Method for controlling the elevators in an elevator bank in a building divided into zones comprising a plurality of floors via a process whereby destination floor calls are issued to the elevators by means of destination floor call input devices in the lobby of departure and the calls are distributed internally among different zones in the building by the elevator group control system, the elevators and the floors to be served being divided dynamically within the aforesaid elevator group control system into aforesaid zones, varying the numbers of elevators and the zone limits (r) according to traffic forecasts and transportation need.

An elevator system is provided with multiple sky lobbies to reduce the space required for elevator shafts and the space required for the entire elevator system, as well as the required elevator speed and motor capacity. Sky lobbies Ls1-Lsx are arranged above building lobby LG at ground level, with a prescribed number of floors between them. Shuttle elevator (1) stops only at building lobby LG and sky lobbies Ls1-Lsx, and passes through the various floors between lobbies by making them an express region. Local elevators service the floors in each bank between adjacent sky lobbies. Local elevators (2a), (2c), (2e), (2g) for the odd-numbered banks are arranged along the same elevator shaft, and local elevators (2b), (2d), (2f) for the even-numbered banks are arranged along another same elevator shaft.

A group-supervising control system for an elevator includes a cage position prediction unit for predicting cage positions after a predetermined time period based on the present positions, a service available time period distribution calculation unit for calculating the time periods until the service is available (predicted arrival times of a cage capable of responding to a hall call earliest) based on the predicted cage positions, and an assignment correction value calculation unit for calculating assignment correction values for correcting assignment estimation values based on the distributions of the time periods until the service is available. Unevenness in the time periods until the service is available with regard to the respective floors is decreased.

The invention concerns a control system for a plurality of groups of lifts (G1-G5), according to which system the passenger can input his destination at any destination call input device (TE) without having to know which group of lifts (G1-G5) serves the desired storey. In this way, in large buildings in which, for structural reasons, the ranges of storeys served by individual groups of lifts (G1-G5) are disposed adjacent one another in a confused manner, the passenger's search for the appropriate lift is facilitated. The multiple groups control system always selects the most favorable lift from all the available lifts and, when the storey ranges served by a plurality of groups of lifts (G4-G5) overlap, the selection is made from all the possible lifts. If the passenger has to change lifts, the connecting lift is shown on a display.

In a vertically movable elevator group management control apparatus for control of a plurality of transversely shiftable cars among plural shafts, control is done by storing route data with respect to each said car, generating target floor data including a target floor, based on car call data obtained in correspondence with each said car and station call data as obtained correspondingly to each floor, estimating the time taken for said car to reach said target floor, based on at least said route data, said target floor data and said car call data, and assigning a certain car to a certain floor call, based on the estimated arrival time.

A group controller for controlling elevator cars in a building having a plurality of floors includes a traffic and traffic rate estimator for providing fuzzy estimates of traffic and traffic rate; a closed loop fuzzy logic controller for providing a control parameter in response to the fuzzy estimates of traffic and traffic rate and in response to an elevator control system output variable; and an elevator dispatcher for controlling the operation of the elevator cars during single source traffic conditions in response to the control parameter.

An improved group management control method for an elevator capable of efficiently performing a group management control of an elevator based upon the building condition by deciding a corresponding car to be allocated in accordance with a predetermined hall call based upon a traffic flow and the fuzzy theory which are differ from the characteristics of each building, which includes the steps of a traffic flow collecting step for collecting information concerning a current traffic flow occurred at each hall call and car; a traffic flow study step for studying information collected at the traffic flow collecting step; a traffic flow anticipating step for anticipating a traffic flow after a predetermined time based upon the information studied at the traffic flow study step; a specific mode judgement step for judging a specific mode corresponding to the traffic flow anticipated at the traffic anticipating step; an allocation control strategy establishment step for establishing control strategy for allocating a proper car based upon a specific mode judged at the specific mode judgement step and the information and role defined by building manager; a comprehensive evaluation function operation step for operating a comprehensive evaluation function for each car when a hall call occurs; an allocation possible car selection step for selecting a predetermined car possible for a hall call based upon the comprehensive evaluation function operated at the comprehensive evaluation function operation step; a control item value operation step for operating an input value per control item for an allocated possible car selected at the allocation possible car selection step; and an allocated car decision step for deciding a car based upon a predetermined estimated rule using an input value per control item operated at the control item value operation step.
摘要:
A remaining response time for an elevator car under consideration for assignment to a newly registered hall call is estimated by using a neural network. The neural network or any other downstream module may be standardized for use in any building by use of an upstream fixed length stop description that summarizes the state of the building at the time of the registration of the new hall call for one or more postulated paths of each and every car under consideration for answering the new hall call.
摘要:
The feature distinguishing part distinguishes feature modes from the traffic volume data detected by the traffic volume detecting part or from the traffic volume data estimated from the detected traffic volume data by the traffic volume estimating part, and the control parameter setting part sets the optimum control parameter according to the distinction results, further the drive controlling part controls the drive of cars on the control parameters. The distinction function constructing part constructs and modifies the distinction function of feature modes by learning prepared plural feature modes or the distinction results of past feature modes, furthermore the control result detecting part detects the control results or the drive results of cars, and corrects the control parameters. The control results or the drive results are exhibited on the user interface, and the control parameters are set and corrected from the outside by referring the results.
