20080207106 | Blower Controller For Elevator System - An elevator system includes a mode switch configured to select one of a plurality of operation modes based on a state of the elevator cage, and a blower controller configured to control a blower to adjust pressure inside an elevator cage according to the selected operation mode. | 08-28-2008 |
20080274684 | Indoor Air Pressure Management - A strategy for minimizing or avoiding the so-called stack effect within buildings ( | 11-06-2008 |
20100267322 | ELEVATOR AIR PRESSURE CONTROL DEVICE - It is an object to ease discomfort feeling caused by ear fullness for passengers of an elevator. An air pressure control device | 10-21-2010 |
20110171895 | ELEVATOR APPARATUS - An elevator apparatus includes an elevator car; an air blower including an air inlet and an air outlet; ducts each having one end individually connected to the elevator car, the air inlet and the air outlet; intake and exhaust air volume adjusting means having the other end of each of the ducts connected thereto, which adjusts an intake and exhaust volume of air in the elevator car by varying a volume of air that bypasses the car to flow from the air outlet to the air inlet of the air blower; and control means that controls the intake and exhaust air volume adjusting means, to adjust air pressure within the car to set air pressure. The elevator apparatus adjusts air pressure within the elevator car, even when there is a small differential pressure between the set air pressure within the car and an air pressure outside the car. | 07-14-2011 |
20120164928 | DEVICE FOR VENTILATING AN ELEVATOR CAGE - An elevator cage is movable in an elevator shaft, wherein a ventilating device is fastened to a cage outer surface, wherein this ventilating device forms at least one ventilation channel, wherein the at least one ventilation channel has at least one primary ventilation opening enabling an air exchange between the ventilation channel and the elevator shaft, wherein at least one of the cage outer surfaces has at least one secondary ventilation opening enabling an air exchange between a cage interior space and the at least one ventilation channel, with at least one element of insulating material, and wherein the at least one element substantially determines a path of the at least one ventilation channel. | 06-28-2012 |
20150044957 | Elevator Ventilation Fan Assembly - An elevator ventilation fan assembly for hazardous operating environments and comprising a fan disposed within an enclosure to be carried on an elevator cab roof. The fan may be suspended by a fan support framework from at least three non-co-linear suspension locations of the enclosure lid. The assembly may include a vibration isolation element disposed between the fan motor and the enclosure lid, a cover panel supported by a cover support framework on the enclosure lid, a fan guard screen carried by the enclosure lid, a fan motor junction box carried within the enclosure by the lid and accessible via a removable side panel of the enclosure, and/or a fan duct surrounding the fan. | 02-12-2015 |
20150056905 | OXYGEN SUPPLY ELEVATOR - Oxygen supply elevator which supplies oxygen to an internal space of the elevator or a separate oxygen mask provided in the elevator, thereby allowing a user to easily breathe and removing smoke or the like. The oxygen supply elevator includes: an oxygen containing unit which is provided in a facility mounting space formed on the elevator and contains oxygen at pressure higher than atmospheric pressure; an oxygen supply unit which is connected with the oxygen containing unit through at least one communication channel and supplies oxygen to an oxygen supply space in the elevator; a valve unit which is provided on the communication channel and adjusts a flow rate of oxygen discharged from the oxygen containing unit; and a control unit which is connected to the valve unit and adjusts whether to open or close the valve unit or an opening amount of the valve unit. | 02-26-2015 |
