Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for controlling an elevator system comprising at least one shaft (12, 14) and several elevator cars. According to said method, at least two elevator cars can travel separately upwards and downwards along a common track and a passenger can input a destination call using an input unit (77) that is situated outside the shaft, said destination call being assigned to an elevator car in accordance with an allocation rating. The aim of the invention is to further improve said method in such a way that the transport capacity can be increased, whilst ensuring that the elevator cars that can travel along a common track hinder one another as little as possible. To achieve this, when the destination call has been assigned to one of the elevator cars (21, 22) that can travel along the common track, the track section that is required to service the destination call is allocated to said elevator car and is blocked for the other elevator cars for the duration of the assignment. The invention also relates to an elevator system (10) for carrying out said method.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for allocating elevator calls in an elevator system (10) comprising at least one elevator (12a-12c), which elevator system (10) is controlled by an elevator control (16) comprising a destination call allocation control, wherein passenger IDs are inputted into at least one I/O-device (20) of the elevator system (10), whereafter based on the passenger ID a destination call is issued comprising the floor of the I/O-device (20) as departure floor and a preset or inputted destination floor as destination floor of the elevator call. According to the invention when a new destination call is issued, it is checked whether or not a destination call is still pending under the same passenger ID, and if a destination call of said person is still pending, either the new call or the pending call is cancelled.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for handling destination calls in an elevator group comprising several elevators using destination call control, which method comprises an allocation procedure for situations where the calls can't be served by all elevators of the elevator group in one round trip, in which situation "n" open calls and "m" fixed calls are present, which fixed calls are already allocated but not served, in which allocation procedure a genetic algorithm (GA) is used in which the following succession of steps is performed: a) chromosomes comprising genes are formed, in which chromosomes: - n first genes comprise a correlation of each open call and a corresponding elevator, - n second genes comprise a correlation of each open call and the corresponding number of the round trip in which the open call will be served, and - m third genes comprise a correlation of each fixed call and the corresponding number of the round trip in which the fixed call will be served, b) for each chromosome round trips are calculated for each elevator of the elevator group according to collective control, c) the round trips of all elevators calculated in step b) are evaluated according to known optimization criteria, as e.g. passenger riding time, passenger waiting time, energy consumption, minimum number of round trips etc., d) chromosomes which are evaluated in step c) as sufficient are put forward to the forming of a new generation by per se known GA methods, as e.g. cross-breeding, mutation, etc., e) the steps b) to d) are repeated for each chromosome of each new generation of chromosomes until a stop criterion is achieved, f) the calls are served in collective control according to the best chromosome of the last generation, and g) the destinations of each elevator in its travelling direction in the current round trip according to the best chromosome are shown on a at least one common display shortly before its arrival at said landing. The invention solves the elevator dispatching problem under consideration of more than the current round trip of the elevators in the elevator group.
