Definitions
- the present invention relates to an elevator as defined in the preamble of claim 1.
- the size and weight of the machine are a problem regarding installation, even so much so that the required machine size and weight have in practice limited the sphere of application of the concept of elevator without machine room or at least retarded the introduction of said concept in larger elevators.
- WO 99/43589 discloses an elevator suspended using flat belts in which relatively small diversion diameters on the traction sheave and diverting pulleys are achieved.
- the problem with this solution is the limitations regarding lay-out solutions, the disposition of components in the elevator shaft and the alignment of diverting pulleys.
- the alignment of polyurethane-coated belts having a load-bearing steel component inside is problematic e.g. in a situation where the car is tilted.
- an elevator so implemented needs to be rather robustly constructed at least as regards the machine and/or the structures supporting it.
- the massive construction of other parts of the elevator needed to maintain alignment between the traction sheave and diverting pulleys also increases the weight and cost of the elevator.
- installing and adjusting such a system is a difficult task requiring great precision.
- the object of the invention is to achieve at least one of the following aims.
- it is an aim the invention to develop the elevator without machine room further so as to allow more effective space utilization in the building and elevator shaft than before. This means that the elevator must be so constructed that it can be installed in a fairly narrow elevator shaft if necessary.
- it is an aim of the invention to reduce the size and/or weight of the elevator or at least of the elevator machine.
- the object of the invention should be achieved without impairing the possibility of varying the basic elevator layout.
- the elevator of the invention is characterized by what is presented in the characterization part of claim 1.
- Other embodiments of the invention are characterized by what is presented in the other claims.
- the primary area of application of the invention is elevators designed for transporting people and/or freight.
- the invention is primarily intended for use in elevators whose speed range, in the case of passenger elevators, is normally about or above 1.0 m/s but may also be e.g. only about 0.5 m/s. In the case of freight elevators, too, the speed is preferably about 0.5 m/s, though slower speeds can also be used with large loads.
- the elevator of the invention can be provided with elevator hoisting ropes twisted e.g. from round and strong wires. From round wires, the rope can be twisted in many ways using wires of different or equal thickness. In ropes applicable with the invention, the wire thickness is below 0.4 mm on an average. Well applicable ropes made from strong wires are those in which the average wire thickness is below 0.3 mm or even below 0.2 mm. For instance, thin-wired and strong 4 mm ropes can be twisted relatively economically from wires such that the mean wire thickness in the finished rope is in the range of 0.15 ... 0.23 mm, in which case the thinnest wires may have a thickness as small as only about 0.1 mm. Thin rope wires can easily be made very strong.
- the invention employs rope wires having a strength of about 2000 N/mm 2 or more.
- a suitable range of rope wire strength is 2300-2700 N/mm 2 .
- Fig. 1 is a diagrammatic representation of the structure of an elevator.
- the elevator is preferably an elevator without machine room, in which the drive machine 6 is placed in the elevator shaft.
- the elevator shown in the figure is a traction sheave elevator with machine above.
- the passage of the hoisting ropes 3 of the elevator is as follows: One end of the ropes is immovably fixed to an anchorage 13 located in the upper part of the shaft above the path of a counterweight 2 moving along counterweight guide rails 11.
- Anchorage 13 in the upper part of the shaft, the traction sheave 7 and the diverting pulley 9 suspending the counterweight on the ropes are preferably so disposed in relation to each other that both the rope portion going from the anchorage 13 to the counterweight 2 and the rope portion going from the counterweight 2 to the traction sheave 7 are substantially parallel to the path of the counterweight 2.
- anchorage 14 in the upper part of the shaft, the traction sheave 7 and the diverting pulleys 4 suspending the elevator car on the ropes are so disposed in relation to each other that the rope portion going from the anchorage 14 to the elevator car 1 and the rope portion going from the elevator car 1 to the traction sheave 7 are substantially parallel to the path of the elevator car 1.
- the rope suspension acts in a substantially centric manner on the elevator car 1, provided that the rope pulleys 4 supporting the elevator car are mounted substantially symmetrically relative to the vertical center line passing via the center of gravity of the elevator car 1.
- the drive machine 6 placed in the elevator shaft is preferably of a flat construction, in other words, the machine has a small depth as compared with its width and/or height, or at least the machine is slim enough to be accommodated between the elevator car and a wall of the elevator shaft.
- the machine may also be placed differently, e.g. by disposing the slim machine partly or completely between an assumed extension of the elevator car and a shaft wall.
