Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for preventing an impermissibly high travel speed of the load-receiving means of an elevator.
  • Conventional lifts are equipped with a safety gear which, if the travel speed of the load handling device exceeds a defined speed limit, is activated by a speed limiter and brakes and stops the load handling device with the maximum delay.
  • US 6,170,614 B1 discloses an electronic speed limiting system, which continuously receives information from a position-measuring device about the current position of the load-receiving means and calculates from this the current speed. This current speed is constantly compared by a microprocessor with fixed programmed limit values which are constant over the entire driving range and which are assigned to specific operating modes of the elevator, for example an ascending or descending run. If the current speed of the lifting device exceeds the currently active limit, the electronic speed limiting system activates an electromagnetically operated safety gear that stops the load handling device.
  • the electronic speed limit system described has significant disadvantages. Each detected exceeding of the active limit leads to the triggering of the safety gear and thus to an interruption of the operation of the elevator, wherein in most cases the passengers can not leave the elevator before a skilled person has put the elevator back in operation or has brought the load handling device in the area of access. Any over-speeding thus results in a braking of the load-handling device with deceleration values in the maximum permissible range, which is very unpleasant for the passengers, causing anxiety and even frail persons can cause injury.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a method for preventing an inadmissibly high speed of the lifting device of an elevator, with the help of which in some cases of detected overspeed interruptions can be avoided, passengers never included in the elevator and only in the extreme emergency of Exposure to the strong deceleration to be suspended by a safety gear.
  • a specific braking measure is triggered by the speed monitoring device when a speed limit assigned to this particular braking measure is exceeded.
  • a further braking measure is triggered in each case if a preceding braking measure has not led to a defined speed reduction within a defined time.
  • a safety-relevant particularly advantageous development of the invention is achieved in that in each case a further braking action is triggered when a braking action associated with this speed limit is exceeded, or if a previous braking action has not led within a defined time to a defined speed reduction. Both criteria are monitored simultaneously, and a further braking action is activated if one of the two criteria is met.
  • a particularly advantageous embodiment of the method according to the invention results from the fact that one of the braking measures is that the speed monitoring device attempts to influence the speed control device in such a way that it reduces the drive speed of the load receiving means.
  • a particularly simple and expedient proves to be an embodiment of the method described above, in which the reduction of the drive speed of the load receiving means is to be achieved by applying a fixed stored speed setpoint to a setpoint input of the speed control device.
  • Another braking measure which can be used with the method according to the invention is that in the case of a cable-driven elevator with a drive machine and a traction sheave, a friction brake acting directly or indirectly on the traction sheave is activated, which is to reduce the travel speed of the lifting device or to shut down this, wherein previously the prime mover is turned off. As a result, the load receiving means is braked with great certainty, so that the use of a safety gear can usually be avoided.
  • advantageous braking measures are that the speed monitoring device increasingly limits the flow of a hydraulic medium via a separate flow valve or activates a friction brake acting on a piston rod of a hydraulic lifter, thereby reducing or reducing the travel speed of the lifting device to be shut down.
  • one of the braking measures is that a safety device is activated by the speed monitoring device, which is attached to the load-receiving means and, if activated, acts on rails permanently installed along the travel path and stops the load-handling device.
  • the invention consists in that the speed limit values associated with the individual braking measures, with which the speed monitoring device continuously compares the current driving speed, are dependent on the current position of the lifting device and include a reduction of the driving speed required in both end regions of the travel path. Moreover, these speed limits may also depend on a particular mode of operation (e.g., ramp travel, inspection, fault mode, etc.). This eliminates the need for conventional deceleration, control devices in both end regions of the travel path of the lifting device. In addition, so that the buffers that prevent in conventional lifts a hard impact of the lifting device at the lower and upper end of the track can be omitted or built much smaller, since the caused by the control delay of the lifting device is monitored safety relevant in the end of the route.
  • the speed limit values associated with the individual braking measures with which the speed monitoring device continuously compares the current driving speed
  • the speed limit values associated with the individual braking measures, with which the speed monitoring device continuously compares the current driving speed are continuously calculated in accordance with the current position of the load receiving means by a microprocessor integrated in the speed monitoring device.
  • the position-dependent, permanently programmed speed limit values and, on the other hand, information about the driving sequence supplied by the elevator control, in particular speed reductions in the case of landing stops, are included. This has the advantage that the speed monitoring device is also effective in these areas of reduced speed.
  • An additional advantageous development of the invention consists in the elevator automatically resuming normal operation or an evacuation mode following a successful braking action triggered by overspeed, if the type of last braking measure and the results of an automatically performed functional check of the safety-relevant components permit this.
  • a particularly preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention is that all the functions involved in this method take place using fail-safe concepts.
  • Such concepts include, for example, redundant position and / or speed measuring devices, actuators for activating brake devices in fail-safe execution, data backup data transfer, redundant data processing by several, possibly different processors with comparison of results, etc.

  • Denoted at 20 is a scale extending over the entire travel path of the elevator car 8, which has a plurality of binary coded parallel code tracks. These code tracks are scanned by a position detection device 21 fixed to the elevator car 8, which continuously decodes the current absolute position of the elevator car 8 from the binary signal states and transmits these to the elevator control 15. By differentiating the position value differences over time, the current travel speed of the elevator car 8 is calculated in the elevator control 15, which serves, inter alia, as actual value feedback for the speed control device 14 of the drive motor 9.

From detail X it can be seen that between the caliper brake 58 and the piston rod 52, when the magnet 59 is de-energized, a braking force can be generated by the force of a compression spring 60. This braking force is able to brake the elevator car 8, for example, in the case of failure of the speed control of the hydraulic drive.

  • Denoted at 20 is a scale extending over the entire travel path of the elevator car 8, which has a plurality of binary coded parallel code tracks.
