The one or more processors determine whether the hoistway door is properly positioned with respect to the elevator car door based on the reflected signal received by the receiver. If the hoistway door is not properly positioned, the elevator car is prevented from moving. If the hoistway door is properly positioned, the elevator car is free to move.Type: GrantFiled: June 20, 2018Date of Patent: December 27, 2022Assignee: G.A.L.
