Description

[0001] AN ELEVATOR INSTALLATION WITH A FIXATION BRACKET

[0002] The present invention relates to elevator installations and more particularly, an elevator installation with a fixation bracket.

[0003] Elevator installations are an essential part of multi-story buildings, such as commercial or residential buildings, for transporting persons / goods between different floors. The elevator installation usually comprises an elevator shaft, an elevator car, a counterweight, and a pair of guide rails positioned at a distance from each other. The pair of guide rails is positioned within the elevator shaft and guides the elevator car and the counterweight, such that the elevator car and the counterweight are moved in opposite directions. Herein, the movement of the elevator car and the counterweight is supported by a traction means, which is guided over a drive pulley. Further, the elevator installation comprises a pair of elevator drives to move the traction means to control the movement and position of the elevator car and the counterweight.

[0004] The elevator drives are usually mounted on one or more brackets of the elevator installation, where such brackets are supported on the guide rails. During the operation of the elevator installation, various loads are acting on the guide rails which leads to twisting / defl ection of the guide rails. Thus, owing to such deflection of the guide rails, a required distance between the guide rails cannot be maintained and, further positioning of the elevator drives also gets affected which is not desirable for optimal operation of the elevator installation.

[0005] In the existing elevator installations, one or more supporting members are positioned between the guide rails to maintain the distance between the guide rails. However, such supporting members interfere with a space provided over the elevator car for one or more technicians to perform maintenance operations in the elevator installation. Further, the implementation of such supporting members increases the number of components of the elevator installation, which makes theelevator installation more complex and bulkier. This further increases the overall cost of the elevator installation.

[0006] Therefore, there is an immense desire to develop an elevator installation that can eliminate one or more shortcomings associated with the abovementioned elevator installations.

[0007] This summary is provided to introduce a selection of concepts, in a simplified format, that are further described in the detailed description of the invention. This summary is neither intended to identify key or essential inventive concepts of the invention and nor is it intended for determining the scope of the invention.

[0008] It is the object of the present invention to provide an elevator installation. The elevator installation comprises a fixation bracket mounted on a wall of the elevator shaft and coupled to at least two connecting bracket assemblies. Herein, each connecting bracket assembly is coupled to a first end of one of the support brackets and a second end of each support bracket is coupled to one of the guide rails. Thus, the fixation bracket maintains the predefined distance between the guide rails, without implementing one or more supporting members between the guide rails. Thus, sufficient space is available on a top portion of an elevator car, such that one or more technicians can position themselves in the available space while performing the maintenance operations.

[0009] According to a first aspect of the invention, an elevator installation comprises an elevator shaft, at least two guide rails, at least two support brackets, at least two elevator drives, at least two connecting bracket assemblies, and a fixation bracket. The elevator shaft is defined by a plurality of walls. The at least two guide rails are positioned within the elevator shaft and located at a predefined distance from each other. Each support bracket has a first end and a second end distal to the first end. Herein, the second end of each support bracket is coupled to one of the guide rails and the first end of each support bracket is oriented / extended in a direction towardsone of the plurality of walls. Each elevator drive is coupled to the second end of the support bracket. Each connecting bracket assembly is adjustably coupled to the first end of one of the support brackets. The fixation bracket has a first mounting end and a second mounting end distant apart from the first mounting end. Herein, each of the first mounting end and the second mounting end is mounted or adapted to be mounted on one of the plurality of walls of the elevator shaft such that the fixation bracket is aligned with the first end of each support bracket. Further, each connecting bracket assembly is coupled to one of the first mounting end and the second mounting end of the fixation bracket, such that the fixation bracket maintains the predefined distance between the guide rails.

[0010] Possible features and advantages of aspect of the invention can be considered, among other things, and without limiting the invention, to be dependent upon the concepts and findings described below.

[0011] In an aspect, the fixation bracket is mounted on the wall of the elevator shaft to support the connecting bracket assemblies and the support brackets, and each elevator drive is individually mounted on the respective support bracket. This eliminates a direct mounting of the connecting bracket assemblies and the support brackets on the wall of the elevator shaft, which increases the stiffness of the connecting bracket assemblies and the support brackets. Herein, one or more loads acting on the support brackets is distributed towards the fixation bracket via the connecting bracket assemblies, where the loads are further distributed across the fixation bracket instead of a direct mounting point of the wall when the connecting bracket assemblies and the support brackets are directly mounted on the wall. Such distribution of the loads prevents the twisting and / or deflection of the guide rails. Thus, the predefined distance required between the two guide rails for an operation of the elevator installation can be maintained. Further, the elevator drives are mounted by using a smaller number of components and a single interface or wall of the elevator shaft via the fixation bracket.Furthermore, each connecting bracket assembly is coupled to one of the first mounting end and the second mounting end of the fixation bracket. Thus, the fixation bracket maintains the predefined distance between the guide rails without any deflection. The implementation of the fixation bracket increases the stiffness of the guide rails. Herein, the predefined distance between the guide rails is maintained without the implementation of any supporting member directly located between the guide rails. Thus, the elimination of the supporting member provides sufficient space on the top portion of the elevator car. Therefore, the one or more technicians can comfortably position themselves over the elevator car during the maintenance of the elevator installation. With the elimination of the supporting member between the guide rails, the number of components of the elevator installation is reduced. This further reduces the complexity of the elevator installation and enables deployment of the elevator installation with ease.

