Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Aufzugsanlage mit einer Überwachungsvorrichtung für ein Tragmittel, sowie ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung eines Zustandes eines Tragmittels in einer Aufzugsanlage.The present invention relates to an elevator installation with a monitoring device for a suspension element, and to a method for determining a state of a suspension element in an elevator installation.
Bei Aufzugsanlagen wurden zum Tragen und / oder Antreiben einer Aufzugskabine herkömmlicherweise Stahlseile als Tragmittel eingesetzt. Gemäss einer Weiterentwicklung solcher Stahlseile werden auch riemenartige Tragmittel, welche Zugträger und eine um die Zugträger angeordnete Ummantelung aufweisen, eingesetzt. Solche riemenartigen Tragmittel lassen sich jedoch nicht auf herkömmliche Art überwachen, weil die Zugträger, welche eine Bruchlast des Tragmittels bestimmen, nicht sichtbar sind durch die Ummantelung.In elevator systems, steel cables have traditionally been used as support means for carrying and / or driving an elevator car. According to a further development of such steel cables, belt-type suspension elements which have tension members and a jacket arranged around the tension members are also used. However, such belt-like support means can not be monitored in a conventional manner, because the tension members, which determine a breaking load of the suspension element, are not visible through the sheath.
Zur Überwachung solcher Zugträger in riemenartigen Tragmitteln kann ein Prüfstrom an die Zugträger angelegt werden. In dem so gebildeten Stromkreis oder in mehreren so gebildeten Stromkreisen wird ein Stromfluss bzw. eine Stromstärke, eine Spannung, ein elektrischer Widerstand oder eine elektrische Leitfähigkeit gemessen. Anhand einer derart gemessenen Grösse kann auf eine Intaktheit bzw. einen Abnützungsgrad des Tragmittels zurückgeschlossen werden. Verringert sich nämlich der Durchmesser eines Zugträgers durch Brüche einzelner Drähte oder durch metallischen Abrieb, wächst der elektrische Widerstand dieses Zugträgers an.To monitor such tension members in belt-like suspension means, a test current can be applied to the tension members. In the circuit thus formed or in a plurality of circuits thus formed, a current flow, a voltage, an electrical resistance or an electrical conductivity is measured. On the basis of a size measured in this way, it is possible to deduce an integrity or a degree of wear of the suspension element. Namely, reduces the diameter of a tension member by fractures of individual wires or by metallic abrasion, the electrical resistance of this tension member increases.
Die Offenlegungsschrift
Das Patent
Bei all diesen bekannten Überwachungen des Tragmittels ist jedoch nachteilig, dass Umwelteinflüsse, welche den elektrischen Widerstand eines Zugträgers beeinflussen, nur ungenügend berücksichtigt werden. So haben neben der Temperatur auch andere Faktoren einen Einfluss auf die Leitfähigkeit der Zugträger, wie beispielsweise magnetische Felder oder die Luftfeuchtigkeit. Die bekannten Überwachungen liefern daher keine verlässlichen Angaben zum Zustand des Tragmittels.In all these known monitoring of the suspension means, however, is disadvantageous that environmental influences, which affect the electrical resistance of a tension member, are considered insufficient. In addition to the temperature, other factors have an influence on the conductivity of the tensile carriers, such as magnetic fields or humidity. The known monitors therefore provide no reliable information about the condition of the suspension.
