Gearbox Elevator 10person

Gearbox Elevator

A gearbox elevator is an elevator that receives input power from the electric motor to the traction pulley through a gearbox. The core of the elevator is its motor, which is responsible for all the lifting and lowering operations of the cabin since the power needed to move the cabin is provided by the elevator motor. To use gearbox motors in this elevator system, a machine room is required, which is usually placed on the roof.

Like other types of elevators, gearbox elevators are manufactured and used with various capacities and technical specifications. The gearbox elevator system is an older generation elevator with easily accessible parts and more reasonable prices. Here, we review the specifications of a gearbox elevator that accommodates 10 people.

Parts of a Gearbox Elevator for 10 People

Gearbox elevators that accommodate 10 people have vital parts for the proper operation of the elevator. To install a 10-person gearbox elevator, parts with specific specifications must be used. Let’s examine some of these important parts together:

10-Person Gearbox Elevator Motor

The motors of gearbox elevators are one of the main components of the gearbox elevator system with different capacities. The electric motor, gearbox, electric brake, and gearbox housing are among the most important components of the gearbox motor. These motors come in different designs and operations, and the capacity for a 10-person elevator is defined as 750 kg in elevator standards. Therefore, the useful load of this elevator is 750 kg. Leave the choice of a 10-passenger gearbox elevator motor for buildings with fewer floors (i.e., fewer than 10 stops) to an elevator expert. Generally, for 10-person gearbox elevators, the following motor specifications are used:

• 7.3 kW power, 1 meter per second speed
• 11 kW power, 1.6 meters per second speed

Available and Valid Gearbox Motor Brands

The currently available brands for 10-person gearbox elevator motors include:

• Behran Elevator Motor
• Elco Iranian Motor
• IR10 Motor Coupling
• Italian Motor
• Eicher Motor
• Sassi Italian Motor
• Sassi Spanish Motor
• Montanari Italian Motor

Types of Gearbox Elevator Motors

• Single-speed motor
• Two-speed motor

Generally, in this motor, the gearbox plays the main role and transmits mechanical power from the generator to the consumer. In fact, the gearbox elevator motor, by converting mechanical energy into torque, moves the cabin between the floors of the building by rotating the traction sheave.

Important Note: When purchasing a single-speed elevator motor, note that this type of motor requires a part called an encoder for startup. Usually, the motor encoder is coupled with the motor at the factory or by the seller at the time of purchase.

Elevator Rails for 10 People

The elevator rail for 10 people is made of steel to withstand pressure, impact, and deflection. The rail’s task is to guide the balance weight and the cabin. The choice of brand and thickness depends on the building's height, the elevator's capacity, and the number of stops. They are designed and installed to prevent accidents and ensure passenger safety, preventing the elevator from derailing and avoiding potential slips. For smoother and better movement of a 10-person gearbox elevator with 4 to 8 stops, it is best to use T9-T5 elevator rails. For a 10-person gearbox elevator with 9 or more stops, T5-T16 rails should be used. Additionally, in elevators with a speed of 1.6 meters per second but 4 to 8 stops, the T16 section cabin rail gives the elevator better movement quality.

10-Person Elevator Doors

The elevator door includes two sets of doors: floor doors and cabin doors. More specifically, floor doors are categorized into manual or hinged doors and automatic doors. Elevator doors can also be categorized based on the direction of door opening into the following types:

• Sliding or telescopic elevator door
• Central elevator door
• Folding elevator door
• Simple or single-leaf hinged elevator door

Currently, automatic elevator doors are common in most construction projects in Mashhad and other cities. Firstly, the price difference between hinged and automatic doors justifies the purchase of automatic elevator doors for the employer. Secondly, automatic doors are more common and attractive in selling construction units and in the competitive market. Elevator doors are installed at the entrance of floors to the cabin, and experienced professionals should handle their installation and design. Otherwise, there will be many failures and potential life and financial damages for passengers. The size of the shaft is very important when choosing the elevator cabin door for a 10-passenger gearbox elevator. The following dimensions should be considered for installing a 10-person gearbox elevator door:

Elevator Shaft Dimensions for a 10-Person Gearbox Elevator Door

• Central door width of 90 cm: (200*170)
• Central door width of 90 cm: (170*210)

After installing the door frame, the dimensions of the doors can be determined.

10-Person Elevator Cabin

The elevator cabin is essentially a compartment and room in which we move between different floors. The cabin consists of various parts such as the cabin door, ceiling, walls, floor, control buttons, and other beautiful elements that can vary according to its capacity. To operate a 10-person elevator cabin, your elevator shaft dimensions must be at least 200x180 cm. A 10-person elevator cabin can carry up to 750 kg of passengers and goods and is built with a minimum area of 1.73 square meters and a maximum area of 2 square meters. Elevator cabins are classified based on their type, door type, and usage, which we described in detail in the "Elevator Cabin" article.

Price of a 10-Person Elevator

The price of an elevator is determined by various factors. The quality and brand of the parts used, the type of elevator, the height of the building, the number of stations, load capacity, building type, specific project requirements, currency market fluctuations, elevator part brands, etc., all influence the price of elevators. When inquiring about the price of your elevator project, be sure to contact an experienced and reliable company. The price of a 10-person gearbox elevator starts from 300 million Tomans, and this figure may change based on the aforementioned factors. Therefore, to inquire about the price of a 10-person gearbox elevator, it is best to contact Ooj Lift's sales experts.

Purchasing a 10-Person Gearbox Elevator

When purchasing an elevator, be sure to inquire from companies licensed to design and assemble elevators and escalators with a validity of at least one year. Only licensed companies can obtain standards and provide after-sales services. Lastly, when purchasing an elevator, the contractor company should visit the project's elevator shaft and provide the employer with important points such as door sizes, elevator structure implementation methods, etc.
