  • Patent number: 10981754
    Abstract: An elevator car wall includes a support construction formed of a grid structure with vertical and horizontal support rods and a surface construction formed of panels attached with panel fastening elements to the grid structure. A vertical seam profile with a U-shaped bottom portion and an I-shaped middle portion is positioned between panel rows and attached with seam profile fastening elements to the grid structure. The middle portion extends between the vertical edges of the panel rows. A portion of the panel fastening element extends into contact with an inside surface of a respective branch of the U-shaped bottom portion in order to secure the vertical side edge of the panel against the middle portion.

  • Patent number: 10831229
    Abstract: A push-button equipment includes a pressel; a mounting collar for being installed on a base, such as a button panel, the mounting collar including a seat for receiving the pressel; the pressel including a pressing face for receiving a press of a user and being insertable in the seat of the mounting collar in a forward direction orthogonal to the pressing face. The pressel is movable in the seat into a locked position by rotating it in the seat around a rotational axis extending in said direction orthogonal to the pressing face. In said locked position the collar blocks the pressel from moving in backwards direction orthogonal to the pressing face out from the seat. A pressel for the push-button equipment and a push-button arrangement of an elevator are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 9190820
    Abstract: The invention relates to a cable gland plate for passing cables in a sealed fashion through a casing, such as the wall of a low voltage switchgear. The cable gland plate includes a substantially rectangular rigid frame (6) and, a set of gland elements (7,8,9) and a pressure unit (16). According to the invention, one pair of opposed edges (12) of the rigid frame includes slide bars (10); one pair of opposed edges of each gland element (7,8,9) includes slide posts (14) arranged to be fitted to the opposed slide bars; and the pressure unit (16) includes an actuator (35) carrying out two sequential pressure actions in such a way that the first pressure action presses the gland elements to each other in the lengthwise direction of the slide bars, and the second pressure action pushes the pressure unit against the frame and the adjacent gland elements.

  • Patent number: 6240647
    Abstract: The invention relates to an orienteering compass comprising a distance measuring device (4) including a circular element (11) to be rotated over a map from an arbitrary point A to an arbitrary point B for determining the distance from point A to point B. In order to make orienteering easier without significantly enlarging the size of the compass, the distance measuring device comprises an axis (7) provided with a screw thread (6), a pointer (11) to be moved using the screw thread (6) and at least one measuring scale (13, 14) for indicating the distance. The invention also relates to a distance measuring device for an orienteering compass provided with a base plate.
