    Abstract: An elevator system including a group control function section which provides a control instruction for managing the operation of elevators in accordance with demands or conditions based on various kinds of information such as status information of a plurality of elevators and generated hall call information, unit control function sections, provided for respective elevator cages, for controlling the elevators based on the instruction from the group control function section, and a monitor control function section, capable of exchanging information with the control function sections, for monitoring the entire elevator system. The control function sections are connected through a network, and a plurality of logical communication paths are set in the network. Logical connection relationship using independent logical communication paths are established for respective inter-control processes, so that inter-control process communications are executed using packets at high speed. The communication packets are sent to the logically connected control processes, thus realizing control functions of the elevator system.

    Abstract: An elevator control system which provide a high transportation efficiency and also provides for equalization of service quality between floors when a large number of passengers located at different floors desire transportation to a common particular floor. Passengers waiting at a lower level floor will first be picked up prior to the elevator moving to the upper level floors so that the passengers at the lower levels will also be able to get on the elevator when there is a large number of passengers who wish to go to a particular floor during a particular time of the day.

    Abstract: A group control unit 1 performs hall call allocation control to determine the most appropriate of the elevator cars to respond to a hall call 3, 4. This is achieved by carrying out evaluations in accordance with a given traffic demand from the elevator car control units 2-1 to 2-N. The learning control unit 1-1 supplies the appropriate weight factors (control parameters) at a predetermined constant time interval. These control parameters are utilized in carrying out the evaluations and are determined in accordance with a response resulting from the hall call allocation control and the given traffic demand. The learning control unit comprises partial system models representing relationships between the control parameters and the response to different traffic demands in the form of neural networks.

    Abstract: An elevator control system comprises a respective unit controller (11-1...11-n) for each elevator car for controlling the car and inputting/outputting information associated with the car, and a plurality of group controllers (10-1...10-m) for performing an evaluation calculation for determining hall-call assignments and for performing group management of each elevator car on the basis of an evaluation calculation result. The group controllers communicate with each other through a first communication system (TL1), the unit controllers and the group controllers communicate with each other through a second communication system (TL2) independent of the first. The impact of controller faults is thereby minimised. … …
