Definitions
- the invention relates to a rope brake on a speed limiter for lifts, the rope brake having two brake shoes.
- Such rope brakes are actuated by the speed limiter when an admissible speed is exceeded, so that a governor rope which is guided over a rope pulley of the speed limiter and is firmly connected to an elevator car is braked and a safety device is triggered, by means of which the elevator car is brought to a standstill.
- a speed limiter with a rope brake which has an immovable and a movable brake shoe.
- the movable brake shoe is attached to a bracket that is guided in a cable brake housing.
- Two levers, each under the action of a compression spring, are articulated on two bolts mounted in the bracket and on the other rotatably mounted on two axles mounted in the cable brake housing.
- the compression springs are preloaded between two discs, one disc resting on a shoulder of the lever and the other disc on the axle, and elongated holes provided in the levers allow the levers and thus also the movable brake shoe to be displaced in the direction of action of the compression springs.
- an actuating plate is provided on the bracket, by means of which an actuating arm of the speed limiter can move the movable brake shoe from an open position to a braking position.
- the brake shoes usually consist either of aluminum bronze (CuAl) or of cast iron (GGG). With aluminum brake shoes a good braking effect is achieved. The heat released by the braking is quickly dissipated, but the wear is considerable with long braking distances. The brake shoes made of cast iron have a less good braking effect. They are less worn out, but are less able to dissipate the brake heat. In addition, wear on the governor rope must be expected.
- the invention is based on the object of proposing a cable brake according to the preamble, in which the above-mentioned disadvantages of the brake shoe material have less of an effect.
- one brake shoe is made of aluminum bronze and the other brake shoe is made of spargo cast iron or gray cast iron.
- Particularly powerful designs also have two brake shoes made of different materials, one of the brake shoes each made of a ceramic-containing material.
- both brake shoes are made of a ceramic-containing material.
- the advantages achieved with the invention can be seen in the fact that the favorable properties of both materials can be exploited.
- the aluminum bronze brake shoe guides the heat away from the governor rope, which has a positive effect on the rope wear.
- the brake shoe made of cast iron ensures low wear.
- the advantages of further execution lie in the high wear resistance and heat resistance of the ceramic-containing material.
- Fig.l is a view of the rope brake
- FIG. 2 is a view of the cable brake in the direction A of Fig.l,
- FIG. 3 shows a view of the cable brake in direction B of FIG.
- 1 denotes a brake housing that consists of two side parts 2, 3 with flanges 2.1, 3.1 bent.
- the side parts 2, 3 are over a
- An immovable brake shoe 6 is fastened to the spacer 4 and is made, for example, of Sparoguss (GGG) or gray cast iron.
- a movable brake shoe 7, for example made of aluminum bronze (CuAl), is connected to a guide part 8 guided between the side parts 2, 3 of the brake housing 1.
- Two telescopic levers 9 each consist of a cylinder part 9.1 and a piston part 9.2.
- the cylinder parts 9.1 are articulated on two bolts 10 mounted on the guide part 8, while the piston parts 9.2 are rotatably mounted on two axes 11 arranged in the brake housing 1.
- Compression springs 12 are arranged on the piston parts 9.2. lean on the cylinder parts 9.1.
- a tension spring 16 is tensioned between a cross member 14 fastened to the guide part 8 and an angle 15 arranged on the brake housing 1.
- the cross member 14 is supported on an actuating member of a speed limiter, not shown, so that the components guided on the telescopic levers 9 - cross member 14, guide part 8 and brake shoe 7 - are held in an upper position.
