ARRANGEMENT AND A METHOD FOR TRANSPORTING MATERIAL IN AN ELEVATOR SHAFT

摘要

A material transport arrangement for transporting transportable material in an elevator shaft and a material transport method are disclosed. The arrangement includes a pair of elevator car guide rails and a hoisting system mounted in the elevator shaft above the height to which transportable material is to be transported, for providing a pulling force to move the transportable material. The arrangement includes a pair of lower auxiliary guide rails for guiding the movement of transportable material between a loading position and the pair of elevator car guide rails, a pair of upper auxiliary guide rails at a height above the pair of lower auxiliary guide rails for guiding the movement of transportable material between the pair of elevator car guide rails and an unloading position, and a guide configured to be moveable along the pair of lower auxiliary guide rails, the pair of elevator car guide rails and the pair of upper auxiliary guide rails, and being removably attachable to the hoisting system and to the transportable material to move the transportable material.
