1.1 - OBJECT OF THE PROJECT.

The main objective is to study the installation and design of a

elevator, for a residential building of 8 floors (under 35m).
It is also intended to ensure the complete safety of users.
complying with all current regulations.
The most important objective is to obtain an elevator with the features
required and at low cost in order to obtain greater profits in the current market.

1.2- PROJECT DESCRIPTION.

The project is carried out at the request of the company CONSTRUCCIONES COSTA
DEL SOL, S.A with NIF: 52362879, based at Ramón Gómez street No. 2 28220.
Málaga.

The elevator we are going to install is of the electric type, without a machine room.
This type of elevators is mainly characterized by the constitution of its
traction system: a motor group, brake, reducer, and adherence pulley or drum
of rolling.

The capacity of the elevator will be 300 kg useful, for 4 people, with a
nominal speed of 0.7 m/s, has protection and monitoring systems
of the system.

 Project: "Installation of an elevator"

The main features of the elevator are the incorporation of a

permanent magnet synchronous motor controlled whose speed is controlled
through a frequency converter, dispensing with a quarter of
machines.
The shock absorbers will be placed in the pit, they will be of the type of
accumulation of energy, helical springs. PUFFER ACLA type.

The speed limiter will be of centrifugal type with Vn = 0.7 m/s and
VDisparo= 1 m/s, from the manufacturer GERVALL.

The parachute will deploy when the cabin exceeds the speed.
nominal, starting from a predetermined percentage according to the Equipment Regulation
Elevators. The chosen parachute will be of the progressive type in the cabin of the
DYNATECH manufacturer.

The profiles of the guides will be T-shaped, both for the guides and
for the counterweight, since they have good resistance to the
flexion, and a good grip for the parachute risers.
The conditions that the guides must meet are:

The sliding supports, used in the cabin and the counterweight will be of
sliding type, since they are the most suitable for speeds
nominals lower than 2 m/s.
The supports are made of steel with molybdenum disulfide coatings.
arranging on the contact surface with the guide of a low material
friction coefficient to reduce resistance to cabin movement and
counterweight.

The cabin will be completely enclosed by walls, floor, and ceiling of

continuous or filled surface, except for the opening. The walls, floor and ceiling
will be made of metallic materials or other materials of
equivalent mechanical resistance that is also non-combustible, and
maintain its mechanical resistance in case of fire, without producing gases or
humus.

Taking into account the previous conditions, we have chosen the EU6 cabin.
5 from the manufacturer RALOE.
The dimensions of the cabin will be determined based on the payload.
to transport and the maximum usable floor area of the cabin, according to EN 81.
Thus, the dimensions of the cabin will be as follows:

Width and Depth of Cabin (mm): A.C. 1,130 x F.C. 780 mm.
The cabin model will be L05 finished in laminate.

The framework will consist of two long beams, one upper

what is where the cabin pulley is placed and, a lower one that is through
