Description

The present invention relates generally to elevator and elevator systems moving along a rail attached to the outside of a building. The rail device can have two ropes for raising or lowering two elevators. The lifting system may include two cabins, a combination of a lifting block and a boom lift crane. The present invention also relates to a combined lifting unit with a jib crane moving along a rail attached to the outside of a building for use on high-rise structures.

The lifting system can have two cabins, a combined lifting unit, a jib crane and an elevator. Different rail grab systems can be used. The lifting unit may have a self-contained drive for moving up and down the rail independently, or ropes may be used to lift and lower the lifting unit. A rail section can be installed on a building with a lifting block mounted on it, which is connected to other rail sections, or the lifting block can be mounted on the rail with the help of rotating devices. The lifting unit can be permanently mounted on a building rail or transported to a building. The jib crane may have fire fighting equipment with access to all parts of the building. The present invention also relates to two lifting blocks on such rails with a corridor between them, used as a mobile platform for extinguishing a fire, emergency rescue, construction and maintenance of a building.

The invention can be used to extinguish fire and rescue people, as well as for construction work and maintenance of high-rise buildings.

Currently, the vertical transportation of materials in high-rise buildings is limited to stairs and elevators. In case of fire, firefighters from the outside of the building are always concerned with the height that their ladders will take when fighting fire or trying to save people.

Construction and maintenance of the building is limited to access to the outer walls and roof of the building. For example, washing windows is often done with the help of a board hanging dangerously on ropes coming down from the roof of a building. The construction of the building is also complicated by the need for scaffolding and the difficulties associated with transporting and accessing sites on the outside of the high-rise building. Some buildings have elevators on the outside of the building that have a good view as the elevator rises and descends along the wall of the building. These are standard elevators and they are not intended for use in extinguishing a fire. The elevators have ropes and are mounted in the openings of the building to protect the parts of the elevator. Elevators usually have glass windows so that people in the elevator can view the surroundings from the side of the building. These elevators are not designed to remove a large number of people from a building in case of fire and are useless to fight fire, perform maintenance, or carry out construction work on a building.

There are platforms for washing windows, which hang on ropes attached to both sides of the platform, which hold the platform as it moves up and down the building. The ropes are wound on a drum that is rotated by an electric motor, which can be controlled by an operator on the platform. No device has yet been proposed to cover the entire surface of the building, which can be raised and lowered to reach any point on the surface of the building, and could be used to extinguish a fire, rescue in case of emergency, for construction work, washing windows or maintaining a building.

The invention uses a device consisting of a lifting unit and a boom crane. The lifting unit is designed for vertical movement up and down on the outside of the building. The jib crane exits the lift block at the right place on the building. The jib crane can hold the passenger cabin when rescuing in a fire. The cabin may have fire-fighting equipment to access all parts of the building. A jib crane can also have fire-fighting equipment to access any place on the building and can be used for construction work, window cleaning or other maintenance operations on the outside of the building.

The jib crane has a telescopic rod to change the distance between the cabin and the elevator. The telescopic bar has pivot arms at both ends. One pivot arm is attached to the cab to maintain the cab floor in a horizontal position. The second pivot arm serves to change the angular position of the telescopic rod. The swivel device of the lifting unit moves the telescopic rod to or from the building.

The lifting unit has a telescopic rod to change the distance between the cabin and the building at the other end of the telescopic rod. The swivel mechanism attached to the lifting unit serves to change the angular position of the cabin relative to the lifting unit.

A rail attached to the side of the building serves to move wheels along it that span the rail and move part of the elevator vertically along the rail. A feature of the invention is that it provides movement of the lifting unit to the building or from the building. Thus, the lifting unit can be moved to different parts of the building or transported to different buildings when necessary.

The invention uses a vehicle having a telescopic bar and a swivel mechanism that can install a lifting unit near the rail to grip the latter.

A cab or platform attached to a telescopic pole on a lifting unit can perform various tasks. She can deliver materials or workers to a place in a building during construction work. It can also be used to extinguish a fire and rescue people from buildings.

The invention also involves the use of a second lifting unit. Both units move vertically along an H-shaped rail attached to the wall of a building. The rail has a channel for the passage of two separate ropes connected to two separate carriages moving along the channel serving for lifting and lowering the lifting blocks along the rail. The rail is covered by wheels fixed to the lifting unit and serves to stabilize its movement.

The wheels can be mounted on pivot rods that temporarily attach the lift block to the rail, allowing the lift block to engage with the rail, or the wheels can constantly engage with the rail. Swivel rods can be opened, allowing you to remove the lifting unit from the rail and move it to another rail, on the same building or on a rail on another building.

Alternatively, the lifting unit can be permanently mounted on an H-shaped rail and can be moved along it with the help of gear wheels entering the grooves in the rail. The lifting unit is attached to the building on a rail section added to the existing rail on the building in order to lengthen the rail and secure the lifting unit to the building.

The telescopic bar consists of two parts, which are connected using a rotating mechanism. The telescopic bar at its end has a hinged connection with a bracket using a vertical swivel mechanism. The staple rotates with the help of vertical turning mechanisms towards the outer platform, equipped with a fence; the cabin is attached to the platform on the pins. The cab itself can rotate 360 ° around its vertical axis using a turning mechanism. The lifting unit has a passenger compartment with sliding doors to enter the cabin and a vertical sunroof with a ladder, consisting of two parts and communicating with a rescue elevator.

For safety reasons, the contact surfaces of the lifting unit's contact with the upper surface of the autonomous rescue elevator are made of an elastic profile. The supporting elements of the elastic profile are installed under the contact surfaces of the lifting unit and on the autonomous rescue elevator. For the continuous supply of working fluids, the cabin, the lifting unit and the self-contained rescue elevator have a container for storing the flame retardant and other liquids and fire hoses.

For the operational management of the passenger compartment of the lifting unit is equipped with a control panel. For better contact between the elastic tires and the working surfaces of the H-shaped rail, the working surfaces have guide grooves.

In yet another embodiment, a pair of lift blocks moving along a rail on the surface of a building is provided with a platform extending between them for access to any point on the surface of the building as the lifting blocks are synchronously raised and lowered. The platform can support the corridor, and people can enter the corridor and either walk through it into the adjacent corridor or move up and down with the corridor, or enter the lifting block for evacuation. Pairs of lifting blocks on each surface of the building can be raised and lowered together with each other or used individually for rescue operations. Other lifting units or elevators with mounted cranes can also be used in conjunction with pairs of lifting units with a platform and a corridor between them during rescue, extinguishing a fire, construction works or building maintenance.

The invention uses the functional compartment of the building, in which a sliding frame is installed, connected with jacks; with the help of these jacks the frame can slide outside the building and vice versa. Smooth and safe sliding of the frame is provided by support wheels, which slide along guide rails mounted on the surfaces of the functional compartment.

