- reference numeral 12 denotes a main rope having one end portion fixedly connected to a top portion of the elevator shaft 1 by means of a first rope anchor 121 mounted on the ceiling of the elevator shaft 1 at a position vertically aligned with the first cage-mounted pulley 7, wherein the main rope 12 extends vertically downwardly from the first rope anchor 121, being then partially wound around the first cage-mounted pulley 7 and the second cage-mounted pulley 8 to extend vertically upwardly to be partially wound around the cage-associated turning pulley 10 and hence extend horizontally to be wound around the drive sheave 5 and hence around the counterweight-associated turning pulley 11, the main rope then extending vertically downwardly to be partially wound around the counterweight-mounted pulley 9 to extend again vertically upwardly to be finally connected fixedly to the top portion of the elevator shaft 1 by means of a second rope anchor 122 mounted on the ceiling of the elevator shaft 1 at a position vertically aligned with the counterweight-mounted pulley 9.
- the cage 2 and the counterweight 3 are moved up and down in the mutually opposite directions, i.e., one is moved upwardly with the other being moved downwardly, when the hoisting machine 4 is driven to thereby put into rotation the drive sheave 5. It is noted that the hoisting machine 4 is disposed at the top portion within the elevator shaft 1 with a machine room being spared, whereby the space for installing the elevator in a building is correspondingly reduced.
- JP-A-10-139321 In Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Publication No. 139321/1998 ( JP-A-10-139321 ), however, no consideration is paid to the disposition of a control console or panel and a speed governor although description is found concerning the disposition of the hoisting machine 4, the cage-associated turning pulley 10 and the counterweight-associated turning pulley 11.
- control panel and the speed governor Since it is unnecessary to provide the machine room separately from the elevator shaft, the control panel and the speed governor will have to be disposed internally of the elevator shaft in the conventional elevator apparatus. However, the space in which the control panel and the speed governor can be accommodated is limited to a space portion which is not covered by the space in which the cage 2 and the counterweight 3 are moved up and down and the space occupied by the guide rails.

- Reference numeral 12 denotes a main rope having one end portion fixedly connected to the mounting platform 15 by means of a first rope anchor 121, wherein the main rope 12 extends vertically downwardly from the first rope anchor 121, being then partially wound around the first cage-mounted pulley 7 and the second cage-mounted pulley 8 to extend vertically upwardly to be partially wound around the cage-associated turning pulley 10 and hence extend horizontally to be wound around the drive sheave 6 and hence around the counterweight-associated turning pulley 11, the main rope then extending vertically downwardly to be partially wound around the counterweight-mounted pulley 9 to extend again vertically upwardly to be finally connected fixedly to the mounting platform 15 by means of a second rope anchor 122 at the other end portion of the rope.

- numeral 18 denotes a governor flywheel which is disposed rotatably at a bottom portion of the elevator shaft, wherein an endless governor rope is spanned between a pulley of the speed governor 16 and the governor flywheel 18.
- the pulley of the speed governor 16 is caused to rotate in accompany with the up/down move of the cage 2. By detecting the rotation speed of the pulley of the speed governor 16, speed control or regulation is performed.
- the hoisting machine 4, the speed governor 16 and the control panel 17 are installed on the mounting platform 15. Additionally, the cage-associated turning pulley 10 and the counterweight-associated turning pulley 11 are also disposed on the platform 15. More specifically, the speed governor 16 is so disposed as to be positioned between the cage 2 and the wall of the elevator shaft 1 as viewed in the plan view such that the rotational plane of the pulley of the speed governor extends in parallel with the wall of the elevator shaft 1 and the cage 2. Such disposition is favorable in view of that the clearance space defined between the cage 2 and the wall of the elevator shaft 1 can be diminished.
- the control panel 17 is disposed between a portion of the main rope 12 which extends from the cage-associated turning pulley 10 to the drive sheave 5 and another portion of the main rope 12 which extends from the drive sheave 5 to the counterweight-associated turning pulley 11.
- the control panel 17 can be disposed in close vicinity to the hoisting machine 4.
- the disposition mentioned above is advantageous in making available the space for installing the control panel 17.
- the speed governors 16 and the control panels 17 are disposed between a bottom end of the mounting platform 15 and a top end of the hoisting machine 4. Accordingly, for installing the speed governor 16 and the control panel 17, any extraneous space is not required in the heightwise direction.
