elevator system

Abstract

To provide an elevator system capable of assisting priority boarding of specific users who require a wider boarding space than general users. [Solution] When an elevator system detects a hall call for priority boarding of a specific user, it performs a space determination process to determine whether a priority boarding space can be secured in the car when the doors open at the specific user's boarding floor. If the space determination process determines that a priority boarding space can be secured, it performs an erroneous entry detection process to detect whether a general user has entered the priority boarding space. If the erroneous entry detection process detects a general user's erroneous entry, it performs an alert process to encourage the erroneous general user to disembark.

[0009] Hereinafter, an embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that elements common to the various drawings are given the same reference numerals and redundant explanations will be omitted.

[0010] Embodiment 1. Overview of elevator system according to embodiment Fig. 1 is a block diagram for explaining an overview of an elevator system according to an embodiment. Elevator system 100 according to this embodiment is a system that gives priority to specific users who require a larger boarding space than general users into the car. Note that "specific users" here include, for example, wheelchair users, stroller users, and cart users.

[0011] The elevator system 100 of the embodiment includes an elevator 2 and an elevator control device 10.

[0012] The elevator 2 is installed in a building, such as a building with multiple floors. A hoistway for the elevator 2 is provided in the building. The hoistway is a long space extending vertically across multiple floors. At each floor, a landing is provided adjacent to the hoistway. A landing button 4 for making a landing call for the elevator 2 is provided on the wall of each landing. The landing button 4 includes a general user button for general users to make a landing call, and a specific user button for specific users to make a landing call. When the general user button is pressed at the landing, a call signal for the general user's landing call is sent to the elevator control device 10. When the specific user button is pressed at the landing, a call signal for the specific user's landing call is sent to the elevator control device 10.

[0013] The elevator 2 comprises, as its main components (not shown), a hoist, a main rope, a car, and a counterweight. The main rope is wound around the 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 2 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.

[0014] A camera 6 and an alarm device 8 are provided inside the car of the elevator 2. The camera 6 is installed in a position that includes the interior of the car of the elevator 2 within its imaging range. Typically, the camera 6 is installed on the ceiling inside the car of the elevator 2. Image data captured by the camera 6 is sent to the elevator control device 10. The alarm device 8 is a device for issuing alarms to passengers inside the car. For example, the alarm device 8 is a speaker for issuing audio alarms. The alarm device 8 outputs audio alarm messages in accordance with alarm instructions, which will be described later, transmitted from the elevator control device 10.

[0015] The elevator control device 10 is a device that performs various controls related to priority boarding for specific users. The elevator control device 10 communicates with the elevator 2 via a communication network such as a LAN or the Internet.

[0016] The elevator control device 10 is a microcomputer including at least one processor 20 and at least one memory 30. The elevator control device 10 is also called an information processing device.

[0017] The memory 30 stores a program 32 and various data 34 for running the program 32. The processor 20 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit). The processor 20 reads and executes the program 32 to realize various functions of the elevator control device 10. The realized functions will be described in detail below. The program 32 may be recorded on a computer-readable recording medium, or may be stored on a server capable of communicating with the elevator control device 10, such as a cloud server.

[0018] Consider the case where a specific user using a wheelchair makes a hall call at the Xth floor of an elevator 2 to which such an elevator system 100 is applied. When the specific user presses the specific user call button, the elevator control device 10 detects a call signal for the specific user's hall call. This process is hereinafter referred to as the "call detection process." The elevator control device 10 moves the car to the Xth floor based on the call signal detected in the call detection process. Figure 2 is a diagram showing the situation when the car has arrived at the Xth floor and its doors have opened. In the example shown in this figure, three passengers P1, P2, and P3 are inside the car with its doors open, and a specific user U1 and a general user U2 are waiting at the hall.

[0019] FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a situation when passengers disembark from an arriving car at a landing on floor X. In the example shown in this figure, two passengers P2 and P3 disembark from the car at the landing on floor X. The elevator control device 10 determines whether passengers in the car who wish to disembark have completed disembarking. This process will be referred to as "disembarkation determination process" hereinafter.

