    Abstract: This device allows an implicit or explicit input of destination calls on elevator installations. After a corresponding inquiry by a detector, an information transmitter transmits data. This data can contain direct information about the desired destination floor and/or serve as identification of the elevator user and thereby enable access to information about the destination floor which is stored in a memory. The memory is contained in a processing unit of an elevator control. Communication between the detector and the information transmitter takes place, for example, without contact. Using the received data the destination floor is evaluated in the processing unit and communicated to the elevator control. The assignment is communicated to the passenger on a display. The process of inputting a call takes place automatically and independent of the orientation of the information transmitter. To change the floor proposed by the processing unit an input device is provided which can also be used to choose the type of preselection of the destination floor.

    Abstract: An elevator car suitable for use by physically handicapped passengers can be selected from a group of elevator cars under the control of a group control wherein call registering and indicating devices positioned at the floors served by the cars include an additional key for activating a switching circuit. The switching circuit is connected to a car load memory and a memory for storing the alighting calls for target floors where passengers are to leave the cars. A first condition is satisfied when there is no alighting call for a car, no exiting passenger to interfere with an entering wheelchair, and a second condition is satisfied when the load, number of passengers, in a car is smaller than a certain load limit value indicating sufficient space for the wheelchair. The switching circuit is also connected to a comparator which compares the travelling time required for a car to travel from its current position to the call entry floor with the traverse time needed by a physically handicapped person to traverse the path between the actuated call registering and indicating device and the shaft door of the elevator concerned. A third condition for the selection of a car is fulfilled when the travelling time is greater than the traverse time. When all three conditions are fulfilled for a car, that car is enabled to participate in the call allocation procedure to determine which car in the group will serve the call.

    Abstract: A signal transmission apparatus for an elevator in a multi-story building comprises a small number of signal lines which carry, in a time-shared fashion, hall call signal and hall call registration information for all floors. On each floor, one or more signal terminal means comprises one or more push buttons for entering hall calls and one or more indicator lamps for indicating that a hall call has been registered. A reference signal originates in a control unit and propagates through a ring counter with stages corresponding to each signal terminal means and each separate direction of travel, ascending or descending, supported therein. A signal indicating that a button on a given signal terminal means has been pushed is transmitted over a hall call signal line in synchronization with the reference signal to the control unit. A hall call reference signal generated by the control unit is transmitted over a register line and is received by a signal terminal means to which it was transmitted in synchronization with the reference signal. Error detection and indication circuitry in each signal terminal means detects error conditions which could casue erroneous hall call signal information to be transmitted over the hall call signal line and provides a visual display to permit quick and easy isolation of which of the several data terminal means in the signal transmission system is causing the erroneous hall call signals.
