Elevator car mounting

An elevator device for an elevator of the type comprising a car for carrying passengers or freight which car includes a floor portion and which car is mounted in a framework hung by a wire rope and guided by guide means in its movement along guide rails fixed to a shaft, said elevator device being characterized in that said car mounted in said framework is arranged to be freely oscillatable in a horizontal direction relative to the framework, and in that said floor portion of said car is oscillatably hung from said framework by suspending means of a length of over 0.5 meter.

An elevator device for an elevator of the type comprising a car for carrying passengers or freight mounted in a framework hung by a wire rope and guided by guide means in its movement along guide rails fixed to a shaft, said elevator device being characterized in that said car mounted in said framework is arranged to be freely oscillatable in a horizontal direction relative to the framework, and in that a plurality of bolster means are interposed between the upper surface of the bottom of the framework and the underside of the floor of the car, each bolster means including a plurality of balls interposed between an upper ball seat and a lower ball seat, and at least a resilient member being provided between the upper ball seat and the underside of the floor of the car or between the lower ball seat and the upper surface of the bottom of the framework.

An elevator device for an elevator of the type comprising a car for carrying passengers or freight mounted in a framework hung by a wire rope guided by guide means in its movement along guide rails fixed to a shaft, said elevator device being characterized in that said car mounted in said framework is arranged to be freely oscillatable in a horizontal direction to the framework, and in that a bolster means including balls is held between a first seat and a second seat, said first seat supporting said bolster means on its upper surface and being mounted on the upper surface of the bottom of the framework through a resilient member interposed therebetween, said second seat being in contact at its underside with said bolster means and at its upper surface with the underside of the floor of the car.

An elevator device for an elevator of the type comprising a car for carrying passengers or freight mounted in a framework hung by a wire rope and guided by guide means in its movement along guide rails fixed to a shaft, said elevator device being characterized in that means are provided for suspending said car in said framework to be freely swingable relative to the framework in at least a horizontal direction normal to the plane in which the framework is disposed, means adapted to be rendered operative when the elevator is stationary for limiting the horizontal fluctuating movement of the car is mounted between the car and the framework, said means for limiting horizontal fluctuating movement when the elevator is stationary includes electromagnetic means.

An elevator device for an elevator of the type comprising a car for carrying passengers or freight mounted in a framework hung by a wire rope and guided by guide means in its movement along guide rails fixed to a shaft, said elevator device being characterized in that means are provided for suspending said car in said framework to be freely swingable relative to the framework in at least a horizontal direction normal to the plane in which the framework is disposed, and in that means adapted to be rendered operative when the elevator is stationary for limiting the horizontal swinging movement of the car is mounted between the car and the framework, said means for limiting horizontal swinging includes electromagnetic means, said electromagnetic means includes an electromagnet mounted on one of the framework or the car, and a plate means mounted on the other of the framework or the car, said electromagnet upon actuation attracting said plate means to limit the horizontal movement of the car.

An elevator device for an elevator of the type comprising a car for carrying passengers or freight mounted in a framework hung by a wire rope and guided by guide means in its movement along guide rails fixed to a shaft, said elevator device being characterized in that means are provided for suspending said car in said framework to permit the car to move freely in a horizontal direction relative to the framework, and in that means for restricting excessive movement of said car in the horizontal direction relative to the framework is provided, and stopper means are provided and disposed at the framework for restricting jumping movement of the car relative to the framework which might otherwise occur when a sudden change in acceleration is generated during downward movement of the framework.