[0020] When it is determined in the disembarking determination process that the passenger has completed disembarking, the elevator control device 10 determines whether a priority boarding space for a specific user can be secured in the car. This process will be hereinafter referred to as the "space determination process." The priority boarding space is a space of a predetermined size required for a specific user to board the car.

[0021] FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a situation when a general user boards a car at a hall on floor X. In the example shown in this figure, a general user U2 who was waiting at hall X boards the car before specific user U1 boards. When it is determined in the space determination process that a priority boarding space can be secured, the elevator control device 10 determines whether a general user has erroneously entered the priority boarding space. This process will be hereinafter referred to as the "erroneous entry determination process."

[0022] FIG. 5 illustrates a situation where a general user erroneously enters a priority boarding space at a landing on the Xth floor. When the erroneous entry determination process determines that a general user has erroneously entered the priority boarding space, the elevator control device 10 outputs a notification message from the notification device 8 to urge the general user U2 who erroneously entered the priority boarding space to exit the elevator. This process is hereinafter referred to as the "notification process." The notification message may be, for example, a voice message such as "A designated user will board first, so please exit the elevator for now." The example shown in FIG. 5 illustrates a situation where the general user U2 who erroneously entered the priority boarding space exits the elevator upon hearing the notification message. FIG. 6 illustrates a situation where a designated user enters the elevator car at a landing on the Xth floor. When the general user U2 who erroneously entered the priority boarding space exits the elevator, a priority boarding space is reserved in the elevator. The example shown in FIG. 6 illustrates a situation where the designated user enters the reserved priority boarding space.

[0023] According to the above-described series of processes of the elevator system 100, if a general user mistakenly enters a priority boarding space reserved in the car, a voice message urging the errant general user to exit the car is played. This ensures that a priority boarding space is reserved in the car, thereby increasing the possibility that specific users will be able to board the car with priority.

[0024] 2. Functional configuration of the elevator control device according to the embodiment Next, the functional configuration of the elevator control device 10 included in the elevator system 100 will be described in more detail. Fig. 7 is a block diagram showing the functions of the elevator control device according to an embodiment. The elevator control device 10 includes a call detection unit 102, an alighting determination unit 104, a space determination unit 106, an erroneous entry detection unit 108, and an alarm unit 110 as functions realized by the processor 20 reading and executing the program 32.

[0025] The call detection unit 102 is a functional block for executing a call detection process. The detection result in the call detection process is sent to the alighting determination unit 104.

[0026] The alighting determination unit 104 is a functional block for executing alighting determination processing. Upon receiving the detection result of the call detection processing, the alighting determination unit 104 executes the alighting determination processing in the car that has arrived at the boarding floor of the specific user. In the alighting determination processing, the alighting determination unit 104 determines whether the passengers in the car have completed alighting based on a camera image of the car interior captured by the camera 6. Alternatively, in the alighting determination processing, the alighting determination unit 104 may determine that the passengers in the car have completed alighting when the elapsed time since the car doors opened exceeds a predetermined determination time. The determination result of the alighting determination processing is sent to the space determination unit 106.

[0027] The space determination unit 106 is a functional block for executing space determination processing. The space determination unit 106 executes the space determination processing upon receiving the determination result of disembarkation completion in the disembarkation determination processing. In the space determination processing, the space determination unit 106 determines whether a priority boarding space is secured in the car based on a camera image of the inside of the car captured by the camera 6. The determination result of the space determination processing is sent to the erroneous entry detection unit 108.

[0028] The erroneous entry detection unit 108 is a functional block for executing the erroneous entry detection process. The erroneous entry detection unit 108 executes the erroneous entry detection process upon receiving a determination result indicating that a priority boarding space has been secured. In the erroneous entry detection process, the erroneous entry detection unit 108 detects that a general user has erroneously entered the priority boarding space in the car based on a camera image of the inside of the car captured by the camera 6. The detection result of the erroneous entry detection process is sent to the notification unit 110.

