An elevator system includes a hoistway and an elevator car positioned in the hoistway and configured to travel along the hoistway. The elevator car includes an elevator car door. A door operator assembly is fixed in the hoistway at a landing floor and includes a sensor to sense presence of the elevator car at the landing floor; and a door operator mechanism to open both the elevator car door and a landing floor door when the sensor senses presence of the elevator car at the landing floor. A light source may be fixed at the hoistway and a light transmitter is positioned at the elevator car to gather light from the light source and output the light into an interior of the elevator car. A ventilation system may be fixed at the hoistway and is interactive with the elevator car to condition an interior of the elevator car.

An elevator system includes a hoistway and an elevator car suspended in the hoistway via a suspension member and drivable along the hoistway. The elevator car includes an elevator car panel and a battery pocket positioned in the elevator car panel. A battery is removably positioned in the battery pocket. The battery and the battery pocket are configured such that inspection, maintenance and/or repair of the battery is performed without entry into the hoistway of the elevator system. A method of servicing an elevator system includes driving an elevator car along a hoistway and stopping the elevator car near a selected elevator landing floor. A battery is at least partially removed from a battery pocket at the elevator car via a technician located at the selected elevator landing floor for inspection, maintenance, replacement and/or repair.

Elevator systems, methods, and devices comprising dual source light systems are described herein. Such elevator systems may be associated with or located within wind turbines and wind turbine towers. In embodiments, an elevator cabin may comprise a dual source light system further comprising at least one light source, a supercapacitor unit, an electronic circuit electrically connected to the at least one light source and the supercapacitor, and a housing unit. The dual source light system can receive energy from an external power source, convert one or more characteristics of the energy, e.g., voltage or current, and distribute the energy to the at least one light source. Any excess energy can be used to charge the supercapacitor such that when energy from the external power source is insufficient to power the at least one light source, such as during an outage, the electronic circuit draws energy from the charged supercapacitor.

A disinfection system includes an ultraviolet disinfecting light, a controlling device, and an ultraviolet detecting device. The ultraviolet disinfecting light can be turned on or off under control. The controlling device controls the ultraviolet disinfecting light to be turned on or off. The ultraviolet detecting device is signally connected to the controlling device and is for detecting an intensity of the ultraviolet rays emitted by the ultraviolet disinfecting light. The controlling device controls the ultraviolet disinfecting light to increase an ultraviolet radiation dose of the ultraviolet rays emitted by the ultraviolet disinfecting light after the ultraviolet disinfecting light is turned on and the intensity of the ultraviolet rays is less than a predetermined intensity. An elevator equipment includes a car, a lift control device, and the disinfection system. In this way, the space can be disinfected with the ultraviolet rays to avoid insufficient disinfection effect.

Elevator interior lighting provided by a temporary LED light fixture and power supply installed on or adjacent an elevator canopy. The temporary LED power supply comprises an LED driver and an emergency LED power supply. The LED driver connects to LEDs of the temporary LED light fixture and supplies sufficient power to provide code-compliant temporary lighting in the cab. The emergency LED power supply module connects to one or more emergency LEDs and supplies sufficient power to provide code-compliant emergency lighting in the cab upon loss of primary electrical power. To minimize costs when converting to permanent lighting, additional LED light fixtures can be added and connected to the same temporary LED power supply, and the emergency LED power module may be relocated into a down light power supply to power two or more down lights in the event of a loss of primary electrical power.

The elevator comprising a car moving upwards and downwards in a well, a controller controlling the elevator, and a well lighting. The method comprises detecting a manual unlocking or a manual opening of a landing door, activating the well lighting automatically when the controller detects a manual unlocking or a manual opening of a landing door.

An elevator access control system comprises at least two cameras (14, 16) including: a first camera (14) which is configured to be mounted to an elevator car (6) for capturing at least one first picture of persons residing within the elevator car (6), and a second camera (16) which is configured to be mounted to the elevator car (6) for capturing at least one second picture of persons residing within the elevator car (6). The at least one first picture allows to identify individual persons, and the at least one second picture allows to count the number of persons residing within the elevator car (6).

A control system and method for elevator-waiting position of a robotic passenger. A control system for elevator-waiting position of a robotic passenger includes: a detection device configured to detect whether a first-choice elevator-waiting position has been occupied; and a position allocation unit configured to if the first-choice elevator-waiting position is not occupied, determine the first-choice elevator-waiting position as a target elevator-waiting position; and if the first-choice elevator-waiting position has been occupied, determine a candidate elevator-waiting position as the target elevator-waiting position or issue a prompt.
