Embodiment 1.
The elevator system 1000 including the elevator control device according to the first embodiment will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. The same reference numerals in the drawings represent the same or equivalent configurations and steps.

FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the entire elevator system 1000 according to the first embodiment. First, the entire elevator system 1000 will be described with reference to FIG.

The elevator system 1000 includes an elevator device 100 installed inside a building and a robot 3 which is an autonomous traveling body capable of riding in a car 1 of the elevator device 100 together with passengers.

The robot 3 is, for example, a cleaning robot that automatically cleans the inside of a building, and moves inside the building according to a program. Further, the robot 3 is provided with a communication device, and uses the elevator device 100 to move between floors by communicating with the landing calling device 5 and the communication device 7 of the elevator device 100, which will be described later. In the present embodiment, the robot 3 has an identification number for each individual, and continues to periodically transmit the identification number from the communication device. Further, the robot 3 disembarks from the car 1 in accordance with the command when the elevator device 100 gives a command.

The elevator device 100 includes a car 1, a rope 14, a landing calling device 5 provided in the landing 2, a driving device 9 for moving the car 1, a control device 10 which is an elevator control device, and a landing 2 (not shown). It has a door. Further, the car 1 includes a weighing device 6, a communication device 7, and a car calling device 8. The landing call is to register the car 1 to go to the landing 2 where the landing call is made by using the landing calling device 5 provided in the landing 2. Car calling is to use the car calling device 8 provided in the car 1 to register the car 1 to face the landing 2 on the floor designated by the passenger.

When the landing call and the car call are made, the control device 10 directs the car 1 to the landing 2 on the destination floor in the order in which the landing call and the car call are made. The destination floor is the floor to which the car 1 registered by the car call and the landing call goes.

If a car call is made to the landing 2 on the way to the destination floor, the car 1 is stopped first at the landing 2 on the floor designated by the car call. For example, even if a car call with the 5th floor as the destination floor has already been made at the platform 2 on the 1st floor, the car call is made to the platform 2 on the 4th floor, which is the platform 2 on the way to the 5th floor. If so, the car 1 first stops at platform 2 on the 4th floor and then heads for platform 2 on the 5th floor.

On the other hand, when a passenger makes a landing call at the landing 2 on the way to the destination floor, the control device 10 determines whether or not the car 1 is full, and if it is not full, the landing call is made. The car 1 is stopped at the landing 2a, which is the landing 2. If it is full, let the car 1 pass through the landing 2a.

The fullness standard, which is the weight that serves as a criterion for determining whether or not the car 1 is full, is a predetermined threshold value smaller than the rated load capacity. The rated load capacity is the boarding limit, which is the limit weight at which the car 1 can be boarded, which is determined by the function and safety of the elevator device 100. That is, when the total weight inside the car 1 measured by the weighing device 6 described later is larger than the rated load capacity, the control device 10 cannot operate the car 1.

The elevator device 100 of the present embodiment has a rated load capacity of 500 kg, and 400 kg, which is 80% of the rated load capacity, is set as a full capacity standard. The occupancy standard is a threshold value set with the expectation that at least one passenger can be additionally boarded when the weight inside the car 1 is less than or equal to the occupancy standard, and of course, other values. But it may be.

According to the present embodiment, the control device 10 acquires the weight of the robot 3 in addition to the weight of the entire inside of the car 1 by using the scale device 6 and the communication device 7. Even if the total weight exceeds the full capacity standard, if the robot 3 is disembarked at the landing 2a and the total weight is less than the full capacity standard, passengers can be boarded at the landing 2a. Judging that it can be done, the car 1 is stopped at the landing 2a. Therefore, it is possible to improve the transportation efficiency of passengers as compared with an elevator control device that does not use the robot load for determination.

Further, according to the present embodiment, the control device 10 further acquires the weight of the passenger waiting for the car 1 at the landing 2a by using the landing calling device 5. Then, when all the passengers in the landing 2a get in the car 1, it is determined whether or not it is necessary to disembark the robot 3 based on whether or not the weight of the entire inside of the car 1 exceeds the rated load capacity. Can be done. Therefore, the transportation efficiency of the robot 3 can be improved as compared with an elevator control device that always disembarks the robot 3 when a passenger gets on the vehicle.

Next, the configuration of the control device 10 will be described in detail with reference to FIG. The control device 10 includes a processor 11 for controlling, a storage unit 12, and an interface 13.

Specifically, the control unit 11a includes a software module that registers the destination floor of the car 1 when the landing call and the car call are made. Further, the control unit 11a is a software module that starts a process of determining whether to stop or pass the car 1 to the landing 2a when the landing is called at the landing 2a on the way to the destination floor of the car 1. It is equipped with. Further, when the control unit 11a determines that the determination unit 11c described later can be boarded, the car 1 is stopped at the landing 2a, and when it is determined that the car 1 cannot be boarded, the control unit 11a passes through the landing 2a in the car 1. It has a software module to let it.

The acquisition unit 11b includes a software module that acquires the total load, which is the total riding load inside the car 1, from the weighing device 6. Further, the acquisition unit 11b receives the identification number transmitted by the robot 3 via the communication device 7, and uses the received identification number to store the identification number in the storage unit 12, which will be described later, from the robot database 15. It is equipped with a software module that acquires the robot load, which is the riding load of the robot 3 inside the robot 3. Further, the acquisition unit 11b includes a software module that acquires a passenger load, which is a passenger load waiting for the car 1 at the landing 2a, from the landing calling device 5. In the present embodiment, the riding load is the weight.

The determination unit 11c disembarks the robot 3 from the car 1 based on the total load and the robot load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b for the car 1 in which the passengers called the landing at the landing 2a on the way to the destination floor. In this case, the software module for determining whether or not the passengers in the landing 2a can get in the car 1 is provided.

