  • the present invention relates to an elevator apparatus in which a driving machine is disposed in an upper portion inside a hoistway.
  • first and second rope connecting portions are disposed on lower portions of two sides of a car.
  • a driving machine that raises and lowers the car is disposed in an upper portion inside the hoistway.
