Abstract

To provide a technology for rescuing an autonomous moving body that has experienced an operational abnormality inside an elevator car while ensuring security. [Solution] An elevator control device detects the operating state of an autonomous mobile body inside an elevator car, and performs door-close standby processing if an abnormality is detected in the detected operating state. In the door-close standby processing, the elevator car is moved to a waiting floor and waits at the waiting floor with the car doors closed. The elevator control device also notifies a designated terminal of the person to be rescued of a set encryption key. Then, the elevator control device accepts input of an encryption key by the person to be rescued, compares the accepted input encryption key with the set encryption key to determine whether they match, and cancels the door-close standby processing if it is determined that the two match.

[0012] Hereinafter, an embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings. In addition, elements common to the various drawings are given the same reference numerals, and duplicated explanations will be omitted.

[0013] 1. Embodiment 1 1-1. Overview of the elevator system according to the first embodiment Fig. 1 is a block diagram for explaining an overview of an elevator system according to a first embodiment. The elevator system 100 of this embodiment is a system that rescues an autonomous moving object while ensuring security when an operational abnormality occurs in the autonomous moving object riding in an elevator car. Note that the "operation abnormality" here refers to an abnormality that requires rescue activities by a person to be rescued, such as an operational abnormality that makes the autonomous moving object unable to travel autonomously.

[0014] The elevator system 100 of the first embodiment includes an autonomous moving body 2, an elevator 4, a designated terminal 6, and an elevator control device 10.

[0015] The elevator 4 is installed in a building, such as a building having multiple floors. A hoistway for the elevator 4 is provided in the building. The hoistway is a long space in the vertical direction that spans multiple floors. On each floor, a landing adjacent to the hoistway is provided. A landing button 40 for calling the elevator 4 is provided on the wall of each landing.

[0016] The elevator 4 includes, as main components not shown, a hoist, a main rope, a car, and a counterweight. The main rope is wound around a sheave of the hoist. The main rope supports the load of the car on one side of the sheave of the hoist. The main rope supports the load of the counterweight on the other side of the sheave of the hoist. The car is a device that transports users of the elevator 4 or autonomous moving bodies between multiple floors by traveling up and down the hoistway. The car travels up and down the hoistway in conjunction with the movement of the main rope due to the rotation of the sheave of the hoist.

[0017] The autonomous mobile body 2 is a robot capable of autonomous travel using the elevator 4 while grasping its own position. The autonomous mobile body 2 is also referred to as "robot 2" hereinafter. The robot 2 autonomously calls the elevator 4 in cooperation with the elevator 4, and can ride in the car corresponding to the call. The robot 2 operates under the control of a mobile body control device (not shown). There is no limitation on the attribute and operation control of the robot 2. For example, the attribute of the robot 2 can be exemplified as a transport robot that transports luggage, a cleaning robot that cleans floors, a security robot that guards inside a building, and the like. The robot 2 communicates with the mobile body control device via a communication network 8, for example, wirelessly. Alternatively, the mobile body control device is mounted on the robot 2.

[0018] The elevator control device 10 is a device that performs various controls related to rescuing the robot 2 when an operational abnormality occurs in the robot 2 riding in the car of the elevator 4. The elevator control device 10 communicates with the robot 2 and the elevator 4 via a communication network 8 such as the Internet. The elevator control device 10 also communicates with a designated terminal 6 via the communication network 8.

[0019] The elevator control device 10 is a microcomputer including at least one processor 50 and at least one memory 60. The elevator control device 10 is also called an information processing device.

[0020] The memory 60 stores a rescue program 62 and various data 64 for operating the rescue program 62. The processor 50 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit). The processor 50 reads and executes the rescue program 62 to realize various functions of the elevator control device 10. The realized functions will be described in detail later. The rescue program 62 may be recorded on a computer-readable recording medium, or may be stored in a server capable of communicating with the elevator control device 10, such as a cloud server.