- the elevator shaft can be provided with equipment required for the supply of power to the motor driving the traction sheave 7 as well as equipment for elevator control, both of which can be placed in a common instrument panel 8 or mounted separately from each other or integrated partly or wholly with the drive machine 6.
- the drive machine may be of a geared or gearless type.
- a preferable solution is a gearless machine comprising a permanent magnet motor.
- the drive machine may be fixed to a wall of the elevator shaft, to the ceiling, to a guide rail or guide rails or to some other structure, such as a beam or frame.
- a further possibility is to mount the machine on the bottom of the elevator shaft.
- Fig. 1 illustrates the economical 2:1 suspension, but the invention can also be implemented in an elevator using a 1:1 suspension ratio, in other words, in an elevator in which the hoisting ropes are connected directly to the counterweight and elevator car without diverting pulleys. Other suspension arrangements are also possible in an implementation of the invention.
- the elevator presented in the figure has automatic telescoping doors, but other types of automatic doors or turning doors can also be used in the elevator of the invention.
- Fig. 2 presents a diagram representing another traction sheave elevator according to the invention.
- This type of elevator is generally a traction sheave elevator with machine below.
- the elevator car 101 and the counterweight 102 are suspended on the hoisting ropes 103 of the elevator.
- the elevator drive machine 106 is mounted in the elevator shaft, preferably in the lower part of the shaft, and the hoisting ropes are passed via diverting pulleys 104,105 provided in the upper part of the elevator shaft to the car 101 and to the counterweight 102.
- the diverting pulleys 104, 105 are placed in the upper part of the shaft and preferably separately mounted with bearings on the same axle so that they can rotate independently of each other.
- the hoisting ropes 103 consist of at least three parallel ropes.
- the elevator car 101 and the counterweight 102 move in the elevator shaft along elevator and counterweight guide rails 110,111 guiding them.
- the hoisting ropes run as follows: One end of the ropes is fixed to an anchorage 112 in the upper part of the shaft, from where it goes downward to the counterweight 102.
- the counterweight is suspended on the ropes 103 via a diverting pulley 109. From the counterweight, the ropes go further upward to a first diverting pulley 105 mounted on an elevator guide rail 110, and from the diverting pulley 105 further to the traction sheave 107 driven by the drive machine 106.
- the ropes From the traction sheave, the ropes go again upward to a second diverting pulley 104, passing around it, after which they pass via diverting pulleys 108 mounted on top of the elevator car and then go further to an anchorage 113 in the upper part of the elevator shaft, where the other end of the hoisting ropes is fixed.
- the elevator car is suspended on the hoisting ropes 103 by means of diverting pulleys 108.
- one or more of the rope portions between the diverting pulleys or between the diverting pulleys and the traction sheave may deviate from an exact vertical direction, a circumstance that makes it easy to provide a sufficient distance between different rope portions or a sufficient distance between the hoisting ropes and other elevator components.
- the traction sheave 107 and the hoisting machine 106 are preferably disposed somewhat aside from the path of the elevator car 101 as well as that of the counterweight 102, so they can easily be placed almost at any height in the elevator shaft below the diverting pulleys 104 and 105. If the machine is not placed directly above or below the counterweight or elevator car, this will allow a saving in shaft height.
- the minimum height of the elevator shaft is exclusively determined on the basis of the length of the paths of the counterweight and elevator car and the safety clearances needed above and below these.
- a smaller space at the top or bottom of the shaft will be sufficient due to the reduced rope pulley diameters as compared with earlier solutions, depending on how the rope pulleys are mounted on the elevator car and/or on the frame of the elevator car.
- these larger diverting pulleys may be especially those mounted in the upper part of the shaft.
- a more spacious rope passage arrangement will be achieved by using somewhat larger diverting pulleys in the upper part of the shaft.
- this also applies to elevators with machine above, not only to elevators with machine below.
- Fig. 3 presents a partially sectioned view of a rope pulley 200 applying the invention.
- the rope grooves 201 on the rim 206 of the rope pulley are covered by a coating 202.
- a space 203 for a bearing used to mount the rope pulley is also provided with holes 205 for bolts, allowing the rope pulley to be fastened by its side to an anchorage in the hoisting machine 6, e.g. to a rotating flange, to form a traction sheave 7, in which case no bearing separate from the hoisting machine is needed.
- the coating material used on the traction sheave and the rope pulleys may consist of rubber, polyurethane or a corresponding elastic material increasing friction.
