System and method for controlling a plurality of elevator cars in an elevator shaft

摘要

A system and method for controlling a plurality of elevator cars in a building elevator shaft has at least one elevator shaft and at least one sensor, each zone having a plurality of zones representing at least one floor of the building. At least one zone, at least two elevator cars movable within the shaft, each car being independently movable, and a controller for determining movement of each car to the zone. Until the first car preceding any other car is designated as a leading car, each car following the leading car is designated as a tracking car, and each car reaches the designated final zone of each car, Each car is movable in the same direction of travel to provide transport to the zone, and after the sensor in the zone detects that a car located in the zone has left the zone, the controller Collisions are prevented only by commanding the sensor to move to the zone.
