ELEVATOR GUIDE RAIL MOUNTING ASSEMBLY

摘要

An elevator system includes a mounting device that facilitates more readily installing guide rails within a hoistway and supporting the elevator cab and counterweight on the same rails. A plurality of mounting devices are used along the length of the hoistway. Each mounting device includes a first mounting bracket that preferably is secured directly to a selected wall within the hoistway. A second mounting bracket is secured to the first mounting bracket. The position of the second mounting bracket relative to the first is selectively adjusted. The second mounting bracket includes support portions for supporting the guide rails within the hoistway. The support portions on the second bracket have a fixed distance between them to facilitate maintaining an accurate distance between the guide rails throughout the hoistway.
