Embodiment 1 FIG.
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an elevator call registration device according to the present invention.
In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 is a car that moves up and down in the elevator hoistway, 2 is an elevator landing where the car 1 stops, 3 is a call registration device provided in the car 1, and 4 is a call registration device provided in each landing 2. Reference numeral 5 denotes a control device that controls the operation of the entire elevator, such as travel control of the car 1. The call registration devices 3 and 4 are respectively connected to the control device 5 by a communication path 6.
 なお、呼び登録装置4は、かご1が停止する全ての乗場2に設置されていても良いし、1つ或いは複数の所定の乗場2のみに設置されていても良い。また、かご1に、呼び登録装置3が設置されている場合は、乗場2に、音声による呼び登録機能を備えた呼び登録装置4が設置されていなくても構わない。 Note that the call registration device 4 may be installed in all the halls 2 where the car 1 stops, or may be installed only in one or a plurality of predetermined halls 2. Further, when the call registration device 3 is installed in the car 1, the call registration device 4 having a voice call registration function may not be installed in the hall 2.
 呼び登録装置3は、エレベーターの乗客が、かご1内において、音声によって呼びの登録を行うためのものである。呼び登録装置3は、例えば、音声入力装置7、音声認識装置8、呼び制御部9、報知器10、音声出力装置11により、その要部が構成されている。 The call registration device 3 is for an elevator passenger to register a call by voice in the car 1. The call registration device 3 includes, for example, a voice input device 7, a voice recognition device 8, a call control unit 9, a notification device 10, and a voice output device 11.
 音声入力装置7は、かご1内の乗客が音声を入力するためのものであり、例えば、マイクロホン等によって構成される。即ち、かご1に乗車した後に音声による呼び登録を行いたい乗客は、自分の行先階等の音声情報を、この音声入力装置7から入力する。 The voice input device 7 is for a passenger in the car 1 to input voice, and is constituted by, for example, a microphone. That is, a passenger who wants to perform call registration by voice after boarding the car 1 inputs voice information such as his / her destination floor from the voice input device 7.
 音声認識装置8は、音声入力装置7から入力された音声信号に基づいて所定の音声認識処理を行い、その処理結果から乗客の行先階を特定する機能を有している。なお、音声認識装置8の音声認識機能は、如何なる方式によるものであっても構わない。例えば、音声認識装置8は、音声入力装置7から入力された音声信号の中に、既登録の音声信号と所定の条件で一致するものがあるか否かを識別し、一致するものが存在すれば、その登録音声信号に対応する行先階を乗客の行先階として特定する。
 この音声認識装置8の具体的な機能については後述する。
The voice recognition device 8 has a function of performing a predetermined voice recognition process based on the voice signal input from the voice input device 7 and specifying the passenger's destination floor from the processing result. Note that the voice recognition function of the voice recognition device 8 may be based on any method. For example, the voice recognition device 8 identifies whether or not a voice signal input from the voice input device 7 matches a registered voice signal under a predetermined condition. For example, the destination floor corresponding to the registered voice signal is specified as the destination floor of the passenger.
Specific functions of the voice recognition device 8 will be described later.
 呼び制御部9は、音声認識装置8によって特定された乗客の行先階に基づいて、呼びの登録を行う機能を有している。呼び制御部9は、音声認識装置8によって行先階が特定されると、その特定結果に対応する登録要求を制御装置5に対して出力し、制御装置5に呼びの登録を行わせる。そして、制御装置5では、呼びの登録を行うと、音声認識装置8によって特定された乗客の行先階に基づいて、適切な配車を行う。 The call control unit 9 has a function of registering a call based on the destination floor of the passenger specified by the voice recognition device 8. When the destination floor is identified by the voice recognition device 8, the call control unit 9 outputs a registration request corresponding to the identification result to the control device 5, and causes the control device 5 to register the call. And if the control apparatus 5 performs registration of a call, based on the passenger's destination floor specified by the voice recognition apparatus 8, it will perform appropriate vehicle allocation.
 報知器10は、音声や操作音を発声・発音するためのものであり、例えば、スピーカ等によって構成される。 The alarm 10 is for uttering / pronuncing voice and operation sound, and is composed of, for example, a speaker.
