Belt-driven passenger elevator in building has endless driven cog belt simultaneously acting as carrier belt for passenger cabin

摘要

The passenger elevator has at least one endless driven cog belt (1.1) acting simultaneously as a carrier belt for at least one passenger cabin and passed around a pair of spaced cog wheels (1.6), one of which is coupled to a drive (1.14), e.g. an electric motor. The cog belt is made of an elastic plastics material with spring tension strands, with safety braking of the passenger cabin provided by an electric brake activated by a sensor associated with the driven cog belt.
