Abstract (en)

[origin: CA2042971A1] Summary: In this group control, upper as well as also lower cages of the double cages can be used at a main stopping place for journeys to even-numbered and odd-numbered storeys. For this purpose, a respective call store (20, 21),in which the calls entered at the main stopping place and identifying the target storeys are stored, is associated with the lower and the upper cage. A switching circuit (32) at its input side stands in connection with the call stores (20, 21) in such a manner that the double cage concerned is scheduled in dependence on a allocated call as stopping at storey pairs numbered even-odd or odd-even. At the output side, the switching circuit (32) is connected with a switching equipment (31), which has the effect that either the double cages stopping at storey pairs numbered evenodd or the double cages stopping at storey pairs numbered odd-even are excluded from the allocation process in the case of a further call still to be allocated in order to maximise the possibilities for co-incident stops without losing flexibility. (Fig. 2)
