Monitoring of supporting means in elevator systems

摘要

The invention relates to supporting means for an elevator system comprising a plurality of tension-bearing elements arranged parallel to each other and a jacket. The tension-bearing elements are surrounded by the jacket, wherein the tension-bearing elements extend along a longitudinal axis of the supporting means. The jacket is at least partially removed from the tension-bearing elements in a segment of the longitudinal axis of the supporting means. Contact elements for electrically contacting the tension-bearing elements are fastened to the tension-bearing elements in said segment.
