Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for installing a guide rail of an elevator system.
  • Elevator systems are usually arranged in an elevator shaft connecting several floors.
  • Such elevator systems include an elevator car and possibly a counterweight.
  • the elevator car and the counterweight can be moved in opposite directions along the elevator shaft.
  • Both the elevator car and the counterweight are guided on guide rails assigned to them.
  • a guide rail comprises a plurality of guide rail segments lined up next to one another, which are aligned and fixed one after the other in the elevator shaft during the installation of the guide rail.
  • positioning gauges are usually used and fastened both in a shaft pit of the elevator shaft and in a shaft head of the elevator shaft.
  • Such positioning gauges have means, for example, to attach guide lines.
  • Such guidelines are stretched along the elevator shaft after their installation and form an aid for aligning guide rail segments or guide rails.
  • a first guide rail segment is fixed in the shaft pit and aligned using the alignment line.
  • the alignment can be carried out in that the first guide rail segment is spaced from the guide line at a fixed distance along its entire length, which means that the guide rail segment is arranged parallel to the guide line.
  • further guide rail segments are lined up on the respective previously aligned and fixed guide rail segment, aligned and fixed with the help of the guide line.
  • the alignment of the guide rail segment can be carried out in such a way that the guide rail segment is arranged as parallel as possible to the alignment line.
  • This process of installing a single guide rail segment is repeated until the guide rail has the required length, that is, one last of the guide rail segments is aligned and fixed in the area of the shaft head or the shaft pit. During the entire installation of the guide rails, the guide line runs in a straight line stretched between these positioning gauges.
  • any building that has elevator shafts is subject to fluctuations. Such fluctuations are caused by external influences, for example solar radiation and / or wind.
  • the elevator shaft arranged in the building is correspondingly deformed in the course of the installation of the individual guide rail segments. As a result, the installed guide rail does not have a desired straight course.
  • the application of the method just described has the result that the guide rail, starting from the guide rail segment installed for the first time, is not necessarily arranged essentially parallel to the guide line. The reason for this is that the elevator shaft, due to external influences, may already have a different shape when aligning the second guide rail segment to be installed than was the case when the first guide rail segment was installed.
  • the distance formed between the lower section of the second guide rail segment and the guide line no longer corresponds to the guide distance when this second guide rail segment is aligned. Even if each individual guide rail segment was aligned parallel to the guide line, readjustments of the individual guide rail segments are accordingly necessary, which take a considerable amount of time.
  • the object is achieved by a method for installing a guide rail of an elevator system arranged in an elevator shaft, the guide rail comprising a plurality of lined up and aligned guide rail segments, the method comprising the following method steps: fixing a straightening element in the elevator shaft with respect to an aligned and attached first of the guide rail segments at a first point, wherein the first point is positioned on a route, which route is positioned by a horizontally directed parallel displacement of the route formed by the first guide rail segment, fixing the straightening element at a second point in the elevator shaft formed as a reference point, so that between the first and a straightening element section for aligning a second of the guide rail segments is formed at the second point, aligning the second guide rail segment relative to the straightening element cut off.
  • the distance formed by the first guide rail segment extends by definition along the guide section of the first guide rail segment.
  • a reference point identifies one of the locations in the elevator shaft which can be determined before the installation of the guide rail segments in the elevator shaft, usually within the shaft head or the shaft pit. The reference point can thus be determined immediately at the beginning of the installation of the entire guide rail. The position of the reference point is therefore independent of the later deformations of the elevator shaft due to external influences.
  • the reference point which can be retained during the entire installation of all guide rail segments of the guide rail, is predetermined by the target position of the uppermost guide rail segment of the guide rail to be installed, which is provided from the beginning of the installation.
  • the reference point is given on the one hand by the point in the shaft head / in the shaft pit at which point the guideway is intentionally aligned at the beginning of the installation, and on the other hand by the alignment distance of the guide element from this guideway.
  • the reference point can optionally be determined by means of a positioning gauge or some other position determining device. Alignment of the guide rail segment located in the immediate vicinity of the reference point on the basis of the alignment distance to the directional element thus results in the section of this guide rail segment in the immediate vicinity of the reference point being essentially correctly positioned in the elevator shaft.
  • the invention is based on the knowledge that the elevator shaft may fluctuate or be curved to different degrees as a result of the change in external influences, possibly in the course of a single day.
  • external influences can cause the shaft head to move horizontally by several centimeters. This effect occurs correspondingly more intensely with a comparatively high elevator shaft.
  • Failure to observe such displacements leads to the fact that the guide rail along its entire length, due to installation, is essentially not aligned parallel to the aligning element which is suitable for aligning guide rail segments and is fixed in the elevator shaft.
  • a re-alignment of the individual fastened guide rail segments that have already been aligned using the alignment element, which is necessary as a result, requires a great deal of time.
  • the alignment element is fixed at the first point in such a way that the alignment element, preferably in the immediate vicinity of the first point, is at an alignment distance from the first guide rail segment.
  • the straightening element is also fixed at the second point designed as a reference point. After the second guide rail segment has been lined up against the first aligned and fixed guide rail segment, the guide rail segment can be aligned parallel to the straightening element by means of the straightening distance. Line-up accordingly means that the second guide rail segment is fastened beforehand, that the guide sections of the two guide rail segments form a substantially joint-free guide path, this substantially joint-free guide path also remaining after the second guide rail segment has been fixed.
  • the directional element is designed as a laser beam and the second point is formed by a marking.
  • the straightening element can be designed as a straightening cord and attached to the second point by means of at least one fastening device in the elevator shaft. Such options are given to design the directional element. In the case of the directional element designed as a laser beam, an ideally straight course of the directional element section is also guaranteed at all times.
  • the guide line is tensioned in the elevator shaft and a gripping device is arranged at the first point, which gripping device prevents the guide line from moving at an angle to the course of the guide line. It can be achieved in this way that the guide line installed and tensioned in the elevator shaft before the installation of the guide rail begins, only has to be gripped and fixed along its previously tensioned length before a guide rail segment is aligned. Accordingly, the guide line can be stretched in advance by means of a plumb line.
  • the guide line can be tensioned by means of two fastening devices at two different reference points in the elevator shaft before the installation of the guide rail segments begins, wherein one of these fastening devices can be arranged at the second point designed as a reference point.
  • the second point is arranged in a shaft head of the elevator shaft.
  • the second point can be arranged in a shaft pit of the elevator shaft. According to this design variant, it is possible to install the guide rail segments of the guide rail starting from the shaft head in the case of the arrangement of the second point in the shaft pit or from the shaft pit in the case of the arrangement of the second point in the shaft head.
  • the second point is determined by means of a reference device preferably designed as a positioning gauge. This enables the second point located in the elevator shaft to be quickly located before the straightening element is fixed at this point. Installation of the guide rail is correspondingly accelerated with the aid of this process step.
  • the first point is arranged on a second route, which second route has a length equal to half the length of the first guide rail segment, this second route being achieved by a horizontally directed parallel displacement of the starting point at the transition from the first to the second guide rail segment formed impact point along the first
  • Guide rail segment arranged route is determined.
  • the second guide rail segment is attached to the first guide rail segment. It is advantageous that the straightening element is positioned with respect to the last aligned and attached first guide rail segment and accordingly deformations of the elevator shaft that occurred during the installation of the first guide rail segment do not additionally contribute to the misalignment of the second guide rail segment.
  • the second guide rail segment is aligned parallel to the fixed directional element section. This provides a simple way of aligning the second guide rail segment with the aid of the straightening element.
  • FIG. 1 shows an elevator system 2 arranged in an elevator shaft 12.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Installation einer Führungsschiene einer Aufzugsanlage.The invention relates to a method for installing a guide rail of an elevator system.

