Abstract: An elevator control system includes an entrance person authentication section provided at a predetermined distance from an elevator hall for permitting a visitor to use an elevator and register a call of the elevator. A storage section stores a predetermined estimated move time value for the visitor to move from the entrance person authentication section to the hall. An arrival detection section detects the elevator arriving at the hall. A timer starts to count based on permission of the entrance person authentication section and sets an arrival time value when the arrival detection section detects the elevator arriving at the hall. A display notifies a passenger in a car or at the hall of a presence of the visitor. If the arrival time value is shorter than the estimated move time value, the display is activated.

Abstract: In an elevator system, a group supervisory control apparatus selects a car responding to a destination call registration performed on a landing destination operating panel. A limit value of the number of destination call registrations for stop floors existing in the same direction from the same stop floor is set in the group supervisory control apparatus in a manner corresponding to the stop floor. The group supervisory control apparatus counts the number of destination call registrations for the stop floors existing in the same direction from the same stop floor in response to the destination call registration performed on the landing destination operating panel, and limits the number of destination call registrations to be allocated to the single car according to a limit value corresponding to the stop floor.

Abstract: When a long-period-earthquake occurs, an elevator is controlled to ensure that an abnormality is positively judged and that the elevator can be safely and promptly returned to a normal operation. For this purpose, by providing a usual seismic sensor and a long-period seismic sensor that detects long-period components of the shakes of a building, which are not detected by the usual seismic sensor, at two stages, an earthquake emergency return operation is performed when the seismic sensor has gone into action and when a first level has been detected by the long-period seismic sensor, a long-period-earthquake emergency return operation, which involves giving a notice to outside the elevator and inside a car, is performed.

In the bonded structure of two members, an external thread provided at a substantially cylindrical end portion of a resin member is screwed into an internal thread provided at a substantially cylindrical end portion of a resin member and irradiated with laser to bond the end portions of the resin members to each other by the laser welding. In the gas container, this bonded structure is applied to a resin liner of the gas container, and liner constituting members are screwed and bonded by the laser welding.

Abstract: Supervisory control of an elevating machine is performed in a remote supervisory center via a general public line. The general public line has multiple networks including a high-speed digital network for transmitting large quantities of information from the elevating machine to the center and a low-communication-cost public network for transmitting a control command from the center to the elevating machine. A network selector selects the high-speed digital network in the case of transmission of a large quantity of information and the low-communication-cost public network in the case of transmission of the control command, and causes the selected network to perform transmission. For security, the control encodes and decodes transmitted information individually for each of the networks, and performs collation and authentication of a specific code, which has been added to the control command at the center, at the elevating machine.
