When the car of the elevator is at the landing the first gap (20) between the first front edge (9) of the car sill (7) and the second front edge (16) of the landing sill (14) is at most approx. 15 mm, preferably approx. 1-10 mm, in the area (21) of the car sill which is on the side of the space (19) into which the second connecting elements (18) in the shaft extend in the horizontal direction. The car sill contains an opening (22) and the footguard (10) can contain a corresponding vertical chute (23) at the point of the opening (22). The opening (22) and the chute (23) allow the passage of the car sill (7) and the footguard (10) over the second connecting elements (18). The second gap (24) left between the landing sill (14) and the car sill (7) at the point of the opening (22) is greater than the first gap (20). The car sill (7) comprises a closing element (25), which contains a covering surface (25) essentially the size of the opening. The closing element (25) can be moved between the open position (I), in which the closing element is away from the point of the opening, and the closed position (II), in which the closing element is at the point of the opening, forming a filling of the opening such that the third gap (27) between the closing element (25) in the closed position and the second front edge (16) of the landing sill is essentially as large as the first gap (20). The turning mechanism (28) moves the closing element (25) between the open and the closed position. |