[0012] Moreover, the fixation bracket is a single integrated structure which can be handled and mounted on the wall of the elevator shaft with minimal effort. Additionally, the fixation bracket is light-weighted and, therefore can be easily mounted on the wall of the elevator shaft. This reduces the time and effort required in the mounting of the fixation bracket and overall deployment of the elevator installation. The easy and quick mounting of the fixation bracket further lowers the overall cost of the elevator installation.

[0013] Accordingly, the elevator installation of the present invention is reliable, effective, efficient, less complex, and easy to implement and use.

[0014] The fixation bracket comprises a first member and a second member. The first member is mounted or adapted to be mounted on one of the plurality of walls of the elevator shaft. The second member is orthogonally extending from the first member. Herein, the second member supports or is adapted to support the at least two connecting bracket assemblies.Herein, the first member is easily mounted on the wall of the elevator shaft and the at least two connecting bracket assemblies are coupled with the second member. The loads generated during the operation of the elevator installation are distributed across the fixation bracket, which prevents the twisting of the guide rails. This increases the stiffness of the guide rails, and the elevator drives as the at least two connecting bracket assemblies are indirectly supported on the wall via the fixation bracket.

[0015] The first member and the second member are formed as a one-piece integral structure and defining an L-shaped cross-sectional profile. Advantageously, the L-shaped cross-sectional profile of the fixation bracket enables the coupling of the fixation bracket to the wall and the supporting brackets, where the wall and the supporting brackets are located in different planes. The one-piece integral structure of the fixation bracket results in a smaller number of components which makes the handling and mounting of the fixation bracket easy and less time-consuming. Thus, the fixation bracket is easily mounted on the wall with minimal effort. Considering the fixation bracket is the one-piece integral structure, the guide rails connected with the fixation bracket via the support brackets and the connecting bracket assemblies can remain at the same predefined distance from each other. This improves the stiffness and performance of the guide rails.

[0016] The second member comprises a plurality of mounting holes to mount the at least two connecting bracket assemblies on the second member. The advantage of providing the plurality of mounting holes is that the at least two connecting bracket assemblies are easily and securely coupled with the second member via a plurality of fasteners.

[0017] The first member comprises a plurality of elongated slots to receive the plurality of fasteners to mount the fixation bracket on one of the plurality of walls of the elevator shaft.Advantageously, the implementation of the plurality of elongated slots allows the adjustment of the fixation bracket relative to the wall of the elevator shaft. This makes the elevation installation more flexible and easier to implement. This reduces the time and effort required in the mounting of the fixation bracket on the wall of the elevator shaft.

[0018] Each connecting bracket assembly comprises a first connecting member, a second connecting member, and a central connecting member. The first connecting member is coupled or adapted to be coupled with a first side of one of the support brackets. The second connecting member is coupled or adapted to be coupled with a second side of one of the support brackets. Herein, the second side is opposite to the first side. Further, the central connecting member is disposed between the first connecting member and the second connecting member. Herein, the central connecting member couples or adapted to couple the first connecting member with the second connecting member and is engaged with the first end of one of the support brackets.

[0019] Herein, the first connecting member, the second connecting member, and the central connecting member are joined with each other to form the connecting bracket assembly. The implementation of the first connecting member, the second connecting member and the central connecting member allows the easy assembly and dismantling of the connecting bracket assembly. This significantly reduces the physical effort and time required in the dismantling of the connecting bracket assembly during maintenance operations. Further, the first connecting member and the second connecting member are coupled to opposite sides of the support bracket, and the central connecting member is coupled with the first connecting member and the second connecting member. Such an arrangement ensures that each connecting bracket assembly is securely coupled to the respective support bracket.Each support bracket comprises a recess adjacent to the first end. The recess receives or is adapted to receive the central connecting member of the connecting bracket assembly.

[0020] Advantageously, the central connecting member is securely positioned in the recess of each support bracket without any fasteners. With the implementation of the recess, the central connecting member is coupled with each support bracket with a minimal number of components, which reduces the overall complexity of the elevator installation. Further, the central connecting member is firmly coupled with the second connecting member and the first connecting member together to further eliminate lateral movement therebetween. This results in a secure structure of each connecting bracket assembly.

[0021] Each of the first connecting member and the second connecting member comprises a plurality of elongated slots to receive the plurality of fastening members to couple each of the first connecting member and the second connecting member with one of the support brackets.

[0022] The advantage of providing the plurality of elongated slots is that each connecting assembly is adjustable relative to the respective support bracket without making any modification in the connecting assembly and the support bracket. Further, this substantially reduces the overall physical effort and the time required for adjusting the connecting assembly relative to the respective support bracket, which further increases the overall flexibility of the elevator installation.

[0023] The second connecting member comprises a first portion and a second portion. The first portion abuts an outer surface of one of the support brackets. The second portion orthogonally extends from the first portion and is mounted with the second member of the fixation bracket. Advantageously, the plurality of elongated slots is formed on the first portion, which allows the adjustment of the connecting assembly relative to the respective support bracket.The second connecting member comprises at least one opening formed on a top surface of the second portion to reinforce the second connecting member.

[0024] Advantageously, the implementation of the at least one opening improves the overall strength of the second connecting member, which further enhances the strength of the connection assembly.

[0025] The elevator installation comprises a plurality of dampers positioned between each connecting bracket assembly and the second member of the fixation bracket. The plurality of dampers is adapted to dampen a transfer of vibrations from each connecting bracket assembly to the fixation bracket.

[0026] The advantage of providing the plurality of dampers is that the transfer of vibrations from each connecting bracket assembly to the fixation bracket is restricted. This reduces the overall load acting on the fixation bracket due to the vibrations caused during the operation of the elevator installation, which further increases the service life of the fixation bracket.
