by, for example, changing the display format so that waiting customers can easily identify the cars whose car calls are automatically registered, thereby preventing mistakes.

However, in this case, if a car call is registered and the allotted car arrives in response, the car call will be automatically registered no matter how many cars arrive (more than 2 cars).
This is not a problem because the arrival information display is such that it is easy to identify whether the car is assigned or not, but there is a problem if two or more cars that have responded to the call for that floor arrive at a landing where there is no call. arise. In other words, before the landing button is operated, all of the above cars are displaying exactly the same arrival information, and until which car is selected as the car for automatic corner call registration, the passenger waits until the landing button is operated. I don't know. If a passenger waits too long and selects a landing button or a car behind them, the waiting customer may not notice the car at all,
Even if you notice it, you may have to run towards the basket in a hurry.

This invention improves the above-mentioned problem by selecting the car for which the car call is automatically registered when multiple cars arrive at a landing without a car call, and discriminating it from other cars and notifying the car. The purpose of the present invention is to provide an elevator hall notification device that guides waiting passengers to a car in which a car call is automatically registered, thereby making it easier for the waiting passengers to board the car.

UX) is an upbound priority response car signal that becomes "■]" when car No. 1 is selected as a priority response at the upbound landings on the 1st to 3rd floors (the landings where upbound calls are registered), (93DX)
).

(95DX) is also the downlink priority response car signal for the 3rd and 5th floors, (93trY) and (93UZ) are also 2
This is the priority response car signal on the third floor of Units 3 and 3.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be explained.

Now, suppose that Unit 1 is on the 2nd floor in the upward direction, Unit 2 is on the 1st floor in the upward direction, and Unit 3 is on the 5th floor in the downward direction.
The 3rd floor circuit of the landing call cancellation circuit (14, α) of Unit 1 (
In Figure 5), the third floor car position signal (43X) is rLJ
Therefore, the outputs of the AND gates (830) to (832) are all rLJ, and the third floor up call cancellation command signal (55UX) and down call cancellation command signal (55DX) are both rLJ. The same goes for Units 2 and 3, and the 3rd floor's double call cancellation command signal (55U
Y), (55UZ) and down call cancellation command (No. 8 (
55DY) and (5,5DZ) are also rLJ. The priority response car setting circuit (13B) for the 3rd floor upper direction boarding hall circuit (Fig. 4) shows the
Floor car position signals (43Y) and (43Z) are also rLJ
, so the AND gate (821) ~ (82
3) outputs (821a) to (823a) are all rLJ, NOT gates (871) to (873)
The outputs of all the units are "H", and the outputs of units 1 to 5 are 3.
The uphill priority response car signals (93UX) to (93UZ) are all rLJ.

Passengers entering the landing on the third floor for the first time use the landing control panel QG.
If you press the destination button (4A) on the 4th floor, the output of the OR gate (851) is rLJ, so the memory (8
03) is set and the 4th floor destination call registration signal (304)
is rHJ, the destination button light (4B) is lit, and 4
0 indicating that the floor destination call has been registered, OR
Since the output of the gate (853) also becomes rHJ, the memory (
806) is set, and the third floor up call registration signal (33
U) becomes rHJ, and the third floor upper room name is registered. Then, the allocation circuit (130) allocates the No. 1 car that is expected to be able to respond to the uplink call in the shortest possible time, and when the upper car allocation signal (33UX) on the 3rd floor becomes rHJ,
In the 3rd floor upbound landing boarding circuit (Figure 7) of the HL control circuit (440x) of Unit 1, the 3rd floor upbound arrival display command signal (
5eUxa) is rLJ, and the output of NOT gate (87B) is rHJ, so AND gate (841)
The output of is rHJ. Therefore, the OR gate (86
The output of 1) becomes rHJ, and the 3rd floor uplight of Unit 1 (1)
1tJX) lights up to let you know that Unit 1 has been assigned. At the same time, the chime control circuit of Unit 1 (14FX
), the OR gate (862
) output becomes rHJ, and the pulse generator (8u) becomes 0.
．． A pulse signal that becomes rHJ is emitted for 5 seconds, and the forecast chime (12AX) on the 3rd floor of car No. 1 rings with a single tone, and the assigned car is also notified by sound.