- the control panel 17 is disposed in such orientation that the dimensionally smallest one of the longitudinal side, the transverse side and the side thicknesswise of the control panel is positioned heightwise within the space defined between the ceiling of the cage and the ceiling of the elevator shaft.
- a cover 19 Disposed above the mounting platform 15 is a cover 19 for covering the hoisting machine 4, the speed governor 16 and the control panels 17. With the arrangement mentioned above, necessity of providing a casing for the control panel 17 can be evaded.
- the hoisting machine 4 since the hoisting machine 4, the speed governor 16 and the control panel 17 are installed on the mounting platform 15, these machineries need not be installed separately or individually in the elevator shaft upon construction of the elevator system, as a result of which the time required for constructing the whole elevator system can be shortened.
- the drive sheave 5 is rotated by driving the hoisting machine 4, whereby the cage 2 is moved upwardly with the counterweight 3 being moved downwardly or vice versa, i.e., the cage and the counterweight are moved in the opposite directions, respectively.
- the hoisting machine 4 is installed at the top portion in the elevator shaft 1. Accordingly, the machine room to be otherwise provided can be spared. This in turn means that the space afforded by a building for installing the elevator system can be reduced. Additionally, construction cost required for ensuring the space for accommodating installation of the elevator system can be reduced. In addition to the advantageous effects mentioned above, the height of the building can correspondingly be decreased, whereby such undesirable situation can be evaded that neighbors' right to sunshine is possibly injured.
- the speed governor 16 and the control panel 17 which are major equipment installed internally of the elevator shaft are disposed by making use of the vertical space required for installing the hoisting machine 4 (i.e., the space defined between the ceiling of the cage and the ceiling of the elevator shaft when the cage 2 is positioned at the highest level), very effective utilization of the space available within the elevator shaft can be realized.
- the hoisting machine 4, the speed governor 16 and the control panel 17 can aggregatively or collectively be disposed without interfering with other machineries. More specifically, since the hoisting machine, the speed governor and the control panel are installed in the space at the top portion of the elevator shaft (i.e.
- the major machineries such as the hoisting machine 4, the speed governor 16, the control panel 17 and others can aggregatively be arranged, whereby the space defined between the wall of the elevator shaft 1 and the cage 2 can be reduced.
- the size of the elevator shaft, the size of the counterweight, the size of the cage and the dimensions of the counterweight guide rails and the cage guide rails change in dependence on the number of passengers that the elevator cage can transport, the transportation speed and the like. Consequently, vacant space within the elevator shaft 1 will correspondingly change.
- the layout of the speed governor 16 and the control panel 17 has to be altered or modified remarkably in dependence on the capacity or capability of the elevator.
- the speed governor 16 and the control panel 17 are aggregatively or collectively disposed by making use of the space available between the ceiling of the cage and that of the elevator shaft when the cage 2 reaches the topmost level or floor.
- This space is less susceptible to the influence of the changes in respect to the size of the counterweight, the size of the cage and the dimensions of the counterweight guide rails and the cage guide rails. Consequently, remarkable change of the layout of the machineries in dependence on the capacity of the elevator system is not required, differing from the conventional elevator.
- the cage 2 is suspended by the main rope 12 spanned through the first cage-mounted pulley 7 and the second cage-mounted pulley 8 with the counterweight 3 being suspended by winding the main rope around the counterweight-mounted pulley 9.
- the cage 2 and the counterweight 3 are connected to each other directly by the main rope 12.
- a second embodiment of the invention is similar to the preceding embodiment 1 in respect to the basic structure. Accordingly, the following description will be made by putting emphasis on the differences. Except for the differences, the second embodiment is same as the embodiment 1.

- the cage-associated turning pulley 10 and the counterweight-associated turning pulley 11 are so disposed that the rotational planes thereof extend in parallel with each other. Further, a portion of the main rope 12 which extends from the cage-associated turning pulley 10 to the drive sheave 5 lies in parallel with a portion of the main rope 12 which extends from the drive sheave 5 to the counterweight-associated turning pulley 11. This arrangement is advantageous in that the contact angle of the main rope 12 wound around the drive sheave 5 can be increased.
