[0002] Elevator safety brakes are one of the safety facilities in elevators. Existing domestic elevator safety brakes are usually unidirectional safety brake structures, which can prevent the elevator from falling suddenly and ensure the safety of the elevator and passengers. However, elevators can not only fall suddenly but also rise rapidly. When the elevator crashes to the top due to a malfunction, the existing safety brakes cannot provide safety protection. Therefore, this application proposes a high-speed elevator safety brake with an integrated bidirectional self-locking mechanism. Utility Model Content

The lever arm is rotatably connected to the support sleeve through a hinge shaft. One end of the lever arm is fixedly connected to the limiter steel cable. The other end of the lever arm is fixedly provided with a limit support column. The limit support column passes through the drive plate. A strip-shaped limit vertical groove is opened in the middle of the front of the support sleeve. The self-locking limiter is slidably connected to the inside of the strip-shaped limit vertical groove. Limiting buckle grooves matching the self-locking limiter are opened at the bottom and top of both sides of the inside of the strip-shaped limit vertical groove.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] Depend on Figures 1 to 6 This invention discloses a high-speed elevator safety clamp with an integrated bidirectional self-locking mechanism, comprising a safety clamp body 1, which is sleeved on the elevator guide rail 2 and connected to the limiter steel rope 3. The safety clamp body 1 consists of a support sleeve 4, two sets of first clamp assemblies 5, two sets of second clamp assemblies 6, a drive plate 7, two self-locking limiters 8, and a lever swing arm 9. The support sleeve 4 is fixedly connected to the side of the elevator car. The two sets of first clamp assemblies 5 are respectively connected to the top ends of both sides inside the support sleeve 4, and the two sets of second clamp assemblies 6 are respectively connected to the bottom ends of both sides inside the support sleeve 4. The drive plate 7 is slidably connected to the inner side of the support sleeve 4. Two self-locking limiters 8 are fixedly connected to one side of the drive plate 7 and slidably connected to the support sleeve 4. The lever arm 9 is rotatably connected to the support sleeve 4 through the hinge shaft 10. One end of the lever arm 9 is fixedly connected to the limiter steel rope 3. The other end of the lever arm 9 is fixedly provided with a limit support column 11. The limit support column 11 passes through the drive plate 7. A strip-shaped limit vertical groove 12 is opened in the middle of the front of the support sleeve 4. The self-locking limiter 8 is slidably connected to the inside of the strip-shaped limit vertical groove 12. Limiting buckle grooves 13 matching the self-locking limiter 8 are opened at the bottom and top of both sides of the inside of the strip-shaped limit vertical groove 12.
[0024] When the elevator car descends rapidly or rushes to the top, the elevator limit switch locks, thereby limiting the limit switch steel rope 3. The limit switch steel rope 3 stops moving, and the lever arm 9 swings. When the elevator car moves downward, the lever arm 9 rotates clockwise, the drive plate 7 moves downward relative to the support sleeve 4, and the two sets of clamp assemblies 6 simultaneously lock and limit the elevator guide rail 2. When the elevator car moves upward, the lever arm 9 rotates counterclockwise, the drive plate 7 moves upward relative to the support sleeve 4, and the two sets of clamp assemblies 5 simultaneously lock and limit the elevator guide rail 2.
[0025] Both caliper assembly 1 5 and caliper assembly 2 6 are composed of a limiting support base 14, a limiting caliper plate 15 and a limiting head 16. The limiting support base 14 is fixedly connected to the support sleeve 4. The limiting caliper plate 15 is embedded in one side of the limiting support base 14 and is slidably connected to the limiting support base 14. The limiting head 16 is fixedly connected to the side of the limiting caliper plate 15.
[0026] When the limiting clamp 15 moves relative to the limiting support 14, it also undergoes lateral displacement, enabling it to move towards or away from the elevator guide rail 2. The limiting head 16 can form a connection with the drive plate 7.
[0027] The drive plate 7 has four transverse limiting short grooves 17 that are slidably connected to the limiting head 16, which can improve the mobility of the limiting head 16 and limit the limiting head 16 at the same time.
[0028] The drive plate 7 has a limiting mounting groove 18 in the middle position that is slidably connected to the limiting support column 11, which can improve the mobility of the limiting support column 11. Both ends of the drive plate 7 are provided with several universal balls 19, which can reduce the friction with the inner wall of the support sleeve 4.
[0029] The self-locking limiter 8 consists of a limit slider 20, two limit buckles 21, a rotating shaft 22 and a spring 23. The limit buckles 21 are rotatably connected to the inside of the limit slider 20 through the rotating shaft 22, and the spring 23 is fixedly connected between the limit buckles 21 and the limit slider 20.
[0030] During the upward or downward movement of the drive plate 7, the self-locking limiter 8 is driven to move synchronously. When the limit plate 21 coincides with the limit groove 13, the spring 23 pushes the limit plate 21 to rotate around the rotating shaft 22, so that the limit plate 21 and the limit groove 13 form a limiting effect.
[0031] The limiting slider 20 has two inner grooves 24 that match the limiting buckle 21, the rotating shaft 22 and the spring 23, which can realize the installation of the limiting buckle 21, the rotating shaft 22 and the spring 23. One end of the limiting slider 20 has a transverse unlocking groove 25 that communicates with the inner groove 24, which can allow the staff to manually reset the limiting buckle 21 after maintenance.
[0032] In operation, the safety clamp body, consisting of a support sleeve, two sets of caliper assemblies (first and second), a drive plate, two self-locking limiters, and a lever arm, provides bidirectional safety protection during rapid descent and overshoot of the elevator. Caliper assemblies one and two, composed of a limit support base, a limit clamp plate, and a limit head, utilize friction with the elevator guide rail to achieve locking and limiting. The inclusion of a strip-shaped limit groove, a limit latch groove, and a self-locking limiter consisting of a limit slider, two limit latch plates, a rotating shaft, and a spring ensures self-locking and limiting after caliper assemblies one and two lock onto the elevator guide rail, preventing accidental opening and further enhancing safety.
