  A typical 1: 1 roping type elevator (existing elevator) is refurbished to a common 2: 1 roping type elevator by using existing guide rails. When the position is not changed from the existing one, it is necessary to suspend the car and the counterweight on the main rope as follows. That is, it is necessary to shift the main rope suspended from the machine room by the radius of the pulley from the position where the existing main rope is located, and fix the end of the main rope via the loop portion.

  For this reason, a rope through hole for passing a main rope used for a new elevator must be newly formed on the floor of the machine room. That is, it is necessary to perform a chiseling work on the concrete that constitutes the floor of the machine room, and the elevator operation must be stopped while the rope through hole is newly placed on the floor of the machine room. Will be burdened.

  Also, if a 2: 1 roping type elevator is constructed by suspending a main rope used for a new elevator from a rope through hole through which the main rope of an existing elevator has been passed and winding it on a pulley, The suspension position of the car and the counterweight when viewed from the direction is shifted by the radius of the pulley as compared with the existing case. That is, in this case, the car and the counterweight are inclined from a predetermined posture.

  The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-described problems. An existing 1: 1 roping elevator is used without a new rope through hole in the floor of a machine room, and a car and a counterweight are specified. It is an object of the present invention to provide an elevator and a method for repairing an elevator that are suitable for repairing to a 2: 1 roping type without tilting from the attitude.

  The elevator according to the present invention includes a machine room provided at an upper part of the hoistway, a hoisting machine having a drive sheave, and is wound around the drive sheave, suspended from the machine room in the hoistway, via a loop portion. A pair of suspension carts that are supported by each of the main rope and the loop portion that are fixed to the upper part of the hoistway so that one end side and the other end side are reversed so as to move up and down in opposite directions as the main rope travels Each of the above, a car and a counterweight each having a support frame, a connecting device for connecting between one suspension car and the car, and between the other car and the counterweight, and each of the car and the counterweight. A pair of guide rails for guiding the raising and lowering of the car and the counterweight, and each coupling device is arranged to pass between the pair of guide rails and is different from each other. A pair of abutting portions that are applied to the pair of guide rails at positions in the height direction are provided at both ends, and the suspension wheel is rotatably connected around the horizontal axis and includes a regulating body that supports the support frame. .

  According to the elevator according to the present invention, the regulating body to which the suspension vehicle is connected is provided so as to pass the pair of guide rails, and the contact portions provided at both ends of the regulating body are opposed to each other at different height positions. It is in contact with the wall surface of the guide rail. Therefore, the suspension position of the car and the counterweight when viewed from the height direction deviates from the position where the car and the counterweight are kept in a predetermined posture, and the moment that rotates the suspension center around the suspension position acts on the car and the counterweight. However, the regulation body restricts the rotation of the car and the counterweight.

As a result, there is no problem even if the suspension position of the suspension car or the car is deviated from the existing one. Therefore, when the elevator is obtained by refurbishing from the 1: 1 roping type existing elevator, the main rope and the car or the counterweight. Is simply connected to the new main rope through the portion where the main rope of the existing elevator has been inserted, via the suspension car and the connecting device.
That is, since it is not necessary to perform a chiseling work on the floor of the machine room, the work time and labor required for repairing the elevator can be remarkably reduced, and the burden on the user for stopping the elevator can be greatly reduced.

For this reason, the car 15 and the counterweight 20 are moved from the predetermined posture of the car 10 and the counterweight 20 where the vertical frame 17a of the car frame 17 and the counterweight frame 22a of the counterweight frame 22 extend in the height direction. A moment that rotates around the suspension position is generated in the tilting direction.

  However, since both ends (a pair of contact rollers 38) of the regulation body 31A connected to the suspension wheel 10a are in contact with a pair of guide rails 25 that guide the car 15 at different positions in the height direction, The restriction body 31A restricts the car 15 from rotating from a predetermined posture. For this reason, the car 15 is raised and lowered while being guided by the guide rail 25 in conjunction with the lifting and lowering of the suspension vehicle 10a while maintaining the predetermined posture.

  Similarly, both ends (a pair of contact rollers 38) of the regulating body 31B connected to the counterweight 20 are in contact with a pair of guide rails 25 that guide the counterweight 20 at different positions in the height direction. The counterweight 31B restricts the counterweight 20 from rotating from a predetermined posture. Therefore, the counterweight 20 is lifted and lowered while being guided by the guide rail 25 in conjunction with the lifting and lowering of the suspension vehicle 10b while maintaining a predetermined posture.