- the material of the traction sheave and/or rope pulleys may also be so chosen that, together with the hoisting rope used, it forms a material pair such that the hoisting rope will bite firmly on the pulley after the coating on the pulley has been worn out. This ensures a sufficient grip between the rope pulley 200 and the hoisting rope 3 in an emergency where the coating 202 has been worn out from the rope pulley 200. This feature allows the elevator to maintain its functionality and operational reliability in the situation referred to.
- the traction sheave and/or the rope pulleys can also be manufactured in such manner that only the rim 206 of the rope pulley 200 is made of a material forming a grip increasing material pair with the hoisting rope 3.
- the use of strong hoisting ropes that are considerably thinner than normally allows the traction sheave and the rope pulleys to be designed to considerably smaller dimensions and sizes than when normal-sized ropes are used.
- This also makes it possible to use a motor of a smaller size with a lower torque as the drive motor of the elevator, which leads to a reduction of the acquisition cost of the motor.
- the traction sheave diameter is preferably 120-200 mm, but it may even be less than this.
- the traction sheave diameter depends on the thickness of the hoisting ropes used.
- the use of a small traction sheave e.g. in the case of elevators for a nominal load below 1000 kg, makes it possible to achieve a machine weight even as low as about one half of the weight of currently used machines, which means producing elevator machines weighing 100-150 kg or even less.
- the machine is understood as comprising at least the traction sheave, the motor, the machine housing structures and the brakes.
- the D/d ratio can be reduced if the number of ropes is increased at the same time, in which case the stress for each rope is smaller.
- reducing the D/d ratio considerably below 30 often radically reduces the service life of the rope, although this can be compensated for by using ropes of special construction. In practice it is very difficult to achieve a D/d ratio below 20, but it might be accomplished by using a rope specifically designed for this purpose, although such a rope would most probably be expensive.
- the weight of the elevator machine and its supporting elements used to hold the machine in place in the elevator shaft is at most about 1/5 of the nominal load. If the machine is exclusively or almost exclusively supported by one or more elevator and/or counterweight guide rails, then the total weight of the machine and its supporting elements may be less than about 1/6 or even less than 1/8 of the nominal load.
- Nominal load of an elevator means a load defined for elevators of a given size.
- the supporting elements of the elevator machine may include e.g. a beam, carriage or suspension bracket used to support or suspend the machine on/from a wall structure or ceiling of the elevator shaft or on the elevator or counterweight guide rails, or clamps used to hold the machine fastened to the sides of the elevator guide rails.
- the ratio of machine weight to nominal load is given for a conventional elevator in which the counterweight has a weight substantially equal to the weight of an empty car plus half the nominal load.
- the combined weight of the machine and its supporting elements may be only 75 kg when the traction sheave diameter is 160 mm and hoisting ropes having a diameter of 4 mm are used, in other words, the total weight of the machine and its supporting elements is about 1/8 of the nominal load of the elevator.
- the total weight of the machine and its supporting elements is about 150 kg, so in this case the machine and its supporting elements have a total weight equaling about 1/6 of the nominal load.
- the suspension ratio is 2:1
- the traction sheave diameter 240 mm and the hoisting rope diameter 6 mm the total weight of the machine and its supporting elements will be about 300 kg, i.e. about 1/7 of the nominal load.
- the hoisting rope suspension arrangements By varying the hoisting rope suspension arrangements, it is possible to reach a still lower total weight of the machine and its supporting elements. For example, when a 4:1 suspension ratio, a 160 mm traction sheave diameter and a 4 mm hoisting rope diameter are used in an elevator designed for a nominal load of 500 kg, a total weight of machine and its supporting elements of about 50 kg will be achieved. In this case, the total weight of the machine and its supporting elements is as small as only about 1/10 of the nominal load. When the traction sheave size is substantially reduced and a higher suspension ratio introduced, the motor torque output requirement falls to a fraction of the level required in the starting situation.
- Fig. 4 presents a solution in which the rope groove 301 is in a coating 302 which is thinner at the sides of the rope groove than at the bottom.
- the coating is placed in a basic groove 320 provided in the rope pulley 300 so that deformations produced in the coating by the pressure imposed on it by the rope will be small and mainly limited to the rope surface texture sinking into the coating.
- the rope pulley coating consists of rope groove-specific sub-coatings separate from each other, but considering manufacturing or other aspects it may be appropriate to design the rope pulley coating so that it extends continuously over a number of grooves.
- the coating By making the coating thinner at the sides of the groove than at its bottom, the strain imposed by the rope on the bottom of the rope groove while sinking into the groove is avoided or at least reduced. As the pressure cannot be discharged laterally but is directed by the combined effect of the shape of the basic groove 320 and the thickness variation of the coating 302 to support the rope in the rope groove 301, lower maximum surface pressures acting on the rope and the coating are also achieved.
