Elevator car mounting assembly.

摘要

An elevator car (10) is disposed in a frame (15) which moves on rails through an elevator hoistway. A pendulum mount is used to mount the car (10) in the frame (15) so that the car (10) is free to swing within the frame (15) in pendulum fashion. Both lateral and torsional swinging movement of the car (10) within the frame (15) are controlled. A combination spring/damper assembly interconnects the car (10) and the frame (15) to control such lateral movements of the car (10) whereby the car (10) is softly stabilized within the frame.