  The 2: 1 roping type elevator 1 having the above-described configuration is a new rope through hole provided in the floor 3A of the machine room 3 in order to modify the existing 1: 1 roping type elevator described below. The guide rail 25, the car 15, the counterweight 20, and the machine base 7 of the existing elevator 100 can be used.

  Prior to the elevator refurbishing method for refurbishing the 1: 1 roping type elevator into the 2: 1 roping type elevator, the configuration of the 1: 1 roping type elevator will be described.

FIG. 11 is a diagram for explaining a method for repairing an elevator according to an embodiment of the present invention, and shows a schematic diagram of an existing elevator. FIG. 12 is a diagram for explaining a method for repairing an elevator according to an embodiment of the present invention, and shows a top view of a machine room of an existing elevator. FIG. 13 is a front view seen from the direction F of FIG.
11 to 13, the same reference numerals are given to the same or corresponding parts as the elevator 1, and the description thereof is omitted.

  In FIG. 11 to FIG. 13, an existing elevator 100 is of a 1: 1 roping type, and is fixed to a machine room 3 provided above the hoistway 2 and a machine base 7 provided in the machine room 3. A hoisting machine 104 having an electric motor 106 that generates torque for rotating the wheel 105 and the driving sheave 105, a deflector wheel 108 provided in the machine room 3, and wound around the driving sheave 105 and the deflector wheel 108, And a main rope 109 which is inserted into rope through holes 3b and 3c formed in the floor 3A of the third floor and is suspended in the hoistway 2 at one end side and the other end side.

  In addition, the existing elevator 100 is provided in pairs so that the car 15 and the counterweight 20 connected to one end side and the other end side of the main rope 109 and the car 15 and the counterweight 20 are respectively disposed between them. As shown in FIG. 13, a guide rail 25 that guides the raising and lowering of the car 15 and the counterweight 20, a rope shackle 110 </ b> A as a rope support device that connects one end of the main rope 109 to the car 15, and the main rope 109. And a rope shackle 110B as a rope support device for connecting the other end of the cable to the counterweight 20.

The rope through-hole 3b includes the end portion of the drive sheave 105 located on the opposite side of the deflecting wheel 108 in the direction orthogonal to the axial direction of the drive sheave 105 when viewed from the height direction. 3 floors 3A.
Further, the rope through hole 3c includes an end portion of the deflecting wheel 108 that is located on the opposite side of the driving sheave 105 with respect to a direction orthogonal to the axial direction of the deflecting wheel 108 when viewed from the height direction. It is formed on the floor 3 </ b> A of the machine room 3.

The rope shackle 110A connects one end of the main rope 109 and the upper frame 17b.
The rope shackle 110B connects the other end of the main rope 109 and the upper frame 22b.

  The existing elevator 100 configured as described above moves up and down in a direction in which the car 15 and the counterweight 20 oppose each other in conjunction with the rotation of the driving sheave 105.

  Next, an elevator repair method for repairing the existing elevator 100 to the elevator 1 using the guide rail 25, the car 15, the counterweight 20, and the machine base 7 will be described.

  The car 15 and the counterweight 20 are temporarily fixed (preliminarily supported) at predetermined positions in the hoistway 2 by some method. This type of work has been conventionally performed, for example, when a main rope of a general existing elevator is replaced.

Next, the existing hoisting machine 104, the existing deflecting wheel 108, and the existing main rope 109 are removed.
Furthermore, a new sloping wheel 8 is provided corresponding to the position where the existing sloping wheel 108 was installed, and the new hoisting machine 4 is made to correspond to the position where the existing hoisting machine 4 was installed, It fixes to the machine base 7 which diverted the existing thing as it is.
At this time, the existing machine base 7 is not particularly moved.

  Further, as described above, with respect to the direction orthogonal to the axial direction of the drive sheave 5 and the deflector wheel 8 as viewed from the height direction, the end of the drive sheave 4 located on the opposite side of the deflector wheel 8 is The hoisting machine 4 and the baffle wheel 8 are installed so that the end of the baffle wheel 8 included in the rope through hole 3b and located on the side opposite to the drive sheave 4 is included in the rope through hole 3c.

  Further, a pair of beam support members 77 is fixed to the upper part of the hoistway 2, and a bracing beam 80 is provided so as to pass the pair of beam support members 77.

