Abstract in simplified Chinese:一种方法,其用于在一电梯系统中自动提示一机箱调用、判定乘客数目、分配电梯替代者给乘客作为服务电梯机箱。判定含有至少一驻停时间因子之一成本函数,用于计算每一替代者之成本值。该电梯系统包括用于监视乘客动作之门传感设备及监测设备,借此界定一乘客的行进路径之起点及终点。该方法亦包括计算一乘客行进时段,借此预测乘客到达候梯厅之时间。将给予最低成本值之替代者分配给乘客作为服务电梯机箱。该电梯系统亦经由一或多个通信链结自外部设备接收信息以进行系统操作。
Abstract in simplified Chinese:在本创作用于数个升降机组(Gl至G5)之控制设备中,旅客可在任何所期望之目的地调用输入设备(TE)来输入他的行程目的地,而不需知道那一升降机组(Gl至G5)服务所期望之楼层。在大建筑物中,其中个别升降机组(G1至G5)所服务之楼层区域,由于建造原因而以不清楚而可查知之方式相互邻接地配置,使得旅客找寻该升降机更容易。多组控制设备总是自全部可用升降机来选择最适用之升降机,且当数个升降机组(Gl至G5)所服务之楼层区域重叠时,选择方式是由全部有关之升降机所决定。假如必需实施转换,则该转接升降机显示在显示器上。
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method of providing a seamless wireless connection in an elevator system of a building. The method comprises receiving an elevator car request from a passenger who is on a source floor, dispatching an elevator car to the source floor in response to the elevator car request, selecting at least one wireless local area network (WLAN) established in the building, and forwarding the selected at least one WLAN via a network node placed in at least one of an elevator hall of the source floor, the dispatched elevator car, or an elevator hall of a destination floor.
Abstract:
An illustrative example method of controlling an elevator system includes receiving a first request for elevator service from a requestor, receiving a second request for elevator service from the requestor while the first request is still pending, and controlling the elevator system to provide elevator service for only one of the first request or the second request.
Abstract:
An elevator trip based on destinations and activity parameters of a user is planned by a system having an elevator controller of an elevator installation, a storage device storing building plan data and a route planning computer. The user's trip inquiry, including a desired destination and a desired activity parameter, is received by the planning computer. Building plan data is read from the storage device by the planning computer. The current location of the user is determined by the planning computer, which calculates at least one route proposal based on the user's location, the destination and the activity parameter. The route proposal is communicated to the user. Upon receipt of a confirmation that the user selected the route proposal, a control signal identifying a boarding floor and a destination floor is transmitted by the planning computer to the elevator controller. The elevator installation is controlled according to the control signal.
