Definitions

  • the invention relates to call registration and display devices for elevators with immediate allocation of destination calls arranged on at least one floor, each call registration and display device having a 10-key keyboard for entering calls for desired destination floors, call memories connected to a group control device and a display field in which at least a first optical display element signaling the selected destination floor and a second optical display element signaling an assigned elevator are arranged, and wherein the first display element is connected to the 10-key keyboard via a first control circuit and the second display element is connected to the 10 via a second control circuit Group control device is connected.
  • a call registration and display device which has a display field with several display elements.
  • a first display element signals the selected destination floor in the form of a one- or two-digit decimal number, a second the assigned elevator in the form of a capital letter. Further display elements signal an incorrect call input in the form of a double question mark and the position of the assigned elevator relative to the actuated keyboard in the form of arrows pointing to the left or to the right.
  • the display elements are activated during call input and call allocation by means of control circuits which are connected to a 10-key pad, the 10-key pad connected to the call memories and a group control device.
  • the display elements are made up of light-emitting diodes that light up when activated and go out again after about two seconds.
  • Such call registration and display devices are designed for group control devices for elevators, in which no call buttons are provided in the elevator cars.
  • a group control device which has become known from EP-A 0 356 731, when a call is input on a floor, a call characterizing the input floor and a call characterizing the destination floor are stored for each elevator in the group.
  • Each elevator has a computer in the form of a microprocessor and a comparison device. Immediately after registering a call, the computer calculates a sum corresponding to the average waiting time of all passengers, also called service costs, from elevator-specific data. During an immediately following comparison of the operating costs of all elevators, the elevator with the lowest operating costs is determined, to which the relevant call is then allocated.
  • the elevator in question is briefly optically signaled in the display field of the activated call registration and display device. Inattentive waiting passengers or, for example, waiting passengers in conversation, can overlook the display or forget it if the display was only briefly perceived. If another elevator is used that moves in the same direction, there is a high probability that the desired destination floor will not be reached. Since the display has to act for a longer time, for example one to two seconds, the performance of the call registration and display devices can be greatly reduced if a larger number of passengers use the display.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a call registration and display device of the type mentioned, in which the perception of the display of the selected destination floor and the display of which elevator has been assigned is more secure, and in which the display process takes less time.
  • a printer and a ticket dispenser are provided, which are connected to the group control device via a control circuit. After the call has been entered and when the call has been allocated, the printer and the ticket issuing device are actuated, a ticket being issued, the print of which indicates the selected destination floor and the assigned elevator.
  • the advantages achieved by the invention can be seen in the fact that the passengers do not have to pay attention to visual displays when operating the keyboards of the registration and display devices, since they receive secure, permanent information with the ticket. This also eliminates the need to remember the number plate of the assigned elevator. Since the relatively long period of time of the optical display is eliminated, less time is required for a passenger to use a call registration and display device, so that the number of call registration and display devices on one floor can be reduced.
  • the shaft doors of three elevators A, B, C of an elevator group, which are arranged on one floor, are designated by 1. Between the shaft doors 1 are based below 2 - 5 call registration and display devices 2 described in more detail, by means of which calls can be entered for desired destination floors.
  • the call registration and display devices 2 have a 10-key keyboard 3 and a display field 4, in which at least the entered call and the assigned elevator are displayed.
  • the elevators A, B, C are assigned microcomputer systems 5, which are connected to one another via a comparison device 6 known from EP-B 0 050 304 and a serial data transmission device 7 known from EP-B 0 050 305 and together form a group control device, whereby the call registration and display devices 2 are connected to a serial bus 8 of the data transmission device 7.
  • the 10-key keyboard 3 of the call registration and display device 2 is connected to inputs of a first control circuit 10 which is connected on the output side to a first display element 11 for displaying the entered destination floor.
  • the first display element 11 consists of seven-segment displays and the first control circuit 10 essentially consists of coding circuits.
  • the 10-key keyboard 3 is followed by call memories 12, the outputs of which are connected via a further coding circuit 13 to parallel data inputs of a serial interface module 14 connected to the serial bus 8 (FIG. 1).
  • the serial interface module 14 is connected via parallel data outputs to a second control circuit 15, which is connected on the output side to a second, third and fourth display element 16, 17, 18.
  • the display elements 16, 17, 18 consist of light-emitting diodes arranged in a grid, by means of which the letters A, B, C can be formed when the second display element 16 is activated in accordance with the assigned elevator.
  • the third display element 17, an arrow pointing to the left and in the fourth display element 18 an arrow pointing to the right can be formed be (Fig. 3, 4).
  • the second control circuit 15 consisting of a coding circuit has five outputs.
  • Numbers 19 and 20 denote a printer and a ticket dispenser that are commercially available.
  • the printer 19 has a matrix, the crossing points of which correspond to the pixels of the printed image.
  • the matrix is connected to a third control circuit 21, which, as is known, consists of a character generator in the form of a ROM for driving the columns and an addressing device for driving the rows of the matrix.
  • the third control circuit 21 is connected to the parallel data outputs of the serial interface module 14.
  • the first, second, third and fourth display elements 11, 16, 17, 18 are arranged in the display field 4 of the call registration and display device 2.
  • the light-emitting diodes of a fifth display element 22 in the form of a double question mark for signaling an incorrect entry are placed between the light-emitting diodes of the first display element 11 (FIG. 5).
  • the fifth display element 22 can be activated, for example, as is known from the publication already mentioned above.
  • 23 is an output slot for the tickets.
  • the call registration and display device described above works as follows: When a call is entered for a specific destination floor using the 10-key keyboard 3, the first display element 11 is activated and the entered call is confirmed by the corresponding decimal number lighting up, the lighting duration being similar to that in EP-A 0 320 583 already mentioned by means of a delay circuit can be determined. At the same time, the call memory assigned to the desired destination floor is set. The address formed by the further coding circuit 13 and the addresses of the call input storey and the address, as not described further actuated call registration and display device 2 are fed to the serial interface module 14 and combined to form a data block which is sent via the serial bus 8 to the microcomputer systems 5 of the elevators A, B, C.
  • Each microcomputer system 5 now calculates a sum from the received and other elevator-specific data according to an algorithm, as has become known for example from EP-A 0 356 731.
  • the sums are compared by means of the comparison device 6 and the call pair input floor call / destination floor call is allocated to the elevator which has the smallest sum.
  • the microcomputer system 5 in question now sends, via the serial bus 8, to the activated call registration and display device 2 a data block which preferably contains the elevator identifier A, B or C and the destination floor number in ASCII code.
  • the data are fed via the serial interface module 14 to the third control circuit 21, the matrix being actuated, the printer 19 being actuated and a ticket having the desired destination floor number and the identification of the assigned elevator being issued.
  • the data which merely characterize the assigned elevator and its position relative to the activated call registration and display device 2 are fed to the second control circuit 15, the respective display elements 16 and 17 or 18 being activated via the assigned outputs of the second control circuit 15.
  • the lighting duration of the display elements 16 and 17 or 18, as well as of the first display element 11 signaling the destination floor number, can be limited to the time of the ticket issue.
  • the call registration and display device does not have any optical display elements, but is only equipped with the printer and the ticket issuing device. It is also possible to provide, in addition to or instead of the optical display elements, an acoustic device in the call registration and display device, by means of which the assigned elevator can be announced. It can also be beneficial be that, with the ticket, additional, additional information is provided in addition to the information about the selected destination floor and the assigned elevator.