Aufzugsanlagen sind üblicherweise in einem mehrere Stockwerke verbindenden Aufzugsschacht angeordnet. Solche Aufzugsanlagen umfassen eine Aufzugskabine und gegebenenfalls ein Gegengewicht. Die Aufzugskabine und das Gegengewicht sind entlang des Aufzugsschachtes gegenläufig verfahrbar. Sowohl die Aufzugskabine als auch das Gegengewicht werden an ihnen zugeordneten Führungsschienen geführt. Eine solche Führungsschiene umfasst mehrere aneinandergereihte Führungsschienensegmente, die während der Installation der Führungsschiene zeitlich nacheinander im Aufzugsschacht ausgerichtet und fixiert werden. Üblicherweise werden zu diesem Zweck sowohl in einer Schachtgrube des Aufzugsschachtes als auch in einem Schachtkopf des Aufzugsschachtes Positionierungslehren eingesetzt und befestigt. Derartige Positionierungslehren weisen Mittel auf, um beispielsweise Richtschnuren daran zu befestigen. Solche Richtschnuren sind nach ihrer Installation entlang des Aufzugsschachtes gespannt und bilden ein Hilfsmittel zur Ausrichtung von Führungsschienensegmenten bzw. von Führungsschienen.Elevator systems are usually arranged in an elevator shaft connecting several floors. Such elevator systems include an elevator car and possibly a counterweight. The elevator car and the counterweight can be moved in opposite directions along the elevator shaft. Both the elevator car and the counterweight are guided on guide rails assigned to them. Such a guide rail comprises a plurality of guide rail segments lined up next to one another, which are aligned and fixed one after the other in the elevator shaft during the installation of the guide rail. For this purpose, positioning gauges are usually used and fastened both in a shaft pit of the elevator shaft and in a shaft head of the elevator shaft. Such positioning gauges have means, for example, to attach guide lines. Such guidelines are stretched along the elevator shaft after their installation and form an aid for aligning guide rail segments or guide rails.

Nach einer solchen Positionierung der Richtschnur wird im weiteren Verlauf der Installation der Führungsschiene ein erstes Führungsschienensegment in der Schachtgrube fixiert und anhand der Richtschnur ausgerichtet. Die Ausrichtung kann dabei vorgenommen werden, indem das erste Führungsschienensegment entlang seiner gesamten Länge mit einem festgelegten Richtabstand von der Richtschnur beabstandet ist, was bedeutet, dass das Führungsschienensegment parallel der Richtschnur angeordnet ist. Im Anschluss werden weitere Führungsschienensegmente an das jeweilig zuvor ausgerichtete und fixierte Führungsschienensegment angereiht, mit Hilfe der Richtschnur ausgerichtet und fixiert. Die Ausrichtung des Führungsschienensegmentes kann so vollzogen werden, dass das Führungsschienensegment möglichst parallel der Richtschnur angeordnet ist. Dieser Vorgang der Installation eines einzelnen Führungsschienensegmentes wird so oft wiederholt, bis die Führungsschiene die geforderte Länge aufweist, also ein letztes der Führungsschienensegmente im Bereich des Schachtkopfes bzw. der Schachtgrube ausgerichtet und fixiert ist. Dabei verläuft die Richtschnur während der gesamten Installation der Führungsschienen geradlinig gespannt zwischen diesen genannten Positionierungslehren.After the alignment line has been positioned in this way, in the further course of the installation of the guide rail, a first guide rail segment is fixed in the shaft pit and aligned using the alignment line. The alignment can be carried out in that the first guide rail segment is spaced from the guide line at a fixed distance along its entire length, which means that the guide rail segment is arranged parallel to the guide line. Subsequently, further guide rail segments are lined up on the respective previously aligned and fixed guide rail segment, aligned and fixed with the help of the guide line. The alignment of the guide rail segment can be carried out in such a way that the guide rail segment is arranged as parallel as possible to the alignment line. This process of installing a single guide rail segment is repeated until the guide rail has the required length, that is, one last of the guide rail segments is aligned and fixed in the area of the shaft head or the shaft pit. During the entire installation of the guide rails, the guide line runs in a straight line stretched between these positioning gauges.

Jegliche Aufzugsschächte aufweisende Gebäude sind Schwankungen unterworfen. Solche Schwankungen sind durch äussere Einflüsse, beispielsweise durch die Sonneneinstrahlung und/oder Wind, verursacht. Entsprechend verformt sich der in dem Gebäude angeordnete Aufzugsschacht im Verlaufe der Installation der einzelnen Führungsschienensegmente. Das führt dazu, dass die installierte Führungsschiene keinen angestrebten, geraden Verlauf aufweist. Zudem führt die Anwendung des soeben beschriebenen Verfahrens dazu, dass die Führungsschiene ausgehend vom erstinstallierten Führungsschienensegment nicht notwendigerweise im Wesentlichen parallel der Richtschnur angeordnet ist. Ursache ist, dass der Aufzugsschacht aufgrund der äusseren Einflüsse gegebenenfalls schon bei der Ausrichtung des zweiten zu installierenden Führungsschienensegmentes eine andere Form aufweist, als dies bei der Installation des ersten Führungsschienensegmentes der Fall war. Demzufolge entspricht der zwischen dem unteren Abschnitt des zweiten Führungsschienensegmentes und der Richtschnur ausgebildete Abstand bei der Ausrichtung dieses zweiten Führungsschienensegmentes nicht mehr dem Richtabstand. Selbst, wenn jedes einzelne Führungsschienensegment parallel der Richtschnur ausgerichtet wurde, sind demnach Nachjustierungen der einzelnen Führungsschienensegmente mit erheblichem Zeitaufwand notwendig.Any building that has elevator shafts is subject to fluctuations. Such fluctuations are caused by external influences, for example solar radiation and / or wind. The elevator shaft arranged in the building is correspondingly deformed in the course of the installation of the individual guide rail segments. As a result, the installed guide rail does not have a desired straight course. In addition, the application of the method just described has the result that the guide rail, starting from the guide rail segment installed for the first time, is not necessarily arranged essentially parallel to the guide line. The reason for this is that the elevator shaft, due to external influences, may already have a different shape when aligning the second guide rail segment to be installed than was the case when the first guide rail segment was installed. Consequently, the distance formed between the lower section of the second guide rail segment and the guide line no longer corresponds to the guide distance when this second guide rail segment is aligned. Even if each individual guide rail segment was aligned parallel to the guide line, readjustments of the individual guide rail segments are accordingly necessary, which take a considerable amount of time.

Jedes der Dokumente WO 2008/053068 A1 und WO 2009/156557 A1 offenbart ein Verfahren zur Installation einer Führungsschiene gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.Any of the documents WO 2008/053068 A1 and WO 2009/156557 A1 discloses a method for installing a guide rail according to the preamble of claim 1.

Daher ist es Aufgabe der Erfindung, ein Verfahren zur Installation einer Führungsschiene vorzuschlagen, welches einen geringeren Zeitaufwand für die Installation der Führungsschiene begründet.It is therefore the object of the invention to propose a method for installing a guide rail, which results in a lower expenditure of time for the installation of the guide rail.

