Definitions

• the invention relates to a driver system for elevator doors consisting of a magnet arranged on a car door, which acts with its magnetic field on a magnetizable driver curve arranged on a storey door.
• a driver device in which the cabin door is magnetically coupled to the floor door when the cabin and floor door are opened and closed.
• An electromagnet or permanent magnet arranged on the car door acts with its magnetic field on a magnetizable driver arranged on the floor door, the doors being coupled by means of magnetic force and being opened and closed together by means of a door drive.
• pivotable rollers are arranged on the magnet, the magnetic force counteracting spring forces generated by springs arranged on the rollers.
• Driver device can not be corrected sufficiently and there is therefore a risk that the driver device collides with the shaft door sill or parts of the shaft door lock during elevator operation and thus malfunctions and damage to system parts can occur.
• the invention seeks to remedy this.
• the invention as characterized in claim 1, solves the problem of avoiding the disadvantages of the known device and of creating a driver system which has different tolerance positions on the cabin door Driver elements and driver elements arranged on the shaft door are automatically adjusted during the door movement.
• the advantages achieved by the invention can be seen essentially in the fact that the required distance between the cabin door sill and the shaft door sill can be minimized, so that the gap between the sleepers can also be run over with small-wheeled vehicles. It is also advantageous that movement tolerances occurring horizontally in the X / Y direction from loading and unloading of the elevator car as well as tolerances from guide wear and building settlements are automatically recognized and corrected. It is also advantageous that the elevator doors can be opened prematurely while the elevator car is entering a stop in the upward and downward direction of travel without certain driver elements being subjected to particular wear and tear. An advantageous consequence of this is the long service life and freedom from maintenance of the driver system according to the invention.