Whether the command unit 11d allows passengers to board the car 1 stopped at the landing 2a without disembarking the robot 3 from the car 1 based on the total load and the passenger load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b. It is equipped with a software module that determines whether or not it is. Further, the command unit 11d includes a software module that outputs a disembarkation command to the robot 3 via the communication device 7. Further, the command unit 11d includes a software module for selecting the robot 3 to be disembarked.

The storage unit 12 is a storage device composed of a non-volatile memory and a volatile memory. The non-volatile memory stores the robot database 15, which will be described later. Further, the volatile memory temporarily stores information generated by the processing of the processor 11 and information input from the landing calling device 5, the weighing device 6, the communication device 7, and the car calling device 8 via the interface 13. Is. Further, the temporarily stored information may be stored in the non-volatile memory.

The interface 13 includes a terminal for connecting an electric wire (not shown) connected to the landing calling device 5, the weighing device 6, the communication device 7, the car calling device 8, and the driving device 9. The interface 13 is provided with terminals necessary for operating the other elevator devices 100. Further, the interface 13 may be used as a wireless communication device to be connected to another configuration by wireless communication.

Subsequently, another configuration of the elevator device 100 will be described with reference to FIG.

The landing calling device 5 is provided for each landing 2, and is provided with a button device for calling the landing. This button device has an ascending button and a descending button. This button device outputs to the control device 10 information that there is a landing call and the direction of the pressed button when the button is pressed by a passenger.

The landing calling device 5 in the present embodiment includes a receiving device that receives a landing calling command transmitted from the robot 3. When the landing call command is transmitted from the robot 3, this receiving device receives the landing call command and outputs to the control device 10 that the landing call command has been issued.

The landing calling device 5 in the present embodiment includes an ID (identification) card reader. This ID card reader reads and stores the weight information of the passenger, which is the passenger load registered in the ID card, when the passenger holds the ID card carried by the passenger. Then, when there is an output command from the control device 10, the weight information is output to the control device 10.

The weighing device 6 provided in the car 1 periodically measures the weight of the entire inside of the car 1 and outputs the weight to the control device 10.

The communication device 7 provided in the car 1 includes a receiving device and a transmitting device that communicate with the robot 3. The receiving device receives the identification number transmitted from the robot 3 and outputs it to the control device 10. Further, the receiving device receives the car call command when the car call command including the destination information of the robot 3 is transmitted, and controls the information of the car call command and the destination information of the robot 3. It is output to. The transmission device transmits a disembarkation command to the robot 3 when a command is given from the control device 10.

The car calling device 8 provided in the car 1 is a button device having a plurality of buttons on which the name of the floor is described, and the car is called when the passenger presses the button and the button pressed. This is a button device that outputs the information of the above to the control device 10.

The drive device 9 includes a hoist that moves the car 1 according to a command output from the control device 10. The hoisting machine moves the car 1 by winding up the car 1 and the rope 14 connected to the balance weight (not shown). The drive device 9 also has a configuration such as a brake necessary for driving the car 1.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 to 5. FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing the control of the control device 10 when determining whether to stop or pass the car 1 to the landing 2a.

In the present embodiment, the control unit 11a of the control device 10 outputs information output by the landing calling device 5, the communication device 7, or the car calling device 8 when the passenger or the robot 3 makes a landing call or a car call. Is received via the interface 13, and the destination floor of the car 1 is registered. As described above, the control unit 11a directs the car 1 to the landing 2 on the destination floor in the order in which the landing call and the car call are made. Specifically, a command is output to the drive device 9 to move the car 1 to the destination floor.

When a passenger calls for a landing at the landing 2a on the way from the current position of the car 1 to the destination floor, the control unit 11a determines whether to stop or pass the car 1 to the landing 2a shown in FIG. Start the process to be performed. Specifically, the process is started when the passenger calls the landing area by pressing the button in the same direction as the destination floor of the car 1. More specifically, when the car 1 has a floor above the landing 2a as the target floor, the ascending direction button of the button device provided in the landing calling device 5 is pressed by the passenger, and the information output from the button device. Is received by the control unit 11a via the interface 13, the process is started. If the car 1 is moving and the car 1 cannot be decelerated to stop by the landing 2a, it is preferable to pass the car 1 without making this determination.

When the passengers call the landing area 2a and the control unit 11a starts processing, the acquisition unit 11b acquires the entire internal load of the car 1 in step S11. Specifically, the weight of the entire inside of the car 1 output by the weighing device 6 is received via the interface 13 and temporarily stored in the storage unit 12. Then, the acquisition unit 11b advances the process to step S12.

In step S12, the acquisition unit 11b acquires the robot load by the robot 3 inside the car 1. Specifically, the acquisition unit 11b receives the identification number from the communication device 7 that has received the identification number of the robot 3 transmitted from the robot 3 via the interface 13. Then, the acquisition unit 11b searches the robot database 15 for the robot 3 inside the car 1 using the received identification number.

FIG. 4 is a diagram showing information of the robot database 15. The robot database 15 stores the identification number 15a, the robot name information 15b, the weight information 15c, and the disembarkation availability information 15d in association with each of the robots 3 registered in advance. The identification number 15a corresponds to the identification number transmitted periodically by the robot 3. The robot name information 15b is the name of the robot 3. The weight information 15c is information on the weight of the robot 3, and is information indicating the robot load by the robot. The disembarkation possibility information 15d is information indicating whether or not the robot 3 can be disembarked on the way. For example, if the disembarkation permission information 15d is disabled for the robot 3 to be transported with priority over the passengers, it is possible to prevent the robot 3 from being disembarked by the control device 10 in the middle of the subsequent operation.

