Elevator safety device and elevator safety device mounting method

An elevator safety device that is mounted onto a car that comprises a cage and a car frame that surrounds the cage, the car being moved along a guide rail and the elevator safety device applying a braking force to the car,

• wherein the elevator safety device comprises:
• a safety supporting body that comprises:
• a supporting body main body that is disposed inside a vertical stanchion groove that is disposed vertically on a vertical stanchion of the car frame;
• and
• an engaging portion that protrudes outward from the supporting body main body, and that is hooked onto an upper end portion of the vertical stanchion;
• a supporting body fixing apparatus that comprises:
• a first fixing bolt that applies pressure between a side surface of the vertical stanchion groove and the supporting body main body;
• and
• a second fixing bolt that applies pressure between the engaging portion and a guiding apparatus mounting base that is fixed to the car frame above the safety supporting body,
• the supporting body fixing apparatus being disposed on the safety supporting body so as to fix the safety supporting body to the vertical stanchion;
• a safety device main body that comprises a braking member that is displaceable relative to the safety supporting body, and that is disposed on the safety supporting body so as to apply a braking force to the car by placing the braking member in contact with the guide rail;
• a safety mounting apparatus that is mounted onto the car frame;
• and
• an actuating apparatus that is supported by the safety mounting apparatus, and that displaces the braking member to activate the safety device main body.
