Le collier (76) porte au moins deux coulisses (90) en regard desdites surfaces de coulissement (80) du faisceau de stator (18), chaque coulisse (90) comprenant un cylindre (92) fixé au collier (76) et un piston (94) mobile dans ledit cylindre (92) et connecté au sabot coulissant (96), ledit sabot coulissant (96) portant au moins un patin coulissant (98) faisant face à au moins l'une desdites surfaces de coulissement (80) du faisceau de stator (18), le sabot coulissant (96) étant mobile par l'intermédiaire du piston (94) avec un composant perpendiculaire à un plan de la surface de coulissement adjacente (80) du faisceau de stator (18), ledit piston (94) étant mobile par l'intermédiaire d'un mécanisme d'actionnement (82), configuré pour être déclenché au moins par l'intermédiaire de la commande d'arrêt d'urgence en cas de coupure du moteur linéaire. Par l'intermédiaire de cet agencement, l'entrefer entre le dispositif de déplacement et le rail de stator est maintenu en cas de coupure de courant et une décélération excessive de la cabine d'ascenseur est évitée.
