Abstract:
An elevator comprises an elevator car, a counterweight, a drive and a support, wherein the support couples the elevator car and the counterweight with the drive so that the elevator car and the counterweight are movable in opposite vertical directions by the drive, and wherein the support has a support section at the car side and a support section at the counterweight side. The elevator further comprises a sensor line which is coupled to both the elevator car and the counterweight and which is guided so that in the case of movement of the elevator car and the counterweight in opposite directions it generally remains tensioned by a substantially constant tension stress. The elevator further comprises a sensor which is coupled with the sensor line so that slackening of a support section is detectable by the sensor.
Abstract:
An elevator includes a compensating device having the purpose of providing compensation for changing weight of a support on the cage side or on the counterweight side. Depending on the respective position of an elevator cage and a counterweight in the elevator shaft there are more meters of the support on the cage side or on the counterweight side. In the case of a small support length on the cage side, a large compensating device length on the cage side results and conversely. The compensating device suspended at the elevator cage and at the counterweight forms a loop in a shaft pit and can be set in oscillation. Provided as a remedy are, for example, rods which guide and stabilize the compensating device.
Abstract:
A synthetic fiber cable has the strands of a strand layer mutually spaced apart. With the mutual spacing, the strands of the outer strand layer can move radially in the direction of the cable center and exert a radial pressure on the strands of the first inner strand layer. The radial pressure is passed on from the strands of the first inner strand layer to the strands of the second inner strand layer. The radial pressure is passed on from the strands of the second inner strand layer to the core strand. The radial pressure increases inwardly from strand layer to strand layer. The soft cable sheathing does not act as a support between the strands in circumferential direction.
Abstract:
A supporting and drive belt including a belt body or sheathing which encloses tensile carriers. The running surface of the belt can be flat and parallel to the belt back or have trapezium-shaped or semicircular ribs and grooves, wherein the profile of a drive pulley or of a deflecting pulley is approximately complementary to the running surface of the belt. One or more tensile carriers are provided for each rib, wherein the tensile carriers are laid or stranded alternately in the “Z” direction and the “S” direction.
