  • Patent Document 1 JP 2003-312968 A
  • a latch slightly turns in a direction (counterclockwise direction) opposite to a release direction (clockwise direction) . Therefore, a contact point is provided to the latch (according to EN regulations, an electric safety device, which allows the elevator to be operated only when the door is in a locked state, is requested to be provided. It is specified that components of the electric safety device are required to be reliably activated by a locking component.
  • a configuration is such that the contact point is provided to the latch and is brought into contact with a switch to allow energization only when the door is locked). If the switch is mounted so as to be de-energized when the door is unlocked, the contact point has a great stroke against the switch when the car door is locked. Therefore, it is difficult to design the switch.
  • the present invention provides a contact point to a latch to remarkably facilitate the mounting of a switch so as to die-energize the switch when the latch is released.
  • a car-door locking device for an elevator includes: a car switch fixed to a door hanger, the door hanger suspending a door of a car and moving horizontally; a car fixed latch fixed to any one of the car and a bracket fixed to the car; a car arm fixed to the door of the car through an intermediation of a first car shaft, the car arm being pressed against a landing vane fixed to a landing door to turn on the first car shaft when the door of the car is opened; and a car movable latch fixed to the door hanger through an intermediation of a second car shaft, the car movable latch de-energizing the car switch to inhibit an operation of the car and being released from the car fixed latch based on turning of the car movable latch on the second car shaft caused by the turning of the car arm.
  • the car switch fixed to the door hanger, the door hunger suspending the door of the car and moving horizontally; the car fixed latch fixed to any one of the car and the bracket fixed to the car; the car arm fixed to the door of the car through an intermediation of the first car shaft, the car arm being pressed against the landing vane fixed to the landing door to turn on the first car shaft when the door of the car is opened; and the car movable latch fixed to the door hanger through an intermediation of the second car shaft, the car movable latch de-energizing the car switch to inhibit the operation of the car and being released from the car fixed latch based on turning of the car movable latch on the second car shaft caused by the turning of the car arm. Therefore, it becomes remarkably easy to mount the switch so that the switch is doe-energized when the car movable latch is released.

  • a distance between the first vane plate 21 and the second vane plate 22 is increased.
  • the cam 25 is designed so that the angles of the first parallel link 19 and the second parallel link 20 are not changed after the first car door 1 is opened to some degree to increase the distance between the first vane plate 21 and the second vane plate 22 until the first car door is fully opened.
  • the cam follower 24 is pressed against the cam 25 by the spindle 23 so that the movements of the first parallel link 19 and the second parallel link 20 follow the turning of the cam 25.
