Abstract: A novel elevator door interlock assembly configured for use in an elevator having a swing door is provided. The elevator door interlock further configured to enable use of the elevator and disable use of the elevator. The novel elevator door interlock including a mounting plate configured for attachment to a surface of a swing door frame. An interlock module is attached to the mounting plate and configured to facilitate locking and unlocking of the swing door. A latch bracket is attached to the swing door and configured for insertion into a cavity formed within the interlock module. The combination of the mounting plate and the interlock module have a maximum thickness of 0.75 inches.

Abstract: The present invention combines a residential elevator and automatic pet door with an intelligence component comprised of a Programmable Logic Controller with programmed intelligence that enables interoperability between the residential elevator and automatic pet door. In practice a pet will wear a collar with an attached or embedded transmitter. As the pet approaches the elevator door, the swing door will open and the accordion gate will open. If the elevator is at another level when the pet approaches, a call will be submitted to bring the elevator to the pet's level. The swing door and gate will open automatically when the elevator arrives. The gate and door will remain open long enough for the pet to enter the elevator and close automatically. The call to another floor will automatically be submitted to the elevator based on the current floor location.
