Figure 3 is a perspective that shows part of the elevator apparatus fromFigure 2 enlarged, andFigure 4 is a plan that shows thecar return sheave 9 and the deflectingsheave 11 fromFigure 3 . A plurality of carreturn sheave grooves main ropes 8 are inserted are disposed on thecar return sheave 9 so as to have a predetermined spacing. The plurality of counterweightreturn sheave grooves main ropes 8 are inserted are disposed on thecounterweight return sheave 10 so as to have a predetermined spacing. A plurality of deflectingsheave grooves 11 a, 11 b, and 11 c into which themain ropes 8 are inserted are disposed on the deflectingsheave 11 so as to have a predetermined spacing. - Spacing P1 between the car
return sheave grooves sheave grooves 11 a, 11 b, and 11c. Spacing P3 between themain ropes 8 in the mainrope connecting portion 12 is greater than the spacing P1 between the carreturn sheave grooves main ropes 8 between the mainrope connecting portion 12 and thecar return sheave 9 enters agroove 9a when thecar 3 is positioned at the uppermost floor is greater than an angle θ2 at which a portion of themain ropes 8 between thecar return sheave 9 and the deflectingsheave 11 entersgrooves 11a and 9a. - Since the rotating shaft of the
drive sheave 6 is vertical, and the orientation of the rotating shaft of the deflectingsheave 11 is horizontal, themain ropes 8 have a shape that is pinched (twisted) between thedrive sheave 6 and the deflectingsheave 11. Because of this, spacing between themain ropes 8 at an intermediate point between thedrive sheave 6 and the deflectingsheave 11 is smaller than the spacing P2 between the deflectingsheave grooves 11a, 11b, and 11c. Consequently, the spacing P2 is set to the smallest dimension at which themain ropes 8 do not contact each other at the intermediate point between thedrive sheave 6 and the deflectingsheave 11. - In an elevator apparatus of this kind, since the rotating shafts of the
car return sheave 9, thecounterweight return sheave 10, and the deflectingsheave 11 are all horizontal, and the direction of flexure of themain ropes 8 at thecar return sheave 9 and the direction of flexure of themain ropes 8 at the deflectingsheave 11 are reverse directions to each other, accommodation of car dimension modifications can be facilitated, enabling productivity to be improved. - For example,
Figure 5 is a plan that shows a layout in a case in which a size of thecar 3 fromFigure 1 has been modified (reduced), wherein distances between the drivingmachine 5, thecar return sheave 9, thecounterweight return sheave 10, and the deflectingsheave 11 have simply been changed without having to modify the angles of disposition of themain ropes 8. In other words, size modifications to thecar 3 can be accommodated simply by changing a longitudinal dimension of the drivingmachine unit 14. - Since the driving
machine 5, thecar return sheave 9, thecounterweight return sheave 10, and the deflectingsheave 11 are unitized as a drivingmachine unit 14, they can be integrated before being dispatched from a factory and can be raised together and fixed to the supportingframe 13 during installation work, enabling installation work operations to be simplified. - In addition, since the supporting
frame 13 onto which the drivingmachine unit 14 has been mounted is fixed to the car guide rails 1a and 1b and thecounterweight guide rails car 3 and thecounterweight 4 can be supported uniformly by the fourrails rails - Because the
car return sheave 9 is disposed directly below a portion of themain ropes 8 between thedrive sheave 6 and the deflectingsheave 11, a height dimension of the drivingmachine unit 14 can be reduced by reducing the gap g. - Because the driving
machine 5 is disposed directly above thecar 3 so as to overlap with thecar 3 in a vertically projected plane, and thedrive sheave 6 is disposed on the upper portion of the driving machinemain body 7, maintenance work on the driving machinemain body 7 can be performed easily from on top of thecar 3. - Now, the spacing P3 between the
