Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method as defined in the preamble of claim 1 and to an elevator as defined in the preamble of claim 6.
  • elevators are often needed during the construction stage before the building has been completed. Elevators are needed e.g. for construction-time use to allow the constructors to reach as high levels in the building as possible by elevator. Similarly, when the lower floors of a building are completed before the upper floors, the elevators must be available for use by the people already using the completed floors. As the construction work is progressing, the elevators have to be able to serve floors as high up as possible.
  • a prior-art solution for this type of construction-time use is the so-called jump-lift, wherein the hoisting height of the elevator is increased in steps of one or more floor levels each time when the construction work has reached a sufficient height relative to the previous jump.
  • the elevator machine room is removed upwards by the above-mentioned number of floors and all the components dependent on the hoisting height, such as car cables, overspeed governor ropes and other components mounted in the shaft, electric equipment in the shaft, shaft cables, compensation ropes etc. are extended to cover the height of the entire completed shaft.
  • the machine room has been lifted by using the building's own construction hoist, among other things.
  • the problem in this case is that the elevator installation is dependent on the use of the construction hoist.
  • the construction hoist may be needed elsewhere on the building site at the same time, in which case the hoist will not be available for use at the desired time or for a time long enough. Likewise, it may be very difficult to get an opportunity to utilize the construction hoist for temporary needs.
  • the US 2,298,462 discloses an elevator which is designed for the use in a scaffolding tower.
  • This elevator comprises a hoisting device which is securd via channel support members to the scaffold tower of the building under construction.
  • This solution necessitates a scaffolding tower to realise the elevator.
  • this solution can only be used for building sites in a very early construction stage. with this solution is that the thrust platform and the machine room are secured to the floors of the building already during construction time.
  • a group consisting of several elevators may have a total weight of several thousands of kilograms, which is a load too big and risky for floors still partly unfinished.
  • the ceiling between the elevators in a four-elevator group is relatively weak and can not withstand such loads.
  • the constructor may have to make extra openings in the structures to accommodate installation-time reinforcements.
  • a further problem with this solution is that the machine room can only be lifted one floor-to-floor distance at a time, which means that each lifting operation always involves the same additional preparatory arrangements and work, which together require plenty of extra construction time.
  • the object of the present invention is to overcome the above-mentioned drawbacks and to facilitate and accelerate construction-time elevator installation by providing an economical and reliable method for construction-time installation of an elevator that is easy and simple to implement.
  • An additional object is to achieve an apparatus for enabling construction-time installation of an elevator.
  • the method of the invention for construction-time installation of an elevator is characterized by what is disclosed in the characterization part of claim 1, and the elevator for construction-time installation of an elevator is characterized by what is disclosed in the characterization part of claim 6.
  • Other embodiments of the invention are characterized by what is disclosed in the other claims.
  • the main steps of the elevator installation process are as follows. After the constructor has first mounted in the shaft 1 a movable and waterproof supporting platform 7, which is secured to the floor slab of e.g. the fifth floor, the actual elevator installation work is started. First, a working platform 8 and an auxiliary hoist for the hoisting of elevator components are secured to the supporting platform 7. Furthermore, the working platform 8 is provided with slide shoes by means of which the working platform is guided by the elevator guide rails. After this, in the actual first stage of installation, the elevator guide rails 2 and the counterweight guide rails, the latter being omitted from the figures for the sake of clarity, are secured to the lower part of the shaft 1. During this stage, five guide bars are mounted one above the other, of which the bottommost and the topmost guide bars 10 are shorter than the other three bars, which are of equal length. With normal floor height, the guide rails now extend nearly to the height of the fifth floor.
  • the frame of the counterweight 11, the landing doors as well as the lighting and electrification of the shaft are installed up to a level as high as possible at this stage.
  • the equipment is installed up to the level of the fifth floor.
  • a temporary frame is built for the elevator machine room 4, and the machine room together with a hoisting machine 5 and a control panel is mounted in this frame and placed on the foundation floor of the elevator.
  • an overspeed governor is installed in the machine room and likewise a hoist 17 serving as a lifting means, by means of which the future jump lifts are to be performed.
  • the hoisting points for the hoisting rope 18 or equivalent of the hoist are secured to the upper ends of the elevator guide rails by means of a special, easily releasable securing structure 19 designed for this purpose.
  • the hoist 17 itself is well secured to the machine room and it is used to pull the machine room upwards in connection with a jump lift by means of the hoisting rope or equivalent supported by the upper ends of the elevator guide rails. If the working platform 8 is an obstruction to movement of the securing structure 19, it can be removed to a suitable place for the time it takes to perform the jump lift.
  • Fig. 1 illustrates a fourth stage of installation, wherein the machine room 4 has been lifted to the level of the second floor and the elevator car 3 is installed in the shaft on the foundation floor by building a car frame and securing the wall, ceiling and floor elements of the car to each other and to the car frame.
  • the electrification of the car can also be implemented.
  • the car is provided with a door and the finishing of the car is completed.
  • the elevator is also provided with a hoisting rope, which is as yet coiled on a rope drum.
  • the elevator car 3 is also connected to the machine room 4 e.g. by means of chains 6 to allow a jump lift.
  • a fifth stage as illustrated by Fig. 2 the combination of machine room and elevator car is hoisted upwards through one floor-to-floor distance by means of the hoist 17 and the combination is secured to the elevator guide rails 2 already installed.
  • the currently topmost tie plate of the elevator guide rails is fixed firmly in place.
  • the waterproof supporting platform 7 is raised five floors upwards for a future jump lift and secured to the floor slab.
  • the installation process is now continued by mounting in the next five-floor section the required piping and electrical equipment as well as the elevator guide rails 2, counterweight guide rails and landing doors.
  • a seventh stage as illustrated by Fig. 3 the actual jump lift is carried out.
  • the elevator machine room 4 together with the elevator car 3 is pulled upwards through five floor-to-floor distances, the elevator car being thus lifted from the first floor level to the sixth floor level.
  • the lifting is performed by means of the hoist 17, the lifting force being received by the supporting points at the upper ends of the elevator guide rails 2.
  • the load resulting from the lifting is evenly distributed on the elevator guide rails 2, so the lifting does not produce any stress on the building's own structures, such as walls, intermediate floor slabs or elevator shaft walls.
  • the combination of machine room and elevator car is secured uniformly to the elevator guide rails 2 already installed.
  • the currently topmost tie plate of the elevator guide rails is again secured firmly in place.
  • Fig. 4 illustrates an eighth stage of installation, wherein the required roping is installed.
  • the elevator ropes 13 are passed from the traction sheave of the machine 5 around the deflecting pulley 14 in the car frame to their fixing point, and similarly the counterweight ropes 15 are passed around a deflecting pulley 16 in the frame of the counterweight 11 to their fixing point.
  • the overspeed governor rope 12 is installed.
  • the elevator is also balanced by adding the required weights to the counterweight frame.
  • the required shaft components and switches are installed, whereupon the elevator is ready for inspection and operation within the six lowest floors.
  • the waterproof supporting platform 7 is again raised five floors upwards for a future jump lift and secured to the floor slab.
  • the installation process is now continued through the next five floors upwards in a manner corresponding to the above-described stages 6-8.
  • the installation work is carried on by this method in jumps of five floors at a time, making the elevator ready for operation at levels higher and higher up in the building as the construction work progresses.