 音声出力装置11は、報知器10を制御し、かご1内の乗客に対して所定の音声案内を行う機能を有している。例えば、音声出力装置11には、音声情報が予め格納されており、音声出力装置11は、必要に応じて適切な音声情報を取り出すことにより、その内容を報知器10から報知させる。
 この音声出力装置11の具体的な機能については後述する。
The voice output device 11 has a function of controlling the alarm 10 and performing predetermined voice guidance for passengers in the car 1. For example, audio information is stored in advance in the audio output device 11, and the audio output device 11 extracts appropriate audio information as necessary, thereby notifying the content from the alarm device 10.
Specific functions of the audio output device 11 will be described later.
 なお、上記音声認識装置8は、マイコンやメモリ等によって構成することも可能である。また、マイコンにメモリを内蔵する構成であっても構わない。更に、音声入力装置7、呼び制御部9、音声出力装置11の全部或いは一部の機能をマイコンに内蔵しても構わない。かかる構成により、呼び登録装置3をより一般的な部品で構成でき、コストを低減させることができる。 Note that the voice recognition device 8 can be configured by a microcomputer, a memory, or the like. Further, the microcomputer may be configured to incorporate a memory. Further, all or some of the functions of the voice input device 7, the call control unit 9, and the voice output device 11 may be built in the microcomputer. With this configuration, the call registration device 3 can be configured with more general parts, and costs can be reduced.
 次に、図2及び図3も参照し、上記構成を有する呼び登録装置3の具体的な動作について説明する。図2及び図3は、この発明の実施の形態1におけるエレベーターの呼び登録装置の動作を示すフローチャートである。図2及び図3は、呼び登録装置3の一連の処理フローを示している。 Next, the specific operation of the call registration device 3 having the above configuration will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3 are flowcharts showing the operation of the elevator call registration device according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. 2 and 3 show a series of processing flows of the call registration device 3.
 呼び登録装置3では、通常時、音声入力装置7のスイッチがOFFに設定されること等により、音声認識装置8による音声認識の処理機能は停止されている。 In the call registration device 3, the speech recognition processing function by the speech recognition device 8 is stopped, for example, when the switch of the speech input device 7 is normally set to OFF.
 呼び登録装置3は、先ず、制御装置5等からエレベーターに関する状態情報を受信することにより、ドアが全開したか否かを判定する。かご1が乗客の待つ乗場2に停止し、ドアが全開したことを検出すると(S101)、呼び登録装置3は、音声出力装置11により、報知器10から所定の第一ガイダンスを報知させる(S102)。この時、音声出力装置11は、第一ガイダンスとして、例えば、「ピッ」といった所定の一定音からなる簡易な電子音を、報知器10から発音させる。 The call registration device 3 first determines whether or not the door is fully opened by receiving status information about the elevator from the control device 5 or the like. When the car 1 stops at the landing 2 where the passengers wait and detects that the door is fully opened (S101), the call registration device 3 causes the voice output device 11 to notify the predetermined first guidance (S102). ). At this time, the voice output device 11 causes the notification device 10 to generate a simple electronic sound including a predetermined constant sound such as “beep” as the first guidance.
 S102において第一ガイダンスの報知を行うと、呼び登録装置3は、次に、音声認識の処理機能を有効にし、音声認識装置8に音声認識処理を開始させる(S103)。
 具体的に、音声認識装置8は、音声認識処理を開始させると、先ず、音声入力装置7に対して音声が入力されたか否かを判定する(S104)。かご1に乗車した乗客が自分の行先階を発声することによって、音声入力装置7に音声が入力されると(S104のYes)、音声認識装置8は、入力された音声信号から乗客の行先階を認識する(S105)。そして、呼び制御部9は、音声認識装置8によって認識された行先階を制御装置5に対して通知する(S106)。
When the notification of the first guidance is performed in S102, the call registration device 3 then activates the speech recognition processing function and causes the speech recognition device 8 to start the speech recognition processing (S103).
Specifically, when starting the voice recognition process, the voice recognition device 8 first determines whether or not a voice is input to the voice input device 7 (S104). When a passenger in the car 1 speaks his / her destination floor and a voice is input to the voice input device 7 (Yes in S104), the voice recognition device 8 reads the passenger's destination floor from the input voice signal. Is recognized (S105). Then, the call control unit 9 notifies the control device 5 of the destination floor recognized by the voice recognition device 8 (S106).