Die Aufgabe wird gelöst durch ein Verfahren zur Installation einer Führungsschiene einer in einem Aufzugsschacht angeordneten Aufzugsanlage, wobei die Führungsschiene eine Vielzahl von aneinandergereihten und ausgerichteten Führungsschienensegmenten umfasst, das Verfahren umfassend die folgenden Verfahrensschritte: Fixieren eines Richtelementes im Aufzugsschacht bezüglich eines ausgerichteten und befestigten ersten der Führungsschienensegmente an einem ersten Punkt, wobei der erste Punkt auf einer Strecke positioniert ist, welche Strecke durch eine horizontal gerichtete Parallelverschiebung der durch das erste Führungsschienensegment gebildeten Strecke positioniert ist, Fixieren des Richtelementes an einem zweiten als Referenzpunkt ausgebildeten Punkt im Aufzugsschacht, so dass zwischen dem ersten und dem zweiten Punkt ein Richtelementabschnitt zur Ausrichtung eines zweiten der Führungsschienensegmente gebildet ist, Ausrichten des zweiten Führungsschienensegmentes relativ zum Richtelementabschnitt.The object is achieved by a method for installing a guide rail of an elevator system arranged in an elevator shaft, the guide rail comprising a plurality of lined up and aligned guide rail segments, the method comprising the following method steps: fixing a straightening element in the elevator shaft with respect to an aligned and attached first of the guide rail segments at a first point, wherein the first point is positioned on a route, which route is positioned by a horizontally directed parallel displacement of the route formed by the first guide rail segment, fixing the straightening element at a second point in the elevator shaft formed as a reference point, so that between the first and a straightening element section for aligning a second of the guide rail segments is formed at the second point, aligning the second guide rail segment relative to the straightening element cut off.

Die durch das erste Führungsschienensegment gebildete Strecke erstreckt sich definitionsgemäss entlang des Führungsabschnittes des ersten Führungsschienensegmentes. Ein solcher Referenzpunkt kennzeichnet eine der Stellen im Aufzugsschacht, die bereits vor der Installation der Führungsschienensegmente im Aufzugsschacht, üblicherweise innerhalb des Schachtkopfes bzw. der Schachtgrube, ermittelbar ist. Somit kann der Referenzpunkt unmittelbar zum Beginn der Installation der gesamten Führungsschiene ermittelbar sein. Die Position des Referenzpunktes ist somit unabhängig von den späteren Verformungen des Aufzugsschachtes aufgrund äusserer Einflüsse. Der Referenzpunkt, der während der gesamten Installation aller Führungsschienensegmente der Führungsschiene beibehaltbar ist, ist durch die von Beginn der Installation an vorgesehene Zielposition des obersten Führungsschienensegmentes der zu installierenden Führungsschiene vorgegeben. Das bedeutet, dass der Referenzpunkt einerseits durch denjenigen Punkt im Schachtkopf/in der Schachtgrube, auf welchen Punkt die Führungsbahn zu Beginn der Installation beabsichtigterweise ausgerichtet ist, und andererseits durch den Richtabstand des Führungselementes von dieser Führungsbahn, vorgegeben ist. Der Referenzpunkt kann gegebenenfalls mittels einer Positionierungslehre oder einer anderen Positionsermittlungsvorrichtung bestimmt werden. Eine Ausrichtung des in nächster Umgebung des Referenzpunktes befindlichen Führungsschienensegmentes anhand des Richtabstandes zum Richtelement führt somit dazu, dass der in nächster Umgebung des Referenzpunktes befindliche Abschnitt dieses Führungsschienensegmentes im Wesentlichen einwandfrei im Aufzugsschacht positioniert ist.The distance formed by the first guide rail segment extends by definition along the guide section of the first guide rail segment. Such a reference point identifies one of the locations in the elevator shaft which can be determined before the installation of the guide rail segments in the elevator shaft, usually within the shaft head or the shaft pit. The reference point can thus be determined immediately at the beginning of the installation of the entire guide rail. The position of the reference point is therefore independent of the later deformations of the elevator shaft due to external influences. The reference point, which can be retained during the entire installation of all guide rail segments of the guide rail, is predetermined by the target position of the uppermost guide rail segment of the guide rail to be installed, which is provided from the beginning of the installation. This means that the reference point is given on the one hand by the point in the shaft head / in the shaft pit at which point the guideway is intentionally aligned at the beginning of the installation, and on the other hand by the alignment distance of the guide element from this guideway. The reference point can optionally be determined by means of a positioning gauge or some other position determining device. Alignment of the guide rail segment located in the immediate vicinity of the reference point on the basis of the alignment distance to the directional element thus results in the section of this guide rail segment in the immediate vicinity of the reference point being essentially correctly positioned in the elevator shaft.

Der Erfindung liegt die Erkenntnis zugrunde, dass der Aufzugsschacht infolge der Veränderung äusserer Einflüsse gegebenenfalls im Laufe eines einzelnen Tages schwanken bzw. unterschiedlich stark gekrümmt sein kann. Die äusseren Einflüsse können infolgedessen eine horizontale Verschiebung des Schachtkopfes um mehrere Zentimeter bewirken. Dieser Effekt tritt bei einem vergleichsweise hohen Aufzugsschacht entsprechend verstärkt auf. Eine Nichtbeachtung solcher Verschiebungen führt dazu, dass die Führungsschiene entlang ihrer gesamten Länge installationsbedingt im Wesentlichen nicht parallel des beispielhaft als Richtschnur ausgebildeten zur Ausrichtung von Führungsschienensegmenten geeigneten im Aufzugsschacht fixierten Richtelementes ausgerichtet ist. Ein dadurch erforderliches erneutes Ausrichten der einzelnen befestigten schon einmal anhand des Richtelementes ausgerichteten Führungsschienensegmente erfordert einen hohen Zeitaufwand.The invention is based on the knowledge that the elevator shaft may fluctuate or be curved to different degrees as a result of the change in external influences, possibly in the course of a single day. As a result, external influences can cause the shaft head to move horizontally by several centimeters. This effect occurs correspondingly more intensely with a comparatively high elevator shaft. Failure to observe such displacements leads to the fact that the guide rail along its entire length, due to installation, is essentially not aligned parallel to the aligning element which is suitable for aligning guide rail segments and is fixed in the elevator shaft. A re-alignment of the individual fastened guide rail segments that have already been aligned using the alignment element, which is necessary as a result, requires a great deal of time.

Um diese Aufwendungen zu minimieren, wurde versucht, die äusseren Einflüsse schon bei der Ausrichtung des einzelnen Führungsschienensegmentes direkt nach dessen Anreihung an das vorher ausgerichtete und fixierte Führungsschienensegment zu berücksichtigen.In order to minimize these expenses, an attempt was made to take into account the external influences when aligning the individual guide rail segments directly after they were aligned with the previously aligned and fixed guide rail segment.

Die Fixierung des Richtelementes am ersten Punkt wird derart vorgenommen, dass das Richtelement, vorzugsweise in unmittelbarer Umgebung des ersten Punktes, einen Richtabstand zum ersten Führungsschienensegment aufweist. Ebenso wird das Richtelement am zweiten als Referenzpunkt ausgebildeten Punkt fixiert. Nach einem Anreihen des zweiten Führungsschienensegmentes an das erste ausgerichtete und fixierte Führungsschienensegment kann das Führungsschienensegment parallel des Richtelementes mittels des Richtabstandes ausgerichtet werden. Anreihen bedeutet demnach, dass das zweite Führungsschienensegment vorab befestigt wird, dass die Führungsabschnitte der beiden Führungsschienensegmente eine im Wesentlichen stossfreie Führungsbahn ausbilden, wobei diese im Wesentlichen stossfreie Führungsbahn ebenso nach der Fixierung des zweiten Führungsschienensegmentes bestehen bleibt.The alignment element is fixed at the first point in such a way that the alignment element, preferably in the immediate vicinity of the first point, is at an alignment distance from the first guide rail segment. The straightening element is also fixed at the second point designed as a reference point. After the second guide rail segment has been lined up against the first aligned and fixed guide rail segment, the guide rail segment can be aligned parallel to the straightening element by means of the straightening distance. Line-up accordingly means that the second guide rail segment is fastened beforehand, that the guide sections of the two guide rail segments form a substantially joint-free guide path, this substantially joint-free guide path also remaining after the second guide rail segment has been fixed.