Es ist daher eine Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung eines Zustandes eines Tragmittels bereitzustellen, welches verschiedene Umwelteinflüsse auf die elektrische Leitfähigkeit der Zugträger berücksichtigt, und welches kostengünstig und robust im Gebrauch ist. Zudem ist es eine Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Aufzugsanlage mit einer Überwachungsvorrichtung zur Überwachung eines Tragmittels zur Verfügung zu stellen, wobei bei einer Bestimmung eines Tragmittelzustandes verschiedene Umwelteinflüsse auf die elektrische Leitfähigkeit der Zugträger des Tragmittels berücksichtigt werden.It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a method for determining a state of a suspension, which takes into account various environmental influences on the electrical conductivity of the tension members, and which is inexpensive and robust in use. In addition, it is an object of the present invention to provide an elevator installation with a monitoring device for monitoring a suspension element, wherein, when determining a suspension element state, various environmental influences on the electrical conductivity of the tension members of the suspension element are taken into account.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird zunächst eine Aufzugsanlage mit einer Kabine und mindestens einem Tragmittel vorgeschlagen, wobei die Kabine vom Tragmittel zumindest teilweise getragen ist, und wobei das Tragmittel mehrere parallel zueinander angeordnete elektrisch leitende Zugträger umfasst, welche im Wesentlichen von einem Mantel umhüllt sind. Die Aufzugsanlage umfasst weiter eine Überwachungsvorrichtung, welche die Zugträger oder Gruppen von Zugträgern als elektrische Widerstände in wechselnder Konstellation in einer Messbrücke verschaltet, so dass elektrische Widerstände verschiedener Zugträger oder Gruppen von Zugträgern anhand einer Brückenspannung miteinander vergleichbar sind.To solve this problem, an elevator installation with a cabin and at least one suspension element is first proposed, wherein the cabin is at least partially supported by the suspension element, and wherein the suspension element comprises a plurality of mutually parallel electrically conductive tension members, which are substantially surrounded by a jacket. The elevator installation further comprises a monitoring device which detects the tension members or groups of tension members as electrical resistances changing constellation connected in a measuring bridge, so that electrical resistances of different tension members or groups of tension members are comparable to each other based on a bridge voltage.
Eine solche Aufzugsanlage erscheint zunächst nachteilig, weil keine absoluten Werte für die Beurteilung eines Tragmittelzustandes zur Verfügung stehen. Eine solche Vorrichtung erlaubt es jedoch, eine qualitative Aussage über den Zustand der Zugträger des Tragmittels zu erstellen, welche nicht durch Umwelteinflüsse wie Temperatur, Luftfeuchtigkeit oder magnetische Felder verfälscht wird. Dies wird erreicht durch einen Vergleich von Zugträgern, welche im Wesentlichen identischen Umwelteinflüssen ausgesetzt werden. Somit kann der Zustand des Tragmittels mit der hier vorgeschlagenen Vorrichtung besser eingeschätzt werden.
Eine Verschaltung der Zugträger als elektrische Widerstände in einer Messbrücke hat zudem den Vorteil, dass eine entsprechende Überwachungsvorrichtung kostengünstig herstellbar ist und zudem robust in der Anwendung ist. Zudem steht mit der Brückenspannung als Indikator für den Zustand des Tragmittels ein einfach zu beurteilender und zudem einfach zu bestimmender Parameter zur Verfügung. Dadurch wird die Überwachung des Tragmittels massgeblich vereinfacht, und verfälschte Messwerte sowie Interpretationsfehler können weitgehend ausgeschaltet werden.Such an elevator system initially appears disadvantageous because no absolute values are available for the assessment of a suspension element state. However, such a device makes it possible to make a qualitative statement about the state of the tension members of the suspension element, which is not distorted by environmental influences such as temperature, humidity or magnetic fields. This is achieved by a comparison of tension members, which are exposed to substantially identical environmental influences. Thus, the condition of the suspension element with the device proposed here can be better estimated.
An interconnection of the tension members as electrical resistors in a measuring bridge also has the advantage that a corresponding monitoring device can be produced inexpensively and is also robust in use. In addition, with the bridge voltage as an indicator of the state of the support means is an easy-to-assess and also easy to determine parameters available. As a result, the monitoring of the suspension is significantly simplified, and distorted readings and interpretation errors can be largely eliminated.
Eine Verschaltung der Zugträger oder Gruppen von Zugträgern in wechselnder Konstellation zu elektrischen Widerständen in der Messbrücke hat den Vorteil, dass jeder Zugträger bzw. jede Gruppe von Zugträgern mit einer Anzahl von anderen Zugträgern bzw. Gruppen von Zugträgern verglichen werden kann. Dies erhöht eine Aussagekraft über den Zustand einzelner Zugträger bzw. Gruppen von Zugträgern, weil dadurch auch ähnlich starke Defekte bei verschiedenen Zugträgern bzw. Gruppen von Zugträgern zuverlässig erkannt werden können.An interconnection of the tension members or groups of tension members in alternating constellation to electrical resistances in the measuring bridge has the advantage that each tension member or each group of tension members can be compared with a number of other tension members or groups of tension members. This increases the information about the condition of individual tension members or groups of tension members, because this also enables similar defects to be reliably detected with different tension members or groups of tension members.