Next, the new main rope 9 is wound around the new drive sheave 5 and the deflector wheel 8 and one end side of the new main rope 9 through the through holes 3b and 3c through which the existing main rope 109 is passed. Further, the rope shackle 70 is used for the leash retaining beam 80 having one end side and the other end side provided at the upper part of the hoistway 2 so that the other end side is suspended in the hoistway 2 and reversed through the loop portion 9a. And fix.
Further, the pair of suspension wheels 10 a and 10 b are arranged so that the loop portion 9 a is wound from below and supported by the main rope 9.
Next, the one suspension wheel 10a and the car 15 are connected using the connecting device 30A (first connecting step).

Moreover, between the other suspension vehicle 10b and the counterweight 20 is connected using the connection device 30B (second connection step).
More specifically, in each of the first connection step and the second connection step, the suspension wheels 10a and 10b are connected to the regulation bodies 31A and 31B so as to be rotatable around the horizontal axis, and a pair of contact rollers 38 are provided. It has the process of arrange | positioning the regulation bodies 31A and 31B between a pair of guide rail 25 so that it may be applied to a pair of guide rail 25 in a different height position.

More specifically, in the first connecting step, the first support unit 40 is attached to the first arm 33 of the restricting body 31A, and the first arm 33 is a pair of guides so that the first support unit 40 faces upward. A pair of guide rollers that are horizontally disposed between the rails 25 and that guide the pair of abutment rollers 38 with the restricting body 31 </ b> A so that the second arm 34 extends above the first arm 33. It abuts on the guide rail 25.
Then, the suspension vehicle 10a is moved to a position where the upper frame 17b of the car 15 is placed on the first support unit 40, and the temporary fixing of the car 15 is released.

In the second connecting step, the first support unit 40 is attached to the first arm 33 of the regulating body 31B constituting the connecting device 30B, the second arm 34 is extended above the first arm 33, and The pair of contact rollers 38 are brought into contact with the pair of guide rails 25 that guide the weights 20 with the regulating body 31 </ b> B directed so that the first support unit 40 is disposed on the first arm 33.
Then, the suspension vehicle 10b is moved to the position where the upper frame 22b of the counterweight 20 is placed on the first support unit 40, and the temporary fixing of the counterweight 20 is released.
Thus, the repair of the elevator is completed.

  The elevator according to the present invention is of a 2: 1 roping type, and includes connecting devices 30A and 30B for connecting between one suspension vehicle 10a and the car 15 and between the other suspension vehicle 10b and the counterweight 20 respectively. ing. Each of the connecting devices 30A and 30B is disposed so as to pass between a pair of guide rails 25 that guide the car 15 and the counterweight 20, and is applied to the opposing end surfaces of the pair of guide rails 25 by changing the position in the height direction. Regulating bodies 31A and 31B having a pair of contact rollers 38 at both ends, the suspension wheels 10a and 10b being rotatably connected around the horizontal axis, and supporting the support frame (the car frame 17 and the counterweight frame 22). It has.

  Therefore, the hanging position of the car 15 and the counterweight 20 when viewed from the height direction is deviated from the center of the car 15 and the counterweight 20, and the car 15 and the counterweight 20 is rotated from the predetermined posture around the hanging position. Even if the moment to move acts, it is controlled by the regulation bodies 31A and 31B that the car 15 and the counterweight 20 rotate.

  That is, according to the elevator 1 configured as described above, when the existing 1: 1 roping type existing elevator 100 is modified to a 2: 1 roping type, the hanging position of the car 15 and the counterweight 20 is Since it may deviate from the existing one, it is possible to use the guide rail 25 of the existing elevator 100 and the base material such as the machine base 7 as they are.

That is, the 2: 1 roping type elevator 1 is constructed by using the new main rope 9 passed through the rope through holes 3b and 3c formed in the floor 3A of the machine room 3 through which the main rope 109 has been passed. In this case, the hanging position of the car 15 and the counterweight 20 is shifted. However, since the rotation of the car 15 and the counterweight 20 is restricted by the regulating bodies 31A and 31B, a new rope through hole is provided in the floor 3A of the machine room 3 in order to shift the hanging position of the car 15 and the counterweight 20. There is no need to provide or move the machine base 7.
As a result, it is no longer necessary to perform the chiseling work on the floor 3A of the machine room 3, so that the work time and labor required for the repair of the elevator can be remarkably reduced and the stop time of the elevator resulting from the repair can be shortened. The burden on the person can be greatly reduced.

  Further, if a hole is made in the floor 3A of the machine room 3, if a hole is made in the reinforcing bar buried in the floor 3A, a problem in strength may occur. Care must also be taken with respect to the strength of the elevator, but this problem is eliminated when the elevator 1 is refurbished.

