Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a safety device for an elevator door, which comprises at least one door leaf, a door frame and a gap between the door leaf and the door frame or a gap between the door leaves. Background technique [0002] Especially with smaller children, who may be inattentive and have small fingers, there is a risk of accidentally inserting their fingers into a gap in the elevator door, i.e. between two door panels sliding against each other or between the door panel and the door frame in the gap between. The width of such gaps or gaps is typically 5-6 mm, and smaller gaps are difficult to achieve because of the tolerances required during manufacture and operation. [0003] Often children show excitement about moving objects and when waiting for an elevator to arrive, they tend to place their little hands on the glass door panels of elevators that are commonly installed in shopping malls. When the elevator car reaches the floor, the elevat...