[0029] The alarm unit 110 is a functional block for executing an alarm process. The alarm unit 110 executes the alarm process upon receiving a detection result indicating that an erroneous intrusion has been detected. In the alarm process, the alarm unit 110 sends an alarm instruction to the alarm device 8 to output a predetermined voice message. As a result, the voice message is output from the alarm device 8.

[0030] 3. Specific processing executed by the elevator control device according to the embodiment Specific processing executed in the elevator control device 10 will be described below with reference to a flowchart. Fig. 8 is a flowchart of processing executed in the elevator control device according to the embodiment. The routine shown in Fig. 8 is executed by the processor 20 of the elevator control device 10 executing the program 32 stored in the memory 30.

[0031] 8, the call detection unit 102 executes a call detection process to determine whether a hall call from a specific user has been detected. If the determination is affirmative, the process proceeds to step S102, and if the determination is negative, the process of this routine is terminated.

[0032] In step S102, the alighting determination unit 104 executes alighting determination process to determine whether the passengers in the car have alighted at the floor where the specific user is boarding. If the determination is not successful, the process of this step is executed again, and if the determination is successful, the process proceeds to step S104.

[0033] In step S104, the space determination unit 106 executes a space determination process to determine whether a priority boarding space is secured in the car. If the determination is found to be successful, the process proceeds to step S106, and if the determination is found to be unsuccessful, the process of this routine is terminated.

[0034] In step S106, the erroneous entry detection unit 108 executes the erroneous entry detection process to determine whether or not an erroneous entry into the priority boarding space by a general user has been detected. If the determination is affirmative, the process proceeds to step S108; if the determination is negative, the process of this routine is terminated.

[0035] In step S108, the notification unit 110 executes notification processing to output a voice message from the notification device 8. When the processing of step S108 is executed, the processing of this routine ends.

[0036] According to the elevator system 100 of the embodiment described above, when a general user mistakenly enters the priority boarding space in the car, a voice message is played to the general user urging the general user to get off. This makes it possible to secure the priority boarding space in the car, thereby increasing the possibility that a specific user will be able to board the car with priority.

[0037] 4. Variations The elevator system 100 according to the embodiment may employ the following modified aspects. These modified aspects may also be applied to elevator systems according to other embodiments described later.

[0038] 4-1. Hardware resources of elevator control device 10

[0039] FIG. 9 is a diagram showing a modified example of the hardware resources of an elevator control device. In the example shown in FIG. 9, the elevator control device 10 includes a processing circuit 42 including, for example, a processor 20, a memory 30, and dedicated hardware 40. FIG. 9 shows an example in which some of the functions of the elevator control device 10 are implemented by the dedicated hardware 40. All of the functions of the elevator control device 10 may also be implemented by the dedicated hardware 40. The dedicated hardware 40 can be a single circuit, a composite circuit, a programmed processor, a parallel programmed processor, an ASIC, an FPGA, or a combination thereof.

[0040] The memory 30 may be independent from the elevator control device 10 and the role thereof may be played by a cloud or the like.

[0041] In the elevator system 100, all or part of the functions of the elevator control device 10 may be installed in the elevator 2 or a remote server.

[0042] 4-2. Notification device 8 The notification device 8 may be configured as a device that outputs a notification message using an image. FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating a modified example of the notification device. In this diagram, the notification device 8 is configured as a projection device 82 that projects an image onto a wall surface inside the car. In the notification process, the notification unit 110 outputs a notification instruction to the projection device 82. The projection device 82 projects and displays a predetermined notification message on the wall, such as "A specific user will board first, so please disembark if you are currently on board." Note that the output format of the notification message using an image is not limited to projection onto a wall surface, and it may also be displayed on a monitor installed inside the car.

[0043] The notification device 8 may also be configured as a device that turns on a light inside the car to encourage passengers to get off. FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating another modified example of the notification device. In this diagram, the notification device 8 is configured as a lighting device 84 installed inside the car. The lighting device 84 is not limited to a specific location, light color, or light pattern, as long as it can encourage passengers inside the car to get off. In the example shown in FIG. 11, the lighting device 84 is configured as a red light installed on the ceiling inside the car. In the notification process, the notification unit 110 outputs a notification instruction to the lighting device 84. The lighting device 84 flashes the red light, causing the entire interior of the car to flash red.

