Elevator inspection system with robotic platform configured to inspect operational and alignment conditions of components in a hoistway

Abstract

Disclosed is an elevator inspection system, having: a sensor implement; a robotic platform, which is portable, supporting the sensor implement, the robotic platform configured for inspecting and performing maintenance in a hoistway; a controller operationally connected to the robotic platform and the sensor implement, wherein the controller is configured to: control movement of the robotic platform within a hoistway; and inspect one or more components in the hoistway to determine, from sensor data compared with hoistway model data, that an operational parameter or an alignment of the one or more components is outside predetermined positioning and operating tolerances.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
