Implementation of Elevator with Weight and Breakdown Mechanism using Xilinx ISE

Abstract

Elevator systems are an integral part of modern urban design, facilitating horizontal movement in multi-storey buildings. Ensuring the safety, reliability and efficiency of these systems is paramount. This work proposes a detailed design of an elevator control system using Xilinx ISE, with breakthrough features to enhance breakthrough detection and loading mechanism. Breach detection is an integral part of a systems security infrastructure. By continuously monitoring critical parameters such as motor speed and door status, it can immediately detect any abnormalities indicating a possible outage when detected, and the system immediately initiates predetermined routes , ensuring passenger safety and reducing downtime. Another important aspect of the system is the integration of containers. This system ensures that the elevator exceeds the specified load, thereby preventing dangerous overloads. Passenger and cargo weights are accurately measured by weight sensors, and system function is dynamically modulated to maintain the safety level the main aim to design an elevator that can solve the both overload and breakdown issues, rather than having each one implemented separately. To implement the proposed scheme, a hardware description language such as VHDL or Verilog is used to describe the behaviours of the individual modules. Extensive simulations are conducted to evaluate the performance of these modules under different operating conditions. The configuration is then created and modified using the Xilinx ISE tools.
