A product of magnetic levitation technology applied to elevators. In short, it is to put the magnetic levitation train up to drive, but there are still a lot of technical problems to be solved. This technology is mainly through the combination of the use of magnets to attract and repel objects suspended in mid-air. Not like the old elevator need to rely on vertical rail traction lift, it removed the traditional elevator cable, traction machine, steel wire guide rail, counterweight, speed limiter, guide wheel, counterweight wheel and other complex mechanical equipment. The new magnetic levitation elevator is equipped with magnets in the car, which are adjusted with the electromagnetic coils on the electromagnetic guide rail (linear motor) through the interaction of magnetic force when moving, making the car and the guide rail “zero contact”. As there is no friction, the magnetic levitation elevator is very quiet and more comfortable when running, and it can also reach the extremely high speed that the traditional elevator cannot reach. This kind of elevator is suitable for building ladder, launching platform and space elevator and other vertical transportation equipments carrying people and goods.
This kind of elevator is very energy-saving. According to the principle of electromagnetic induction, it can utilize the electromagnetic guide rail to cut the magnetic line to recover the kinetic energy and potential energy of the car, which makes its energy consumption greatly reduced.
This kind of elevator is very flexible. The traditional elevator is limited by the complex cable transmission device so that it is not possible to run vertically and then run horizontally, while the elevator does not have the cable, counterweight limitations, only need to add a horizontal electromagnetic guide can make it run vertically and horizontally to transport the new. The advantage of this is that in an elevator shaft there can be more than one car running at the same time, when two cars meet, one of them can run horizontally to avoid. This saves space and increases the capacity of the elevator.