main ropes 8 in the mainrope connecting portion 12 is determined by the magnitude of the mainrope connecting portion 12, and is considerably greater than the spacing P2 between the deflectingsheave grooves 11a, 11b, and 11c. Because of this, the approach angles (the fleet angles) θ1 and θ2 of themain ropes 8 are increased if the spacing P1 between the carreturn sheave grooves car 3 and thecar return sheave 9 when thecar 3 is positioned at the uppermost floor is reduced, etc. For example, if P1 were hypothetically made to equal P2, the approach angle θ1 would be considerably larger than the state inFigure 3 . If P1 were hypothetically made to equal P3, the approach angle θ2 would be considerably larger than the state inFigure 4 . - In contrast to that, in
Embodiment 1, since P2 < P1 < P3 the approach angles θ1 and θ2 can be kept small. Thus, themain ropes 8 are prevented from disengaging from the carreturn sheave grooves main ropes 8 are prevented from being worn, etc. Horizontal dimensions of the drivingmachine unit 14 can be also reduced. In addition, a vertical gap between thecar 3 and the drivingmachine unit 14 when thecar 3 is positioned at the uppermost floor can be reduced, enabling overall dimensions of the elevator apparatus to be reduced. - Next,
Figure 6 is a plan that shows an elevator apparatus according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. In the figure, acounterweight 4 is disposed behind acar 3 so as to face a back surface of thecar 3 when positioned level with thecar 3. Rotating shafts of acar return sheave 9, acounterweight return sheave 10, and a deflectingsheave 11 are parallel to a width direction of thecar 3. - A portion of
main ropes 8 from adrive sheave 6 to the deflectingsheave 11 and a portion of themain ropes 8 from thedrive sheave 6 to thecounterweight return sheave 10 are disposed so as to be parallel to a depth direction of thecar 3. Anaperture 13e through which passes a portion of themain ropes 8 between thecounterweight return sheave 10 and thecounterweight 4 is disposed on a fourth supportingbeam 13d. The rest of the configuration is similar to that ofEmbodiment 1. - Thus, even if the
counterweight 4 is disposed behind thecar 3, size modifications to thecar 3 can be accommodated simply by changing a longitudinal dimension of the drivingmachine unit 14 as shown inFigure 7 , for example. - Next,
Figure 8 is a plan that shows an elevator apparatus according toEmbodiment 3 of the present invention. In this example, two drivingmachine units 14A and 14B are supported by a supportingframe 13. That is, a driving machine according toEmbodiment 3 includes: afirst driving machine 5A that has afirst drive sheave 6A and a first driving machinemain body 7A; and asecond driving machine 5B that has asecond drive sheave 6B and a second driving machine main body 7B. - A suspending means includes: a plurality of first main ropes that are wound around the
first drive sheave 6A; and a plurality of secondmain ropes 8B that are wound around thesecond drive sheave 6B. A car return sheave includes: a firstcar return sheave 9A around which the firstmain ropes 8A are wound; and a secondcar return sheave 9B around which the secondmain ropes 8B are wound. - A counterweight return sheave includes: a first counterweight return sheave 10A around which the first
main ropes 8A are wound; and a second counterweight return sheave 10B around which the secondmain ropes 8B are wound. A deflecting sheave includes: a first deflecting sheave 11 A around which the firstmain ropes 8A are wound; and a second deflecting sheave 11B around which the secondmain ropes 8B are wound. - The
first driving machine 5A, the firstcar return sheave 9A, the first counterweight return sheave 10A, and the first deflecting sheave 11A are unitized as a firstdriving machine unit 14A and mounted to the supportingframe 13. Thesecond driving machine 5B, the secondcar return sheave 9B, the second counterweight return sheave 10B, and the second deflecting sheave 11B are unitized as a second driving machine unit 14B and mounted to the supportingframe 13. - Positions of disposition of the
second driving machine 5B, the secondcar return sheave 9B, the second counterweight return sheave 10B, and the second deflecting sheave 11B in the second driving machine unit 14B are symmetrical to positions of disposition of thefirst driving machine 5A, the firstcar return sheave 9A, the first counterweight return sheave 10A, and the first deflecting sheave 11 A in the firstdriving machine unit 14A. - An