The sliding frame in its front part is equipped with a receiving panel with left and right guide rollers mounted on it.

In order to ensure the possibility of connection with the receiving panel, the fixed section of the H-shaped rail is equipped with a mounting panel of a section similar to that of the receiving panel; the thickness of the mounting plate is less than the gap between the guide rollers and the outer surface of the receiving panel, which ensures their connection. For safety purposes, the receiving panel is provided with bevelled guide surfaces, and the mounting panel is provided with lower rounded corners; the lower part of the functional compartment has a concrete base for safe installation and removal of equipment; the auxiliary part has a movable ladder for the safe transportation of people from the passenger compartment to the auxiliary part.

In order to provide mechanized washing of the walls and windows of the building with the help of a cabin, the reverse side of the cabin is equipped with a removable frame fitted with cylindrical mechanical brushes and a profile with openings for spray arms and air hoses. To facilitate the removal and installation of a removable frame, this frame is equipped with installation handles.

High-rise buildings are dangerous in case of fire, since fire-fighting equipment can only be used on the lower floors: stairs, crane beams and other equipment have the limits to reach the upper floors.

An additional danger is that internal elevators cannot be used in case of fire, since people can be locked inside elevators or exposed to smoke. Consequently, it is very difficult to evacuate people from a high-rise building during a fire, to save people locked in elevators, or to fight fire.

In high-rise buildings, it is difficult to gain access to the surface of the building from the outside on the upper floors. In particular, access to the surface of buildings during a fire is necessary so that firefighters can

- 4 008405 fight fire and save people on the upper floors.

In addition, it is useful to have equipment on the building to access the exterior surface for window cleaning and building maintenance. This equipment can also be used in construction activities to feed materials and workers to places on the outside of the building or to access the upper floors and the roof during construction activities.

The invention includes a lifting unit for moving in a vertical direction up and down along the outside of the building and a jib crane for moving the crane boom to a desired location on the building. The jib crane can support the passenger cabin when rescuing people in a fire. It may also have fire protection equipment to access all parts of the building. The crane is used to feed the cabin to any point on the surface of the building when extinguishing a fire and rescuing people in the building.

This system allows you to transfer or evacuate people directly from the cabin of the lifting unit and to the autonomous rescue elevator (and back), and from the lifting block to the autonomous rescue elevator (and back).

Another feature of the lifting unit is to provide access to the outside of the building, which can be used to increase the number of people who can be saved and provides better access to the surface of the building in case of an emergency or to maintain the building.

The ropes can be used for lifting and lowering the lifting unit along a rail attached to the outer wall of a building. The ropes facilitate the cabin of the lifting unit, since the traction motor, when using ropes, can be installed in the building, and not on the lifting unit itself.

In addition, a second lift block can be added, moving along the rail along with the main lift block and jib crane to increase the capacity of the vehicle in an emergency in order to save more people in a shorter period of time.

As shown in FIG. 1, the invention includes a rail 1 attached to the outer surface of a building 2, and a lifting block or lifting blocks 3 and 4 attached to the rail 1 for moving up and down along the outside of the building 2. The rail 1 on the side of the building 2 may be in the form of H -shaped beam, shaped rail, console or any other support. The rail 1 may have a high friction surface 26 for interacting with the wheels 27 of the lifting unit 3. As shown in the figures, the rail 1 has a friction surface 26 meshing with the wheels 27 with elastic tires for gripping the rail 1 in the central part H-shaped forms to prevent movement along the rail from left to right relative to building 2. The wheels are mounted on frames 53 mounted on retractable consoles 54. Consoles 54 rotate on trunnions and can be opened and closed using hydraulic cylinders 56. К When console 54 is open, lift unit 2 can be removed from rail 1. When console 54 is pressed tightly against rail 1, lift unit 3 is attached to rail 1. Base of the shaped rail is attached to building 2. When lift unit 3 is connected to rail 1, additional the wheels on the rods 54 rotate 90 ° to the first set of wheels that have tires that engage with the inner surface of the rail head 1. Additional wheels with tires engage with the outer surface of the rail head 1. Wheels inside and outside the rail head 1 ayutsya clamping device 56 connected to the telescopic beam 58 to clamp assembly 86 and attached to the rail 1. Wheel assembly 86 has an internal combustion engine or electric motor for transmitting torque to the wheels for movement of the lifting unit 3 along the rail 1.

The guides 30 in the form of holes in the rail 1 come into contact with the wheels, for example with gear wheels 31, the teeth of which enter the holes in the rail 1 and engage tightly with the rail. To stop the lifting unit 3 in an emergency, the brake 60 can be used. The brake is actuated by the handle of the brake 61 in the cabin of the lifting unit 3, which is connected to the brake cable 62. In some embodiments, the gears 31 can be used as drive wheels.

The building 2 on the roof has an engine room 5 in which a lifting mechanism is placed, which has engines 7 and 8 for rotating two separate drums 9. Two ropes 35 and 10 are wound on the drums 9 for lifting or lowering the lifting unit 3 or 4, respectively.

Lifting unit 4 is stored in compartment 5 when not in use. It is aligned with emergency exits 11 on the outside of building 2 to evacuate people in an emergency, for example in case of a fire.

Spring dampers 12 at the base of the rail 1 provide a smooth stop for the lifting unit 4 at the base of the building 2.

In the event of a power outage from the network, in building 2, an auxiliary power source 13 can be used to power the engines 7 and 8 of the lifting units 3 and 4 using an electrical connecting device 14 to a plug on the rail 1.

The lifting unit 3 has a jib crane at its top. The jib crane has a turning mechanism 16, a turning mechanism 17, a telescopic rod 18, a turning mechanism 19 and a cab 20, a cabin with a platform or only a platform. On the cab or platform 20 can accommodate

- 5 008405 fire 23 with fire-fighting equipment 22. Cab 20 can rotate when turning mechanism 24. The crane can move the cab 20 to any desired position along the surface of building 2 by combining the movement of the lifting unit 3 up or down with the movement of the boom crane. This uses a rotary mechanism 16 to rotate the telescopic rod 18 to the desired angle. And then, by pushing or pulling in the telescopic rod 18, the car 20 is set to the desired position near the building 2. The swivel mechanism 17 can move the car 20 to the building 2 or move it away from the building. The rotary mechanism 24 can rotate the cabin 20 to align the doors in the cabin with the building or to provide the desired position of the fire fighting equipment in relation to the building. Cab 20 can be used to rescue people who cannot reach emergency exits 11.