Somit kann sichergestellt werden, dass das letzte im Aufzugsschacht gemäss diesem Verfahren auszurichtende Führungsschienensegment parallel des Richtelementes mittels des Richtabstandes ausgerichtet werden kann, und ebenso das in nächster Umgebung des Referenzpunktes befindliche Führungsschienensegment im Wesentlichen entlang einer späteren fertig ausgerichteten Führungsbahn im Aufzugsschacht positioniert ist. Demnach kann der Aufwand für die Nachjustierung der Führungsschiene weitgehend verringert werden.This ensures that the last guide rail segment to be aligned in the elevator shaft according to this method can be aligned parallel to the straightening element by means of the alignment distance, and that the guide rail segment in the immediate vicinity of the reference point is also positioned essentially along a later fully aligned guide track in the elevator shaft. Accordingly, the effort for readjusting the guide rail can be largely reduced.

Bei einer Weiterbildung des Verfahrens wird das Richtelement als Laserstrahl ausgebildet und der zweite Punkt durch eine Markierung gebildet. Alternativ dazu kann das Richtelement als Richtschnur ausgebildet und am zweiten Punkt mittels mindestens einer Befestigungsvorrichtung im Aufzugsschacht befestigt sein. Derartig sind Möglichkeiten gegeben, dass Richtelement zu gestalten. Bei dem als Laserstrahl ausgebildeten Richtelement ist zudem zu jedem Zeitpunkt ein ideal geradliniger Verlauf des Richtelementabschnittes garantiert.In a development of the method, the directional element is designed as a laser beam and the second point is formed by a marking. As an alternative to this, the straightening element can be designed as a straightening cord and attached to the second point by means of at least one fastening device in the elevator shaft. Such options are given to design the directional element. In the case of the directional element designed as a laser beam, an ideally straight course of the directional element section is also guaranteed at all times.

Bei einer Weiterbildung des Verfahrens wird die Richtschnur im Aufzugsschacht gespannt und im ersten Punkt wird eine Greifvorrichtung angeordnet, welche Greifvorrichtung eine winklig zum Verlauf der Richtschnur gerichtete Bewegung der Richtschnur verhindert. Derart kann erreicht werden, dass die vor Beginn der Installation der Führungsschiene im Aufzugsschacht installierte und gespannte Richtschnur vor der Ausrichtung eines Führungsschienensegments lediglich entlang ihrer vorab gespannten Länge gegriffen und fixiert werden muss. Demnach kann die Richtschnur vorab mittels Lot gespannt sein. Alternativ kann die Richtschnur mittels zweier Befestigungsvorrichtungen vor Beginn der Installation der Führungsschienensegmente an zwei verschiedenen Referenzpunkten im Aufzugsschacht gespannt sein, wobei eine dieser Befestigungsvorrichtung am zweiten als Referenzpunkt ausgebildeten Punkt angeordnet sein kann. Das bedeutet, dass ein erstes Ende der Richtschnur, welches vor der Ausrichtung des nunmehr ausgerichteten Führungsschienensegmentes fixiert wurde, weder deinstalliert und wiederum neu installiert noch die Richtschnur erneut gespannt werden muss.In a further development of the method, the guide line is tensioned in the elevator shaft and a gripping device is arranged at the first point, which gripping device prevents the guide line from moving at an angle to the course of the guide line. It can be achieved in this way that the guide line installed and tensioned in the elevator shaft before the installation of the guide rail begins, only has to be gripped and fixed along its previously tensioned length before a guide rail segment is aligned. Accordingly, the guide line can be stretched in advance by means of a plumb line. Alternatively, the guide line can be tensioned by means of two fastening devices at two different reference points in the elevator shaft before the installation of the guide rail segments begins, wherein one of these fastening devices can be arranged at the second point designed as a reference point. This means that a first end of the guide line, which was fixed before the alignment of the now aligned guide rail segment, does not have to be uninstalled and reinstalled, nor does the guide line have to be tensioned again.

Bei einer Weiterbildung des Verfahrens wird der zweite Punkt in einem Schachtkopf des Aufzugsschachtes angeordnet. Alternativ dazu kann der zweite Punkt in einer Schachtgrube des Aufzugsschachtes angeordnet sein. Entsprechend dieser Ausgestaltungvarianten ist es möglich, die Führungsschienensegmente der Führungsschiene beginnend vom Schachtkopf im Falle der Anordnung des zweiten Punktes in der Schachtgrube oder von der Schachtgrube im Falle der Anordnung des zweiten Punktes im Schachtkopf aus zu installieren.In a further development of the method, the second point is arranged in a shaft head of the elevator shaft. Alternatively, the second point can be arranged in a shaft pit of the elevator shaft. According to this design variant, it is possible to install the guide rail segments of the guide rail starting from the shaft head in the case of the arrangement of the second point in the shaft pit or from the shaft pit in the case of the arrangement of the second point in the shaft head.

Bei einer Weiterbildung des Verfahrens wird der zweite Punkt mittels einer vorzugsweise als einer Positionierungslehre ausgebildeten Referenzvorrichtung ermittelt. Derart ist ermöglicht, dass der zweite im Aufzugsschacht befindliche Punkt vor einer Fixierung des Richtelementes an diesem Punkt schnell lokalisiert werden kann. Entsprechend wird mit Hilfe dieses Verfahrensschrittes eine Installation der Führungsschiene beschleunigt.In a further development of the method, the second point is determined by means of a reference device preferably designed as a positioning gauge. This enables the second point located in the elevator shaft to be quickly located before the straightening element is fixed at this point. Installation of the guide rail is correspondingly accelerated with the aid of this process step.

Bei einer Weiterbildung des Verfahrens wird der erste Punkt auf einer zweiten Strecke angeordnet, welche zweite Strecke eine der halben Länge des ersten Führungsschienensegmentes gleiche Länge aufweist, wobei diese zweite Strecke durch eine horizontal gerichtete Parallelverschiebung der ausgehend von einem am Übergang von dem ersten zum zweiten Führungsschienensegment ausgebildeten Stosspunkt entlang des erstenIn a further development of the method, the first point is arranged on a second route, which second route has a length equal to half the length of the first guide rail segment, this second route being achieved by a horizontally directed parallel displacement of the starting point at the transition from the first to the second guide rail segment formed impact point along the first

Führungsschienensegmentes angeordneten Strecke ermittelt wird.Guide rail segment arranged route is determined.

Derart kann erreicht werden, dass eine zum Zeitpunkt der Ausrichtung des zweiten Führungsschienensegmentes, aufgrund äusserer Einflüsse mangelhaft erscheinende Ausrichtung des ersten Führungsschienensegmentes nicht die Ausrichtung des zweiten Führungsschienensegmentes beeinflusst. Dieser Vorteil ergibt sich in erhöhtem Mass dann, wenn die Installation der Führungsschiene nach der Fixierung und Ausrichtung des ersten Führungsschienensegmentes erst am Morgen des darauffolgenden Tages fortgesetzt wird. In einem solchen Fall hat sich die Ausrichtung des Aufzugsschachtes über Nacht durch beispielhaft die veränderte Sonneneinstrahlung verändert.In this way it can be achieved that an alignment of the first guide rail segment which appears to be defective at the time of alignment of the second guide rail segment due to external influences does not influence the alignment of the second guide rail segment. This advantage arises to a greater extent if the installation of the guide rail is not continued until the morning of the following day after the first guide rail segment has been fixed and aligned. In such a case, the alignment of the elevator shaft has changed overnight due to the changed solar radiation, for example.

