Background technology
In order to make elevator safety and to work reliably, need carry out periodical maintenance and inspection to it.For the elevator of routine, driving and control unit are set in the independent room.This room have specific size and can not with the cage or the counterweight direct contact that move, to guarantee the working environment of a safety.On the other hand, for the elevator that does not have machine room, driver element (sometimes and control unit) is set in the vertical shaft, in most cases in well or the top of vertical shaft.And, must in vertical shaft, safeguard and check these parts.In order to guarantee a safe working environment, must take the measure that adds.
From U.S. Pat 5,727, can learn a kind of like this elevator in 657.
For the elevator of most equipment in well of routine, well equipment is restricted and only needs to carry out ccasual attended operation or inspection.Therefore, desired as relevant regulations (particularly EN81), adopt the standard shaft safety system so that a kind of relatively working environment of safety to be provided.This standard shaft safety system of abideing by EN81 comprises that the shock absorber that is used for cage and counterweight are to limit them at the minimum altitude of hoistway and the well brake equipment that can prevent the cage operation when starting.
Shock absorber, rubber buffer, spring or hydraulic damping device have been protected a specific Waiting space.The well brake equipment that starts can protect the people in well can not clash into because of the cage that unexpected cage operation is moved.The program of standard is to start the well brake equipment and close the well brake equipment again before entering well after leaving.The well brake equipment is to operate in manually-operated mode, forgets even ignores the well brake equipment easily like this.In order the surfaceman can be arrived be installed in the parts below the cage after entering well, can require the cage operation that cage is descended can these parts being tested or attended operation from well.When the surfaceman in well or in something top climbing when arriving higher parts, this can make the well brake equipment close under unwarranted situation, has formed a kind of unsafe working environment like this.
Be arranged on elevator in the well for drive system and/or relevant device, this well is counted as machine room.Relevant regulations (EN81) stipulated machine room minimum size so that the work of carrying out at equipment easily and safety (EN81-6.3.2).Particularly, should provide at least 2 meters clear height at the place, work area.On the other hand, selling the well degree of depth that requires minimum is at war with reduction laid down cost and with other supplier.These two kinds of requirements are competing.
U.S. Pat 5,727,657 have disclosed the equipment that a kind of safe working environment automatically is provided that moves by the restriction cage.As long as cage leaves shielded zone and this cage is braked, one or more brake equipment pivots in the mobile route of cage.In the cage moving process, self withdraws brake equipment once more.Switch is controlled these motions.The key that opens the door starts one and is positioned at unblanking and release of shaft door top.This will start a memory circuit so that vital circuit keeps disconnecting and prevents that the cage operation from resetting memory circuit until a key switch.
A shortcoming of this system is, when attended operation, still is difficult to arrive the parts that are positioned at the cage below.In this case, cage can not descend owing to the brake equipment of machinery.Force service personnel to use a kind of independent ladder like this or the parts climbing on the top of other object is installed in cage with arrival below of having to.This will bring new danger, that is, fall or the components hit that the moves service personnel on the ladder in well still after carrying out attended operation.Dynamic Maintenance in addition, that is, the parts of from well needs being safeguarded under the situation that requires cage to move carry out attended operation, can not carry out in this case.In addition, this safety system comprises a plurality of moving-members that may break down owing to dust or dirt.In addition, because the quantity of parts also can increase the cost of this system.
U.S. Pat 5,806,633 have disclosed a kind of design of similarly guaranteeing a kind of safe working environment under the people is present in situation in the well.Actuator operated is fixed on two pivotable posts in the well so that described post can be in extended position or advanced position.When being in extended position, two braking elements that are fixed on when cage arrives a certain minimum altitude on the cage will clash into described post.Can guarantee desired Waiting space in well like this as EN81.Safe and free height to provide one to be suitable for standing upright on the people in the well on guide rail or other structure is provided two manually-operated devices.The switch that is installed in the floor below of well bottom can discover whether the someone is present in the well.When the people stepped on this base plate, an electronics alarm bell began to send the tinkle of bells immediately.In order to stop this by ear-piercing sound, people must install other shutdown feature.
Be activated and after safety post is in the extended position place the still motion that can allow cage only can make progress at this actuator.This control setup can prevent that cage from moving down.
For this system, in service personnel was present in the well with the process of carrying out some Dynamic Maintenance operations, this cage can move up.Can not carry out the maintenance program that needs cage to move down.In addition for this system,, therefore still exist and when attended operation, still be difficult to arrive the shortcoming that is positioned at the parts below the cage because mechanical brake device stops cage to descend.Equally, force service personnel to use a kind of independent ladder or the parts climbing on the top of other object is installed in cage with arrival below of having to, this will bring new danger, that is, fall or the components hit that the moves service personnel on the ladder in well still after carrying out attended operation.
In addition, the free height that can guarantee only for standing in the height of the people on the well base plate.In entering the process of well, for example stand on the ladder, then can not guarantee free height.
