Application filed February 7, 1895. Serial No. 537,658. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern: forming a guide for the pinions, the flanges Be it known that we, JOHN PARKINSON, on the pinions rotating against the flanges 2 THOMAS M. MARTIN, and CALVIN O. BOWEN, on the standards.

30 represents a grooved pulley secured rigidly to one end of the motor-shaft.
81 represents a flexible strap or band havin g one of its ends secured at 32 to the bracket 28, the strap passing nearly around the pulley and resting in the groove of the same and having its opposite end adjustably secured at 33 to the free end of a bar 34, said strap being made adjustable as to length by means of a nut 35 secured on its upper end. The opposite end of the bar 34: is pivoted to the traveling frame at 36.
37 represents a grooved roller journaled 011 a stud 38 on the operating-1ever 26, said roller being located immediately beneath the bar 34:.
39 represents a boss on the under side of the bar 3% in a vertical plane with the lever 26 when it is in its upright position.
As the lever is brought to a vertical position by the operator the roller 37 will roll against the boss 39, raising the bar 34, thus lifting up on the flexible strap 31, thus forming a frictional brake on the pulley 30 and stopping the (310"Ett01,ll3 being understood that when the operating-lever is moved to a vertical position the electric current is shut off.
40 represents a broken connection leading to the rheostat.
41 represents a lever pivoted to the operating-lever at 42, said lever 41 having an cecentric L3 on its lower end, said eccentric when the lever 41 is forced to one side coming in contact with the edge of a quadrant 44, thus enabling the operator to hold the operating-lever at any desired position without causing any undue strain upon the hand and arm.
45 represents cross-bars which have their ends fitted in the channe1-irons of the standards, thus serving to brace the standards.
By the use of our channel-iron construction of the standards We form a combined rack and standard that permits us to dispense with wooden standards, thus avoiding danger from fire as well as other advantages not necessary to. mention.
We claim as our invention- 1. The combination of the four standards each having on their outer sides a pair of racks formed with stepped teeth and flanges on both sides of the paired racks, the traveling frame, the driven shafts journaled to the traveling frame, the paired pinions formed with stepped teeth and with flanges bearing against the flanges of the standards, the wormwheels secured to the driven shafts, the motor, and the motor-shaft having worm-gears and arranged transversely of the driven shaft; substantially as described:
2. The combination of the four channelstandards, each having on their outer sides a pair of racks formed with stepped teeth and flanges on both sides of the paired racks, the cross-bars located between and fitted in the channel-standards, the traveling frame, the driven shafts j ournaled to the traveling frame, the paired pinions formed with stepped teeth and with flanges bearing against the flanges of the channel-standards the worm-wheels secured to the driven shafts, the motor, and the motor-shaft having worm-gears and arranged transversely of the driven shafts; substantially as described.
3. The combinationwith the traveling frame, of the motor, the motor-shaft the bevel gearwheel secured to the motor-shaft, the bracket secured to the traveling frame, the vertical movable shaft having a supporting-collar at its upper end, and a bevel-pinion at its lower end, and the hinged catch; substantially as described.
4:. In an elevator the combination, of a movable frame, a motor-shaft, a grooved pulley on the motor-shaft, an operating-lever pivoted to the movable frame, a roller journaled to the operating-lever, a movable bar having one of its ends pivoted to the movable frame, a boss on said bar, a flexible strap having one of its ends fixed to the movable frame and its opposite end secured to the free end of the movable bar, said strap being adapted to engage the grooved pulley whereby the action of the roller on the movable bar will contract the strap and thus form a brake on the motor-shaft substantially as set forth.
