The elevator bracket acts as foundation to install elevator rails and they are installed in the elevator well or pit. They are mostly used to restrain the elevator rail and connect it to the concrete wall of the elevator well or steel structure or even to correct the unevenness of its walls.
Proper installation of elevator rail brackets results in improving safety and cabin movement quality. Proper installation of elevator brackets limits cabin vibrance and facilitates the overall movement of the elevator. Therefore, to install elevator rails properly, they must be installed according to standards.
An elevator rail is installed on the walls of the well using a bracket. The movement speed, safety brakes, elevator capacity, size, and type of rails are among the factors that determine the type and size of brackets. Please note that for different rails, different types of brackets are used. The different types of brackets are discussed below:
The elevator bracket is made of the same material as an iron sheet, gutter, or angle. The brackets are manufactured in three standard dimensions:
T-5 brackets: T5 brackets are used for elevators with less than 8 persons capacity, and a maximum of 10 stops to direct counterweight.
T-9 brackets: T9 brackets are used for elevators with more than 8 persons capacity, to direct counterweight and cabin.
T-16 brackets: T16 brackets are used to direct cabins.
Considering the fact that brackets are applicable for different parts of elevator connections, therefore, different types and sizes are used for different parts of the elevator.
If you have a traction elevator, brackets made of sheets and bent into an angle are used. On the other hand, for counterweight rails, angle brackets are used. To fix elevator rails to the elevator well metal structure, different types of rail clips and brackets are used. Elevator rail clips are responsible for fixing and holding brackets in their place. As a result, these brackets are connected and fixed into their place using two cast iron rail clips and bolts.
Brackets are connected to the structure or walls of the well at a specific distance from the doors and each other. Normally, brackets must be placed a minimum of 1.5 meters and a maximum of 2.5 meters away from each other. Of course, their distance can vary considering the type of rails and elevator structure. Elevator experts must calculate this distance and install it accurately.
To install elevator brackets in Iran, we need to pay attention to the dimensions, types, and distances between the girders used in the elevator structure. Since in Iran, ironwork method is used, we need to act based on the provided plot for the elevator and receive help from an expert elevator installer.
Elevator companies that install and equip different types of elevators use their own brackets. This part is normally supplied by the elevator installer person or the company working in this field. Therefore, the building owner must trust an expert person or company to choose, buy, and install brackets. We should not overlook the fact that using high-quality parts such as brackets reduces the risk of using the elevator and improves the quality of movement greatly.
With respect to what was explained above, please contact a bracket manufacturer company or expert installer to inquire elevator bracket price.
