Abstract

An elevator car includes a car floor; a movable ceiling, which is pivotable between a normal operating position, in which the movable ceiling extends substantially horizontally and a maintenance position, in which the movable ceiling extends into an interior space of the elevator car; a working platform movably attached to the movable ceiling. The working platform is pivotable between a storage position, in which the working platform extends basically parallel to the movable ceiling, and a working position, in which the working platform extends transversely from the movable ceiling; and at least one foldable leg attached to the working platform. The at least one foldable leg is foldable between a storage configuration, in which the at least one foldable leg extends substantially parallel to the working platform, and a working configuration, in which the at least one foldable leg extends transversely from the working platform for supporting the working platform.
