METHOD FOR PROCESSING CALL INPUTS BY AN ELEVATOR CONTOLLER AND ELEVATOR SYSTEMS FOR IMPLEMENTING THE METHOD
The invention relates to a method for the processing of call inputs of a user by an elevator controller of an elevator installation in which a user inputs either an external call and an internal call or a destination call into the elevator controller, wherein the elevator controller generates at least two sub-calls in reaction to the internal call or the destination call, wherein the sub-calls comprise at least one external call and/or at least one internal call whose destination floor is different from the destination floor of the internal call input by the user. The invention furthermore relates to a method in which an elevator controller generates a destination call or an internal call in reaction to an external call. The invention furthermore relates to corresponding elevator installations designed for carrying out these methods.

SWITCH DEVICE FOR ELEVATOR
A switch device for an elevator is arranged to manipulate a physical button of the elevator. The physical button is triggered to generate an operating signal to control the operation of the elevator. The switch device for the elevator includes a motion sensor, an actuator and a controller. The motion sensor detects the movement of a user to generate a sense signal. The actuator is disposed at the position corresponding to the physical button. The actuator presses the physical button based on a control signal. The controller is electrically connected to the motion sensor and the actuator. The controller receives the sense signal and generates the control signal based on the sense signal. The controller transmits the control signal to the actuator. A switch device of an elevator is able to manipulate the elevator under the condition that the user does not touch the physical button.

DEVICE FOR CALLING ELEVATORS
A device that can be foot activated and used to call an elevator and/or control one or more functions of the elevator is disclosed. In particular, the user can step on one or more parts of the device to call an elevator to go to a floor located above or below a floor the user is currently located or to select specific floors. The device utilizes one or more air chambers/pockets that can be pressed to activate the sequence of air to travel through an air outlet of the air chamber/pocket, through an air hose, in order to activate switches on electrical contacts that are in electrical communication with the elevator call box. The electrical contacts are electrically connected to specific push buttons of an elevator to call and/or control specific elevator functions including ascending, descending, or traveling to a specific floor.