[0044] In the notification process, the notification unit 110 may perform the notification process by combining the above-mentioned audio notification message, image notification message, and lighting of the light.

[0045] 4-3. Space determination process In the space determination process, the space determination unit 106 may determine whether a priority boarding space is reserved in the car based on the detection value detected by the car's weighing device. FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating a modified example of the space determination process. State A in the diagram illustrates a state in which three passengers P1, P2, and P3 are riding in a car with its doors open at a platform on the Xth floor. State B in the diagram illustrates a state in which two passengers P2 and P3 have disembarked from State A. When State A changes to State B, the detection value of the weighing device decreases by the weight of the two disembarking passengers. Therefore, when the detection value of the weighing device decreases by the weight of the number of passengers riding in the priority boarding space—for example, when the boarding space for two passengers corresponds to the size of the priority boarding space—the space determination unit 106 determines that a priority boarding space is reserved in the car when the detection value of the weighing device decreases by more than the weight of two passengers. This configuration enables the space determination process to be performed without performing image analysis of camera images, which involves a high computational load.

[0046] In the space determination process, the space determination unit 106 may determine whether a priority boarding space can be secured based on the area where light irradiated from the ceiling side of the car reaches the floor surface of the priority boarding space. For example, the car floor is equipped with a discrimination function that distinguishes between a light-irradiated area and a non-irradiated area. Fluorescent lights are installed on the ceiling of the car as lighting devices inside the car. In the space determination process, the space determination unit 106 uses the discrimination function to distinguish between a light-irradiated area and a non-irradiated area irradiated with light from the fluorescent lights, and determines that a priority boarding space can be secured if there is a light-irradiated area corresponding to the priority boarding space.

[0047] 4-4. Call detection process The call detection process may be configured to cancel a hall call for a specific user at a hall where the specific user is not waiting. FIG. 13 is a diagram illustrating a modified example of the call detection process. As shown in this figure, the elevator 2 is equipped with one or more surveillance cameras 12 at the hall. The one or more surveillance cameras 12 are mounted in positions that allow them to capture hall images including passengers waiting at the hall. In the call detection process, when the call detection unit 102 detects a call signal indicating that a specific user call button among hall buttons 4 has been pressed, it determines how to handle the detected call signal based on whether the specific user is included in the hall image captured by the surveillance camera 12 at the hall. Specifically, in the call detection process, if the specific user is included in the hall image, the call detection unit 102 detects the call signal as a valid hall call. If the specific user is not included in the hall image, the call detection unit 102 cancels the call signal as an incorrect hall call. This configuration prevents priority boarding for a specific user from being controlled when a general user mistakenly presses a specific user call button.

[0048] 4-5. False intrusion detection process In the accidental entry detection process, the accidental entry detection unit 108 may determine whether a general user has accidentally entered the priority boarding space based on the degree of increase in a non-illuminated area on the floor of the priority boarding space where light irradiated from the car ceiling is blocked. For example, the car floor is equipped with a discrimination function for distinguishing between illuminated and non-illuminated areas. Fluorescent lights are installed on the ceiling of the car as lighting devices for the car. In the accidental entry detection process, the accidental entry detection unit 108 uses the discrimination function to distinguish between illuminated and non-illuminated areas on the floor of the priority boarding space where light irradiated from the fluorescent lights is irradiated, and determines that a priority boarding space can be secured when the proportion of non-illuminated areas in the priority boarding space increases within a predetermined judgment range. The judgment range here is set as the expected range in which light irradiated by a general user is blocked, and is narrower than the expected range in which light irradiated by a specific user is blocked.

[0049] 5.Other Although the preferred embodiments have been described in detail above, the present disclosure is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications and substitutions can be made to the above-described embodiments without departing from the scope of the claims.