 呼び登録装置3は、S106において制御装置5への通知を行うと、音声認識装置8による音声認識処理を一旦終了させる(S107)。また、呼び登録装置3は、音声認識処理を終了させた後、音声出力装置11によって、登録した階床名の報知を行う(S108)。例えば、音声出力装置11は、「○○階を登録しました」といった具体的な登録内容を、報知器10から発声させる。その後、呼び登録装置3は、S102の処理に戻る。 When the call registration device 3 notifies the control device 5 in S106, the call recognition device 8 temporarily ends the speech recognition processing (S107). In addition, after completing the voice recognition process, the call registration device 3 notifies the registered floor name by the voice output device 11 (S108). For example, the audio output device 11 causes the alarm device 10 to utter specific registration contents such as “Registered XX floor”. Thereafter, the call registration device 3 returns to the process of S102.
 一方、音声認識処理の開始後に音声入力装置7に対して音声が入力されない場合(S104のNo)、呼び登録装置3は、制御装置5等から入力されるエレベーターの状態情報に基づいて、戸閉予定の有無を判定する(S109)。なお、S109において戸閉予定が確認できなければ、呼び登録装置3は、S104の処理に戻って、音声入力待ちの状態となる。 On the other hand, when no voice is input to the voice input device 7 after the voice recognition process is started (No in S104), the call registration device 3 closes the door based on the elevator state information input from the control device 5 or the like. It is determined whether there is a plan (S109). If the door closing schedule cannot be confirmed in S109, the call registration device 3 returns to the process in S104 and waits for voice input.
 一方、S101においてドアが全開してから音声入力がないまま時間が経過し、所定時間内に戸閉動作が開始される状態になると(S109のYes)、呼び登録装置3は、戸閉動作が開始される前に、音声認識装置8による音声認識処理を終了させる(S110)。また、呼び登録装置3は、音声認識処理を終了させた後、音声出力装置11により、報知器10から所定の第二ガイダンスを報知させる(S111)。この時、音声出力装置11は、第二ガイダンスとして、例えば、「ピッピッ」といった所定の一定音の繰り返しからなる簡易な電子音を、報知器10から発音させる。 On the other hand, when a time elapses after the door is fully opened in S101 and the door closing operation is started within a predetermined time (Yes in S109), the call registration device 3 performs the door closing operation. Before starting, the voice recognition process by the voice recognition device 8 is terminated (S110). In addition, after completing the voice recognition process, the call registration device 3 causes the voice output device 11 to notify the predetermined second guidance from the alarm device 10 (S111). At this time, the audio output device 11 causes the alarm device 10 to generate a simple electronic sound consisting of repetition of a predetermined constant sound such as “beep” as the second guidance.
 また、音声認識処理の停止後にドアが全閉すると(S112)、呼び登録装置3は、S103において音声認識処理が開始されてからS110においてその処理が終了されるまでの間に、呼びの登録が行われたか否かを判定する(S113)。なお、上記期間内に呼び登録が行われた場合、即ち、S106において制御装置5に呼びの登録要求を出力した場合、呼び登録装置3は、処理を終了する。 When the door is fully closed after the speech recognition process is stopped (S112), the call registration device 3 registers the call between the time when the speech recognition process is started at S103 and the time when the process ends at S110. It is determined whether or not it has been performed (S113). When call registration is performed within the above period, that is, when a call registration request is output to the control device 5 in S106, the call registration device 3 ends the process.
 一方、上記期間内に呼びの登録が一つも行われていない場合(S113のNo)、呼び登録装置3は、音声出力装置11により、報知器10から所定の第三ガイダンスを報知させる(S114)。この時、音声出力装置11は、第三ガイダンスにおいて、上記第一ガイダンスや第二ガイダンスよりも詳細な内容を報知器10から報知させる。例えば、音声出力装置11は、第三ガイダンスとして、「ご利用階をお話しください」、「このエレベーターは音声認識を利用できます。例えば、「4階」等のように、ご利用階をお話しください」といった内容を報知器10から発声させる。 On the other hand, when no call registration has been performed within the above period (No in S113), the call registration device 3 causes the voice output device 11 to notify the predetermined third guidance (S114). . At this time, the voice output device 11 causes the notification device 10 to notify the detailed content in the third guidance more than the first guidance and the second guidance. For example, the voice output device 11 provides the third guidance as “Please tell us the floor”, “This elevator can use voice recognition. Is uttered from the alarm device 10.
