  • a hoistway 1 in the upper portion of a hoistway 1, there are arranged first and second rotatable car suspension sheaves 2 and 3.
  • a main rope 4 is wrapped around the first and second car suspension sheaves 2 and 3.
  • a car 5 and a counterweight 6 are suspended in the hoistway 1 by the main rope 4.