The acquisition unit 11b searches the robot database 15 for the robot 3 having the identification number 15a that matches the identification number received from the communication device 7. Then, the information of the robot 3 capable of disembarkation availability information 15d is extracted from the information, and the robot name information 15b and the weight information 15c are associated with each other and temporarily stored in the storage unit 12.

Next, in step S13, the determination unit 11c determines whether or not passengers can board at the landing 2a when the robot 3 is disembarked at the landing 2a based on the total load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b and the robot load. Is determined. At this time, the determination unit 11c determines whether or not the passenger can get on the vehicle based on the robot load of the robot 3 that can get off at the landing 2a.

Specifically, the determination unit 11c determines that boarding is possible when the difference between the total load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b and the robot load is less than or equal to the fullness standard, proceeds to step S2, and when the difference is larger than the fullness standard. Determines that boarding is not possible, and proceeds to step S4.

For example, the car 1 has an overall load of 440 kg, and the car 1 has a robot A having a weight of 100 kg, a robot B having a weight of 60 kg, a robot C having a weight of 70 kg, and a robot D having a weight of 90 kg and being unable to get off the train. Suppose you are on board. In this case, the robot load is 230 kg because the robot A, the robot B, and the robot C, which have a total weight of 230 kg and can get off the vehicle on the way, are on board. Therefore, the difference between the total load and the robot load of the robot 3 capable of getting off the vehicle on the way is 210 kg. This means that the total weight of the passengers inside the car 1, the robot D that cannot be disembarked, and the luggage carried by the passengers other than the robot 3 that can be disembarked is 110 kg. That is, the weight of passengers and the like other than the robot 3 that can get off the vehicle on the way is 400 kg or less, which is the standard for full capacity. Therefore, if the robot 3 is disembarked at the landing 2a, the passengers waiting at the landing 2a can board the robot 3. Therefore, the determination unit 11c determines that the robot 3 can board the robot, and proceeds to step S2.

In step S2, the control unit 11a outputs a command to the drive device 9 to stop the car 1 at the landing 2a. Then, the control unit 11a advances the process to step S3. Step S3 determines whether or not to disembark the robot 3. It will be explained in detail later. After that, the control unit 11a ends the process.

In step S4, the control unit 11a passes the car 1 through the landing 2a without stopping at the landing 2a. Then, the control unit 11a ends the process. After disembarking the passengers and the robot 3 at the other landing 2, the control unit 11a directs the car 1 to the landing 2a that has passed at this time.

Based on the above, it is possible to improve the transportation efficiency of passengers. Conventionally, when the total load is larger than the full load standard, even if most of the total load is due to the robot 3, the passengers at the landing 2a cannot get on. However, according to the present embodiment, if the robot 3 is disembarked at the landing 2a, the passengers at the landing 2a can board the car 1 when the passengers waiting at the landing 2a can board. Therefore, the transportation of passengers can be prioritized over the transportation of the robot 3, and the stress of passengers due to waiting for the car 1 can be reduced.

Next, the determination of whether or not to disembark the robot 3 in step S3 will be described in detail with reference to FIG. Step S3 includes the processes of steps S31 to S35 shown in FIG.

In step S31, the acquisition unit 11b acquires the passenger load waiting for the car 1 at the landing 2a and proceeds to the process in step S32. Specifically, the acquisition unit 11b outputs a passenger weight information output command, which is a passenger load, to the ID card reader provided in the landing calling device 5 via the interface 13, and outputs the passenger weight information to the ID card reader. Output. Then, the acquisition unit 11b receives the passenger weight information output by the ID card reader via the interface 13 and temporarily stores it in the storage unit 12.

The passenger's weight information is always accepted by the ID card reader provided in the landing calling device 5, and is stored in the ID card reader each time the passenger holds the ID card over. .. Then, each time the landing calling device 5 outputs the weight information to the control device 10, the stored weight information is deleted. In the present embodiment, the passenger waiting for the car 1 at the landing 2a is a passenger who holds the ID card over the ID card reader and the weight information is stored in the ID card reader.

In step S32, the control unit 11a opens the door of the landing 2a and the door of the car 1 (not shown), and proceeds to the process in step S33.

In step S33, the command unit 11d determines whether or not the passenger can get in the car 1 without disembarking the robot 3 based on the total load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b for the car 1 stopped at the landing 2a. do. If the boarding is possible, the command unit 11d ends the process without outputting the disembarkation command to the robot 3, and if the boarding is not possible, the command unit 11d advances the process to step S34.

Specifically, the command unit 11d determines that it is possible to board if the sum of the total load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b and the passenger load is less than or equal to the rated load capacity, and if it is larger than the rated load capacity, it is possible to board. Judge that it is not. More specifically, the sum of the total load and the passenger load before the passenger waiting for the car 1 at the landing 2a gets into the car 1 acquired by the acquisition unit 11b before the control unit 11a opens the door in step S32. Calculate and compare with the rated load capacity. When a plurality of passengers are waiting, the sum of the passenger loads of all the passengers waiting for the car 1 at the landing 2a is calculated as the passenger load, and is used for calculating the total load and the sum of the passenger loads.

Next, in step S34, the command unit 11d selects the robot 3 to be disembarked so that the passenger waiting at the landing 2a can get on the car 1, and proceeds to the process in step S35. Specifically, the command unit 11d is a robot that disembarks so that the sum of the total load of the car 1 after disembarking the robot 3 and the passenger load of the passengers waiting for the car 1 is equal to or less than the rated load capacity. Select 3. That is, the disembarkation command is made so that the difference between the sum of the total load and the passenger load before the passenger gets into the car 1 calculated in step S33 and the robot load by the robot 3 to which the disembarkation command is output is equal to or less than the rated load capacity. Select the robot 3 that outputs.

