Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of elevator parts manufacturing and processing, and in particular to a cover plate for an elevator guide rail bracket. Background Technology
[0002] The exterior walls of the elevator shaft and car of the sightseeing elevator are made of transparent glass, allowing passengers to enjoy the outside scenery while riding. From the outside, the internal components of the elevator shaft, such as supports, guide rails, and bolts, are also visible. While the supports and guide rails are usually painted to enhance the aesthetics of the sightseeing elevator, the bolts connecting the guide rails to the guide rail supports and to the elevator shaft are not easily aesthetically pleasing. From the outside, the side of the bolts facing outwards from the elevator shaft is clearly visible (see instruction manual). Figure 1 However, this will still have some impact on the aesthetics of the sightseeing elevator. Utility Model Content

[0019] See Figures 1 to 7 , Figure 9 A cover plate for an elevator guide rail bracket includes a bottom support bracket 3 connected to an external crossbar 1 and a guide rail bracket 4 connected to an elevator guide rail 2. Both the bottom support bracket 3 and the guide rail bracket 4 are U-shaped. The guide rail bracket 4 is fixedly connected above the bottom support bracket 3, and the openings of both the guide rail bracket 4 and the bottom support bracket 3 are horizontally oriented but in opposite directions. The cover plate includes a U-shaped front cover plate 5 and two L-shaped side cover plates. The front cover plate 5 and the two side cover plates are all made of Q235 steel plate. The two sides of each opening of the front cover plate 5 are bent towards the two sides of the end opening, forming grooves 6 at both ends of the front cover plate 5. Two baffles 13 are integrally formed on the two sides of the bottom of the front cover plate 5, and two U-shaped notches 7 are opened on one side of the front cover.
[0020] See Figure 6 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 Two side cover plates are located at the two ends of the front cover plate 5. The side cover plates are integrally formed by two perpendicular side pieces 8 and 9. The end of the side piece 8 is provided with a bevel. The side piece 8 can pass through the end slot 6 of the front cover plate 5. The side piece 9 contacts the bottom side of the front cover plate 5. The surface of the side piece 9 that contacts the bottom side of the front cover plate 5 is integrally formed with a protrusion 11. The end of the protrusion 11 is fixedly connected to a frustum-shaped rubber elastic element 12. The larger bottom surface of the elastic element 12 is connected to the protrusion 11. A circular hole 10 is opened on the bottom side of the front cover plate 5. The elastic element 12 can pass through the circular hole 10 of the front cover plate 5, and the diameter of the larger bottom surface of the elastic element 12 is larger than the diameter of the circular hole 10.
[0021] Working principle: During installation, the base support bracket 3 is installed on the crossbar of the elevator shaft, with its opening facing inwards. The guide rail bracket 4 is located above the base support bracket 3, with its opening facing outwards. Two bolts are passed through the sidewalls of the guide rail bracket 4 that contact the base support bracket 3, with the tails of the bolts positioned within the U-shaped opening of the guide rail bracket 4. The bolts are then tightened at the points where they are located within the U-shaped opening of the base support bracket 3. Next, the elevator guide rail 2 contacts the bottom side of the guide rail bracket 4. Two bolts with pressure plates are passed through the U-shaped opening of the guide rail bracket 4, and nuts are tightened at the points where the pressure plate bolts are located within the U-shaped opening of the guide rail bracket 4, thus pressing the pressure plates tightly against the guide rail 2.
[0022] Then, the side wall of the front cover plate 5 with two U-shaped notches 7 is inserted between the two sides of the guide rail bracket 4, and the two U-shaped notches 7 are respectively embedded in the two bolts between the guide rail bracket 4 and the bottom support bracket 3. Then, the nut in the bottom support bracket 3 is tightened. The other side wall of the front cover plate 5 is located outside the guide rail bracket 4, thereby fixing the front cover plate 5 and the guide rail bracket 4. Then, the side pieces 8 of the two side cover plates are respectively inserted into the slots 6 at both ends of the front cover plate 5. The side pieces 9 are embedded between the two baffles 13 on the bottom side of the front cover plate 5. The frustum-shaped elastic element 12 of the protrusion 11 on the side piece 9 passes through the round hole 10 on the bottom side of the front cover plate 5. The larger bottom surface of the elastic element 12 is blocked by the bottom side of the front cover plate 5 to prevent the elastic element 12 from coming out of the round hole 10, thereby increasing the connection between the front cover plate 5 and the side cover plate.
[0023] The front cover plate 5 blocks the opening of the guide rail bracket 4 facing the outside of the elevator shaft, and the two side cover plates block the openings at both ends of the guide rail bracket 4, thereby covering the bolts and nuts between the guide rail bracket 4 and the guide rail 2 and the bottom support bracket 3 facing the outside of the elevator shaft, reducing the exposure of bolts and nuts in conspicuous parts of the bracket in the elevator shaft, and increasing the aesthetics of the sightseeing elevator.
