Abstract: An elevator group control apparatus includes a parameter calculating unit for determining a weighting factor for an item to be evaluated, which is calculated from a running distance estimated by an estimation arithmetic operation unit by taking into consideration a relation between a running distance of an elevator and a passenger average waiting time, and an evaluation arithmetic operation unit for calculating a total evaluated value from an item to be evaluated of a passenger waiting time, an item to be evaluated of the running distance, and the weighting factor determined by the parameter calculating unit. The elevator group control apparatus selects an elevator whose total evaluated value is the best from among the plurality of elevators, and assigns a hall call to the selected elevator.

Abstract: An elevator group control system includes a reference route generating portion, which for each elevator, generates a reference route which the elevator should follow with respect to the time axis and position axis; and an assignment portion which selects an elevator for assignment to a generated hall call so as to make the actual trajectory of each elevator closer to its reference route. Reference routes which guide the cage's trajectory into temporally equal interval condition are generated, and car assignment is executed to allow the cages to settle in temporally equal interval condition over a long period of time.

Abstract: A method and a display for elevator allocation evaluating are provided. When an elevator allocated to a hall call is selected by employing two different view points such as a real and a future call evaluation index, an elevator allocation reason and a balance between the two view points can be easily grasped. An elevator allocated to a hall call is evaluated on orthogonal coordinates in which the real call evaluation index and the future call evaluation index are defined as an X and a Y coordinate axis. Evaluation indexes of first to fourth elevator cars are evaluated by employing contour lines of a synthetic evaluation function, which is represented as the real and the future call evaluation index. A weight for allocating is displayed visually.

Abstract: An elevator group control method for allocating landing calls and car calls to elevators so that the objectives set are met. In the method, a car-specific energy consumption file is generated to describe the energy consumption occurring during each trip of the elevator from each floor to each one of the other floors with different loads, and the calls are so allocated that the energy consumption resulting from serving all the active calls is minimized.

Abstract: A method controls the distribution of free cars in an elevator system. First, the number of free cars in the elevator system are counted whenever this number changes. At the same time, the arrival/destination rates of passengers at each of the floor is determined. The rates are used to identify up-peak and down-peak traffic patterns. The floors of the building are then assigned to zones. The number of floors in each zone is determined according to the arrival rates, and the free cars are then parked in the zones so that the expected waiting time of the next arriving passenger is minimized.

Abstract: An elevator system controller for efficient group supervisory control while avoiding collisions between two elevator cars in service in a single elevator shaft. The elevator system controller includes a risk calculating unit for calculating a risk of a collision between elevator cars in the same shaft when the elevator cars are responding to a new call for service, a car assigning unit for assignment of an elevator car to respond to the new call based on the risk of collision, and an operation control unit for controlling operation of the elevator cars based on the assignment by the car assigning unit. The risk of collision is calculated for each car, and the risk is recalculated based on a possibility of a withdrawal of one of the elevator cars to a position in the shaft where no collision can occur, based on a predicted arrival time of a car at the floor requiring service. Cars that have high risks of collision when the remaining cars in the same shaft cannot be withdrawn in time to a safe spot are removed as candidates for assignment to respond to the new call. An evaluation is carried out using several evaluation indexes, in addition to the risk of collision, to decide which car is to be assigned to respond to the new call. If a determination of a traffic condition indicates low usage of the elevator cars, one car in each shaft is forwarded to a rest position and paused.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a group control elevator system which has been adjusted to operate in response to a state of utilizing elevator cars. In a group control elevator system which carries out a control of allocating elevator cars to elevator car calls for serving many floors by using an evaluation function having a plurality of variable parameters, targets for elevator control performance are inputted, a traffic flow to which elevator car demand belongs is judged, variable parameters to be adjusted which have been set in advance for each combination of said targets and traffic flows are stored, stored variable parameters are adjusted, adjustment sequence of variable parameters to be adjusted is stored, and a plurality of variable parameters are sequentially adjusted according to the stored sequence. By the above arrangement, only desired parameters to be adjusted are selected and adjusted out of a plurality of variable parameters for desired targets and traffic flows. Accordingly, an increase in time required for adjustment can be restricted even if there has been an increase in the number of variable parameters to be adjusted.

Abstract: A method for controlling the dispatching of elevator cars, and apparatus for accomplishing the method. The method includes the steps of (a) receiving a hall call from a floor landing; (b) determining a current passenger load of an elevator car; (c) determining if a crowd signal is generated for the floor landing; and, if it is determined that a crowd signal is generated for the floor landing, (d) determining, from the current passenger load, if the elevator car is EMPTY. If it is determined that the elevator car is EMPTY, the method further includes the steps of (e) assigning an Empty Car Bonus to the elevator car; and (f) employing the Empty Car Bonus value in determining a Relative System Response for the elevator car. The Relative System Response is a function of a plurality of bonuses and penalties. The use of the invention increases the efficiency of the elevator system and serves to decrease the waiting time for persons waiting behind the hall call by increasing the probability of an empty car being assigned to a hall call having a crowd waiting behind the hall call.
