    Abstract: An elevator door monitoring system for monitoring movement of an elevator door (6, 16) includes an elevator door detector (30) including an RFID tag (32) configured for being attached to a first element (16a, 26a) of the elevator door (6, 16); and an RFID sensor (34) configured for being attached to a second element (16b, 26b) of the elevator door (6, 16), wherein the second element (16b, 26b) is movable with respect to the first element (16a, 26a). The elevator door detector (30) is configured for detecting a distance between the first and second elements (16a, 26a, 16b, 26b) of the elevator door (6, 16) and for supplying a corresponding detection signal. The elevator door monitoring system includes an evaluator (17) configured for receiving detection signals supplied by the elevator door detector (30) and for evaluating the received detection signals for detecting potential malfunctions of the elevator door.

    Abstract: An elevator system (34) comprises a plurality of elevators (1) each of the elevators (1) comprising: a diagnostic unit (17) which is configured for running at least one diagnostic routine checking components of the elevator (1) and providing elevator operation and diagnosis data; a communication unit (30), which is configured for transmitting the elevator operation and diagnosis data provided by the diagnostic unit (17) to a remote diagnostic system (40); and for receiving control commands from said remote diagnostic system (40); and a control unit (14), which is configured for executing the control commands received by the communication unit (30). The elevator system (34) further comprises a diagnostic system (40) comprising at least one data receiving unit (42), which is configured for receiving the elevator operation and diagnosis data transmitted from the communication unit (30); at least one storage unit (44), which is configured for storing elevator operation and diagnosis data; at least one analyzing unit (46), which is configured for automatically analyzing the elevator operation and diagnosis data received by the at least one receiving unit (42) in order to detect a malfunction of an elevator (1); and at least one instruction unit (48), which is configured for sending instructions to the communication unit (30) of an elevator (1), for which a malfunction has been detected, instructing the control unit (14) of said elevator (1) to perform at least one specific action in order to overcome a detected malfunction.

    Abstract: A system for providing preventative maintenance of switchable components includes a load-moving system including one or more switchable components. The system also includes a microcontroller configured to operate the one or more switchable components of the load-moving system, to determine a number of switching events of the one or more switchable components and to perform a preventative maintenance action based on determining that the number of switching events is greater than a threshold number of switching events.

    Abstract: An elevator system (2) comprises a hoistway (4) extending in a longitudinal direction between a plurality of landings (8); an elevator car (6), which is configured for traveling along the hoistway (4) between the plurality of landings (8); at least one three-dimensional structure (12) extending along at least a section of the hoistway (4) in a longitudinal direction; and an optical sensor (25) attached to the elevator car (6). The optical sensor (25) is configured for detecting the at least one three-dimensional structure (12) in order to determine the current position of the elevator car (6) within the hoistway (4).
