Abstract: An elevator panel assembly comprises a detachable panel (4), for covering a front surface of an elevator car panel (2b), and a separation member (7). The separation member (7) comprises a head portion (7a) received against a back surface of the detachable panel (4). The detachable panel (4) is magnetically attachable to the elevator car panel (2b) and comprises a through hole (9) which is smaller than the head portion (7a) of the separation member (7) and arranged to sit directly over the head portion (7a). The separation member (7) is configured so that a tool inserted through the through hole (9) engages with the head portion to apply a mechanical force, causing the head portion (7a) to push against the back surface of the detachable panel (4).

Abstract: An elevator system includes an elevator car, an elongate tension member operably connected to the elevator car and configured to move the elevator car, and an elevator car position measurement system. The elevator car position measurement system includes a pulse generator configured to transmit a pulse along the elongate tension member; and a detector unit configured to receive the pulse from the pulse generator after the pulse has been transmitted along a length of the elongate tension member and to record a time at which the pulse is received. One of the pulse generator and the detector unit is arranged to move within the hoistway dependent on a position of the elevator car within the hoistway, such that a length of the elongate tension member along which the pulse is transmitted changes dependent on a position of the elevator car within the hoistway.
