[0001] This utility model relates to the field of elevator technology, and in particular to an elevator landing door unlocking transmission mechanism. This mechanism is especially suitable for scenarios where elevator landing doors can be reliably and efficiently unlocked in emergency situations, providing an important guarantee for the safe use of elevators. Background Technology

[0002] In current elevator landing door unlocking technology, most top-mounted or side-mounted triangular locks employ a traditional horizontal pivot-operated unlocking method. However, this method has revealed several significant problems in practical applications:

[0003] Spatial layout challenges: The horizontal pivot-driven unlocking mechanism requires significant axial space. In actual installation, this often necessitates passing through the door guide rail frame, which not only necessitates substantial modifications and impacts on the frame's component structure but also complicates and complicates the installation process. Furthermore, in some cases, it is only applicable to larger door guide rail frames, undoubtedly increasing equipment configuration costs and limiting its application in elevators of different specifications.

[0004] Poor reliability: Due to the extremely limited available space near the elevator landing door lock hook seat, the traditional rotating shaft transmission mechanism is significantly affected by space constraints. Under these limited space conditions, even minor errors during installation can severely impact the unlocking operation, leading to unstable unlocking action, jamming, and greatly reducing the reliability and security of unlocking.

[0005] Maintenance difficulties: Traditional unlocking devices have a complex structure and strong interrelationships between components. During inspection and maintenance, multiple components often need to be disassembled to reach the area requiring repair. This not only increases the workload and time cost of maintenance but may also damage other components during disassembly and installation, further affecting the normal operation of the elevator. Utility Model Content

[0030] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0031] This utility model provides a technical solution: an elevator landing door unlocking transmission mechanism for emergency opening of landing door locks, comprising:

[0032] The transmission assembly has a fixed end and a movable end. The fixed end is fixed to the lock hook bracket (or a nearby fulcrum), and the movable end can move relative to it.

[0033] A connecting component, which is connected to and operates synchronously with the lock hook of the landing door lock;

[0034] A guide assembly is mounted on the door guide rail frame by a fixing assembly and maintains a preset distance from the transmission assembly;

[0036] Fasteners for securing the transmission assembly, connection assembly, guide assembly, and traction assembly.

[0037] Specifically, in this embodiment, the transmission component is a quadrilateral linkage mechanism, which consists of four links connected by hinges to form a rhomboid structure. The fixed end is the lower horizontal link, and the movable end is the upper horizontal link. It is provided with an arc-shaped guide surface that contacts the locking hook connecting plate to ensure that the movable end can smoothly drive the connecting component during movement. The upper horizontal link moves up and down by folding, and its diagonal pivot is designed with a torsion spring to force it to fold and return to its original position.

[0038] Specifically, in this embodiment, the connecting component is a lock hook connecting plate; the lock hook connecting plate is fixedly linked with the lock hook to ensure that the lock hook is unlocked.

[0039] Specifically, in this embodiment, the guide component is a pull cable sleeve; the pull cable sleeve is a corrugated flexible hose, and its end is provided with a limiting clamp to enhance the protection and limiting of the traction component.

[0040] Specifically, in this embodiment, the traction component is a steel wire rope, and the angle between its traction direction and the movement direction of the moving end of the transmission component is less than 30° to ensure effective transmission of tension.

[0041] Specifically, in this embodiment, the fixing component is a fixing bracket; the pull wire sleeve is installed on the fixing bracket; and the fixing bracket is installed on the door guide rail frame by the fasteners.

[0042] Specifically, in this embodiment, the quadrilateral linkage mechanism is in a folded reset state when not in operation.

[0043] Implementation Case:

[0044] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 An elevator landing door unlocking transmission mechanism is mainly used to open the door lock of the elevator landing door in an emergency. Its specific structure includes the following key parts:

[0045] Quadrilateral linkage mechanism 5: This is the core component of the entire transmission mechanism, consisting of four linkages connected by hinges to form a quadrilateral structure. The lower horizontal linkage is reliably fixed to the lock hook support bracket 10 to ensure the stability of the entire mechanism; while the upper horizontal linkage is designed to move up and down within a certain range to unlock the lock hook.

[0046] Lock hook connecting plate 3: This connecting plate is firmly fixed to the lock hook 2 and can move synchronously with the lock hook 2. Its function is to transmit the movement of the quadrilateral linkage mechanism 5 to the lock hook 2, thereby driving the lock hook 2 to complete the action of disengaging from the lock hook seat 4.