When the first car departs from the second floor and reaches the third floor, the third floor car position signal (43X) in Figure 4 becomes rHJ, and when it decides to stop in response to the third floor up call, the call answering signal ( 61X)
becomes "H". At this time, in the up direction (R (51UX)
) is rH, J ”r, so AND game) (s21
) output (82″La) becomes rHJ, and the output of AND gate (824) also becomes rHJj7, OR gate (85
5) The memory (80 ma) property is set through. Now, the 3rd floor up priority response car signal (93UX) of Unit 1 is r
Becomes HJ. Also, in Fig. 7, ANDge = ) (8
40) is the output of the 3rd floor up arrival display command signal (56U
Xa) becomes "H" and the output of the NOT gate (87B) becomes "↓", so the output of the AND gate (841) becomes rLJ, and the forecast guidance display by the uplight (IIUX) is blocked. On the other hand, the arrival display state setting circuit (58X
), the periodic pulse signal from the periodic pulse generator (58AX) becomes rHJ for 0.5 seconds is an AND game)
The output of (838) is rHJ, so OR game) (
860), the arrival display state command signal (58Xa) also becomes rHJ. Also, for 0.5 seconds when the periodic pulse signal becomes rLJ, the output of the AND gate (838) becomes r
The output of LJ, NOT gate (879) is rLJ, and AN
Since the output of D game) (839) is "L", the arrival display state command signal (5sXa) which is the output of OR gate (860) becomes rLJ 0. In the end, the output of OR gate (861) Q, upstream arrival display command signal (56
While UXa) is “H”, 1 second period (0.5 seconds “HJ
, "L" for 0.5 seconds) becomes a signal to return rI (J rLJ to sb), and the third floor uplight (IIUX) blinks in response to this, indicating that Unit 1 has arrived in the upbound direction.

In addition, in FIG. 8, the arrival display command signal (56σ
) becomes rHJ, the output of AND (843) becomes l'-HJ, and the output of OR gate (863) also becomes r
HJ and the pulse generator (812) are off for 0.5 seconds.
A pulse signal is emitted, and the arrival chime (12BX) on the 3rd floor of car No. 1 is sounded in two consecutive tones, which also announces the arrival of the car.

On the other hand, in the 4th floor circuit (Fig. 6) of the car's call registration circuit (14BX) of the 1st car, when the 1st car arrives at the 3rd floor in the upward direction and the priority response car signal (93UX) hits rHJ, 4
Since the floor destination call registration signal (304) is “H”,
The output of the AND gate (834) becomes rHJ, the output of the OR gate (859) also becomes "H", and the memory (81
0) is set, and the 4th floor call registration signal (24X) goes to "H". As a result, the 4th floor car call button light (24LX) lights up in the car of No. 1, indicating that the 4th floor car call is automatically registered. Therefore, when a passenger on the 3rd floor going to the 4th floor gets into the car of No. 1,
Passengers do not need to press the destination button in the car because the call for the 4th floor has already been registered.0 On the 3rd floor, when boarding and alighting of the first car is completed and the door of the car starts to close, the car will be called as shown in Figure 5. Door open/close command signal (59X) is “H”
becomes. At this time, since the door has not been completely closed, the fully closed signal (54X) is rLJ, the output of the NOT gate (877) is rHJ, and the output of the AND gate (830) is also r.
Becomes HJ. 3rd floor up priority car signal of Unit 1 (931J
Since X) is rHJ, the third floor up call cancellation command signal (55UX) is rHJ by AND gate (831).
becomes.

Now, the output of the OR gate (851) in Fig. 3 is rHJ
Therefore, both memories (80 and so6) are reset, and the 4th floor destination call registration signal (304) is rLJ.
As a result, the registration of the 4th floor destination call is canceled and the 4th floor destination button light (4B) is turned off. -rd, the 3rd floor up call registration signal (33U) also becomes rLJ, and when the registration of the 3rd floor up call is cancelled, the assignment circuit (130)
The upstairs assignment signal (33UX) is reset to rLJ, and when the first car is about to close its door, the call response raw signal (6
ix) becomes rLJ, the AND gate (8
21) output (821a) becomes rLJ, the output of NOT gate (871) becomes rHJ, and the memory (807
) is reset, and the X signal (93UX) becomes rLJ, which is the priority response for moving up to the 3rd floor of Unit 1. On the other hand, in Figure 7, AND
The output of the gate (840) becomes rLJ and the arrival display command signal (56TJXa) becomes "L", so the output of the AND gate (842) becomes rLJ and the output of the OR gate (8
The output of 61) also becomes rLJ, and the third floor uplight (IIT
JX) lights out.

