| 20080282512 | Belt End Connection For Fastening the End of a Supporting Belt in an Elevator System and Method For Fasteining the End of a Supporting Belt in an Elevator System - A belt end connection and method for fastening a belt end in an elevator installation includes a housing having a wedge pocket for holding the support belt end and a wedge. At least one wedge pocket surface facing the wedge is provided with a roughness that is different from a roughness of another surface of the wedge pocket. Advantageously, a wedge pocket adhesion surface lying closer to a loose run of the support belt is provided with a roughness greater than the roughness of the another surface, or a wedge pocket slide surface lying closer to a supporting run of the support belt is provided with a roughness less than the roughness of the another surface. | 11-20-2008 |
| 20090001333 | ELEVATOR ELEMENT FOR DRIVING OR REVERSING AN ELEVATOR SUSPENSION MEANS IN AN ELEVATOR SYSTEM - In an elevator element for driving or reversing an elevator suspension device in an elevator system, that interacts with an elevator suspension device, the arithmetic mean of the roughness value of the contact surface measured in the circumferential direction of the elevator element, and the mean roughness value of the contact surface measured in the axial direction of the elevator element, are different. The arithmetic mean roughness value of the contact surface measured in the circumferential direction of the elevator element is less than 1 micrometer. | 01-01-2009 |
| 20090127032 | BELT END CONNECTION FOR FASTENING A BELT END IN AN ELEVATOR INSTALLATION, AND METHOD FOR PROTECTING AND CHECKING A BELT END CONNECTION IN AN ELEVATOR INSTALLATION - A belt end connection for fastening a support belt end in an elevator installation and a method for protecting and checking a belt end connection in an elevator installation includes a twisting prevention device that prevents twisting of the belt end connection about the longitudinal axis thereof. A wedge retains the support belt end in a wedge pocket and is secured by a loss prevention device against slipping out of the wedge pocket. The twisting prevention device and/or the loss prevention enable efficient protection of the support belt and/or of the belt end connection against damage and make possible efficient checking and control of the belt end connection. | 05-21-2009 |
| 20090166132 | Elevator System Having a Flat Belt with Wedge-Shaped Ribs - An elevator installation is provided that includes an elevator cage, a drive pulley, at least one support means formed as a flat belt, and a drive engine which drives the at least one support means, which carries the elevator cage, by way of the drive pulley. In the elevator installation, the support means has, at least on a running surface facing the drive pulley, several ribs of wedge-shaped or trapezium-shaped cross-section which extend parallel in a longitudinal direction of the support means and further has several tensile carriers oriented in the longitudinal direction of the support means. The tensile carriers are sized so that a total cross-sectional area of all the tensile carriers amounts to 30%-40% of a cross-sectional area of the support means. The tensile carriers may be distributed in a transverse direction of the support means so that exactly two tensile carriers are associated with each of the ribs, the tensile carriers having an outer diameter equal to 35%-40% of a rib spacing (T). | 07-02-2009 |
| 20100133046 | ELEVATOR SYSTEM, SUSPENSION ELEMENT FOR AN ELEVATOR SYSTEM, AND DEVICE FOR MANUFACTURING A SUSPENSION ELEMENT - An elevator system with a car or platform to transport passengers and/or goods as well as with a counterweight, which are arranged as traversable or movable along a travel path, and which are coupled and/or with a drive by a suspension element interrelating their motion. The suspension element is guided and/or driven by a traction sheave and/or a drive shaft and/or a deflecting pulley. The suspension element is sheathed and/or belt-type, with a first layer made of a first plasticizable and/or elastomeric material, containing a first exterior surface, and with at least one tension member—rope-type, tissue-type, or comprising a multitude of partial elements—that is embedded in the first layer of the suspension element. A manufacturing procedure for one of the suspension elements is provided. | 06-03-2010 |
| 20100140022 | ELEVATOR BELT, METHOD FOR PRODUCING SUCH AN ELEVATOR BELT, AND ELEVATOR SYSTEM HAVING SUCH A BELT - An elevator belt comprising a belt body made of a first material, a reinforcement arrangement having at least one reinforcement provided on the belt body, and a tube arrangement made of a second material having at least one tube, the at least one reinforcement of the reinforcement arrangement being provided in a tube of the tube arrangement. | 06-10-2010 |
| 20110088981 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PRODUCING A SUPPORT BELT FOR AN ELEVATOR INSTALLATION - A process for producing a support belt for an elevator system includes steps of: placing at least one cable-shaped tension support in position; embedding the tension support in a first belt layer made from a first plasticizable material to produce a partial belt having a first outer surface and a surface which forms a connecting plane, wherein parts of the tension support project out of the connecting plane and at least parts of the projecting portion of the tension support are covered by the first plasticizable material; and integrally forming a second belt layer made from a second plasticizable material on the connecting surface of the partial belt and the projecting portions of the tension support so as to produce a support belt having the first outer surface on the side of the first belt layer and a second outer surface on the side of the second belt layer. | 04-21-2011 |
| 20110272215 | ECCENTRICALLY SUSPENDED ELEVATOR CAR - An elevator system has at least one elevator car and at least one counterweight which are displaced in opposing directions along at least one guide track in an elevator shaft by a supporting and driving apparatus that is guided by a drive pulley of a drive. The supporting and driving apparatus is fastened directly to the elevator car eccentrically with respect to a center of gravity of the elevator car so that a tilting or load moment results thereby, wherein the tilting or load moment can be compensated by a compensation device. | 11-10-2011 |
