    Abstract: A device serves for determining the speed of a passenger-transporting system. The device includes an arrangement of auxiliary elements and a sensing device. The arrangement of the auxiliary elements rotates, in a manner corresponding to a movement of the passenger-transporting system. The sensing device can sense whether an auxiliary element is, or is not, located at a certain sensing location. The auxiliary elements are of a first configuration type and a second configuration type. The sensing device can sense whether an auxiliary element is of the first configuration type or of the second configuration type. Furthermore, the sensing device can assign an auxiliary element of the first configuration type and an auxiliary element of the second configuration type to one another such that the direction of rotation can be determined from the order in which the auxiliary elements are sensed.

    Abstract: A monitoring unit, for monitoring an elevator system, includes a circuit assembly having a power supply unit for dispensing a grid-dependent first operating voltage and at least one processor-controlled monitoring module to actively and/or passively ascertain state data of the elevator system. An energy storage unit, that dispenses a grid-independent second operating voltage, and a first switching device supply the first operating voltage to the monitoring module during a normal operation and supply the second operating voltage to the monitoring module in the event of a power outage. A non-volatile data storage unit that stores a variable operating parameter and a second switching device deactivate parts of the circuit assembly. The monitoring module actuates the second switching device based on the stored operating parameter that has a first value before the monitoring unit is started and has a second value after the monitoring unit is started.

    Abstract: A monitoring system for people-transporting systems, which systems are in the form of an elevator, escalator or moving walkway, includes at least one interrogation device and at least one safety switch that is connected to the interrogation device via an electrical safety circuit and is used for monitoring an equipment of the people-transporting device. A current direction-dependent unit is arranged in the electrical safety circuit. Furthermore, the interrogation device applies a test voltage with an alternating polarity to the electrical safety circuit. Furthermore, a people-transporting system having such a monitoring system is provided.

    Abstract: An elevator system drive unit moves an elevator car in an elevator shaft to at least two shaft access doors under control of a control unit. The car does not move or moves only to a limited extent if an individual is in the shaft. A monitoring unit and sensor (switching contact) detect changes in state in at least one of the doors using a sequence of pulses monitoring signal. The monitoring unit has a battery and can be switched to an autonomous mode when the elevator system is entirely or partially disabled. The monitoring unit, in the autonomous mode, records state data from the sensor and is connected to a safeguard unit that reads and evaluates the recorded state data, and prevents the elevator system from being put into the normal mode of operation if a change in the state of one of the monitored doors has been detected.

    Abstract: A safety circuit for an elevator system includes a first circuit having a plurality of switching contacts and a second circuit having a plurality of switching contacts. The switching contacts of the first circuit are connected in series, and the switching contacts of the second circuit are connected in parallel. Each switching contact of the first circuit is associated with a different switching contact of the second circuit. The switching contacts that are associated with each other are in opposite switching states.

    Abstract: A method for resetting a safety system of an elevator installation from an actual state, in which a normal operation of the elevator installation is not released, to a desired state, in which a normal operation of the elevator installation is released by the safety system includes the steps of: receiving a reset request, which is transmitted from the elevator control system, for resetting from the actual state to the desired state, in the safety system; carrying out verification of the reset request by the safety system; evaluating the verification by the safety system; and resetting the safety system from the actual state to the desired state if the verification by the safety system is evaluated as valid.
