Hydraulic Elevator Without A Machineroom

View page
US Patent:
6378660, Apr 30, 2002
Filed:
Dec 22, 1997
Appl. No.:
08/995507
Inventors:
Leandre Adifon - Farmington CT
Carlo Varisco - Cernusco sul Naviglio, IT
Assignee:
Otis Elevator Company - Farmington CT
International Classification:
B66B 100
US Classification:
187272, 187274, 187275, 187276
Abstract:
A hydraulic elevator system having a configuration without a machineroom is disclosed. The hydraulic elevator system includes a valve assembly that is separated and remotely located from the pump and fluid tank. This arrangement permits the valve assembly and an electronic controller to be located in a cabinet outside of the hoistway, and the other hydraulic components, such as a tank and pump, to be located in the hoistway.

Traction Elevator System Using Flexible, Flat Rope And A Permanent Magnet Machine

View page
US Patent:
6397974, Jun 4, 2002
Filed:
Oct 9, 1998
Appl. No.:
09/169415
Inventors:
Leandre Adifon - Farmington CT
Pedro S. Baranda - Farmington CT
Assignee:
Otis Elevator Company - Farmington CT
International Classification:
B66B 1108
US Classification:
187254, 187266, 254902, 310156, 310261
Abstract:
A traction elevator system includes a machine having a rotor including permanent magnets and a flat rope engaged with the machine. The flat rope includes one or more load-carrying members retained within a common sheath from a non-metallic material.

Elevator System Using Minimal Building Space

View page
US Patent:
6619433, Sep 16, 2003
Filed:
Jul 24, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/624705
Inventors:
Olivier Robert - Farmington CT
Leandre Adifon - Farmington CT
Assignee:
Otis Elevator Company - Farmington CT
International Classification:
B66B 1104
US Classification:
187251, 187254, 187262, 187266, 187258
Abstract:
An elevator system includes a hoistway having a vertically adjacent structural platform, i. e. , a roof slab or pit slab, that includes a recess, and a machine that fits within the recess. The vertically adjacent structural platform defines either the ceiling or floor of the hoistway. As a result of having the machine tucked into the recess in the hoistway, the machine is removed from the hoistway and the hoistway need not be expanded, either horizontally or vertically, to accommodate the machine.

Method Of Installing Elevator Rails

View page
US Patent:
6672013, Jan 6, 2004
Filed:
Nov 2, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/705077
Inventors:
Thomas E. Glassey - Plainville CT
Leandre Adifon - Farmington CT
Thomas Landry - Canton CT
Bruce Swaybill - Farmington CT
Richard Fargo - Plainville CT
Jim Rivera - Bristol CT
Bruce St. Pierre - Bristol CT
Assignee:
Otis Elevator Company - Farmington CT
International Classification:
B66B 900
US Classification:
52 30, 187406, 187408, 187411, 187900
Abstract:
An improved method for mounting elevator rails within a hoistway includes the initial step of securing support brackets to a pair of rails. The brackets, rails, a machine for driving a cab and a dead end hitch are then mounted within the hoistway. A cab may then be moved vertically within the hoistway and additional support brackets are placed at vertically spaced locations. The connection of the brackets and rails provides support to dissipate the loads which are transferred into the rail in such systems wherein the machine or the dead end hitch is fixed to a rail. Once the rails have been adequately supported by additional brackets, the brackets which are secured to the rails are removed from the rail. The brackets provide support, but are no longer fixed to the rails.

Single Wall Interface Traction Elevator

View page
US Patent:
6848543, Feb 1, 2005
Filed:
Nov 15, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/295629
Inventors:
Leandre Adifon - Farmington CT, US
Pedro Baranda - Alcabideche, PT
Marc Chevilliard - Gien, FR
Jean Marc Ferrary - Paris, FR
Ron Laliberte - Prospect CT, US
Pascal Rebillard - Gien, FR
Fernando Rico - Rueil Malmaison, FR
Armando Servia - Madrid, ES
Alberto Vecchiotti - Middletown CT, US
Assignee:
Otis Elevator Company - Farmington CT
International Classification:
B66B 1108
US Classification:
187254, 187264
Abstract:
An elevator system () includes a guide rail bracket () attached to a single hoistway wall (). Car guide rails () and counterweight guide rails () are fixed to the bracket (). The counterweight guide rails () are positioned in between the car guide rails () so that the counterweight () can translate therebetween. The elevator car () is supported by rope () and sheave () members coupled to a traction drive ().

Elevator Structure Mounting System Having Horizontal Member For Reducing Building Loads At Top Of Hoistway

View page
US Patent:
7150342, Dec 19, 2006
Filed:
Feb 3, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/497359
Inventors:
Leandre Adifon - Farmington CT, US
Richard N. Fargo - Plainville CT, US
Thomas E. Landry - Collinsville CT, US
James A. Rivera - Bristol CT, US
Bruce St. Pierre - Bristol CT, US
Bruce P. Swaybill - Farmington CT, US
Assignee:
Otis Elevator Company - Farmington CT
International Classification:
B66B 7/08
US Classification:
187411, 187404, 187406
Abstract:
A structural system for elevator assemblies includes a horizontal compression member positioned near the top of the elevator hoistway for reacting to inwardly directed tension loads and moment forces applied to the hoistway wall and connection components resulting from the elevator vertical load. The horizontal compression member includes a rigid member positioned in a compression state between mounting structures for elevator ropes and elevator machine components such that the compression member reacts and counters inwardly directed horizontal forces and resultant moment forces caused by a centralized, downward vertical load.

Elevator System Having Drive Motor Located Adjacent To Hoistway Door

View page
US Patent:
7299896, Nov 27, 2007
Filed:
Sep 29, 1998
Appl. No.:
09/163207

Assignee:
Otis Elevator Company - Farmington CT
International Classification:
B66B 11/08
US Classification:
187254, 187414
Abstract:
An elevator system includes a hoistway having a plurality of hoistway doors. An elevator car and counterweight are provided in the hoistway. A drive motor is drivingly coupled to the elevator car and counterweight, and is located adjacent to either the top or bottom portion of a hoistway door so as to eliminate the need to provide a machine room above the hoistway ceiling.

Low Overhead Machine Roomless Elevator Configuration

US Patent:
7428950, Sep 30, 2008
Filed:
Jun 12, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/560259
Inventors:
Fernando del Rio - Torrelodones, ES
Andres Monzon - Leganes, ES
Jose Canales - Madrid, ES
Julian Cabanas - Madrid, ES
Jose Caballero - Madrid, ES
Leandre Adifon - Farmington CT, US
Assignee:
Otis Elevator Company - Farmington CT
International Classification:
B66B 11/08
US Classification:
187254, 187277, 187414
Abstract:
A drive arrangement for an elevator car and a machine roomless elevator incorporates a machine () having a drive sheave () extending along an axis parallel to the axes of the deflection sheaves () associated with both the counter-weight () and the elevator car (). In this manner, the twisting which has occurred in the prior art is reduced or eliminated. The machine is mounted on a bedplate () between the guide rails. The elevator car is preferably cantilever mounted, and mounted on laterally outer surfaces of said guide rails. In this manner, the elevator car can travel vertically upwardly beyond the machine.