More specifically, the command unit 11d calculates the difference between the sum of the total load and the passenger load and the rated load capacity, and calculates the excess weight exceeding the rated load capacity. Then, the command unit 11d combines the robot loads obtained by the get-off robot 3 acquired by the acquisition unit 11b, enumerates all the combinations in which the total of the robot loads exceeds the calculated excess weight, and temporarily stores them in the storage unit 12. Remember. Then, the command unit 11d selects a combination of the robots 3 to be disembarked from the combinations according to a predetermined rule. In the present embodiment, the command unit 11d selects a combination that minimizes the number of robots 3 to be disembarked. When there are a plurality of minimum combinations, the combination including the robot 3 having the youngest identification number is selected. The robot 3 may be given a priority for getting off in advance.

According to the above example, the total load is 440 kg. Here, it is assumed that the passenger loads of the passengers waiting for the car 1 at the landing 2a acquired by the acquisition unit 11b in step S31 are 60 kg and 80 kg. At this time, since the sum of the total load and the passenger load is 580 kg, the weight exceeding the rated load capacity of 500 kg is 80 kg. Of the robot loads obtained by the getting-off robot 3 acquired by the acquisition unit 11b, the combinations exceeding 80 kg are the following five combinations. Here, the combination of robot A and robot B is represented as (A, B).
(A), (A, B), (A, C), (B, C), (A, B, C)

Therefore, according to the predetermined rule in the present embodiment, the command unit 11d selects a combination in which only the robot A is disembarked, which is the minimum number of robots 3 to be disembarked.

In step S35, the command unit 11d outputs a disembarkation command to the robot 3 and ends the process. Specifically, an instruction for transmitting a disembarkation command to the robot 3 selected in step S34 is output from the interface 13 to the communication device 7. Then, the communication device 7 outputs a disembarkation command to the robot 3 selected in step S34.

Based on the above, it is possible to determine whether or not it is necessary to disembark the robot 3 with respect to the car 1 stopped at the landing 2a. Therefore, the transportation efficiency of the robot 3 can be improved as compared with an elevator control device that always disembarks the robot 3 when a passenger gets on the vehicle.

Further, since the robot 3 to be disembarked in order to get passengers can be selected and disembarked, the transportation efficiency of the robot 3 can be improved as compared with the elevator control device that disembarks all the robots 3. Can be done.

Embodiment 2.
In step S13 of the first embodiment, it is determined whether to stop or pass the car 1 at the landing 2a based on the total load and the robot load, and the passenger load is not considered in this determination.

This embodiment is another embodiment of the above determination, and is used for determining whether or not to stop the car 1 at the landing 2a by using the passenger load, which is the weight of the passengers waiting for the car 1 at the landing 2a. This is intended to further improve the transportation efficiency of passengers. Hereinafter, the differences from the first embodiment will be mainly described with reference to FIG.

First, the configuration of the present embodiment will be described. The landing calling device 5 in the present embodiment includes a button device, a receiving device, and an ID card reader as in the first embodiment. The ID card reader in the present embodiment prohibits the button device from outputting to the control device 10 when no weight information is stored. Further, the ID card reader cancels the prohibition of output to the control device 10 by the button device when one or more body weight information is stored.

Further, the determination unit 11c of the present embodiment is based on the total load, the robot load, and the passenger load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b for the car 1 in which the passengers called the landing at the landing 2a on the way to the destination floor. The robot 3 is provided with a software module for determining whether or not the passengers in the landing 2a can get in the car 1 when the robot 3 is disembarked from the car 1.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described. Similar to the first embodiment, the control unit 11a starts a process of determining whether to stop or pass the car 1 to the landing 2a when a passenger calls the landing at the landing 2a on the way to the destination floor. .. In the present embodiment, when no weight information is stored in the ID card reader, passengers cannot call the landing. Therefore, the process is started when the button of the button device is pressed while one or more body weight information is stored in the ID card reader.

In step S12 of the first embodiment, the acquisition unit 11b advances the process to step S13, but in the present embodiment, the process proceeds to step S14. Step S14 is a step of performing the same processing as step S31 of the first embodiment, and the acquisition unit 11b acquires the passenger load of the passengers waiting for the car 1. Then, the acquisition unit 11b advances the process to step S15.

In step S15, the determination unit 11c determines whether or not the passenger waiting for the car 1 at the landing 2a can get in the car 1 based on the passenger load in addition to the total load and the robot load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b. To judge. The determination unit 11c advances the process to step S2 when it is possible to board, and proceeds to step S4 when it is not possible to board.

Specifically, in the determination unit 11c, the sum of the difference between the total load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b and the robot load and the passenger load of the passengers waiting for the car 1 acquired by the acquisition unit 11b is equal to or less than the rated load capacity. If, it is determined that the passenger can board. Then, when the load capacity is larger than the rated load capacity, it is determined that the vehicle cannot be boarded.

More specifically, the determination unit 11c determines the difference between the total load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b and the robot load, and the passenger load of at least one passenger waiting for the car 1 acquired by the acquisition unit 11b. When the sum is less than or equal to the rated load capacity, it is determined that the passenger can board. That is, the determination unit 11c refers to the weight of the passenger temporarily stored in the storage unit 12 by the acquisition unit 11b, and obtains the sum of the weight of the lightest passenger and the difference between the total load and the robot load. Compare with the rated load capacity.

According to the present embodiment, it is possible to determine whether or not the passenger can get on the train more accurately than in the first embodiment, so that the transportation efficiency of passengers can be further improved.

Specifically, in the first embodiment, even if the passengers in the landing 2a pass through the car 1 even though they can get in the car 1, the car 1 is stopped according to the present embodiment. Can be done. For example, when the total load is 440 kg and the robot load is 30 kg, even if the passenger load of the passenger waiting for the car 1 at the landing 2a is 80 kg, according to the first embodiment, the total load and the robot load Since the difference of 410 kg is larger than the full capacity standard of 400 kg, the control unit 11a causes the car 1 to pass through the landing 2a. On the other hand, according to the present embodiment, since the passenger load is 80 kg, the sum of the total load and the robot load of 490 kg is 500 kg or less, which is the rated load capacity. Can be stopped at the platform 2a.

