technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to an elevator, in particular to an elevator for transporting passengers and / or goods vertically. Background technique
[0002] In known elevators, the car travels along guide rails in the hoistway. Elevators typically include two or more vertically spaced landings at which the car is stopable so that passengers may enter or exit. For various reasons, such as to ensure safe operation of the elevator and to properly control the elevator, the elevator needs to be informed of the position of the car relative to the landing. The elevator can use this information for a variety of alternative purposes. Known elevators are generally provided with means for detecting the position of the car, which can be used to detect if and when the car is on a landing, and to determine in which landing zone the car is currently located. Such a device may also be provided for detecting whether the car is exactly at the level of the landing. ...
