  • a specific object of the invention is to enable easier installation of an elevator by integrating the electric elements to be placed on the elevator car in connection with the door operator comprised in the elevator car. In an embodiment, this integration can be implemented already at the manufacturing stage of the elevator.
  • the basic idea of the method of the invention is to integrate electric elements to be placed on the elevator car, such as the buttons for maintenance operation, the car positioning devices, the final limit switches, the car fan, the working lamp and/or the plug socket on the top of the elevator car, with the door operator.
  • the integration of the electric elements is implemented already at the manufacturing stage of the elevator.
  • the entire elevator car together with the door operator can be installed as a single assembly, in other words, a so-called common base is used.
  • the cross- connections of the cablings of the electric elements are made at the manufacturing stage of the elevator.
  • the electric elements may be placed together inside the door operator or the electric elements may be mounted in a separate box outside the door operator.
  • the integration arrangement of the invention By using the integration arrangement of the invention, the number of components and parts to be handled in the installation of an elevator is considerably reduced.

  • Fig. 2 presents an embodiment of the arrangement of the present invention for placing the electric elements of the car in the door operator.
  • Fig. 2 presents an embodiment of the arrangement of the invention for integrating the electric elements of the car in the door operator .
  • Fig. 2 presents an application where the electric elements are installed according to the invention in the door operator 22 of the elevator car.
  • the maintenance operation buttons 23 are placed in the door operator 22. From the maintenance operation buttons 23, information regarding e.g. a transition to maintenance operation mode is transmitted via a cross-connection card 21 to the elevator control system. Integrating the maintenance operation buttons 23 in connection with the door operator eliminates the need to have a separate maintenance drive unit on the top of the elevator car as all electric components are mounted in the door operator. Moreover, if the maintenance operation buttons are fixedly connected to the circuit card, possible wiring errors will be eliminated.
  • the cabling for the working lamp 28 placed on the top of the car and needed especially in connection with maintenance work has been left outside the door operator, but even this cabling can be integrated in connection with the door operator.
  • the light can be passed to the car top by a light guide or via lenses for maintenance work.
  • the plug socket 213 on the car top is also arranged in integration with the door operator 22.
  • the car operating panel 26 of the elevator is naturally not integrated in the door operator because the user has to be able to input his/her destination floor via the operating panel. Instead, information is transmitted from the operating panel to the elevator control system via the cross-connection card 21 placed in the door operator.
  • the elevator user inputs information regarding the desired destination floor by pressing one of the functional buttons on the operating panel, whereupon this information is transmitted via the cross-connection card to the car cable 210 and further to the elevator control system.
  • Integrating the positioning devices 27 of the elevator in the door operator 22 simplifies the electric connections of the car and improves the durability of the positioning devices while the service life of the elevator is extended.
  • the positioning devices communicate via the cross-connection card 21 and over the car cable 210 with the elevator control system, which, based on the position data, controls and allocates the elevators in accordance with the calls entered by the users.
  • the integration simplifies the cabling of the positioning devices in particular.
  • the final limit switches 214 are integrated in the door operator 22 as shown in Fig. 2.
  • a battery 212 is provided in the door operator 23 of the elevator.
  • the battery takes care of e.g. supplying the car light with electricity during a power failure.
  • the fan 29 of the elevator car is also arranged inside the door operator 22. Ventilation of the elevator car can be arranged by channeling the ventilating air from the fan 29 in the door operator into the elevator car. By contrast, the safety gear and the locking device needed especially in an elevator without machine room are still placed separately from the door operator.
  • the electrification of the elevator in the above example is integrated in the door operator already during manufacture, some of the electrification can also be implemented afterwards by adding electric elements to the door operator in separate additional boxes mounted on the door operator.
  • the electrification of the elevator may also comprise other electric components or elements which can be integrated in connection with the door operator but which are not mentioned in this application.
