The invention relates to a slipform apparatus (12, 14, 16) and method (50) of operating a slipform apparatus for constructing a primary slipform structure (22) from one side thereof. The slipform apparatus comprising a platform (12) having a plurality of work levels (28, 30, 32), and a lift device having at least one cable (14). The platform (12) is suitable for suspending from above by said cable (14) and the lift device is operable to raise or lower the platform (12). The plurality of work levels (28, 30, 32) are provided around a perimeter of the platform (12) and surround a central space (33) through the plurality of work levels (28, 30, 32). The method includes suspending the platform (12) from above using the lift device (14, 16), performing a rebar installation operation comprising raising the platform (12) using the lift device (14, 16) and installing at least one rebar cage (18, 20), using the lift device (14, 16) to lower the platform (12) to abase of the at least one rebar cage (18, 20), and performing a concrete slipform operation of the at least one rebar cage (18, 20) comprising raising the platform using the lift device (14, 16).

The present invention relates to a working system, including at least one fastened rope node, at least one mobile rope node, and at least one suspended rope node. The three nodes are connected by using a rope, the fastened rope node is fastened to a surface of a building, the suspended rope node includes at least one working apparatus, and the working apparatus works on a side facade of the building. The mobile rope node can move on the building and change a suspension position of the suspended rope node. In the present invention, safety of a facade working robot is improved, and a working scope is expanded.

The invention relates to a construction time elevator arrangement comprising a hoistway; a protection deck mounted within the hoistway for protecting the portion of the hoistway below it from falling objects; the protection deck comprising a roof member extending diagonally across the hoistway and covering the hoistway such that it blocks objects and/or water from falling into the hoistway below it; and a cross member extending in horizontal direction across the hoistway below the roof member. The cross member is pivotally connected with the roof member, the protection deck being collapsible into a transport state by pivoting the cross member and the roof member towards each other. The invention relates to a method implementing the construction time elevator arrangement.

A lifting equipment is provided. The lifting equipment may include a working assembly, a safety assembly, and a shaft assembly. The working assembly may include a working fastener. The working fastener may be spirally connected to the shaft assembly. When the shaft assembly rotates the working fastener may move along the shaft assembly. The safety assembly may comprise a limiting component. The limiting component may be connected to the working fastener. A portion of the safety assembly may be in located a space between the limiting component and the working assembly.

A master hoisting platform, comprising: an outer frame removably installable inside a floor of a multi-floor building under construction; and an inner frame slidable in the outer frame between a retracted position inside the floor and an extended position outside the floor; wherein the inner frame comprises a framework structure to mount a hoist comprising a winch positioned rearwardly above the inner frame, and a sheave positioned forwardly above the inner frame.

An apparatus (1) for movement along a tower structure (11) is disclosed, the apparatus (1) being configured to be arranged at least partly circumferentially around the tower structure (11). The apparatus (1) comprises a plurality of sliding rails (2) and a frame structure comprising a plurality of frame elements (3). Each frame element (3) is slidably connected to at least one of the sliding rails (2), and the frame elements (3) and the sliding rails (2) are interconnected to form a scissor structure. An upwardly directed lifting force applied, by means of a hoisting mechanism (8), at connecting points (10) at or near positions where the frame elements (3) are connected to the sliding rails (2), in combination with gravity working on the frame structure, causes the frame elements (3) to slide along the sliding rails (2), thereby causing the scissor structure to contract or expand to adjust a diameter of the frame structure to an outer diameter of a tower structure (11) having the apparatus (1) mounted thereon.
