Definitions

  • the present invention has an application in the field of elevator apparatuses, and more specifically in the guiding system for an elevator apparatus, which allows guiding a car and/or a counterweight of the elevator apparatus during its movement.
  • Elevator apparatuses usually comprise a guiding system which is configured to guide the movement of the car and the counterweight, according to the case.
  • the guiding system is made up of, among other elements, guides which are arranged along an elevator shaft, usually in pairs and in a parallel arrangement, allowing both the car and the counterweight to move through said shaft along said guides.
  • said guides are fixed or fastened to the walls of the elevator shaft at certain points which are separated a certain distance, the convergence of the slabs of the structure of the building itself usually being used for the purpose of achieving a sufficiently resistant connection.
  • connection between the guides and the elevator apparatus shaft is carried out by means of parts securing the guides with a sliding character, i.e., allowing their movement in the course of the guide, in those cases in which it is required, and preventing it in any plane perpendicular to said own course of the guide, for the purpose of absorbing the stresses generated during the movement of the elevator.
  • Said parts currently consists of elastic clips or brackets connecting the guides to a guide support, the latter being the one which is fastened or fixed to the walls of the elevator shaft.
  • the brackets firmly secure the guide, preventing its movement in the horizontal plane, i.e., in a plane perpendicular to the guides, while at the same time they can allow a vertical movement of the guide without buckling effects occurring, for the purpose of absorbing expansion effects of the guides or of settlements of the building.
  • brackets The purpose of the action with a sliding character of the brackets is to prevent a transmission of vertical loads between the structure of the building and the actual guides.
  • a large variety of brackets are currently known, each of which has a particular configuration which is determined according to its application.
  • the guide supports are elements anchoring or connecting the guides with the walls or structure of the elevator shaft, allowing a regulation of the position of the guides in the horizontal plane to achieve a correct alignment.
  • the distance between guide supports must be maximized to reduce expenses of materials and assembly, whereas on the other hand, it must be considered that the reduction of said distance between supports improves the quality and rigidity of the guiding, which in turn allows using guide sections with lower resistance.
  • a first aspect of the present invention relates to a device for connecting elevator apparatus guides, which allows carrying out a quick assembly, reducing the costs thereof, which can be used in a versatile manner with different guide sizes, reducing the number of parts, which decreases the manufacturing cost and the storage costs of the device, while at the same time it allows carrying out and confirming a correct positioning between the guides in the shaft.
  • the device of the invention can be used in any type of elevator, with a machine room or MRL, Machine Room-Less, electric or hydraulic, even on both sides of the counterweight and/or the space between guide rails of the car, which allows significantly reducing the number of parts to be used, reducing the cost thereof and improving the assembly processes associated with the guiding system, which at the same time the time required by said assembly is reduced.
  • the device of the invention allows connecting elevator apparatus guides comprising at least two guides extending in substantially parallel courses.
  • the device comprises a first part which is configured to prevent a movement of each of said two guides in a first direction according to a first course perpendicular to each guide and contained in the plane of its respective base.
  • the device comprises a second part which is configured to prevent a movement of at least one guide in a second direction, opposite to the first direction, according to the first course.
  • connection means configured to fix the relative position between said first part and said second part, such that said connection means act to lock the relative position of the first and the second part when said position is already defined by its contact with the guides.
  • the object of the invention thus acts as a guide support, furthermore having the function of the brackets of the state of the art, and additionally a function of positioning the guides in the assembly thereof.
  • the device of the invention allows reducing the space occupied by the guiding system, specifically by the fixing of the guides, in the assembly of an elevator apparatus, likewise allowing reducing the assembly time of the systems for fixing the guides to the wall of the elevator shaft.
  • the guides are currently fixed to the wall in an individual manner by each guide by means of wall supports, guide support and brackets.
  • the device of the invention allow connecting two guides simultaneously, whereby the number of elements necessary for connecting guides, as well as the assembly time of said elements and the total cost of the guiding system and therefore of the elevator apparatus, are significantly reduced.
  • the guides acts as a positioning element for the guides, i.e., as a tool during the assembly, since the distance between guides is defined by the device itself, the possibility of error by the installing technician is significantly reduced, thus being an assurance in the quality of the assembly.
  • first part and the second part are integral with a support element which is fixed to an elevator shaft, preventing a movement of at least two guides according to any course contained in a plane perpendicular to the course of said guides, a horizontal locking of the guides which have been connected with the device of the invention thus being achieved.
  • connection means comprise a threaded element and a tightening element.
  • first part and the second part comprise at least one flange or clip per part, in which said flanges are configured to secure the bases of at least two guides by their flanks.
  • the second part comprises at least one flange integrated in said second part, the device comprising at least one bracket configured to be oriented according to the course of said flange.
  • a second aspect of the invention relates to an elevator apparatus comprising at least one device for connecting guides such as the one described previously.
  • a third aspect of the invention relates to a method for assembling guides in an elevator apparatus, comprising using at least one device for connecting guides such as the one described previously, in which said method comprises the following steps:
  • the advantages of the method of the invention are that the assembly time is reduced and positioning in the shaft is facilitated because instead of having to individually position each guide according to its theoretical plane position with respect to the corresponding reference, with the method of the invention the assembly is positioned according to a single reference. Furthermore, with the method of the invention the relative position of one guide with respect to the other is determined simply and unequivocally.
  • the method additionally comprises fastening or fixing said assembly to the elevator shaft through at least one support element, in which said fixing can be carried out to the wall as well as to the shaft or to the roof of the elevator shaft.
  • the device for connecting elevator apparatus guides proposed by the invention, in which said elevator apparatus comprises two guides (3) extending in substantially parallel courses, the bases (4) thereof having a substantially coplanar arrangement, comprises a first part (1) configured to prevent a movement of said two guides (3) in a first direction according to a first course perpendicular to the guides (3) and contained in the plane of the bases (4) thereof, allowing a movement of the guides (3) according to the longitudinal directions thereof.
  • the device comprises a second part (2) configured to prevent a movement of at least one guide (3) in a second direction, opposite to the first direction, according to the first course, likewise allowing its movement according to its longitudinal course.
  • connection means (5) configured to fix the relative position between said first part (1) and said second part (2), for which said connection means (5) comprise a threaded element (5') and a tightening element (5").
  • the first part (1) and the second part (2) are integral with a support element (6) which is fixed to an elevator shaft, preventing a movement of the guides (3) according to any course contained in a plane perpendicular to the course of said guides (3).
  • the invention allows a saving in time for positioning the guides (3), since they are quickly positioned by taking each guide (3) against the corresponding surface in the parts (1, 2).
  • the first part (1) and the second part (2) comprise flanges (7, 8) which are configured to secure the bases (4) of at least two guides (3) by their flanks (4').
  • the flanges (7, 8) in which the guides (3) are inserted undergo an elastic deformation generating pressure in the guide (3) to be able to secure it, although the invention contemplates any other equivalent securing means.
  • the steel of these parts will preferably be sheets with a thickness comprised between 1 and 10 mm of UHSS steel, i.e., steel with a high elastic limit, suitably folded, which allows generating a higher pressure in the guide (3).
  • the second part (2) comprises a flange (8) integrated in said second part (2), the device comprising a bracket (9) which is integral with the connection means (5) and is configured to be oriented according to the course of said flange (8).
