    摘要: A yoke assembly for suspending an elevator car or a counterweight in a shaft of an elevator has a yoke adapted to be mechanically coupled to the elevator car or the counterweight. The yoke has a height with respect to a height axis and a length with respect to a longitudinal axis orthogonal to the height axis; a pulley for suspending the yoke, wherein the pulley has a diameter equal to or less than the height of the yoke and is attached to the yoke so as to be rotatable about an axis of rotation whose position with respect to the height axis is such that the pulley does not protrude beyond the yoke in either direction of the height axis; wherein, when the yoke is suspended in the shaft, the height axis is a vertical axis and the axis of rotation is a horizontal axis.

    摘要: An illustrative example embodiment of an elevator system includes an elevator car that is configured for movement along a path. An elevator car power supply is supported for movement with the elevator car and includes a plurality of power sources. An exchange station near the path is configured to remove, from the elevator car supply, a selected number of the power sources that have a capacity below a selected level and replace each of the removed number of the power sources with a replacement power source having a capacity above the selected level.

    摘要: A support unit for the fastening of a diverting roller to a support structure can be used for supporting a car in an elevator installation. The support unit has two yoke beams and a bearing for the diverting roller. The yoke beams are arranged parallel to one another for fastening to the support structure. On the support unit there are at least two restraint devices that are fastened to the yoke beams and which project into the intermediate space between the yoke beams such that, in the event of failure of the bearing, the restraint devices form a stop to prevent the diverting roller from moving in a support direction under the action of the support force. The support unit is stable, is of simple construction and is of space-saving design.

    摘要: The present invention provides a variable mass elevator apparatus and method of operation, wherein the apparatus comprises an electronic scale, an elevator car, a traction sheave, a control computer, a mass storage area, a mass, a mass conveyor, a floor control panel outside of the elevator. When a passenger desires to operate the elevator, the passenger steps on the electronic scale and chooses a floor on the floor control panel, wherein the floor control panel has buttons for each floor. The electronic scale relays the weight of the passenger to the control computer, and the floor control panel relays the desired floor to the control computer. The control computer instructs a mass conveyer to couple a mass corresponding to the weight of the passenger to the elevator cable to act as a counterweight and equalize the potential energy of the elevator according to the desired floor of the passenger and the weight of the passenger.

    摘要: An elevator system which utilizes four or more independently moving cabs in each elevator shaft. The lower cabs are connected to four spatially separated counterweights at four different counterweight connection points. The connection points are horizontally shifted on different cabs in order to prevent interference between cables, pulleys and counterweights. The top cab may be connected to one or two counterweights by connection points on the roof of the cab. The cabs are mounted on two tracks, each track on one side of the elevator shaft. The system includes a motor attached to each of the cabs by lift cables to facilitate the independent movement of all cabs. Existing buildings can be retrofit for compatibility with the present invention.

    摘要: An elevator system which utilizes a plurality of independently moving cabs and counterweights in each elevator shaft. Each cab is connected to one or more spatially separated counterweights at different counterweight connection points. The connection points are horizontally shifted on different cabs in order to prevent interference between cabs, cables, pulleys and counterweights. The top cab may have one counterweight cable and may be connected to one or more counterweights by connection points on the roof of the cab. The cabs are mounted on two opposing vertical guide rails, and each guide rail is mounted at the center of one side of the elevator shaft. The system includes a motor attached to each of the cabs by one or more lift cables to facilitate the independent movement of all cabs. Existing buildings can also be retrofit for compatibility with the present invention.

    摘要: An elevator installation includes at least one elevator car and at least one counterweight, wherein the at least one elevator car is capable of being moved on guide rails in an elevator shaft by a drive with a driving pulley and with a supporting and propulsion apparatus. The at least one counterweight is formed with a hollow body enclosing a filling. In the event of a freefall, the hollow body is destroyed allowing the filling to emerge.
