    摘要: A method for modernizing an elevator system, includes using a first and second car for transporting passengers and/or goods between vertically displaced floors of a building, and thereafter removing the first elevator car from use for transporting passengers and/or goods between vertically displaced floors, and thereafter installing a construction time elevator into the lower end of the first hoistway, the traveling zone of the car of the construction time elevator covering only partially the height of the first hoistway; and thereafter using the car of the construction time elevator and the second car simultaneously for transporting passengers and/or goods between vertically displaced floors of the building, during which using the method includes performing construction work in the first hoistway above the traveling zone of the car of the construction time elevator; and thereafter changing the traveling zone of the car of the construction time elevator to extend higher in the hoistway, and thereafter using the car of the construction time elevator and the second car simultaneously for transporting passengers and/or goods between vertically displaced floors, during which using the method comprises performing construction work in the first hoistway above the traveling zone of the car of the construction time elevator.

    摘要: The invention relates to a belt-shaped rope of an elevator having opposite lateral sides facing in thickness direction of the rope, at least one of the lateral sides being shaped to have elongated ribs that are disposed adjacent each other in width direction of the rope and extend parallel with the longitudinal direction of the rope. Each said rib has a first flank face for contacting a flank face of a rib of a rope wheel, and a second flank face for contacting a flank face of a rib of a rope wheel. Each said first and second flank face is shaped to have an arcuate cross-sectional profile, and said first and second flank face are shaped to arc to such steepness that the angle defined between their tangents is acute, and the surface material of said flank faces has shore A hardness more than 85 and less than 100. The invention also relates to an elevator arrangement as well as to an elevator, implementing the aforementioned belt-shaped rope.

    摘要: An elevator car includes a suspension device for supporting the elevator car in the elevator hoistway and a car box. A floor, vertical beam, and roof beam elements form a load-bearing frame structure of the car box. A plurality of planar elements of rectangular shape are fixed side-by-side to the frame structure and extend essentially from one edge side of the car box to another. The frame structure and/or said planar elements of said car box comprises one or more sandwich type beam and/or plate elements comprising a first skin and a second skin and one or more core elements. The core elements are formed from the first skin by cutting and bending or by punching through one or more core members from the cutting edge of the first skin towards the second skin and by joining the core members to the second skin of the beam and/or plate element.

    摘要: A rope of a lifting device, more particularly of a passenger transport elevator and/or freight transport elevator, an elevator, and a method for manufacturing the rope are disclosed. The rope includes an unbroken load-bearing part, the profile of which is essentially of rectangular shape, and the width of the cross-section is greater than the thickness and which load-bearing part comprises glass fiber reinforcements and/or aramid fiber reinforcements and/or carbon fiber reinforcements and/or polybenzoxazole fiber reinforcements and/or polyethylene fiber reinforcements and/or nylon fiber reinforcements in a polymer matrix material. The long sides of the cross-section of the load-bearing part include one or more grooves symmetrically or asymmetrically in the longitudinal direction of the rope, which grooves divide the load-bearing part into smaller parts.
