Abstract:
According to an aspect, there is provided an elevator system comprising an elevator control apparatus configured to operate elevator cars (200-216) in two parallel vertical trajectories (224, 226), wherein the elevator cars (200-216) are configured to move in a closed loop up along a first vertical trajectory (224) and down along a second vertical trajectory (226). The first vertical trajectory (224) and the second vertical trajectory (226) are at least partly shared by a first group of elevator cars (200-208) and a second group of elevators cars (210-216), wherein the first group and the second group at least partly are configured to operate at different maximum speeds.
Abstract:
The invention relates to elevator systems, in which a number of elevators operate in the same hoistway. The elevator system comprises at least one shuttle elevator and at least two local elevators, the elevator cars of which are arranged to travel in the same elevator hoistway such that they can serve at least one shared transfer floor of a transfer level. The control system of the elevator system receives destination calls given from a destination call appliance, forms a plurality of route alternatives and allocates a destination call to one or more elevators by selecting the best route alternative. When allocating a destination call, the control system takes into account that the elevator cars of the local elevators that travel in the same elevator hoistway cannot simultaneously be at a shared transfer floor in cases in which the route alternative comprises a part-trip with a local elevator and a change of elevator at a shared transfer floor.
Abstract:
An elevator system comprises at least two independently operable elevator cars in each of a plurality of elevator shafts within a building. The elevator system comprises at least one first elevator shaft having a lower first and a lower second region, where a first elevator car moves within the lower first region of the first elevator shaft and a second elevator car moves within the lower second region. The first and second elevators are moveably controlled independently of each other within the first shaft. The system also includes at least one second elevator shaft having an upper first and an upper second region, where a third elevator car moves within the upper first region of the second elevator shaft and a fourth elevator car moving within the upper second region. The third and fourth elevator cars also are moveably controlled independently of each other.
Abstract:
An elevator system (10) includes multiple elevator cars (14, 18) that each service a group of floors. The groups of floors overlap on at least one transfer floor (L5). Each transfer floor includes a transfer opening (22) such that a load is transferable between the elevator cars via the transfer opening (22).
Abstract:
An elevator control system employs a microprocessor-based group controller (17) which communicates with the cars (3, 4) of the elevator system to determine the condition of the cars, and responds to hall calls registered at a plurality of landings in the building serviced by the cars under control of the group controller, on a cyclic basis which recurs several times a second, to assign every unanswered hall call to a car deemed best suited for response to that call, in each cycle, based upon the information provided by the car to the group controller within that cycle of operation. In any cycle in which a call is assigned to a car other than a car to which the call had previously been assigned, the assignment of the call to the previous car is nullified. At the end of each cycle, any car which indicates that its committable position coincides with the floor of a hall call which has been assigned to it will receive a stop command. In the assignment of calls to cars, preference is given to any car which previously had a call, although the preference is relative and not absolute. Exemplary elevator apparatus, signal processing apparatus, and logic flow diagrams are disclosed to illustrate the specific manner of assigning calls to cars on a continuously updated basis, and to illustrate the environment in which the invention may be practiced.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a method and a system for dividing destination calls in an elevator system, which comprises at least two elevator groups, which elevator groups have one or more shared floors and also destination call appliances on at least the aforementioned shared floors for receiving destination calls given by passengers. The destination call appliances are connected to the group controls of the elevator groups, and the destination calls given by passengers are divided between the elevator groups on the basis of the defined division criteria.

Abstract:
Method for organizing the operation of elevator groups in a building having one or more sky lobbies (H) serving as an entrance floor for local elevator groups disposed above and below them and serving given floors, and as a terminal floor for at least one shuttle elevator group (G) transporting passengers from the entrance floor (I) of the building to a sky lobby (H), in which method congestion of traffic at the sky lobby (H) is prevented by using a group control system.
Abstract:
An elevator control system employs a microprocessor-based group controller (17) which communicates with the cars (3, 4) of the elevator system to determine conditions of the cars and responds to hall calls registered at a plurality of landings in the building serviced by the cars under control of the group controller, to provide assignments of calls to cars based on the summation for each car, with respect to each call, a weighted summation of a plurality of system response factors indicative of conditions of the car irrespective of the call to be assigned, and indicative of conditions of the car relative to the call to be assigned, including factors relating to preferring cars which are running, which require motion to provide service already assigned to the car, which do not have lobby calls, which are not positioned at the lobby, which are not full, even though the car may have a car call at the floor of the all call under consideration, which do not have excessive car calls in them, and so forth. Exemplary apparatus and logic flow diagrams are disclosed to illustrate the specific manner of assigning calls to cars in accordance with the invention, and to illustrate the environment in which the invention may be practiced.