 S114において第三ガイダンスの報知を行うと、呼び登録装置3は、音声認識装置8による音声認識処理を再開させ、音声入力の有無を判定する(S115、S116)。そして、かご1内の乗客が自分の行先階を発声することによって、音声入力装置7に音声が入力されると(S116のYes)、音声認識装置8は、入力された音声信号から乗客の行先階を認識し、その認識した行先階の通知を、呼び制御部9に行わせる(S117、S118)。 When the third guidance is notified in S114, the call registration device 3 restarts the voice recognition processing by the voice recognition device 8, and determines the presence or absence of voice input (S115, S116). Then, when a passenger in the car 1 speaks his / her destination floor and a voice is input to the voice input device 7 (Yes in S116), the voice recognition device 8 reads the passenger's destination from the input voice signal. The floor is recognized and the call control unit 9 is notified of the recognized destination floor (S117, S118).
 呼び登録装置3は、S118において制御装置5への通知を行うと、音声認識装置8による音声認識処理を終了させる(S119)。また、呼び登録装置3は、音声認識処理の終了後、音声出力装置11によって、登録した階床名の報知を行う(S120)。例えば、音声出力装置11は、「○○階を登録しました」といった具体的な登録内容を、報知器10から発声させる。その後、呼び登録装置3は、処理を終了する。 When the call registration device 3 notifies the control device 5 in S118, the call recognition device 8 ends the speech recognition processing (S119). In addition, the call registration device 3 notifies the registered floor name by the voice output device 11 after the voice recognition processing is completed (S120). For example, the audio output device 11 causes the alarm device 10 to utter specific registration contents such as “Registered XX floor”. Thereafter, the call registration device 3 ends the process.
 一方、S115において音声認識処理が再開された後も音声入力装置7に対する音声入力が行われない場合(S116のNo)、呼び登録装置3は、S115において音声認識処理が再開されてから所定の一定時間が経過したか否かを判定する(S121)。なお、S121において上記一定時間の経過が確認できなければ、呼び登録装置3は、S116の処理に戻って、音声入力待ちの状態となる。 On the other hand, when the voice input to the voice input device 7 is not performed even after the voice recognition process is resumed in S115 (No in S116), the call registration device 3 performs a predetermined constant after the voice recognition process is resumed in S115. It is determined whether time has passed (S121). If the elapse of the predetermined time cannot be confirmed in S121, the call registration device 3 returns to the process of S116 and waits for voice input.
 一方、S115において音声認識処理が再開された後、音声入力装置7に対する音声入力がないまま上記一定時間が経過すると(S121のYes)、呼び登録装置3は、音声認識装置8による音声認識処理を終了させる(S122)。また、呼び登録装置3は、音声認識処理を終了させた後、音声出力装置11により、報知器10から所定の第四ガイダンスを報知させる(S123)。この時、音声出力装置11は、第四ガイダンスとして、例えば、上記第二ガイダンスと同様に「ピッピッ」といった所定の一定音の繰り返しからなる簡易な電子音を、報知器10から発音させる。その後、呼び登録装置3は、処理を終了する。 On the other hand, after the voice recognition process is resumed in S115, when the predetermined time has passed without any voice input to the voice input device 7 (Yes in S121), the call registration device 3 performs the voice recognition process by the voice recognition device 8. End (S122). In addition, after completing the voice recognition processing, the call registration device 3 causes the voice output device 11 to notify a predetermined fourth guidance from the alarm device 10 (S123). At this time, the voice output device 11 causes the notification device 10 to generate a simple electronic sound consisting of repetition of a predetermined constant sound such as “beep” as the fourth guidance, as in the second guidance. Thereafter, the call registration device 3 ends the process.
 なお、S121においては、一定時間が経過したか否かの判定を行う替わりに、かご1の停止予定があるか、又は、報知器10からの報知予定があるか等の判定を行っても良い。かかる場合、呼び登録装置3は、その予定を確認すると、S122の処理に進む。即ち、呼び登録装置3は、かご1が次に乗場2に停止する前、或いは、次のガイダンスが報知器10から報知される前に、音声認識装置8による音声認識処理を終了させる。 In S121, instead of determining whether or not a certain time has elapsed, it may be determined whether the car 1 is scheduled to be stopped or whether the notification from the alarm device 10 is scheduled. . In such a case, when confirming the schedule, the call registration device 3 proceeds to the process of S122. That is, the call registration device 3 ends the speech recognition process by the speech recognition device 8 before the car 1 stops at the landing 2 next time or before the next guidance is notified from the notification device 10.
