Specifically, the control unit controls movement of the cars K1 to K4 in the hoistways A and B, controls the opening and closing of the doors 72, and provides guidance to passengers through the hall notification unit 53 and speakers in the car. Guidance control is performed.
移動制御は、昇降路Ａ，Ｂ内におけるかごＫ１～Ｋ４の移動に関する制御である。具体的に、移動制御では、駆動手段６を制御して、かごＫ１～Ｋ４を昇降路Ａ，Ｂ内において上下に移動させる。本実施形態の移動制御では、乗継同期制御と到着同期制御とを行う。本実施形態の移動制御では、後述する開閉制御において、すべてかごＫ１～Ｋ４の扉７２が閉じたことを確認してからかごＫ１～Ｋ４を移動させる。 The movement control is control related to movement of the cars K1 to K4 within the hoistways A and B. As shown in FIG. Specifically, in the movement control, the driving means 6 is controlled to move the cars K1 to K4 up and down within the hoistways A and B. As shown in FIG. In the movement control of this embodiment, transit synchronization control and arrival synchronization control are performed. In the movement control of this embodiment, in the opening/closing control described later, after confirming that the doors 72 of all the cars K1 to K4 are closed, the cars K1 to K4 are moved.
乗継同期制御は、中階乗場３に上側かご７Ｕと下側かご７Ｄが到着するタイミングを同期する制御である。具体的に乗継同期制御は、上方に設けられる駆動手段６と下方に設けられる駆動手段６を制御して、一対の上側かご７Ｕの一方（かごＫ１）と下側かご７Ｄの一方（かごＫ４）が中階乗場３に到着するタイミングを同期し、かつ、一対の上側かご７Ｕの他方（かごＫ３）と下側かご７Ｄの他方（かごＫ２）が中階乗場３に到着するタイミングを同期する制御である。即ち、乗継同期制御では、上方に設けられる駆動手段６と下方に設けられる駆動手段６が各かごＫ１～Ｋ４を移動させる時期及び移動させる速度を制御して、上階乗場２から中階乗場３に移動するかご（上側かご７Ｕ）と下階乗場４から中階乗場３に移動するかご（下側かご７Ｄ）が中階乗場３に到着するタイミングを同期させる。ここで、乗継同期制御における到着するタイミングが同期するとは、到着するタイミングが完全に一致する場合に限らず、乗継に影響のない程度だけずれて到着する場合を含み、具体的には、一方のかご（例えばかごＫ１）から降車した乗客等が、中階乗場３で待つことなく速やかに他方のかご（例えばかごＫ４）に乗車できるような関係を指し、本実施形態では一方のかご（例えばかごＫ１）が中階乗場３に到着して扉７２が開く動作が完了するまでの間に他方のかご（例えばかごＫ４）が中階乗場３に到着する。本実施形態の乗継同期制御では、上階乗場２から中階乗場３までの距離と下階乗場４から中階乗場３までの距離が略同じなので、上階乗場２のかご（例えばかごＫ３）が中階乗場３に移動し始めるタイミングと下階乗場４のかご（例えばかごＫ２）が中階乗場３に移動し始めるタイミングを同期させ、かつ、両かご（例えばかごＫ２とかごＫ３）を略同じ速度で移動させることで、両かごの中階への到着するタイミングを同期させる。なお、上階乗場２から中階乗場３までの距離と下階乗場４から中階乗場３までの距離が異なる場合には、両かごが移動し始めるタイミングや速度を調整することで中階乗場３に到着するタイミングを同期させることができる。 The transit synchronization control is a control for synchronizing the arrival timings of the upper car 7U and the lower car 7D at the middle floor hall 3 . Specifically, the connection synchronization control controls the driving means 6 provided above and the driving means 6 provided below to operate one of the pair of upper cars 7U (car K1) and one of the lower cars 7D (car K4). ) arrive at the middle-floor landing 3, and the timing of arrival at the middle-floor landing 3 of the other of the pair of upper cars 7U (car K3) and the other of the lower cars 7D (car K2) is synchronized. Control. That is, in the transit synchronous control, the driving means 6 provided above and the driving means 6 provided below control the timing and speed of movement of each of the cars K1 to K4, thereby transferring from the upper floor landing 2 to the middle floor landing. A car (upper car 7U) moving to 3 and a car (lower car 7D) moving from a lower floor landing 4 to a middle floor landing 3 arrive at the middle floor landing 3 in synchronization. Here, synchronizing the arrival timings in the transit synchronization control is not limited to the case where the arrival timings completely match, but also includes the case where the arrival timings are shifted to the extent that there is no influence on the transit. Refers to a relationship in which passengers who get off from one car (for example, car K1) can quickly board the other car (for example, car K4) without waiting at the middle floor platform 3. For example, the other car (for example, car K4) arrives at the middle-floor hall 3 after the car K1) arrives at the middle-floor hall 3 until the opening of the door 72 is completed. In the transit synchronization control of this embodiment, since the distance from the upper floor landing 2 to the middle floor landing 3 is substantially the same as the distance from the lower floor landing 4 to the middle floor landing 3, a car (for example, a car K3) in the upper floor landing ) start moving to the middle floor hall 3 and the timing when the car (for example, car K2) of the lower floor hall 4 starts moving to the middle floor hall 3, and both cars (for example, cars K2 and K3) are synchronized. By moving at substantially the same speed, the timing of arrival at the middle floor of both cars is synchronized. If the distance from the upper floor landing 2 to the middle floor landing 3 is different from the distance from the lower floor landing 4 to the middle floor landing 3, the timing and speed at which both cars start moving can be adjusted. 3 can be synchronized.
