Automatic Destination Entry System With Override Capability

View page
US Patent:
7353915, Apr 8, 2008
Filed:
Sep 27, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/951094
Inventors:
Vlad Zaharia - Rocky Hill CT, US
Wade Montague - Southington CT, US
Richard Mangini - Brookfield CT, US
Gary Meguerdichian - Farmington CT, US
Paul Stranieri - Bristol CT, US
Assignee:
Otis Elevator Company - Farmington CT
International Classification:
B66B 1/16
US Classification:
187388, 187391, 187396
Abstract:
An elevator system () utilizes destination entry dispatching techniques. A controller () receives an automated destination request that includes a prestored, primary destination. This allows for seamlessly integrating building access and destination entry for the elevator system. A passenger interface () allows a passenger to override a prestored destination. The elevator controller () allows for override or secondary destination requests to be made at various intervals between receipt of the initial request and arrival of an initially assigned car at an appropriate level to let the passenger board the elevator car.

Elevator System Control Providing Specialized Service Features To Facilitate A Passenger Accessing An Assigned Elevator Car

View page
US Patent:
7882938, Feb 8, 2011
Filed:
Apr 12, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/910272
Inventors:
Barry Graham Blackaby - West Simsbury CT, US
Gary Meguerdichian - Farmington CT, US
Assignee:
Otis Elevator Company - Farmington CT
International Classification:
B66B 1/18
US Classification:
187388, 187384, 187391
Abstract:
An elevator system () includes a transceiver () that receives at least one wirelessly transmitted signal (). In one example, a signaling device () includes a plurality of switches () that can be activated to provide a signal indicating a desired or intended destination. The signal also provides an indication of the individual from whom the signal is received. A system controller () responds to the signal by assigning an elevator car () to travel to the intended destination. When the elevator car () is situated to receive the individual, in the event that another wireless signal is received, the system provides at least one access feature including delaying closing an elevator car door or generating an audible sound to guide the individual to the car. In one example, the system maintains information regarding expected locations of individuals providing such signals to facilitate providing assistance to them for exiting a building, for example.

Elevator System Control Providing Specialized Service Features And Individual Location Information

US Patent:
8028809, Oct 4, 2011
Filed:
Dec 29, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/980561
Inventors:
Barry Graham Blackaby - West Simsbury CT, US
Gary Meguerdichian - Farmington CT, US
Assignee:
Otis Elevator Company - Farmington CT
International Classification:
B66B 1/34
US Classification:
187391, 187382

US Patent:
D3253554, Apr 14, 1992
Filed:
May 15, 1989
Appl. No.:
7/352211
Inventors:
Gary Meguerdichian - Farmington CT
Joseph Bittar - Avon CT
William Weirsman - Woodbridge CT
Assignee:

US Classification:
D10104

Backup Position Signaling In An Elevator

View page
US Patent:
46275185, Dec 9, 1986
Filed:
Apr 25, 1985
Appl. No.:
6/727313
Inventors:
Gary M. Meguerdichian - Waterbury CT
Isabel B. Hovey - Bristol CT
Assignee:
Otis Elevator Company - Farmington CT
International Classification:
B66B 302
US Classification:
187 29R
Abstract:
An elevator has a car position transducer that provides an output signal indicating car location. A car controller causes that signal to be stored in a memory. The controller compares the stored signal with a current transducer output and stores the current signal when the difference between the two exceeds a preset amount. A detector senses the elevator system power level and connects a backup power supply to the memory and the transducer when there is a power loss. A car motion detector senses the transducer output and removes the backup power from the transducer when the car stops moving.

Elevator Car And Riser Transfer

View page
US Patent:
52722872, Dec 21, 1993
Filed:
Mar 19, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/853678
Inventors:
Gary M. Meguerdichian - Farmington CT
Paul Stranieri - Bristol CT
David M. Hughes - New Britain CT
Bertram F. Kupersmith - Avon CT
Assignee:
Otis Elevator Company - Farmington CT
International Classification:
B66B 100
H04J 308
US Classification:
187100
Abstract:
The data processor (OCSS) 35 of an elevator car that can be transferred from a group 38 of elevators (a swing car) is switched out of a ring of similar data processors 31-34 into another ring of data processors 36, 37 which comprise a separate group 39 (FIG. 2 ). Or, the processor 35 can be swung from the group 38 into operation by itself in the simplex mode (FIGS. 3 and 4) when connected (66) to a separate hall call button and enunciator lantern riser 56.

US Patent:
46553240, Apr 7, 1987
Filed:
Sep 23, 1985
Appl. No.:
6/778833
Inventors:
Gary M. Meguerdichian - Waterbury CT
Robert E. Greenstien - Rocky Hill CT
Assignee:
Otis Elevator Company - Farmington CT
International Classification:
B66B 146
US Classification:
187121

Elevator commands, such as car calls, are entered through a wireless, hand-held transmitter. A command is received and registered as if it were directly entered on the car-operating panel. Transmission of some calls is delayed after the call is entered on the transmitter.

System And Method For Determining The Availability Of An Elevator Car For Response To Hall Calls

View page
US Patent:
54874513, Jan 30, 1996
Filed:
Jan 26, 1994
Appl. No.:
8/187669
Inventors:
David M. Hughes - New Britain CT
Gary Meguerdichian - Farmington CT
Assignee:
Otis Elevator Company - Farmington CT
International Classification:
B66B 300
US Classification:
187392
Abstract:
A system and method for determining the availability of an elevator car for response to hall calls includes a plurality of infrared sensors disposed to monitor the presence of an object within an elevator car. The cross-sectional area occupied by an object, or objects, within an elevator car is determined by the number of sensors generating output signals based upon reflections of transmitted radiation from such an object. The system monitors the cross-sectional area availability of the elevator car and categorizes the car as to its availability for responding to a hall call.
