Definitions
- This invention relates to devices for enhancing the safety of a maintenance engineer working on top of an elevator car, particularly in a machine room-less elevator installation where overhead space is limited. It is recognised in the art that with the increasing move to machine room-less elevator installations, there is a significant danger posed when maintenance engineers need to ride on the top of the car to carry out inspections since there may not be sufficient room to stand on top of the car when the car is at the uppermost landing.
- Various proposals for enhancing the safety of engineers carrying out inspection on top of an elevator car have been proposed.
- the invention provides an elevator car comprising a cross-head portion, a balustrade mounted to said cross-head portion, said balustrade being moveable from a retracted position for normal operation of the car to a deployed position for inspection operation of the car, the car further comprising a second retractable safety device also mounted to said cross-head for preventing or limiting movement of the car.
- the second retractable safety device comprises one of a retractable bumper or a safety bolt. Most preferably both devices are provided.
- a bumper is a device which limits movement of the car beyond a predetermined point whilst a safety bolt is a device which substantially prevents any movement of the car.
- Preferably either or both of said safety devices are adapted to engage co-operating constructions attached to the elevator guide rails. It is preferred that the balustrade lies across a substantial portion of the top of the car when its retracted position.
- the balustrade comprises one or more controls - e.g. in a control box - for operating the car during an inspection.
- the controls will be raised to a comfortable working height by deploying the balustrade. It therefore obviates the need for an engineer to crouch down to reach such controls and whilst limiting the amount of vertical space required above the car during normal operation.
- At least one control for operating the car during an inspection mode is arranged on the balustrade in such a way that it may not be operated while the balustrade is in the retracted position. This is advantageous in that it prevents an engineer from undertaking inspection operation until at least one safety device, namely the retractable balustrade, has been deployed.
- the invention provides an elevator car comprising a retractable balustrade moveable between a retracted position for normal operation of the elevator car and a deployed position for inspection operation of the elevator car said balustrade comprising at least one control for operating the elevator car during said inspection operation wherein said control is arranged so that it cannot be operated when the balustrade is in the retracted position.
- the inspection control provided on the balustrade may be operatively associated with a switch or other means of detecting the position of the balustrade for selectively allowing operation of the control.
- the control is physically located on the balustrade in such a way that it is not accessible in the retracted position.
- a control for switching between normal and inspection operation of the elevator car is arranged such that it is not operable in the deployed position of the balustrade, but is operable in the retracted position.
- there are two or two sets of controls - the first for selecting between normal and inspection operation of the elevator car and accessible in the retracted but not the deployed position of the balustrade; and the second controlling operation of the car during inspection operation and operable in the deployed position but not the retracted position of the balustrade.
- the control for selecting between normal and inspection operation may be operably associated with a switch or other means of detecting the position of the balustrade but preferably the physical location of the control allows operation in the retracted position but not the deployed position of the balustrade.
- the controls in accordance with this aspect of the invention are preferably provided on a control box located on the balustrade e.g. a top of car inspection box of the type known in the art .
- FIG. 4 is a perspective view of an elevator car in accordance with a further embodiment of the invention with a balustrade in its retracted position
- Fig. 5 is a partial plan view of the embodiment of Fig. 4
- Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the elevator car of Fig. 4 with the balustrade deployed
- Fig. 7 is a partial plan view of the top of car inspection box on the deployed balustrade
- Figs. 8a and 8b are top and bottom detailed views of a top of car inspection box in accordance with the invention
- Fig. 9a and 9b are top and bottom views of another embodiment of the top of car inspection box
- FIG. 10 is a partial plan view of a retracted balustrade of another embodiment of the invention
- Fig. 11 is a partial plan view of the balustrade of Fig. 10 after deployment
- Figs. 12a, 12b are respectively top and bottom views of the TOCI box in Figs. 10 and 11.
- the car 2 comprises a pair of sliding doors 4 at the front thereof.
- a cantilever mounting arrangement 6 which in use mounts the car 2 for vertical translational movement in the guide rails (not shown) .
- a cross-head portion 8 At the top of the cantilever mounting arrangement 6 is a cross-head portion 8. Three separate retractable safety devices are mounted to the cross-head 8 - namely a retractable balustrade 10, a retractable bumper 12 and a safety bolt 14.