Bei einer Weiterbildung des Verfahrens wird das zweite Führungsschienensegment an das erste Führungsschienensegment angereiht. Vorteilhaft ist, dass das Richtelement bezüglich des zuletzt ausgerichteten und befestigten ersten Führungsschienensegmentes positioniert wird und demnach Verformungen des Aufzugsschachtes, die während der Installation des ersten Führungsschienensegmentes auftraten, nicht zusätzlich zur Fehlausrichtung des zweiten Führungsschienensegmentes beitragen.In a further development of the method, the second guide rail segment is attached to the first guide rail segment. It is advantageous that the straightening element is positioned with respect to the last aligned and attached first guide rail segment and accordingly deformations of the elevator shaft that occurred during the installation of the first guide rail segment do not additionally contribute to the misalignment of the second guide rail segment.

Bei einer Weiterbildung des Verfahrens wird das zweite Führungsschienensegment parallel zum fixierten Richtelementabschnitt ausgerichtet. Derart ist eine einfache Möglichkeit gegeben, das zweite Führungsschienensegment anhand des Richtelementes auszurichten.In a further development of the method, the second guide rail segment is aligned parallel to the fixed directional element section. This provides a simple way of aligning the second guide rail segment with the aid of the straightening element.

Figur 1 zeigt eine in einem Aufzugsschacht 12 angeordnete Aufzugsanlage 2. Die Aufzugsanlage 2 umfasst eine Aufzugskabine 32, eine Vielzahl von Schachttüren 40.1, 40.2, 40.3, einen Antrieb 36. Darüber hinaus kann die Aufzugsanlage 2 ein Gegengewicht 34 aufweisen. Der Aufzugsschacht 12 weist eine an seinem unteren Ende angeordnete Schachtgrube 13 und mindestens eine den Aufzugsschacht 12 seitlich begrenzende Schachtwand auf. Der Aufzugsschacht 12 ist an seinem unteren Ende durch einen Schachtboden 28 begrenzt. Der Aufzugsschacht 12 kann zusätzlich an seinem oberen Ende einen Schachtkopf 14 mit einer den Aufzugsschacht 12 begrenzenden Schachtdecke 25 aufweisen. Die Aufzugskabine 32 ist entlang des Aufzugsschachtes 12 mittels des Antriebes 36 verfahrbar. Gegebenenfalls ist das Gegengewicht 34 gegenläufig zur Aufzugskabine 32 verfahrbar. Die Aufzugskabine 32 bzw. das Gegengewicht 34 sind an nicht dargestellten Führungsschienen geführt. Eine solche Führungsschiene umfasst mehrere aneinandergereihte und ausgerichtet fixierte Führungsschienensegmente. Figure 1 shows an elevator system 2 arranged in an elevator shaft 12. The elevator system 2 comprises an elevator car 32, a plurality of shaft doors 40.1, 40.2, 40.3, and a drive 36. In addition, the elevator system 2 can have a counterweight 34. The elevator shaft 12 has a shaft pit 13 arranged at its lower end and at least one shaft wall laterally delimiting the elevator shaft 12. The elevator shaft 12 is delimited at its lower end by a shaft floor 28. The elevator shaft 12 can additionally have at its upper end a shaft head 14 with a shaft ceiling 25 delimiting the elevator shaft 12. The elevator car 32 can be moved along the elevator shaft 12 by means of the drive 36. If necessary, the counterweight 34 can be moved in the opposite direction to the elevator car 32. The elevator car 32 and the counterweight 34 are guided on guide rails (not shown). Such a guide rail comprises a plurality of guide rail segments lined up and fixed in an aligned manner.

Figur 1b zeigt den Querschnitt eines solchen Führungsschienensegmentes 8, 9, 10 bzw. einer solchen aus diesen Führungsschienensegmenten 8, 9, 10 zusammengesetzte Führungsschiene. Das Führungsschienensegment 8, 9, 10 weist einen Befestigungsabschnitt 11.1 zur Fixierung des Führungsschienensegmentes 8, 9, 10 im Aufzugsschacht und einen Führungsabschnitt 11.2 zur Führung der Aufzugskabine bzw. des Gegengewichtes auf. Bei einer Führungsschiene, die mehrere Führungsschienensegmenten 8, 9, 10 umfasst, bilden die Führungsabschnitte 11.2 der einzelnen Führungsschienensegmente 8, 9, 10 eine im Wesentlichen gerade Führungsbahn. Das heisst, dass durch die Übergänge zwischen den einzelnen Führungsschienensegmenten 8, 9, 10 verursachte ruckhafte Bewegungen während einer Fahrt der Aufzugskabine entlang der Führungsschiene weitgehend reduziert sind. Figure 1b shows the cross section of such a guide rail segment 8, 9, 10 or such a guide rail composed of these guide rail segments 8, 9, 10. The guide rail segment 8, 9, 10 has a fastening section 11.1 for fixing the guide rail segment 8, 9, 10 in the elevator shaft and a guide section 11.2 for guiding the elevator car or the counterweight. In the case of a guide rail that comprises a plurality of guide rail segments 8, 9, 10, the guide sections 11.2 of the individual guide rail segments 8, 9, 10 form a substantially straight guide track. That means that through the transitions between Jerky movements caused by the individual guide rail segments 8, 9, 10 during a journey of the elevator car along the guide rail are largely reduced.

Die Figuren 2a, 2b, 2c zeigen einen durch äussere Einflüsse verformten bzw. von der Senkrechten abweichend ausgerichteten Aufzugsschacht 12 zu verschiedenen Zeitpunkten einer Installation einer Führungsschiene. Derartige äussere Einflüsse können u.a. durch wechselnde klimatische Bedingungen wie veränderte Sonneneinstrahlung oder wechselnde Windverhältnisse gegeben sein. Der Grad der Verformung bzw. der von der Senkrechten abweichenden Ausrichtung ist abhängig vom Ausmass der äusseren Einflüsse zum jeweilig betrachteten Zeitpunkt. Die in den Figuren 2a, 2b, 2c dargestellten Verformungen bzw. die von der Senkrechten abweichenden Ausrichtungen der Aufzugsschächte 12 sind in übertriebenem Mass abgebildet, um den sich daraus ergebenden Sachverhalt kenntlich zu machen.The Figures 2a , 2b, 2c show an elevator shaft 12 that is deformed by external influences or that is oriented deviating from the vertical at different times during installation of a guide rail. Such external influences can be given, among other things, by changing climatic conditions such as changed solar radiation or changing wind conditions. The degree of deformation or the orientation deviating from the vertical depends on the extent of the external influences at the point in time considered. The ones in the Figures 2a , 2b, 2c The deformations shown or the orientations of the elevator shafts 12 deviating from the vertical are shown in an exaggerated manner in order to make the resulting facts clear.

Im Aufzugsschacht 12 ist eine Richtschnur 20 fixiert, wobei die Richtschnur 20 an einem ersten Referenzpunkt 22 und an einem zweiten Referenzpunkt 24 fixiert ist. In der Schachtgrube 13 ist eine den ersten Referenzpunkt 22 kennzeichnende erste Positionierungslehre 51 angeordnet. Im Schachtkopf 14 ist eine den zweiten Referenzpunkt 24 kennzeichnende zweite Positionierungslehre 52 angeordnet. Beide Referenzpunkte können im Aufzugsschacht 12 auch unabhängig von solchen Positionierungslehren 51, 52 bestimmt werden oder derartige Positionierungslehren 51, 52 können nach der Bestimmung der Referenzpunkte 22, 24 zur Befestigung der Richtschnur 20 entfernt werden. Die Richtschnur 20 ist zwischen beiden Referenzpunkten 22, 24 gespannt und weist den äusseren Einflüssen zufolge eine von der Senkrechten abweichende Ausrichtung auf.A guide line 20 is fixed in the elevator shaft 12, the guide line 20 being fixed at a first reference point 22 and at a second reference point 24. A first positioning jig 51, which characterizes the first reference point 22, is arranged in the shaft pit 13. A second positioning jig 52, which characterizes the second reference point 24, is arranged in the shaft head 14. Both reference points can also be determined in the elevator shaft 12 independently of such positioning gauges 51, 52, or such positioning gauges 51, 52 can be removed after determining the reference points 22, 24 for fastening the guide line 20. The guiding line 20 is stretched between the two reference points 22, 24 and, as a result of the external influences, has an orientation that deviates from the vertical.

