Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to an elevator work scaffolding apparatus that can be assembled during work inside a hoistway such as installation work, for example.
- Generally, during installation in elevators not having a machine room in an upper portion of a hoistway, also known as "machine-roomless elevators", it is necessary to perform work at a top portion inside the hoistway to install lifting apparatuses, to fix guide rails to the top portion, etc.
- As examples of conventional scaffolding apparatuses for performing work of this kind, constructions are disclosed such as that in Japanese Patent No. 2682354 (Gazette), for example, in which a workplatform is extended inside the hoistway from a landing platform of an uppermost floor. However, in such constructions, when the distance from the landing of the uppermost floor to the top portion inside the hoistway is large, a worker on the work platform cannot reach the top portion inside the hoistway.
- Constructions are also disclosed, such as that in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. SHO 58-183579 (Gazette), for example, in which a scaffolding apparatus is set up from a hoistway floor portion to the top of the hoistway. However, in such constructions, since the scaffolding apparatus is large, it requires complicated procedures for assembly and dismantling. Since the number of parts is considerably large, complicated procedures are also required for transportation and costs are high.
- The present invention aims to solve the above problems and an object of the present invention is to provide an elevator work scaffolding apparatus enabling work at a top portion of a hoistway to be performed easily even when a distance from a landing platform of an uppermost floor to the top portion inside the hoistway is large, while suppressing increases in cost.
- In order to achieve the above object, according to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided an elevator work scaffolding apparatus including: a scaffolding supporting frame installed so as to project inside a hoistway from a landing; a lower portion work platform supported by the scaffolding supporting frame; and an upper portion work platform supported above the lower portion work platform by the scaffolding supporting frame.

- Preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be explained with reference to the drawings.
- Figure 1 is a side elevation showing an elevator work scaffolding apparatus according to
Embodiment 1 of the present invention, and Figure 2 is a plan showing the work scaffolding apparatus in Figure 1. - In the figures, a
landing entrance 2 is disposed between anelevator hoistway 1 and a landing. Thehoistway 1 is constituted by: a hoistwayfront wall 1a through which thelanding entrance 2 is disposed; a hoistwayrear wall 1b opposing thelanding entrance 2; a pair ofhoistway side walls hoistway ceiling portion 1e; and ahoistway floor portion 1f. - A plurality of
lifting beams 3 are fixed to thehoistway ceiling portion 1e. Alifting apparatus 4 used in installation work is supported by thelifting beams 3. - Two
foundation posts 6 are erected on alanding platform 5 of an uppermost floor. A metal supporting fitting 7 contacting a landing wall above thelanding entrance 2 is mounted to an upper end portion of each of thefoundation posts 6. - Two
diagonal foundation members 8 are disposed parallel to each other between thelanding platform 5 and the hoistwayrear wall 1b. Each of thediagonal foundation members 8 has : abase endportion 8a connected to a lower end portion of one of thefoundation posts 6; and a leadingend portion 8b contacting the hoistwayrear wall 1b. Thediagonal foundation members 8 are disposed inside thehoistway 1 such that the leadingendportions 8b thereof are positioned diagonally above thebase end portions 8a. - The
base end portions 8a are connected to thefoundation posts 6 by first metal connecting fittings (first clamping members) 9.Metal contacting fittings 11 that are pivotable aroundpins 10 are disposed on the leadingend portions 8b. - Two
horizontal foundation beams 12 are disposed inside thehoistway 1 so as to be parallel to each other and horizontal. Each of thehorizontal foundation beams 12 has: afirst end portion 12a connected to one of thefoundation posts 6; and asecond end portion 12b connected to the leadingend portion 8b of one of thediagonal foundation members 8. Thefirst end portions 12a are connected to thefoundation posts 6 by second metal connecting fittings (second clamping members) 13. - Two supporting
beams 14 extending horizontally so as to be perpendicular to thehorizontal foundation beams 12 are disposed so as to span across the two foundationhorizontal beams 12. Suspendedposts 16 are each connected to first and second end portions of each of the supportingbeams 14 by means of third metal connecting fittings (third clamping members) 15. A total of four suspendedposts 16 are each disposed vertically inside thehoistway 1. The suspendedposts 16 are supported by thehorizontal foundation beams 12 through the supportingbeams 14. - A scaffolding supporting frame according to