Although the description discloses telescopic rods, any type of cantilever actuator can be used, for example, rails and wheels, providing movement of the cantilever. The cab can be operated manually or automatically. Fire fighting equipment can be remotely controlled from the ground. Detectors, cameras, microphones, smoke detectors, and other devices can be used in the cockpit to detect flames from the outside of the building and help rescue people trapped in this building.

The cab of the lifting unit 3 can be of various types for various applications. When the cabin serves to extinguish a fire, it may have fire hoses, heat sensors and fire resistant walls. She may have a door in the direction of the building for the rescue and evacuation of people who are unable to exit the high-rise building. The cabin can also be used as a working platform for workers during construction work in a building. The cabin can also be replaced with a platform or support device like a hook for feeding materials into a building during construction work. Such a device would be useful for installing or cleaning windows or installing panels on the outside of buildings.

Rail 1 can be attached to building 2 during construction of the building or it can be added to an existing building. The rail 1 may have expansion joints 25 between the rail sections 1. The expansion joints 25 may be made of an alloy or refractory material that has a low coefficient of expansion at high temperature. The rail on the outside of the building provides transportation of the lifting unit on the outside of the building at some distance from fire and smoke. The cab can be moved away from the danger zone. The cabin can be placed near the wall of the building or at the top of the building.

FIG. 2 shows a vertical column or rail 1 of an H-shaped section, which is intended for use with lifting blocks 3, 4. Rail 1 has a friction coating 26 for better contact with tires 27 on lifting blocks 3 and 4. Channel 28 for a power cable in rail 1 allows you to apply electricity to the roof via cable 29 to power the engines 7 and 8. The guides 30 on the outer surface of the rail 1 serve to guide the movement of the wheels 27 or gear wheels 31 on the lifting blocks 3 and 4 so that the teeth 76 engage with the rail 1 and hold lifting b The locks 3, 4 in an even position on the rail 1. On the rail 1, lamps 33 can also be installed for lighting at night.

Rail 1 also has a channel for a carriage 34 for ropes 35 and 10 that pass through these channels. The channels 35 and 10 are connected to the carriages 37 and 38, which roll separately along the channel 34. The carriage 37 is attached to the cabin of the lifting unit 3, and the carriage 38 is attached to the cabin of the lifting unit 4. The wheels of the carriage 39 are in contact with the guides 40 in the carriage channel 34 .

As shown in FIG. 3, the lifting unit 3 and the boom crane are transported to building 2 by truck 41. If lifting unit 3 is designed to extinguish a fire, truck 41 may be a special fire engine. If a lifting unit is used when performing construction work or maintaining a building, the truck may be a regular truck. When truck 41 arrives at building 2, lifting block 3 is attached to rail 1. After completion of work, lift block 3 can be removed from rail 1 and can be used on another part of the same building or transported to a different building.

The upper deck 42 of the truck 41 has a swivel mechanism 43 for turning the swivel mechanism 44 which is attached to the telescopic bar 45. The telescopic bar 45 is connected to the swivel mechanism 46. The swivel mechanism 46 is associated with a support mechanism 47 for holding the lifting unit 3 in a position in which the lifting unit 3 is connected to the rail 1.

FIG. 9 shows how the lifting unit 3 is lifted into place by means of the support mechanism 47. The teeth of the elevator 48 enter the lifting unit 3. The teeth 48 have holes 49 that engage with the elements of the elevator 50 to fix the lifting unit 3 on the teeth 48 when the lifting unit 3 moves along the rail 1. The stabilizing groove 51 on the lifting unit 3 holds the lifting unit 3 in the desired position on the support mechanism 47, which is inserted into the groove. Alternatively, electromagnets 52 can be used either to hold the lifting unit 3 in the desired position relative to the support mechanism 47, or to act in conjunction with forked teeth 48 for beats

- 6 008405 of the lifting unit 3 in place.

As shown in FIG. 5, 6 and 7, the H-shaped rail 1 engages with elastic tires on wheels 27 in order to prevent movement along rail 1 from left to right relative to building 2. Wheels 27 rest on frames 53 attached to retractable consoles 54. Consoles 54 rotate on pins 55 and open or close by working pistons 56. Lifting unit 3 can be removed from the U-shaped rail 1 when the arms 54 are open. When the console 54 is clamped on the N-shaped rail 1, the lifting unit 3 is attached to the rail 1.

When the lifting unit 3 is attached to the rail 1, the additional wheels 27 having tires on the extendable arms 54 are rotated 90 ° to the first set of wheels 27 having tires to engage with the inner surface of the H-shaped rail 1. Additional wheels 27 on the outer and inner surface of the head of the H-shaped rail 1, they are pressed to each other by a clamping device 57 connected to a telescopic beam 58 in order to press the wheels with tires 27 to the rail 1.

The guides 30, cut in the rail 1, engage with the wheels of the type of gear wheels 31, which enter the holes in the rail 1 and thus engage with the rail 1 itself. The brake having brake shoes 59 acts on the disk 60, attached to the gear wheel 31 (Fig. 9). The brake can be actuated by the brake lever 61 connected to the cable of the brake 62 to stop the lifting unit 3 in an emergency situation by pulling the brake lever 61 in the cab 20 in the lifting unit 3 or 4.

When the lifting unit 3 is held in place on the rail 1, it can be connected to the carriage 37 by a cable 65 having a connecting link 65 at the end of the rope and placed on the hook 66 which is fixed by the cable 46 to the carriage 37.

As shown in FIG. 8, the lifting unit 4 is attached to the rail 1 in a manner similar to the lifting unit 3; the difference is that the lifting unit 4 is permanently connected to the rail 1. Therefore, the wheel frame 53 is constantly in position to hold the wheels with the tires 27 on the rail 1.

In some embodiments, gears 31 can be used as a drive. The engine room in FIG. 9 has a mechanical or electric motor for supplying torque to the wheels 31 and for moving the lifting unit 3 along the rail 1.

In all cases, the lift unit 4 or 3 can accommodate 10 passengers. Lifting units may have fire resistant doors 67 and fire resistant windows 68 and walls.

The lifting unit 4 can be directly connected to the carriage 38 without connecting cables, since it is permanently connected to the rail 1.

Although a lifting unit with motors inside is shown, a cable system or hydraulic system can be used to transport the lifting unit along a rail attached to a building. Other means of fastening a lifting unit to a building other than a rail with wheels may be used, which is not beyond the scope of the present invention.

Cabin 20 has an access port 69 for transferring from cab 20 to the upper part of the cab, which has a flat roof and railing 70. Fire-fighting equipment 22 can be used for spraying water, foam or a flame retardant. A hatch 68 in the roof of the cab 20 provides a transition from the inside to the outside of the cab.

Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 10, consoles 54 for attaching the lift unit to the rail 1 and the corresponding retractable beams 58, trunnions 55 and working pistons 56 may be missing, reducing the weight and complexity of the system. The engines 7, 8, ropes 35, 10 and the engine room 5 on the roof, containing the lifting mechanism and the corresponding elements can be removed and replaced with a direct drive from the lifting unit 3 or lifting units 3 and 4.

Lifting unit 3 is needed in building 2 in case of an emergency such as a fire or in other cases. A truck 101 having a deck 102 with a pivot mechanism 44 connected to the pivot mechanism 43 arrives at the building 2 from the side of the rail 1 to attach the interchangeable rail section 72 and the lifting unit 3 to the building 2 under the existing rail 1. The pivoting mechanism 44 and the turning mechanism 43 raise and rotate the telescopic rod 45, which extends to move the support mechanism 120 towards building 2. The turning mechanism 127 and the turning mechanism 16 tilt the bearing mechanism 53 into a vertical position to attach the interchangeable rail owl section 72 directly to the building 2 at the rail 1.

As can be seen in FIG. 15, building 2 has a rail 1 attached to it, which does not reach the ground. The interchangeable rail section 72 is placed opposite the building 2, moving along guide grooves 128 to the forks 125 on the building 2. The interchangeable rail section 72 is guided against the building 2, and the support mechanism 120 can then be removed from the lifting unit 3 by unscrewing the fixture with latch 187 from the threaded hole 188 in the guide groove 186 and the hole 186 in the forked element 186 on the holder 120. The forked element 186 can then be pulled out by the telescopic bar 18 and the interchangeable rail section 72 can be moved by handles 131 so that the holes 137 coincided with the bolt holes 130 in building 2, after which screws 136 are screwed in to

- 7 008405 to fix the replacement rail section 72 on the building 2. The cap nuts can be installed on the building 2 to close the bolt holes 130 and protect them when the replacement rail section 72 is not attached to the building. If the cap nuts 129 are installed, they must be removed before the screws 136 are screwed.

On the replaceable rail section 72 spring shock absorbers 190 are installed to ensure safety conditions during installation and removal of the section. A screw 136 is also used to fasten the corner element 134 on the rail 132 with the threaded element 135, to align and properly install the interchangeable rail section 72 relative to the rail 1 on the building 2. Alignment is ensured by the toothed rails of the carriage 92 at appropriate intervals for the driving wheels 93 on border with a removable rail section 72 and the toothed rails of the carriage 92 in the rail 1, permanently attached to the building 2. The gear wheels 93 are connected to the engine to supply the moment of force to the lifting unit 3. The gears th wheel 93 may also be equipped with brakes, at the right time to stop the lifting unit 3.

As shown in FIG. 12, the lifting unit 3 has wheels 94 that travel along rails along slots 95 in rail 1. Wheel sets 94 are arranged perpendicular to each other to prevent the lifting unit from oscillating in two directions along rail 1. Instead of interchangeable rail sections 72 attached to the building 2 at the zero mark, platform 107 can be used to gain access to the mounting position of the rail section 72 above ground. Such a device can be useful when accessing the base of the rail 1 in case of snow, parked cars or other obstacles on the ground.

Another embodiment of the invention includes a device 146 and a lifting unit 98 for moving vertically up and down relative to the outside of the building, and a jib crane for extending the boom (telescopic) to a desired location on the building. The telescopic boom consists of two parts, which are connected by means of a turning mechanism. The end part of the telescopic rod is pivotally connected to the bracket by means of a vertical rotary mechanism. The bracket also moves to the outer platform, equipped with a fence, with the help of vertical turning mechanisms; a cab is suspended from the platform. The cab itself can rotate 360 ° around its vertical axis using a turning mechanism. The cabin has inside a passenger compartment with sliding doors to ensure the work of personnel and evacuation of people.

FIG. 18 shows that a lifting unit 97 with a removable section 98 of a shaped rail and the entire removable design with a telescopic bar 99 and cabin 100 are installed on chassis 101. If lifting unit 97 does not participate in the work, it should be stored in a special hangar (fire depot). When the fire alarm signal arrives at the depot, the chassis 101 located on the upper surface 102, together with the lifting unit 97, is immediately delivered to the burning building.

As shown in FIG. 16, after arriving at the burning building 5, the chassis 101 is located near the shaped rail permanently fixed on the building, at the auxiliary part 107 of the building. After this, the installation process of the lifting unit 97 and the removable section 98 of the H-rail on the wall of the building begins, as shown in FIG. 28, 29, 30 and 16.

Installation of the lifting unit 97 and the removable section 98 of the N-shaped rail on the wall of the building is as follows.

Using a vertical pivoting mechanism 122, the telescopic boom 119 rises to a level of approximately 45 ° relative to the upper working surface 102 of the automobile chassis 101. At this point, the support mechanism 120 is held in a strictly horizontal position with a vertical pivoting mechanism 121. Then using a horizontal pivoting mechanism 168 the telescopic pivoting boom 119 with a support mechanism 120, on which the lifting unit 97 is located with a removable section 98, is turned towards building 5.

After that, the support mechanism 120 with its vertical rotary mechanism 121 rotates 90 ° to a strictly vertical position. At the same time, using the rotary mechanism 124 and the horizontal rotary mechanism 123, the first part of the telescopic boom 99 is lowered to the building 105 by approximately 45 ° relative to the vertical axis of the lifting unit 97. With the help of the rotary mechanism 108, the second part of the telescopic boom is lowered by approximately 90 ° relative to the first part of the telescopic boom 99. In this case, the bracket 109 is moved to a strictly vertical position with the help of a vertical rotary mechanism 110. At the same time, with the help of the bracket 109, the cabin 100 is aligned with the vertical and horizontal position by the vertical rotary mechanism 111 and the horizontal rotary mechanism 113. The jacks 171 are simultaneously put into action, which extend the sliding frame 170 from the functional compartment 169 of the building 105. As a result of this movement, the receiving panel 174, mounted on the outer end of the sliding frame 170, moves to the concrete base 179 (approximately 1.5 m). Such a smooth and safe movement of the sliding frame 170 is provided by its supporting wheels sliding along the guide rollers 173 mounted on the surface of the functional compartment 169.

Then, the telescopic pivot boom 119 moves to the wall of the building 5 so that the lower part of the outer surface of the mounting plate 176 comes into contact with the upper part of the outer surface.

- 8 008405 receiving panel 174.

After that, using the rotary mechanisms 121, 126 and 127, the supporting mechanism 120 is aligned until the mounting plate is installed strictly parallel to all surfaces relative to the receiving panel 174. Then, using the vertical rotary mechanism 122, the telescopic rotary boom is lowered down. As a result of this movement, the mounting plate 176 is moved to the guide rollers 175 of the receiving panel 174. The safe and smooth connection and installation are provided by the bevelled guide surfaces 177 of the receiving panel 174 and the lower rounded corners 178 of the mounting panel 176.