到着同期制御は、一対の上側かご７Ｕの一方（かごＫ１）が中階乗場３及び上階乗場２の一方に到着するタイミングと一対の上側かご７Ｕの他方（かごＫ３）が中階乗場３及び上階乗場２の他方に到着するタイミングを同期し、かつ、一対の下側かご７Ｄの一方（かごＫ４）が中階乗場３及び下階乗場４の一方に到着するタイミングと一対の下側かご７Ｄの他方（かごＫ２）が中階乗場３及び下階乗場４の他方に到着するタイミングを同期する制御である。即ち、到着同期制御では、各駆動手段６を制御して、一対の上側かご７Ｕが各乗場２～４に到着するタイミング及び一対の下側かご７Ｄが各乗場２～４に到着するタイミングを同期させる。ここで、到着同期制御における到着するタイミングの同期とは、一方のかご（例えばかごＫ２）が一方の乗場（例えば下階乗場４）に到着して停止している間に、他方のかご（例えばかごＫ４）が他方の乗場（例えば中階乗場３）に到着する関係を指し、本実施形態では、到着するタイミングが略一致する。本実施形態で、一対の上側かご７Ｕは一方が上昇する際に他方が同期して下降するように駆動手段６に連結され、一対の下側かご７Ｄは、一方が上昇する際に他方が同期して下降するように構成されているので、１つの駆動手段６を制御して駆動させることで一対の上側かご７Ｕ又は下側かご７Ｄの移動を同期させることができ、到着タイミングが同期させることができる。 The arrival synchronization control is based on the timing at which one of the pair of upper cars 7U (car K1) arrives at one of the middle floor halls 3 and 2, and the timing at which the other of the pair of upper cars 7U (car K3) arrives at the middle floor halls 3 and 2. The timing of arrival at the other of the upper floor hall 2 is synchronized, and the timing of arrival of one of the pair of lower cars 7D (car K4) at either the middle floor hall 3 or the lower floor hall 4 and the pair of lower cars. This is a control for synchronizing the timing when the other of 7D (car K2) arrives at the other of the middle-floor hall 3 and the lower-floor hall 4 . That is, in the arrival synchronization control, each driving means 6 is controlled to synchronize the arrival timing of the pair of upper cars 7U at the respective halls 2 to 4 and the timing of the arrival of the pair of lower cars 7D at the respective halls 2 to 4. Let Here, the synchronization of arrival timing in arrival synchronization control means that while one car (for example, car K2) arrives at one hall (for example, lower floor hall 4) and stops, the other car (for example, It refers to the relationship in which the car K4) arrives at the other landing (for example, the middle floor landing 3), and in this embodiment, the arrival timings are substantially the same. In this embodiment, the pair of upper cars 7U are connected to the driving means 6 so that when one ascends, the other descends synchronously, and the pair of lower cars 7D, when one ascends, the other descends synchronously. Therefore, by controlling and driving one drive means 6, the movement of the pair of upper car 7U or lower car 7D can be synchronized, and the arrival timing can be synchronized. can be done.