aperture 13e through which passes a portion of the firstmain ropes 8A between the first counterweight return sheave 10A and thecounterweight 4, and anaperture 13f through which passes a portion of the secondmain ropes 8B between the second counterweight return sheave 10B and thecounterweight 4 are disposed on a fourth supportingbeam 13d. The rest of the configuration is similar to that of Embodiment 2. - Thus, even if two driving
machine units 14A and 14B are used, size modifications to thecar 3 can be accommodated simply by changing longitudinal dimensions of the drivingmachine units 14A and 14B. - Next,
Figure 9 is a plan that shows an elevator apparatus according toEmbodiment 4 of the present invention. Positions of disposition of asecond driving machine 5B, a secondcar return sheave 9B, a second counterweight return sheave 10B, and a second deflecting sheave 11B in a second driving machine unit 14B are identical to positions of disposition of afirst driving machine 5A, a firstcar return sheave 9A, a first counterweight return sheave 10A, and a first deflecting sheave 11A in a firstdriving machine unit 14A. The rest of the configuration is similar to that ofEmbodiment 3. - Thus, even if two driving
machine units 14A and 14B that have identical configurations are used, size modifications to thecar 3 can be accommodated simply by changing longitudinal dimensions of the drivingmachine units 14A and 14B. - Moreover, in
Embodiments counterweight 4 was disposed behind thecar 3, but thecounterweight 4 may also be disposed beside thecar 3 in a similar manner to that ofEmbodiment 1. - In
Embodiments main ropes common counterweight 4, but thecounterweight 4 may also be divided into two. - Next,
Figure 10 is a perspective that shows part of an elevator apparatus according toEmbodiment 5 of the present invention, andFigure 11 is a plan that shows the elevator apparatus fromFigure 10 . In the figures, a drivingmachine 15 is disposed in an upper portion inside a hoistway. The drivingmachine 15 has: adrive sheave 16; and a driving machinemain body 17 that rotates thedrive sheave 16. The drivingmachine 15 is disposed such that a rotating shaft of thedrive sheave 16 is vertical (or nearly vertical). The driving machinemain body 17 has a motor that rotates thedrive sheave 16; and a brake that brakes the rotation of thedrive sheave 16. - A long, slender hoisting machine in which an axial dimension is greater than a dimension that is perpendicular to an axial direction is used as the driving
machine 15. In addition, the drivingmachine 15 is disposed outside a region of thecar 3 in a vertically projected plane. Specifically, the driving machinemain body 17 is disposed in a gap between a side surface on an opposite side of thecar 3 from thecounterweight 4 and a hoistway wall in the vertically projected plane. Thedrive sheave 16 is disposed on an upper portion of the driving machinemain body 17. In other words, thedrive sheave 16 faces a hoistway ceiling. - The driving
machine 15, acar return sheave 9, acounterweight return sheave 10, and a deflectingsheave 11 are unitized as a drivingmachine unit 14, and are mounted to a common rectangular supportingframe 13. The rest of the configuration is similar to that ofEmbodiment 1. - In an elevator apparatus of this kind, size modifications to the
car 3 can be accommodated simply by changing a longitudinal dimension of the drivingmachine unit 14, and overall dimensions of the elevator apparatus can be reduced. - Moreover, in the above examples, constructions in which the supporting
frame 13 is supported by theguide rails frame 13 may also be supported by building beams, etc. - The
main ropes 8 may be ropes that have circular cross sections, or may also be belt-shaped ropes. - In addition, the rotating shafts of the drive sheaves do not need to be perfectly vertical, and may be inclined to a certain extent (less than 30 degrees relative to a vertical line, for example).
- In the above examples, elevator apparatuses that use a one-to-one (1:1) roping method have been shown, but are not limited to this, and a two-to-one (2:1) roping method can also be adopted, for example, by disposing a car suspension sheave on an upper portion of the
car 3 and disposing a counterweight suspension sheave on an upper portion of thecounterweight 4.