- One method of making a grooved coating 302 like this is to fill the round-bottomed basic groove 320 with coating material and then form a half-round rope groove 301 in this coating material in the basic groove.
- the shape of the rope grooves is well supported and the load-bearing surface layer under the rope provides a better resistance against lateral propagation of the compression stress produced by the ropes.
- the lateral spreading or rather adjustment of the coating caused by the pressure is promoted by thickness and elasticity of the coating and reduced by hardness and eventual reinforcements of the coating.
- the coating thickness on the bottom of the rope groove can be made large, even as large as half the rope thickness, in which case a hard and inelastic coating is needed.
- the coating material may be clearly softer.
- An elevator for eight persons could be implemented using a coating thickness at the bottom of the groove equal to about one fifth of the rope thickness if the ropes and the rope load are chosen appropriately.
- the coating thickness should equal at least 2-3 times the depth of the rope surface texture formed by the surface wires of the rope.
- Such a very thin coating having a thickness even less than the thickness of the surface wire of the rope, will not necessarily endure the strain imposed on it.
- the coating must have a thickness larger than this minimum thickness because the coating will also have to receive rope surface variations rougher than the surface texture. Such a rougher area is formed e.g. where the level differences between rope strands are larger than those between wires.
- a suitable minimum coating thickness is about 1-3 times the surface wire thickness.
- this thickness definition leads to a coating at least about 1 mm thick. Since a coating on the traction sheave, which causes more rope wear than the other rope pulleys of the elevator, will reduce rope wear and therefore also the need to provide the rope with thick surface wires, the rope can be made smoother. Rope smoothness can naturally be improved by coating the rope with a material suited for this purpose, such as e.g. polyurethane or equivalent.
- the use of thin wires allows the rope itself to be made thinner, because thin steel wires can be manufactured from a stronger material than thicker wires. For instance, using 0.2 mm wires, a 4 mm thick elevator hoisting rope of a fairly good construction can be produced.
- the wires in the steel wire rope may preferably have a thickness between 0.15 mm and 0.5 mm, in which range there are readily available steel wires with good strength properties in which even an individual wire has a sufficient wear resistance and a sufficiently low susceptibility to damage.
- ropes made of round steel wires have been discussed. Applying the same principles, the ropes can be wholly or partly twisted from non-round profiled wires. In this case, the cross-sectional areas of the wires are preferably substantially the same as for round wires, i.e. in the range of 0.015 mm 2 - 0.2 mm 2 .
- wires in this thickness range it will be easy to produce steel wire ropes having a wire strength above about 2000 N/mm 2 and a wire cross-section of 0.015 mm 2 - 0.2 mm 2 and comprising a large cross-sectional area of steel material in relation to the cross-sectional area of the rope, as is achieved e.g. by using the Warrington construction.
- particularly well suited are ropes having a wire strength in the range of 2300 N/m 2 - 2700 N/mm 2 , because such ropes have a very large bearing capacity in relation to rope thickness while the high hardness of the strong wires involves no substantial difficulties in the use of the rope in elevators.
- a traction sheave coating well suited for such a rope is already clearly below 1 mm thick.
- the coating should be thick enough to ensure that it will not be very easily scratched away or pierced e.g. by an occasional sand grain or similar particle having got between the rope groove and the hoisting rope.
- a desirable minimum coating thickness, even when thin-wire hoisting ropes are used, would be about 0.5...1 mm.
- a coating having a thickness of the form A+Bcosa is well suited.
- a and B are constants so that A+B is the coating thickness at the bottom of the rope groove 301 and the angle a is the angular distance from the bottom of the rope groove as measured from the center of curvature of the rope groove cross-section. Constant A is larger than or equal to zero, and constant B is always larger than zero.
- the thickness of the coating growing thinner towards the edges can also be defined in other ways besides using the formula A+Bcosa so that the elasticity decreases towards the edges of the rope groove.
- the elasticity in the central part of the rope groove can also be increased by making an undercut rope groove and/or by adding to the coating on the bottom of the rope groove a portion of different material of special elasticity, where the elasticity has been increased, in addition to increasing the material thickness, by the use of a material that is softer than the rest of the coating.
- Fig. 5a, 5b and 5c present cross-sections of steel wire ropes used in the invention.
- the ropes in these figures contain thin steel wires 403, a coating 402 on the steel wires and/or partly between the steel wires and in Fig. 5a a coating 401 over the steel wires.
