Elevator systems including an elevator car moveable within an elevator shaft, the elevator car having a first elevator car component, the first elevator car component having a first side facing an interior of the elevator car and a second side opposite from the first side and a structural sound-generation system. The structural sound-generation system having at least one audio actuator coupled to the second side of the first elevator car component and an audio system controller in communication with the at least one audio actuator. The structural sound-generation system is configured to generate vibrations within the first elevator car component such that sound waves are produced therefrom and projected into the interior of the elevator car.

An elevator car wall imaging system () is provided. The elevator car wall imaging system () includes an interior region of an elevator car, the interior region defined by a floor, a ceiling and a plurality of interior side walls. The elevator car wall imaging system () also includes an image generator () operatively connected to a network, the image generator () configured to generate an image on at least one a portion of at least one of the plurality of interior side walls, the image representing a weather condition currently present in an exterior environment surrounding a structure within which the elevator car is disposed.

Elevator car wall imaging system and method

The present invention relates to an opening leaf upper module of this type particularly comprising a rigid frame and a flexible weather strip. The method of manufacturing an opening leaf upper module according to the invention, comprising a molded frame based on at least one thermoplastic polymer and a molded weather strip secured to the frame and based on at least one elastomer, comprises a step whereby a moving-platen mold or alternatively transfer molding is used to perform multiple-shot injection molding of materials that are intended to form the frame and the strip which are injected in succession, the elastomer being a thermoplastic elastomer compatible with this thermoplastic polymer, so as to obtain the module formed as a single piece. For preference, the strip comprises a continuous wiping lip for wiping the glass panel and an interface lip for interfacing with the bodywork of the vehicle, and the frame has a longitudinal hollow.