[0021] The designated terminal 6 is a terminal designated by the elevator control device 10 among terminal devices managed by an administrator related to the robot 2. The designated terminal 6 is a portable terminal device equipped with a wireless communication function, such as a smartphone or a tablet. The designated terminal 6 is connected to a communication network 8, such as the Internet. In this example, the designated terminal 6 includes an output device (not shown) that outputs information to the administrator. Examples of the output device include a display device, a speaker, etc.

[0022] Consider a case where an abnormality in the operation of the robot 2 occurs in the cage of the elevator 4 to which such an elevator system 100 is applied. The elevator control device 10 acquires operation status information from the robot 2. This process is hereinafter referred to as "operation status information acquisition process". The operation status information here is information for determining whether the operation status of the robot 2 is normal or abnormal, and includes, for example, the running speed and running position of the robot 2. Alternatively, if the robot 2 has a function for determining the operation status, the operation status information may include the presence or absence of an abnormality in the operation determined by the robot 2. The elevator control device 10 determines the presence or absence of an abnormality in the operation of the robot 2 based on the operation status information. This process is hereinafter referred to as "operation abnormality determination process".

[0023] If it is determined in the operation abnormality determination process that the robot 2 has an operation abnormality, the elevator control device 10 executes a process of closing the door of the car in which the robot 2 is riding and waiting at a waiting floor. This process is hereinafter referred to as "door closed waiting process." The waiting floor here is a floor suitable for the person to be rescued by the robot 2 to carry out rescue activities. For example, the waiting floor is a predetermined management floor, such as a floor where the building manager of the building as the person to be rescued is stationed. Alternatively, if the person to be rescued is a staff member of the manufacturer of the robot 2, the waiting floor is a floor where the staff member can enter.

[0024] Furthermore, the elevator control device 10 acquires mobile object information including various information about the robot 2 from the robot 2. This process is hereinafter referred to as "information acquisition process." The acquired mobile object information includes the classification of the robot, such as a transport robot, a cleaning robot, or a security robot. Furthermore, if the robot 2 is a transport robot, the mobile object information includes information on whether or not the robot 2 is transporting luggage and the destination of the luggage.

[0025] Furthermore, the elevator control device 10 generates a set encryption key for canceling the door-closed standby process and performing a door-opening operation. This process is hereinafter referred to as an "encryption key generation process." In the encryption key generation process, the elevator control device 10 generates a set encryption key using a character string pattern that defines the order in which the buttons included in the hall button 40 are pressed.

[0026] The elevator control device 10 identifies a person to be rescued by the robot 2 based on the mobile object information, and designates the terminal device of the identified person to be rescued as the designated terminal 6. This process is hereinafter referred to as "terminal designation process". Examples of the person to be rescued identified here include the building manager of the building, the manufacturer staff of the robot 2, and the recipient of the delivery destination when the attribute of the robot 2 is a delivery robot. The elevator control device 10 notifies the designated terminal 6 of the generated set encryption key and waiting floor via the communication network 8. This process is hereinafter referred to as "notification process".

[0027] The person to be rescued who has received the notification of the set encryption key and the waiting floor from the designated terminal 6 operates the hall button 40, which functions as an input device, at the hall of the waiting floor to input the encryption key. The elevator control device 10 accepts the encryption key input by the person to be rescued as an input encryption key. This process is called "encryption key reception process."

[0028] The elevator control device 10 compares the input encryption key received in the encryption key reception process with the set encryption key generated in the encryption key generation process to determine whether or not the two match. This process is hereinafter referred to as the "comparison process." If it is determined in the comparison process that the input encryption key matches the set encryption key, the elevator control device 10 cancels the door-closed standby process and opens the car doors. This process is hereinafter referred to as the "release process."

[0029] According to the series of processes of the elevator system 100 described above, when an operational abnormality occurs in the robot 2 in the car, the door-closed standby process is performed, so that the security of the robot 2 can be reliably ensured until the rescue recipient performs rescue activities at the waiting floor. Also, when the rescue recipient, who has been notified of the set encryption key, inputs the encryption key from the hall button 40, the door-closed standby process is released, so that it is possible to prevent a third party, who has not been notified of the set encryption key, from releasing the door-closed standby process.

