Embodiment Construction

[0028] figure 1 Selected portions of elevator system 20 are shown. Elevator car 22 includes a cabin 24 configured to accommodate at least one passenger 26 or cargo. Elevator cab 22 is positioned to move along guide rails 28 to provide elevator service between a plurality of landings (not shown).

[0029] also in figure 2 The motorized module 30 shown in includes a base 32 . At least one connector 34 is supported on the base 32 . Connector 34 is configured to establish a releasable connection between motorized module 30 and cabin 24 . In the illustrated example, the connector 34 establishes a releasable connection with a portion of the frame of the elevator car 22 .

[0030] The motorized module 30 is movable in a vertical direction independently of the cabin 24 . A controller 36 controls the operation of a motor 38 supported on the base 32 . Motor 38 selectively causes movement of at least one drive member 40 to cause vertical movement of motorized module 30 . The ill...

Abstract

An illustrative example embodiment of an elevator system includes a cab configured to accommodate at least one passenger or item inside the cab. A motorized module includes a base, a connector supported on the base and at least one drive member supported on the base. The connector is configured to selectively establish a releasable connection between the motorized module and the cab. The drive member is configured to engage a vertical surface, climb along the vertical surface to selectively cause vertical movement of the base, and selectively prevent movement of the base when the drive member remains in a selected position relative to the vertical surface. At least one motor is associated with the drive member to selectively cause the drive member to climb along the vertical surface. The motorized module is vertically movable independent of the cab when the motorized module is released from the cab.

Description

Background technique [0001] For example, elevator systems transport passengers, goods, or both between different floors in a building. Various elevator system configurations are known. Some elevator systems operate on hydraulic machine arrangements to move the elevator car as desired. Other elevator systems are traction based and rely on traction between the traction sheave and the elevator rope arrangement to cause the desired movement of the elevator car. [0002] Regardless of the configuration of the elevator system, there are situations that require intervention when the elevator system is not functioning as desired. For example, it is possible for an elevator car to stop in the hoistway at a position where the car doors cannot be opened to allow any passengers in the cabin to get out. A so-called rescue operation is required to move the car to a position where passengers can leave the cabin. Different elevator system configurations require different approaches to res...
