Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
An elevator drive motor 1 is normally energized from an AC power source 8 via an AC-DC converter 4 and a DC-AC inverter 3. When the power source fails the elevator is braked and the inverter is supplied from an emergency battery 11 to access the nearest floor for passenger discharge. If a fault occurs in the inverter it is disconnected from the motor by opening a switch contact 15a, and the closing of a further contact 15b enables the converter to energize the motor in a "reverse function" mode from the battery.