  Further, since the car frame 17 and the counterweight frame 22 as the support frame are supported by the regulating bodies 31A and 31B via the first elastic members, the vibration of the suspension vehicles 10a and 10b is caused by the car 15 and the counterweight 20. It is possible to suppress vibrations transmitted to.

The connecting device 30B provided on the counterweight 20 side includes a shaft support fitting 61 as a suspension vehicle support member provided on the regulating body 31B so as to support the suspension vehicle 10b and adjust the position in the height direction. . Therefore, even when the length of the main rope 9 is extended, by shifting the height position of the shaft support fitting 61, the extension of the main rope 9 can be absorbed and the same state as the initial state can be maintained.
The movement of the shaft support fitting 61 in the height direction may be half of the extension amount of the main rope 9, and the extension of the main rope 9 corresponding to twice the movable range of the shaft support fitting 61 is It can be absorbed by the movement of the support fitting 61 to maintain the initial state.

  In addition, since the shaft support fitting 61 is provided in the restricting body 31B so that the position in the height direction can be adjusted, for example, the shackle rod 71 is inserted and the part of the leash retaining beam 80 that supports the shackle rod 71 is moved up and down. When the length between the ceiling of the road 2 is short, there is a limit in adjusting the extension of the main rope 9 by moving the attachment position of the shackle rod 71 to the ceiling side. It is desirable to arrange the ropes 80 as close to the ceiling of the hoistway 2 as possible. Even if the ropes 80 are arranged as close to the ceiling of the hoistway 2 as possible, the main rope 9 can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the shaft support fitting 61 in the height direction. The unnecessary space can be omitted by narrowing the space at the top of the.

The regulation bodies 31A and 31B have a substantially L-shaped main body arm 35 in which the contact roller 38 is disposed on one end side and the other end side, and a pair of the longitudinal directions of one piece (first arm 33) of the main body arm 35 are arranged. The guide rails 25 are arranged so as to coincide with the separating direction of the guide rails 25.
The main parts of the regulating bodies 31A and 31B have a simple configuration of L-shape, so that they can be easily manufactured, and the car 15 and the counterweight 20 are simply placed on the car frame 17 and the counterweight frame 22, Since 15 and the counterweight 20 can be supported by the regulating bodies 31A and 31B, the manufacturing cost of the regulating bodies 31A and 31B and the cost for connecting the cage 15 and the counterweight 20 to the regulating bodies 31A and 31B can be reduced.

  Since each of the one end side and the other end side of the main rope 9 is connected to a rope holding beam 80 fixed to the upper part of the hoistway 2 via a rubber piece 73 as a second elastic member, the suspension wheel 10a, It can suppress that the vibration of 10b is transmitted to the cage | basket | car 15 or the counterweight 20, and vibrates.

In addition, according to the elevator refurbishment method, the first connecting step of connecting the one suspension car 10a and the car 15 using the connecting device 30A and the other suspension car 10b and the counterweight 20 are already performed. And a second connecting step for connecting using one connecting device 30B. In each of the first connecting step and the second connecting step, the suspension bodies 10A and 10b are freely rotatable around the horizontal axis. The regulating bodies 31A and 31B are arranged so that the pair of contact rollers 38 are applied to the pair of guide rails 25 at different height positions.
Therefore, as described above, it is not necessary to make a rope insertion hole in the floor 3A of the machine room 3 in order to upgrade the existing elevator 100 of the 1: 1 roping type to the elevator 1 of 2: 1. It is possible to use the guide rail 25, the machine base 7, or the like.
As a result, it is no longer necessary to perform the chiseling work on the floor 3A of the machine room 3, so that the work time and labor required for the repair of the elevator can be remarkably reduced and the stop time of the elevator resulting from the repair can be shortened. The burden on the person can be greatly reduced.

  In the above embodiment, the connecting device 30B provided on the counterweight 20 side has been described as having the shaft support fitting 61 as the suspension wheel bearing member. However, the connecting device 30A provided on the car 15 side is provided with the shaft support. It may have a metal fitting 61. Further, both of the connecting devices 30 </ b> A and 30 </ b> B provided on the car 15 side and the counterweight 20 side may have a shaft support fitting 61.

  Furthermore, although the car frame 17 and the counterweight frame 22 have been described as being supported on the regulating body 31 via the first support unit 40 having the first elastic member, the first elastic member is not necessarily provided. .