- the counterweight-associated turning pulley 11 is disposed between the cage 2 and the elevator shaft wall as viewed in the plan view.
- the rotational plane of the counterweight-associated turning pulley 11 is also in parallel with the wall of the elevator shaft.
- the mounting platform 15 is a structure which is constituted by a first beam 151, a second beam 152, a third beam 153 for connecting these two beams 151 and 152, a fourth beam 154 and a fifth beam.
- the first and second beams 151 and 152 are fixedly secured to the cage guide rail 14 by means of a suspending member 20. More specifically, the cage guide rail 14 and the suspending member 20 are fixedly secured with a top bent portion of the suspending member 20 being securely hanged on a top end of the cage guide rail 14, as is illustrated in Fig. 8 . Further, the first beam 151 or the second beam 152 is securely hanged on a bottom bent portion of the suspending member 20. In this manner, the beams 151 and 152 are held, being suspended from the top end of the cage guide rail 14.
- the third beam has one end portion which is fixedly secured to the first beam 151 through an interposed rubber vibration isolator 22 and the other end portion which is fixedly secured to the second beam 152 through an interposed rubber vibration isolator 22, as is illustrated in Fig. 7 .
- the fourth beam 154 has one end portion fixedly secured to the fifth beam 155 which interconnects the first beam 151 and the second beam 152 with a rubber vibration isolator 22 being interposed therebetween, while the other end portion of the fourth beam 154 is fixedly secured to the second beam 152 with a rubber vibration isolator 22 being interposed therebetween, as illustrated in Fig. 8 .
- the fourth beam 154 is also integrally combined with the second beam 152 through the medium of the rubber vibration isolator 22.
- the speed governor 16 is fixedly mounted on the second beam 152, the cage-associated turning pulley 10 is fixedly mounted on the third beam 153 and the counterweight-associated turning pulley 11 is fixedly mounted on the fourth beam 154.

- the first rope anchor 121 is fixedly mounted on the second beam 152 with the second rope anchor 122 being fixedly mounted on the fifth beam 155.
- the hoisting machine 4, the cage-associated turning pulley 10 and the counterweight-associated turning pulley 11 fixedly mounted on the third beam 153 and the fourth beam 154 are supported as an integral unit of an anti-vibration structure.
- the third beam 153 and the fourth beam 154 represent a member on which the hoisting machine 4, the cage-associated turning pulley 10 and the counterweight-associated turning pulley 11 are mounted.
- the member mentioned above is fixedly secured to the first beam 151 and the second beam 152 through interposition of a vibration isolation member.
- the load imposed on the hoisting machine, the cage-associated turning pulley 10 and the counterweight-associated turning pulley 11 can be supported or sustained by the guide rails while transmission of vibrations generated by these machineries to the guide rails 14 can be suppressed.
- the arrangement described above is advantageous in that transmission of vibrations and noise to rooms located adjacent to the elevator system can be suppressed and thus elevator system of high quality can be realized.
- the vibrations of the hoisting machine 4, the cage-associated turning pulley 10 and the counterweight-associated turning pulley 11 can be suppressed from being transmitted to the cage guide rails 14, whereby comfortableness in riding on the cage can be enhanced.
- the third beam 153 and the fourth beam 154 serve not only for the installation of the machineries described above but also for the functions which will be described below.
- the third beam 153 and the fourth beam 154 cover both of the side surfaces and the top surface of the cage-associated turning pulley 10 or the counterweight-associated turning pulley 11.
- the beam mentioned above constitutes a turning pulley cover.
- the third beam 153 and the fourth beam 154 cooperate to constitute a rope duct which covers the portion of the main rope 12 which extends from the drive sheave 5 to the cage-associated turning pulley 10 or the counterweight-associated turning pulley 11.
- retainers 23 are mounted on the member including the third beam 153 and the fourth beam 154, as can be seen in Fig. 10 .
- the retainers 23 serve for preventing the main rope 12 wound around the drive sheave 5 from slipping out from a rope groove formed in the drive sheave 5. Owing to this arrangement, it is possible to mount and adjust the main rope 12 without any substantial difficulty from the front side even through the main rope is disposed deeply out of reach in the elevator shaft, which means that maintenance is facilitated.