Embodiment 1 includes: thefoundation posts 6, the metal supporting fitting 7, thediagonal foundation members 8, the firstmetal connecting fittings 9, thepins 10, themetal contacting fittings 11, thehorizontal foundation beams 12, the secondmetal connecting fittings 13, the supportingbeams 14, the thirdmetal connecting fittings 15, and the suspendedposts 16. Furthermore, the scaffolding supporting frame is installed so as to project inside thehoistway 1 from the landing. - A lower
portion work platform 17 is supported below thehorizontal foundation beams 12 by the suspendedposts 16. The lowerportion work platform 17 has: two lower portion bearingbeams 18 disposed horizontally between lower end portions of front and rear suspendedposts 16; and a plurality of lowerportion scaffolding boards 19 disposed so as to span the two lower portion bearingbeams 18. The lower portion bearingbeams 18 are connected to the suspendedposts 16 by fourth metal connecting fittings (fourth clamping members) 20. The lowerportion scaffolding boards 19 are fixed to the lower portion bearingbeams 18 by fasteners such as rubber bands, ropes, etc. - The lower
portion work platform 17 is installed within a range of height dimensions of thelanding entrance 2 such that movement from thelanding platform 5 is possible. - An upper
portion work platform 21 is supported above thehorizontal foundation beams 12 by the suspendedposts 16. The upperportion work platform 21 has: two upperportion bearing beams 22 disposed horizontally between a vicinity of upper end portions of the front and rear suspendedposts 16; and a plurality of upperportion scaffolding boards 23 disposed so as to span the two upper portion bearingbeams 22. The upperportion bearing beams 22 are connected to the suspended posts 16byfifthmetal connecting fittings (fifth clamping members) 24. The upperportion scaffolding boards 23 are fixed to the upperportion bearing beams 22 byfasteners 25 such as rubber bands, ropes, etc. - The foundation posts 6, the
diagonal foundation members 8, thehorizontal foundation beams 12, the supportingbeams 14, the suspendedposts 16, the lower portion bearingbeams 18, and the upperportion bearing beams 22 may be constituted by steel pipes, for example. The lowerportion scaffolding boards 19 and the upperportion scaffolding boards 23 may be constituted by wooden planks, for example. - In a work scaffolding apparatus of this kind, if performing work at a top portion inside the
hoistway 1, a worker first moves from the landing onto the lowerportion work platform 17, then moves onto the upperportion work platform 21 from on top of the lowerportion work platform 17. It is possible to move from the lowerportion work platform 17 onto the upperportion work platform 21 using a pedestal, or a ladder, etc., before mounting a portion of the upperportion scaffolding boards 23, for example. - Because a lower
portion work platform 17 and an upperportion work platform 21 positioned above that are disposed in this manner, even if the distance from thelanding platform 5 of the uppermost floor to the top portion inside thehoistway 1 is large, the worker can perform work at the top portion of thehoistway 1 easily by climbing onto the upperportion work platform 21. Since it is not necessary to build the scaffolding up from thehoistway floor portion 1f, increases in cost can be suppressed, and assembly and dismantling are also facilitated. - Moreover, if the distance from the
landing platform 5 of the uppermost floor to the top portion inside thehoistway 1 is small, the work can be performed using only the lowerportion work platform 17 without mounting the upperportion work platform 21. - Although it depends on the body height of the worker, it is desirable for a distance of greater than or equal to 1,500 mm to be ensured from the
hoistway ceiling portion 1e to the upperportion work platform 21, for example, in order to enable work on top of the upperportion work platform 21 to be performed efficiently. - In addition, it is preferable for a distance from the lower
portion work platform 17 to the upperportion work platform 21 to be set within a range enabling mounting of the upperportion work platform 21 to be performed by a worker on the lowerportion work platform 17 to facilitate assembly of the work scaffolding apparatus. - It is also desirable for the vertical mounting position of the upper
portion work platform 21 to be made adjustable. In this manner, it is possible to adapt easily to changes in height from thelanding platform 5 of the uppermost floor to thehoistway ceiling portion 1e. - If, for example, the height to the
