TH41784B - Alignment of driven machinery for elevators - Google Patents

Abstract

DC60 (26/11/46) This invention relates to an elevator system and the method of arranging the drive motors (1, 2, 3, 3', 4, 40) of the elevator system. The elevator system consists of a cage (11) and a counterweight (10) in a shaft (10). The elevator system is comprised of a drive motor mounted on a crossbeam (8). The crossbeam is fastened by each end region to the corresponding counterweight guide (9,9') and by the center region to at least one cage guide (5,5'). This invention relates to an elevator system and the method of arranging the drive motors (1,2,3,3',4,40) of the elevator system. The elevator system consists of a cage (11) and a counterweight (10) in a shaft (10). The elevator system is comprised of a drive motor mounted on a crossbeam (8). The crossbeam is fastened by each end region to the corresponding counterweight guide (9,9') and by the center region to at least one cage guide (5,5'). Both ends are fitted to corresponding counterweight guides (9,9') and secured by their center to at least one cage guide (5,5').

Claims (12)

1. 2. The elevator system according to claim 1 is characterized by the pulley being linked in operation by a shaft (4) to the motor (1) and brake (2) and/or the drive pulley being positioned to the left and right of the horizontal linkage of the cage guide. 3. The lift system under claim 2 has the following key characteristics: the drive pulley is positioned between the motor and brake on the shaft, and/or the drive engine is secured by the motor housing and brake housing to the support structure, and/or the drive pulley is positioned within the enclosed area of the support structure. 4. A lift system as per any of Reservations 1 through 3, with the essential characteristics being that the guides, counterweights, and cage guides form a horizontal triangle (T) and the crossbars are secured at the vertices of the triangle and/or with the essential characteristics being that the crossbars are secured by each end of the two ends to the corresponding guides, counterweights, and by the center to the cage guides. 5. An elevator system according to any of the claims 1 through 4, with the key characteristic that the guide, cage and counterweight guide are arranged vertically in the shaft and/or with the key characteristic that the crossbeam is arranged horizontally in the shaft and/or with the key characteristic that the drive engine is arranged horizontally in the shaft. 6. An elevator system according to any of the claims 1 to 5, with the important characteristics that the drive engine is installed by relying on a support structure (7) on the crossbeam and has the important characteristics that the support structure is installed at the center of the crossbeam. 7. A lift system as described in any of Reservations 1 through 6, having the essential characteristic of having at least two drive units to move the cage and counterweights; having the essential characteristic of having each drive unit having two ends; and having the essential characteristic of having each end of the drive unit being fixed to the shaft wall or shaft ceiling, to the counterweight guide, to the cage guide, to the crossbeam, to the counterweight, or to the cage. 8. An elevator system as described in any of Reservations 1 through 7, with the essential characteristic of having at least two drive systems to move the cage and counterweight, and with the essential characteristic of having a belt drive system. 9. A lift system according to any of Reservations 1 through 8, with the following key characteristics: the cage is suspended in a 2:1 ratio and the drive engine is located above the path of the counterweight; or the cage is suspended in a 2:1 ratio and the drive engine is located above the path of the cage; or the cage is suspended in a 2:1 ratio and the drive engine is located slightly north of the path of the counterweight and cage; or the cage is suspended in a 1:1 ratio and the drive engine is located slightly north of the path of the cage. 10. Method of placing the drive motor (1,2,3,3',4,40) of the lift system, together with the cage (11) and counterweight (12) in shaft (10). The drive motor is mounted on the crossbeam (8) to the counterweight guide (9,9') and to at least one cage guide (5,5'), with the main characteristic being that the drive motor with two sets of drive pulleys (3,3') is positioned to the left and right of the horizontal linkage of the cage guide. 11. The method under claim 10 is characterized by a triangle (T) composed of guides, counterweights, and cage guides, and crossbars fixed at the vertices of the triangle and/or, characterized by crossbars fixed by each end to the corresponding guide/counterweight and by the center to the cage guide. 12. The method under claim 11 is characterized by the propulsion engine being freely selectable and placed on the area of this triangle (T) that is predominantly north of the ballast and/or predominantly north of the cage.
