Patent number: 9457989Abstract: An elevator cage is movable along at least two guide rails and the elevator cage is equipped with a braking system. The elevator braking device has a brake housing and a force store. The brake housing is mounted to be displaceable between a first position and a second position. The force store acts on the brake housing and pushes the brake housing in the direction of a second position. In addition, the elevator braking device includes an actuator which can act on the brake housing and keep the brake housing in a first position. The actuator in its first setting can hold the brake housing in the first position against the force of the force store. In a second setting the actuator enables pushing of the brake housing into the second position. A brake element is thereby brought into contact with the brake rail.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2012Date of Patent: October 4, 2016Assignee: Inventio AGInventors: Daniel Meierhans, Faruk Osmanbasic, Marcus Junig, Michael Geisshusler, Nicolas Gremaud, Josef A.

Patent number: 9457990Abstract: A safety brake device at a load receiving means of an elevator installation comprises brake equipment which co-operates with a guide rail of the load receiving means. The brake equipment includes a cam disc, which is rotatable about a cam disc axis and which for activation of the safety brake device is set into a rotation through an activation rotational angle, wherein the cam disc is so designed that the cam disc as a consequence of rotation through the activation rotational angle comes into contact with the guide rail, whereby the guide rail moving relative to the safety brake device when the load receiving means is travelling rotates the cam disc into a position in which the brake equipment and thus the safety brake device produce an intended braking action relative to the guide rail.Type: GrantFiled: March 20, 2013Date of Patent: October 4, 2016Assignee: Inventio AGInventors: Faruk Osmanbasic, Miriam Heini, Quirin Kollros, Simon Barmettler

Patent number: 9273739Abstract: A brake system of an elevator, an escalator or a moving walkway includes a brake device with at least one brake shoe. The brake shoe has an effective surface which during brake use is pressed against a friction surface, which is moving or movable relative to the effective surface, of a counter-member. The brake system also includes a feed device which is supplied by a fluid source. A fluid can be fed between the effective surface of the brake shoe and the friction surface, which faces it, by means of the feed device. The friction between the effective surface and the friction surface can be influenced by the feed of the fluid.Type: GrantFiled: February 15, 2013Date of Patent: March 1, 2016Assignee: Inventio AGInventors: Daniel Meierhans, Faruk Osmanbasic, Julian Stahli, Kurt Infanger, Roland Rothenfluh

Patent number: 9206015Abstract: In an elevator installation an elevator cage is arranged to be movable along guide rails and the elevator cage is equipped with a brake system possibly with two safety brakes. The safety device is activated by way of control devices which can trigger the safety device from critical or non-critical events. The control devices further include a function for automatic resetting of the safety brake when an event, which is evaluated as non-critical, is indicated as a reason for triggering the safety brake. Resetting of the safety brake takes place through execution of pre-defined resetting steps of the elevator cage.Type: GrantFiled: November 28, 2012Date of Patent: December 8, 2015Assignee: Inventio AGInventors: Faruk Osmanbasic, Nicolas Gremaud, Michael Geisshusler

Publication number: 20150329324Abstract: In an elevator installation an elevator cage is movable along at least two guide rails and the elevator cage is equipped with a braking system. An elevator braking device includes a brake element, a force store, which is constructed to press the brake element against the brake surface, and an actuator, which can act on the brake element. A method of operating the braking device includes the actuator pressing, in a first operational setting, the brake element against the force of the force store away from the brake surface or to hold it at a spacing therefrom, and the actuator freeing, in a second operational setting, the brake element and allowing the force store to press the brake element against the brake surface.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 24, 2015Publication date: November 19, 2015Inventors: Daniel Meierhans, Faruk Osmanbasic, Marcus Junig, Michael Geisshüsler, Nicolas Gremaud, Josef A.

Publication number: 20150329322Abstract: A speed limiter for an elevator installation includes a stand, a wheel rotatably mounted on the stand and a non-circularly extending guide surface rotatable with the wheel. A pendulum, which is pivotable relative to the stand, with a pendulum wheel bearing against the guide surface is provided. In addition, a restraining device is provided, which loads the pendulum wheel at least indirectly with a restraining force against the guide surface. A switching vane connected with the pendulum comes into engagement with a blocking dog, which dog is connected at least indirectly with the wheel, when the pendulum is pivoted out to a certain extent in which the pendulum wheel lifts off the guide surface. In addition, an actuating device that triggers the engagement between the switching vane and the blocking dog is provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 6, 2013Publication date: November 19, 2015Inventors: Faruk Osmanbasic, Daniel Meierhans

Publication number: 20150329323Abstract: A brake device for an elevator system with a travel body movable in an elevator shaft along a guide and/or brake rail brakes and retains the travel body on the rail as required. The brake device includes a control plate receiving a brake body and for positioning the brake body relative to the rail. The brake body has first and second brake elements pivoted about a common axis. The first brake element is for braking and retaining purposes when the travel body is moving along the rail in an upward direction, and the second brake element is for braking and retaining purposes when the travel body is moving along the rail in a downward direction.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 15, 2013Publication date: November 19, 2015Inventors: Faruk Osmanbasic, Philipp Müller, Luca Gürber, Benedikt Rieser, Daniel Meierhans, Michael Geisshusler

Publication number: 20150298937Abstract: A safety brake for an elevator system having at least one traveling body movable in an elevator shaft along a guide rail and/or a brake rail. The safety brake is suitable for braking and retaining the traveling body on the guide and/or brake rail as required. The safety brake includes a control plate for receiving a brake body and for positioning the brake body relative to the guide and/or brake rail. The brake body is designed in at least two pieces and includes a first brake element and a second brake element. The first brake element is solely for braking and retaining purposes when the traveling body is moving along the guide and/or brake rail in an upward direction, and the second brake element is solely for braking and retaining purposes when the traveling body is moving along the guide and/or the brake rail in a downward direction.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 15, 2013Publication date: October 22, 2015Applicant: Inventio AGInventors: Benedikt Rieser, Daniel Meierhans, Faruk Osmanbasic, Michael Geisshüsler
