Definitions
- the present invention relates to an elevator apparatus in which a drive device (hoisting machine) for raising and lowering a car and a counterweight is arranged in a hoistway (so-called machine room-less elevator apparatus).
- JP 01267286 A discloses a self-supported steel frame that supports each equipment of an elevator such as the hoist, the cage, a counterweight, or the like, dispensing with any load burden on a building.
- EP 0 849 209 A1 discloses a mounting apparatus for a traction machine disposed in a hoistway which includes a pair of beams that extend through the hoistway to the pit.
- the present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problem, and therefore it is an object of the present invention to provide an elevator apparatus capable of achieving a reduction in manufacturing cost and space saving.
- An elevator apparatus includes: a car and a counterweight that are capable of being raised and lowered in a hoistway; guide rails arranged in the hoistway for guiding the car and a counterweight respectively; a support structure having a support column extending upwardly from a bottom portion of the hoistway, the support structure being arranged in the hoistway separately from the guide rails; a drive device having a drive sheave and supported by the support structure; and a main rope wound around the drive sheave, for suspending the car and the counterweight.
- Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing an elevator apparatus according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention.
- a pair of car guide rails 2, 3, and a pair of counterweight guide rails 4, 5 are arranged in a hoistway 1.
- a car 6 is raised and lowered in the hoistway 1 while being guided by the car guide rails 2, 3, and a counterweight 7 is raised and lowered in the hoistway 1 while being guided by the counterweight guide rails 4, 5.
- the car 6 and the counterweight 7 are arranged adjacent to each other with respect to the width direction of the car 6 within the vertical projection plane of the hoistway 1. Further, as seen in the vertical projection of the hoistway 1, the line connecting between the car guide rails 2, 3 is perpendicular to the line connecting between the counterweight guide rails 4, 5.
- support structures 8, 9 Arranged on one and the other side portions of the hoistway 1 are support structures 8, 9 for supporting the loads of the car 6 and counterweight 7, respectively.
- the support structures 8, 9 are arranged separately and independently from the car guide rails 2, 3 and the counterweight guide rails 4, 5, respectively. It should be noted that a die steel member used for construction is used as each of the support structures 8, 9.
- the support structure 8 has a pair of (two) support columns 10 extending upwardly from the bottom portion of the hoistway 1, and a support beam 11 horizontally arranged between the support columns 10 and fixed to an upper end portion of each support column 10.
- the support columns 10 are spaced apart from each other with respect to the depth direction of the car 6.
- the support beam 11 extends in the depth direction of the car 6 and is arranged at a top portion of the hoistway 1.
- the support structure 9 has a pair of (two) support columns 12 extending upwardly from the bottom portion of the hoistway 1, and a support beam 13 that is horizontally arranged between the support columns 12 and fixed to an upper end portion of each support column 12.
- the support columns 12 are spaced apart from each other with respect to the depth direction of the car 6.
- the support beam 13 extends in the depth direction of the car 6 and is arranged at a top portion of the hoistway 1.
- the pair of counterweight guide rails 4, 5 is arrangedbetween the support columns 12. Further, the support beam 13 is arranged above the counterweight guide rails 4,5 and the counterweight 7.
- the drive device 14 Fixed on the support beam 13 is a drive device (hoisting machine) 14 for raising and lowering the car 6 and the counterweight 7.
- the drive device 14 has a drive device main body 15 including a motor, and a drive sheave 16 that is rotated by the drive device main body 15.
- a plurality of main ropes 17 are wound around the drive sheave 16.
- the car 6 and the counterweight 7 are suspended in the hoistway 1 by means of the main ropes 17.
- a pair of car suspension sheaves 18 is provided at a lower end portion of the car 6.
- a counterweight suspension sheave 19 is provided at an upper end portion of the counterweight 7.
- a first rope securing portion 20 is fixed to the support beam 11.
- a second rope securing portion 21 is fixed to the support beam 13.
- Each main rope 17 has a first end portion 17a connected to the first rope securing portion 20, and a second end portion 17b connected to the second rope securing portion 21. Starting from the first end portion 17a, each main rope 17 is wound around the car suspension sheaves 18, the drive sheave 16, and the counterweight suspension sheave 19 in the stated order before reaching the second end portion 17b.
- the drive device 14 is supported by the support structure 9 that is arranged in the hoistway 1 separately from the car guide rails 2, 3 and the counterweight guide rails 4, 5, whereby the load of each of the car 6 and the counterweight 7 can be at least partially supported by the support structure 9, thereby making it possible to reduce the requisite support strengths of the car guide rails 2, 3 and counterweight guide rails 4, 5.
- This allows each of the car guide rails 2, 3 and counterweight guide rails 4, 5 to be reduced in size, making it possible to achieve a reduction in the manufacturing cost of each of the car guide rails 2, 3 and the counterweight guide rails 4, 5.
- the manufacturing cost of the support structures 8, 9, which are used solely for the purpose of supporting load, is low, and the increase in cost attributable to the manufacturing cost of the support structures 8, 9 is small relative to the decrease in cost attributable to the reduced sizes of the car guide rails 2, 3 and counterweight guide rails 4, 5, thereby achieving a reduction in the manufacturing cost of the elevator apparatus as a whole.
- the horizontal sectional area of the hoistway 1 can be made smaller by adjusting the arrangement and horizontal sectional configuration of each of the support structures 8, 9, making it possible to achieve saving of space in the elevator apparatus.
- the first end portion 17a of each main rope 17 is connected to the support structure 8, and the second end portion 17b of each main rope 17 is connected to the support structure 9, whereby the loads of the car 6 and counterweight 7 can be supported by the support structures 8, 9, respectively. Accordingly, in the same manner as described above, the manufacturing cost of the elevator apparatus can be reduced, and space saving can be achieved for the elevator apparatus.
- each of the support structures 8, 9 an inexpensive steel member used for construction is used as each of the support structures 8, 9, thus enabling a further reduction in the manufacturing cost of the support structures 8, 9.
- the present invention is applied to an elevator apparatus of a type (2:1 roping) in which the car 6 and the counterweight 7 are suspended by winding the main ropes 17 around the car suspension sheaves 18 and the counterweight suspension sheave 19, respectively
- the present invention is also applicable to an elevator apparatus of a type (1: 1 roping) in which the car 6 and the counterweight 7 are suspended by connecting the first end portion 17a of each main rope 17 to the car 6 and connecting the second end portion 17b of each main rope 17 to the counterweight 7, respectively.
- the number of support columns 10 is two, the number of support columns 10 may be three or more. In this case, the support columns 10 are arranged at a spacing from each other in the depth direction of the car 6.
- the number of support columns 12 is two, the number of support columns 12 may be three or more.
- the support columns 12 are arranged at a spacing from each other in the depth direction of the car 6 so as to avoid interference with the counterweight guide rails 4, 5 and the counterweight 7.
- Fig. 2 is a perspective view showing an elevator apparatus according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention.
- a car 6 and a counterweight 7 are arranged adjacent to each other with respect to the depth direction of the car 6 as seen in the vertical projection plane of a hoistway 1. Further, as seen in the vertical projection of the hoistway 1, the line connecting between car guide rails 2, 3 is parallel to the line connecting between counterweight guide rails 4, 5.
