The present invention relates to a horizontally movable vertical shaft rope guide and a regulating method thereof which are suitable for guiding of hoisting containers in vertical shafts. The vertical shaft rope guide comprises a hoisting rope, and two hoisting containers suspended from the tail ends of the hoisting rope, wherein, cage guide ropes are led through guide cage lugs arranged on the two sides respectively, a tensioner arranged on the ground at the shaft top is connected to the upper end of each cage guide rope, and a connector arranged under a steel slot at the shaft bottom is connected to the lower end of each cage guide rope; a hydraulic cylinder is connected at the other side of each tensioner and the corresponding connector, and the hydraulic cylinder is connected to the tensioner or connector. During hoisting in the vertical shaft, the hydraulic cylinders are controlled to act in advance, to push the tensioners or connectors to move towards the center between the two hoisting containers, so that the cage guide ropes led through the guide cage lugs on the two sides of the hoisting containers get close to each other at the same time and wrap the hoisting container; thus, the horizontal displacement of the hoisting containers is restrained, and the impact of air flow on the two hoisting containers is minimized when the two hoisting containers meet.

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 for fixing a rail bracket for mounting a guide rail on a shaft wall of an elevator shaft of an elevator system includes applying an adhesive layer between a support surface of the rail bracket and a final fixing region of the shaft wall in the fixed state of the rail bracket. The rail bracket is thus adhered to the shaft wall, and the rail bracket can also be additionally fixed to the shaft wall by at least one fixing element such as a nail.

A shaft sinking apparatus for sinking a concrete shaft in a pit includes at least one first steel beam disposed to span the concrete shaft, two second steel beams disposed on the first steel beam, at least two tightening units configured to force the second steel beams into abutment against the first steel beam, and at least two jack members provided among the first and second steel beams. When each of the jack members is actuated, the first steel beam is driven by the jack members to move downwardly away from the second steel beams to thereby force a lower surrounding edge of the concrete shaft to sink into a bottom surface of the pit.