After the mounting plate 176 is fully lowered into the guide rollers 175 of the receiving panel 174, the upper beveled surface of the removable H-rail section 98 will be a few millimeters lower than the lower beveled surface of the H-rail. In this case, the vertical axes of both rails 98 and 106 will be strictly parallel.

After the lifting unit 97 with the telescopic rod 99 and the cabin 100 is mounted on the removable section 98 of the H-shaped rail, the lifting unit 97 can be separated from the support mechanism 120. For this purpose, the holes 138 of the elements of the plug 139 are freed from the clamps of the jack 140 of the lifting unit 97 Then, moving the telescopic swivel boom 119, release the grooves 141 in the body of the lifting unit 97 from the forks 139 holding the mechanism 120.

The support mechanism 120, released after this operation, is rolled up and placed in the transport position on the upper surface 102 of the chassis 101. (The operation of dismounting the lift unit 97 and the removable section 98 is performed in the reverse order). At the same time, the jacks 171 move the sliding frame 170 to the functional compartment 169 of the building 105. As a result of this movement, the receiving panel 174 mounted on the outer side of the sliding frame 170, and also a removable section 98 of the shaped rail with a lifting unit 97 mounted on it, move to the wall of the building 5.

After this operation is completed, the upper beveled surface of the removable section 98 of the H-rail is located below the lower beveled surface of the H-rail and their vertical axes coincide (within a few millimeters), as shown in FIG. 28 and 30. As a result, the removable section 98 of the N-shaped rail and the permanently installed on the building H-shaped rail 106 form one line with the H-shaped rail 139 on the wall of the building 105.

The drive device 142, located in the lifting unit 97, is driven and, in turn, drives the gears 93, which interact with the guide grooves 144 of the carriage 92 and begin to move the lifting unit 97 on the removable section 98 of the H-shaped rail. At the same time, the wheels 94 begin to move along the grooves 95, ensuring a stable position of the lifting unit 97 on the H-shaped rail. Thus, the lifting unit 97 moves from the removable section 98 of the H-shaped rail to the 105 H-shaped rail 106 permanently mounted on the building, and can now move in both directions along the length of the H-shaped rail to any level of the high-rise building 5.

Accordingly, it becomes possible to immediately move the lifting unit 97 to the dangerous (on fire) floor of the building 105 and to start the fire extinguishing operation with the aid of a foam apparatus 146 installed on the outer surface 112 with a cabin guard 100, as shown in FIG. 32. Simultaneously with the lifting of the lifting unit 97 to the dangerous floor, the installation of an autonomous rescue elevator 118 begins.

To do this, first assembled previously detached removable section 98 H-shaped rail. This is done in the following order.

The jacks 171 are activated, which slide the sliding frame 170 out of the functional compartment 169 of the building 5. As a result, the receiving panel 174, mounted on the outer surface of the sliding frame 170, and the removable section 98 of the H-shaped rail are pulled out onto the concrete base 179 (approximately 1.5 m). Using a horizontal rotary mechanism 168 and a vertical rotary mechanism 122, the telescopic rotary boom 119 rotates and rises to the building 105 - to the location of the removable section 98 of the H-shaped rail.

Then using the rotary mechanisms 121, 126 and 127, the supporting mechanism 120 is aligned so that its forked elements 139 are located opposite the grooves 186 of the tray 190 of the removable section 98 of the H-shaped rail. The tabs 187 are unscrewed from the threaded holes 188 of the tray 190, thus preparing the grooves 186 for receiving the forks 139 of the support mechanism 120.

The telescopic pivoting boom 119 then moves outward until the forked elements 139 of the support mechanism 120 are completely inserted into the grooves 186. Then the screw clamps 187 are screwed back into the threaded holes 188 of the tray 190, thereby fixing the removable section 98 of the H-rail. on the support mechanism 120. After that, the telescopic pivoting boom 119 rises, and the mounting plate 176 of the removable section 98 of the H-shaped rail leaves the guides 175 of the receiving panel 174.

Then, using a rotating telescopic boom 119, the aforementioned removable section 98 of the shaped rail is transported to the spare parking space near the building 5 near the auxiliary part 107 and unloaded there.

Now that the receiving panel 174 is free, you can begin to lift the autonomous rescue elevator 118.

After the chassis 101 has been used to transport the lifting unit 97 to the building 105, the section is vacated for another chassis 101 with the autonomous rescue elevator 118. After parking the chassis 101 with the autonomous rescue elevator 118 (on the free surface of the auxiliary building 107), the rescue The elevator is mounted on the building 105. The autonomous rescue elevator 118, like the lifting unit 97, is connected to the removable section 98 of the H-shaped rail through the elastic tires of the wheels 94 and the gear wheels of the drive 93.

The chassis 101 on which the autonomous rescue elevator 118 is transported (to building 105) has the same loading-unloading mechanism as in the previous chassis 101 with the delivered lifting block 97 (with turning mechanisms 121, 122, 168, 126 and 127) and with a telescopic boom 119 and a support mechanism 120.

After this, the sequence of installation operations of the rescue elevator 118 on the building 105 (as well as dismantling) is the same as with the lifting block 97. After installing the autonomous rescue lift 118 on the H-shaped rail, it rises following the elevation of the lifting block to the level of the burning floor of the building. When this lifting unit 97 is already at the required level, and it begins to be used to extinguish the fire using foam device 146, mounted on an external platform 112 with a fence. Simultaneously with the action to extinguish the fire, the cabin 100 of the lifting unit 97 can be used to evacuate people who do not have access to fire escapes and emergency exits. For this purpose, the cabin 100 is transported to the window opening of the building 5, where there are people.

Then a safe transition is made from the surface of the cabin 100 with sliding doors to the window opening using an elastic profile element 147 around the perimeter of the sliding doors 148.

Then the sliding doors 148 open, and people exit from the dangerous floor of the building through a window opening into the cabin 100.

By this time, the autonomous rescue elevator 118 has already reached the level of the dangerous floor and has been aligned with the bottom surface of the lifting unit 97 with the help of its elastic profile element 149 installed on the upper surface of the elevator. Cabin 100 with evacuated people is transferred to the outer surface of the autonomous rescue elevator 118 with sliding doors 115 equipped with refractory panes 151.

Then, as shown in FIG. 26, the surface of the cabin 100 with sliding doors 148 is aligned with the outer surface of the self-contained rescue elevator 118 with sliding doors 115. A safe transition from the cabin 100 to the self-contained rescue elevator 118 is achieved by using an elastic profile element 147 along the outer perimeter of the sliding doors 148 of the cabin 100, as well as using support elements with gasket gasket 152 autonomous rescue elevator 118.

