Abstract
A landing lever assembly of a pneumatic vacuum elevator is disclosed. The assembly includes a landing lever plate coupled on a roof of an elevator cabin. The assembly also includes a locking plate coupled to the landing lever plate using a plurality of support plates. The assembly further includes a solenoid valve disposed on the landing lever plate and mechanically coupled to the locking plate using a guide pin, where the guide pin is configured to actuate the locking plate by sliding within the solenoid valve, in at least one operational mode, based on an activation signal received from a magnetic sensor.
Claims8
A landing lever assembly of a pneumatic vacuum elevator comprising:
- a landing lever plate coupled on a roof of an elevator cabin;
- a locking plate coupled to the landing lever plate using a plurality of support plates;
- and
- a solenoid valve disposed on the landing lever plate and mechanically coupled to the locking plate using a guide pin,
- wherein the guide pin is configured to actuate the locking plate in at least one operational mode, wherein the at least one operational mode comprises:
- actuating the locking plate in a forward direction by sliding the guide pin in the forward direction based on an activation signal received from a magnetic sensor;
- and
- actuating the locking plate in a backward direction by sliding the guide pin in the backward direction based on an activation signal received from a magnetic sensor.
A method comprising:
- providing a locking plate coupled to a landing lever plate using a plurality of support plates;
- providing a solenoid valve disposed on the landing lever plate and mechanically coupled to the locking plate using a guide pin;
- and
- actuating the locking plate, in at least one operational mode, wherein actuating the locking plate in the at least one mode comprises:
- actuating the locking plate in a forward direction by sliding the guide pin in the forward direction based on an activation signal received from a magnetic sensor;
- actuating the locking plate in a backward direction by sliding the guide pin in the backward direction based on an activation signal received from a magnetic sensor.
A pneumatic vacuum elevator comprising:
- an elevator cabin configured to carry one or more users between one or more levels of a structure;
- and
- a landing lever assembly mechanically coupled to the elevator cabin, wherein the landing lever assembly comprises:
- a landing lever plate coupled on a roof of the elevator cabin;
- a locking plate coupled to the landing lever plate using a plurality of support plates;
- and
- a solenoid valve disposed on the landing lever plate and mechanically coupled to the locking plate using a guide pin,
- wherein the guide pin is configured to actuate the locking plate, in at least one operational mode, wherein the at least one operational mode comprises:
- actuating the locking plate in a forward direction by sliding the guide pin in the forward direction based on an activation signal received from a magnetic sensor;
- and
- actuating the locking plate in a backward direction by sliding the guide pin in the backward direction based on an activation signal received from a magnetic sensor.
