Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve a structure and a manufacturing technology of a complex structural rope of a lift.SOLUTION: This invention particularly relates to a rope (R) of a passenger transporting elevator and/or a cargo transporting elevator, the elevator, and a manufacturing method of the rope. The rope has a continuous load support part (P), its profile is substantially rectangular, the width of a cross section is larger than its thickness, and the load support part contains, in a polymer matrix material, a glass fiber reinforced material and/or an aramid fiber reinforced material and/or a carbon fiber reinforced material and/or a polybenzoxazole fiber reinforced material and/or a polyethylene fiber reinforced material, and/or a nylon fiber reinforced material. A long-side face of the cross section of the load support part (P) has one or more grooves (G) which are symmetric or asymmetic with respect to the longitudinal direction of the rope, and the groove (G) divides the load support part (P) into small portions (P1, P2, ...., PM).
Abstract:
A travelling cable of an elevator, more particularly of a passenger transport elevator and/or freight transport elevator, includes a protective envelope, conductors for transmitting electrical energy and data between the elevator car and the elevator hoistway, and one or more load-bearing bearer parts of essentially the length of the travelling cable for fixing the travelling cable at its first end to the elevator car and at its second end to the elevator hoistway, and which bearer part includes glass-fiber reinforcements and/or aramid-fiber reinforcements and/or carbon-fiber reinforcements and/or polybenzoxazole-fiber reinforcements and/or polyethylene-fiber reinforcements and/or nylon-fiber reinforcements in a polymer matrix material. An elevator includes the travelling cable.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a condition monitoring method for a rope of a lifting device, more particularly of a passenger transport elevator and/or freight transport elevator, wherein the condition of the rope is monitored by means of an optical fiber and/or fiber bundle (2), and if it is detected that the strain and/or displacement of an optical fiber and/or fiber bundle (2) has increased and/or the condition of same has decreased over a certain pre-defined limit value, a need to replace or overhaul the rope or ropes is diagnosed and rope replacement work or rope maintenance work is started.
Abstract:
Un cable (1) para un dispositivo de elevación, tal como un ascensor, que comprende un miembro (2) de soporte de carga continuo que se extiende en la dirección longitudinal del cable (1) en toda la longitud del cable (1), estando fabricado el miembro (2) de soporte de carga a base de un material compuesto que comprende fibras de refuerzo (f) embebidas en una matriz (m) de polímero, caracterizado por que el material compuesto comprende cápsulas (3) embebidas en dicha matriz (m) de polímero, almacenando las cápsulas (3) una sustancia monómera (4) en forma fluida, comprendiendo cada cápsula (3) unas paredes que delimitan un espacio interior hueco cerrado, en el que esta almacenada dicha sustancia monómera (5), encapsulando cada cápsula (3) la sustancia monómera (5) a prueba de fugas cuando la pared de la cápsula (3) está intacta.
Abstract:
The arrangement comprises a self-climbing installation platform (100) comprising two consecutive decks (110, 120), a machine room deck (510) suspended from the installation platform and an elevator car (10) suspended from the machine room deck. Each deck, the machine room deck and the car are supported movably with guide means on guide rails (25) and locked and unlocked with locking means to the guide rails and/or to guide rail fixing means. Lifting means powered by a power source move the two decks in relation to each other. The installation platform climbs stepwise along the guide rails by alternatingly locking and unlocking the lower deck and the upper deck to the guide rails and/or to the guide rail fixing means and thereafter raising the unlocked deck.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for transporting construction material and/or equipment into and inside a building (1) under construction, wherein the building (1) under construction comprises plurality of vertically displaced floors (F0-Fn), the method comprising providing a control system (11) configured to automatically operate one or more transporting devices (2-6, GE), including at least an elevator (GE); providing a storage (8) at the construction site of the building; and transporting into the storage (8) at the construction site of the building (1) under construction plurality of transport containers (9) containing construction material and/or equipment; storing said transport containers (9) in the storage (8); and delivering transport containers (9) belonging to said plurality of transport containers from said storage (8) to different destination floors (F1-Fn), the delivering comprising obtaining an order to deliver a transport container (9), the order identifying the transport container (9) to be delivered; and retrieving the transport container (9) identified in the order from the storage (8); and moving said transport container (9) at least horizontally to a container loading floor (FO) of the building (1) under construction; and loading said transport container (9) on the load receiving unit (7) for being moved to its destination floor; and obtaining the destination floor information indicating the destination floor of said container (9); and moving the load receiving unit (7) vertically in the elevator shaft (S) to the destination floor of said transport container (9); and unloading said transport container (9) from the load receiving unit (7) to the destination floor of said transport container (9). The invention also relates to a method for constructing a building and an arrangement for transporting construction material, which implement the method for transporting construction material and/or equipment into and inside a building (1) under construction.
Abstract:
Abstract The invention relates to a method for modernizing an elevator system, which elevator system comprises a first elevator (1) comprising a first car (2) in a first hoistway (3), a second elevator (4), comprising a second car (5) in a second hoistway (6), the method comprising using the first and second car (2,5) for transporting passengers and/or goods between vertically displaced floors of a building (7), and thereafter removing the first elevator car from use for transporting passengers and/or goods between vertically displaced floors, and thereafter installing a construction time elevator (8) into the lower end of the first hoistway (3), the traveling zone (Z3) of the car (9) of the construction time elevator (8) covering only partially the height of the first hoistway (3); and thereafter using the car (9) of the construction time elevator (8) and the second car (5) simultaneously for transporting passengers and/or goods between vertically displaced floors of the building (7), during which using the method comprises performing construction work in the first hoistway (3) above the traveling zone (Z3) of the car (9) of the construction time elevator (8); and thereafter changing the traveling zone (Z3) of the car (9) of the construction time elevator (8) to extend higher (Z5) in the hoistway (3), and thereafter using the car (9) of the construction time elevator (8) and the second car (5) simultaneously for transporting passengers and/or goods between vertically displaced floors, during which using the method comprises performing construction work in the first hoistway (3) above the traveling zone (Z5) of the car (9) of the construction time elevator.