また、本実施形態における移動制御では、同じ昇降路Ａ，Ｂ内を移動するかごＫ１～Ｋ４が、同時に同じ方向に移動するように制御される。具体的には、一方の昇降路Ａ内を移動する一対の上側かご７Ｕの一方のかごＫ１と一対の下側かご７Ｄの他方のかごＫ２が同じ方向に移動し、他方の昇降路Ｂ内を移動する一対の上側かご７Ｕの他方のかごＫ３と一対の下側かご７Ｄの一方のかごＫ４が同じ方向に移動するように駆動手段６が制御される。このように、同じ昇降路Ａ，Ｂ内のかごＫ１～Ｋ４が同じ方向に移動するように制御されるので、複数のかごＫ１～Ｋ４が同じ昇降路Ａ，Ｂ内を移動したとしてもかごＫ１～Ｋ４同士の衝突を抑制できる。 Further, in the movement control in this embodiment, the cars K1 to K4 moving in the same hoistways A and B are controlled to move in the same direction at the same time. Specifically, one car K1 of the pair of upper cars 7U moving in one hoistway A and the other car K2 of the pair of lower cars 7D move in the same direction and move in the other hoistway B. The driving means 6 is controlled so that the other cage K3 of the pair of moving upper cages 7U and the cage K4 of one of the pair of lower cages 7D move in the same direction. In this way, the cars K1 to K4 in the same hoistway A, B are controlled to move in the same direction. ~ Collision between K4 can be suppressed.

以上のような構成の昇降機システム１における乗客等の乗降について図６を参照して説明する。図６に実線の矢印で示すように、下階乗場４から上階乗場２に移動しようとする乗客等は、下階乗場４の上行乗降部５１１からかごに乗り込み、中階乗場３の上行乗降部５１１で乗り継いで、上階乗場２の上行乗降部５１１（降車専用の乗降部５１）に到着する。ここで、乗客等は、下階乗場４においては、乗車位置表示部５３２の案内に従って、一方の昇降路Ａの下側かご７Ｄに乗車し、中階乗場３では、一方の昇降路Ａの下側かご７Ｄから降車して、乗継案内部５３３の案内に従って他方の昇降路Ｂの上側かご７Ｕに乗り継ぐことで、上階乗場２に到着する。 Passenger boarding and alighting in the elevator system 1 configured as described above will be described with reference to FIG. 6 . As indicated by solid arrows in FIG. 6, passengers and the like who want to move from the lower-floor landing 4 to the upper-floor landing 2 get into the car from the ascending boarding/alighting section 511 of the lower-floor boarding hall 4, and enter the ascending boarding/alighting of the middle-floor boarding hall 3. After transferring at the section 511, the passenger arrives at the ascending boarding/alighting section 511 (the boarding/alighting section 51 dedicated to getting off) of the upper floor hall 2.例文帳に追加At the lower floor landing 4, the passengers board the lower car 7D of one of the hoistways A according to the guidance of the boarding position display unit 532. By getting off from the side car 7D and transferring to the upper car 7U of the other hoistway B according to the guidance of the transfer guide section 533, the passenger arrives at the upper landing 2. - 特許庁
図６に破線の矢印で示すように、上階乗場２から下階乗場４に移動しようとする乗客等は、上述の動きとは逆向きに移動する。即ち、乗客等は、上階乗場２の下行乗降部５１２からかごＫ１～Ｋ４に乗り込み、中階乗場３の下行乗降部５１２で乗り継いで、下階乗場４の下行乗降部５１２（降車専用の乗降部５１）に到着する。ここで、乗客等は、上階乗場２においては、乗車位置表示部５３２の案内に従って、一方の昇降路Ａの上側かご７Ｕに乗車し、中階乗場３では、一方の昇降路Ａの上側かご７Ｕから降車して、乗継案内部５３３の案内に従って他方の昇降路Ｂの下側かご７Ｄに乗り継ぐことで、上階乗場２に到着する。 As indicated by dashed arrows in FIG. 6, passengers and the like who are about to move from the upper floor hall 2 to the lower floor hall 4 move in the direction opposite to the movement described above. That is, passengers and the like board the cars K1 to K4 from the descending boarding/alighting section 512 of the upper floor boarding hall 2, transfer at the descending boarding/alighting section 512 of the middle floor boarding hall 3, and transfer to the descending boarding/alighting section 512 (dedicated boarding/alighting section 512) of the lower boarding hall 4. 51). At the upper floor landing 2, the passengers board the upper car 7U of the one hoistway A according to the guidance of the boarding position display unit 532, and at the middle floor landing 3, the upper car 7U of the one hoistway A. By getting off the car 7U and transferring to the lower car 7D of the other hoistway B according to the guidance of the transfer guide section 533, the passenger arrives at the upper floor hall 2. - 特許庁