- a noise-proof cover 24 is mounted on the member including the third beam 153 and the fourth beam 154. More specifically, the noise-proof cover 24 is so disposed as to project downwardly from the third/fourth beam for thereby enclosing the side surfaces of the hoisting machine 4 whose top is additionally covered with the member including the third beam 153 and the fourth beam 154.
- the cover structure can be simplified with the installation and the maintenance being facilitated.
- a plurality of lifting pulleys 25 are mounted on the mounting platform 15. Upon installation of the hoisting machine 4, it is possible to lift the hoisting machine 4 up to the top portion of the elevator shaft 1 with the aid of these lifting pulleys 25. Consequently, when the hoisting machine 4 is installed, the work of construction on a large scale such as installation of a crane on the building top in advance, transportation for disposition of the components through a hole provided in the ceiling of the elevator shaft and so forth are rendered unnecessary.
- a provisional support beam 26 for the hoisting machine 4 is also disposed on the mounting platform 15. Upon installation of the hoisting machine 4, the hoisting machine 4 is first lifted onto the provisional support beam 26 from the bottom portion of the elevator shaft by means of a conventional winch to be positioned provisionally on the provisional support beam 26, whereon the hoisting machine is lifted to the proper installation position with the aid of the lifting pulleys 25.
- the cage-associated turning pulley 10 is mounted on the third beam 153 in the manner described previously.
- the cage-associated turning pulley 10 is provided with a hollow shaft 28. By inserting a solid shaft 29 through the hollow shaft 28, the third beam 153 and the cage-associated turning pulley 10 can be secured together. By virtue of this mounting structure, the cage-associated turning pulley 10 can easily be mounted on the third beam 153 even in the case where the mounting platform of the third beam 153 for mounting thereon the cage-associated turning pulley 10 is shaped in a deep-drawn form so as to constitute a part of the noise-proof cover. Thus, not only the manufacturability but also the assemblability in the field can be enhanced.
- the counterweight-associated turning pulley 11 can be mounted on the fourth beam 154 in the similar manner.
- the mounting platform 15 is fixedly secured to the cage guide rail 14. It should however be appreciated that the mounting platform 15 may also be fixedly secured to the counterweight guide rail 13. Alternatively, it is equally possible to fixedly secure the mounting platform 15 only to the counterweight guide rail 13.
- the third beam 153 and the fourth beam 154 constitute the turning pulley covers and the rope ducts.
- either one of these beams may be designed to serve for these purposes.
- An embodiment 3 of the present invention partially differs from the embodiment 2 in respect to the structure of the mounting platform 15. Accordingly, the following description will be made on the differences. Except for the differences, the third embodiment is similar to the embodiment 1 or 2 and thus repeated description will be omitted.
- Figure 13 is a view showing a structure of the mounting platform 15 according to the third embodiment of the invention. This figure corresponds to Fig. 8 referenced in the course of description of the second embodiment.
- the third beam 153 and the fourth beam 154 have one end portions which are fixedly secured to the first beam 151 through the interposed rubber vibration isolator 22 and the other end portions which are fixedly secured to a housing of the hoisting machine 4. Further, the housing of the hoisting machine 4 is fixedly secured to the second beam 152 through the interposed rubber vibration isolator 22. With this arrangement, the housing of the hoisting machine 4 also constitutes a part of the mounting platform 15.
- the elevator apparatus includes a cage reciprocatively movable up and down within an elevator shaft, a counterweight reciprocatively movable up and down within the elevator shaft, a main rope suspending the cage and the counterweight, a hoisting machine having a drive sheave around which the main rope is wound, the drive sheave being disposed between a ceiling of the cage and that of the elevator shaft when the cage has reached a position corresponding to a topmost level, the cage and the counterweight being reciprocatively moved up and down through the medium of the main rope upon rotation of the drive sheave, a speed governor for detecting up/down speed of the cage, a control panel having disposed therein a device for controlling operation of the hoisting machine, and a mounting platform disposed between the ceiling of the cage and that of the elevator shaft when the cage has reached the topmost level, wherein the hoisting machine, the speed governor and the control panel are installed on the mounting platform.