When the car of No. 1 completes closing its door, the fully closed car (in Figure 5)
54X) is a renote to rHJ, AND gate (830)
The output of is rLJ, and the third floor up call cancellation command signal (55UX), which is the output of AND gate (831), is rL
J, and it becomes possible to register for an up-call on the third floor again.

When the car of No. 1 completes door closing and leaves the 3rd floor and reaches the 4th floor, the 3rd floor car position signal (43X) becomes rLJ, and the 4th floor car position signal 4 (44X) in Figure 6 becomes rHJ. Become.

Unit 1 decides to stop in response to the call (24X) on the 4th floor, and when it stops on the 4th floor, the stop signal (50X) is raJ
Therefore, the output of the AND gate (837) becomes rHJ, the memory (810) is reset, the 4th floor call registration signal (2, 4X) becomes rLJ, and the 4th floor call button light (24L/X ) turns off and responds to a call from the fourth floor to notify that the train has stopped.

The above is the operation when the assigned car (car No. 1) responds to a hall call.

Next, assume that while the first car is on the second floor in the upward direction and the third car is on the first floor in the upward direction, the second car responds to a call from the third floor and arrives at the third floor in the upward direction.

In this case, the car position signal (43Y) of the 2nd car in the 4th ward,
Call response raw signal (61Y) and upper multi-directional signal (5xtT
Since Y) is rHJ, the output (822a) of AND game (822) becomes rHJ. On the other hand, OR game)
The output of (85B) is rLJ, and the output of NOT gate (874
) is rHJ, -yet AND game 1- (8
The output (azla) of 21) is rLJ, NOT game)
The output of (8'i'5) becomes "HJ. Now, AND
The selection signal (81) of the second unit which is the output of the gate (828)
3Y) becomes "■(", the memory (SOS) is set via the OR gate (856), and the 3rd floor priority response car signal (93UY) of the 2nd car becomes rHJ. Therefore, the 2nd car is on the 3rd floor. When the train decides to stop in response to the call, the arrival chime (12BY) on the third floor will sound in double tones, and the uplight (IIUY) on the third floor will blink every 0.5 seconds.

Now, while Unit 2 is arriving at the third floor in response to an up call from the third floor, 1. Unit 1 leaves the second floor with passengers going to the third floor, and decides to stop on the third floor in multiple directions. Suppose we did. At this time, in Figure 4, the 3rd floor car position signal (43X) of Unit 1 is "
Note that the call response raw signal (61X) is rHJ, and the uplink signal (51UX) is [uJ, AND gate (8
21) output (821a) becomes rHJ, but since the 3rd floor upper priority response car signal (93UY) of No. 2 car is "H", the selection circuit (813) outputs the OR gate (85B).
Since the output of the NOT gate (874) is rLJ, the output of the AND gate (827) is up to -1 of rLJ, and the first car is selected as the priority response car. The second priority response car signal (93UX) is up to rLJ 1 on the 3rd floor of Unit 1.
Since the output of NOT game (879) in the figure becomes rHJ, the periodic pulse signal from the periodic pulse generator (58BX) becomes rHJ for 3 seconds, AND game) (839)
The output becomes “HJ” and the arrival display status command signal (58X
a) also becomes rHJ.

In addition, for 0.5 seconds when the periodic pulse signal becomes rLJ, the output of the AND gate (839) is rLJ, and the arrival display state command (No. While the signal (5atyxa) is rHJ, the third floor uplight (l], UX) flashes on for 3 seconds and off for 0.5 seconds. In addition, in Fig. 8, the arrival display command signal ( Even if 56UX& ) becomes "H",
Since the third floor ascending priority response car signal (93TJX) remains rLJ, the outputs of the AND gate (843) and OR gate (863) are both rLJ. Therefore, the output of the pulse generator ii:l; (812) does not become rHJ, and even when the first car arrives at the third floor, the arrival chime (12BX) on the third floor is not sounded.

When Unit 1 and Unit 2 are arriving at the 3rd floor in a single direction, a passenger going to the 4th floor enters the boarding area of Submarine 31 and presses the destination button (4A) on the 4th floor. As such, the car call for the 4th floor is registered in car No. 2, which is a priority response car. (At this time, if the up-call car on the third floor (33U) is selected, the allocated car can be selected.) At this time, car 2, which is a priority response car, and car 1, which is not a priority response car, are selected. The blinking pattern of the uplights (IIUY) and (11tJX) of the No. 2 car is changed, so from the time passengers enter the platform, they receive a priority response, or in other words, the car call is automatically registered, but the car is on No. 2 car. You can easily know that. Therefore, after pressing the destination button (4A) on the 4th floor, passengers will be able to board Unit 2 without any confusion.

