BRAKE DEVICE FOR ELEVATOR
First Claim
Patent Images
1. An elevator apparatus, comprising:
- a car and a balance weight suspended by a main rope;
a hoist that generates driving force for moving the car and the balance weight;
a movement detector that generates a signal corresponding to movement of the car;
a brake device that brakes the movement of the car in a state in which driving of the hoist is stopped; and
a brake control device that generates a target pattern concerning at least one of speed and acceleration of the car in a state in which the driving of the hoist is stopped and that controls braking force of the brake device based on the signal from the movement detector such that the movement of the car follows the target pattern.

Abstract
In an elevator device, movement of a car is braked by a brake device in a state in which driving of a hoist is stopped. While the drive of the hoist is stopped, braking force of the brake device is controlled by a brake control device based on a signal from a movement detector that generates a signal corresponding to movement of the car. The brake control device generates a target pattern for at least one of speed and acceleration of the car and controls braking force of the brake device such that the movement of the car follows the target pattern.