On the contrary, in the first embodiment, even if the passenger in the landing 2a cannot get in the car 1 but the car 1 is stopped, according to the present embodiment, the passenger passes through the car 1. Can be made to. For example, when the total load is 440 kg and the robot load is 50 kg, even if the passenger load of the passenger waiting for the car 1 at the landing 2a is 120 kg, according to the first embodiment, the total load and the robot load Since the difference of 390 kg is 400 kg or less, which is the standard for full capacity, the control unit 11a stops the car 1 at the landing 2a. On the other hand, according to the present embodiment, since the passenger load is 120 kg, 510 kg, which is the sum of the total load and the robot load, is larger than the rated load capacity of 500 kg, so that the control unit 11a is placed in the car 1. 2a can be passed.

Embodiment 3.
Similar to the second embodiment, the present embodiment is another embodiment of the determination of whether or not the passenger in the first embodiment can be boarded. In this embodiment, the total load and the full load are compared before the robot load is acquired. Hereinafter, the differences from the first embodiment will be mainly described with reference to FIG. 7.

First, the configuration of the present embodiment will be described. The determination unit 11c of the present embodiment includes, in addition to the software module provided in the first embodiment, a software module for determining whether or not the total load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b is larger than the full capacity standard. ..

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described. In step S11 of the first embodiment, the acquisition unit 11b advances the process to step S12, but in the present embodiment, the process proceeds to step S16. In step S16, the determination unit 11c compares the total load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b with the fullness standard, and if the total load is less than or equal to the fullness standard, the process proceeds to step S2, and if the total load is larger than the fullness standard, the process proceeds to step S2. , The process proceeds to step S12. Then, in step S12, the robot load of the robot 3 that can get off is acquired in the same manner as in the first embodiment, and the process proceeds to step S13.

According to the present embodiment, it is possible to improve the transportation efficiency of passengers as in the first embodiment. Further, since the number of times the robot load is acquired can be reduced, the processing cost can be reduced.

Embodiment 4.
Similar to the second and third embodiments, the present embodiment is another embodiment of the determination of whether or not the passengers in the first embodiment can board. This embodiment is different from the first to third embodiments, and when the robot 3 is disembarked from the car 1 based on the total load and the robot load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b, the passengers get off at the landing 2a. It is for determining whether or not it is possible to get in the car 1. Since the passenger load is acquired by the acquisition unit 11b in the present embodiment as in the second embodiment, the differences from the second embodiment will be mainly described below with reference to FIG.

First, the configuration of the present embodiment will be described. In the second embodiment, when the robot 3 is disembarked from the car 1 based on the total load, the robot load, and the passenger load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b, the passengers in the landing 2a get on the car 1. It had a software module to determine if it was possible. In the present embodiment, this software module included in the determination unit 11c includes a software module for determining whether or not the total load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b is equal to or less than the fullness standard, and a robot load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b. A software module for determining whether or not the load is equal to or greater than the passenger load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b is provided.

In step S14 of the second embodiment, the acquisition unit 11b proceeded to the process to step S15. In the present embodiment, the acquisition unit 11b advances the process to step S17.

In step S17, at least one of the cases where the total load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b is equal to or less than the fullness standard, or the robot load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b is equal to or greater than the passenger load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b. If either of the conditions is satisfied, it is determined that the passenger can board the vehicle, and the process proceeds to step S2. If neither of the conditions is satisfied, it is determined that the passenger cannot board the vehicle, and the process proceeds to step S4. The passenger load to be compared with the robot load is the weight of the lightest passenger among the passengers temporarily stored in the storage unit 12 by the acquisition unit 11b, as in step S15 of the second embodiment.

According to the present embodiment, it is possible to improve the transportation efficiency of passengers as compared with the elevator control device that does not use the robot load for determining whether or not the vehicle can be boarded. Even if the overall load is larger than the full load standard, if a robot 3 that is heavier than the passengers is in the car 1, it is determined that the passengers can get in if the robot 3 is disembarked, and control is performed. This is because the unit 11a stops the car 1 at the landing 2a.

Embodiment 5.
This embodiment is another embodiment of the determination of whether or not to disembark the robot 3 in step S3 of the first embodiment. The present embodiment is different from the first embodiment, and it is determined whether or not the passenger can get in the car 1 when the robot 3 is not disembarked, based on the total load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b. It is a thing. Hereinafter, the differences from the first embodiment will be mainly described with reference to FIG. FIG. 9 shows the process included in step S3 as in FIG.

First, the configuration of the present embodiment will be described. The command unit 11d includes a software module that determines whether or not a passenger can get in the car 1 without dismounting the robot 3 from the car 1 based on the total load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b. Further, the command unit 11d of the present embodiment does not include a software module for selecting the robot 3 to be disembarked.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described. In step S2 of the first embodiment, the control unit 11a has advanced the process to step S31 included in step S3. In the present embodiment, the process of acquiring the passenger load in step S31 is not performed. In step S2 of this embodiment, the control unit 11a advances the process to step S32. Then, in step S32 of the first embodiment, the control unit 11a advances the process to step S33, but in the present embodiment, the process proceeds to step S36.

In step S36, the command unit 11d compares the total load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b with the full load standard for the car 1 stopped at the landing 2a, and if the total load is equal to or less than the full load standard, the robot 3 is not disembarked. However, it is determined that the passenger can get in the car 1, and the process is terminated without outputting the disembarkation command to the robot 3. On the other hand, if the total load is larger than the full load, the command unit 11d advances the process to step S37.

