Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent such an accident that fingers are pinched in a gap when car doors are opened by providing flexible sheets which are fixed to the insides of front side plates at one end and are supported by elastic bodies at the other end on the front ends of car doors, covering the gaps between the car doors and the front side plates with flexible sheets when the car doors are opened or closed. SOLUTION: An elevator car 1 is provided with an entrance 3 between front side plates 2A, 2B, and the entrance 3 is opened or closed by car doors 4A, 4B. Front ends of the front side plates 2A, 2B and front ends of the car doors 4A, 4B are covered with flexible sheets 5A, 5B fixed to the insides of the front side plates 2A, 2B at one end and connected to springs 6A, 6B at the other end. As the car doors 4A, 4B are opened or closed, the flexible sheets 5A, 5B are expanded or shrunk to cover the gaps 8A, 8B formed between the front side plates 2A, 2B and the car doors 4A, 4B. The gaps 8A, 8B are invariably covered with the flexible sheets 5A, 5B, and such an accident can be prevented that fingers are pinched in the gaps 8A, 8B.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS One embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an overall perspective view of an elevator car provided with an elevator car door safety device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a car, and an entrance 3 is provided between front side plates 2A and 2B of the car 1. 4A, 4
B is an opening / closing car door provided at the entrance 3, 5 A, 5 B
Has one end fixed inside the front plates 2A, 2B, and covers the front ends of the front plates 2A, 2B and the front ends of the car doors 4A, 4B,
The other end is a flexible sheet connected to the springs 6A and 6B. 7A and 7B are brackets for fixing the springs 6A and 6B, and are fixed to the car 1. 8A and 8B are front side plates 2
A, 2B and a gap formed between the car doors 4A, 4B.

When the car doors 4A and 4B open and close, the flexible sheets 5A and 5B move in the direction of arrow A by expanding and contracting the springs 6A and 6B while covering the gaps 8A and 8B. Therefore, the gaps 8A and 8B are always covered with the flexible sheets 5A and 5B, and a finger or the like is not interposed between the gaps 8A and 8B.

[0009]

As described above, according to the present invention, the gap formed between the front side plate and the car door is always covered with the flexible sheet, so that a finger or the like can be caught in the gap. Absent.