Figur 2a zeigt den Aufzugsschacht 12 unmittelbar, nachdem ein erstes der die Führungsschiene bildenden Führungsschienensegmente 8 anhand der Richtschnur 20 mittels eines Richtabstandes ausgerichtet und fixiert ist. Ein solches Führungsschienensegment 8 gilt üblicherweise als ausgerichtet, wenn sowohl ein oberer Abschnitt 8" als auch ein unterer Abschnitt 8' des Führungsschienensegmentes 8 einen gleichen Abstand zur Richtschnur 20 aufweisen. Figure 2a shows the elevator shaft 12 immediately after a first of the guide rail segments 8 forming the guide rail has been aligned and fixed using the guide line 20 by means of a guide distance. Such a guide rail segment 8 is usually considered to be aligned when both an upper section 8 ″ and a lower section 8 ′ of the guide rail segment 8 are at the same distance from the guide line 20.

Entsprechend der gemäss Figur 2a gespannten Richtschnur 20 weist das erste Führungsschienensegment 8 keine senkrechte Ausrichtung auf, da der Aufzugsschacht 12 und damit die Richtschnur 20 aufgrund der äusseren Bedingungen nicht senkrecht ausgerichtet ist. Da der Aufzugsschacht 12 gemäss Figur 2a ebenso eine Krümmung aufweist, kann das Führungsschienensegment 8 selbst bei einer zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt möglichen sowohl senkrechten als auch krümmungslosen Ausrichtung des Aufzugsschachtes 12 eine von der Senkrechten abweichende Ausrichtung aufweisen.According to the Figure 2a When the guiding line 20 is tensioned, the first guide rail segment 8 does not have a vertical orientation, since the elevator shaft 12 and thus the guiding line 20 are not oriented vertically due to the external conditions. Since the elevator shaft 12 according to Figure 2a also has a curvature, the guide rail segment 8 can have an orientation deviating from the vertical even if the elevator shaft 12 is oriented both perpendicular and curvature-free at a later point in time.

Die Figur 2b und 2c zeigen den in Figur 2a gezeigten Aufzugsschacht 12 zu jeweilig späteren Zeitpunkten der Installation der Führungsschiene, wobei die in diesen Figuren 2b, 2c dargestellte Installation der Führungsschiene bzw. der Führungsschienensegmente nach einem bekannten Verfahren ausgeführt ist.The Figures 2b and 2c show the in Figure 2a shown elevator shaft 12 at later times of the installation of the guide rail, the in these Figures 2b, 2c Installation of the guide rail or the guide rail segments shown is carried out according to a known method.

Figur 2b zeigt den Aufzugsschacht 12, in dem das erste Führungsschienensegment 8 gemäss der gemäss Figur 2a erfolgten Beschreibung ausgerichtet und fixiert ist. Ein zweites Führungsschienensegment 9 wird an das erste Führungsschienensegment 8 an einem Stosspunkt 26 angereiht, das heisst derart vorab befestigt, dass die Führungsabschnitte des ersten und des zweiten Führungsschienensegmentes 8, 9 eine im Wesentlichen stossfreie Führungsbahn ergeben. Aus der im Vergleich zur während der Ausrichtung des ersten Führungsschienensegmentes 8 veränderten Form des Aufzugsschachtes 12 ergibt sich ein vom Richtabstand abweichender, gegebener Abstand des unteren Abschnittes 9' des zweiten Führungsschienensegmentes 9 zur Richtschnur 20. Bei der anschliessenden Ausrichtung des zweiten Führungsschienensegmentes 9 wird das zweite Führungsschienensegment 9 parallel zur Richtschnur 20 ausgerichtet fixiert. Das heisst, dass der obere Abschnitt 9" des zweiten Führungsschienensegmentes 9 den gleichen gegebenen Abstand zur Richtschnur 20 aufweist wie der untere Abschnitt 9' des zweiten Führungsschienensegmentes 9. Daraus resultiert, dass die Führungsbahn am Stosspunkt 26 einen Knick aufweist. Figure 2b shows the elevator shaft 12 in which the first guide rail segment 8 according to FIG Figure 2a is aligned and fixed after the description. A second guide rail segment 9 is lined up on the first guide rail segment 8 at a joint point 26, that is to say fastened in advance in such a way that the guide sections of the first and second guide rail segments 8, 9 result in a substantially joint-free guide track. The change in the shape of the elevator shaft 12 during the alignment of the first guide rail segment 8 results in a given distance between the lower section 9 'of the second guide rail segment 9 and the guide line 20 that differs from the target distance. During the subsequent alignment of the second guide rail segment 9, the second Guide rail segment 9 is fixed aligned parallel to the guide line 20. This means that the upper section 9 ″ of the second guide rail segment 9 has the same given distance from the guide line 20 as the lower section 9 ′ of the second guide rail segment 9. This results in the guide track having a kink at the impact point 26.

Figur 2c zeigt den Aufzugsschacht 12, in dem das erste und das zweite Führungsschienensegment 8, 9 sowie weitere Führungsschienensegmente 9.1, 9.2 im Aufzugsschacht 12 während des weiteren Verlaufs der Installation der Führungsschiene angereiht, ausgerichtet und fixiert worden sind. Die weiteren Führungsschienensegmente 9.1, 9.2 sind wie die das erste und das zweite Führungsschienensegment 8, 9 ebenso gemäss der Beschreibung zu Figur 2b installiert. Gemäss einer solchen Installation der einzelnen Führungsschienensegmente 8, 9, 9.1, 9.2 weist die Führungsbahn der Führungsschiene an den einzelnen zwischen den Führungsschienensegmenten 8, 9, 9.1, 9.2 angeordneten Stosspunkten 26 unterschiedlich stark ausgeprägte Knicke auf. Figure 2c shows the elevator shaft 12, in which the first and the second guide rail segments 8, 9 and further guide rail segments 9.1, 9.2 in the elevator shaft 12 have been lined up, aligned and fixed during the further course of the installation of the guide rail. The other guide rail segments 9.1, 9.2, like the first and second guide rail segments 8, 9, are also according to the description to Figure 2b Installed. According to such an installation of the individual guide rail segments 8, 9, 9.1, 9.2, the guide track of the guide rail at the individual impact points 26 arranged between the guide rail segments 8, 9, 9.1, 9.2 has kinks of different degrees.

