[0002] The elevator car is the core part of the elevator. It is the space inside the elevator for carrying passengers or goods. The car is usually composed of a steel structure, interior panels, a floor, a ceiling, lighting, ventilation equipment, a control panel, etc. It is connected to the driving device of the elevator through steel ropes or racks and moves up and down in the elevator shaft according to instructions. The final-stage buffer protection of the elevator car usually refers to the buffer system at the bottom of the elevator, which is an important part of the elevator safety design and is used to provide protection when the elevator car descends at high speed due to a fault or other reasons and exceeds the normal terminal position. However, the buffer system highly considers the drop of the car. If the car falls from a very high height, even if the buffer system has a buffering effect on the human body, the reaction force is relatively large and the buffering effect is not continuous, inevitably causing injury to passengers.

[0025] Secondly, the so-called "one embodiment" or "embodiment" herein refers to a specific feature, structure or characteristic that can be included in at least one implementation manner of the present utility model. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment that excludes other embodiments.

[0026] Embodiment

[0027] Referring to Figures 1 to 6 , which is an embodiment of the present utility model. This embodiment provides an elevator car, including a car body 300. Electromagnetic components 100 are provided on both sides of the car body 300. A continuous copper wall 400 is provided in the hoistway. Inside the iron core 103 of the electromagnetic component 100, the support rod 201 of the buffer device 200 is slidably engaged with it. When the car body 300 stalls and falls, a magnetic interaction is generated between the iron core 103 and the steel structure of the car body, so that the magnetic car body decelerates through the copper wall 400. When the buffer device 200 touches the bottom of the well, the support rod 201 compresses the medium inside the iron core 103. After reaching the set value, the connection hole 103c on the iron core 103 will release the medium;

[0028] Specifically, when the electromagnetic component 100 is activated, it magnetizes the car body 300 mainly composed of steel structure to form a temporary magnet. When the magnetized car passes through the copper wall 400, according to the principle of electromagnetic induction, a changing magnetic field will be generated in the copper wall, and then induced current will be generated. The magnetic field generated by these induced currents interacts with the magnetic field of the magnetized car to generate resistance, thereby slowing down the falling speed of the car. Especially in high-rise buildings, the continuously arranged copper walls 400 in the elevator shaft can provide additional deceleration protection. In addition, the buffer device 200 integrated on the electromagnetic component 100 works together with the overall buffer system to provide final shock absorption for the car. The support rod 201 of the buffer device 200 is embedded in the medium of the iron core 103. When the car hits the bottom of the well, the support rod will squeeze the medium in the iron core, causing the medium to be compressed and heated. When the pressure reaches a certain level, the connection hole 103c at the top of the iron core will release the medium. This process works together with the buffer system to provide the last effective buffer for the car to reduce the impact;

[0029] It is worth mentioning that when the electromagnetic component of the elevator is activated, it turns the car mainly composed of steel structure into a magnetic object. When this magnetized car passes through a series of copper walls, using the principle of electromagnetic induction, a changing magnetic field is generated, which in turn induces current in the copper walls. The magnetic field formed by these currents interacts with the magnetic field of the car itself to generate a reaction force, effectively slowing down its descending speed. Especially in the elevator shafts of high-rise buildings, it is very practical. At the same time, the elevator is also equipped with a buffer device integrated on the electromagnetic component, which works together with an independent buffer system to provide a linear and smooth buffering effect. The support rod penetrates deep into the iron core filled with medium. Once the car falls, it will compress the medium in the iron core. The medium is compressed and heated and stores energy. When the pressure reaches a certain level, the opening at the top of the iron core will eject the medium. This process works together with the buffer system to provide the final stage of buffering for the car in a linear and powerful manner, greatly improving the safety performance;

[0030] Exemplarily, as Figures 1-6 shown, the electromagnetic component 100 further includes a DC power supply 101 and a copper coil 102. The DC power supply 101 is arranged on the car body 300. The car body 300 is electrically connected to the copper coil 102 through a wire. The copper coil 102 is wound around the outer surface of the iron core 103. An avoidance groove 104 is provided at the contact between the iron core 103 and the car body 300 for winding the copper coil 102. The cavity 103a inside the iron core 103 is used to store the medium. A card slot 103b is provided at the top of the iron core 103. The card slot 103b is sealed with a sealing plug 105. The card slot 103b is connected to the cavity 103a through a connection hole 103c. One end of the support rod 201 is sleeved in the cavity 103a through a piston 201a. The piston 201a is arranged on the support rod 201;

[0031] As shown in Figure 5 the figure; the generation principle of its electromagnetic component 100 can be as follows:

[0032] The solution to form an electromagnet with a copper wire and an iron core and generate electromagnetic induction when the elevator stalls is as follows:

[0033] Speed sensor: Installed in the elevator car to detect the speed of the car. When the car stalls, the speed sensor will detect the speed change and trigger the circuit;

[0034] Delay switch: Connected to the speed sensor. When the speed sensor detects a stall signal, the delay switch conducts the circuit and delays to ensure long-term electrical conduction of the circuit;

[0035] Power supply: Provides stable power supply for the entire circuit. The power supply should use direct current;

[0036] Copper wire and iron core: The copper wire is wound around the iron core to form an electromagnet. When the speed sensor detects a stall signal and passes through the delay switch, the power supply supplies power through the copper wire and the iron core, causing the electromagnet to generate a magnetic field.

[0037] Copper wall of the elevator shaft: A copper wall is set in the elevator shaft. When the electromagnet in the car generates a magnetic field, the conductors (such as the steel bars or metal structures of the elevator shaft) in the copper wall will cut the magnetic induction lines in the magnetic field, thereby generating induced electromotive force and current;

[0038] Through the above settings, when the elevator car stalls, the speed sensor detects the speed change and activates the electromagnet through the delay switch, causing it to generate a magnetic field and generate electromagnetic induction through the copper wall of the elevator shaft, thereby realizing the safety protection function;

[0039] As shown in Figure 2 the figure, the support rod 201 is connected to the support part 202a of the support foot 202. When the contact part 202c of the support foot 202 touches the bottom of the well, the piston 201a squeezes the cavity 103a, and the sealing plug 105 disengages from the card slot 103b, allowing the medium to be discharged through the connection hole 103c, and the elastic part 202b of the support foot 202 is overstressed and bent until it breaks. By finally contacting the bottom of the well with the support foot 202, the process of the support foot 202 deforming to breaking provides the final buffer for the car;

[0040] It is worth mentioning that the strut 201 is connected to the supporting part 202a of the supporting foot 202, forming a mechanical buffer structure. When the elevator car descends and the contact part 202c of the supporting foot 202 touches the bottom of the well, this structure starts to function. The piston 201a is pressured, squeezing the medium in the cavity 103a, causing the sealing plug 105 to be disengaged from the card slot 103b, so that the medium is discharged through the connecting hole 103c. This process is similar to an emergency release mechanism. The rapid discharge of the medium can provide a fast and powerful buffer. At the same time, the elastic part 202b of the supporting foot 202 will bend or even break after being subjected to excessive pressure. By selecting a suitable material for the supporting foot 202, the plastic deformation and ultimate fracture of this material absorb a large amount of kinetic energy, further slowing down the descending speed of the car and providing a linear buffer in the final stage for the car. Through the deformation of the supporting foot and the discharge of the medium, multi-stage and multi-level buffering is achieved, ensuring the safe landing of the elevator car in extreme cases.
