DEVICE AND METHOD FOR GUIDING ELEVATOR CAR

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make a passenger, especially an elderly person having some trouble in sight and hearing, slowly and calmly get out of a car when he/she gets in the car in the opposite direction and operates a destination button in a direction opposite to the operating direction. SOLUTION: When the wrong operation of a destination button 5 in a direction opposite to the operating direction is detected in of a car 2, a red x-mark is blinked at the surface of the destination button 5 so that a passenger senses that he/she has made wrong operation. At the same time, the ineffectiveness of registration is expressed, for example, "This car goes in the opposite direction." in a space adjacent to the destination button. Further, a door is opened again, and announcement is performed to advice transfer. COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
