    摘要: A measuring tape arrangement is used in an elevator system for determining a position of an elevator car along a travel path. The measuring tape arrangement has a one-piece measuring tape arranged along the travel path, wherein varying location information is stored along the measuring tape, by which information a current position of the car relative to the measuring tape can be determined, and a retaining structure arranged at an upper end of the travel path on which structure the measuring tape is fastened by a fastening device at a fixed position relative to the travel path. A receiving device receiving a measuring tape supply is arranged on the retaining structure, wherein a measuring tape piece of the measuring tape supply can arranged along an extension portion when the travel path is extended upwards by one extension portion.

    摘要: An elevator system for a building, wherein an elevator shaft becomes taller as the building height increases during a construction phase, includes a self-moving construction-phase elevator car guided on a guide rail section(s) for conveying persons or goods during the construction phase, an assembly platform arranged above the car from which the guide rail section is elongated upwards in a rail assembly phase, an upper protection platform temporarily fixed in the elevator shaft on which the assembly platform is suspended via a cable-based lifting device or is suspended in the rail assembly phase, a lower protection platform, wherein the assembly platform is moved vertically between the upper platform and the lower platform by the lifting device during the rail assembly phase, and a docking device temporarily suspending the car on the lower platform to secure the car for evacuations, the docking device connecting the car to the lifting device.

    摘要: A method for constructing an elevator system in a building includes performing at least one lifting operation to adapt a usable lifting height of the elevator system to an increasing height of the building. A drive platform supporting an elevator drive machine and, by a flexible support, an elevator car and a counterweight is raised during the lifting operation. A difference between an elevator-car-side support weight and a counterweight-side support weight is substantially compensated by a compensating tension device guided from a bottom side of the elevator car to a bottom side of the counterweight by a deflecting device including two roller assemblies having deflecting rollers forming a compensating tension loop. A distance between the roller assemblies is reduced before and/or during the lifting operation such that an amount of the compensating tension device required for the performance of the lifting operation is released from the compensating tension loop.

    摘要: A climbing elevator system has an elevator shaft and an elevator car, a lifting platform, and a supporting device, wherein, in the course of different construction phases of a building, the lifting platform can be anchored at various positions within the elevator shaft. A protective roof is arranged above components of the lifting platform that are to be protected, such as a drive machine. The protective roof has a central roof structure and a peripheral flank structure that has flank walls fixed to the lateral edges of the central roof structure and project outwardly from the central roof structure at an angle with respect to the horizontal. Because of the inclined arrangement of the flank walls, the flank structure can better withstand falling objects and better protect components located underneath. Cantilevered edge regions of the flank walls can be supported on side walls of the elevator shaft.

    摘要: An elevator system arranged in an elevator shaft of a building in the construction phase grows with the building using a lifting process. The system includes a machine platform with an elevator drive machine and an elevator car suspended on the machine platform by a carrier. The elevator car is raised during the lifting process by a lifting device. The elevator system also includes an assembly platform that can be mechanically moved in relation to the machine platform along the elevator shaft. The lifting device includes a drive arranged on the machine platform and is also used to move the assembly platform.