[0047] The cable sleeve 8 is installed on the door guide frame 1 via the fixed bracket 7 and maintains a preset distance from the quadrilateral linkage mechanism 5. The main function of the cable sleeve 8 is to protect and guide the steel wire rope, ensuring that the steel wire rope is not disturbed by external factors during movement.

[0048] Wire rope pull 6: One end of which is firmly fixed to the upper horizontal connecting rod of the quadrilateral linkage mechanism 5. When the wire rope pull 6 is pulled, it can directly pull the upper horizontal connecting rod to move up and down, thereby realizing the entire unlocking transmission process.

[0049] Fastener 9: Used to securely fasten the various components together, ensuring the structural stability and reliability of the entire transmission mechanism.

[0050] Torsion spring 11: Used to force the quadrilateral linkage mechanism 5 to fold and reset, ensuring that the normal operation of the locking hook 2 is not affected.

[0051] In actual unlocking operations, when it is necessary to open the elevator landing door urgently, the operator only needs to pull the steel wire rope 6. At this time, the steel wire rope 6 will pull the upper horizontal link of the quadrilateral linkage mechanism 5 to move upward. During the movement, the upper horizontal link will lift the lock hook connecting plate 3, thereby causing the lock hook 2 to disengage from the lock hook seat 4, and finally realize the opening of the elevator landing door.

[0052] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the lower horizontal link of the quadrilateral linkage mechanism 5 is firmly fixed to the hook seat bracket 10 by a suitable fastener 9, ensuring that the entire mechanism will not shift during normal operation. The hook connecting plate 3 is fixed to the side of the hook 2 by the fastener 9, ensuring that the two can move synchronously.

[0053] The pull cable sleeve 8 is installed on the side of the door guide frame 1 via a fixed bracket 7, maintaining a certain distance from the quadrilateral linkage mechanism 5. This design ensures that the pull cable sleeve 8 protects and guides the wire rope pull 6 without interfering with the movement of the quadrilateral linkage mechanism 5. The end of the wire rope pull 6 is fixed at an appropriate position on the upper horizontal linkage, ensuring that the tension is evenly transmitted when the wire rope pull 6 is pulled, allowing the upper horizontal linkage to move smoothly upward.

[0054] Reset state

[0055] Under normal circumstances, the quadrilateral linkage mechanism 5 is in a folded state under the action of the torsion spring 11. At this time, the locking hook 2 and the locking hook seat 4 are tightly engaged to ensure that the elevator landing door is locked and to ensure the safe operation of the elevator.

[0056] Unlocking process

[0057] When an emergency opening of the elevator landing door is required, the operator pulls the steel wire rope 6 upwards. Under the pull, the upper horizontal link of the quadrilateral linkage mechanism 5 is pulled upwards. As the upper horizontal link rises, it pushes the lock hook connecting plate 3 upwards, thereby causing the lock hook 2 to disengage from the lock hook seat 4, realizing the unlocking action of the elevator landing door (e.g., Figure 2 (As shown). When the operator releases the wire rope 6, the quadrilateral linkage 5 will automatically fold and reset under the action of the torsion spring 11, returning the entire transmission mechanism to its initial state.

[0058] In summary, compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0059] Space utilization optimization: The quadrilateral linkage mechanism, with its unique folding motion characteristics, greatly reduces the requirement for axial space. This allows the mechanism to better adapt to the confined installation environment near the elevator landing door lock hook seat, without requiring large-scale modifications to the main structure of the door guide frame, thus reducing installation difficulty and cost.

[0060] Significantly improved reliability: The linkage transmission system ensures more even force distribution and more controllable movement trajectory throughout the unlocking process. This design effectively avoids the jamming problem that easily occurs in traditional shaft-operated unlocking methods, ensuring that the unlocking action can be completed stably and reliably, and improving the success rate of elevator door opening in emergency situations.

[0061] Enhanced ease of maintenance: This utility model adopts a modular design concept, with a clear and reasonable layout of each component. During inspection and maintenance, there is no need to disassemble major components such as the door guide rail frame, allowing for convenient inspection and replacement of each component, greatly reducing maintenance costs and time, and improving the elevator's operating efficiency and reliability.
