Further, the basic support 4 is reinforced by, for example, a welding cross strut 5, and further, as shown in FIG. 1 a, the left side portion or the leg portion is reinforced by two diagonally welded outer members 6. Counters forces generated during transport and crane picking. The central and right portions or the head of the base support 4 are reinforced by two diagonal steel bars 7 reinforced in a cross shape. Therefore, on the right side,
A short cross brace 10 is formed, and a long cross brace 11 is formed in a central portion of the base support 4.
A cross strut 5 in which short auxiliary outer members 12 are alternately welded is fixed to a foundation support by the cross braces 10 and 11 described above. These auxiliary profile members 12 have no support or stabilizing function and will be further described with reference to FIG. 5, but the transport / assembly frame 1 can be folded and transported without an elevator system. All you need to do is remove the supports and struts for storage.

For example, four rollers 15 made of a synthetic material
Helps the transport / assembly frame 1 move horizontally. These rollers 15 can be lowered and raised by a hydraulic hand pump 16 provided exclusively through a hydraulic cylinder 17 and a connecting rod 18 provided for each of them. When the roller 15 is raised, the transport / assembly frame 1 stands on a dedicated support element 20, for example made of rubber. In the center of one lateral profile member 3, a support element 20
The second lateral profile 3 has two support elements 20 mounted on the outside each. In some cases, two support elements 20 are respectively attached to the two lateral profile members 3.

Further, several flanges 21 are welded to the foundation support 4 and serve to fix the vertical beams 22, 23 disposed at the upper and lower ends. On the vertical beams 22, 23, the rest plate 2 of the elevator system
4 is attached. On each side, for example, six vertical supports 22, 23 are fixed with screws or bolts, so that the supports can be folded longitudinally, as also shown in detail in FIG.

In the longitudinal direction of the base support 4, vertical beams 22, 23 are provided with diagonal struts 2 arranged from bottom to top.
5 and fixed to each other by struts 26 at the ends of the legs. Leg end struts 26 serve as fasteners for the pivotable upper front frame 30. The upper front frame is held by fixing bolts 31 on each side of the strut 26 at the leg end.

FIGS. 2 a and 2 b show the elevator system 3.
FIG. 2 shows a side view and a front view of a transport / assembly frame 1 with 2. The upper leg frame 30, which serves to secure the columns 33 and the cage 34 of the elevator system 32, is bolted to the flange 21 at the lower end of the base support 4. Therefore, the upper leg frame 30 can be pivoted outward at the same time when the fixing bolt 31 is removed.

A lower leg frame 35 that secures the elevator system 32 without the cage 34 is bolted to the flange 21 at the lower end of the foundation support 4 inside the upper leg frame 30.

The rest plates 24 for accommodating and fixing the columns 33 at the height of the cage 34 are fixed to the upper portions of the vertical beams 23 at the leg ends by screws. Two pairs of vertical beams 22 at the upper end each have longitudinal struts 36.
Are connected to each other. Rest support 37
It is arranged laterally on the longitudinal struts 36 and is fixed with screws. The rest plates 24 are mounted on the rest supports 37, respectively. The rest support 24 receives, for example in a groove block, the struts 33 of the elevator system 32 and the fasteners of the elevator system.

A longitudinally movable holder 41 is mounted inside the base support 4 against another longitudinal beam pair 40. Preferably, there are four such pairs on each side. When the clamp screw 42 is removed, the upper rim 43 of the movable holder 41 can be folded. By closing the upper rim 43, the upper half of the column of the elevator system 32 is accommodated in the folded holder 41,
Carry with fixed transportation.

For use as a transport frame, all the moving parts of the transport / assembly frame 1 are securely screwed on. The elevator system 32 is arranged on the transport / assembly frame 1 and, together with the struts 32, is screwed to said frame by a groove block. The transport / assembly frame 1 is sized to support the entire elevator system 32 up to a height of about 9 meters, ie, for example, up to a maximum column length of about 11.5 meters.

However, the transport / assembly frame 1 is capable of accommodating an elevator system 32 having a double height, a so-called two-part elevator system. For this,
The elevator system 32 is divided into a lower part with the lower half of the column 33 and the cage 34 and an upper part with the upper half of the column. The lower half of the column 33 and the cage 34 are transported /
Mounted on top of the assembly frame 1, the upper half of the column rests on an additional longitudinal beam 40 at the bottom and is held in place by a movable holder 41.

The transport / assembly frame 1 can be transported in a standard container 12 meters long. Thus, the transport / assembly frame 1 is convenient for being transported anywhere by rail, ship or truck to the desired location, and the elevator system 32 is optimally protected against damage.

FIGS. 3 and 4 show a transport / assembly frame 1.
