Patent number: 10758316Abstract: The invention relates to a rod-shaped body comprising a central section and a peripheral section, wherein the central section is arranged in the center of the rod-shaped body and is enclosed by the peripheral section. Both the central section and the peripheral section substantially extend along the entire length of the rod-shaped body. The central section comprises at least one non-metallic fiber bundle that is embedded in a non-ferromagnetic matrix material. The matrix material is doped with marker particles. The peripheral section comprises at least one undoped, non-ferromagnetic matrix material. The diameter of the central section is less than or equal to 0.2 mm, preferably less than or equal to 0.15 mm, and even more preferably, less than or equal to 0.1 mm, and in particular less than or equal to 0.08 mm.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2015Date of Patent: September 1, 2020Assignee: MARVIS INTERVENTIONAL GMBHInventors: Klaus Düring, Nasib Dlaikan-Campos, Maarten Van Dijk

Patent number: 10676314Abstract: The invention relates to a method for allocating elevators of an elevator group to landing calls given in the elevator group, the elevator group having a control unit having a destination call control, which elevator control unit is connected to determining means for the prevailing traffic condition in the elevator group. Further the control unit comprises at least a first and second operating mode which are selected according to the prevailing traffic condition, wherein the first operating mode uses immediate call allocation of the elevators which includes the display of the allocated elevator on a destination operating panel immediately after having issued a landing call and wherein the second mode comprises the allocation of an elevator to a landing call before the arrival of the allocated elevator call to the landing where the landing call has been issued. The invention allows an adaption of destination control to different traffic situations.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2016Date of Patent: June 9, 2020Assignee: Kone CorporationInventors: Maarten Van Dijk, Manfred Van Der Heijden