In einer beispielhaften Ausführungsform ist jeweils ein einzelner Zugträger als ein elektrischer Widerstand in der Messbrücke verschaltet. Dabei können mehrere Zugträger eines einzigen Tragmittels miteinander in einer Messbrücke verschaltet sein, oder es können Zugträger verschiedener Tragmittel der Aufzugsanlage miteinander in einer Messbrücke verschaltet sein. Eine solche Verschaltung der Zugträger hat den Vorteil, dass jeder einzelne Zugträger eines Tragmittels auf seinen Zustand überprüft werden kann. Eine solche Verschaltung erfordert jedoch eine Reihe von Messungen, um alle Zugträger aller Tragmittel einer Aufzugsanlage zu überprüfen.In an exemplary embodiment, in each case a single tension member is connected as an electrical resistance in the measuring bridge. In this case, a plurality of tension members of a single suspension element can be connected to one another in a measuring bridge, or tensile carriers of different suspension elements of the elevator installation can be connected to one another in a measuring bridge. Such an interconnection of the tension members has the advantage that each individual tension member of a suspension element is checked for its condition can. However, such an interconnection requires a series of measurements in order to check all tension members of all suspension elements of an elevator installation.
In einer beispielhaften Ausführungsform sind jeweils mehrere Zugträger eines Tragmittels als Gruppe als ein elektrischer Widerstand in der Messbrücke verschaltet. Dabei können mehrere Gruppen von Zugträger eines einzigen Tragmittels miteinander in einer Messbrücke verschaltet sein, oder es können Gruppen von Zugträger verschiedener Tragmittel der Aufzugsanlage miteinander in einer Messbrücke verschaltet sein. Eine solche Verschaltung der Zugträger hat den Vorteil, dass weniger Messvorgänge notwendig sind, um alle Zugträger aller Tragmittel einer Aufzugsanlage zu überprüfen. Durch eine geeignete Bündelung der Zugträger zu Gruppen kann so eine effiziente Überwachung der Tragmittel erreicht werden.In an exemplary embodiment, in each case a plurality of tension members of a suspension element are interconnected as a group as an electrical resistance in the measuring bridge. In this case, several groups of tension members of a single suspension element can be connected to one another in a measuring bridge, or groups of tension members of different suspension elements of the elevator installation can be connected to one another in a measuring bridge. Such an interconnection of the tension members has the advantage that fewer measuring operations are necessary in order to check all tension members of all suspension elements of an elevator installation. By a suitable bundling of the tension members into groups, an efficient monitoring of the suspension elements can thus be achieved.
In einer beispielhaften Ausführungsform sind jeweils alle Zugträger eines Tragmittels als Gruppe als ein elektrischer Widerstand in der Messbrücke verschaltet. Eine solche Verschaltung der Zugträger hat den Vorteil, dass die einzelnen Zugträger eines Tragmittels nicht zwingend einzeln kontaktiert werden müssen, sondern als gesamte Gruppe kontaktiert werden können. Dies vereinfacht die elektrische Kontaktierung der Zugträger wesentlich. Allerdings ist es bei einer solchen Art der elektrischen Kontaktierung bzw. Verschaltung der Zugträger nicht möglich, eine Aussage über einen einzelnen Zugträger eines Tragmittels zu erstellen.In an exemplary embodiment, all tensile carriers of a suspension element are interconnected as a group as an electrical resistance in the measuring bridge. Such an interconnection of the tension members has the advantage that the individual tension members of a suspension element do not necessarily have to be contacted individually, but can be contacted as an entire group. This significantly simplifies the electrical contacting of the tension members. However, it is not possible with such a type of electrical contacting or interconnection of the tension members to provide information about a single tension member of a suspension element.
