Elevator door monitoring system, elevator system and elevator door monitoring method

The present invention relates to a system for monitoring an elevator door, an elevator system, and a method for monitoring an elevator door. The elevator door has an open state or a closed state implemented by moving along an elevator sill. The system for monitoring an elevator door includes: one or more imaging sensors configured to collect image data and depth data of at least one section in the elevator sill that is exposed when the elevator door is in the open state; and a data processing device in communication with the imaging sensor and configured to receive and process the image data and the depth data to determine whether an obstacle preventing the elevator door from entering the closed state exists in the section. By applying the present invention, the safety of the elevator door can be improved effectively, and equipment property losses and personal injuries can be avoided.

11167955 · 2021-11-09 · ·

A method for generating maintenance data of an elevator door system includes detecting a first event during closing or opening of a door of the elevator door system and defining a time stamp of the first event, wherein the first event is opening or closing of a safety circuit; detecting at least one second event during said closing or opening of the door of the elevator door system and defining time stamp of the at least one second event; defining a difference value by comparing the time stamp of the first event and the time stamp of the at least one second event; comparing the difference value to previously stored one or more difference values; and generating maintenance data of the elevator door system. A system is provided to perform at least partly the method.

Elevator commissioning method, elevator commissioning system, and elevator system

The present invention relates to a method and a system of commissioning elevator, and an elevator system. The method includes obtaining at least one operation data of at least one elevator door, comparing the operation data with corresponding criterion operation data, and determining whether a deviation between the operation data and the criterion operation data exceeds a pre-set range, and if so, triggering a control over at least one control end relevant to the operation of the elevator door to make a deviation between the operation data re-obtained and the criterion operation data fall within the pre-set range. The invention will increase the efficiency in elevator commissioning and remove the adverse effects on elevator operation caused by factors such as “Stack Effect”, and thereby ensure good working condition and high security of elevators.