ここで、一対の上側かご７Ｕと一対の下側かご７Ｄの乗車用扉７２１及び降車用扉７２２は互い違いに配置されている。そのため中階乗場３の上行乗降部５１１に対して、乗車用扉７２１及び降車用扉７２２が面した状態になるので、下側かご７Ｄから降車して上側かご７Ｕに乗り継ぐ際に、同じ上行乗降部５１１で乗車及び降車をすることができる。同様に、中階乗場３の下行乗降部５１２に対して、乗車用扉７２１及び降車用扉７２２が面した状態になるので、上側かご７Ｕから降車して下側かご７Ｄに乗り継ぐ際に、同じ下行乗降部５１２で乗車及び降車をすることができる。また、各乗場２～４において上行乗降部５１１と下行乗降部５１２は互い違いに配置され、かつ、各かごＫ１～Ｋ４には乗車用扉７２１と降車用扉７２２が対向するように配置されているので、かごＫ１～Ｋ４における乗降の方向を一方向にしつつ、乗継を円滑にすることができる。 Here, the boarding doors 721 and the exit doors 722 of the pair of upper car 7U and the pair of lower car 7D are alternately arranged. As a result, the boarding door 721 and the boarding door 722 face the ascending boarding/alighting section 511 of the middle-floor boarding hall 3, so when getting off from the lower car 7D and transferring to the upper car 7U, the same ascending boarding/alighting can be performed. At section 511, it is possible to get on and off the vehicle. Similarly, since the boarding door 721 and the getting-off door 722 face the descending boarding/alighting section 512 of the middle-floor boarding hall 3, when getting off from the upper car 7U and transferring to the lower car 7D, the same It is possible to get on and off at the descending boarding/alighting section 512 . In each of the halls 2 to 4, the ascending boarding/alighting section 511 and the descending boarding/alighting section 512 are arranged alternately, and the cars K1 to K4 are arranged so that the boarding door 721 and the boarding door 722 face each other. Therefore, it is possible to make the connection smooth while making the boarding/alighting directions in the cars K1 to K4 one-way.
以上のような構成の昇降機システム１によれば、乗継同期制御によって中階乗場３における乗継ぎでの待ち時間が長くなることを抑制しつつ、到着同期制御によって、一方のかごが中階乗場３に到着した際に他方のかごが上階乗場２又は下階乗場４に到着するので、上階乗場２及び下階乗場４での待ち時間が長くなることを抑制できる。よって、乗客等がかごＫ１～Ｋ４の到着を待つ時間が長くなることを抑制できる。 According to the elevator system 1 configured as described above, while suppressing an increase in the waiting time for a transfer at the middle-floor hall 3 by means of the synchronous control, arrival synchronous control allows one car to move to the middle-floor hall. 3, the other car arrives at the upper floor landing 2 or the lower floor landing 4, so that the waiting time at the upper floor landing 2 and the lower floor landing 4 can be suppressed. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the passengers from waiting for the arrival of the cars K1 to K4 for a long time.
以上、本発明の実施形態について一例を挙げて説明したが、本発明は前記実施形態に限定されるものではなく、本発明の要旨を逸脱しない範囲内において種々の変更を加えることができる。 Although the embodiment of the present invention has been described above by giving an example, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention.
例えば、上階、中階、下階はそれぞれ１階床分離れている場合に限定されず、例えば上階乗場２、中階乗場３及び下階乗場４が２階床分離れていてもよい。上階乗場２から中階乗場３までの距離が下階乗場４から中階乗場３までの距離より長かったり短かったりしてもよい。このような構成の場合には、上階乗場２から中階乗場３までの移動速度と下階乗場４から中階乗場３までの移動速度を別になるように構成できる。 For example, the upper floor, the middle floor, and the lower floor are not limited to being separated by one floor, and for example, the upper floor landing 2, middle floor landing 3, and lower floor landing 4 may be separated by two floors. . The distance from the upper-floor landing 2 to the middle-floor landing 3 may be longer or shorter than the distance from the lower-floor landing 4 to the middle-floor landing 3. In such a configuration, the moving speed from the upper floor landing 2 to the middle floor landing 3 and the moving speed from the lower floor landing 4 to the middle floor landing 3 can be different.
