[0002] my country is a country prone to earthquakes. Since the 20th century, there have been nearly 800 earthquakes above magnitude 6. China is a major producer and consumer of elevators, but 70% of its elevators are installed in earthquake zones. Therefore, "earthquake early warning" can effectively reduce casualties. "Earthquake early warning" refers to the action of issuing warnings and taking measures before a sudden earthquake has occurred and before serious disasters have occurred. Before the earthquake waves spread to the fortified areas, an alarm is issued to the fortified areas a few seconds to tens of seconds in advance to reduce local losses. The elevator earthquake early warning device is a device that can detect the local seismic acceleration of the elevator to identify the arrival of earthquake P waves and S waves, and notify the elevator to respond accordingly. It can reduce casualties during an earthquake and reduce the possibility of damage to the elevator during an earthquake.
