The utility model relates to a novel
elevator with double counterweight housings, which comprises an
elevator car and a counterweight mechanism, the
elevator car is connected with the counterweight mechanism through a steel
wire rope and a double-wheel
tractor, the counterweight mechanism comprises two counterweight units, the two counterweight units are connected through a pair of fixing plates, and the two counterweight units are connected through a pair of fixing plates. The steel
wire rope is connected to the surface of the uppermost fixing plate. The double counterweight units are arranged in parallel, so that the occupied width of the counterweight units is reduced, the width of the lift car is increased, the split type balancing weights and the stand columns are installed in a combined mode through the notches, fast increase and decrease of balance weights are supported, and different load-carrying requirements are met. A vertical guide
system formed by the guide rods and the sleeves restrains the counterweight housing from shaking, and synchronous movement of the double counterweight units is guaranteed. The
threaded rod lifting mechanism supports overall height adjustment of the counterweight housing, and the counterweight block is convenient to overhaul or replace. And the limiting rod and the end cover are double-locked, so that the clump weight is prevented from falling off due to vibration, and the
operation safety is improved.
