    Abstract: A method and a device for detecting the presence of an object in an elevator car of an elevator system that has a control unit include a color temperature sensor. The color temperature sensor is integrated into the elevator car to acquire the color temperature of the light incident on the color temperature sensor during elevator operation, and an object present in the elevator car is detected by the control unit connected with the color temperature sensor by comparing the color temperature acquired during elevator operation with a previously acquired reference color temperature.

    Abstract: A hydraulic brake system for a passenger transport installation includes actuation equipment, a pump supplying brake fluid to a piston space of the actuation equipment and a motor driving the pump. A control device controls the motor by a frequency inverter whereby the pump supplies brake fluid at a predetermined delivery flow rate (QP). A pressure (pB) is set in the piston space corresponding to an equilibrium in which the delivery flow rate (QP) is equal to a return flow rate (QL). The control device sets the pressure (pB) by the delivery flow rate (QP) of the pump. The passenger transport installation can be a lift, an escalator or a moving walkway having this brake system operated according to the described method for controlling the braking force.

    Abstract: A method and a device for monitoring an elevator car door acquire one or more distances based on light emitted toward the car door by a distance measuring device and reflected at the car door as a function of a current closed state of the car door. Information about the current closed state of the car door is derived solely by comparing the acquired distance with a previously acquired reference distance, and a signal which represents the information can be fed to a remotely arranged control center. The monitoring device can be installed as a retrofit component that is capable of working autonomously in existing elevator systems, does not need to receive any data from a controller of the car door or the elevator system and only requires a relatively simple data processing device that only needs to carry out a comparison of detected distance values with reference values.

    Abstract: A method and system for inspecting and monitoring an elevator installation includes sending an autonomous flying object having at least one sensor to the elevator installation, and granting access to a hoistway of the elevator installation to the autonomous flying object. The autonomous flying object is positioned within the hoistway, and data collected by the associated sensor is sent to a remote elevator service center. The autonomous flying object and the associated sensor can be used to monitor and inspect the elevator installation on a temporary basis, for example for a specific number of hours, days or weeks. Once the autonomous flying object has gained access to the hoistway, the elevator installation can resume normal operation thereby keeping downtime to a minimum. After completing its tasks at one elevator installation, the autonomous flying object can be directed by the remote elevator service center to monitor and inspect another elevator installation.

    Abstract: A drive engine arrangement for an elevator system includes a drive engine for driving suspension traction media for displacing an elevator car, a fan for generating a fluid flow for cooling the drive engine and a fluid flow sensor. The fluid flow sensor senses the fluid flow generated by the fan. Accordingly, using the fluid flow sensor, it can be determined whether or not the fan is currently operating. By e.g. comparing the fan's behavior with previous operation patterns and/or by additionally measuring a temperature of the drive engine with a temperature sensor, it can be monitored whether the fan is operating correctly or whether e.g. cooling requirements may be compromised due to a malfunction of the fan. Such monitoring can be performed remotely and/or automatically.

    Abstract: A method for determining a state of a system for transportation of passengers includes the steps of: receiving condition data of the system, the condition data being generated by a condition sensor adapted for sensing physical conditions of an equipment of the system; receiving environmental data of the system, the environmental data containing information on an influence of an environment of the system on the equipment and/or the condition sensor; weighting the condition data with the environmental data; and determining a state of the equipment based on the weighted condition data.
