Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an elevator control device having an additional function for the convenience of a user.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In recent years, various additional functions have been given to elevators in consideration of user convenience. For example, when a person is trapped in a car due to a disaster or failure such as an earthquake, the elevator maintenance company monitors it via a public line from the intercom in the car to quickly rescue the person in the car. There is a function that allows direct calls to the center. However, if it is always possible to make a call from the interphone, the service function of the maintenance company is lowered due to a mischievous call by the elevator user, so that the call can be made only when the elevator is broken or abnormal.
[0003]
In addition, when the elevator is in use, there is a function that keeps the door of the elevator open and moves the door so that it closes when the door close button in the car is operated in case of moving or loading a large amount of luggage. is there. When this function is required, we ask an operator of a maintenance company to change the elevator settings (install switches etc.).
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In the conventional elevator control devices as described above, the intercom call function is limited to the case where the elevator is broken or abnormal, so that building managers, residents, etc. may experience minor damage to the elevator. If you want to get in touch with you, you can't make a call, and you won't be able to use the special call function. In other words, if a function that allows continuous communication is opened to unspecified persons, the service will be lowered due to mischief or the like, so that there is a problem that it is generally not permitted.
[0005]
Also, if you need a function to keep the elevator door open, you need to ask the maintenance company to change the setting. In reality, you can force the door open by, for example, pinching luggage. There is a problem that there is a risk that the elevator may break down or the user may be caught in the door.
[0006]
The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and provides an elevator control device that can increase additional functions and improve user convenience without worrying about mischief. The purpose is to do.
[0007]
