Abstract: An emergency ventilation system for elevator cabs includes a low voltage power source defined by the secondary winding of a stepdown transformer having its primary winding connected across a primary power source. An emergency power circuit has a single pole, double throw relay located in a normal power position when the primary power source is "on" wherein it connects the low voltage power source to the ventilating fans. The single pole, double throw relay has an emergency position wherein it is positioned to connect the emergency battery source to the ventilating fans so as to operate them independently of the primary power source for providing uninterrupted ventilation to the elevator cab.

Abstract: An emergency illumination device for elevator cabs and the like that includes a low voltage power source defined by the secondary winding of a stepdown transformer having its primary winding connected across a primary power source. When the primary power source is "on", a charging circuit maintains a constant charge on an emergency battery source while providing battery source power to an emergency alarm device that can be activated by a push button on the control panel of the elevator. When the primary power is off, the emergency battery source is activated by a circuit that will continue to provide power to the alarm device and also will provide general illumination to the interior of the elevator and spot illuminate the push button so that it can be easily located and operated by occupants in need of assistance.

Abstract: A down lighting system for elevator cabs and the like includes halogen lights in standard and emergency light fixtures. Both types of fixtures are connected to the ceiling by a clamp arrangement which is universally adaptable to a wide variety of ceiling types without changing the light housing dimensions. The clamp arrangement fastens light housings against rotation with respect to the ceiling and it is adjustable to different height ceiling configurations merely by connection to different vertical positions of the outer surface of the fixture. The standard fixture includes a halogen bulb with its own reflector. The emergency lighting fixture includes a halogen bulb/reflector unit with the emergency self focusing bulbs concentrically spaced around it. Both light sources pass focused light directly into the space below the ceiling for meeting test point candle power requirements.

Abstract: A hall lighting system includes a plurality of downlighting lamps all dedicated to hall illumination during normal power conditions. Each lamp is connected across a low voltage power source defined by the secondary winding of a stepdown transformer having its primary winding connected across a primary power source. When the primary power source is "on" an emergency lighting system has a triple pole double throw relay located in a normal lighting position in which two of the poles of the relay connect a charger to an emergency battery power source of a voltage less than the voltage across the secondary winding and a third pole of the relay connects the lamps across the secondary winding.