 この発明の実施の形態1によれば、かご1に設置された呼び登録装置3において、呼び登録に関する乗客への報知を、簡単且つ安価な構成によって適切に行うことができる。即ち、音声による呼び登録の可否を、報知器10からの各ガイダンスによって案内できるため、乗客は、そのガイダンスを聞いて、呼び登録を行うことができる時期(音声認識の開始時及び停止時)を適切に判断することが可能となる。 According to the first embodiment of the present invention, in the call registration device 3 installed in the car 1, it is possible to appropriately notify the passenger about call registration with a simple and inexpensive configuration. That is, since whether or not call registration by voice can be guided by each guidance from the alarm device 10, the passengers can hear the guidance and determine when the call registration can be performed (when voice recognition starts and stops). It is possible to make an appropriate judgment.
 また、第一、第二、第四ガイダンスを簡易な電子音等によって行うことにより、乗客に対して無用に長いガイダンスが提供されることもなく、煩わしさが低減される。慣れた乗客であれば、報知器10からの電子音を聞いてその意味を理解できるため、第一、第二、第四ガイダンスを簡易な電子音のみで構成しても特に問題になることはない。一方、ドアが全閉した際に呼びが一つも登録されていなければ、詳細な内容の第三ガイダンスがかご1内に報知される。このため、不慣れな乗客も、そのガイダンスを聞いて適切に呼び登録を行うことができる。 In addition, by performing the first, second, and fourth guidance with simple electronic sounds or the like, unnecessary long guidance is not provided to passengers, and annoyance is reduced. If you are an accustomed passenger, you can hear the electronic sound from the alarm 10 and understand its meaning. Therefore, even if the first, second, and fourth guidance are composed of simple electronic sounds, it is particularly problematic. Absent. On the other hand, if no call is registered when the door is fully closed, the third guidance with detailed contents is notified in the car 1. For this reason, even an unfamiliar passenger can listen to the guidance and perform call registration appropriately.
 なお、乗客がかご1に乗車した直後に呼び登録を行うことができる期間は、ドアが全開している間に限られている。第一及び第二ガイダンスにおいて詳細な内容を報知すると、乗客が音声によって呼びを登録することができる期間が短くなって利便性が低下する、或いは、乗場2におけるかご1の停止時間が長くなって運行効率が低下してしまう。第一及び第二ガイダンスを短い電子音のみによって構成することにより、このような問題も解消することが可能となる。 It should be noted that the period during which the call registration can be performed immediately after the passenger gets in the car 1 is limited while the door is fully open. When detailed contents are notified in the first and second guidance, the period during which the passenger can register a call by voice is shortened and convenience is reduced, or the stop time of the car 1 at the landing 2 is increased. Operation efficiency will decrease. Such a problem can be solved by configuring the first and second guidance only with a short electronic sound.
 更に、上記構成の呼び登録装置3では、ドアの開閉期間、及び、報知器10からの報知期間を避けて、音声認識処理が行われている。このため、報知器10からの報知やドアの開閉動作による騒音によって呼びが誤登録されてしまうことを、確実に防止することができる。 Furthermore, in the call registration device 3 configured as described above, the speech recognition process is performed while avoiding the door opening / closing period and the notification period from the notification device 10. For this reason, it can prevent reliably that a call will be misregistered by the noise by the alerting | reporting from the alerting device 10, or the opening / closing operation | movement of a door.
 なお、呼び登録装置3の上記機能は、例えば、乗客がかご1に単独乗車する際に利用される。このため、呼び登録装置3に、乗客が単独乗車したことを検出するための乗車検出装置(図示せず)を設置し、この乗車検出装置によって単独乗車が検出された場合のみ、図2及び図3に示す処理を実施しても良い。
 また、かご1内に、上記呼び登録装置3とともに、乗客が呼びを登録するための行先釦等を別途設置しても構わない。
In addition, the said function of the call registration apparatus 3 is utilized when a passenger gets on the car 1 alone, for example. Therefore, the call registration device 3 is provided with a boarding detection device (not shown) for detecting that the passenger has boarded alone, and only when the boarding detection device detects the single boarding, FIG. 2 and FIG. You may implement the process shown in 3. FIG.
