 |  |  | Waiter: Encyclopedia II - Elevator - HistoryElevators began as simple rope or chain hoists. An elevator is essentially a platform that is either pulled or pushed up by a mechanical means. A modern day elevator consists of a cab (also called a "cage" or "car") mounted on a platform within an enclosed space called a shaft or more correctly a "hoistway". In the past elevator drive mechanisms were powered by steam and water hydraulic pistons.
In a "traction" elevator, cars are pulled up by means of rolling steel ropes over a deeply grooved pulley, commonly called a sheave in the in ...

 |  |  | Waiter: Encyclopedia II - Elevator - Modern elevator constructionToday, elevators are built under strict supervision of the Building Codes. Model Codes which are the standard in most US and Canadian jurisdictions require compliance with the American Society of Mechanical Engineers' standards for the installation, maintenance, and inspection of elevators. In addition other related standards are likely required to be complied with as specified by Local Authorities Having Jurisdiction.
Elevators are generally sold in prepackaged components which are inherently non-proprietary. All of the four major ma ...

 |  |  | Waiter: Encyclopedia II - Elevator - Elevator safetyElevators are extremely safe. Their safety record, that of moving millions of passengers every day, without incident, is unsurpassed by any other vehicle system. Recently, however, hydraulic elevators built prior to a code change in 1972 have been found to be subject to possible catastrophic failure. The code had previously required only single-bottom hydraulic cylinders; in the event of a breach of the cylinder, an uncontrolled fall of the elevator might result. This concern is reflected in the ASME A17.1 Maintenance of Hydraulic elevators ...

 |  |  | Waiter: Encyclopedia II - Elevator - Uses of elevators
Elevator - Passenger service.
A passenger elevator is designed to carry people and small packages.
Elevator - Passenger elevator capacity.
Passenger elevators capacity is related to the available floor space. Generally passenger elevators are available in typical capacities from 1,500 to 5,000 lb (680 to 2,300 kg) in 500 lb (230 kg) increments. Generally passenger elevators in buildings four stories or less are hydraulic. In buildings up to ten stories, electric elevators are likely to have speeds up to 300 ft/min (1.5 m/s), and above ten stories speeds begin at 500 ft/ ...

 |  |  | Waiter: Encyclopedia II - Elevator - Controlling elevators
Elevator - General controls.
A typical modern passenger elevator will have:
Call buttons to choose a floor. Some of these may be key switches (to control access). In some elevators, certain floors are inaccessible unless one swipes a security card or enters a passcode (or both).
Door open and door close buttons to instruct the elevator to close immediately or remain open longer. In some elevators, holding the door open for too long will trigger an audible alarm (This alarm migh ...

 |  |  | Waiter: Encyclopedia II - Elevator - Types of elevator hoist mechanismsIn general, there are three means of moving an elevator:
Elevator - Traction elevators.
Geared and gearless traction elevators
Geared Traction machines are driven by AC or DC electric motors. Geared machines use worm gears to mechanically control movement of elevator cars by "rolling" steel hoist ropes over a drive sheave which is attached to a gearbox driven by a high speed motor. These machines are generally the best option for basement or overhead traction use for speeds up to ...
