[0021] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easier to understand, the following embodiments are combined with the accompanying drawings to specifically illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention.
[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, the embodiment of the present invention provides a traction machine suitable for retrofitting elevators in old buildings. The traction machine includes: a gear box 5, a motor 1, a traction sheave shaft 3, a traction sheave 4, a brake 6, an encoder 7, a junction box 8, a disc wheel 9, and a protective cover 2.
[0023] Gearbox 5 is a vertical gearbox with a longitudinal input shaft, a transverse output shaft, and a gear transmission mechanism. The longitudinal input shaft extends from the upper end of gearbox 5, while the transverse output shaft extends through the front and rear sides of gearbox 5. The gear transmission mechanism in gearbox 5 is a spiral bevel gear mechanism. The vertical gearbox reduces the output speed and amplifies the torque; it also reverses the transmission direction. Due to its high output torque, the installed elevator can be installed with a 1:1 traction ratio, providing a feasible solution for retrofitting elevators in existing buildings. Furthermore, the vertical structure of the gearbox prevents oil leakage from the high-speed rotating shaft due to oil seal wear.
[0024] The motor 1 is mounted above the gearbox 5 and is bolted to the upper flange of the gearbox 5. The motor 1 is a permanent magnet synchronous motor. The motor shaft of the motor 1 is connected to the longitudinal input shaft of the gearbox 5.
[0025] As a preferred solution, a disc wheel 9 is installed on the upper end of the motor 1 shaft. When an unexpected power outage occurs, the staff can manually rotate the disc wheel 9 to reset the elevator car and implement emergency rescue.
[0026] As a preferred solution, the junction box 8 is mounted and fixed on the side of the motor 1, which has a compact layout and saves space.
[0027] The traction sheave shaft 3 and brake 6 are located at the front and rear ends of the gearbox 5. Brake 6 is secured to the gearbox 5 with screws. Brake 6 is used to brake the lateral output shaft, enhancing braking safety. Encoder 7 is installed in the center hole of brake 6. The traction sheave shaft 3 and encoder 7 are connected to both ends of the lateral output shaft. The traction sheave 4 is mounted on the traction sheave shaft 3.
[0028] As a preferred solution, a protective cover 2 is provided above the traction sheave 4, which shields the upper side and the outer end surface of the traction sheave, thereby reducing interference of the external environment on the traction sheave 4 and the wire rope installed on the traction sheave.
[0029] The traction machine of this embodiment, suitable for retrofitting elevators in older buildings, can be installed using either a backpack or gantry installation method. The backpack installation method involves installing the traction machine at the rear, left, or right side of the elevator shaft, making it suitable for installation in confined spaces. The gantry installation method uses a gantry as support for the traction machine, effectively supporting greater weight and suitable for larger installation spaces. The traction machine of this embodiment, suitable for retrofitting elevators in older buildings, offers greater flexibility in installation methods and is applicable to a wider range of scenarios.
[0030] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that the present invention is susceptible to various modifications and variations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention are intended to fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
