Abstract: The invention also relates to a method for installing an elevator provided with a machine room and suspended by hoisting ropes (15) and moving along guide rails (2) during the construction stage of building. The elevator is provided with a hoisting device (17), by means of which the machine room (4), which is initially placed in the lower part of the elevator shaft (1), is lifted through one or more floor-to-floor distances at a time in the shaft in such manner that at least the vertical forces resulting from the lifting are transmitted to the bottom structures of the building substantially via the guide rails (2) already secured.

Abstract: A procedure and an apparatus for plumbing and installing the shaft equipment for an elevator uses a plumbing jig. The plumbing jig is mounted in the upper part of the elevator shaft from the top floor, plumb lines are attached to the plumbing jig from the top floor and, using the plumb lines attached to the plumbing jig, the shaft equipment is positioned, whereupon the shaft equipment is fixed in place. The apparatus includes supporting elements that can be fixed to the elevator shaft, a plumbing jig that can be attached to the supporting elements and mounted substantially from the top floor, and plumb lines that can be suspended from the plumbing jig and extend into the elevator shaft below the plumbing jig.

Abstract: A procedure and an apparatus for plumbing and installing the shaft equipment for an elevator uses a plumbing jig (22). The plumbing jig (22) is mounted in the upper part of the elevator shaft from the top floor (11), plumb lines (43) are attached to the plumbing jig from the top floor (11) and, using the plumb lines (43) attached to the plumbing jig (22), the shaft equipment (28) is positioned, whereupon the shaft equipment (28) is fixed in place. The apparatus includes supporting elements (41) that can be fixed to the elevator shaft, a plumbing jig (22) that can be attached to the supporting elements (41) and mounted substantially from the top floor (11), and plumb lines (43) that can be suspended from the plumbing jig (22) and extend into the elevator shaft (2) below the plumbing jig.

Abstract: The invention relates to a procedure and an apparatus for the installation of an elevator. According to the invention, at least one suspension element is fixed to the upper part of the elevator shaft, to which element is fitted a suspension device used to support shaft equipment during installation. The suspension device is mounted on the suspension element using a mounting tool from the top floor landing.

Abstract: The invention relates to a procedure and an apparatus for the installation of an elevator. According to the invention, at least one suspension element (16,17) is fixed to the upper part of the elevator shaft, to which element is fitted a suspension device (24) used to support shaft equipment during installation. The suspension device (24) is mounted on the suspension element (16,17) using a mounting tool (22) from the top floor landing (11).
