Abstract: Each car in a group of elevator cars in a building is determined to be available or not depending on whether it is assigned in the group, whether it is the only delayed car, whether it is fully loaded without intervening car calls which comprise all the car calls, whether it has intervening hall calls, and whether other cars in the group are fully loaded with or without some chance of offloading passengers before reaching a call to be assigned. Among available cars, assignment is made based on each car's membership in fuzzy sets relating to low, medium or high delay in that car responding to the call and each car's membership in fuzzy sets indicative of the extent to which assignment of that car will have no adverse effect or a very high adverse effect on the response to already-assigned hall calls. The call is assigned to the car with the highest summation of weighted memberships in the fuzzy sets.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to assigning an elevator car in response to a hall call, based on a series of bonuses and penalties and remaining response time, defined herein as an estimation of the amount of time required for an elevator car to reach the floor at which the hall call is registered, given the car calls and hall calls to which the elevator car is committed. Upon the registration of a hall call, a relative system response (RSR) value for each elevator car is determined based on a series of bonuses and penalties. Additionally, a remaining response time (RRT) value for each car is determined. The RRT value of the elevator car having the most favorable RSR value is compared with the RRT value of the elevator car having the lowest RRT value. Based on this comparison, one of the two elevator cars will be assigned to service the hall call. The present invention preferably assigns the hall call to the elevator car which has the lowest RSR value, except where there exists another car which could reach the floor registering the hall call at least a predetermined amount of time before the car having the most favorable RSR value.

Abstract: A group management method and apparatus for elevators is disclosed. The apparatus includes a car-position predicting device for predicting a car position and a car direction which will have been taken by each car when a predetermined time has elapsed, a predicted-empty-car detecting device for predicting from the predicted car position and direction an empty car which will be available when the predetermined time has elapsed, and an assignment restricting device for restricting the assignment of the predicted empty car to a floor call. In the group management method, a waiting time derived from a registered floor call which is assigned to each car is evaluated, and a car to be assigned to the floor call is selected on the basis of the result of the evaluation.

Abstract: A group control for an elevator system assigns immediately destination calls which were entered at a floor lying behind the car in the direction of travel of the car and for a floor which lies ahead of the car. The group control includes a call memory having a first register for storing the calls of like direction of travel entered ahead of the car, a second register for storing the calls of opposite direction of travel and a third register for storing the calls of like direction of travel entered behind the car. A control circuit is activated each time a call is entered such that a call of the same direction of travel is written, according to its position with respect to the car, into the first or third register. The allocated calls of the third register are transferred into the second register on the first change in direction of travel of the car and into the first register on the second change in direction of travel so that they can be detected by a selector addressing the call memory.

Abstract: In a group of elevators with double cars, the assignment of such double cars to floor calls takes place at scanner positions .alpha. in two procedural steps, according to two parameters: primarily by assignment of the individual cars of all double cars by logical decision, according to a criteria chain (KK), and subsidiarily by assignment of the double cars according to the minimal loss time of all involved passengers. The individual elevators each have a microcomputer system with a calculating device and are connected with each other by way of a comparator circuit to form a group control. The optimal individual cars are assigned for each elevator by floor in the associated individual car/call assignment memories. The optimal double car is selected by comparison of the loss times of all elevators calculated as the total operating costs K.sub.g (.alpha.) and is assigned to the respective floor in the associated double car/call assignment memory. For the total servicing costs K.sub.g (.alpha.), a special cost calculating algorithm is provided. With the separate assignment of individual cars and double cars, this group control renders possible a complete utilization of the double car functions as well as a good matching to different operating and traffic conditions. At the same time, the minimal waiting time of the passengers is optimized.
