Abstract: A contacting device for electrically contacting tensile carriers of a suspension in an elevator system includes a housing having a recess in which an exposed segment of the suspension can be received so that the housing at least partially encloses the exposed segment of the suspension. Raised areas and recesses are alternatingly disposed on an inner side of the housing, wherein a raised area and a recess face each other in a state of use. At least one contact element is disposed in a recess of the housing, wherein the at least one raised area can be pressed against a tensile carrier of the suspension, such that the tensile carrier is brought into electrical contact with the contact element.

Abstract: A sliding door for an elevator installation includes door leaves, which are horizontally displaceable between a closed position and an open position. The sliding door also includes a synchronization element, which is coupled with the door leaves and so synchronizes these that the door leaves are guided at different speeds, in an opening direction from the closed position to the open position or conversely opposite to the opening direction. The synchronization element includes at least one scissors linkage. The sliding door also includes a drive shaft coupled by way of a drive linkage at least with one door leaf. The sliding door additionally includes a locking mechanism which is so coupled with the drive shaft that the locking mechanism is openable by an actuation of the drive shaft when the door leaves are still substantially closed.
