ELEVATOR SYSTEM
An elevator system 20 is provided including a hoistway 33 that does not include a ventilation opening 50 configured to fluidly couple to the hoistway to an air source disposed outside of the hoistway. An elevator car 24 is movable within the hoistway between a plurality of landings 27. A plurality of landing doors 26 is arranged at each of the plurality of landings. The landing doors are movable between an open position and a closed position. The plurality of landing doors is configured to allow a defined amount of fluid flow there through when in a closed position.
ELEVATOR CABIN AND ELEVATOR SYSTEM COMPRISING SUCH A CABIN
Elevator cabin includes:a platform having a peripheral edge;at least one panel arranged near the peripheral edge for defining a wall and comprising an end portion folded outwardly of the platform, a plurality of first through openings being obtained along said end portion; anda bracket having an extension along a main direction following a section of the peripheral edge and comprising a first portion mounted on the peripheral edge and a second portion originating from the first portion with an extension away therefrom at a first distance above the platform. The bracket and the platform internally delimit a gap. The second portion has a plurality of second through openings. The end portion is arranged on the bracket so that the first through openings are at least partially superimposed on the second through openings whereby said gap communicates with an external environment.
Elevator-based air quality sensing system for buildings
A method of monitors a climate quality within a building having an elevator running between floors of an elevator hoistway. The elevator car of the elevator includes at least an air-quality sensor. The method is characterized in that a fan of the elevator car is running when the door(s) of the car is/are opening at a floor station to suck air from the building's floor level into the elevator car to the vicinity of the air-quality sensor and sensing the air-quality by the sensor preceding to generating data of the air-quality.
Presentation information generation device and presentation information generation method
A presentation information generation device includes: a recommended position calculating unit that acquires ventilation equipment information indicating a state of ventilation equipment in a passenger car and outputs recommended position information of a passenger by using the ventilation equipment information; a presentation information generating unit that generates and outputs recommended position presenting information indicating a recommended position of the passenger in the passenger car by using the recommended position information output by the recommended position calculating unit; and a presentation information output unit that outputs, to a presentation device, the recommended position presenting information generated by the presentation information generating unit.
Elevator system with cabin divider
An elevator system, having: an elevator car, the elevator car including: a front end that includes a front doorway; an aft end that includes an aft doorway; and a cabin extending from the front end to the aft end; and a divider system operationally coupled to the elevator car within the cabin, intermediate the front and aft ends, that is operational to transition between: a retracted state, where the cabin is undivided; and a deployed state where the divider system divides the cabin into a front zone that is accessible by the front doorway and an aft zone that is accessible by the aft doorway.
