Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2004/024609
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
An elevator controller wherein main ropes (13) are locked to a cab (2) to raise the latter and entrained around a plurality of winches (9) disposed in spaced opposed relation to each other, so as to drive the cab (2) for rising and lowering movement, the controller being adapted to detect the tension in each main rope (13) in a stationary state prior to driving the cab (2) and to individually increase or decrease the output power from the corresponding winch (9) on the basis of the detected value, thereby raising or lowering the cab (2). Therefore, even if the load is imbalancedly placed on the cab (2) to cause the tensions in the main ropes (13) to differ from each other, the winches (9) drives the cab (2) with their respective corresponding output powers, so that there is no possibility of the cab (2) being inclined.