Further, a destination button or the like for a passenger to register a call may be separately installed in the car 1 together with the call registration device 3.
実施の形態2.
 本実施の形態では、乗場2に設置された呼び登録装置4について具体的な説明を行う。なお、乗場2に行先呼びを登録することが可能な呼び登録装置4が設置されている場合は、かご1に、音声による呼び登録機能を備えた呼び登録装置3が設置されていなくても構わない。
Embodiment 2. FIG.
In the present embodiment, the call registration device 4 installed at the hall 2 will be specifically described. In addition, when the call registration device 4 capable of registering the destination call is installed in the hall 2, the call registration device 3 having a voice call registration function may not be installed in the car 1. Absent.
 呼び登録装置4は、エレベーターの乗客が、乗場2において、音声によって呼びの登録を行うためのものである。呼び登録装置4は、図1に詳細が示されているように、例えば、音声入力装置12、音声認識装置13、呼び制御部14、報知器15、音声出力装置16、人検出装置17により、その要部が構成される。
 なお、12乃至16に示す各装置等の基本的な機能は、呼び登録装置3に備えられた対応する各装置等7乃至11と同様であるため、その説明は省略し、具体的な機能についてのみ後述する。
The call registration device 4 is for an elevator passenger to register a call by voice at the hall 2.

 人検出装置17は、所定の検出範囲にいる人物を検出する機能を有している。具体的に、人検出装置17は、音声入力装置12から音声を入力しようとしている乗客を検出するために備えられたものであり、その検出範囲が、音声入力装置12近傍の所定の範囲に設定されている。例えば、人検出装置17は、音声入力装置12の前に人が所定時間継続して立っている場合に乗客の存在を検出する。なお、人検出装置17の検出方法は如何なる方式によるものであっても構わない。例えば、人検出装置17は、光や電波を所定の範囲に出射し、反射して戻ってきた光や電波を受信することによって乗客の有無を検出する。また、乗場2にカメラ(図示せず)を設置することにより、そのカメラ画像の解析を行うことによって乗客の有無を検出する。 The human detection device 17 has a function of detecting a person in a predetermined detection range. Specifically, the human detection device 17 is provided to detect a passenger who is going to input voice from the voice input device 12, and the detection range is set to a predetermined range near the voice input device 12. Has been. For example, the person detection device 17 detects the presence of a passenger when a person is standing in front of the voice input device 12 for a predetermined time. It should be noted that the detection method of the human detection device 17 may be any method. For example, the human detection device 17 detects the presence or absence of a passenger by emitting light or radio waves to a predetermined range and receiving the light or radio waves reflected and returned. Further, by installing a camera (not shown) at the hall 2, the presence or absence of a passenger is detected by analyzing the camera image.
 次に、図4及び図5も参照し、上記構成を有する呼び登録装置4の具体的な動作について説明する。図4及び図5は、この発明の実施の形態2におけるエレベーターの呼び登録装置の動作を示すフローチャートである。図4及び図5は、呼び登録装置4の一連の処理フローを示している。 Next, a specific operation of the call registration device 4 having the above configuration will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5 are flowcharts showing the operation of the elevator call registration device according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. 4 and 5 show a series of processing flows of the call registration device 4.
 呼び登録装置4では、通常時、音声入力装置12のスイッチがOFFに設定されること等により、音声認識装置13による音声認識の処理機能は停止されている。 In the call registration device 4, the voice recognition processing function by the voice recognition device 13 is stopped, for example, when the switch of the voice input device 12 is normally set to OFF.