また、１台の巻上機６２に一対の上側かご７Ｕ又は下側かご７Ｄの２台のかごが連結される場合について説明したが、このような構成に限らず、１台の巻上機６２に１台のかごと釣合い重りが設けられる構成とし、２台の巻上機６２と２台のかごの組み合わせで一対の上側かご７Ｕ又は下側かご７Ｄを構成することもできる。また、図７に示すように、１台の巻上機６２に３台以上（例えば４台）のかごが連結される構成とすることもできる。また、駆動手段６が巻上機６２を備える構成に限らず、例えば、各かごに設けられる構成とすることもでき、例えば各かご及び昇降路に設けられるリニアモータを駆動手段６として構成することもできる。 Also, the case where two cars, ie, a pair of upper car 7U or lower car 7D, is connected to one hoisting machine 62 has been described, but the structure is not limited to such a structure, and one hoisting machine 62 A pair of upper cage 7U or lower cage 7D can also be configured by combining two hoisting machines 62 and two cages. Further, as shown in FIG. 7, a configuration in which three or more (for example, four) cars are connected to one hoisting machine 62 may be employed. Further, the driving means 6 is not limited to the configuration in which the winding machine 62 is provided. For example, it may be configured to be provided in each car. can also
さらに、各かごＫ１～Ｋ４には扉７２が複数（乗車用扉７２１及び降車用扉７２２）設けられる場合について説明したが、このような構成に限らず、各かごＫ１～Ｋ４に扉７２が１つのみ設けられる構成とすることもできる。このような構成の場合には、各乗場２～４に設けられる乗降部５１も１つにすることができる。 Furthermore, although the case where each of the cars K1 to K4 is provided with a plurality of doors 72 (door 721 for boarding and door 722 for getting off) has been described, the configuration is not limited to this, and each car K1 to K4 has one door 72. A configuration in which only one is provided is also possible. In the case of such a configuration, only one boarding/alighting section 51 can be provided for each of the halls 2-4.
また、本実施形態の昇降機システム１を上下方向に複数設けることで、上階からさらに上の階床又は下階からさらに下の階床に移動可能な構成とすることもできる。例えば、図８に示すように、２つの昇降路Ａ，Ｂを備え、各昇降路Ａ，Ｂ内をそれぞれ３台（つまり、合計６台）のかごＫ１～Ｋ６が移動するように構成し、上下方向における中央のかご（Ｋ２及びＫ５）が上方の昇降機システム１における下側かご７Ｄと下方の昇降機システム１における上側かご７Ｕとを兼ね、最も上の階及び最も下の階以外の階が上階又は下階と中階を兼ねるように構成することもできる。 Further, by providing a plurality of the elevator systems 1 of the present embodiment in the vertical direction, it is possible to have a configuration in which movement from an upper floor to a further higher floor or from a lower floor to a further lower floor is possible. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, two hoistways A and B are provided, and three (that is, six in total) cars K1 to K6 move in each hoistway A and B, The center car (K2 and K5) in the vertical direction serves as the lower car 7D in the upper elevator system 1 and the upper car 7U in the lower elevator system 1, and the floors other than the highest floor and the lowest floor are up. It can also be configured to serve as a floor or a lower floor and a middle floor.
さらに、１つの昇降路Ａ，Ｂ内を複数のかごＫ１～Ｋ４が移動する場合について説明したが、このような構成に限らず、１つの昇降路内を１台のかごのみが移動するように構成することもできる。例えば、図９に示すように、昇降路を４本設け、昇降路のうち２本を上側かご７Ｕが移動し、他の２本を下側かご７Ｄが移動するように構成し、且つ、各かごＫ１～Ｋ４の移動について制御部が到着同期制御及び乗継同期制御を実行するように構成することもできる。このような構成であっても、乗継同期制御によって中階乗場３における乗継ぎでの待ち時間が長くなることを抑制しつつ、到着同期制御によって、一方のかごが中階乗場３に到着した際に他方のかごが上階乗場２又は下階乗場４に到着するので、上階乗場２及び下階乗場４での待ち時間が長くなることを抑制できる。 Furthermore, although the case where a plurality of cars K1 to K4 move within one hoistway A, B has been described, the configuration is not limited to such a configuration, and only one car moves within one hoistway. Can also be configured. For example, as shown in FIG. 9, four hoistways are provided, two of which are moved by the upper car 7U and the other two are moved by the lower car 7D. It is also possible to configure the control unit to execute arrival synchronization control and connection synchronization control for movement of the cars K1 to K4. Even with such a configuration, one car arrives at the middle-floor hall 3 by the arrival synchronous control while suppressing the waiting time in the middle-floor hall 3 from becoming long by the transit synchronous control. Since the other car actually arrives at the upper floor landing 2 or the lower floor landing 4, it is possible to suppress the waiting time at the upper floor landing 2 and the lower floor landing 4 from becoming longer.
また、乗継案内部５３３は、乗場に設けられる場合について説明したが、このような構成に限らず、かごＫ１～Ｋ４内に設けるように構成することもできる。このような構成によれば、降車前に乗継すべきかごについての情報を報知できるので、乗客等がスムーズに乗継できるようになる。 Further, although the connection guide section 533 has been described as being provided at the landing, it is not limited to such a configuration, and can be configured to be provided within the cars K1 to K4. According to such a configuration, it is possible to notify the information about the car to be transferred before getting off, so that the passengers can smoothly transfer.
