Abstract: An elevator installation includes an elevator cage with a support construction carrying the elevator cage, wherein the support construction has two beams. Mounted on each beam is a positioning arrangement on which a sensor is positioned, which is part of a load measuring device, wherein the positioning arrangements have material structures. The sensors detect a change in spacing of the material structures from one another, wherein this change in spacing is caused by a change in loading of the elevator cage. Signals of the sensors are processed in an evaluating unit and a signal representing the loading is used in an elevator control.

Abstract: A support frame has at one or more lower cage corners a respective support, at which at least one damping element is arranged. The support has a U-shaped cross-section and can be inserted into a beam with C-shaped cross-section. The elevator cage is mounted on the damping elements, which can keep oscillations and vibrations away from the elevator cage. Near the inserted support, a device can be provided for raising the elevator cage if the support or at least one damping element has to be replaced.