Die gemäss der Beschreibung zu Figur 2b ausgeführte Installation der weiteren Führungsschienensegmente 9.1, 9.2 führt dazu, dass das oberste bereits installierte Führungsschienensegment 9.2 ggf. einen übermässig hohen Abstand zur Richtschnur 20 und damit zur idealen Position 9.2a dieses Führungsschienensegmentes 9.2 aufweist. Da der dargestellte vorzugsweise im Schachtkopf 14 angeordnete Referenzpunkt 24 die Position kennzeichnet, zu der die aus den Führungsschienensegmenten 8, 9, 9.1, 9.2 zusammengesetzte Führungsschiene ausgehend vom Referenzpunkt 22 ausgerichtet sein muss, wäre das letzte zu installierende Führungsschienensegment 10 dieser Führungsschiene derart zu installieren bzw. befestigen, dass am Stosspunkt 26.1 ein gravierender Richtungswechsel der Führungsbahn der Führungsschiene auftritt. Entsprechend ist gemäss dem in Figuren 2b beschriebenen Vorgehen eine Nachjustierung aller Führungsschienensegmente 8, 9, 9.1, 9.2 in erhöhtem Masse notwendig. Eine Vernachlässigung des Richtabstandes in unmittelbarer Umgebung des oberen Referenzpunktes 24 würde zur Fixierung des zuletzt zu installierenden Führungsschienensegmentes 10 in einer in Figur 2c dargestellten Position 10' führen. Leicht erkennbar ist, dass die gemäss den Positionen der Führungsschienensegmente 8, 9, 9.1, 9.2, 10' gebildete Führungsschiene entlang ihrer gesamten Länge im Wesentlichen nicht parallel der Richtschnur ausgerichtet wäre.According to the description too Figure 2b Executed installation of the further guide rail segments 9.1, 9.2 results in the top already installed guide rail segment 9.2 possibly having an excessively high distance from the guide line 20 and thus from the ideal position 9.2a of this guide rail segment 9.2. Since the illustrated reference point 24, which is preferably arranged in the shaft head 14, identifies the position to which the guide rail composed of the guide rail segments 8, 9, 9.1, 9.2 must be oriented starting from the reference point 22, the last guide rail segment 10 of this guide rail to be installed would have to be installed or . fasten so that there is a serious change in direction of the guide track of the guide rail at the impact point 26.1. Accordingly, according to the in Figures 2b described procedure a readjustment of all guide rail segments 8, 9, 9.1, 9.2 to an increased extent necessary. Neglecting the alignment distance in the immediate vicinity of the upper reference point 24 would fix the guide rail segment 10 to be installed last in an in Figure 2c position 10 'shown. It is easy to see that the guide rail formed in accordance with the positions of the guide rail segments 8, 9, 9.1, 9.2, 10 'would not be oriented essentially parallel to the guide line along its entire length.

Figur 3 zeigt einen Aufzugsschacht 12. Der Aufzugsschacht 12 umfasst eine Schachtgrube 13 und einen Schachtkopf 14. Im Aufzugsschacht 12 ist mindestens ein Führungsschienensegment 6, 8 der Führungsschiene 4 bereits installiert, das heisst ausgerichtet und fixiert. Das im Aufzugsschacht 12 zuerst installierte, also in Figur 3a unten angeordnete Führungsschienensegment 6 der Führungsschiene kann gemäss dem zu Figur 2a beschriebenen Vorgehen mittels des Richtabstandes ausgerichtet und fixiert worden sein. Das zuletzt installierte, also das oberste dieses mindestens einen bereits installierten Führungsschienensegmentes 8 der Führungsschiene 4 weist eine Länge L8 auf. Das freie Ende des zuletzt installierten Führungsschienensegments 8 bildet einen Stosspunkt 26 zur Anreihung eines zweiten zu installierenden Führungsschienensegments 9 aus. Das heisst, der genannte Stosspunkt 26 ist am später ausgebildeten Übergang zwischen dem zuletzt installierten Führungsschienensegment 8 und dem zweiten Führungsschienensegment 9 ausgebildet. Figure 3 shows an elevator shaft 12. The elevator shaft 12 comprises a shaft pit 13 and a shaft head 14. At least one guide rail segment 6, 8 of the guide rail 4 is already installed in the elevator shaft 12, that is to say aligned and fixed. The guide rail segment 6 of the guide rail installed first in the elevator shaft 12, that is to say arranged at the bottom in FIG. 3a, can according to FIG Figure 2a described procedure have been aligned and fixed by means of the guide distance. The last installed, that is to say the topmost of this at least one already installed guide rail segment 8 of the guide rail 4 has a length L8. The free end of the guide rail segment 8 installed last forms a junction point 26 for lining up a second guide rail segment 9 to be installed. That is to say, the aforementioned impact point 26 is at the transition formed later between the last installed guide rail segment 8 and the second guide rail segment 9 formed.

Alternativ zur in Figur 3 gezeigten Installation der einzelnen Führungsschienensegmente 6, 8, 9 von der Schachtgrube 13 in Richtung des Schachtkopfes 14 kann die Führungsschiene 4 derart installiert werden, dass ein erstes Führungsschienensegment der Führungsschiene im Schachtkopf 14 installiert wird und vom Schachtkopf 14 aus in Richtung der Schachtgrube 13 die weiteren Führungsschienensegmente angereiht, ausgerichtet und fixiert werden. Demnach würde resultieren, dass der zweite als Referenzpunkt ausgebildete Punkt in der Schachtgrube 13 vorzugsweise am Schachtboden des Aufzugsschachtes 12 angeordnet ist.As an alternative to the in Figure 3 Installation of the individual guide rail segments 6, 8, 9 shown from the shaft pit 13 in the direction of the shaft head 14, the guide rail 4 can be installed in such a way that a first guide rail segment of the guide rail is installed in the shaft head 14 and the others from the shaft head 14 in the direction of the shaft pit 13 Guide rail segments are lined up, aligned and fixed. Accordingly, the result would be that the second point in the shaft pit 13, designed as a reference point, is preferably arranged on the shaft floor of the elevator shaft 12.

Der erste Punkt 22 ist vorzugsweise auf einer Strecke positioniert, die die halbe Länge L8/2 des zuletzt installierten Führungsschienensegmentes 8 aufweist. Diese Strecke wird durch eine horizontal gerichtete Parallelverschiebung einer sich vom Stosspunkt 26 erstreckenden, entlang des ersten Führungsschienensegmentes 8 gebildeten Strecke ermittelt.The first point 22 is preferably positioned on a route which is half the length L8 / 2 of the guide rail segment 8 installed last. This distance is determined by a horizontally directed parallel displacement of a distance which extends from the impact point 26 and is formed along the first guide rail segment 8.

Ein Referenzpunkt 24 des Richtelementes 20 ist im Schachtkopf 14 vorzugsweise an der Schachtdecke des Aufzugsschachtes 12 angeordnet. Das Richtelement 20 ist vorzugsweise derart installiert, dass zwischen dem ersten Punkt 22 und dem zweiten als Referenzpunkt ausgebildeten Punkt 24 ein vorzugsweise geradliniger Richtelementabschnitt zur Ausrichtung des zweiten Führungsschienensegmentes 9 gebildet ist.A reference point 24 of the straightening element 20 is arranged in the shaft head 14, preferably on the shaft ceiling of the elevator shaft 12. The straightening element 20 is preferably installed in such a way that a preferably straight straightening element section for aligning the second guide rail segment 9 is formed between the first point 22 and the second point 24 designed as a reference point.

Im Aufzugsschacht 12, vorzugsweise am zuletzt installierten Führungsschienensegment 8, kann eine Laservorrichtung 23 derart angeordnet sein, dass ein Laserstrahl 20 zum einen am ersten Punkt 22 aus der Laservorrichtung 23 austritt oder auf den ersten Punkt 22 gerichtet ist und darüber hinaus zum anderen auf den zweiten Punkt 24 gerichtet ist. Demnach bildet der Laserstrahl 20 das genannte Richtelement.In the elevator shaft 12, preferably on the last installed guide rail segment 8, a laser device 23 can be arranged in such a way that a laser beam 20 exits from the laser device 23 at the first point 22 or is directed at the first point 22 and also at the second Point 24 is directed. Accordingly, the laser beam 20 forms said directional element.

