Embodiment Construction

[0020] To promote an understanding of the principles of the disclosure, reference will now be made to the embodiments illustrated in the drawings, and specific language will be used to describe the same. It will be understood, however, that no limitation of the scope of the present disclosure is thereby intended.

[0021] figure 1 A system for initiating elevator service is shown schematically, indicated generally at 10 . The system 10 includes an elevator system 12 and a call input device 14 in communication with the elevator system 12 . In one embodiment, the call input device 14 comprises a mobile device. It will be appreciated that the call input device 14 may be any mobile device particularly suitable for this purpose, such as a mobile phone, tablet device or any device that a person is able to take out of the house, just to name a few non-limiting examples. It will be appreciated that a communication module (not shown) is located within each of the elevator system 12 ...

Abstract

In one aspect, a method for initiating elevator service by entering an elevator call on a call input device (14) having a plurality of graphical objects (22) displayed on a graphical user interface (20) is provided. The method includes the steps of selecting a first landing graphical object (24) from the plurality of graphical objects, and selecting a second landing graphical object (24) from theplurality of graphical objects. The method also includes selecting a third landing graphical object (24) from the plurality of graphical objects. The method also includes creating an anticipated tripgraphical object (26), the anticipated trip graphical object indicating a trip from the third landing to the first landing. The method also includes selecting the anticipated trip graphical object (26) to initiate a hall call and floor call from the third landing to the first landing.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application is an International Patent Application that claims priority to US Patent Application Serial No. 62 / 251,754, filed November 6, 2015, which is incorporated herein in its entirety. technical field [0003] The present disclosure relates generally to elevator systems, and more particularly, to systems and methods for initiating elevator service by entering an elevator call. Background technique [0004] Entering an elevator call from a location remote from the elevator provides the user with the convenience of allowing the elevator car to potentially be ready by the time the user reaches the elevator doors. Typically, remotely originating an elevator call requires the user to use a mobile device to scroll through and / or enter the appropriate origin and destination landings and then possibly confirm that the selections made are correct, an inconvenient and cumbersome process. Therefore, a more intuitive, m...
