AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This patented technology helps ensure accurate measurements for an elevators system during operation even when there are no physical connections between them or they may have issues related thereto. It also allows for easier adjustment based upon factors like weight distribution, shaft length, etc., which makes it possible to improve performance while minimizing costs associated with installing new equipment.

Problems solved by technology

Technological Problem addressed in this patented describes how robotic devices like escalators or lift gates interact safely during their movement across multiple levels within buildings without requiring any communications between them (such as wired connections). Current methods involve manually collecting measurements from each device's location, making sure they don’t interfere too much with other equipment located nearby. However, these techniques may result in errors due to factors like human error or environmental issues affecting signal reception. Additionally, some solutions rely heavily upon machine learning models trained over large amounts of data collected from different locations around the building. These systems often suffer from complexities and lack reliance on physical contact, limiting usable scenarios where the elevating platform could move freely.

Abstract

The invention provides a system for measuring floors based on an IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) and a photoelectric sensor, which comprises a module M1 for regularly reading data of the IMU deployed in an elevator so as to obtain the acceleration of the elevator in the vertical direction; the module M2 is used for judging the running direction of the elevator according to the initial change trend of the acceleration of the IMU in the vertical direction; the module M3 is used for fixedly reading a signal value on each floor of the elevator through a photoelectric sensor; the module M4 is used for carrying out addition or subtraction operation on the current floor by combining the signal value read by the photoelectric sensor with the running direction of the elevator, so that the real-time floor state of the elevator can be calculated; wherein the initial floors of the elevator are all calibrated on the first floor. The basic operation state of the elevator can be obtained without a butt joint protocol with an elevator manufacturer; and by adopting the IMU and the photoelectric sensor to measure the floor, the adaptability is higher, and the limitation of space is avoided.
