Abstract
An elevator car has a balustrade arranged on a roof of the elevator car, wherein the balustrade includes posts, that are attached on a horizontal upper side of the roof, and post-connecting crossmembers. For each post, a docking element is arranged on the upper side of the roof, and the post can be docked on the docking element. The docking element has form-fitting elements in the form of fingers for accommodating the post in a form-fitting manner and the post has slots or apertures, that are complementary to the fingers, the fingers engaging in the slots or the apertures. The docking element is a flattened component made up of two stacked plates and is screwed to the roof. The balustrade is secured by obliquely running supporting profiles extending between the handrail and the roof.