 呼び登録装置4では、人検出装置17によって乗客の存在が検出されているか否かの判定を常時行っている(S201)。そして、乗客が、極短い所定の一定時間、音声入力装置12の前に立ち続けること等によって、人検出装置17が乗客の存在を検出すると(S201のYes)、呼び登録装置4は、音声出力装置16により、報知器15から所定の第一ガイダンスを報知させる(S202)。この時、音声出力装置16は、第一ガイダンスとして、例えば、「ピッ」といった所定の一定音からなる簡易な電子音を、報知器15から発音させる。 The call registration device 4 always determines whether or not the presence of a passenger is detected by the human detection device 17 (S201). When the human detection device 17 detects the presence of the passenger, for example, by the passenger standing in front of the voice input device 12 for a predetermined short time (Yes in S201), the call registration device 4 outputs the voice. The device 16 causes the alarm device 15 to notify a predetermined first guidance (S202). At this time, the voice output device 16 causes the notification device 15 to generate a simple electronic sound including a predetermined constant sound such as “beep” as the first guidance.
 S202において第一ガイダンスの報知を行うと、呼び登録装置4は、次に、音声認識の処理機能を有効にし、音声認識装置13に音声認識処理を開始させる(S203)。なお、S204乃至S208の各処理は、図2のS104乃至S108に示す各処理と同様である。呼び登録装置4は、S208において登録した階床名の報知を行うと、S201に戻る。 When the first guidance is notified in S202, the call registration device 4 next activates the speech recognition processing function and causes the speech recognition device 13 to start speech recognition processing (S203). Each process of S204 to S208 is the same as each process shown in S104 to S108 of FIG. The call registration device 4 returns to S201 when the floor name registered in S208 is notified.
 音声認識装置13による音声認識処理の開始後も音声入力装置12に対する音声入力が行われない場合(S204のNo)、呼び登録装置4は、音声認識処理が開始されてから所定の一定時間が経過したか否かを判定する(S209)。S209において上記一定時間の経過が確認できなければ、呼び登録装置4は、更に、人検出装置17によって乗客の存在が検出されているか否かを判定する(S210)。なお、S210において乗客の存在が継続して検出されていれば(S210のYes)、呼び登録装置4は、S204の処理に戻る。 If voice input to the voice input device 12 is not performed even after the voice recognition processing by the voice recognition device 13 is started (No in S204), the call registration device 4 passes a predetermined time after the voice recognition processing is started. It is determined whether or not (S209). If the elapse of the predetermined time cannot be confirmed in S209, the call registration device 4 further determines whether or not the presence of a passenger is detected by the human detection device 17 (S210). If the presence of a passenger is continuously detected in S210 (Yes in S210), the call registration device 4 returns to the process in S204.
 一方、S203において音声認識処理が開始されてから上記一定時間が経過しないうちに(S209のNo)、人検出装置17が乗客の存在を検出しなくなると(S210のNo)、呼び登録装置4は、音声認識装置13による音声認識処理を終了させる(S211)。また、呼び登録装置4は、音声認識処理を終了させた後、音声出力装置16により、報知器15から所定の第二ガイダンスを報知させる(S212)。この時、音声出力装置16は、第二ガイダンスとして、例えば、「ピッピッ」といった所定の一定音の繰り返しからなる簡易な電子音を、報知器15から発音させる。その後、呼び登録装置4は、S201の処理へと戻る。 On the other hand, if the human detection device 17 does not detect the presence of a passenger (No in S210) before the predetermined time has elapsed since the voice recognition process was started in S203 (No in S209), the call registration device 4 Then, the voice recognition process by the voice recognition device 13 is terminated (S211). In addition, after completing the voice recognition process, the call registration device 4 causes the voice output device 16 to notify the predetermined second guidance from the alarm device 15 (S212). At this time, the voice output device 16 causes the alarm device 15 to generate a simple electronic sound consisting of repetition of a predetermined constant sound such as “beep” as the second guidance. Thereafter, the call registration device 4 returns to the process of S201.
 また、S203において音声認識処理が開始されてから音声入力装置12に対する音声入力がないまま上記一定時間が経過すると(S209のYes)、呼び登録装置4は、音声認識装置13による音声認識処理を一旦終了させる(S213)。また、呼び登録装置4は、音声認識処理を一旦終了させた後、音声出力装置16により、報知器15から所定の第三ガイダンスを報知させる(S214)。この時、音声出力装置16は、第三ガイダンスにおいて、上記第一ガイダンスや第二ガイダンスよりも詳細な内容を報知器15から報知させる。例えば、音声出力装置16は、第三ガイダンスとして、「ご利用階をお話しください」、「このエレベーターは音声認識を利用できます。例えば、「4階」等のように、ご利用階をお話しください」といった内容を報知器15から発声させる。 In addition, when the predetermined time elapses without any voice input to the voice input device 12 after the voice recognition processing is started in S203 (Yes in S209), the call registration device 4 temporarily performs the voice recognition processing by the voice recognition device 13. Terminate (S213). The call registration device 4 once terminates the voice recognition process, and then causes the voice output device 16 to notify a predetermined third guidance from the alarm device 15 (S214). At this time, in the third guidance, the voice output device 16 causes the notification device 15 to notify the detailed contents than the first guidance and the second guidance. For example, the voice output device 16 can use the voice recognition as the third guidance, "Please tell us the floor you are using", "Please tell us the floor you are using, such as" 4th floor ". Is uttered from the alarm device 15.
