Disclosed is an elevator system having: a controller; an elevator car operationally connected to the controller; a first sensor configured to provide first sensor data to the controller, wherein the controller is configured to identify a capacity parameter of the elevator car, wherein the capacity parameter includes one or more of: loaded weight; volume of available space; or volume of occupied space; a second sensor configured to provide second sensor data to the controller, wherein the controller is configured to determine that passengers remain outside the elevator car when the elevator car is stopped at a landing and its elevator doors are open; and wherein from the first sensor data and the second sensor data, the controller is configured to determine a reduced capacity limit for the elevator car as a function of the capacity parameter.

A switch arrangement for a lift, preferably a personnel lift or goods lift, including marked pushbuttons and an electrical conductor connection to a control device of the lift. The switch arrangement is provided with at least one elastically deformable plate element with the pushbuttons with the marking on the upper side of the button. A recognition element for the bending in the button is arranged beneath this plate element of the at least one pushbutton. In addition, an electrical conductor connection is provided from the recognition elements to the control device. As a result, it is possible for thinner and more user-friendly switch arrangements to be installed in or outside a lift, in particular for controlling it, or for general functions.

In an elevator operation panel, a base of a casing includes a back plate portion, a lateral plate portion, and a vertical plate portion. An outer surface of the lateral plate portion, which faces the exterior of the casing, and a vertical direction end surface of the vertical plate portion on the lateral plate portion side are disposed in an identical plane. An L-shaped slit is provided between the back plate portion and the lateral plate portion. The slit includes a rectilinear portion, and a. projecting portion that projects into the back plate portion. In a condition where the lateral plate portion is bent relative to the back plate portion, a surface of the lateral plate portion that faces the rectilinear portion overlaps a surface of the back plate portion on an opposite side to a wall.
