Elevator system suitable for use by robots and control method thereof

Abstract

The present invention proposes an elevator system suitable for use by robots and its control method, which specifically includes: an elevator management unit, an elevator control unit, an elevator task distribution unit, and an elevator task execution unit. The request and the failure information transmitted by the elevator management unit use the elevator task optimization allocation algorithm to arrange an available elevator response for the robot or user’s elevator request; the elevator task allocation unit uses the finite state optimization control algorithm to control the operation of the available elevator, Meet the passenger needs of the robot or the user, and transmit the elevator operation signal to the elevator task execution unit; the elevator task execution unit receives the elevator operation signal and executes the corresponding elevator operation task. The invention has the advantages of simple model and high efficiency, and can efficiently realize the fully automatic intelligent control of the elevator jointly used by the robot and the user even in a complex environment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of mobile robots, and in particular relates to an elevator system suitable for use by robots and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the development of social economy and the advancement of science and technology, the intelligence of mobile robots is particularly critical. In complex environments, the research on fully automatic intelligent control of elevators that can be efficiently realized by robots and users has become a hot spot in the industry. [0003] At present, most mobile robots cannot interact with elevators, and robots cannot take elevators up and down to serve users on the target floor. As a result, each floor can only be equipped with one robot to serve users on this floor, and the cost is relatively high. At the same time, a small number of robots that can interact with elevators do not use intelligent optimization algorithms to scientifically plan the elevator task in order t...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, most mobile robots cannot interact with the elevator, and the robot cannot take the elevator up and down to serve the users on the target floor. As a result, each floor can only be equipped with one robot to serve the users on this floor, and the cost is relatively high.

At the same time, a small number of robots that can interact with elevators do not use intelligent optimization algorithms to scientifically plan the elevator ride tasks in the process of interacting with elevators, so as to realize the efficient process of robots freely riding elevators
