Embodiment Construction

[0035] One or more embodiments described herein relate to methods and / or systems for transportation devices, such as cordless elevators with optional sensors and control devices, for dispatching elevators and users to help control Congestion, efficiency and user experience. The system includes a controller connected to both the transportation device and the destination device used by the user. This method and system can provide a reduction in the size of the compartment to be beneficial to the reduction of the building core space. The system and method can also provide an improved passenger experience and reduce boarding time.

[0036] Now go to figure 1 , Depicts an exemplary multi-car, cordless elevator system 100 that can be used in embodiments. The elevator system 100 includes an elevator shaft 111 having a plurality of passages 113, 115, and 117. although figure 1 Three passages 113, 115, 117 are shown in, but it should be understood that various embodiments and configura...

Abstract

A system and method for lobby crowd control dispatching in a multi-car ropeless lift (MCRL) system is provided. The method includes receiving, at a controller, a call request for a transport device in the lobby from a user using a destination device, generating, using a processor of the controller, a call assignment based on a crowd parameter, controlling, using the processor of the controller, the transport device based on the crowd parameter, and transmitting, from the controller, the call assignment to the user using the destination device. The system includes a transport device that arrives and departs from the lobby, a destination device that receives a call request from a user for the transport device in the lobby, and a controller that is communicatively connected to the transport device and the destination device.

Description

Background technique [0001] The subject matter disclosed herein relates generally to the elevator field, and more specifically, to crowd control of the halls of transportation devices such as multi-car, cordless elevator systems. [0002] Cordless elevator systems (also known as self-propelled elevator systems) can be used in certain applications (for example, high-rise buildings), where the quality of the ropes of the rope system is forbidden and it is expected that multiple elevator cars in a single shaft, elevator Travel in shafts or passages. There is a cordless elevator system where the first passage is designated for the elevator car to travel upward and the second passage is designated for the elevator car to travel downward. A transfer station at each end of the passage is used to move the car horizontally between the first passage and the second passage. In addition, the cordless elevator system can provide a reduction in core space, which is directly related to the red...