- the cross-head 8 not only enhances the strength of the cantilever mounting arrangement 6, but provides convenient integral mounting for the safety devices 10, 12, 14.
- this integrated mounting arrangement for the safety devices enables the top of the elevator car 16 to be substantially unencumbered with mountings etc. thereby allowing free movement of an engineer carrying out inspection whilst minimising the risk of the engineer tripping whilst moving about .
- the retractable balustrade 10 comprises a rectangular frame hingedly mounted to the cross-head 8 by its two legs. When in its retracted position as shown in Fig. 1, the balustrade 10 rests on the top of the car 16. A clip, latch or the like (not shown) may be provided to retain the balustrade 10 in its retracted position, when in the retracted position shown, the balustrade lies across most of the top 16 of the car such that manoeuvring on top of the car would be difficult . This provides an intuitive reminder to deploy the balustrade 10 prior to carrying out an inspection.
- the retractable bumper 12 comprises a contact pad 12a and a base plate 12b.
- the contact pad 12a is mounted to the base plate 12b which is in turn pivotally mounted to the cross-head 8 to allow the bumper to rotate from the retracted position shown in Fig. 1 in a horizontal plane to the deployed position shown in Fig. 2.
- the bumper is arranged to slide in and out from the cross-head.
- a switch (not shown) is associated with the retractable bumper preventing inspection operation of the car until it has been deployed and conversely preventing normal operation when it is deployed.
- the safety bolt 14 is slidingly retained in a bore through the cross-head 8 so as to allow it to be slid from the retracted position shown in Fig. 1 in which the far end of the bolt 14 does not project beyond the external surface of the cross-head 8 to the deployed position in Fig.
- FIG. 2 shows the elevator car 2 with all three of the previously described safety devices 10, 12, 14 in their deployed positions. Also shown in Fig. 2 are sections of the elevator guide rails 20. Considering firstly the balustrade 10, it will be seen that this has been raised to an upright position. In the upright position the balustrade 10 prevents an elevator from falling off the top of the car into the gap between the car and the wall of the shaft. It also provides a convenient handrail for an engineer to hold on to and presents the top of the car inspection box 18 at a convenient height for operation.
- the retractable bumper 14 is rotated horizontally to extend laterally from the side of cross-head 8 so that it is in the path of an impact plate 22 attached to the rear guide rail 20.
- Figs . 3a and 3b are respectively front and plan views of the cross-head and Fig. 3c is a section on line Z..Z in Fig. 3a. These three Figures show the mounting points for the safety devices.
- the pivot point 28 for the retractable balustrade 10 may be seen in Figs. 3a and 3c ; the fastening point 30 for the retractable buffer 12 may be seen in Figs. 3a and 3b and the hole 32 for the safety bolt 14 may be seen in Fig. 3a.
- safety switches may be associated with any or all of the safety devices 10, 12, 14 so as to prevent inspection operation of the elevator unless the safety devices have been properly deployed.
- a further embodiment of the invention is shown in Figs 4-8. This is similar to the previous embodiment and a further detailed description thereof is therefore not required. The significant difference in this embodiment is in the configuration of the top of car inspection box 34. As may be seen in Fig. 4 and in greater detail in Figs.
- a rotary switch 36 for selecting between normal and inspection operation This may be seen most clearly in Fig. 8a.
- the other is an emergency stop button 38 which is accessible by its location on the front end of the TOCI box 34.
- These two controls 36, 38 are accessible either from the landing or from on top of the car 2.
- controls for operating the elevator in inspection mode are not accessible in this position.
- Figs. 6, 7 and 8a show the deployed position of the balustrade 10. In this position the face of the TOCI box 34 which was facing the top of the elevator car 16 in the retracted position is now accessible. As will be seen most clearly in Fig.
- Figs. 9a and 9b are views similar to Figs. 8a and 8b respectively showing a different possible configuration of the inspection operation push buttons 40-46. A further embodiment is shown in Figs 10, 11, 12a and 12b.
- the alarm button 46 is located on the top face of the TOCI box 34 when the balustrade 10 is deployed (Fig. 11) and so the side face when the balustrade is retracted (Fig. 10) .
- the alarm button 46 is also accessible both from the landing and the top of the car, whichever position the balustrade 10 is in.
