An elevator door interlock incorporates cast parts thereby drastically reducing the number of parts required for assembly. Other elements are also incorporated to further reduce complexity in manufacturing, servicing, and configuration.

Elevator door interlock

Sensor systems and methods are disclosed, including first and second sensing elements element co-located on a leadframe structure with respect to a particular target. In general, target-specific sensing applications can be determined by varying the distance between the first and second sensing elements on the leadframe structure with respect to a common datum point thereof in order to provide speed and direction detection data from the first and second sensing elements with respect to the particular target.

Quadrature sensor systems and methods

A Hall-effect sensor apparatus, system and method. In general, a substrate having a surface can be provided. A plurality of Hall-effect sensing elements can then be configured upon the substrate, such that the centerline of a sensing plane associated with the plurality of Hall-effect sensing elements is located towards the surface of substrate, which results in a reduction of the distance between the centerline of the plane of the plurality of Hall-effect sensing elements and an axis of rotation of an associated bias magnet, thereby optimizing the location of the plurality of Hall-effect sensing elements and minimizing sensitivity to misposition and an increase in sensing accuracy.