Alternativ dazu kann das Richtelement 20 durch eine Richtschnur gebildet sein, die am zweiten als Referenzpunkt ausgebildeten Punkt 24 befestigt ist und beispielhaft mittels eines Lots oder einer weiteren Befestigungsvorrichtung im Aufzugsschacht 12 gespannt ist. Am anhand des zuletzt installierten Führungsschienensegmentes ermittelten ersten Punktes 22 kann demnach eine Greifvorrichtung angeordnet werden, die sicherstellt, dass die Richtschnur 20 während der Ausrichtung des zweiten Führungsschienensegmentes 9 durch diesen Punkt 22 verläuft, also eine winklig zum Verlauf der Richtschnur gerichtete Bewegung der Richtschnur 20 verhindert wird. Demnach wird zwischen dem ersten Punkt 22 und dem Referenzpunkt 24 ein Richtelementabschnitt gebildet, mittels dessen eine Ausrichtung des zweiten Führungsschienensegmentes 9 ermöglicht wird.As an alternative to this, the straightening element 20 can be formed by a straightening cord which is fastened to the second point 24, which is designed as a reference point, and is tensioned in the elevator shaft 12, for example, by means of a plumb bob or a further fastening device. On the first determined using the guide rail segment installed last Accordingly, a gripping device can be arranged at point 22, which ensures that the guide line 20 runs through this point 22 during the alignment of the second guide rail segment 9, that is, a movement of the guide line 20 directed at an angle to the course of the guide line is prevented. Accordingly, a straightening element section is formed between the first point 22 and the reference point 24, by means of which an alignment of the second guide rail segment 9 is made possible.

Im weiteren Verlauf der Installation der Führungsschiene wird das zweite Führungsschienensegment 9 an dieses zuletzt installierte Führungsschienensegmente 8 an einem Stosspunkt 26 angereiht, also in grober Weise ausgerichtet und vorab befestigt. Das heisst, dass die Führungsabschnitte des zuletzt installierten und des zweiten Führungsschienensegmentes 8, 9 mittels dessen Anreihung eine im Wesentlichen stossfreie Führungsbahn der Führungsschiene 4 am Stosspunkt 26 ausbilden.In the further course of the installation of the guide rail, the second guide rail segment 9 is lined up with this last installed guide rail segment 8 at a contact point 26, that is to say roughly aligned and fastened in advance. This means that the guide sections of the last installed and of the second guide rail segments 8, 9 form a substantially joint-free guide track of the guide rail 4 at the joint point 26 by means of their arrangement.

Anschliessend wird das zweite Führungsschienensegment 9 bezüglich des zwischen dem ersten und dem zweiten Punkt 22, 24 gebildeten Richtelementabschnittes ausgerichtet. Das heisst, dass das zweite Führungsschienensegment 9 unmittelbar nach einer solchen Ausrichtung im Wesentlichen parallel des Richtelementes 20 angeordnet ist, wobei die Ausrichtung des Richtelementes 20 bezüglich der Vertikalen während dieser Ausrichtung von den äusseren auf den Aufzugsschacht 12 wirkenden Einflüssen abhängig ist. Üblicherweise wird das zweite Führungsschienensegment 9 nach der erfolgten Ausrichtung fixiert, um die Ausrichtung beizubehalten.The second guide rail segment 9 is then aligned with respect to the straightening element section formed between the first and the second point 22, 24. This means that the second guide rail segment 9 is arranged essentially parallel to the straightening element 20 immediately after such an orientation, the orientation of the straightening element 20 with respect to the vertical during this orientation being dependent on the external influences acting on the elevator shaft 12. The second guide rail segment 9 is usually fixed after the alignment has taken place in order to maintain the alignment.

Die Figur 4 zeigt einen weiteren gemäss Figur 1 ausgebildeten Aufzugsschacht 12, der aufgrund wechselnder äusserer Einflüsse während einer Installation einer Führungsschiene verformt wird. Ebenso wie in den Figuren 2a, 2b, 2c sind die Verformungen des Aufzugsschachtes 12 übertrieben dargestellt. Die in Figur 4 installierten Führungsschienensegmente 6, 8 wurden gemäss der Beschreibung zu Figur 3 angereiht bzw. fixiert.The Figure 4 shows another according to Figure 1 trained elevator shaft 12, which is deformed due to changing external influences during installation of a guide rail. Just like in the Figures 2a , 2b, 2c the deformations of the elevator shaft 12 are shown exaggerated. In the Figure 4 installed guide rail segments 6, 8 were according to the description Figure 3 lined up or fixed.

Letztlich führt ein solches Vorgehen der Installation dazu, dass im Gegensatz zu der gemäss Figur 2c dargestellten Vorgehensweise das jeweils letzte auszurichtende Führungsschienensegment 9 im Wesentlichen in Richtung des Referenzpunktes 24 ausgerichtet ist. Die Stosspunkte zwischen den einzelnen Führungsschienensegmenten 6, 8, 9 können zwar Knicke aufweisen, die eine Neujustierung gegebenenfalls aller Führungsschienensegmente 6, 8, 9 vonnöten machen, jedoch ist eine gemäss Figur 2c dargestellte sehr umfangreiche Neujustierung nicht in dem beschrieben hohen Masse nötig.Ultimately, such an installation procedure leads to the fact that, in contrast to that according to Figure 2c The procedure shown, the last guide rail segment 9 to be aligned is aligned essentially in the direction of the reference point 24. The abutment points between the individual guide rail segments 6, 8, 9 can indeed have kinks that may require readjustment of all guide rail segments 6, 8, 9 are necessary, but one is according to Figure 2c The very extensive readjustment shown is not necessary to the extent described.

Die Figur 5a zeigt eine Markierung 24.1, welche Markierung 24.1 in einem Schachtkopf vorzugsweise an einer Schachtdecke 25 angeordnet ist. Eine solche Markierung 24.1 dient der Fixierung eines Richtelementes im Aufzugsschacht 12. Auf diese Markierung 24.1 kann ein dem beschriebenen Verfahren dienliches als Laserstrahl ausgebildetes Richtelement ausgerichtet sein. Ein derartiger auf diese Markierung 24.1 ausgerichteter Laserstrahl gilt als an einem der Markierung 24.1 entsprechenden Punkt fixiert. Eine derartige Markierung 24.1 kann alternativ an einem Schachtboden 28 oder einer den Aufzugsschacht begrenzenden Wand angeordnet sein.The Figure 5a shows a marking 24.1, which marking 24.1 is arranged in a shaft head, preferably on a shaft ceiling 25. Such a marking 24.1 is used to fix a straightening element in the elevator shaft 12. A straightening element designed as a laser beam useful for the described method can be aligned with this marking 24.1. Such a laser beam directed at this marking 24.1 is considered to be fixed at a point corresponding to the marking 24.1. Such a marking 24.1 can alternatively be arranged on a shaft floor 28 or on a wall delimiting the elevator shaft.

Figur 5b zeigt eine Befestigungsvorrichtung 24.2, mittels derer ein vorzugsweise als Richtschnur ausgebildetes Richtelement 20 im Aufzugsschacht vorzugsweise am Referenzpunkt befestigt ist. Die Befestigungsvorrichtung 24.2 dient demnach der Befestigung des Richtelementes 20 an einem Schachtboden 28 oder an einer Schachtdecke 25 oder an einer den Aufzugsschacht begrenzenden Wand. Figure 5b shows a fastening device 24.2 by means of which a straightening element 20, preferably designed as a guide line, is fastened in the elevator shaft, preferably at the reference point. The fastening device 24.2 accordingly serves to fasten the straightening element 20 to a shaft floor 28 or to a shaft ceiling 25 or to a wall delimiting the elevator shaft.