[0030] 1-2. Functional configuration of the elevator control device according to the first embodiment Next, a more detailed description will be given of the functional configuration of the elevator control device 10 included in the elevator system 100. Fig. 2 is a block diagram showing the functions of the elevator control device according to embodiment 1. The elevator control device 10 includes a detection unit 12, an information acquisition unit 18, a control unit 20, an encryption key acquisition unit 32, and an encryption key comparison unit 34 as functions realized by the processor 50 reading and executing the rescue program 62.

[0031] The detection unit 12 is a functional block for detecting an abnormality in the operation of the robot in the cage. Specifically, the detection unit 12 is configured to include a status acquisition unit 14 and an abnormality judgment unit 16. The status acquisition unit 14 is a functional block for executing an operation status information acquisition process. The operation information acquired in the operation status information acquisition process is sent to the abnormality judgment unit 16. The abnormality judgment unit 16 is a functional block for executing an operation abnormality judgment process. The judgment result in the operation abnormality judgment process is sent to the control unit 20.

[0032] The information acquisition unit 18 is a functional block for executing information acquisition processing. The acquired mobile object information is sent to the control unit 20.

[0033] The control unit 20 is a functional block for executing the door closing standby process and various processes associated therewith. Specifically, the control unit 20 includes an encryption key generation unit 22, an information notification unit 24, a door opening / closing control unit 26, and a vehicle dispatch control unit 28.

[0034] The encryption key generating unit 22 is a functional block for executing an encryption key generating process when a determination result of "there is an operation abnormality" in the operation abnormality determination process is received from the detection unit 12. In the encryption key generating process, the encryption key generating unit 22 generates a set encryption key to be notified to the rescue target. For example, when the hall button 40 includes an "up" button and a "down" button, the encryption key generating unit 22 sets a random character string pattern combining "up" and "down", such as "up, down, down, up, down, up", in the set encryption key. Alternatively, when the hall button 40 includes destination floor input buttons from the 1st floor to the 10th floor, for example, the encryption key generating unit 22 sets a random character string pattern combining numbers of destination floors, such as "1, 10, 2, 4, 7", in the set encryption key. In addition, if the hall button 40 includes other buttons such as a "pet driving button," a "wheelchair driving button," and a "VIP driving button," the encryption key generating unit 22 may set a character string pattern including these buttons in the set encryption key. The generated set encryption key is sent to the information notifying unit 24.

[0035] The information notification unit 24 is a functional block for executing a terminal designation process and a notification process upon receiving a determination result that "there is an abnormality in the operation" of the robot 2 in the abnormality in operation determination process.

[0036] The door opening / closing control unit 26 is a functional block for controlling the door opening / closing operation of the car of the elevator 4. The vehicle allocation control unit 28 is a functional block for controlling the movement operation of the elevator 4 between floors. The door opening / closing control unit 26 and the vehicle allocation control unit 28 execute a door close standby process in response to the determination result of "there is an operation abnormality" of the robot 2 in the operation abnormality determination process. Specifically, in the door close standby process, the door opening / closing control unit 26 executes a process of closing and maintaining the door of the car of the elevator 4. Also, in the door close standby process, the vehicle allocation control unit 28 executes a process of moving the car to a standby floor and standby. Also, during the door close standby process, if it is determined in the comparison process that the input encryption key matches the set encryption key, the door opening / closing control unit 26 executes a release process.

[0037] The encryption key acquisition unit 32 is a functional block for executing an encryption key reception process for receiving an input encryption key input from the hall button 40. The encryption key matching unit 34 is a functional block for executing a matching process. The matching result from the matching process is sent to the door opening / closing control unit 26 of the control unit 20.

[0038] 1-3. Specific processing executed by the elevator control device according to the first embodiment Specific processing executed in the elevator control device 10 will be described below with reference to a flowchart. Fig. 3 is a flowchart of processing executed in the elevator control device according to the first embodiment. The routine shown in Fig. 3 is executed by the processor 50 of the elevator control device 10 executing a rescue program 62 stored in the memory 60. This routine also represents a part of a rescue method for rescuing the robot 2 that has experienced an operational abnormality in the car of the elevator 4 in the elevator system 100.

