Abstract
Safety apparatus for an elevator having an elevator car having a presence determination device for determining that one and only one person is present in the elevator car, having a position determination device for determining that the person is in a lying or crouching position and the length of time since the lying or crouching position occurred, and having a relay device for relaying a signal to a supervisory authority. In this scenario, the relay device relays the signal when the presence determination device determines that there is just a single person in the elevator car and the position determination device determines that the person is in the lying or crouching position and a specific length of time has elapsed since the lying or crouching position occurred.
