Types and working principles of elevators

Elevator types can be divided into the following categories:
Passenger elevator, an elevator designed to transport passengers, requires complete safety measures and certain interior decoration;
Cargo elevator, an elevator designed primarily for transporting goods, usually accompanied by people;
Medical elevators are elevators designed to transport related medical facilities. The cars are usually long and narrow;
Miscellaneous elevators, elevators designed for transporting books, documents, food, etc. in libraries, office buildings, and hotels;
Sightseeing elevator, an elevator with transparent car walls for passengers to sightsee;
Ship elevators, elevators used on ships;
Building construction elevators, elevators for building construction and maintenance.
Other types of elevators, in addition to the commonly used elevators mentioned above, there are also some special-purpose elevators, such as cold storage elevators, explosion-proof elevators, mine elevators, power station elevators, and firefighter elevators.
working principle
The two ends of the traction rope are connected to the car and the counterweight respectively, and are wound around the traction sheave and the guide wheel. The traction motor drives the traction sheave to rotate after changing speed through the reducer. The friction between the traction rope and the traction sheave generates traction. Realize the lifting movement of the car and counterweight.
Elevator function
Modern elevators are mainly composed of traction machines, guide rails, counterweight devices, safety devices, signal control systems, cars and hall doors. These parts are installed in the hoistway and machine room of the building respectively. They usually use friction transmission of steel wire ropes. The steel wire ropes go around the traction wheel, and the two ends are connected to the car and the balanced counterweight respectively.
Elevators are required to be safe and reliable, with high conveying efficiency, accurate stopping and comfortable rides, etc. The basic parameters of the elevator mainly include rated load capacity, number of passengers, rated speed, car outline size and shaft form, etc.
Elevator stamping parts play an important role in elevator manufacturing and are mainly used in the following aspects:
Connectors: They are used to connect different parts of the elevator like bolts, nuts and pins.
Guides: Used to guide and position the movement of elevator parts, such as bearing seats and guide rails.
Isolators: Used to isolate and protect elevator components such as gaskets and seals.
In addition, the characteristics of stamping parts include high production efficiency, high dimensional accuracy, complex shapes, good strength and rigidity, and high surface finish. These characteristics make stamping parts very suitable for a variety of applications in elevator manufacturing.