- the elevator apparatus further includes a first turning pulley which is mounted on the mounting platform and around which a portion of the main rope extending from the cage to the drive sheave is wound, and a second turning pulley which is mounted on the mounting platform and around which other portion of the main rope extending from the drive sheave to the counterweight is wound, whereby effective utilization of the space available at the top portion of the elevator shaft can be realized.
- the hoisting machine is implemented in a thin structure having a size in thickness which is smaller than a size in width and disposed such that when the cage reaches the topmost level, the hoisting machine can be accommodated in thicknesswise orientation between the ceiling of the cage and that of the elevator shaft, whereby more effective utilization of the space available at the top portion of the elevator shaft can be achieved.
- control panel is disposed between a portion of the main rope extending from the first turning pulley to the drive sheave and other portion of the main rope extending from the drive sheave to the second turning pulley as viewed in a plan view (in a same plane orthogonal to a longitudinal axis of the elevator shaft), whereby the control panel can be disposed in close vicinity to the hoisting machine and hence the space for installation of the control panel can be ensured.
- a pulley of the speed governor is installed between the cage and a wall of the elevator shaft as viewed in a plan view (in a same plane orthogonal to a longitudinal axis of the elevator shaft) and disposed such that a rotational plane of the pulley extends approximately in parallel with a wall of the elevator shaft, whereby the size of the clearance space required for installing the speed governor between the cage and the wall of the elevator shaft can be reduced.
- control panel and the speed governor are disposed in a space extending from a bottom end of the mounting platform to a top end of the hoisting machine as viewed in a side elevational view (in a same plane parallel to a longitudinal axis of the elevator shaft), whereby the extra vertical space for disposing the speed governor and the control panel is not required.
- a cover covering the hoisting machine, the control panel and the speed governor are mounted on the mounting platform, whereby the housing or casing for the control panel can be spared.
- the elevator apparatus includes a cage reciprocatively movable up and down within an elevator shaft, being guided by a plurality of cage guide rails, a counterweight reciprocatively movable up and down within the elevator shaft, being guided by a plurality of counterweight guide rails, a main rope suspending the cage and the counterweight, a hoisting machine having a drive sheave around which the main rope is wound, the drive sheave being disposed such that when the cage has reached a position corresponding to a topmost level, a rotational plane of the drive sheave is positioned substantially horizontally between a ceiling of the cage and that of the elevator shaft, the cage and the counterweight being reciprocatively moved up and down through the medium of the main rope upon rotation of the drive sheave, a first turning pulley around which a portion of the main rope extending from the cage to the drive sheave is wound, a second turning pulley around which other portion of the main rope extending from the drive sheave to the counterweight is wound, first and
- the load imposed by the hoisting machine, the above-mentioned first turning pulley and the above-mentioned second turning pulley can be supported by the guide rails, while transmission of vibrations taking place in these machineries to the guide rails can be suppressed.
- first beam and the second beam are hanged on the cage guide rail and/or the counterweight guide rail. Owing to this arrangement, the space or installing the above-mentioned first beam the second beam is not required above the guide rails.
- the member mentioned above is provided with a lifting pulley for lifting the hoisting machine, installation of the hoisting machine can be facilitated.
- the above-mentioned member includes a third beam on which the first turning pulley is mounted and a fourth beam on which the second turning pulley is mounted, wherein at least one of the third beam and the fourth beam constitutes a pulley cover for the turning pulley, it is possible to protect the turning pulleys.
- the above-mentioned member constitutes a rope duct covering at least one of a portion of the main rope which extends from the drive sheave of the hoisting machine to the first turning pulley and other portion of the main rope which extends from the drive sheave of the hoisting machine to the second turning pulley, protection of the main rope can be realized.
- the present invention finds application to the elevator apparatus which includes a cage reciprocatively movable up and down within an elevator shaft, a counterweight reciprocatively movable up and down within the elevator shaft, a main rope suspending the cage and the counterweight, a hoisting machine having a drive sheave around which the main rope is wound, the drive sheave being disposed such that when the cage has reached a position corresponding to a topmost level, a rotational plane of the drive sheave is positioned substantially horizontally between a ceiling of the cage and that of the elevator shaft, the cage and the counterweight being reciprocatively moved up and down through the medium of the main rope upon rotation of the drive sheave, a speed governor for detecting up/down speed of the cage, a control panel having disposed therein a device for controlling operation of the hoisting machine.