Then the sliding doors 148 of the cabin 100 and the sliding doors 115 of the autonomous rescue elevator 118 open, and the evacuated people move from the cabin 100 to the autonomous rescue elevator 118. Then all the sliding doors close; the cabin 100 departs from the autonomous rescue elevator 118 and returns to the dangerous level of the building 5, and the autonomous rescue elevator 118 takes people down to the auxiliary part of the building 107.

This operation continues until all people are evacuated from the dangerous floor.

The present invention also provides for the quick evacuation of people from a dangerous level of a building. This is especially important when there are many people at a dangerous level or when this level is at a high altitude.

This possibility is implemented in the following ways.

Option A - passenger compartment 114 of the lifting unit 97, the outer surface of which is provided with sliding doors 115, with fire-resistant glass windows 151.

Option B - emergency exits 154 from the building, located on each floor of the building 5 are symmetrical with the vertical axis of the sliding doors 155 of the autonomous rescue elevator 118.

Option A. The passenger compartment 114 of the lifting unit 97 is activated when the cabin 100 is full, and the autonomous rescue elevator 118 has not yet returned to the lifting unit 97 to pick up a new group of people being evacuated; in this case, the cabin 100 with the people being evacuated is transported and leveled over the passenger compartment 68, as shown in FIG. 25

The tight and safe docking of the cabin 100 with the passenger compartment 114 of the lifting unit 97 is performed using an elastic profile element 147 installed along the outer perimeter of the sliding doors 148 of the cabin 100, and also using supporting elements with elastic gaskets 152 of the lifting unit 97. Then the sliding doors of the cabin 148 100 and the sliding doors 115 of the passenger compartment 114 of the lifting unit 97 open, and people move from the cabin 100 to the passenger compartment 114. All these doors then close, the cabin 100 departs from the passenger compartment 114 and returns It is built on the dangerous level of building 5 to pick up a new group of people being evacuated.

By this time, the autonomous rescue elevator 118 has already moved from the auxiliary part of the building 107 (where evacuated people leave it) to the lifting unit 97 and is aligned with it.

- 10 008405

After leveling, the hatch 156 of the passenger compartment 114 and the hatch 157 of the autonomous rescue elevator 118 open and people descend from the passenger compartment 114 to the autonomous rescue elevator 118 through the vertical hatch 116 along stairs 117.

Since the capacity of the autonomous rescue elevator 118 is several times greater than the capacity of the cab 100, it is possible to align the cab 100 with the autonomous rescue elevator 118 and transfer another group of people being evacuated from the cab 100 to the rescue elevator 118.

As a consequence of the above operations, the cabin 100 will always be in operation, without loss of time, allowing for the timely evacuation of people from a dangerous level.

Option B. Emergency exits 154 from the building are used when some part of the building below the dangerous level can be used to evacuate people: the stairs on this floor are not destroyed and free from fire and smoke. In this case, the autonomous rescue elevator 118 should not be lowered to the lowest level of the building 5 - to the auxiliary part (especially if it is a high-rise building). In this case, to save time, the autonomous rescue elevator 118 with a group of people being evacuated is lowered to a safe level of the building. At this level, the rescue elevator 118 stops and the sliding doors 155 of the elevator 118 are aligned at the emergency exit 154 of this floor (level).

The sliding doors 155 of the autonomous rescue elevator 118 and the emergency exit doors 154 from the building open, and people exit the rescue elevator 118 and enter inside the building. Then inside the building, these people descend the emergency internal stairs, and the autonomous rescue elevator 118 rises to pick up a new group of people being evacuated.

The movement of the lifting unit 97 and the entire attachment design (telescopic rod 99 and cabin 100), as well as the autonomous rescue elevator 118, can be controlled by personnel from the inside using the control panels 158 and outside using the remote control 159.

The lifting unit 97 and the entire attached construction (telescopic rod 99 and cabin 100) and self-contained rescue elevator 118 have a sealed, thermally insulated outer covering.

Lifting unit 97 and the entire attachment design (telescopic rod 99 and cabin 100) and autonomous rescue elevator 118 are equipped with telemetry equipment (temperature sensors, remote control and pollution sensors, video cameras, spotlights 160, loudspeakers, radio stations, etc.).

The lifting unit 97, the cabin 100 and the self-contained rescue elevator 118 have a compartment 161 for auxiliary equipment, a compartment 162 for storing fire extinguishing materials: foam, water, oxygen for masks, as well as 163 hoses and hoses 164.

The lifting unit 97, the cabin 100 and the self-contained rescue elevator 118 are equipped with rechargeable batteries and chargers 163. To ensure the safe and efficient operation of firefighters at any level, the cabin 100 has an outer surface 112 with a guard, a fire pump 146, a hatch 165 and a ladder 166.

The lifting unit 97, the cabin 100 and the self-contained rescue elevator 118 are equipped with hermetically closed sliding doors 115, 148, 115 and 155, respectively, and are provided with fire-resistant glass windows 151.

The passenger compartment 114, the lifting unit 97, the cabin 100 and the self-contained rescue elevator 118 are equipped with air cleaning and air conditioning systems, as well as oxygen masks and first-aid kits for first aid. The H-shaped rail can be equipped with a lighting facility to provide visual control of the entire line at night. To avoid overheating of the H-shaped rail in case of fire (and, consequently, possible deformation), heat-resistant sections 167 (made, for example, from asbestos materials) are installed on the rail surface (at regular intervals and without affecting its contour). To ensure safety, the upper part of the tray 190 of the removable section 98 of the N-shaped rail is equipped with spring absorbers 190.

To improve performance, the H-shaped rail 106 is installed in a vertical opening 98, which is located on the outer surface of the building 5. The depth of the opening 98 is such that the outer surface of the H-shaped rail 106 does not extend beyond the outer edges of the building 5.

In another embodiment of the invention shown in FIG. 25 and 26, the invention provides a telescopic bar 99, consisting of two parts, which are connected to a pivoting mechanism 108. The end of the telescopic bar 99 is pivotally connected to the bracket 109 of a vertical pivoting mechanism 110.

Bracket 109 rotates together with a vertical pivot mechanism 111 to an external platform 112 equipped with a fence, to which cab 100 is suspended. The cab itself can make a full rotation around its vertical axis using a pivot mechanism 113. Lifting unit 97 has a passenger compartment 114 with sliding doors 115 for communication with the cabin 100 and vertical hatch 116 with a ladder 117 for communication with a self-contained rescue elevator 118.

As shown in FIG. 20 and 21, lift unit 97 through its elastic-covered tires 94 and drive gears 93 is connected to a removable section 72 of an H-shaped rail.