When Unit 2 starts closing its door and is about to complete closing, Unit 2's 3rd floor up priority response car signal (Q3UY) ld, rLJ
, so the OR gate (8!5S
) becomes rLJ, and the output of the NOT gate (874) becomes rHJ. ! ! , if Unit 1 is responding in the up direction on the 3rd floor, the output of the AND gate (821) (8
21a,) is "1■". Now the AND gate (
The selection signal (813X) of the No. 1 machine, which is the output of will be done.

When the No. 1 car is newly selected for priority response, the uplight (IITJX) on the 3rd floor of the No. 1 car changes from blinking at a 3.5 second cycle to blinking at a 1 second cycle. At this time, the output of the AND game (843) and OR game (863) in Figure 8 becomes rHJ, so the arrival chime (12B) on the third floor
X) sounds in double tones 0 Therefore, even when priority response is newly selected, passengers can easily find priority response by the auditory notification by the arrival chime.

Thereafter, when the destination button (4A) or (5A) for the 4th or 5th floor is pressed, the car call is automatically registered in car No. 1, which is the priority response car.

If Unit 2 had started closing its doors and just before the doors had closed, Unit 3 had departed from the 1st floor with passengers going to the 3rd floor and had arrived at the 3rd floor in the upward direction. The car position signal (43Z), call response raw signal (61Z), and upward direction signal (51UZ) of car No. 3 in the figure are rHJ, so AN
The output (s23a) of the D gate (82) reaches rHJ.

When the priority response car signal (93UY) of No. 2 car is reset to rLJ, the output of OR (858) becomes “L”
Therefore, the output of NOT game (874) becomes rHJ, so as mentioned above, the selection signal of machine No. 1 (813X) which is the output of AND game) (827) becomes rHJ,
Unit No. 1 is selected as the priority response for going up to the 3rd floor. On the other hand, 3
For the machine number, the output of (875) is rLJ
Therefore, the output of AND, ~gate (829) is rL
It remains J. In this manner, when there are two or more arriving cars, the car with the lowest car number is preferentially selected for priority response.

In the above embodiment, when there are 10 cars that have arrived in response to the car call at the same landing area, the car that arrived first is selected as the priority response car, and when the priority response car departs, The new priority response will be determined from among the arriving cars (giving priority to the car with the lowest car number), the arrival information display will be displayed separately from other cars, and the car will be automatically registered as a car call using the landing destination button. This is so that waiting customers can see it at a glance. Therefore, waiting passengers can know from the moment they enter the hall whether a car call using the hall destination button will be registered. , it is possible to board the car with more leeway. FIG. 9 shows another embodiment of the present invention.

In the figure, (24Y) and (24Z) are the call registration signals on the 4th floor of Units 2 and 3, respectively, and (25X) to (2
5Z) are the call registration signals for the 5th floors of Units 1 to 3, respectively, and (814) to (816) count the number of input signals that are "Hj" and output the corresponding count signal. Counting circuit, (817) is input T, ~T3 is rH
The input corresponding to J, ~I, (For example, if input T1.I2 is rHJ, input I,...
I2) with the highest value is selected, and one of the corresponding outputs P and ~P3 becomes rHJ.Input is equal to the maximum value of ~I3. 2
If there are more than one, they are selected preferentially in the order of I1-+I2-+13. Further, when the inputs T1 to T3 are "L", the outputs P1 to P3 become rLJ.

At the landing where the 3rd floor up call was registered, the 3rd floor car was selected as a priority response, and then in response to the 3rd floor up call, the i1 and 3 cars went up to the 3rd floor. Consider the case where you have arrived. At this time, the uplight (IIUY) on the 3rd floor of car No. 2, which is a priority response car, blinks at a 1-second cycle.
Units 1 and 3 each have an uplight (LUX),
(IIUZ) exists at points M and Li with a period of 3.5 seconds.

