Well carcass for an elevator installation
The invention relates to a well carcass ( 102 ) for an elevator installation ( 103 ), which well carcass may be arranged so as to be free-standing and/or in an elevator well ( 100 ) and serves for receiving a load suspension means ( 200 ) which is moved upward and downward in the well carcass ( 102 ) with the aid of carrying means, in particular a traction device ( 208 ), via at least one drive shaft ( 204 ) connected to a drive motor ( 126 ) and mounted horizontally on the well carcass ( 102 ) or in the elevator well ( 100 ). The object on which the invention is based is to produce the well carcass and the associated elevator installation in a simple and cost-effective way, along with optimal space utilization for the load suspension means. The object is achieved, according to the invention, in that at least one drive shaft ( 204 ) extends approximately horizontally between two diagonally opposite corner regions ( 105 ) of the well carcass ( 102 ) and is connected indirectly or directly to opposite parts, in particular to longitudinal sides ( 109, 111, 113, 115 ), of the well carcass ( 102 ) or wall parts of the elevator well ( 100 ) and has in the region of each of its two ends a driving pulley ( 206 ) which moves the load suspension means ( 200 ) upward and downward in each case with the aid of a carrying means ( 208 ).
1. A well carcass for an elevator installation, which well carcass may be arranged so as to be free-standing and/or in an elevator well and serves for receiving a travel platform which is moved upward and downward in the well carcass with the aid of carrying means via at least one drive shaft connected to a drive motor and mounted horizontally on the well carcass or in the elevator well,
wherein at least one drive shaft extends diagonally and approximately horizontally between a first corner and a second corner diagonally opposite the first corner of the well carcass, and respective ends of the at least one drive shaft being connected indirectly or directly to opposite parts of the well carcass or wall parts of the elevator well and having in a region of each of its respective ends a driving pulley which moves the travel platform upward and downward in each case with the aid of the carrying means, and wherein the first corner and the second corner each comprises a free space framed by a first vertically running side of the well carcass, a second vertically running side of the well carcass, and an upright side element of the travel platform.
2. The well carcass as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein
the cross section of the well carcass and/or of the travel platform is of oval or polygonal design, and the carrying means assigned to the respective ends of the drive shaft run in the immediate vicinity of and parallel to at least vertically running longitudinal sides of the well carcass which form the first and second corners.
3. The well carcass as claimed in claim 2 ,
wherein
the cross section of the well carcass and/or of the travel platform is of oval design.
4. The well carcass as claimed in claim 2 ,
wherein
the cross section of the well carcass and/or of the travel platform is of square design.
5. The well carcass as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the at least one driveshaft is operatively connected to the drive motor, and
wherein the carrying means are connected to the drive pulleys at points positioned directly above the first and second corners.
6. The well carcass as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein
the drive motor has an output shaft, the axis of rotation of which is arranged approximately at right angles to an axis of rotation of the driveshaft of the carrying means.
7. The well carcass as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein
the upright side elements of the travel platform each stand upright in an end edge region and/or in a corner region of the travel platform and which are connected to the carrying means.
8. The well carcass as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein
the carrying means is arranged between upright side elements of the travel platform and longitudinal sides of the well carcass which form the free space of the first corner.
9. The well carcass as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein
the carrying means comprises a pulley block having one or more deflecting pulleys.
10. The well carcass as claimed in claim 9 ,
wherein
the deflecting pulleys have axes arranged one below the other approximately on a vertically running plane.
11. The well carcass as claimed in claim 9 ,
wherein
the pulley block further comprises chains, steel ropes or toothed belts, which are tensioned with the aid of a clamping and/or a tensioning device.
12. The well carcass as claimed in claim 9 ,
wherein
the pulley block has a step-up ratio of at least 1:1.
13. The well carcass as claimed in claim 9 ,
wherein
the pulley block comprises a toothed belt bent in only one direction on all the deflecting pulleys.
14. The well carcass as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein
the travel platform is guided in the well carcass with the aid of at least one guide arranged on the well carcass, the at least one guide being arranged at least one of the first corner and second corner of the well carcass and/or in the immediate vicinity of the carrying means.
15. The well carcass as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein
the drive motor, together with the driveshaft, is arranged in a wellhead of the well carcass or in a wellpit.
16. The well carcass as claimed claim 1 ,
wherein
the travel platform comprises upright frame parts arranged in at least one of the first corner and second corner of the travel platform in such a way that a free access opening is present on at least four sides.
17. The well carcass as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein
one or more access openings on the travel platform can be closed with the aid of car walls and/or doors.
18. The well carcass as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein
the well carcass is composed of at least two diagonally opposite vertically running stanchions, on which the carrying means, guide rails and at least one upper and one lower deflecting pulley are arranged indirectly or directly.
19. The well carcass as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein
the well carcass and/or the diagonally opposite vertically running stanchions and/or the cross member in the corners of the well carcass are/is connected indirectly or directly to at least one inner wall of the elevator well.
20. The well carcass as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein
the at least one guide is fastened directly and/or with the aid of a holder to the well carcass or to an inner wall of the elevator well.
