A prefabricated modular stairwell and elevator shaft system is described. The system can include an end panel, a first side panel, a second elevator shaft panel, a second side panel, and a first elevator shaft panel. The prefabricated modular stairwell and elevator shaft system can also include stairwell components (including one or more treads, one or more landings, and one or more handrails), one or more counterweight rails, one or more counterweight brackets, a stairwell door, and a stairwell door frame.

A method for deploying a controller to an elevator system includes generating a request to at least one other controller for obtaining at least one parameter relating to a deployment of the controller to the elevator system, receiving a response, and in response to detection that the at least one parameter in the response comprises a set of operational parameters, initiating a configuration procedure, and in response to detection that the at least one parameter in the response does not comprise the set of operational parameters, deriving an identifier of the elevator system included as the at least one parameter in the response and generating a request including the identifier of the elevator system for obtaining the set of operational parameters. An elevator system is configured to perform the method.

An installation tool configured to install a machine of an elevator system, including a base section including two legs, each leg including a laterally extending gusset attached thereto. A clamp assembly is supported by the base section and includes a first bracket attached to and positioned over the two legs and a second bracket attached to and positioned over the gussets. A first tube is movably carried by the first bracket and a second tube is movably carried by the second bracket. The first and second tubes are movable in the brackets between a retracted position that positions the machine over the base section and an extended position that positions the machine in a cantilevered position adjacent the retracted position. Each of the first tube and the second tube includes a tube clip that is fixed in position thereon and a first rod is movably disposed in the first tube and a second rod is movably disposed in the second tube, each of the first and second rod including a rod clip sized and shaped to releasably retain the machine on the clamp assembly in cooperation with a respective tube clip.

A cageway connecting device and connecting method thereof is invented, the device includes a connecting cageway, an upper cannula, a lower cannula, two first steel angles, a fixed block, a pin boss and a fixed pin. The connecting cageway is set between the upper cageway and the lower cageway. The upper cannula is fixed in the connecting cageway. The lower cannula is fixed in the connecting cageway. The two first steel angles are fixed on the connecting cageway. The fixed block is fixed on the upper cannula. The pin boss is fixed on the lower cageway. The fixed pin is passed through the first pin bore and inserted into the second pin bore. The invention improve the accuracy of the initial installation of the cageway and facilitate the replacement of the cageway. The first cageway beam is determined and controllable.

A method of configuring an elevator system (1), includes positioning a wireless communication device (4, 4′) on or within an elevator car (2). When the elevator car (2) is in the vicinity of a landing floor (8a) of the elevator system (1), the wireless communication device (4, 4′) transmits data comprising a unique identification code, or part thereof (26, 44) to a landing fixture (10a, 12a, 14a, 16a, 18a) on the landing floor (8a). The landing fixture (10a, 12a, 14a, 16a, 18a) receives the data. The method further includes, based on the received data, the landing fixture (10a, 12a, 14a, 16a, 18a) storing the unique identification code (44).

This construction model data evaluation server is provided with: a construction model part detection unit which receives construction model data used in a client terminal and detects an elevator construction model part included in the construction model data; a properness determination unit which performs properness determination on the elevator construction model part; and an evaluation processing unit which transmits, to the client terminal, evaluation result data including an evaluation result obtained by evaluating the construction model data when a determination result of the properness determination and the construction model data are received.

The arrangement comprises a self-climbing installation platform comprising two consecutive decks, a machine room deck suspended from the installation platform and an elevator car suspended from the machine room deck. Each deck, the machine room deck and the car are supported movably with guide means on guide rails and locked and unlocked with locking means to the guide rails and/or to guide rail fixing means. Lifting means powered by a power source move the two decks in relation to each other. The installation platform climbs stepwise along the guide rails by alternatingly locking and unlocking the lower deck and the upper deck to the guide rails and/or to the guide rail fixing means and thereafter raising the unlocked deck.

Disclosed embodiments provide techniques and apparatus for installing an elevator. A support frame is assembled at the top of an elevator passage. The permanent elevator motor is installed in the support frame. The permanent motor is then used to hoist materials as needed to build out the elevator system. Once built, the permanent motor that is already installed and has had hours of usage to verify its operation, is used for movement of the elevator car for the completed elevator system.
