摘要: A governor assembly for an elevator system. The governor assembly includes: a sheave configured to rotate about a central axis (X-X) thereof at a speed related to the speed of movement of an elevator car; a plurality of masses mounted to the sheave for rotation therewith about the central axis (X-X) and configured to move from a first radial position to a second radial position, radially outward of the first radial position, when a speed of rotation of the sheave meets or exceeds a set speed; a sensor configured to detect that the plurality of masses have reached the second radial position; and a brake moveable from a non-braking position in which the sheave is free to rotate to a braking position in which the brake contacts the sheave so as to slow or stop rotation of the sheave.

摘要: An electrical converter unit and a method for reducing thermal stress of a power semiconductor switch, such as an IGBT, of an electrical converter unit, the electrical converter unit comprising at least a gate control circuit wherein the electrical converter unit controls an electrical motor. The method comprises determining load and estimating required motor current based on the determined load and/or a predetermined speed profile. The electrical converter unit has at least a first operating state and a second operating state. The second operating state is used if predetermined criteria is fulfilled, the predetermined criteria relating to at least one of the following: estimated required current, measured motor speed, temperature of the power semiconductor switch and/or electrical converter unit, temperature model of the power semiconductor switch and/or electrical converter unit. In the second operating state a lower switching frequency of the power semiconductor switch is used than in the first operating state, and in the second operating state a higher switching speed of the power semiconductor switch is used than in the first operating state.

摘要: A method and a device for determining an operating state of an elevator system include determining a current/time profile of a current supplied to the elevator system via a power supply line, identifying at least one current profile segment of the current/time profile, and deriving a current profile pattern of the identified current profile segment. The operating state of the elevator system is determined based on comparing the current profile pattern to at least one reference pattern. The method and the device may also be easily used by personnel without electrical training and may be used in elevator systems that are not known in detail.
