An elevator control device, including an rpm detector, a landing-plate detector, and a controller, in which the controller includes a first remaining-distance calculating unit, which is configured to calculate a remaining distance to a destination floor as a first remaining distance based on the rpm, a second remaining-distance calculating unit, which is configured to calculate an ideal remaining distance from the detection of the landing plate to stop at a destination floor as a second remaining distance, an expansion-and-contraction amount estimating unit, which is configured to estimate an expansion amount of a governor rope from a difference value between the first remaining distance and the second remaining distance, and an expansion-and-contraction amount correcting unit, which is configured to correct the first remaining distance by adding a correction value calculated based on the estimated expansion amount.

An elevator arrangement, comprising at least one rope connected with an elevator car; a rope wheel arrangement comprising at least one rope wheel around which the rope passes turning around an axis, which extends in width direction of the rope; and a rope position detector arranged to detect displacement of the rope over at least one limit position and to trigger one or more predetermined actions in response to detecting displacement of the rope over a limit position. The rope is arranged to pass around a rope wheel turning around an axis, which extends in width direction of the rope, and the rope position detector is arranged to detect displacement of the rope over a limit position in thickness direction of the rope at a detection point, and to trigger one or more predetermined actions in response to detecting displacement of the rope in its thickness direction over the limit position, said limit position being on the opposite side of the rope than said rope wheel.

A vertical lift system having a safety brake assembly (10) employing a pair of brakes attached to cables running vertically on each side of a guiderail (1). Each brake has a series of wedges (13, 14, and 15), including a braking wedge (14) that presses against the guiderail to brake downward motion of an elevator or lift basket upon an interruption in cable tension. A cable tension adjustment mechanism (3, 4 and 6) to equalize tension in the cables is also incorporated into the safety brake assembly. An electrical sensor (18) is also provided to disrupt power to the lift system upon slackening of a cable.

An elevator system consisting in a platform steel floor fixed to four bogeys guiding the descent or ascension of the platform onto the two steel H beam or steel linear motion track profiles. The elevator is operated by a remote or pad control transmitting signals with a wire or with a wireless frequency signals to a motorised mechanical engine or electric winch at the ground level of structure, if not being manually operated and controlled. The motorised mechanical engine or electric winch unrolls one or a set of normal operation cables to allow the descent of the elevator platform and the sliding o f t he bogeys along the lateral guiding tracks. The motorised mechanical engine or electric winch rolls the set of normal operation cables to allow the ascension of the elevator platform and the sliding of the bogeys along the lateral guiding tracks. The set of operating cables drives a fixed pulley on a driving steel shaft at the top of the structure or elsewhere on the elevator system. On the driving steel shaft is also there one or many steel drums or pulleys to allow unrolling and rolling of a second independent steel cable standing for a first emergency safety brake device activated by one or many inertia brakes which stops rotation on steel shaft at excessive speed rotation of steel shaft if a fracture or breaking happens on the set of operating cables and engage the free falling of the elevator platform. The set of safety cables is attached to steel hooks fixed to the shock-proof steel plate attached underneath the elevator platform by compression springs and guided by steel rods inserting steel bushings. The shock-proof safety steel plate is retained by two fixed steel cables attached to elevator platform and to a steel hook half ring or U-Bolt mounted on the shock-proof safety steel plate.

The second emergency safety brake device is engaged when the two spur gears collides together after the compression of the springs or of any other kind of shock absorber when the set of safety cables ask to stop the free felling of the shock-proof steel plate and because the two opposite spur gears are taking two different directions onto the steel gear track or gear rack with teeth and also having then two different rotation direction; one spur gear is going down and the other spur gear is stopping its rotation. When the emergency break is applied for the elevator to stop its free falling, the safety trap on elevator floor can be lifted manually and be blocked by engaging the retainer steel arm in the corner steel angle and sided steel plate to allow the person to evacuate by the ladder bars fixed on the structure and the ladder bar underneath safety trap.
