  • Patent number: 8646581
    Abstract: An elevator group management system capable of appropriately performing car assignment processing without leaving any one behind and enabling a passenger to recognize a car to board without fail. A fellow passenger group assignment section assigns fellow passenger groups to respective passengers based on the contents of hall call registration for each floor received from a hall operation panel, and causes the hall operation panel that has sent the hall call registration to display names of the assigned fellow passenger. A fellow passenger group car assignment section executes, on the fellow passenger groups assigned by the fellow passenger group assignment section, car assignment processing of assigning any of a plurality of cars as an assigned car and, in a case of determining the assigned car, provides car control sections with a passenger guide command containing at least combination information on this assigned car that has been determined and the fellow passenger group.

  • Patent number: 8602172
    Abstract: A car-based running power computing mechanism computes running power values of each car in both cases including cases before and after a newly generated hall call is assigned. A car-based regenerative power computing mechanism computes regenerative power values of each car in the both cases. A car-based future running power computing mechanism computes future running power values of each car in the both cases. A car-based future regenerative power computing mechanism computes future regenerative power values of each car in the both cases. A car-based assigned total evaluation index computing mechanism obtains an in-travel power consumption value and an in-future-travel power consumption value based on the running power values, regenerative power values, future running power values, future regenerative power values and the like, to thereby compute assigned total evaluation indices of each car in the both cases.

  • Patent number: 8567569
    Abstract: An elevator group management system improving operational efficiency in consideration of a situation change that has occurred after a destination floor registration in a hall. An assigned car review mechanism executes assigned car review processing in units of review registration information sets each including at least one piece of provisionally assigned car registration information managed by a registered destination floor hall call management section during a review period. After ending the assigned car review processing, the assigned car review mechanism modifies the contents of the provisionally assigned car registration information in the registered destination floor hall call management section based on the contents of the review registration information set after modification. That is, the assigned car review mechanism newly registers the provisionally assigned car registration information after review and erases the provisionally assigned car registration information before review at the same time.
