1. Introduction and Structure


1.1 Brief introduction
Hydraulic elevator systems lift a car using a hydraulic ram, a fluid-driven piston mounted
inside a cylinder. The cylinder is connected to a fluid-pumping system (typically,
hydraulic systems like this use oil, but other incompressible fluids would also work). The
hydraulic system has three parts:
A tank (the fluid reservoir)
A pump, powered by an electric motor
A valve between the cylinder and the reservoir
The pump forces fluid from the tank into a pipe (hose) leading to the cylinder. When the
valve is opened, the pressurized fluid will take the path of least resistance and return to
the fluid reservoir. But when the valve is closed, the pressurized fluid has nowhere to go
except into the cylinder. As the fluid collects in the cylinder, it pushes the piston up,
lifting the elevator car.

To lower the car, the elevator control system sends a signal to the valve. The valve is
operated electrically by a basic solenoid switch (check out How Electromagnets Work for
information on solenoids). When the solenoid opens the valve, the fluid that has collected
in the cylinder can flow out into the fluid reservoir. The weight of the car and the cargo
pushes down on the piston, which drives the fluid into the reservoir. The car gradually
descends. To stop the car at a lower floor, the control system closes the valve again.

1.2 Structure
The main structure of a hydraulic elevator consists of three units, hydraulic power unit,
mechanical unit and electronic unit. Those units comprise of various components and
fixed to different areas. Detailed information about those components and devices is
shown below, separated by where they are installed.

1.2.1 Machine-room
1.2.1.1 Hydraulic power unit ---- the drive power unit that is installed in machine-room.
Main components of a hydraulic power unit include oil tank, hydraulic pump, motor,
control valve, etc. GUOTAI hydraulic power units work quietly, thanks to our advanced
sealing technology and imported oil tank.
1.2.1.2 Controller ---- cooperating with different control devices, controller controls
speed and all movements of an elevator, making sure it runs and stops correctly and
safely.
1.2.1.3 Pipe(hose) ---- connected to oil tank and cylinder. They transport hydraulic oil
between oil tank and cylinder, therefore, causing different movement of elevator.
1.2.2 Shaft
1.2.2.1 Guide rail
Normally, elevator cars run on guide rails, which are fixed to guide rail bracket. Guide
rails can keep elevator car from shaft wall to a fixed safety distance and support on board
load and weight of car when safety gear works.
1.2.2.2 Hydraulic Cylinder
Cylinder, on which elevator car is based, is installed in the shaft and connected to a
hydraulic pipe (hose). When the pipe (hose) transports hydraulic oil between cylinder
and oil tank, the cylinder rises or declines accordingly, therefore, making movements of
the car.
There are two ways to install the cylinder---- direct and indirect. Just as the name implies,
direct installation means the car is directly connected to the cylinder, while indirect
installation means steel rope and pulleys are installed on the top of the cylinder, working
together with the cylinder to move the car. The ratio of indirect installation is divided
into 1:2, 1:4 and 2:4.
1.2.2.3 Buffer
Being set under cantilever arm/car sling at the bottom of the shaft, buffer is one of the
elevator safety devices. It can bear the impact caused by the car when the car (10%
overloaded) falls down at the speed allowed by the speed governor.

1.2.2.4 Speed governor


Connected with the car through safety rope, speed governor monitor the cars moving
speed. When the speed passes standard safe speed, it takes measurements below.
a. Cut the control circuit through speed limit switch.
b. Make safety gear work by cramping safety rope.
1.2.2.5 Terminal switch
Terminal switches are installed to the 2 terminal stops (on the top and at the bottom). If
the elevator car passes safety landing zone when it is landing on the terminal stops, the
switch will cut the control circuit to stop the car.
1.2.3 Landing stops
1.2.3.1 Landing door
On every landing stop (floor), there is a landing door with electronic lock, which can be
only released when elevator car has landed on the floor. Series control system is
connected to every landing, making sure all the landing doors are closed before the
elevator car runs.
1.2.3.2 Landing operation penal (a.k.a. LOP )
LOPs with 1 (for terminal stops) or 2 buttons (other stops) are fixed to every landing
floor, beside the landing door. When a passenger pushes a button on the LOP, it sends a
signal to the elevator control system, making the elevator car move accordingly. A lock
system can be fixed on the LOP and then it can be locked when wanted.
1.2.3.3 Landing indicator
Dot matrix or LCD indicators are usually fixed above or beside (fixed on LOP) every
landing door. Landing indicators show passengers the car elevators current position and
moving direction.

1.2.4 Car & other devices


1.2.4.1 Car
Elevator car (a.k.a. cabin) is a huge box that takes passengers travel between different
floors in a building. It is connected to the piston on cylinder directly or through steel rope
and pulleys. It moves on guide rails that are fixed to the shaft wall and connected to the
car frame. An automatic car door with electronic sensor is fixed to the car. The car can
move only after the sensor detects that the car door is safely closed. The elevator will be
stopped when the sensor detects the car door is opened during the travel. On the top of
collective controlled elevator car door, a movable safety sensor or infrared-light curtain
is installed to protect passengers from being trapped or hurt by car door.
1.2.4.2 Safety gear
Safety gears are installed on both sides under the cantilever arm. When the elevator
moves over-speed, speed governor will cut control circuit, cramp safety rope and make
safety gears cramp guide rails, in order to stop the elevator. (1:1 in-ground cylinder
design does not have this type of devices.)
1.2.4.3 Trip valve
Trip valve is fixed to the oil entrance on the cylinder. It will seal hydraulic oil in the
cylinder and stop the elevator immediately if the elevator declines over-speed because
the hydraulic pipe (hose) burst.
1.2.4.4 Car operation penal (a.k.a. COP)
COP is embedded on the car wall. It is the main control penal that controls elevators
rising, declining, starting, stopping and other movements. There are also other
switches/buttons available for professional technicians on the COP, such as emergency
stop and low speed inspection switches.
1.2.4.5 In-car landing indicator
In-car landing indicator is embedded on the top of COP. It shows the elevators moving
direction and current travel floor.

1.2.4.6 Leveling device


Installed beside the top of car, leveling device can detect the magnets or magnet vanes
fixed in the shaft. It provides the control system with leveling signals, making sure that
the elevator stops/levels on every floor correctly.
