Embodiments as disclosed herein provide a car operation panel for commanding travel of an elevator car from a boarding landing to a destination landing during normal operation of an elevator system. The car operation panel has a plurality of car operation switches to be operated by a passenger from inside of the elevator car during normal operation of the elevator system. The car operation panel is mechanically convertible such as to switch the car operation panel from a first configuration corresponding to the normal operation mode to a second configuration corresponding to an inspection and maintenance operation mode. The car operation panel, when switched to the second configuration, allows manual control of the elevator car to travel in up direction and/or in down direction by operating at least a part of the car operation switches of the car operation panel.

A multi-use interface for use in an elevator includes an input device to receive input and a selection device associated with the input device, the selection device to select between an operation mode and a service mode, wherein the operation mode allows the input device to receive a standard elevator function input, the multi-use interface generating a standard elevator function output in response to the standard elevator function input, and the service mode allows the input device to receive a service function input, the multi-use interface generating a service function output in response to the service function input.

An elevator pushbutton device has a guide housing and an actuating element disposed within the guide housing. The guide housing is provided with fastening wings, the guide housing and the actuating element are made of metal material, and the guide housing is a monolithic one-piece metal injection molded component.

Embodiments are directed to receiving, by a demand entering device configured to receive an elevator destination command, a request for at least one of: statistical data regarding use of at least one elevator, and field data in connection with a field service, maintenance, repair, or installation activity associated with the at least one elevator, and obtaining, by the demand entering device, at least one of the statistical data and the field data in response to the request.

An electronic terminal device can be configured using a device identifier that is input into the device. The terminal device sends the device identifier to a configuration server. The configuration server responds by sending configuration information to the terminal device based on the device identifier.

A notification system and a notification method for an elevator, and an elevator system are provided by the present disclosure. The notification system for an elevator includes: a wake-up module, which is configured to wake up a user mobile terminal when the user mobile terminal enters a specified area, so that the user mobile terminal sends a request to a server; and the server, which is configured to receive a reminder item setting from an administrator, and which is configured to push a reminder item to the user mobile terminal upon receiving the request from the user mobile terminal, the reminder item including elevator repair or maintenance information. The system and method according to the present disclosure allows a user to conveniently know about elevator repair or maintenance information.

A landing door of an elevator system includes a door leaf that is equipped with an integrated operating and/or display panel. In the event of a fire, a printed circuit board of the operating and/or display panel is removed from the door leaf by activation of an ejection device comprising intumescent material and being positioned in the door leaf.

An elevator installation system and method is disclosed that includes a support structure having a first surface and a second surface. The support structure is oriented such that the first surface faces in a first direction and the second surface faces in a second direction opposite the first direction. The system further includes a hoist supporting the support structure such that at least a portion of the hoist is positioned facing the second surface.

An elevator installation system includes a support structure having a first surface and a second surface. The support structure is configured to support a worker standing on the first surface. The support structure includes at least a portion of an elevator car comprising an elevator cab. The elevator cab includes an interior space for use by at least one of a passenger or cargo. The second surface is a surface of the interior of the elevator cab. The elevator installation system includes a hoist supporting the support structure such that at least a portion of the hoist is coupled with the second surface. The elevator installation system includes a suspension member coupled to the hoist and extending from the hoist in the first direction.

In the modernization of a hall display device, the number of cables connected to operating equipment may increase since the shape and the number of pushbuttons, indicators and the like are changed. In this case, it is necessary to further process a hole at the worksite for passing the cables in accordance with the number of cables, which makes the work complicated. In the present invention, a frame having an opening in the center is fixed to a hall wall, and a front plate having operating equipment is fixed in a way as to cover the opening on the hall side of the frame. A back plate having a hole for passing cables is detachably fixed in a way as to cover the opening on the elevator hoistway side.
