Abstract: Destination calls entered by means of buttons (21-29) are each given a designation unique to the car and pick-up floor for that call and other calls to be serviced therewith, such as a letter (A-E), which is different from any other outstanding calls. Calls can be reassigned among elevators (UL, LL, UR, LR) whether they are in the same or different hoistways (LF, RT). Signs (31-39, 41-49) adjacent each hoistway are illuminated to display the designation of any call which is being answered by an elevator car approaching the floor. Thus, passengers are informed when their call is being answered by the signs identifying the call, rather than identifying any particular car. Another embodiment identifies (60, 31a, 41a) the hoistway landing doorway (1, 2) as well as a letter to allow passengers to wait adjacent to the hoistway landing doorway of the car which will serve them.

Abstract: Un sistema de ascensores que comprende: al menos un hueco de ascensor (27); al menos dos cabinas de ascensor (23, 24) que se desplazan dentro de cada uno de los mencionados huecos de ascensor; al menos un controlador para controlar el funcionamiento de las cabinas del ascensor en cada uno de los huecos del ascensor; por lo que el mencionado controlador que provoca que cada cabina del ascensor se detenga y/o espere con el movimiento adicional de la cabina del ascensor, con el fin de proporcionar el servicio solicitado a sus pasajeros, que provocaría que dicha cabina estuviera demasiado cercana a la otra de las mencionadas cabinas en el mencionado hueco del ascensor; caracterizado por un dispositivo de suministro de mensajes en cada una de las cabinas del mencionado ascensor (30), seleccionando dicho dispositivo de uno o más de un indicador visual (29) que visualizará un mensaje que asegure a los pasajeros que la parada y/o la espera es normal y que no provoque alarma alguna, y un dispositivo audible (33) para presentar el mismo mensaje tal como se presente en la mencionada señalización.

Abstract: A pair of elevator cars ( 23, 24 ) traveling in the same hoistway ( 27 ) in response to a controller ( 28 ) may stop with the doors closed, or remain at a stop with the doors open, whenever one of the cars has to wait until another car moves out of the way before the one elevator car can proceed to finish service to its passengers. Within each cab ( 30 ) both a sign ( 29 ) and a loudspeaker ( 33 ) may present the same message to the passengers, assuring them that the operation is normal and that there is no need for alarm.

Abstract: One of a plurality of cars (17, 18) traveling in a hoistway (10) of an elevator system (9) may be diverted to the hoistway overhead (31) or pit (36) to enable another of the cars to gain access to a floor near or at a terminal floor (11, 14). When such car is at its last stop with doors open, visual (40) and audible (41) indicators present (57, 58) messages to the effect that this is the last stop and passengers should exit. After car doors are closed (66), visual and audible messages (68, 69) relate to the car going to the pit or overhead and that passengers may push any button (to reopen doors). Thereafter, the car moves (75, 76) to the overhead (31) or the pit (36) and presents (82, 83) visual and audible messages to the effect that passengers did not exit at the correct floor and must wait while the other car makes a stop. Once the terminal floor is clear, the diverted car will run (87-89) to that floor, presenting (92, 93) visual and audible messages to the effect that passengers should exit once the doors are open and reenter their service requests.

Abstract: A method of assigning destination calls to cars (A-F) in an elevator system (20) having a plurality of hoistways (21-23) in which there is more than one car in each hoistway includes determining (33) the time for each car to respond to the call Among the cars with an acceptable response time, a determination is made regarding (34) the amount of additional delay in the hoistway that assignment of the call to one car will impose on the either car in the same hoistway. The call is assigned to that car which creates the least additional delay for cars in any hoistway.
