The World's First Over 500 meters thermocline elevator

In August 2016,the world’s first over 500 meters Jump lift was officially put into use in the first high-rise building of Beijing.This project we called “Z15 Tower”.

The projects is located in Chaoyang district CBD core area Z15 plots,with a total construction area of 437 thousand square meters.It was 528 meters high with 108 floors and 7 floors underground.This building including the grade A offices, meeting, sightseeing and a variety of ancillary services functions, after the completion of the building will become the tallest building in Beijing.And it is expected to be completed in October 2018 and delivered to use.

The “Z15 Tower” project site construction workers can reach 3600 people,and all the personnel transport are rely on the construction elevator.While this elevator is far away from the capacity and speed requirement.During the working time, the workers can not get to work or leave the area on time, will greatly reduce the efficiency of construction.

Aiming at the problem of vertical transportation bottleneck in the process of global super high-rise project construction,the project find a new way to solve the problem,that is Jump lift elevator design.

Advance of the use of 4 duplex lift in the main construction stage (officially passenger lift), with the main construction elevator for mechanical and electrical, decoration materials and personnel transport.It is the first application of project construction process of high-rise building height over 500 meters of the jump elevator in the world service.

Application of jump elevator temporary fixed mobile machine room on top of the shaft,after the installation is completed, can be run in closed hoist way.Use the special elevator equipment,can transport the construction materials, equipment  and also workers,can effectively solve the problem of engineering capacity, improve the work efficiency of workers, and ensure the progress of the project schedule.

Use the elevator to avoid the use of ordinary construction elevator occupy the hoist-way of the formal passenger elevator and affect the future installation of the official lift installation.Also the traveling speed of jump lift is 3 times and the capacity is twice compare to the construction lift.Which greatly improve the efficiency of personnel transport in the construction stage,so that the construction progress can save a period of about 80 days compared with the general construction elevator.

Emergency elevator

Emergency elevator is also called fire lift,is a elevator equipment which is used for fire fighting and rescue and has certain function in the building fire.

Therefore, the fire elevator has a high fire protection requirements, the elevator design for fire prevention is very important.

Now in china,the true sense of the fire elevator is very rare made by the elevator manufacturers.Now the fire elevator we see is only the normal passenger elevator can return to the default base station or the evacuation layer function when with fire switch action.It can not take when in the event of fire.

●Fire elevator set purpose

Can lift for firefighters in use when in building fire.

As the GB 26465-2011 pointed out:The emergency elevator is not a rescue lift for passengers,so it is only controlled by fireman only.

At present, the conventional elevator specifications can meet the requirements, no need to re-design.

●Fire elevator basic requirement

The difference between villa elevator and home elevator

As a kind of passenger elevators,people may always confused with the home elevator and villa elevator.Or some will mixed the two types as one type.

The difference between villa elevator and home elevator:

Villa elevator in accordance with national standards should be more than 320KG and applicable to the installation of the villa.And the top height can be adapted to the general installation of the villa elevator.320KG or above the capacity must be accepted by National quality and Technical Supervision Department when finish the installation, and issue the certificate of use.

While the capacity for home elevator must be 200-280kgs.So it can not after acceptance by the relevant departments of the state.Besides,home elevator is normally for 2 or 3 floors,and villa elevator maybe more than 3 floors.To this end, the purchase needs to be based on the needs of the project or the family ,then select the different types.

Now in china,we sold villa elevators and also home elevators to the user.And generally known as the home elevator products, the weight is less than 300KG.

Villa elevator selection should pay attention to the following points:

1.The elevator manufacturer must have advanced technology

2.Capacity over 320kgs

3.Car decoration suitable for building

4.A humanized product

5.Safe products

6.The operating system can use IC card or fingerprint identification method

7.Noise does not exceed 52 DB

8.Power saving host

9.Small shaft size, and the construction is simple and convenient

10.Meet the country's latest standards

Home elevator selection should pay attention to the following points:

1.A humanized product(Car cabin is big enough to enter a wheelchair)

2.Conform to the architectural characteristics

3.The construction is simple and convenient
4.Car decoration is Home based, beautiful and generous

5.It is better to take the glass home elevators for indoor use.
6.Because the home elevator does not need the relevant departments to detect, So buyer should pay attention to quality assurance and safety assurance.

7.The user can consider some personalized decoration, which is more able to highlight the family personality.

Why should you invest in a home elevator

  Convenience and Safety

You can't imagine how much a home elevator will upgrade your life until you experience owning one. No more struggling up two flights of stairs at the end of a long day with bulky packages or luggage; no more feeling your way downstairs while carrying something so large you can't see where you're going. Residential home elevator  is not just for the elderly or disabled; they're perfect for any homeowner who is concerned about efficiency, convenience, and most of all, safety for the family.

Accessibility

If you are one of the many people with physical mobility challenges, you already know the value of elevators and similar accessibility devices in public facilities. Your own home should be one place you don't have to worry about moving around effortlessly, no matter where you want to go in your house, or how often. A residential elevator will give you maximum mobility with minimum effort throughout the levels of your home.

Building Costs

A home elevator pre-planned into your new house will enable you to build taller without worrying about long flights of stairs. It's commonly known that building upward is less expensive than building outward to achieve the same square footage. The savings on your foundation size and roof area will help to offset the cost of an elevator, plus pay maintenance dividends for years to come. You may find that the savings in the home design alone will more than offset the cost of the elevator installation.

Planning For The Long-Term

Perhaps there's a elderly relative who may one day have to move in with you, or a disabled friend who will need access your home. Maybe you're concerned about your own future challenges and want to make sure you can always live independently in your own house. Or, you might be thinking about home resale value for your heirs when the time comes. For any of these eventualities, a home elevator is the smart choice for the long-term. It increases the value and utility of your home, but most importantly, it increases your safety, enjoyment, and peace of mind for as long as you live there.

Adding an elevator to an existing building

Think you don't have space for a home elevator? You might be surprised. We have experience in finding ways to fit a home elevator in with even the most restrictive floor plan.Below is an animated example of a classic problem and solution. Here we have a townhouse with little interior space for an elevator. Since there's no footprint within the building, we create one outside it using an exterior shaft. Our company can make the elevator design as you like.Just visit our website for further reference.
