Abstract
In an elevator apparatus, a control panel is disposed below a lowermost movement position of a proximity switch projecting from a car. The control panel is mounted on a hoistway wall through a mounting bracket at a position which is overlapped by a cross-section of the proximity switch projected in the ascending and descending directions of the car. Namely, the control panel is mounted by utilizing the space below the movement range of the proximity switch. Also, a gap is present between the surface of the hoistway wall and the control panel by the mounting bracket.
