ABSTRACT:
An emitter and a plurality of sensors and are used to detect the relative positions between an elevator platform and landing sill. The emitters radiate energy through a reflection duct formed between the elevator platform and the landing sill. The plurality of sensors monitor the reflection duct so that radiated energy is detected. The sensors provide level signals in response to the radiated energy. A means responsive to the level signals determines when the platform is level with respect to the landing sill.
