A hoist elevator control system and a hoist elevator for a multi-story building structure on a building site, comprises an enclosure for raising and lowering personnel and materials. The control system comprises a sensor external to the enclosure, a sensor internal to the enclosure, a call button at each floor, and a processor located within the enclosure. The processor obtains data from the sensors and the call buttons and provides output to a display screen in the enclosure and to an external control location. The internal sensor may be a people counter that issues an alarm to prevent operation when the enclosure has more than a preset number of people within. The people counter may send the current number of people within to the processor for processing, and data may allow an operator to control the elevator, for example via a cloud connection and/or a telephone application.
A hoist elevator control system and a hoist elevator, the hoist elevator attached to a multi-story building structure of an incomplete building on a building site, the elevator comprising an enclosure for raising and lowering personnel and materials in said multi-story structure, the control system comprising at least one sensor external to said enclosure, at least one sensor internal to said enclosure, a call button at each floor, and a processor located within the enclosure, the processor configured to obtain data from each of said at least one sensor internal to said enclosure, said at least one sensor external to said enclosure and said call buttons, and to output data to a display screen in said enclosure and to an external control location, and wherein said at least one internal sensor is a people counter, the people counter being configured to issue an alarm to prevent operation when said enclosure has more than a preset number of people within, the people counter further configured to send a current number of people within to said processor for processing, the data allowing an operator to control said elevator.
A hoist elevator control method for a hoist elevator attached to a multi-story building structure of an incomplete building on a building site, the elevator comprising an enclosure for raising and lowering personnel and materials in said multi-story structure, the control method comprising:
A hoist elevator control system, a hoist elevator and an application for a telephone, the hoist elevator attached to a multi-story building structure of an incomplete building on a building site, the elevator comprising an enclosure for raising and lowering personnel and materials between floors of said multi-story structure, the control system comprising at least one sensor external to said enclosure, at least one sensor internal to said enclosure, and a processor located within the enclosure, the processor configured to obtain data from each of said at least one sensor internal to said enclosure, said at least one sensor external to said controller, and to output data to a display screen in said enclosure and to an external control location, the control system being configured to open a communication channel with said telephone application to control said hoist elevator from said telephone application.