In einer beispielhaften Ausführungsform sind die Zugträger einer Gruppe jeweils in Serie miteinander verschaltet, und bilden so einen elektrischen Widerstand in der Messbrücke. In einer alternativen Ausführungsform sind die Zugträger einer Gruppe jeweils parallel miteinander verschaltet, und bilden so einen elektrischen Widerstand in der Messbrücke. Je nach Ausgestaltung des Tragmittels, das heisst beispielsweise je nach Material und Durchmesser der Zugträger eines Tragmittels, kann die eine oder die andere Verschaltung vorteilhaft sein. Es sollte dabei darauf geachtet werden, dass Schäden an den Zugträgern, welche in einer Änderung des elektrischen Widerstandes der Zugträger resultieren, zuverlässig erkannt werden. Je nach Art der Messbrücke und je nach Ausgestaltung der Zugträger kann hier eine Verschaltung optimal an die Verhältnisse angepasst werden.In an exemplary embodiment, the tensile carriers of a group are each interconnected in series, thus forming an electrical resistance in the measuring bridge. In an alternative embodiment, the tension members of a group are each connected in parallel with one another, thus forming an electrical resistance in the measuring bridge. Depending on the design of the suspension element, that is, for example, depending on the material and diameter of the tension members of a suspension element, one or the other interconnection may be advantageous. It should be ensured that damage to the tension members, which result in a change in the electrical resistance of the tension members are reliably detected. Depending on the type of measuring bridge and depending on the design of the tension members, an interconnection can be optimally adapted to the conditions here.
In einer beispielhaften Ausführungsform sind vier elektrische Widerstände bestehend aus einem oder mehreren Zugträgern in einer Wheatstoneschen Messbrücke verschaltet. Eine solche Wheatstonesche Messbrücke hat den Vorteil, dass durch eine Bestimmung der Brückenspannung zuverlässig ein abweichender elektrischer Widerstand festgestellt werden kann. Dadurch wird eine zuverlässige Erkennung eines defekten Zugträgers bzw. einer Gruppe von defekten Zugträgern gewährleistet.In an exemplary embodiment, four electrical resistances are comprised of interconnected one or more tension members in a Wheatstone bridge. Such a Wheatstone bridge has the advantage that a deviating electrical resistance can be reliably determined by a determination of the bridge voltage. This ensures a reliable detection of a defective tension member or a group of defective tension members.
In einer beispielhaften Ausführungsform sind durch die Überwachungsvorrichtung keine absoluten elektrischen Widerstandswerte der Zugträger bzw. der Gruppen von Zugträgern bestimmbar. Eine solche Ausgestaltung der Überwachungsvorrichtung hat den Vorteil, dass die Überwachungsvorrichtung kostengünstig und einfach herzustellen ist.In an exemplary embodiment, no absolute electrical resistance values of the tension members or the groups of tension members can be determined by the monitoring device. Such an embodiment of the monitoring device has the advantage that the monitoring device is inexpensive and easy to manufacture.
Zur Lösung der eingangs gestellten Aufgabe wird zudem ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung eines Zustandes mindestens eines Tragmittels in einer Aufzugsanlage vorgeschlagen. Die Aufzugsanlage umfasst dabei eine Kabine und mindestens ein Tragmittel, wobei die Kabine vom Tragmittel zumindest teilweise getragen ist, und wobei das Tragmittel mehrere parallel zueinander angeordnete elektrisch leitende Zugträger umfasst, welche im Wesentlichen von einem Mantel umhüllt sind. Das Verfahren umfasst die Schritte: Verschalten der Zugträger oder Gruppen von Zugträgern in wechselnder Konstellation zu elektrischen Widerständen in einer Messbrücke; und Ermitteln eines Zustandes des Tragmittels durch einen Vergleich der elektrischen Widerstände der Zugträger oder Gruppen von Zugträgern anhand einer Brückenspannung.In order to solve the problem set out above, a method is also proposed for determining a state of at least one suspension element in an elevator installation. The elevator installation in this case comprises a cabin and at least one suspension element, wherein the cabin is at least partially supported by the suspension element, and wherein the suspension element comprises a plurality of mutually parallel electrically conductive tension members, which are substantially enveloped by a jacket. The method comprises the steps: interconnecting the tension members or groups of tension members in alternating constellation to electrical resistances in a measuring bridge; and determining a state of the suspension element by comparing the electrical resistances of the tensile carriers or groups of tensile carriers by means of a bridge voltage.
