Abstract: Cabin assembly (28) for an elevator system (15), the cabin assembly (28) comprising a cabin (10) and a chassis (12) configured to rotationally support the cabin (10), wherein the cabin (10) is injection moulded.

Abstract: Arrangement (10) for handling carriages (12) in an elevator system (42), the arrangement (10) comprising at least one carriage (12); a storage area (14) adjacent to an operational path (20) of the elevator system (42) for storage, service and/or maintenance of the at least one carriage (12); and a transfer mechanism (16) for transferring the carriage (12) between an operational position (24) along the operational path (20) and at least one storage position (26) within the storage area (14).

Abstract: Cabin assembly (10) for an elevator system, the cabin assembly (10) comprises a cabin (12), a chassis (14) configured to rotationally support the cabin (12) about a cabin axis (16) extending through the cabin (12), a circular thrust profile (18) arranged on the cabin (12) substantially concentric to the cabin axis (16), and a drive member (68) configured to engage the thrust profile (18) to rotate the cabin (12) about the cabin axis (16).

Abstract: The disclosure is related to systems and methods regarding transit and movement of people. The Articulated Funiculator is a continuous and connected system of trains that moves people in mass. The trains lie horizontal at specific floor levels (designated as stations) in tall buildings or underground levels (designated as stations) in mining operations and underground subway stations. The Articulated Funiculator transitions from horizontal alignments at the stations to vertical, slanted or curved alignments between the stations, albeit the passengers remain horizontal in a standing position. The Articulated Funiculator captures the energy from the braking, dynamic braking’ of the trains and stores it. The stored energy is then used to accelerate the Articulated Funiculator. This re-use of energy makes the Articulated Funiculator sustainable.

Abstract: Structural frame for supporting at least one slanted section of a high-rise building, the slanted section comprising a perimeter and plurality of floors, wherein the structural frame is arranged at the perimeter of the slanted section; the structural frame closes the perimeter of the slanted section; and at least 85% of the loads of the floors in the slanted section are transferred to the structural frame at the perimeter of the slanted section. A high-rise building comprising at least one slanted section and a support frame for supporting the at least one slanted section is also provided.

Abstract: Support structure (10) for supporting a carriage (14) on a track (12) of an elevator system, where the support structure (10) comprises a track coupling arrangement (16) for movement along the track (12), a carriage support member (30) configured to rotatably support the carriage (14) for rotation about a pitch axis (32), and a linkage mechanism (24) connected between the carriage support member (30) and the track coupling arrangement (16), wherein the linkage mechanism (24) is configured such that the support structure (10) can be moved between an expanded state and a collapsed state, where the pitch axis (32) is closer to the track (12) in the collapsed state than in the expanded state.