Lift block 97 with a removable section 72 N-shaped rail, as well as the entire attachment end

- 11 008405 struction of the telescopic rod 99 and the cab 100, mounted on the chassis 101, as shown in FIG. 18 and

19. If the lifting unit is not involved in the work, it should be stored in this position in a special hangar (fire station). When the fire alarm signal arrives at the depot, the chassis 101, located on the upper surface 102 together with the lifting unit 97, is immediately delivered to the burning building.

As shown in FIG. 24, when the chassis is delivered to the burning building 105, this chassis is installed near the H-shaped rail permanently fixed on the building and the auxiliary part 107 of the building. After this, the installation process of the lifting unit 97 and the removable section 72 of the H-shaped rail on the wall of the building begins, as shown in FIG. 23 and 24. The installation of the lifting unit 97 and the removable section of the shaped rail on the wall of the building 105 is performed as follows.

The telescopic pivot boom 119 rises to about 45 ° relative to the upper working surface 102 of the automobile chassis 101. At this time, the support mechanism 120 is positioned strictly horizontally with the vertical pivot mechanism 121. Then, using the horizontal pivot mechanism 122, the telescopic pivot boom 119 with the support mechanism 120, on which the lifting unit 97 is mounted with a removable section 72 of the N-shaped rail, which rotates towards the building 105.

After that, the support mechanism 120, with the help of its vertical rotary mechanism 121, rotates 90 ° to a strictly vertical position. At the same time, using the rotary mechanism 124, the first part of the telescopic boom 99 lowers to the building 105 - approximately 45 ° relative to the vertical axis of the lifting unit 97. With the help of the rotary mechanism 108, the second part of the telescopic boom lowers approximately 90 ° relative to the first part of the telescopic boom 99. In this case, the bracket 109 is installed in a strictly vertical position with the help of a vertical rotary mechanism 110. At the same time, the cabin 100 with the bracket 109 is aligned in a strictly vertical position with a vertical swivel mechanism 111.

Then, the telescopic pivot boom 119 rotates against the wall of the building 105 until the forked elements 125 of the building 105 come into contact with the rear panel of the removable section 72 of the shaped rail.

Then, using the pivot mechanism 121 and the pivot mechanisms 126 and 127, the position of the support mechanism 120 is aligned until the guide grooves 128 of the removable section 72 of the shaped rail are placed strictly symmetrically to all surfaces relative to the forks 125 of the building 105. Before this, the installers unscrew all plugs 129 from threaded elements 130 in the walls of the building 105.

Then, the fitters manually adjust the position of the removable section 72 of the N-shaped rail using the handrails 131 until all the outer sides of the forks 125 are inserted into the guide grooves 128. Then the telescopic pivoting boom 119 moves until the back panel of the removable section 72 N- the shaped rail will not come into contact with the building 105.

As a result, the forked elements 125 are completely inserted into the guide grooves 128, and the upper part of the removable section 72 is located in the guide metal profile 132. Due to this, the holes 133 of the corner elements 134 coincide along the vertical axis with the corner elements 135 of the guide metal profile 132. Then the assemblers connect these angled elements 134 with angled threaded elements 135, screwing in screws 136 until it stops. In addition, the installers screw the screws 136 through the holes 137 into the threaded elements 130 in the wall of the building 105 until they stop. As a result of these assembly operations, the removable section 72 of the H-shaped rail:

installed with its lower part in the vertical plane on the forked elements of the building 105;

it is connected by its upper part in a vertical plane with a permanently installed N-shaped rail 106 on the building;

pressed its middle part in a horizontal plane to the wall of the building 105.

The removable section 72 of the N-shaped rail is the lower end of the permanently installed H-shaped rail 106 and has a similar cross-section. Ultimately, the removable section 72 of the shaped rail and the permanently installed H-rail on the building create a common line of the shaped rail on the building 105.

Since the lifting unit 97 and the entire removable structure (together with the telescopic rod 99 and the cabin 100) are permanently mounted on the removable section 72 of the H-shaped rail, it becomes possible to dismantle this removable structure from the loading and unloading support frame 120. For this purpose, the holes 138 forked elements 139 are released from the clamps of the jack 140 of the lifting unit 97.

When moving the telescopic swivel boom 119, the grooves 141 located in the housing of the lifting unit 97 are released from the forked elements 139 of the support mechanism 120.

The loading and unloading support mechanism 120, released after this operation, is rolled up and placed in the transport position on the upper surface 102 of the chassis 101. (The operation of dismounting the lifting unit 97 and the detachable section 72 is performed in the reverse order).

The actuator 142, located in the housing of the lifting unit 97, is actuated and, in turn,

- 12 008405 radius, drives the driving gears 93, which interact with the guide rails 92 of the guide grooves 144 and move the lifting block 97 on the removable section 72 of the U-shaped rail. At the same time, the wheels 94 entering the guide grooves 95 begin to move, ensuring the stable position of the lifting unit 97 on the H-shaped rail.

Thus, the lifting unit 97 moves from the removable section 72 of the N-shaped rail to the permanently installed on the building H-shaped rail 106 and can now move in both directions along the length of the N-shaped line to any floor of the building 105.

Accordingly, it is possible to immediately move the lifting unit 97 to the dangerous (engulfed in flame) floor of the building 105 and begin extinguishing actions using a foam apparatus 146 installed on the outer surface 112 of the cab with a guard 100, as shown in FIG. 27.

Simultaneously with the lifting unit 97, the autonomous rescue elevator 118 begins its ascent to the dangerous floor.

To ensure the possibility of such operations, first removed the removable section 72 of the N-shaped rail is installed in place. This is done in the following order: the body of the telescopic pivot boom rises to a level of approximately 45 ° relative to the upper working surface 102 of the automobile chassis 101. At this time, the supporting mechanism 120, due to its vertical pivoting mechanism 121, remains strictly horizontal.

Then, using a horizontal pivot mechanism 122, the body of a telescopic pivot boom 119 with a support mechanism 120 rotates toward building 105. Then the support mechanism 120 is rotated 90 ° to a strictly vertical position with the help of its vertical turning mechanism 121.

Then the housing of the telescopic pivot boom 119 moves towards the wall of the building 105 until the forked elements 139 are in close proximity to the grooves 186, which are located in the lower part of the removable section 72 of the N-shaped rail.

As shown in FIG. 33, the attached frame 181 is provided with locking knobs 184 to facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the attached frame 181 on the rear surface.

After that, the removable section 72 of the N-shaped rail is removed from the wall 105.

Using a telescopic boom 119, this removable section 72 of the N-shaped rail is removed from the forks 125 and lowered to the ground level near the auxiliary part 107 of the building 105 for temporary storage. The fact is that this removable section 72 of the N-shaped rail will be needed later to dismantle the lifting unit 97.

