Definitions
- This invention generally relates to elevator door systems. More particularly, this invention relates to a unique arrangement of an elevator door operator and interlock.
- Modern elevator systems include a car that moves through a hoistway between landings in a building.
- the car includes a cabin portion within which passengers or cargo are transported between different levels in the building.
- Typical arrangements include a door operator or mover mechanism located at the top of the cabin.
- a door interlock that provides for simultaneous movement of the cabin doors and the hoistway entrance doors typically is also mounted near the top of the cabin and in some instances above the doors. While such arrangements have proven effective and useful, they are not without shortcomings and drawbacks.
- this invention is an elevator door assembly having a door mover and an interlock positioned near a lower edge of the door.
- One elevator car assembly designed according to this invention includes a frame. At least one cabin door is supported for guided movement relative to the frame. A door mover moves the door between open and closed positions. The door mover is supported by the frame near a lower edge of the door. An interlock that provides for simultaneous movement of a corresponding hoistway entrance door with the cabin door is also positioned near the lower edge of the door.
- a sill member is located beneath the door with the door mover and the interlock are both supported beneath the sill.
- the sill includes a groove through which a portion of the door extends.
- the door mover is coupled with the extending portion of the door such that the door mover is capable of moving the door as needed to provide access to the cabin.
- Figure 1 schematically illustrates selected portions of an elevator car assembly incorporating a door mover and interlock arrangement desired according to an embodiment of this invention.
- Figure 2 is a side, partial cross sectional view showing selected portions of one example embodiment.
- Figure 3 is a front view schematically illustrating the embodiment of Figure 2.
- Figure 4 is a front view schematically illustrating an alternative embodiment.
- Figure 5 is a side view schematically illustrating interaction between a cabin door and a hoistway door.
- Figure 6 is a front view of the hoistway side of the embodiment of Figure 5.
- Figure 1 schematically shows an elevator car assembly 20 where a cabin 22 is supported by a car frame 24 in a conventional manner.
- Two cabin doors 26 are selectively moveable between a closed position (as shown) and an open position to provide selective access to the interior of the cabin 22.
- the cabin doors 26 are supported on a rail 30 by hangers 32, which may include rollers, for example, for guiding movement of the doors 26 along the rail 30.
- a sill member 34 is supported by the frame near a bottom of the doors 26.
- a door mover 40 i.e., motor, gear box, controller, drive mechanism, etc.
- an interlock device 42 which facilitates simultaneous movement of the cabin doors 26 and hoistway entrance doors ( Figures 5 and 6).
- the door mover 40 and interlock 42 are supported near a lower edge 44 of the doors 26.
- FIG. 1 is a side view of selected portions of the door assembly.
- the sill member 34 is supported by a frame portion 50.
- the sill member 34 in this example includes a slot 52 through which an extending portion 54 of the door 26 is received.
- the door mover 40 has an appropriate coupling with the extending portion 54 of the door 26 such that the operative components of the door mover are capable of moving the door 26 as required to move the doors between open and closed positions.
- a portion of the door 54 extends through the slot 52 in the sill member 34 such that the door mover 40 can operate within the same plane as that in which the door 26 lies.
- Figure 4 Another example arrangement is shown in Figure 4 where the door mover 40 has separate portions 40A and 40B associated with corresponding ones of the cabin doors 26.
- linking members 60 which may comprise mechanical linkages or chains, for example, provide a connection between the doors 26 and the door mover 40 to allow for the desired movement of the doors.
- the embodiments shown in Figures 1 through 3 have the door mover 40 completely beneath the bottom edge of the doors 26.
- the door mover components 40 are all beneath the sill member 34.
- at least some of the door mover components are above the sill 34 but close to the lower edge 44 of the doors 26.
- the interlock device 42 has not been shown in Figures 2-4 for purposes of discussing the mover 40.
- an example interlock arrangement is schematically shown.
- the car doors 26 selectively close off the cabin 22 while the hoistway entrance openings 64 are selectively closed off by hoistway entrance doors 66.
- the interlock device 42 provides for simultaneous movement of the doors 26 and the doors 66 when the car is appropriately aligned with a selected landing 68.
- a door frame assembly 70 includes a header portion 72.
- a rail 74 is supported as part of the header portion 72 such that rollers 76 allow for guided movement of the doors 66 along the rail 74.
- a sill member 78 is positioned near a lower edge of the hoistway doors.
- the illustrated example of an interlock device 42 includes at least one vane 80 that extends away from a surface of the cabin door 26.
- At least one set of rollers 82 is selectively engaged by the vane 80 to provide for simultaneous movement of the cabin doors 26 and the hoistway doors 66 in a generally known manner.
- the door interlock device 42 is supported near the lower edge 44 of the cabin doors 26.
- the interlock device 42 is beneath the bottom edge of the doors and beneath the sill member 34.
- the interlock device 42 is supported near the lower edge of the doors without being entirely beneath the doors or beneath the sill member 34.