 S214において第三ガイダンスの報知を行うと、呼び登録装置4は、音声認識装置13による音声認識処理を再開させ、音声入力の有無を判定する(S215、S216)。なお、S217乃至S220の各処理は、図3のS117乃至S120に示す各処理と同様である。呼び登録装置4は、S220において登録した階床名の報知を行うと、S201の処理に戻る。 When the third guidance is notified in S214, the call registration device 4 restarts the voice recognition processing by the voice recognition device 13 and determines the presence or absence of voice input (S215, S216). Note that the processes in S217 through S220 are the same as the processes shown in S117 through S120 in FIG. When the call registration device 4 reports the floor name registered in S220, the call registration device 4 returns to the process of S201.
 一方、S215において音声認識処理が再開された後も音声入力装置12に対する音声入力が行われない場合(S216のNo)、呼び登録装置4は、S215において音声認識処理が再開されてから所定の一定時間が経過したか否かを判定する(S221)。S221において上記一定時間の経過が確認できなければ、呼び登録装置4は、更に、人検出装置17によって乗客の存在が検出されているか否かを判定する(S222)。なお、S222において乗客の存在が継続して検出されていれば(S222のYes)、呼び登録装置4は、S216の処理に戻る。 On the other hand, when the voice input to the voice input device 12 is not performed even after the voice recognition process is resumed in S215 (No in S216), the call registration device 4 performs a predetermined constant after the voice recognition process is resumed in S215. It is determined whether time has passed (S221). If the elapse of the predetermined time cannot be confirmed in S221, the call registration device 4 further determines whether or not the presence of a passenger is detected by the human detection device 17 (S222). If the presence of a passenger is detected continuously in S222 (Yes in S222), the call registration device 4 returns to the process in S216.
 一方、S215において音声認識処理が再開された後、音声入力装置12に対する音声入力がなく、且つ、人検出装置17によって乗客の存在が検出され続けた状態のまま、上記一定時間が経過すると(S221のYes)、呼び登録装置4は、音声認識装置13による音声認識処理を終了させる(S223)。また、呼び登録装置4は、音声認識処理の再開後、上記一定時間が経過しないうちに、人検出装置17が乗客の存在を検出しなくなった場合(S222のNo)も、音声認識処理を終了させる(S223)。 On the other hand, after the voice recognition process is resumed in S215, when the predetermined time elapses while there is no voice input to the voice input device 12 and the presence of the passenger is continuously detected by the human detection device 17 (S221). Yes), the call registration device 4 ends the speech recognition processing by the speech recognition device 13 (S223). The call registration device 4 also ends the speech recognition processing when the human detection device 17 no longer detects the presence of a passenger before the predetermined time has elapsed after the restart of the speech recognition processing (No in S222). (S223).
 そして、呼び登録装置4は、S223において音声認識処理を終了させた後、音声出力装置16により、報知器15から所定の第四ガイダンスを報知させる(S224)。この時、音声出力装置16は、第四ガイダンスとして、例えば、上記第二ガイダンスと同様に「ピッピッ」といった所定の一定音の繰り返しからなる簡易な電子音を、報知器15から発音させる。その後、呼び登録装置4は、S201の処理に戻る。 Then, the call registration device 4 causes the voice output device 16 to notify the predetermined fourth guidance by the voice output device 16 after finishing the voice recognition process in S223 (S224). At this time, the voice output device 16 causes the notification device 15 to generate a simple electronic sound consisting of repetition of a predetermined constant sound such as “beep” as the fourth guidance, as in the second guidance. Thereafter, the call registration device 4 returns to the process of S201.
