    Abstract: A braking apparatus, that brakes and measures load changes in an elevator car, includes a brake, a brake holding arrangement holding the brake on the car, a load measuring device measuring a force acting on a force transmission element and a load measuring device holding arrangement holding the load measuring device on the car. The brake can be displaced relative to the car in a force direction generated by the brake and the load measuring device is held on the car fixed relative to the car in the force direction. The force transmission element is operatively connected to the brake to measure a force acting between the brake and the load measuring device due to a relative displacement of the brake relative to the load measuring device. A connecting piece arrangement connects the load measuring device holding arrangement and the brake holding arrangement in an elastically deformable manner.

    Abstract: An elevator system includes a control unit, a user interface unit, and a first access point unit. The first access point unit is configured as an access point of a first wireless network. The first access point unit, the control unit and the user interface unit are configured to communicate within the first wireless network. The control unit includes a second access point unit, the second access point unit being configured as an access point of a second wireless network. The second access point unit is configured to communicate with a plurality of client devices within the second wireless network. The first access point unit and the user interface unit are configured for sending and receiving an alarm signal therebetween within the first wireless network independent of the control unit.

    Abstract: A door system for an elevator system includes: a door frame framing a door opening and having a door jamb; and a monitoring unit mounted on the door frame and monitoring a region of the door opening. A region of the door frame has a retroreflective surface that extends over at least 20% of a height of the door jamb. The monitoring unit has a light source that illuminates the retroreflective surface with light beams and a light sensor that measures the angle-resolved intensity of the light beams reflected by the retroreflective surface. The monitoring unit determines an output value based upon the angle-resolved intensity and detects when the angle-resolved intensity falls below a threshold intensity for at least one angle. The output value includes whether there is an obstacle in the monitored region.

    Abstract: An elevator system includes a data network and is operated according to a method for identifying a component of the elevator system. The data network has at least one network node including a component of the elevator system. The component of the network node can be identified such that a control unit of the elevator system controls a light source in order to generate a light signal to indicate the network node. The component can be assigned to a light sensor when the light sensor detects the light signal, and the control unit is notified of the assignment of the component.