[0039] 3, the state acquisition unit 14 executes an operation state information acquisition process to acquire operation state information of the robot 2 in the car. The acquired operation state information is sent to the abnormality determination unit 16. After the process of step S100 is performed, the process proceeds to step S102.

[0040] In step S102, the abnormality determination unit 16 executes an operation abnormality determination process to determine the presence or absence of an operation abnormality in the robot 2. As a result, if it is determined that there is an operation abnormality, the process proceeds to step S104, and if it is determined that there is no operation abnormality, the process of this routine is terminated.

[0041] In step S104, door-close standby processing is executed. Here, the door opening / closing control unit 26 executes processing to close and maintain the door of the car of the elevator 4. In addition, the dispatch control unit 28 executes processing to move the car to a waiting floor and wait. After the processing of step S104 is executed, the processing proceeds to step S106.

[0042] In step S106, the encryption key generating unit 22 executes an encryption key generating process. The generated set encryption key is sent to the information notifying unit 24. After the process of step S106 is performed, the process proceeds to step S108.

[0043] In step S108, the information notifying unit 24 executes a terminal designation process and a notification process to notify the designated terminal 6 of the set encryption key. After the process of step S108 is executed, the process proceeds to step S110.

[0044] The person to be rescued who manages the designated terminal 6 receives the notification of the set encryption key and inputs the encryption key from the hall button 40. In step S110, the encryption key acquisition unit 32 executes an encryption key reception process to receive the input encryption key input by the person to be rescued. After the process of step S110 is executed, the process proceeds to step S112.

[0045] In step S112, the encryption key comparison unit 34 executes a comparison process to determine whether the input encryption key and the set encryption key match. If the result of the determination is affirmative, the process proceeds to step S114, and if the result of the determination is negative, the process proceeds to step S116.

[0046] In step S114, the door opening / closing control unit 26 executes a release process to open the doors of the elevator 4. Meanwhile, in step S116, the door opening / closing control unit 26 maintains the doors of the elevator 4 in a door-closed state by continuing the door-closing standby process. When the process of step S114 or S116 is executed, the process of this routine is terminated.

[0047] According to the elevator system 100 of the first embodiment described above, when an operational abnormality occurs in the robot 2 in the car, the door of the elevator 4 is kept closed. This ensures the security of the robot 2 until rescue operations are performed by the person to be rescued.

[0048] In addition, in the door-closed standby process, the elevator 4 is moved to a waiting floor suitable for the person to be rescued, enabling the person to quickly provide rescue. In addition, the door-closed standby process is released by inputting the set encryption key notified to a designated terminal managed by the person to be rescued, so it is possible to prevent a third party who has not been notified of the set encryption key from releasing the door-closed standby process. In addition, since the set encryption key is composed of the character string pattern of the hall button, it is possible for the person to enter the encryption key at the hall even if he or she does not have an input terminal.

[0049] 1-4.Modifications The elevator system 100 of the first embodiment may employ the following modified aspects. These modified aspects may also be applied to facility management systems of other embodiments described later.

[0050] 1-4-1. Hardware resources of elevator control device 10

[0051] Fig. 4 is a diagram showing a modified example of the hardware resources of an elevator control device. In the example shown in Fig. 4, the elevator control device 10 includes a processing circuit 72 including, for example, a processor 50, a memory 60, and dedicated hardware 70. Fig. 4 shows an example in which some of the functions of the elevator control device 10 are realized by the dedicated hardware 70. All of the functions of the elevator control device 10 may be realized by the dedicated hardware 70. As the dedicated hardware 70, a single circuit, a composite circuit, a programmed processor, a parallel programmed processor, an ASIC, an FPGA, or a combination thereof can be adopted.

[0052] The memory 60 may be independent of the elevator control device 10, and the role of the memory 60 may be performed by a cloud or the like.

[0053] In addition, in the elevator system 100, all or part of the functions of the elevator control device 10 may be installed in the elevator 4, the robot 2, or the designated terminal 6.

