Abstract:
An elevator group control apparatus performs operation control of a plurality of elevators by detecting a downward traffic flow ratio of traffic flows departing downward from floors higher than a prescribed main floor in the total traffic flow departing from one floor to another. If the downward traffic flow ratio is not less than a prescribed reference value, a standby mode for downward traffic flow is made effective, in which at least one elevator car is caused to be on standby on a floor higher than the main floor and at least one elevator car is caused to be on standby on the main floor.
Abstract:
An elevator group management system capable of appropriately performing car assignment processing without leaving any one behind and enabling a passenger to recognize a car to board without fail. A fellow passenger group assignment section assigns fellow passenger groups to respective passengers based on the contents of hall call registration for each floor received from a hall operation panel, and causes the hall operation panel that has sent the hall call registration to display names of the assigned fellow passenger. A fellow passenger group car assignment section executes, on the fellow passenger groups assigned by the fellow passenger group assignment section, car assignment processing of assigning any of a plurality of cars as an assigned car and, in a case of determining the assigned car, provides car control sections with a passenger guide command containing at least combination information on this assigned car that has been determined and the fellow passenger group.
Abstract:
In a group control system which temporarily assigns a destination call registered from a hall destination call registration device to the car of each elevator and computes a plurality of prescribed kinds of evaluation values for each elevator, as one of the plurality of evaluation values, the priority is calculated whose value is determined according to ease with which the passenger who has registered a destination call from the hall destination call registration device moves in a hall and ease with which a passenger who later registers a destination call from the hall destination call registration device moves in the hall. Thereby, the degree of congestion in a hall is appropriately controlled also in consideration of the movement of the passengers in the hall.
Abstract:
An elevator control device includes a non-service function prohibiting registration of call to each of floors and a non-service level setting part which sets two non-service levels of level 1 and level 2 for each floor, a call registration part for a user to perform a call registration operation for a desired floor, and a call registration control part in which when the call registration part is operated, in the case level 1 or level 2 has been set for the desired floor, prohibits a registration of call to that floor, and in the case neither level 1 nor level 2 has been set for the desired floor, performs the registration of call to that floor. Even if level 1 has been set for the desired floor, in the case a temporary cancel signal designating that floor has been inputted, the call to that floor is registered.
Abstract:
According to the present invention, when a parking floor is set as a remote-hall-operating-panel-installed floor, the parking floor can be canceled. As a result of this, during the movement of a passenger from a remote hall operating panel to an elevator hall, it is possible to prevent a car from being on standby at a remote-hall-operating-panel-installed floor. Therefore, because a car to which a remote hall registration has been assigned can effectively use the moving time of the passenger and hence it is possible to improve the operation efficiency of the whole group supervisory control system. Furthermore, it is possible to reduce useless runs and hence to reduce power consumption.
Abstract:
Provided is an elevator group control apparatus which brings distributed standby control into action when the movement of users is heavy in one direction in an unbalanced manner in time zones which account for large proportions of an elevator use condition of a day, for example, in off-hour zones and time zones in which traffic demand is relatively small, thereby improving the waiting time of users, and does not bring distributed standby control into action when there is no unbalanced condition of the movement of the users, whereby it is possible to perform energy savings by reducing power consumption during runs without greatly worsening the waiting time of the users.In an elevator group control apparatus which performs the operation control of a plurality of elevators, there is detected a downward traffic flow ratio of traffic flows departing downward from floors higher than a prescribed main floor in the total traffic flow departing from one floor to another. If the downward traffic flow ratio is not less than a prescribed reference value, a standby mode for downward traffic flow is made effective. If the above-described standby mode for downward traffic flow has been made effective, at least one elevator car is caused to be on standby on a floor higher than the main floor and at least one elevator car is caused to be on standby on the main floor.

Abstract:
Provided is an elevator system which can perform an optimum assignment suited to the operation condition of elevators and can appropriately notify a user of accurate information. For this purpose, there are provided a call registration device which registers a destination call before boarding and a notification device which provides elevator information. Normally, immediately after registration of a destination call, the notification device provides information on an assigned car. On the other hand, when a prescribed assignment review condition is met, immediately after registration of a destination call, the notification device provides information to the effect that the registration has been accepted, thereafter the assignment of the elevator is reviewed, and the notification device provides information on an assigned car when the elevator responds to the destination call.
Abstract:
In an elevator system 1000, an elevator-hall-call/destination-floor-call registration devices 100A and 100B provided at an elevator hall include, besides a destination floor registration button 101 such as a numeric keypad, etc. formed by buttons having respective numbers of 0 to 9 for registering a destination floor, a disabled person button 102 declaring that a customer is a disabled person. For example, in the elevator-hall-call/destination-floor-call registration device 100A, when the disabled person button 102 is pressed and as well the destination floor call is inputted, a group management control device 300 registers the destination floor call, and as well determines a car to be assigned for the destination floor call, rings a chime and further turns on a hall lantern corresponding to the determined assigned car. Like the above, the group management control device 300 rings the chime and turns on the hall lantern only when the disabled person button 102 is pressed.
Abstract:
In an elevator system, upon registration of a hall destination call from a call registration device, a group control device determines an assigned car caused to respond to the hall destination call. An assigned car notification device indicates information on the determined assigned car correlating the information to a service floor of the assigned car. The group control device determines whether or not a hall destination call registered from the call registration device meets a prescribed review condition, and if affirmative, the group control device does not perform a final determination of an assigned car immediately after registration. Upon final determination of an assigned car for a hall destination call meeting the review condition by the group control device, the assigned car notification device indicates only information on the assigned car and a service floor corresponding to the hall destination call on the indicator for a prescribed period of time.
