The structure of the existing upper mechanical blocking device is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the upper mechanical blocking device is connected to the guide rail of the elevator through a fastener 15. When the elevator needs to be repaired, the worker opens the hall door and the car door according to regulations, and moves the striker 16 on the upper mechanical blocking device to make it touch the upper limit switch on the top of the car, so that the elevator starts the deceleration function, and then starts the car to reach the required height. Then, the pin rod 17 is moved, and the pin rod 17 drives the top rod 18 to extend and cooperate with the limit plate on the side wall of the car to prevent the car from continuing to rise.

The inspection latch assembly is fixed to the upper beam of the car, and the stop plate assembly is fixed to the guide rail of the elevator. Figure 5 As shown, the pin on the maintenance pin assembly is axially moved so that it is inserted into the hole of the stop plate assembly.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, but they are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0022] Embodiment. A locking device for maintenance and limiting of a machine room-less elevator, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, it includes an upper blocking limit striker 1, an inspection hanging plate 2, a stop plate assembly 14 and a U-shaped bracket 3 when viewed from above.

[0023] The upper stop limit striker 1 and the inspection hanging plate 2 are both connected to the guide rail 4 of the elevator. The upper stop limit striker 1 is located above the inspection hanging plate 2. The stop plate assembly 14 is located above the upper stop limit striker 1. The inspection hanging plate 2 is provided with a hanging hole 5.

[0024] The bracket 3 is connected to the elevator car, and the connection point is located on the upper beam assembly 13 of the car. A horizontal long hole 6 is provided on the bottom plate of the bracket 3, and a pin 7 is provided on the bracket 3. The pin 7 passes through the two side plates of the bracket 3, and the pin 7 is provided with a bolt 8 that passes vertically through the long hole 6. The front side of the bracket 3 is provided with an upper blocking limit switch 9. The upper blocking limit switch 9 is a travel switch. The contact of the travel switch is a roller, and the roller is connected to the body of the travel switch through a swing arm, which is an existing accessory. The upper blocking limit switch 9 is connected to the bracket 3 through a slide 12. The slide 12 is fixed to the bracket 3, and the upper blocking limit switch 9 is slidably connected to the slide 12. The upper blocking limit switch 9 is set in the slide groove of the slide 12.

[0025] Circular limiting holes 10 are provided at both ends and the middle of the long hole 6. A limiting sleeve 11 is provided on the bolt 8 to cooperate with the limiting hole 10. The limiting sleeve 11 is made of rubber and can move axially. After the limiting sleeve 11 is inserted into the limiting hole 10, it can limit the axial movement of the pin 7 to ensure safety in use.

[0026] Working principle: Figure 1 As shown, when the elevator is in normal working condition, the bolt 8 stays in the limit hole 10 on the right, and the pin 7 is in the right position. At this time, the contacts of the car rising pin 7 and the upper blocking limit switch 9 will not touch the inspection hanging plate 2, the upper blocking limit collision bow 1 and the stop plate assembly 14.

[0027] The worker pulls the limit sleeve 11 axially outward from the right limit hole 10, moves the bolt 8 to the middle limit hole 10, and inserts the limit sleeve 11 into the middle limit hole 10. The bolt 8 drives the latch 7 to move outward for a distance. After the car continues to rise, the latch 7 will touch the stop plate assembly 14. The worker slides the upper stop limit switch 9 outward for a distance so that the contact of the upper stop limit switch 9 is located on the lower side of the upper stop limit striker 1. After the car rises, the contact of the upper stop limit switch 9 can touch the upper stop limit striker 1. At this time, the locking device plays the role of the upper mechanical stop device. When the car rises, the contact of the upper stop limit switch 9 touches the upper stop limit striker 1, and the elevator starts the deceleration function until the speed is zero. Under ideal conditions, the latch 7 does not touch the stop plate assembly 14. The stop plate assembly 14 acts as a safety to limit the maximum rising height of the car.

[0028] Return the locking device to Figure 1 In this state, the worker starts the car to the required height, pulls the limit sleeve 11 axially outward from the right limit hole 10, moves the bolt 8 to the left limit hole 10, and inserts the limit sleeve 11 into the middle limit hole 10. The bolt 8 drives the pin 7 to move outward and inserts it into the hanging hole 5 of the maintenance hanging plate 2. The car height is fixed, and the locking device serves as a maintenance pin device. At this time, the worker can carry out maintenance work.

[0029] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", etc., indicating directions or positional relationships, are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limitations on the present invention.