hoistway ceiling portion 1e is higher than in Figure 1, as shown in Figure 3, work at the top portion inside thehoistway 1 can be facilitated by setting the mounting position of the upperportion work platform 21 relative to the suspended posts 16 higher than in Figure 1. - If, on the other hand, the height to the
hoistway ceiling portion 1e is lower than in Figure 1, height dimensions for a workspace above the upperportion work platform 21 can be sufficiently ensured by setting the mounting position of the upperportion work platform 21 relative to the suspended posts 16 lower than in Figure 1. - Figure 4 is a side elevation showing an elevator work scaffolding apparatus according to
Embodiment 2 of the present invention, and Figure 5 is a plan showing the work scaffolding apparatus in Figure 4. In this example, aladder 31 is disposed between the lowerportion work platform 17 and the upperportion work platform 21. In order to enable movement onto the upperportion work platform 21 from theladder 31, a portion of the upperportion scaffolding boards 23 is removed. The rest of the construction is similar to that ofEmbodiment 1. - By disposing a
ladder 31 between the lowerportion work platform 17 and the upperportion work platform 21 in this manner, movement between the lowerportion work platform 17 and the top of the upperportion work platform 21 can be facilitated, enabling work efficiency to be improved. - Figure 6 is a side elevation showing an elevator work scaffolding apparatus according to
Embodiment 3 of the present invention, Figure 7 is an enlargement showing a portion VII from Figure 6, Figure 8 is a cross section taken along a line VIII - VIII in Figure 6, and Figure 9 is an enlargement showing a portion IX from Figure 6. - In the figures, a plurality of
pin apertures 16a extending horizontally are disposed in suspended posts 16. Thepin apertures 16a are disposed: slightly above thirdmetal connecting fittings 15 for connecting the suspendedposts 16 to horizontal foundation beams 12; slightly below fourthmetal connecting fittings 20 for connecting a lowerportion work platform 17 to the suspended posts 16; and slightly below fifthmetal connecting fittings 24 for connecting an upperportion work platform 21 to the suspended posts 16. - A
pin 32 is inserted through each of thepin apertures 16a. Two end portions of each of thepins 32 project horizontally outward from surfaces of the suspended posts 16. A dislodgment preventing nut is screwed onto a leading end portion of each of thepins 32. - A
backup member 33 constituted by a steel pipe is connected by means of sixth metal connecting fittings (sixth clamping members) 34 between twodiagonal foundation members 8 in a vicinity ofbase end portions 8a. Thebackup member 33 extends so as to lie cross thelanding entrance 2 horizontally, two end portions coming into contact with the hoistwayfront wall 1a on two sides of thelanding entrance 2. -
Pin apertures 12c are disposed on a portion of each of thediagonal foundation members 8 slightly above the sixthmetal connecting fittings 34. Apin 35 is inserted through each of thepin apertures 12c. Two end portions of each of thepins 35 project outward from surfaces of thediagonal foundation members 8. A dislodgment preventing nut is screwed onto a leading end portion of each of thepins 35. - In a work scaffolding apparatus of this kind, because
pins 32 are inserted through the suspended posts 16, even if the fourth and fifthmetal connecting fittings thirdmetal connecting fittings 15 and become misaligned, etc., the fourth, fifth, and thirdmetal connecting fittings pins 32, enabling slippage of this kind to be prevented and improving the stability of the scaffolding. - Because the
backup member 33 is connected between thediagonal foundation members 8 and the two end portions of thebackup member 33 are placed in contact with the hoistwayfront wall 1a, thebase end portions 8a of thediagonal foundation members 8 are prevented from slipping away from thehoistway 1, thereby also improving the stability of the scaffolding. - In addition, because
pins 35 are inserted through thediagonal foundation members 8, slippage of the sixthmetal connecting fittings 34 relative to thediagonal foundation members 8 is prevented, further improving the stability of the scaffolding. - Moreover, the work scaffolding apparatus according to the present invention can be used not only for elevator installation, but also during modification work, and during maintenance inspections, etc., for example.
- In the above examples, the work scaffolding apparatus according to the present invention is installed mainly on the landing platform of an uppermost floor, but if necessary, the work scaffolding apparatus according to the present invention can also be installed on the landing platform of a landing floor other than the uppermost floor.