In step S37, the command unit 11d outputs a disembarkation command to all the robots 3 inside the car 1 and ends the process.

Also in the present embodiment, regardless of the load inside the car 1, the transportation efficiency of the robot 3 can be improved as compared with the elevator control device that disembarks the robot 3 whenever a passenger gets on the vehicle.

Embodiment 6.
The control device 10 of the first to fifth embodiments was provided in the elevator device 100 provided with one car 1. The control device 20 which is the elevator control device of the present embodiment is provided in the elevator device 200 provided with a plurality of cages 1a, 1b, 1c. Hereinafter, the differences from the first embodiment will be mainly described with reference to FIGS. 10 to 12. First, the configuration of the elevator device 200 including the control device 20 of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

In the first embodiment, the elevator device 100 includes one car 1 and one driving device 9 for driving the car 1. The elevator device 200 of the present embodiment includes three cars 1a, a car 1b, and a car 1c, and a drive device 9a, a drive device 9b, and a drive device 9c for driving them, respectively. Further, the doors of the landing 2 (not shown) are provided in each of the baskets 1a, 1b, and 1c. The cars 1a, 1b, and 1c in the present embodiment include a weighing device 6, a communication device 7, and a car calling device 8 as in the car 1 of the first embodiment. In the following description, when a plurality of cars 1a, 1b, and 1c are described without being specified, this is referred to as a car 1.

The processor 11 of the control device 20 includes a control unit 11e, an acquisition unit 11b, a determination unit 11c, and a command unit 11d, which are provided with software modules different from those of the control unit 11a of the first embodiment.

The control unit 11e includes control of the acquisition unit 11b, the determination unit 11c, and the command unit 11d, as well as the cages 1a, 1b, 1c, the landing calling device 5, the driving devices 9a, 9b, 9c, and the door of the landing 2 (not shown). It includes a software module that controls the entire elevator device 200.

Specifically, the control unit 11e includes a software module that extracts candidates for the car 1 to be assigned to the landing 2a from a plurality of cars 1a, 1b, 1c. Further, the control unit 11e includes a software module that calculates the time until the extracted plurality of cars 1a, 1b, 1c arrive at the landing 2a, and allocates the car 1 that arrives at the landing 2a earliest to the landing 2a. There is.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described.

In the first embodiment for controlling one car 1, the control unit 11a determines that the car can be boarded when the boarding area call is made at the landing area 2a on the way to the destination floor. 1 was stopped at the landing 2a, and when it was determined that the vehicle could not be boarded, the car 1 was allowed to pass through the landing 2a.

Similar to the first embodiment of the present embodiment in which the plurality of cars 1a, 1b, 1c are controlled, the control unit 11e determines the car 1 in which the landing call is made at the landing 2a on the way to the destination floor. When 11c determines that passengers can board the platform 2a, the car 1 is stopped at the platform 2a, and when it is determined that the passengers cannot board the vehicle 1, the car 1 is passed through the platform 2a.

However, the control unit 11e in the present embodiment controls a plurality of cars 1a, 1b, 1c. Therefore, even if the determination unit 11c determines that a certain car 1 can be boarded, if there is a car 1 that can arrive at the landing 2a before the car 1, the control unit 11e arrives first. Give priority to the possible car 1 and stop at the landing 2a.

Hereinafter, it will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 11 and 12. FIG. 11 is a flowchart showing control when the control device 20 assigns the car 1 to the landing 2a when the landing is called at a certain landing 2a.

When the landing call is made at the landing 2a, the control unit 11e starts a process of determining the car 1 to be stopped at the landing 2a. That is, the control unit 11e starts a process of determining the car 1 to be assigned to the landing 2a.

When the passengers call the landing area 2a and the control unit 11e starts processing, the control unit 11e extracts a car 1 that is a candidate to be assigned to the landing area 2a from the plurality of cars 1a, 1b, 1c in step S5. do. Specifically, among the car 1 that is out of order, the car 1 that already has the floor opposite to the landing 2a as the destination floor, and the car 1 that was called at the landing 2a on the way to the destination floor. The car 1 that passengers cannot board at the landing 2a is excluded from the car 1 that is a candidate to be assigned to the landing 2a.

Regarding the process of excluding the car 1 that passengers cannot board at the landing 2a from the car 1 that is a candidate to be assigned to the landing 2a among the cars 1 that were called at the landing 2a on the way to the destination floor, using FIG. explain. Step S5 of FIG. 11 includes the processes of steps S50 to S54 described in FIG. 12.

In step S5, the control unit 11e performs the process of step S50 for the failed car 1 and the car 1 whose target floor is in the direction opposite to the landing 2a. In step S50, the control unit 11e excludes the failed car 1 and the car 1 whose target floor is in the direction opposite to the landing 2a from the candidate car 1 to be assigned to the landing 2a. Then, the control unit 11e advances the process to step S51.

The control unit 11e performs the processes from step S51 to step S54 for the car 1 for which the landing call was made at the landing 2a on the way to the destination floor. Step S51 is the same process as step S11 of the first embodiment. In step S51, the acquisition unit 11b advances the process to step S52. Step S52 is the same process as step S12 of the first embodiment. In step S52, the acquisition unit 11b advances the process to step S53.

Step S53 is the same process as step S13 of the first embodiment. In step S13 of the first embodiment, the determination unit 11c determines that the vehicle can be boarded when the difference between the total load acquired by the acquisition unit 11b and the robot load is equal to or less than the full capacity standard, and proceeds to step S2. When it was larger than the full capacity standard, it was determined that it was not possible to board the vehicle, and the process proceeded to step S4. In step S53 of the present embodiment, the determination unit 11c does not perform the processing of step S54 for the car 1 determined to be boardable, proceeds to step S6, and processes the car 1 determined to be non-boardable. To step S54.