Ein solches Verfahren ist zunächst nachteilig, weil keine absoluten Werte für die Auswertung der Messresultate zur Verfügung stehen. Das Verfahren erlaubt es jedoch, eine qualitative Aussage über den Zustand der Zugträger des Tragmittels zu erstellen, welche nicht durch Umwelteinflüsse wie Temperatur, Luftfeuchtigkeit oder magnetische Felder verfälscht wird. Dies wird erreicht durch einen Vergleich von Zugträgern, welche im Wesentlichen identischen Umwelteinflüssen ausgesetzt sind. Somit kann ein Zustand des Tragmittels besser eingeschätzt werden.Such a method is initially disadvantageous because no absolute values are available for the evaluation of the measurement results. However, the method makes it possible to make a qualitative statement about the state of the tension members of the suspension element, which is not distorted by environmental influences such as temperature, humidity or magnetic fields. This is achieved by a comparison of tension members, which are exposed to substantially identical environmental influences. Thus, a condition of the suspension element can be better estimated.
Die Verschaltung der Zugträger bzw. der Gruppen von Zugträgern in wechselnder Konstellation hat den Vorteil, dass durch den Vergleich eines Zugträgers bzw. einer Gruppe von Zugträgern mit einer grösseren Anzahl von Zugträgern bzw. Gruppen von Zugträgern eine bessere Aussage über den Zustand des einzelnen Zugträgers bzw. derThe interconnection of the tension members or the groups of tension members in alternating constellation has the advantage that by comparing a tension member or a group of tension members with a larger number of tension members or groups of tension members a better statement about the condition of the individual tension member or . of the
Gruppe von Zugträgern gemacht werden kann.Group of tension members can be made.
In einer beispielhaften Ausführungsform bilden jeweils einzelne Zugträger einen elektrischen Widerstand in der Messbrücke. In einer alternativen Ausführungsform bilden jeweils mehrere oder alle Zugträger eines Tragmittels einen elektrischen Widerstand in der Messbrücke.In an exemplary embodiment, each individual tensile carriers form an electrical resistance in the measuring bridge. In an alternative embodiment, in each case several or all tensile carriers of a suspension element form an electrical resistance in the measuring bridge.
In einer beispielhaften Ausführungsform wird der elektrische Widerstand jedes Zugträgers bzw. jeder Gruppe von Zugträgern der Aufzugsanlage mit elektrischen Widerständen von zumindest drei anderen Zugträgern bzw. drei anderen Gruppen von Zugträgern verglichen. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass durch ein solches Verfahren eine ausreichend gute Aussage über den Zustand eines Zugträgers bzw. einer Gruppe von Zugträgern gemacht werden kann, und dass die Zugträger bzw. die Gruppen von Zugträgern in einer einfachen und robusten Wheatstoneschen Messbrücke verschaltet werden können. Dabei kann durch die Bestimmung eines Parameters, insbesondere die Brückenspannung, eine Aussage über den Zustand von vier Zugträgern bzw. vier Gruppen von Zugträgern gemacht werden. Somit wird hier ein sehr effizientes und zuverlässiges Verfahren zur Bestimmung eines Zustandes eines Tragmittels in einer Aufzugsanlage zur Verfügung gestellt.In an exemplary embodiment, the electrical resistance of each tension member or group of tension members of the elevator installation is compared with electrical resistances of at least three other tension members or three other groups of tension members. This has the advantage that a sufficiently good statement about the condition of a tension member or a group of tension members can be made by such a method, and that the tension members or the groups of tension members can be interconnected in a simple and robust Wheatstone bridge. In this case, by determining a parameter, in particular the bridge voltage, a statement can be made about the condition of four tension members or four groups of tension members. Thus, a very efficient and reliable method for determining a state of a suspension element in an elevator installation is provided here.
In einer beispielhaften Ausführungsform werden beim Ermitteln des Zustandes des Tragmittels keine absoluten Widerstandswerte der Zugträger bzw. der Gruppen von Zugträgern bestimmt. Ein solches Verfahren hat wiederum den Vorteil, dass dadurch nicht unnötig viele Parameter gemessen und ausgewertet werden müssen. Dies verhindert das Risiko von Messfehlern und Fehlinterpretationen von Messresultaten.In an exemplary embodiment, when determining the state of the suspension element, no absolute resistance values of the tension members or the groups of tension members are determined. Such a method in turn has the advantage that it does not require unnecessarily many parameters to be measured and evaluated. This prevents the risk of measurement errors and misinterpretations of measurement results.
