ELEVATOR

摘要

In an elevator apparatus, first and second driving machines are disposed horizontally above a car so as to overlap with the car in a vertical plane of projection. A first main rope is wound around a first drive sheave of the first driving machine. A second main rope is wound around a second drive sheave of the second driving machine. A first car return sheave for leading the first main rope to the car and a second car return sheave for leading the second main rope to the car are disposed above the car inside the hoistway. A first counterweight return sheave for leading the first main rope to the counterweight and a second counterweight return sheave for leading the second main rope to the counterweight are disposed above the counterweight inside the hoistway.