In step S54, the control unit 11e excludes the car 1 determined in step S53 that it is not possible to board from the candidates to be assigned to the landing 2a, and proceeds to the process in step S6.

In step S6, the control unit 11e determines whether or not there is a car 1 that is a candidate for allocation to the landing 2a. If there are no candidates, the extraction of the candidates in step S5 is repeated. If there is a candidate car 1, the process proceeds to step S7.

In step S7, the control unit 11e calculates the time required to arrive at the landing 2a for each of the cars 1 that are candidates for allocation to the extracted landing 2a. In this calculation, in addition to the simple distance to the landing 2a, other factors such as adding 30 seconds if there is already a landing 2 stopped on the way, and other factors that delay the arrival of the car 1 are also calculated. Then, the control unit 11e advances the process to step S8.

In step S8, the control unit 11e allocates the car 1 that arrives at the landing 2a earliest to the landing 2a. Specifically, the control unit 11e outputs a command to the drive devices 9a, 9b, 9c corresponding to the car 1 arriving at the landing 2a earliest, and stops the car 1 at the landing 2a.

According to the above, even in the elevator device 200 provided with a plurality of cars 1a, 1b, 1c, if the passengers can get on at the landing 2a when the robot 3 is disembarked, it can be a candidate for allocation. Therefore, it is possible to improve the transportation efficiency of passengers as in other embodiments. Further, since the car 1 that is a candidate for allocation can be extracted before the arrival time to the landing 2a is calculated, an elevator that calculates the arrival time to the landing 2a regardless of whether or not the vehicle can be boarded. Compared with the control device, the cost of calculation can be reduced.

Although the embodiment has been described above, the present invention is not limited to this embodiment. A modified example is shown below.

In the embodiment, the robot 3 automatically moves in the building according to a program, but the robot 3 which is an autonomous traveling body may be any self-propelled robot 3. Here, the self-propelled type means that the robot can travel without human hands, and is not limited to the robot 3 itself that determines the destination. For example, it may move in the building according to a command from the control devices 10 and 20 of the elevator devices 100 and 200 or a device that controls the entire building. Further, in normal times, the robot 3 may travel according to a program provided in itself, and when there is an operation by a person, the robot 3 may travel according to the operation.

In the embodiment, the acquisition unit 11b acquires the total load, the robot load, and the passenger load from the weighing device 6, the robot database 15, and the landing calling device 5, respectively. However, in order to solve the problem, any method that can acquire these riding loads may be used, and the description is not limited to the description of the embodiment.

For example, by installing a photographing device in the car 1 and the landing 2, extracting the feature amount from the image data of the photographed passenger and the robot 3 and collating it with the database stored in the storage unit 12, the weight which is the riding load is acquired. You may try to do it. That is, for example, instead of the identification number 15a of the robot database 15, the feature amount of the robot 3 obtained from the captured image data may be used. Alternatively, the passenger may be asked to enter the weight.

Further, the number of passengers may be acquired by using a photographing device or the like, and the passenger load may be acquired by, for example, estimating the number of passengers as 60 kg per person. In the embodiment, the weight is acquired from the robot database 15 based on the identification number transmitted by the robot 3, but the robot 3 may transmit the weight. In particular, since the weight of the robot 3 that carries an object can change, the robot load may be acquired from the robot 3 that transmits the current weight via the communication device 7.

In the embodiment, the riding load is weight, but it may be an area occupied by the passenger or the robot 3 in the car 1. In that case, for example, the robot load and the passenger load are acquired by the same method as in the embodiment, and the total load is acquired by using the photographing device instead of the weighing device 6.

In the embodiment, the boarding limit is the rated load capacity, but is not limited to this. For example, in order to prevent deterioration of parts, the riding limit may be set below the rated load capacity. Further, when the area occupied by the passenger or the robot 3 is used as the riding load, the floor area of the car 1 may be used as the riding limit.

In the embodiment, the occupancy standard is 80% of the rated load capacity, but the occupancy standard may be a predetermined threshold value, for example, it may be set to 90% of the rated load capacity, or the time. It may be changed by a band or the like.

In the embodiment, the landing calling device 5 includes a button device including an ascending button and a descending button. The landing call device 5 may be any device that can output the fact that there is a landing call to the control device 10. For example, a landing calling device 5 may be used in which passengers can specify the floor of the destination at the landing 2.

In the embodiment, the control units 11a and e have started the process of determining whether to stop or pass the car 1 to the landing 2a when the landing is called at the landing 2a. This process does not have to be started when the landing call is made at the landing 2a as long as it is started when the landing call is made at the landing 2a. For example, the car 1 may be started after approaching the landing 2a, or may be started every time the number of passengers waiting at the landing 2a increases or decreases. Further, when the car 1 stops at the landing 2 on the way to the landing 2a and the total load or the robot load changes, the processing may be restarted.

In the embodiment, four types of modes 1 to 4 have been described as the processing of the determination unit 11c, but when the robot 3 is disembarked from the car 1 based on the total load and the robot load, the landing 2a Anything can be used as long as it determines whether or not the passenger can get in the car 1. Further, the process of calculating the sum or difference of the riding load in the embodiment and comparing it with the rated load capacity or the full capacity standard may be compared by another process. For example, in step S15 of the second embodiment, the determination unit 11c calculates the sum of the difference between the total load and the robot load and the passenger load of the passengers waiting at the landing 2a, and compares it with the rated load capacity. Of course, this may be calculated by calculating the sum of the total load and the passenger load and comparing it with the sum of the rated load capacity and the robot load.

Of course, the contents of the embodiments may be combined with each other. For example, if the passenger load can be acquired, the process of step S15 of the second embodiment may be performed, and if the passenger load cannot be acquired, the process of step S13 of the first embodiment may be performed. For example, when the landing call is made, if the ID card reader provided in the landing calling device 5 stores the weight information of one or more passengers, the process of step S15 is performed and the weight information is stored. If not, the process of step S13 may be performed. Further, for example, the process of step S16 of the third embodiment may be performed after the step S11 of the second embodiment.