- the rope presented in Fig. 5b is an uncoated steel wire rope with a rubber-like filler added to its interior structure
- Fig. 5a presents a steel wire rope provided with a coating in addition to a filler added to the internal structure.
- the rope presented in Fig. 5c has a non-metallic core 404, which may be a solid or fibrous structure made of plastic, natural fiber or some other material suited for the purpose.
- a fibrous structure will be good if the rope is lubricated, in which case lubricant will accumulate in the fibrous core.
- the core thus acts as a kind of lubricant storage.
- the steel wire ropes of substantially round cross-section used in the elevator of the invention may be coated, uncoated and/or provided with a rubber-like filler, such as e.g. polyurethane or some other suitable filler, added to the interior structure of the rope and acting as a kind of lubricant lubricating the rope and also balancing the pressure between wires and strands.
- a filler makes it possible to achieve a rope that needs no lubrication, so its surface can be dry.
- the coating used in the steel wire ropes may be made of the same or nearly the same material as the filler or of a material that is better suited for use as a coating and has properties, such as friction and wear resistance properties, that are better suited to the purpose than a filler.
- the coating of the steel wire rope may also be so implemented that the coating material penetrates partially into the rope or through the entire thickness of the rope, giving the rope the same properties as the filler mentioned above.
- the use of thin and strong steel wire ropes according to the invention is possible because the steel wires used are wires of special strength, allowing the ropes to be made substantially thin as compared with steel wire ropes used before.
- the ropes presented in Fig. 5a and 5b are steel wire ropes having a diameter of about 4 mm.
- the thin and strong steel wire ropes of the invention preferably have a diameter of about 2.5 - 5 mm in elevators for a nominal load below 1000 kg, and preferably about 5 - 8 mm in elevators for a nominal load above 1000 kg.
- ropes thinner than those mentioned above can be used for corresponding loads, and at the same time a smaller and lighter elevator machine can be achieved.
- Fig. 6 illustrates the manner in which a rope pulley 502 connected to a horizontal beam 504 comprised in the structure supporting the elevator car 501 is placed in relation to the beam 504, said rope pulley being used to support the elevator car and associated structures.
- the rope pulley 502 presented in the figure may have a diameter equal to or less than the height of the beam 504 comprised in the structure.
- the beam 504 supporting the elevator car 501 may be located either below or above the elevator car.
- the rope pulley 502 may be placed completely or partially inside the beam 504, as shown in the figure.
- the hoisting ropes 503 of the elevator in the figure run as follows:
- the hoisting ropes 503 come to the coated rope pulley 502 connected to the beam 504 comprised in the structure supporting the elevator car 501, from which pulley the hoisting rope runs further, protected by the beam, e.g. in the hollow 506 inside the beam, under the elevator car and goes then further via a second rope pulley placed on the other side of the elevator car.
- the elevator car 501 rests on the beam 504 comprised in the structure, on vibration absorbers 505 placed between them.
- the beam 504 also acts as a rope guard for the hoisting rope 503.
- the beam 504 may be a C-, U-, I-, Z-section beam or a hollow beam or equivalent.
- traction sheaves and rope pulleys instead of being coated metal pulleys, may also be uncoated metal pulleys or uncoated pulleys made of some other material suited to the purpose.
- the metallic traction sheaves and rope pulleys used in the invention which are coated with a non-metallic material at least in the area of their grooves, may be implemented using a coating material consisting of e.g. rubber, polyurethane or some other material suited to the purpose.
- the elevator car, the counterweight and the machine unit may be laid out in the cross-section of the elevator shaft in a manner differing from the lay-out described in the examples.
- Such a different lay-out might be e.g. one in which the machine and the counterweight are located behind the car as seen from the shaft door and the ropes are passed under the car diagonally relative to the bottom of the car. Passing the ropes under the car in a diagonal or otherwise oblique direction relative to the form of the bottom provides an advantage when the suspension of the car on the ropes is to be made symmetrical relative to the center of mass of the elevator in other types of suspension lay-out as well.
- a statistical average or mean value - e.g. the geometrical or arithmetical mean value - of the thicknesses of all wires of a hoisting rope is understood.
- mean value the standard deviation. Gauss distribution, medium error square or deviation square method etc. could be used.
- average thickness describes the thickness of each wire of the rope. If wires of different thicknesses should be used, for the same reason the maximum wire thickness in the rope should preferably not exceed the factor 4, more preferably 3 or most preferably 2 of the average wire thickness.
