Abstract: A device for adjusting the position of an elevator system, having position measuring means (14) that can be assigned to an elevator car (2) which is movable in an elevator shaft (6), which are designed for generating position data corresponding to a current shaft position of the elevator car, and position control means (34) which interact with the position measuring means (14) and which are paired with configuration means (16) that can be actuated manually and/or by means of data input means, in such a way that as a response to a manual actuation and/or actuation of the data input means, a plurality of car stopping positions that are distributed along the elevator shaft can be adjusted and stored, wherein a mobile data processing unit (26) which is wirelessly linked to the configuration means and which has a display unit (28) is paired with the configuration means (16), such that position data corresponding to the plurality of car stopping positions can be displayed together on the display, and the mobile dat

Abstract: A device for detecting the position of an elevator car (40) by a sensor and evaluation unit (20, 22, 24), accommodated in a sensor housing (10), which can be arranged on the elevator car, is designed for interaction with a strip (14) having a length and/or position coding and which is connected to a switching unit (12) that has a safety switch (30) and/or an interrupter contact for an emergency function, especially an emergency stop of the elevator car, the sensor and evaluation unit being designed for generating a position and/or speed signal from the length or position coding and for generating or receiving an elevator car status signal (62) that corresponds to an opening status of an elevator car.

The switching unit has a safety switch (30) and/or an interrupter contact for an emergency function, especially an emergency stop, of the elevator car. A switching device is associated with the position detecting device for inputting and storing a speed threshold value, the safety switch or interrupter contact being activated when said threshold value is reached or exceeded.

Abstract: An elevator car position measuring system includes a strip having a code mark pattern mounted near the elevator car and parallel to a travel direction, a code reading device mounted on the elevator car for contactless scanning of the code mark pattern and an evaluating unit connected to the code reading device for evaluating the scanned code mark pattern. A code word is formed by “n” successive code marks of the code mark pattern, a plurality of different ones of the code words are unambiguously arranged in an n-digit pseudo random sequence, the code words form a single-track of the code mark pattern and each of the code words represents an absolute car position. A floor sensor mounted on the elevator car detects position markings at floor levels along the travel direction and is connected to the evaluating units for evaluating the detected position markings against said scanned code words.