In the embodiment, two types of processing, the first embodiment and the fifth embodiment, have been described as the processing of the command unit 11d, but the passenger can get into the car 1 without disembarking the robot 3 based on the total load. Anything can be used as long as it determines whether or not the above is the case, and the embodiment is not limited to the embodiment. Further, as a matter of course, the combination of the processing of the determination unit 11c and the processing of the command unit 11d according to the first to fourth embodiments may not be the combination described in the embodiment.

In order to solve the problem, the passengers on board may disembark the robot 3 without providing the command unit 11d, that is, without performing the process of step S3. Further, the robot 3 may always be disembarked.

Further, when the passenger load is not required in both the processing of the determination unit 11c and the processing of the command unit 11d as in the fifth embodiment, in order to acquire the passenger load such as the ID card reader of the landing calling device 5. It does not have to have the configuration of.

In the sixth embodiment, the elevator device 200 provided with a plurality of cars 1a, 1b, 1c has been described. However, in order to solve the problem, when the determination unit 11c determines that the car can be boarded, the car 1 is placed in the landing 2a. The method of allocating the control unit 11e is not limited to the description of the embodiment as long as the vehicle is stopped at the vehicle 1 and the vehicle 1 is passed through the landing 2a when it is determined that the vehicle cannot be boarded.

For example, instead of performing the process of step S7, the car 1 that is a candidate for allocation may be randomly assigned to the landing 2a by the process of step S5. Further, for example, assuming that it is determined whether or not to stop the car 1 at the landing 2a as in the first embodiment without performing the process of step S5, the time until the car 1 arrives at the landing 2a is calculated. Then, by allocating the car 1 that arrives earliest, as a result, if it is determined that the determination unit 11c can be boarded, the car 1 is stopped at the landing 2a, and if it is determined that the boarding is not possible, the car 1 is assigned. You may let it pass through the landing 2a. Further, of course, the processing of the determination unit 11c is not limited to the processing of the sixth embodiment, and for example, by the processing of step S15 of the second embodiment, it is determined whether or not the passenger can board the car 1 at the landing 2a. You may do it.

In the sixth embodiment, after the processing of step S8 may be performed, the processing of step S3 of the first embodiment may be performed. Further, in the embodiment, if there is already a landing 2 that stops on the way, 30 seconds are added, and the time until the landing 2a is reached is calculated in units of time, but it is converted into an evaluation value, etc. The time required to arrive at the landing 2a may be calculated using another unit.

In the embodiment, the acquisition unit 11b acquires the robot load of the robot 3 that can get off at the landing 2a, and the determination unit 11c acquires the robot load of the robot 3 that can get off at the landing 2a, and the passenger can get on at the landing 2a based on the robot load of the robot 3 that can get off at the landing 2a. It was to judge whether or not it was. However, in order to solve the problem, it is not necessary for the robot 3 to have a function of changing the process depending on whether or not the robot 3 can get off at the landing 2a.

In the second and fourth embodiments, the determination unit 11c is used to determine whether or not the weight of the lightest passenger among the passengers acquired by the acquisition unit 11b can be boarded. Of course, the weights of all or a plurality of passengers waiting at the landing 2a may be used to determine that the passengers can board when all or a plurality of passengers can board. In addition, the sum of the weight of the heaviest passenger and the difference between the total load and the robot load is calculated and compared with the rated load capacity so that at least one passenger waiting at the landing 2a can board. You may.

Further, in the embodiment, when a plurality of passengers are waiting at the landing 2a, the command unit 11d uses the sum of the passenger loads of all the passengers waiting for the car 1 at the landing 2a as the passenger load. The passenger load may be the sum of the passenger load or the passenger load of a plurality of passengers.

In the fifth embodiment, the command unit 11d disembarks all the robots 3 without performing the process corresponding to step S34 of the first embodiment, but the car 1 after disembarking the robot 3 The robot 3 to be disembarked may be selected so that the total load is equal to or less than the full load standard.

The total load acquired by the acquisition unit is less than or equal to a predetermined threshold for the acquisition unit that acquires the passenger load, which is the passenger load of the vehicle, and the car that the passengers called for the landing on the way to the destination floor. In this case, or if the robot load acquired by the acquisition unit satisfies at least one of the cases where the load is equal to or greater than the passenger load acquired by the acquisition unit, it is determined that the vehicle can be boarded. It is equipped with a determination unit for determining, and a control unit for stopping the car at the landing when the determination unit determines that the vehicle can be boarded, and for passing the car through the landing when it is determined that the vehicle cannot be boarded. ..

For example, the car 1 has an overall load of 440 kg, and the car 1 has a robot A having a weight of 100 kg, a robot B having a weight of 60 kg, a robot C having a weight of 70 kg, and a robot D having a weight of 90 kg and being unable to get off the train. Suppose you are on board. In this case, the robot load is 230 kg because the robot A, the robot B, and the robot C, which have a total weight of 230 kg and can get off the vehicle on the way, are on board. Therefore, the difference between the total load and the robot load of the robot 3 capable of getting off the vehicle on the way is 210 kg. This means that the total weight of the passengers inside the car 1, the robot D that cannot be disembarked, and the luggage carried by the passengers other than the robot 3 that can be disembarked is 210 kg. That is, the weight of passengers and the like other than the robot 3 that can get off the vehicle on the way is 400 kg or less, which is the standard for full capacity. Therefore, if the robot 3 is disembarked at the landing 2a, the passengers waiting at the landing 2a can board the robot 3. Therefore, the determination unit 11c determines that the robot 3 can board the robot, and proceeds to step S2.