It is now possible to install on the free section of the wall of the building 105 another removable section 72 of the shaped rail connected to the autonomous rescue elevator 118.

The installation procedure will be described below when describing the next option. This other embodiment of the invention is illustrated in FIG. 34, which shows a building enveloped by fire 191. In order to organize rescue operations and provide fire extinguishing, the building is equipped with rails 192. Rails 192 serve as a support for elevators 193, which operate synchronously to support corridor 194 between them. Corridor 194 has a large floor area and serves to transport a large number of people in this corridor. Corridor 194 can be raised or lowered to the floor needed to save people. People can enter corridor 194 using emergency doors 195 in the building, which are located opposite doors 196 in corridor 194, in order to ensure the passage of people from the building to the corridor.

People can also enter corridor 194 through doors 197 opposite windows 198 in building 191.

Alternatively, people can step onto platform 199 at the top of corridor 194 at any point along the surface of the building. For security purposes, platform 199 is equipped with a railing 200.

Ladder 201 and manhole 202 allow people to go from platform 199 to corridor 194. Corridor 194 can be lowered to ground level, and people can exit from corridor 194 through doors 203.

Alternatively, corridor 194 can remain at the level of one floor, and elevator 204 can be used for docking with the corridor, and people can go from corridor 194 to elevator 204 through hatch 205 on the floor of corridor 194, through hatch 206 and staircase 207 at farm 208, and through the hatch 209 in the upper part of the elevator 204.

The corridor 194 passes between these two elevators 193 on both sides of the building 191 in the variant shown in the drawing, however, it is possible to have three or more elevators on the surface of the elongated building with corridors between all the elevators. Lifts 193 also have a corner section of corridor 210 extending to a building corner so that two such corner sections of corridor 210 at adjacent corners of building 191 meet at a 45 ° angle to form adjacent walls 211 with sliding doors 212 so that people can bypass the corner building. Based on the fact that the flame blocks the passage to corridor 194, corridor 194 can be parked on the floor to rescue people who can pass through adjacent corridor 194, rounding the corner through the corner section of corridor 210. People can also use platform 199 above corner corridor 194 for go to a safe place or can go to an adjacent platform 199 through passage 213. People can then be lowered to a safe place in the second corridor 194 or on the second platform 199, or return to the building on a safe floor and use the internal stairs to exit the building.

Corridors 194 and corner sections of corridor 210 may have interior and exterior refractory walls and a refractory ceiling and floor to protect people inside. Windows of refractory glass 214 in the corridors 194 protect passengers and allow them to see the surroundings from corridor 194 and allow light to pass into corridor 194. Corridors 194 are supported by trusses 208, which are light and durable construction. The trusses 208 have pivotal connecting nodes 215 for swiveling truss with elevator 193. Connections of corridor 194 with elevator 193 have movable metal bridges 216 and a corrugated elastic sheath 217, covering the gap between corridor 194 and elevator 193. Elastic enclosure 200 connects deposition 200 to the upper part 220 elevators 193. Doors 218 with windows 214 in elevator 193 can be opened to allow people access to the corridor 194 or to the corner section of the corridor 210 from the elevator.

The lower part 219 of the elevator 193 is a passenger cabin. In the upper part 220 there is a supply of foam fire retardant 221 and rechargeable batteries 232 for powering consumers 223 (for lighting, for control equipment, for sliding doors, etc.) and supplying power to jacks 225, in which it is used in control equipment of the type control 224. The fittings 226 are used to connect pipes for spraying the flame retardant supplied from the containers 221.

Building 191 has rails 192 attached to an external surface. The rails 192 are preferably located in the recesses 227 in the surface of the building to protect the elements and the H-shaped rail. The rails 192 have guide grooves 228 for the supporting wheels 229 of the elevator, which stabilize the movement of the elevator along the rails 192. The rails 192 have toothed racks 230 that interact with the toothed wheels 231, rotated by a drive 232, preferably an electric motor. Drive 232 raises, lowers, or stops elevators 193, 233, and 204.

Rails 192 have heat resistant sections 234 installed at certain intervals to compensate for variations in rail length due to thermal expansion or contraction. 194 corridors from the boards

- 14 008405 form 199 on the top can be used by firefighters to access burning floors and extinguish a fire using fire fighting equipment. Fire can also be fought from platform 199 or from corridor 194. Lifts 193 and corridors 210 between them can be stored at the top of building 191 in closed hangars 235 or they are stored on the ground, in the basement, or anywhere on the surface of the building. Fire extinguishing can be carried out using an elevator 233, having a jib crane 236. The jib crane supports and moves the cab 237, which can be used when rescuing people and transporting them to a safe place on the building, in corridor 194, on platform 199, elevator 204 or on the ground .

Cab 237 can also be used to fight fire using a nozzle 237 used to spray water or foam fire retardant. Cab 237 may also be used to access desired areas on the surface of a building or roof when performing construction work or to maintain a building. The cab 237 in the variants shown in the drawings is supported by a jib crane 236 from above so that it can be installed on the roof of the building 191, on the ground, on the platform 199 or on the top of the elevator 204.

Lift 204 can be used to transport people to any floor of a building 191, to the surface of the earth, or to transport firefighters, workers, or equipment to the required floors. Lifts 233 and 204 have the same guide wheels 229, gears 231, and drive 232, as well as elevators 193, to rise and fall directly along the rails 192. Lift 233 can be stored in the basement at the first level 238 below ground level, for example, in a building garage . A ladder 239 or other structure may be used to service the elevator 233 or the boom crane 236 when stored on the first level 238. The elevator 204 may be stored in the basement, on the second level 240 and have a ladder 239 or other structure used to service the elevator 204.

When any of the elevators 193, 233, 204 are stored below ground level, elevators may have a fence 241 around the entrance or a vertical caponier 242 in the ground near the building for safety. Alternatively, a sliding roof 243 may be used to store elevators and their elements in the basement.

If corridor 194 is at ground level, ladder 244 or another structure may be used to maintain or provide access to platform 199.

Elevators 193, 233 and 204 can be attached to the building on the same rails 192 in any order, or they can be mounted on separate rails to allow elevators 233, 204 to pass by each other.

In the event of a fire or other emergency, corridor 194 can be lowered from above, and elevators 233 and 204 can be raised to rescue people or raise firefighters, rescuers, and equipment to any place on the outside surface of a building. With proper positioning and coordinated use of corridors 194 with platforms 199, elevator 204 and elevator 233 with jib crane 236 and cab 237, the fire can be extinguished and people will be taken out of the danger zone inside the building. The same corridors 194, platforms 199, elevator 204 and elevator 233 with a jib crane 236 and cab 237 can be used for repairs and maintenance of the building, for example for washing windows. Corridor 194 can be used alone or in conjunction with elevators 233 and 204.
