Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of elevators, in particular to an elevator with a safety monitoring device. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of the elevator industry, the number of elevators has increased, and there are more and more high-rise and high-speed elevators. The safety of elevator use has been paid more attention to. For the energy-saving design of the elevator, the elevator car for passengers and goods is driven by the traction wheel to drive the wire rope to drive the car. The counterweight device is used on the other side of the traction wheel for balance. The car goes up and the counterweight device goes down. The two running directions are opposite, but when running to half of the lifting height, the running paths of the car and the counterweight device have a chance to intersect, and they run towards each other and move away from each other at the rated speed of the elevator. In order to ensure the smooth operation of the car and the counterweight device, the car and the counterweight device are provided with guide shoes to slide on the guide rails to avoid collision between the car and the counterweight device. However, due to wear or damage of the guide shoes, as well as deformation or displacement of the guide rails, it is very likely to cause the guide shoes to derail. After derailment, the car or counterweight device will move up and down freely and irregularly. Once it moves to the intersection position, a collision will occur, causing a major safety accident in which the counterweight device directly collides with the car, and the consequences are unimaginable.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to design a new technical solution. Summary of the invention

At this time, the elevator controller will send a signal to the traction machine, so that the traction machine will perform emergency braking, stop the elevator and wait for maintenance, thereby greatly reducing the accident rate of elevator products and improving the safety performance of elevators.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, there are multiple safety switches, multiple safety touch ropes are placed between the car and the counterweight device, and multiple safety touch ropes are equidistantly and orderly arranged.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution and setting a plurality of safety touch ropes, derailment of the car and the counterweight device can be detected immediately, making the handling more efficient.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a first guide rail is fixed to the inner wall of the side plate corresponding to the side wall of the counterweight device, and an outer wall of the first guide rail is provided with a matching first guide shoe, which is fixed to the side wall of the counterweight device.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the counterweight device can utilize the first guide shoe and the first guide rail to perform limited sliding during the lifting process, thereby ensuring the lifting stability of the counterweight device.

The models of electrical appliances provided in the present invention are only for reference, and different models of electrical appliances with the same functions can be replaced according to actual usage.

[0034] See also Figure 1-5 The present invention provides a technical solution: an elevator with a safety monitoring device, comprising a shaft 1, a car 11 is arranged in the inner cavity of the shaft 1, a mounting frame 12 is fixed to the top of the inner cavity of the shaft 1, a traction machine 13 is fixed to the mounting frame 12, a guide wheel 14 is rotatably mounted on one side of the mounting frame 12, a steel wire rope 15 is wound around the traction machine 13, one end of the steel wire rope 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the car 11, and the other end of the steel wire rope 15 is passed around the guide wheel 14 and fixedly connected to a counterweight device 16;

[0035] The inner cavity of the hoistway 1 is placed between the counterweight device 16 and the car 11, and a trigger assembly is provided. The trigger assembly includes a side plate 2, and the number of the side plates 2 is two. The two side plates 2 are respectively fixed to the two side walls of the inner cavity of the hoistway 1, and a safety switch 21 is fixed to the inner wall of one of the side plates 2, and a safety contact 23 is plugged into the outer wall of the safety switch 21. A safety touch rope 22 is fixed to the outer end of the safety contact 23, and the outer end of the safety touch rope 22 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the other side side plate 2;

[0036] The elevator controller 5 is fixed to one side of the top of the mounting frame 12 , and the safety switch 21 is connected to the elevator controller 5 through a wire 24 .

[0037] The signal output terminal of the safety switch 21 is connected to the signal input terminal of the elevator controller 5 , and the signal output terminal of the elevator controller 5 is connected to the signal input terminal of the traction machine 13 .

[0038] It should be noted that the counterweight device 16 is composed of a fixed frame and a plurality of counterweight blocks filled inside.

[0039] In actual use, first, the traction machine 13 can work to pull and release the steel wire ropes 15 on both sides, so that the car 11 and the counterweight device 16 can perform relative movement of lifting and lowering. When the car 11 or the counterweight device 16 deviates from the original track, the car 11 or the counterweight device 16 tilts, thereby touching the safety touch rope 22, so that the safety touch rope 22 drives the safety contact 23 to deviate from the corresponding safety switch 21. At this time, the safety switch 21 will feed back the signal of the safety circuit to the elevator controller 5. At this time, the elevator controller 5 will send a signal to the traction machine 13, so that the traction machine 13 performs emergency braking, stops the elevator from running, and waits for maintenance, thereby greatly reducing the accident rate of elevator products and improving the safety performance of the elevator.

[0040] Furthermore, adapted buffers 3 are fixed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the hoistway 1 corresponding to the bottom of the counterweight device 16 and the bottom of the car 11 , and the buffers 3 are used to provide buffering for the counterweight device 16 and the car 11 .

[0041] Furthermore, there are multiple safety switches 21, and multiple safety touch ropes 22 are placed between the car 11 and the counterweight device 16, and the multiple safety touch ropes 22 are arranged equidistantly and orderly. By setting up multiple safety touch ropes 22, derailment of the car 11 and the counterweight device 16 can be detected in the first time, making the handling more efficient.

[0042] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown; a first guide rail 18 is fixed to the inner wall of the side panel 2 corresponding to the side wall of the counterweight device 16, and an outer wall of the first guide rail 18 is provided with an adaptable first guide shoe 17, and the first guide shoe 17 is fixed to the side wall of the counterweight device 16, so that the counterweight device 16 can utilize the first guide shoe 17 and the first guide rail 18 to perform limited sliding during the lifting process, thereby ensuring the lifting stability of the counterweight device 16.

[0043] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown; second guide rails 41 are fixed to both side walls of the inner cavity of the hoistway 1 corresponding to the side walls of the car 11, and the outer wall of the second guide rail 41 is provided with a second guide shoe 4 adapted thereto, and the second guide shoe 4 is fixedly connected to the corresponding side wall of the car 11;

[0044] In actual use, the second guide rail 41 and the second guide shoe 4 are used to limit the position, so that the car 11 has high stability during the lifting process.

[0045] The implementation principle of an elevator with a safety monitoring device in the present application is as follows: in actual use, first, the traction machine 13 works to pull and release the steel wire ropes 15 on both sides, so that the car 11 and the counterweight device 16 can perform relative movement of lifting and lowering, and the first guide shoe 17 and the first guide rail 18 are used to limit sliding, so as to ensure the stability of the lifting and lowering of the counterweight device 16. At the same time, the second guide rail 41 and the second guide shoe 4 are used to limit the stability of the car 11 during the lifting process. When the car 11 or the counterweight device 16 deviates from the original track, the car 11 or the counterweight device 16 tilts, thereby touching the safety touch rope 22, so that the safety touch rope 22 drives the safety contact 23 to deviate from the corresponding safety switch 21. At this time, the safety switch 21 will feed back the signal of the safety circuit to the elevator controller 5, and the elevator controller 5 will send a signal to the traction machine 13, so that the traction machine 13 performs emergency braking, stops the elevator from running, and waits for maintenance, thereby greatly reducing the accident rate of the elevator product and improving the safety performance of the elevator.
