Abstract: An electric motor for an elevator drive comprises a motor housing; a number of motor windings which are connected to at least one terminal; ribs or webs being arranged on the motor housing; and the at least one terminal is arranged between the ribs or webs.

Abstract: A method for monitoring a brake which is operated by a spring force and a device for monitoring the force, comprising the steps of taking into account a force which is required to load or bias at least one spring by means of the device for monitoring the force.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an electromotive part of an elevator drive, comprising a rotor (24) and a stator (10, 22), wherein windings of the stator and/or the rotor (24) are provided as single tooth windings. An electromotive part of an elevator drive, is provided as an internal rotor motor, and includes a rotor and a stator. Windings of the stator and/or the rotor are provided as single tooth windings, the windings are, at least in part, encapsulated, and the windings are provided as two-layer windings. A method for winding-up windings of an electromotive part of an elevator drive with two-layer windings, includes inserting the windings of individual phases as alternating upper and lower layers.

Abstract: Disclosed are an elevator drive, a clamping arrangement for an elevator machine, a braking mechanism for an elevator system, and a rotor fixture for an elevator machine. The inventive elevator drive is subdivided into a number of segments, to each of which a converter is assigned.

Abstract: An elevator, particularly a friction driven elevator, with a cage guided in an elevator shaft and with a driving motor with associated control cabinet. According to the invention, in case of need and to provide access to the driving motor and/or control cabinet, a closed power unit space is provided which can be temporarily set up in the elevator shaft, whereby the operation of the cage in both portions of the elevator shaft which are situated below or above the temporarily set up power unit space remains unaffected. In the region of the power unit disposed in the shaft, the control cabinet is disposed in the shaft alongside the path on which the cage travels and there is provided at least one plate which, in order to form a negotiable platform and/or a protective roof, can be moved into a horizontal position associated with the control cabinet. Advantageously, in normal operation of the elevator, the plate serves as a cover for the control cabinet and is rotatably articulated on the control cabinet.
