The passenger elevator is a very important facility and equipment in the supporting construction of various properties, and it plays an increasingly important role in the lives of owners and residents. In recent years, the frequent use of elevators and the increase of various problems in management have caused elevator accidents to occur frequently. This has also sounded the alarm for elevator manufacturers, elevator maintainers and elevator daily managers. So from those aspects should we pay attention to and prevent the occurrence of elevator accidents?
As an indispensable means of transportation in high-rise buildings, elevators have attracted more and more attention to their equipment stability and safety. For high-rise buildings, the configuration and selection of elevators are directly related to whether the entire building structure is reasonably used. When selecting elevators for high-rise buildings, what aspects should be considered to meet the actual needs of high-rise buildings?
1. Speed. High-rise buildings often reach 200 meters, 300 meters or more in height. Choosing high-speed elevators is conducive to quickly transporting people during certain peak hours. For example, a direct sightseeing elevator with a speed of 8 m/s can quickly send passengers to the 72nd floor (the actual floor 59). Basically, it takes more than 40 seconds to reach the desired floor, even if there are many visitors. It will delay passengers' time. For example, the fire-fighting elevator has a speed of 7 m/s, which can ensure that firefighters can reach any floor from the negative 4th floor within 2 minutes, which provides very favorable conditions for fire fighting. Passenger elevators generally take the elevator to reach the floor from the first floor, and it is more appropriate to control it within 5 minutes.
2. The size and number of elevators. The size of the elevator car and the number of elevators need to be matched reasonably. Using elevators with large cars (that is, passenger elevators with a large load) can reduce the number of elevators and save building area and elevator costs, but the average interval time increases and maintenance is inconvenient; while the number of elevators is small but the number of elevators Although many elevators occupy a lot of building area and the cost of elevators is high, the transportation capacity is greatly improved, the average interval time is shortened, and elevator maintenance will not affect the normal use of passengers. It is recommended to choose an elevator with a load capacity of 1 ton, and more elevators are better. In general office buildings, the number of elevators required for every 100 people is between 0.3 and 0.5, and 0.5 is better.
3. Elevators for different purposes have different requirements. Passenger elevators require speed and quantity, but for freight elevators, we have found in our operations that the frequency of use of freight elevators far exceeds that of passenger elevators. It is not only used by property management personnel for cleaning, inspection, garbage collection, etc. during the day. It is used for moving or transporting materials at night. The quality and management of freight elevators are also very important. For the choice of freight elevators, you must choose the first-line brand in the market, which has a good reputation, durability and good quality.
4. After-sales service. It may only take one or two years to construct a building, but it takes decades to use the building, and the elevator has to be used for a long period of time. The elevator maintenance work has been closely related to the property management work since the building is delivered. Having an elevator maintenance unit with services that satisfy the owners will bring great benefits to the property management work.
In the daily management process, it is necessary to do a good job in the promotion and management of the use of elevators in a civilized and standardized manner, especially during the delivery and decoration period, strengthen the management of the decoration team, and do a good job in daily elevator safety inspections; for the maintenance work of the maintenance unit, maintenance should be done To confirm the work, choose a high-quality maintenance unit; for old elevators, a budget for elevator maintenance should be made, and parts that exceed the service life should be replaced in time.
