[0017] Figure 1 is a block diagram of an elevator operation control system according to an embodiment of the present invention;

[0018] Figure 2 4 is a flow chart of a control method of an elevator operation control system according to an embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The following describes embodiments of the present invention in detail, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0020] The elevator operation control system according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an elevator operation control system according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the elevator operation control system includes: a touch screen 10, a control panel 20 and a detection panel 30.

[0022] The touch screen 10 is connected to the control board 20 and the detection board 30 respectively, and the control board 20 and the detection board 30 are connected to the original elevator control board of the elevator respectively.

[0023] The touch screen 10 is used to generate a control signal based on a user's control operation and send the control signal to the control board 10 .

[0024] That is, the touch screen 10 is set in the elevator, and the user can input operation instructions by operating the touch screen 10, and the touch screen 10 generates a control signal according to the user's input operation and sends the generated control signal to the control board 10.

[0025] There are many ways to generate a control signal according to the user's operation; for example, an input interface is displayed on the touch screen 10 to obtain the target floor by obtaining digital information input by the user.

[0026] In some embodiments, a virtual button corresponding to each floor is displayed on the touch screen 10, wherein a control signal is generated based on the user's control operation, including: obtaining the user's click operation on the virtual button, determining the target floor based on the click operation, and generating a control signal according to the target floor.

[0027] The control panel 20 is used to send corresponding switch signals to the elevator control panel according to the control signal.

[0028] In some embodiments, corresponding switch terminals are set on the control panel 20 for each floor, wherein the corresponding switch signal is sent to the elevator control panel according to the control signal, including: the control panel 20 controls the corresponding switch terminal according to the control signal to send the corresponding switch signal to the elevator control panel.

[0029] In this way, the control panel 20 is connected to the original elevator control panel of the elevator instead of the elevator system, which does not affect the operation logic and operation protocol of the original elevator. At the same time, the elevator can be controlled through the touch screen 10.

[0030] The detection board 30 is used to obtain the light control signal sent by the elevator control board and send the light control signal to the touch screen 10.

[0031] The touch screen 10 is further configured to control the brightness of a corresponding area on the screen according to the light control signal.

[0032] As an example, first, when the elevator control panel receives an operation control signal with a target floor, it will send a light-on signal to control the LED light corresponding to the target floor to turn on. At this time, the light control signal sent by the elevator control panel is received by the detection board 30, so that when the touch screen 10 receives the light-on signal, it can synchronously control the area corresponding to the target floor on the screen to light up. Then, after the elevator arrives at the target floor and the elevator door opens, the elevator control panel will send a light-off signal to control the LED light corresponding to the target floor to turn off. The light-off signal sent by the elevator control panel is received by the detection board 30, so that when the touch screen 10 receives the light-off signal, it can synchronously control the area corresponding to the target floor on the screen to turn off.

[0033] In some embodiments, the touch screen 10 includes a voice broadcast module, and the touch screen 10 is further configured to control the voice broadcast module to perform corresponding voice broadcast when the light control signal is a light-off signal.

[0034] As an example, assuming that the target floor is 10F, when the touch screen 10 receives the floor light off signal, it controls the voice broadcast module to broadcast the corresponding voice broadcast (for example, "10th floor has been reached, please be careful when opening the door", etc.).

[0035] In some embodiments, the system also includes an information acquisition module and identifiable tags set on corresponding floors. The information acquisition module is set on the elevator car, and the information acquisition module is connected to the touch screen. The information acquisition module is used to read the identifiable tag information and send the identifiable tag information to the touch screen so that the touch screen can determine the current floor information based on the identifiable tag information, and display the current floor information in real time.

[0036] In other words, an information acquisition module is installed in the elevator car, and corresponding identifiable tags are installed in the elevator shaft for each floor. Thus, during the operation of the elevator, the information acquisition module can identify the identifiable tags in the elevator shaft in real time to obtain identifiable tag information. The touch screen 10 can then determine the current floor based on the obtained identifiable tag information.

[0037] It should be noted that there are many ways to set the information acquisition module. For example, the information acquisition module can be set as a camera, and the identifiable tag can be set as a QR code, so as to obtain the identifiable tag information by acquiring image information through the camera.

[0038] As an example, the information acquisition module is set as a card reader, and the identifiable tag is the corresponding card reader identification. During the operation of the elevator, the card reader obtains the card reader identification information in real time and sends the floor information corresponding to the read card reader identification information to the touch screen 10, so that the touch screen 10 displays the current floor information.

[0039] It should be noted that the existing display of current floor information is relative and has a certain delay. However, the current floor information collected by the information collection module is absolute and has no delay. This method greatly improves the accuracy of the current floor display.

[0040] In summary, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the elevator operation control system is provided with a touch screen, a control panel and a detection panel, wherein the touch screen is respectively connected to the control panel and the detection panel, and the control panel and the detection panel are respectively connected to the original elevator control panel of the elevator; the touch screen is used to generate a control signal based on the user's control operation, and send the control signal to the control panel; the control panel is used to send a corresponding switch signal to the elevator control panel according to the control signal; the detection panel is used to obtain a light control signal sent by the elevator control panel, and send the light control signal to the touch screen; the touch screen is also used to control the brightness of the corresponding area in the screen according to the light control signal; thereby effectively improving the convenience of installing the touch screen, improving the installation efficiency, and making the installation of the touch screen easy to promote.