[0054] 1-4-2. Operational abnormality judgment process The operation abnormality determination process is not limited to a mode in which the presence or absence of an operation abnormality is determined based on the operation status information acquired by the status acquisition unit 14. That is, in the operation abnormality determination process, the abnormality determination unit 16 may determine the presence or absence of an operation abnormality of the robot 2 based on, for example, a camera image capturing an image of the inside of a car in which the robot 2 is riding.

[0055] 1-4-3. Door closing standby process In the door-closing standby process, it is not essential that the dispatch control unit 28 moves the car to the waiting floor. In other words, in the door-closing standby process, as long as the door opening / closing control unit 26 at least closes the doors of the elevator 4, the robot 2 can wait for rescue while ensuring security.

[0056] 1-4-4. Encryption key generation process The encryption key generation process performed by the encryption key generation unit 22 is not essential. That is, a predetermined encryption key may be used as the set encryption key. Also, if the predetermined set encryption key is known to the rescue recipient, it is not essential to notify the set encryption key in the notification process performed by the information notification unit 24.

[0057] 2. Embodiment 2 In the second embodiment, differences from the example disclosed in the first embodiment will be described in particular detail. For features not described in the second embodiment, any of the features of the example disclosed in the first embodiment may be adopted.

[0058] 2-1. Functional configuration of the elevator system according to the second embodiment The elevator system 100 of the second embodiment is characterized by a process of setting a waiting floor based on the moving body information of the robot 2. FIG. 5 is a block diagram showing the functions of the elevator control device according to the second embodiment. The elevator control device 10 further includes a waiting floor setting unit 30 in the control unit 20 as a function realized by the processor 50 reading and executing the rescue program 62. The waiting floor setting unit 30 is a functional block for executing a process of setting a waiting floor based on the moving body information. This process is hereinafter referred to as a "waiting floor setting process." In the waiting floor setting process, when the attribute of the robot 2 included in the moving body information is a transport robot, the waiting floor setting unit 30 sets a waiting floor depending on whether or not the robot 2 is transporting luggage. Typically, when the robot 2 as a transport robot is transporting luggage, the waiting floor setting unit 30 sets the transport destination floor of the luggage included in the moving body information as the waiting floor. Also, when the robot 2 as a transport robot is not transporting luggage, or when the attribute of the robot 2 is not a transport robot, the waiting floor setting unit 30 sets the management floor as the waiting floor.

[0059] 2-2. Specific processing executed by the elevator control device according to the second embodiment Fig. 6 is a flowchart of processing executed in the elevator control device according to embodiment 2. The routine shown in Fig. 6 is executed by the processor 50 of the elevator control device 10 executing the rescue program 62 stored in the memory 60. Note that this routine also represents a part of a rescue method for rescuing the robot 2 that has experienced an operational abnormality inside the car of the elevator 4 in the elevator system 100.

[0060] In steps S200 to S206 of the routine shown in Fig. 6, the same processes as those in steps S100 to S106 of the routine shown in Fig. 3 are executed. After the process in step S206 is executed, the process proceeds to step S208.

[0061] In step S208, the waiting floor setting unit 30 executes waiting floor setting processing. Specifically, when the attribute of the robot 2 included in the moving body information is a transport robot and the robot 2 is transporting luggage, the waiting floor setting unit 30 sets the destination floor of the luggage to the waiting floor. On the other hand, when the attribute of the robot 2 included in the moving body information is a transport robot and the robot 2 is not transporting luggage, or when the attribute of the robot 2 is not a transport robot, the waiting floor setting unit 30 sets the management floor to the waiting floor. After the processing of step S208 is executed, the processing proceeds to step S210. In steps S210 to S218, the same processing as steps S108 to S116 of the routine shown in FIG. 3 is executed.

[0062] According to the elevator system 100 of the second embodiment described above, when the robot 2 is a transport robot transporting luggage, the elevator 4 waits at the destination floor of the luggage with the doors of the elevator 4 closed. This allows the recipient of the luggage to efficiently rescue the robot 2 and retrieve the luggage.
