Existing elevator traction wire rope cutting technology requires multiple work points to coordinate, which is not very safe and can easily cause damage to the wire rope.
Using lifting devices and rope clamps in the elevator machine room, the height of the rope head assembly is adjusted by the lifting device, and the rope clamps are used to clamp the traction steel wire rope, achieving single-point cutting, reducing the need for coordination and improving safety.
This technology enables safe and efficient cutting of traction steel wire ropes within the elevator machine room, reducing the need for coordination between work points and improving both work efficiency and safety.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to an elevator traction steel wire rope adjustment device, and more particularly to a rope cutting device. Background Technology
[0002] There are two common methods for cutting the traction steel wire rope of a machine room elevator. For example... Figure 1 As shown, one method involves suspending a wire rope on the machine beam 10 or rope head seat above the rope head hole on the side of the car, with the upper end of the hoist 12 hooked onto the wire rope. Wire ropes are suspended on both sides of the crossbeam on the car top, hooked onto the lower end of the hoist 12; the hoist 12 is tightened to lift the car 13, while the counterweight 14 is lowered until it hits a long wooden stake or long iron pipe pre-set in the pit; the wire rope and rope head are then slack; the rope is cut and reinstalled. This method requires personnel to be stationed in the machine room, on the car top, and in the pit, demanding high coordination among the three work points; also, the wire rope is prone to slipping out of the rope groove after slack, and after cutting, it must be checked that each wire rope has fallen back into the corresponding rope groove of each rope pulley, otherwise, the wire rope will be damaged; furthermore, the safety of pit and car top operations is not as good as machine room operations. Figure 2 As shown, another method involves suspending a hanging component (such as a steel wire rope) 2 from the machine beam 10 or rope head seat above the rope head hole on the car side, and hooking it onto the upper end of the hoist 12. The traction steel wire rope 7 is clamped with a rope clamping plate 3 above the car top, and the rope clamping plate 3 is hooked onto the lower end of the hoist 12; the hoist 12 is tightened to lift the car 13; the traction steel wire rope 7 between the rope head assembly 5 and the rope clamping plate 3 is loosened; the ropes are cut one by one at height A, and then the original rope heads are disassembled. Components installed on the original rope heads, such as the rope head wedge sleeve 15 and the rope head spring (or rope head rubber) 16, are installed on the new rope heads. The new rope heads are then installed in the positions of the original rope heads to form a new rope head assembly, and then everything is reset. This method requires personnel to be stationed in both the machine room and on the car top, requiring high coordination between the two work points; furthermore, the safety of operations on the car top is not as good as operations in the machine room. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a device for cutting traction steel wire rope in an elevator machine room, so as to solve the problem that the existing rope cutting technology is not safe enough.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] A device for cutting traction steel wire rope in an elevator machine room includes a lifting device, a hanging component, and a rope clamping plate, all installed in the machine room.
[0006] The upper end of the suspension component is connected to the lower end of the lifting device, and the lower end of the suspension component lifts the car-side rope head assembly and car-side rope head plate, which are separated from the rope head channel steel.
[0007] The rope clamping plate clamps the traction steel wire rope on the side of the rope head assembly near the car side and can be detachably installed on the rope head channel steel.
[0008] By adjusting the height of the car-side rope head assembly and the car-side rope head plate from the clamping plate using the lifting device, the traction wire rope above the clamping plate is slack, and then the traction wire rope can be cut.
[0009] Furthermore, the lifting device is a support frame and hoist fixed on the machine room floor or the machine frame beam, or a U-shaped hook and hoist fixed on the machine room ceiling, or a small crane located inside the machine room.
[0010] Furthermore, the suspension component is a wire rope, sling, or strap.
[0011] Furthermore, the lower end of the suspension component is connected to the car side rope head plate, and the car side rope head assembly is located on the car side rope head plate 6.
[0012] Furthermore, the rope clamping plate is detachably mounted on the rope end channel steel via clamps.
[0013] The advantages of this utility model are:
[0014] In the elevator machine room, the rope head assembly and rope head plate are lifted as a whole to the required height for rope cutting using a hoisting device. The traction steel wire rope is then clamped together using a rope clamping plate. By adjusting the distance between the rope head plate and the rope clamping plate using the hoisting device, the traction steel wire rope can be slackened, allowing rope cutting to be carried out in the machine room. Only one work point is retained in the machine room, making machine room operations safer than those on the car top or in the pit. This avoids the need for high coordination between different work points at different levels, reduces manpower, and improves work efficiency and safety. Attached Figure Description
