The electronic control unit includes an activation module to provide a first activation signal to a first set of motors. The activation module detects movement of the elevator cabin towards a requested destination using a first set of sensors. The activation module provides a second activation command to a second set of motors to control motion of the elevator cabin. The electronic control unit includes a detection module to detect presence of the elevator cabin at the requested destination using a second set of sensors. The electronic control unit includes a landing control module to provide a deactivation signal to the motors and activates a landing lever assembly to lock the elevator cabin at the requested destination.

Abstract:
A system and method for controlling multiple elevator cabs in an elevator shaft of a structure, comprising: at least one elevator shaft having a plurality of zones, each zone representing at least one floor of the structure; at least one zone having at least one sensor; at least two elevator cabs moveable within the shaft, each cab moveable independently of other cabs; and a controller that determines movement of each cab into a zone. A first cab preceding any other cab, designated a leading cab; each cab following the leading cab, designated as a trailing cab; each cab moveable in the same direction of travel to service zones until each cab reaches its designated end zone; wherein the controller only instructs a trailing cab to move into a zone with a sensor, after the sensor in said zone detects a cab that was located in such zone has exited that zone thereby preventing collisions.

Abstract:
An elevator system (10) includes a wireless batteryless hall call switch module (22) that transmits a unique wireless code when a person presses a hall call button (32, 34) requesting elevator service. A hall indicator module (24) includes an RF transceiver (64) that receives the wireless code from the switch module (22), activates a display to indicate that a button has been pushed, and transmits the hall call information to the elevator control system (14). When the elevator controller (14) informs the transceiver (64) of car arrival, the hall indicator module (24) causes the display to indicate car arrival.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a circuit device for a braked motor (M) forming part of a lifting installation, whereby the circuit device comprises three supply voltage lines (R, S, T), contactors (Kl, K2 ) arranged in each supply voltage line, at least one frequency converter (F) and three output voltages (u, v, w) connected to the motor (M), whereby the contactors (Kl, K2 ) are connected in such a way that they can break the voltage to the frequency converter (F). A distinguishing feature of the circuit device according to the present invention is that for at least two of the supply voltage lines (R, S, T) to the frequency converter (F) the contactors (Kl, K2) are bypassed by at least one resistor (R) belonging to each supply voltage line (R, S, T), the resistors (R) taking the form of safety resistances.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a device, a method and a system for improving the safety system of an elevator. The safety system of the invention comprises an electric safety device, which monitors the velocity and position of the elevator in the elevator shaft. The safety device is e.g. a computer that is able to stop the elevator, using the brake of the hoisting machine or an optional car brake. The basic idea of the safety system of the invention is to form a continuous limit curve for control of elevator speed. The limit curve defines the limits of allowed elevator motion, which are determined on the basis of the nominal speed of the elevator and the location of the car. The safety system of the invention comprises measuring means for continuous measurement of elevator motion data and a safety device that receives data about the motion of the elevator, calculates its velocity at each instant of time utilizing the elevator motion data and watches the elevator motion to ensure that it remains within the allowed limit curve. Moreover, the safety system comprises a stopping device for stopping uncontrolled motion of the car if the elevator motion exceeds the limit curve set for it.
