Elevator with multi-compartment

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a multi-car elevator, shortening user's wait time and eliminating a step in the floor to enable easy getting on and off.

SOLUTION: This multi-car elevator includes: a power supply device 15 having a plurality of power transmission parts 16 installed at the respective stop floors of a hoistway 4; a power receiving part 17 provided on a car 1 and constructed so that when the car is landed on the stop floor, the power transmission parts 16 and the power receiving part 17 are located opposite to each other to supply power from the power transmission parts 16; a floor position correcting device 21 provided on the car 1 to adjust the floor height of the car; and a driving force storage device 59 provided on the car or the floor position correcting device 21 to store the driving force for driving the floor position correcting device 21, wherein the driving force is stored by the supply of power.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a multi-car elevator. In the elevator passage, every two elevator cars are connected as a pair by the main sling, and the elevator cars are used as counterweights for each other. Moving circularly in one direction in the channel, the present invention is especially suitable for multi-car elevators in which the height difference between the floors of the two elevator cars and the floor of the entrance and exit is properly corrected. Background technique [0002] As prior art, there is known an elevator in which every two elevator cars are connected as a pair by the main sling, and the elevator cars are used as counterweights for each other. When parking, adjust so that the floor of each elevator car is aligned with the floor of the entrance and exit of the floor. However, due to the elongation of the main rope over time, or the expansion and contraction of the main rope caused by the load of the elevator car, and the expansion ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0005] In the above-mentioned prior art, the power supply to the elevator car must be maintained all the time, and in a multi-car elevator in which a plurality of elevator cars circulate in the elevator passage, since the power supply wires will be entangled in the elevator passage, so It is difficult to perform wired power supply from the building side

[0006] In addition, the power supply method of the power supply rack used in railways or trams running on roads has problems such as increasing the size of equipment and elevator passages, and requiring noise countermeasures, and there are also problems such as wear and tear of contact members. Issues with regular maintenance, so not ideal