Die hier offenbarte Bestimmung eines Zustandes eines Tragmittels bzw. die hier offenbarte Überwachungseinrichtung kann in unterschiedlichen Arten von Aufzugsanlagen eingesetzt werden. So können beispielsweise Aufzugsanlagen mit oder ohne Schacht, mit oder ohne Gegengewicht, oder Aufzugsanlagen mit unterschiedlichen Übersetzungsverhältnissen eingesetzt werden. Somit kann jedes riemenartige Tragmittel in einer Aufzugsanlage, welches eine Kabine trägt, mit der hier offenbarten Methode bzw. Vorrichtung überwacht werden.The determination of a condition of a suspension element disclosed here or the monitoring device disclosed here can be used in different types of elevator installations. For example, elevator systems with or without shaft, with or without counterweight, or elevator systems with different gear ratios can be used. Thus, each belt-type suspension element in an elevator installation, which carries a car, can be monitored with the method or device disclosed here.

Ein loses Ende 1.1 des Tragmittels 1 ist mit einer Kontaktierungsvorrichtung 2 zur temporären oder permanenten elektrischen Kontaktierung der Zugträger und somit zur Überwachung des Tragmittels 1 versehen. Im dargestellten Beispiel ist an beiden Enden 1.1 des Tragmittels 1 eine derartige Kontaktierungsvorrichtung 2 angeordnet. In einer alternativen nicht dargestellten Ausführungsform ist nur eine Kontaktierungsvorrichtung 2 an einem der Tragmittelenden 1.1 angeordnet, und die Zugträger am anderen Tragmittelende 1.1 sind elektrisch miteinander verbunden. Die Tragmittelenden 1.1 sind von der Zugkraft im Tragmittel 1 nicht mehr belastet, da diese Zugkraft bereits vorgängig über die Tragmittelbefestigungsvorrichtungen 47 in das Gebäude geleitet ist. Die Kontaktierungsvorrichtungen 2 sind also in einem nicht überrollten Bereich des Tragmittels 1 und ausserhalb des belasteten Bereichs des Tragmittels 1 angeordnet.A loose end 1.1 of the
Im Beispiel ist die Kontaktierungsvorrichtung 2 an einem Ende des Tragmittels 1.1 mit einer Überwachungsvorrichtung 3 verbunden. Die Überwachungsvorrichtung 3 verschaltet dabei die Zugträger des Tragmittels 1 als elektrische Widerstände in einer Messbrücke. Dadurch sind die elektrischen Widerstände von verschiedenen Zugträgern anhand einer von der Überwachungseinrichtung 3 ermittelten Brückenspannung miteinander vergleichbar. Die Überwachungsvorrichtung 3 ist zudem mit der Aufzugssteuerung 45 verbunden. Dadurch kann ein Signal oder ein Messwert von der Überwachungsvorrichtung 3 an die Aufzugssteuerung 45 übermittelt werden, um den Zustand des Tragmittels 1, wie ermittelt von der Überwachungsvorrichtung 3, in einer Steuerung des Aufzuges 40 zu berücksichtigen.In the example, the contacting

In diesem Beispiel ist das Tragmittel mit Längsrippen auf einer Traktionsseite ausgestattet. Solche Längsrippen verbessern ein Traktionsverhalten des Tragmittels 1 auf der Treibscheibe 43 und erleichtern zudem eine seitliche Führung des Tragmittels 1 auf der Treibscheibe 43. Das Tragmittel 1 kann jedoch auch anders ausgestaltet werden, beispielsweise ohne Längsrippen, oder mit einer anderen Anzahl oder anderen Anordnung der Zugträger 5. Wesentlich für die Erfindung ist es, dass die Zugträger 5 elektrisch leitend ausgestaltet sind.In

Die hier gezeigten Messbrücken sind Beispiele für eine geeignete Messbrücke zur Ermittlung eines Zustandes eines Tragmittels. Es versteht sich von selbst, dass auch andersartige Messbrücken zur Erzielung desselben technischen Effektes verwendet werden können. Beispielsweise kann auch eine Dreiviertel- oder eine Halbmessbrücke verwendet werden. Somit kann je nach Ausgestaltung der Aufzugsanlage bzw. des Tragmittels eine geeignete Messbrücke ausgewählt werden.The measuring bridges shown here are examples of a suitable measuring bridge for determining a condition of a suspension element. It goes without saying that different types of measuring bridges can be used to achieve the same technical effect. For example, a three-quarter or one half-bridge can be used. Thus, depending on the configuration of the elevator installation or the suspension element, a suitable measuring bridge can be selected.
