A triggering unit for actuating an elevator braking device, having a triggering base body which can be mounted on an elevator car, a trigger, a contact element and a coupling link via which the contact element can be connected to an elevator braking device, the triggering unit keeps the contact element at a distance from the guide rail in the untriggered state and brings it into frictional contact with the rail in the triggered state, so that the contact element moves along a gap between the triggering base body and the guide rail, carries along the coupling link and causes the elevator braking device to respond automatically due to the movement of the coupling link, wherein the triggering unit can be mounted separately on the elevator car at a distance from the elevator braking device and is connected to the elevator braking device exclusively via the coupling link.

Release unit for actuating an elevator brake device

A triggering unit for actuating an elevator braking device, having a triggering base body, a trigger, a contact device and a coupling link. The contact device comprises a swivel lever and at least two contact elements, the swivel lever being pivotably anchored on one side of the guide rail and bearing a first contact element in the region between its anchoring and the guide rail, wherein the first and the second contact elements are arranged on the swivel lever in such a manner that the swivel lever automatically pulls itself against the guide rail under the influence of the forces occurring between the contact elements and the guide rail in the triggered state, and the swivel lever is anchored to the triggering base body such that it executes a movement which generates tension or pressure at the coupling link, so that the coupling link actuates the elevator braking device.

Triggering unit for actuating an elevator braking device

An actuation device for keeping the pushbutton switch activated and deactivated remotely. The actuation device includes a plunger which can be brought by external probing from a standby position, in which it does not switch the pushbutton switch, to an active position, in which it keeps the pushbutton switch actuated. The actuation device has a remotely controllable linear drive, a return spring and a return actuator and is designed in such a way that the plunger can be coupled to the return actuator by the remotely controllable linear drive, which is preferably driven by a Bowden cable, under tension of the return spring, wherein after deactivation of the linear drive, the plunger is pressed by the return spring into a position more remote from the pushbutton switch, thereby entraining the plunger into its standby position.