Now, when Unit 2 finishes its service on the 3rd floor and starts closing its door to depart for the 4th floor, the 3rd floor up priority response car signal (93UY) of Unit 2 becomes rLJ just before the door closes. , one new priority response vehicle is selected from among the first and third vehicles arriving at the third floor in the upward direction. If 1
When only the 5th floor call is registered in the machine and the 5th floor call registration signal (25X) is rHJ, the counting circuit (
814) emits an output corresponding to "1" (piece). Also, if car calls on the 4th and 5th floors are registered in Unit 3, and the car call registration signals (24Z) and (25Z) are both raJ! + number circuit (816) is "2"
Emit an output corresponding to (units). When Unit 2 is about to close its door, the output (s2ga) of the AND gate (822) in Figure 4 becomes rLJ, and the AND gates (821) and (823) corresponding to Units 1 and 3 The outputs (821a) and (823a) are both rHJ. Therefore, input T1 of the maximum value selection circuit (817)
．． Since I3 becomes rHJ, input ■, (1 piece) and input crab, (2 pieces), the input crab that has the maximum value. is selected,
The output P3 becomes rH. Moreover, the output P1. P2 is rL
It becomes J.

Meanwhile, the priority response car signal (93UY) for Unit 2 going up to the 3rd floor
becomes rLJ, the output of the OR gate (858) becomes rL
Since the output of the NOT gate (8'74) becomes rHJ, the output of the AND gate (829), which is 3
The selection signal (813Z) for the machine becomes rHJ. Then, the memory (80
9) is set, and the 3rd floor upper priority response car signal (93UZ) of No. 3 car becomes "H". Therefore, Unit 3, which has been newly selected as the priority response, is
Z) is changed from blinking at a period of 3.5 seconds to blinking at a period of 1 second.

At the same time, the arrival chime (12BZ) on the third floor rings in double tones to notify you that you have been selected for priority response.

In this embodiment, when there is a car that arrives in response to a car call at a hall where there is no hall call, the first car that arrives is selected as the priority response. In addition, when a priority response car departs, the car with the highest number of car call registrations is selected from among the arriving cars as the new priority response car, and the arrival guidance for this car is displayed separately from other cars. This allows waiting customers to know at a glance which car the car call is registered using the destination button. Therefore, in addition to providing the same functions as the first embodiment, the number of stops of the elevator as a whole is reduced, and the operation efficiency is improved. Note that the following implementation is also possible.

2) In addition to HL and chimes, visual notifications include a two-character graphic tube made of liquid crystal, light-emitting diodes, and cathode ray tubes, etc., to provide arrival guidance, and auditory notifications include voice announcements. A special alarm is used to notify cars whose car calls are automatically registered.

(b) As a means of differentiating the notification form for cars in which car calls are automatically registered and cars in which car calls are not automatically registered, the lighting state of HL [
On, off, or blinking, as well as the blinking cycle and blinking ratio (
In addition to using the ratio of on time and off time when blinking) and the chime sounding state (ringing or non-ringing), you can change the HLO color and brightness, and change the chime volume, number of rings, pitch, melody, etc. or

(If the arrival information is displayed using a single graphic character, etc., it is possible to more clearly distinguish between cars for which car calls are automatically registered and cars that are not registered.) (1) New car calls are automatically registered from among arriving cars. When selecting a car, the car that has already been assigned to a landing on another floor and whether it will be automatically registered by responding to that hall call, and the car that has the highest number of stops or the car that has the longest number of stops, taking into account the car that has already been registered, etc. Priority is given to selecting a car that poses fewer problems in terms of service, such as a car that has no waiting calls or a car that is not full. In addition, select the car for which the car call will be automatically registered, depending on whether the allocation is based on the assumption that a car call in the same direction as the car's operating direction occurs at the above-mentioned landing area (limited to cars arriving at the above-mentioned landing area). do.

) This also applies to elevators that only provide arrival guidance without providing forecast guidance for assigned cars. It is also applied to elevators that allocate the most suitable car for each destination call and notify the assigned car of each destination call using the destination floor display. (4) Simply provide an up button and a down button at the landing, and when these buttons are operated, the arrival of a car with a car call automatically registered can be clearly displayed. It is also applied to elevators that automatically register car calls to predetermined cars.

2) As a means of specifying the destination floor at the landing, a destination floor button using a dial or numeric keypad is used. , in an elevator that is set to be automatically registered to one of multiple cars, when multiple cars arrive at a landing with no hall call registered, select the car for which the car call will be automatically registered. Since the notification is made separately from other cars, passengers can easily distinguish the car whose car name is automatically registered, allowing them to board the car without hesitation, and preventing a drop in elevator operation efficiency. can.
