2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, large-scale and high-rise buildings have been developed.
In order to improve the transportation capacity, a double deck elevator has been proposed. This double deck elevator
Two cabs normally connected in one hoistway are run simultaneously, and if the car interval is properly determined, different floors can be serviced at the same time, so the transport capacity can be greatly increased. Things.

A drive unit 13 includes, for example, a motor 14 and a jack 15, and the jack 15 allows the lower car 2 to move up and down. Therefore, when the lower car 2 rises, the upper car 1 descends at the same speed (and vice versa), so that the distance between the upper car 1 and the lower car 2 can be freely adjusted.

In the double deck elevator having such a mechanism, depending on the length of the car frame 10, the lower car 2 is on the first floor,
The upper car 1 can simultaneously service a discontinuous floor such as the third floor, and can perform a wider double deck operation. In addition, recently, there is an example in which the ceiling of the first floor, which is a standard floor, is particularly high, and it may take time to adjust the interval between the upper and lower cars.

In such a double-deck elevator, the distance between the upper and lower cars is always accurately grasped and the necessary adjustment of the distance between the upper and lower cars is completed before landing on the destination floor. It is desirable to keep. However, the destination floor (the next stop floor) depends on the call registration situation that changes every moment.
Therefore, special measures and countermeasures are required for adjusting the car interval.

[0016] Since elevator hall calls on the floor occur at any time, a situation in which it is necessary to stop on a floor different from the floor expected to be stopped at the time of departure can naturally occur. It is desirable to start from the point when the stop floor is determined, that is, when it is known that the car frame will not stop on the floor in front of the floor to be stopped even if the car frame decelerates immediately, so that unnecessary cage interval adjustment is not necessary. But, of course, this adjustment takes time. Then, the adjustment may not be completed during traveling because of the balance with the time required for the elevator to travel to the next floor to be stopped.

As an operation according to the present invention, when a new call is input as shown in FIG. 6, first, the movement time of the car frame 10 (scheduled speed, The travel time is predicted in advance by calculation from the acceleration and the target distance), and the time required for adjustment from the current state of the upper car 1 and the lower car 2 to the floor interval of the floor of the call is compared. At that time, if the travel time of the moka frame 10 is longer, the car interval can be adjusted during traveling, so that the call is registered. That is, the elevator can actually respond to the call.

On the other hand, if the car interval adjustment time is longer, the call is not registered in principle. However, for example, the car interval adjustment time is longer as in the first floor operation, and in some cases, the second floor operation. If it is long from the beginning, the car frame moving speed is determined so that the car frame moving time is equal to or longer than the car interval adjusting time, and the call is registered.
And other calls are not registered.

Next, in a situation where call registration exists, FIG.
As shown in (1), in step 1, a determination procedure that largely separates into the A route and the B route is performed. That is, the route A is a case where the next stop floor is determined (car frame 1
0 indicates that the vehicle cannot stop immediately before the scheduled stop floor even if the vehicle decelerates immediately), and the route B is a case where the next stop floor is not determined. In addition, Route A is Step 2
In divided into A 1 root and A 2 routes, B route also divided into B 1 route and B 2 route and B 3 route in Step 3 and Step 4.

In any case, start adjusting the car interval immediately.
However, for example, in step 2, ATwoDivide into routes
Like the first floor operation, the car interval adjustment operation is performed at the same time as the operation.

So that the travel time of the car is longer than the car interval adjustment time

Next, if the next stop floor passes through the route B for which the next stop floor has not yet been determined in step 1, the car interval adjustment time and the car frame movement time for the next stop floor are determined in step 3. It makes a comparison between, if there is room in the cage interval adjustment time, and to accommodate the call new as B 1 route, also compared cage distance adjusting time again shifts to step 4 if the car frame moving time or more was carried out, to start the cage interval adjustment through B 3 routes was equal.

On the other hand, depending on the condition of the building, for example, even if the operation is on the second floor, even if the car interval is adjusted simultaneously with the start of the operation, there are cases where it takes more time than moving the car frame. stop floor has not been determined (in 1 floor operation to become ready to cope) would pass through the B 2 routes. That is, as in the case of A 2 route, the car frame moving time car frame rate from the beginning dropped so that the above time adjustment cage interval, thus starting the cage distance adjusting operation.

Here, the actual car interval adjusting operation will be described with reference to FIG. First, when the floor to be actually landed is determined, the inter-floor distance of the stop floor is read from the memory and compared with the current (departure time) distance between the upper and lower cars. Alternatively, if the next stop floor has not been determined, the inter-floor distance of the next planned stop floor is read from the memory,

If there is a match, nothing is performed and the vehicle is landed on the destination floor (for example, the upper car 1 in FIG. 5 has the (n + 1) th floor and the lower car 2 has the nth floor). And the motor 14 drives the jack 15 in the required direction. That is, if the current state is narrow, the jack 15 is lowered, and if the current state is wide, the jack 15 is raised.
