An embedded safety elevator includes a van body, a motor, a battery, a driving wheel, a transmission rod, an embedded elevating device, and an inwardly concave spiral guide rail. The embedded elevating device is embedded in the guide rail and can move up and down along the guide rail; the embedded elevating device is fixed on the van body to drive the van body to move up and down, the motor and the battery are mounted on the van body and are connected with the driving wheel, the driving wheel is connected with the transmission rod, and the transmission rod is further connected with the embedded elevating device. The motor is started to drive the driving wheel to rotate, the driving wheel drives the transmission rod to rotate, the transmission rod transmits the power to the embedded elevating device for driving the embedded elevating device to spirally elevate.

An elevator system sound reducing assembly includes an elevator car moveably disposed in an elevator shaft. Also included is a counterweight moveably disposed in the elevator shaft, the counterweight operatively coupled to and guided along a counterweight frame. Further included is a barrier located at a height of the elevator shaft that corresponds to passage of the elevator car and the counterweight relative to each other, the barrier disposed between the counterweight and the elevator car upon passage of the elevator car and the counterweight.

A suspension arrangement and guide shoe arrangement of an elevator, which arrangement comprises at least an elevator car and at least two compensating weights, which are for their part connected to support the elevator car by the aid of at least two suspension members, such as by the aid of ropes or belts, and also by the aid of diverting pulleys, and a hoisting machine provided with at least one traction sheave or corresponding, as well as at least two traction members, such as belts, ropes or chains, separate from the suspension members, which traction members are configured to transmit the rotational movement of the traction sheave into movement of the elevator car and of the compensating weights. There are at least four guide rails of the elevator car and they are fitted into an elevator hoistway symmetrically to each other in relation to the elevator car.

An elevator system (1) for transporting goods and/or passengers. The elevator system (1) includes an elevator car (2), a counterweight (3) being motion coupled with the elevator car (2), and several guide rails (4a, 4b, 4c). The guide rails (4a, 4b, 4c) run parallel to each other and guide the elevator car (2) and the counterweight (3) during their up and down movement. In total three guide rails (4a, 4b, 4c) are provided which are distanced from each other and at least one of these guide rails (4a, 4b, 4c) has a first guiding portion (6) receiving the elevator car (2) and a second guiding portion (7) receiving the counterweight (3).

The present disclosure relates to an elevator arrangement exhibiting at least one cabin and at least one drive unit, wherein the at least one cabin is coupled with the drive unit by traction member interacting with the drive unit in a drive zone, wherein the cabin is guided by cabin guide rails arranged eccentrically according to a horizontal direction/axis with respect to a lift shaft centre line; wherein the drive unit's drive zone is arranged eccentrically with respect to the lift shaft centre line, wherein the cabin guide rail's eccentricity is opposite the drive zone's eccentricity. The eccentricity of the drive zone is at least a predefined/predefinable factor of the eccentricity of the cabin guide rail(s). Such configuration also allows for favourable arrangement of both the cabin guide rail(s) and the drive unit in context with emergency stop situations.
