The elevator is a necessary construction in the construction of modern cities today. The passenger elevator is a very common one. As the name suggests, it is an elevator specially used for passengers. Today, I will explain the driving method of the passenger elevator and the knowledge of the guidance system. Everyone is helpful.

There are generally three driving modes for passenger elevators:

1. Forced drive elevator-an elevator driven by a non-friction method suspended by a chain or wire rope.

2. Traction-driven elevator-an elevator whose hoisting rope is driven by friction with the driving wheel rope groove of the main machine.

3.Hydraulic elevator-an elevator driven by hydraulic pressure.

What is an elevator guidance system?

The guidance system is an important part of the passenger elevator operation system. The guidance system can limit the freedom of movement of the car and the counterweight during the operation of the elevator, keep the car and the counterweight in the lifting motion according to their respective guide rails, and avoid lateral Swing to ensure the smooth operation of the elevator car and counterweight.

Both the car guide and the counterweight guide are composed of guide rails, guide shoes and a guide rail frame. The guide rail frame is used as a support for the guide rail and is fixed on the hoistway wall; the guide shoes are installed on both sides of the car frame and the counterweight frame. The shoe lining of the guide shoe is matched with the working surface of the guide rail, so that an elevator under the traction of the traction rope, one side is the car, the other side is the counterweight, and moves up and down along the respective guide rails.
