Electronic safety actuator for lifting a safety wedge of an elevator

An electronic safety actuation device for braking an elevator car comprising:

• a safety brake having a movable member movable between a non-braking position and a braking position;
• a first electronic safety actuator operably coupled to the movable member of the safety brake via a first link member;
• a second electronic safety actuator operably coupled to the movable member of the safety brake via a second link member;
• wherein operation of the first electronic safety actuator applies a force to the first link member to move the movable member from the non-braking position to the braking position and operation of the second electronic safety actuator applies a force to the second link member to move the movable member from the non-braking position to the braking position.
