摘要: A solution for detecting an entity of an elevator system based on a representation generated from measurement data is provided. The solution includes generating the representation in a frequency domain descriptive of a vibration experienced by the elevator car; determining if the representation includes a number of portions corresponding to reference data; and setting, in accordance with a determination, a detection result to express one of the following: i) an entity corresponding to a vibrational fingerprint of the reference data is present in the elevator system, ii) an entity corresponding to a vibrational fingerprint of the reference data is absent in the elevator system.

摘要: The invention relates to a method of monitoring an elevator roping, the roping comprising plurality of movable ropes, the method comprising emitting light in particular with one or more light sources on the ropes while they move past the one or more light sources; and capturing with a camera system images continuously or intermittently of a zone towards which the one or more light sources emit light; and analyzing with an analyzing system the images captured by the camera system. Said emitting comprises emitting on a flank of each of said ropes at least one light beam having a shape, and said analyzing comprises recognizing in the images patterns of light emitted on said ropes and analyzing one or more characteristics of the recognized patterns.

摘要: An elevator includes a manual active dynamic braking function, which elevator includes an elevator control for operating at least one elevator car in at least one elevator driveway between landing floors in response to elevator calls, an AC elevator motor, which is able to generate power in a generator mode, a motor drive connected to the elevator control for the regulation of the speed of the elevator motor, including a frequency converter, whereby the frequency converter of the motor drive includes a rectifier bridge and an inverter bridge with semiconductor switch circuits, which rectifier bridge and inverter bridge are connected via a DC link, the motor drive further including a drive controller at least to control the semiconductor switches of the semiconductor switch circuits of the inverter bridge to regulate the elevator motor to a reference speed, whereby the semiconductor switch circuits of the inverter bridge are provided with diodes connected anti-parallel to the semiconductor switches, the motor drive including a safety logic for cutting off control pulses to the semiconductor switches, at least during power outage, at least one elevator brake is located in connection with the elevator motor and/or with a traction sheave of the elevator motor, a manual brake release lever is functionally linked to the elevator brake, movable between a rest position and at least one operating position to release the elevator brake manually. The motor drive includes a bypass switch being arranged to operate the safety logic, as to enable dynamical braking of the elevator motor by connecting the semiconductors of the semiconductor switch circuits of the inverter bridge with the drive controller, and the motor drive includes a DC supply circuit connected with the DC link, which is arranged to feed DC power at least to the drive controller and to the bypass switch to enable dynamic braking control of the semiconductor switches. The manual brake release lever is functionally connected with the bypass switch and is arranged to operate the bypass switch, when it is moved away from its rest position. Alternatively, the elevator includes a manual actuator, such as a key switch, disposed in the same location with the manual brake release lever, whereby the manual actuator is arranged to operate the manual bypass switch.

摘要: According to an aspect, there is provided an elevator communication system including a communication bus applying a master-slave protocol, a master node connected to the communication bus and at least one slave node connected to the communication bus. The master node and the at least one slave node are configured to apply, for data communication in the communication bus, a repeating frame structure in which a first time slot of a frame is reserved for the master node and in the remaining time slots of the frame each slave node of the at least one slave node has a dedicated time slot. The master node is configured to extend the time between consecutive frames in order to enable a power saving mode for the communication bus.
