Arrangement for monitoring the temperature of elevator brakes

摘要

Elevator brake (2) with a brake shoe (4, 6) and a brake lining (10, 12) attached thereto, at least one brake lining temperature sensor (10, 12) arranged in the brake shoe (4, 6), at least one ambient temperature sensor (22), and a brake monitoring circuit (14) that is connected to and receives information from the temperature sensors (10, 12, 22), characterized by the fact that the brake lining temperature sensor (10, 12) has a generally cylindrical shape and a temperature-sensitive front end, by the fact that the brake lining temperature sensor (10, 12) is arranged in a through hole (28) in the brake shoe (4, 6) in such a way that its temperature-sensitive front end is generally 7 level with the contact surface (26) between the brake shoe (4, 6) and the brake lining (10, 12), and by the fact that the brake lining temperature sensor (10, 12) is insulated from the inner wall of the through hole (28).
