Abstract: An exemplary elevator system includes an elevator car situated for movement along at least one guide rail. A braking device is supported for movement with the elevator car. The braking device includes a plurality of magnet members and a plurality of cooperating members. The cooperating members are selectively movable between first and second positions relative to the magnet members. In the first position the elevator car is allowed to move along the guide rail. In the second position the magnet members and the cooperating members cooperate to cause an electromagnetic interaction between the braking device and the guide rail to resist movement of the elevator car along the guide rail.

Abstract: An elevator system 40 includes an electronic system 48 capable of triggering a machine room brake and an electromagnetic safety trigger 46 with low hysteresis and with minimal power requirements that can be released to engage safeties 70A, 70B when car over-speed and/or over-acceleration is detected. The electromagnetic trigger 46 may be reset automatically and may be released to engage the safeties 70A, 70B during the reset procedure. The system includes an over-speed and over-acceleration detection and processing system that is configured to decrease response time and to reduce the occurrence of false triggers caused by conditions unrelated to passenger safety, such as passengers jumping inside the elevator car 16.

Abstract: An elevator system (20) includes multiple elevator cars (22, 32) within a hoistway (26). Counterweights (24, 34) are associated with the respective elevator cars (22, 32) by load bearing members (40, 50). In some examples, different roping ratios are used for the load bearing members (40, 50). In some examples, the lengths of the load bearing members (40, 50) are selected to allow contact between the counterweights (24, 34) within the hoistway (26) and prevent contact between the elevator cars (22, 32). The difference in car and counterweight separation distances is greater than a stroke of a counterweight buffer plus an expected dynamic jump of the elevator cars. A disclosed example includes passages (80) through a portion of at least one of the elevator cars (22) for accommodating the load bearing member (50) of another elevator car (32) located beneath the elevator car (22) with the passages (80).

Abstract: The point at which pump out pressure exceeds load is sensed to provide a point for scheduling flow to an actuator in a hydraulic system. Flow is controlled by a stepper motor (28) that moves a flow control valve (27). The steps needed to achieve fixed flow changes are greater for high flow positions. When the pump (21) is turned on, the valve (27) is positioned to bypass flow; the bypass flow is then programmably decreased to the actuator. Reverse flow is regulated by the valve (27) to control actuator retraction. Reverse flow is initiated by opening a check valve (40) with an actuator (50) that opens it first to reduce pressure across the valve, then fully. The flow control valve (27) also operates to relieve excess pressure in the system. During a descent the stepper rate is started at a first stored rate for worse conditions, the car velocity is measured and successive stored rates are increased or decreased.
