Abstract:
A device serves for determining the speed of a passenger-transporting system. The device includes an arrangement of auxiliary elements and a sensing device. The arrangement of the auxiliary elements rotates, in a manner corresponding to a movement of the passenger-transporting system. The sensing device can sense whether an auxiliary element is, or is not, located at a certain sensing location. The auxiliary elements are of a first configuration type and a second configuration type. The sensing device can sense whether an auxiliary element is of the first configuration type or of the second configuration type. Furthermore, the sensing device can assign an auxiliary element of the first configuration type and an auxiliary element of the second configuration type to one another such that the direction of rotation can be determined from the order in which the auxiliary elements are sensed.

Claim (Index 15):
A method for measuring speed and sensing the direction of travel or sensing the direction of rotation for the passenger-transporting system of  claim 1 , the method comprising:\n sensing whether or not an auxiliary element is currently located at a certain sensing location, sensing whether an auxiliary element currently located at the certain sensing location is of a first configuration type or of a second configuration type , assigning at least one auxiliary element of the first configuration type and at least one auxiliary element of the second configuration type to one another when the arrangement of the auxiliary elements is rotated, and determining the direction of rotation of the arrangement from the sequence in which the auxiliary element of the first configuration type and the auxiliary element of the second configuration type, which elements are assigned to one another, are sensed.
