Abstract

An authorization management and authorization request of an elevator service request pertaining to the technical field of elevator management. The system for authorization management of the elevator service request includes a wireless signal device and an authorization management device, the wireless signal device being used for broadcasting an elevator identifier of a corresponding elevator system; the system for authorization management obtains the elevator identifier broadcasted by the wireless signal device through a personal mobile terminal; the authorization management device is used to receive authorization request information from the personal mobile terminal, the authorization request information containing a terminal identifier of the personal mobile terminal and the elevator identifier of the corresponding elevator system obtained by the personal mobile terminal.

Claims (36)

1. A system for authorization management of an elevator service request, comprising:

a wireless signal device for broadcasting an elevator identifier of a corresponding elevator system; and

an authorization management device;

wherein the system for authorization management obtains the elevator identifier broadcasted by the wireless signal device through a personal mobile terminal; the authorization management device is used to receive authorization request information from the personal mobile terminal, the authorization request information containing a terminal identifier of the personal mobile terminal and the elevator identifier of the corresponding elevator system obtained by the personal mobile terminal;

wherein said system for authorization management obtains the elevator identifier broadcasted by the wireless signal device through a shaking operation of the personal mobile terminal.

2. The system for authorization management according to claim 1 , wherein the personal mobile terminal triggers a wireless signal scanning operation when the shaking operation occurs so as to obtain the elevator identifier broadcasted by the wireless signal device.

3. The system for authorization management according to claim 1 , wherein the authorization management device comprises:

a receiving unit configured to receive the authorization request information from one or more personal mobile terminals, wherein the authorization request information contain the elevator identifier and the terminal identifier of the personal mobile terminal mapped to the elevator identifier; and

an authorization management unit configured to determine whether the authorization request information from the corresponding personal mobile terminal is allowed to be authorized at least according to the mapping relationship between the elevator identifier and the terminal identifier in the authorization request information.

4. The system for authorization management according to claim 1 , wherein the authorization management device is configured to be able to return an authorization result corresponding to the authorization request information to the personal mobile terminal.

5. The system for authorization management according to claim 4 , wherein the personal mobile terminal stores the authorization result and is further used for determining whether the elevator system corresponding to the currently obtained elevator identifier has been authorized based on the authorization result and, in the case of determining that authorization has been granted, not generating or sending authorization request information corresponding to the currently obtained elevator identifier.

6. The system for authorization management according to claim 1 , wherein the authorization management device is further used to determine whether the authorization request information is an invalid request.

7. The system for authorization management according to claim 1 , wherein the wireless signal device is further used to establish a wireless connection with the personal mobile terminal to receive elevator service request commands from the personal mobile terminal.

8. A method for authorization management of an elevator service request, comprising the steps of:

broadcasting, by a wireless signal device, an elevator identifier of an elevator system corresponding to the wireless signal device;

obtaining the elevator identifier broadcasted by the wireless signal device through a personal mobile terminal; and

receiving authorization request information from the personal mobile terminal, wherein the authorization request information contain a terminal identifier of the personal mobile terminal and the elevator identifier of the corresponding elevator system obtained by the personal mobile terminal;

wherein in the step of obtaining the elevator identifier, the elevator identifier broadcasted by the wireless signal device is obtained through the shaking operation of the personal mobile terminal.

9. The method for authorization management according to claim 8 , which further comprises the step of:

generating and sending the authorization request information by the personal mobile terminal.

10. The method for authorization management according to claim 8 , wherein the step of obtaining the elevator identifier includes triggering the personal mobile terminal to perform a wireless signal scanning operation when the shaking operation occurs so as to obtain the elevator identifier broadcasted by the wireless signal device.

11. The method for authorization management according to claim 8 , which further comprises the step of:

determining whether the authorization request information from the corresponding personal mobile terminal is allowed to be authorized at least according to the mapping relationship between the elevator identifier and the terminal identifier in the authorization request information.

12. The method for authorization management according to claim 8 , which further comprises the step of:

returning an authorization result corresponding to the authorization request information to the personal mobile terminal.

13. The method for authorization management according to claim 12 , which further comprises the step of:

determining whether the elevator system corresponding to the currently obtained elevator identifier has been authorized based on the authorization result stored in the personal mobile terminal, and, in the case of determining that authorization has been granted, not generating or sending authorization request information corresponding to the currently obtained elevator identifier.

14. He method for authorization management according to claim 8 , which further comprises the step of:

determining whether the authorization request information is an invalid request.

15. An authorization request method for an elevator service request, comprising the steps of:

obtaining, by a personal mobile terminal, an elevator identifier, broadcasted by a wireless signal device, of an elevator system corresponding to the wireless signal device; and

generating, on the basis of the obtained elevator identifier, authorization request information containing the terminal identifier of the personal mobile terminal and the elevator identifier of the corresponding elevator system obtained by the personal mobile terminal;

wherein the step of obtaining the elevator identifier includes obtaining the elevator identifier broadcasted by the wireless signal device through a shaking operation of the personal mobile terminal.

16. The authorization request method according to claim 15 , wherein the step of obtaining the elevator identifier includes triggering the personal mobile terminal to perform a wireless signal scanning operation when the shaking operation occurs so as to obtain the elevator identifier broadcasted by the wireless signal device.

17. The authorization request method according to claim 15 , which further comprising the step of determining whether the elevator system corresponding to the currently obtained elevator identifier has been authorized based on the authorization result stored in the personal mobile terminal, and, in the case of determining that authorization has been granted, not generating or sending authorization request information corresponding to the currently obtained elevator identifier.

18. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, on which computer programs are stored, wherein said programs can be executed by a processor to implement steps of the authorization request method according to claim 15 .
