When a self-driving vehicle as described above, a so-called unmanned vehicle, gets on or off an elevator, an elevator boarding completion signal, elevator exit permission (unmanned vehicle start permission) signal, etc. is exchanged between the unmanned vehicle in the elevator cage and the elevator. will be held. Furthermore, if there are multiple destination floors, it is also necessary to send and receive a destination floor instruction signal. In the conventional method, for example, as described in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 177882/1982, a transmitting/receiving means on the elevator side is embedded or attached to the floor or side surface of the elevator car, and the transmitting/receiving means is placed opposite to the transmitting/receiving means. The various signals described above were exchanged with a transmitting/receiving means attached to the unmanned vehicle. However, such a conventional method not only requires a signal transmission system for transmitting and receiving signals in the same way between the transmitting and receiving means in the elevator car that goes up and down and the elevator control panel on the ground side, but also requires a Since it is necessary to bury or attach the above-mentioned transmitting and receiving means to the elevator, the use of existing elevator equipment has the disadvantage of being extremely costly.

The transmitting/receiving means 14 and 15 of the unmanned vehicle 1 can also be applied to the exchange of control signals other than signals for getting on and off the elevator. For example, as shown in FIG. 7, if a compartment opening/closing door 36 that forms a temporary stopping place 35 for the unmanned vehicle 1 is installed between the elevator boarding section and the elevator boarding section, a signal is sent to command the opening/closing of the opening/closing door 36. Opening/closing completion signal of opening/closing door 36 (unmanned vehicle start command)
It is also possible to have the transmission/reception means 14, 15 perform the transfer. 37 is the compartment opening/closing door 3
6 is a signal transmission device disposed outside of the vehicle 6, which transmits the door opening/closing command signal and door opening/closing completion signal (unmanned vehicle start command) between the unmanned vehicle 1 stopped at the stop position C.
The method of getting on and off an elevator for an automatic driving vehicle according to the present invention can be carried out as described above, and its feature is that the automatic driving vehicle is provided with a transmitting/receiving means, and the transmission/reception means is provided in the automatic driving vehicle, rather than inside the elevator cage where the vehicle transfers. A ground-side signal transmission device capable of exchanging signals with the transmitting/receiving means of the vehicle transferred into the elevator cage is installed in the elevator hall, and when the vehicle completes getting into the elevator cage, the signal transmission device of the vehicle is The transmitter/receiver transmits at least an elevator boarding completion signal toward the elevator hall, and the elevator car is raised or lowered based on the reception of the elevator boarding completion signal by the ground side signal transmission device, so that the elevator car arrives at a predetermined floor. When it becomes possible for the vehicle to exit the vehicle, the signal transmission device in the elevator hall of the arrival floor transmits an elevator exit permission signal to the elevator cage, and this elevator exit permission signal is transmitted to the vehicle in the elevator cage. The vehicle is started and exited from the elevator based on the reception of the transmitting/receiving means.

According to the method of the present invention, all signals that need to be exchanged between the vehicle and the elevator control panel when the vehicle is located in the elevator cage are transmitted to the ground side signal transmission device. This can be carried out by air propagation between the signal and the vehicle inside the elevator car, and there is no need to provide transmitting and receiving means for transmitting and receiving signals on the floor and side surfaces of the elevator car as in the past. Therefore, there is no need to provide a signal transmission system for transmitting signals to and from the vehicle between the elevator car that goes up and down and the elevator control panel on the ground side.
Therefore, it is extremely simple and easy to incorporate an existing elevator into the travel route of an automatic vehicle, and it can be implemented economically.

1. A self-driving vehicle capable of automatically traveling on a set travel route and automatically stopping at a set stop position is provided with a transmitting/receiving means, and the transmission/reception means is provided in an elevator hall, not in an elevator cage where the vehicle transfers, and in an elevator cage. A ground-side signal transmission device capable of exchanging signals with the transmitting/receiving means of the transferred vehicle is provided, and when the vehicle completes entering the elevator cage, at least an elevator boarding completion signal is sent from the transmitting/receiving means of the vehicle. is transmitted toward the elevator hall, and the elevator cage is raised or lowered based on the ground-side signal transmission device receiving this elevator boarding completion signal, and the elevator cage arrives at a predetermined floor and the vehicle is in a state where it is possible to exit the vehicle. When this occurs, an elevator exit permission signal is transmitted from the signal transmission device in the elevator hall of the arrival floor toward the elevator cage, and the elevator exit permission signal is received by the transmitting/receiving means of the vehicle within the elevator cage. A method for getting on and off an elevator for an autonomous vehicle, characterized by starting and getting off the elevator from the elevator based on the following.
