The invention relates to a method for constructing an elevator including installing an elevator car, a counterweight, guide rail lines, a hoisting machine in a first position, and a first hoisting roping, connecting the first hoisting roping to the elevator car and counterweight; and transporting the elevator car vertically in the hoistway; removing the hoisting machine from the first position and disconnecting the first hoisting roping from the elevator car and counterweight; installing the hoisting machine, in a higher second position, and a second roping, connecting the second hoisting roping to the elevator car and counterweight; and transporting the elevator car vertically in the hoistway while the hoisting machine is in the second position using the hoisting machine and the second hoisting roping.

Method for constructing an elevator, guide rail installation apparatus, guide rail installation arrangement and method for installing a guide rail of an elevator

A construction arrangement of an elevator including a hoistway; a protection deck mounted inside the hoistway for protecting the portion of the hoistway below it from falling objects; wherein the protection deck includes a cover extending across the hoistway covering the hoistway such that it blocks objects from falling into the hoistway below it; and a frame mounted on stationary structures of the hoistway; and a hoisting apparatus for hoisting construction material below the protective deck. The hoisting apparatus is supported by the protective deck, the hoisting apparatus includes a hoisting machine mounted on protection deck, and a flexible tension member movable with the hoisting machine.

Construction arrangement of an elevator

The installation platform comprises two decks and a support frame comprising horizontal support beams supporting a respective deck and vertical support beams. The installation platform has a width in a first horizontal direction between the guide rails, a depth in a second horizontal direction perpendicular to the first horizontal direction. The installation platform is guided movably via guide means on the guide rails. At least one of the width and the depth of the installation is adjustable in order to adjust the horizontal dimensions of the installation platform according to the horizontal dimensions of the shaft.

Installation platform for installing an elevator during construction of a building

The invention relates to a construction arrangement of an elevator, comprising a hoistway in a building, the hoistway comprising a hoistway opening, the opening delimited by lower and upper edge structures; a load in the hoistway lower than said opening; a hoisting arrangement for hoisting said load, said hoisting arrangement comprising a support structure higher than said load; a hoisting device; and flexible tension member connected to said load; the flexible tension member being movable with said hoisting device to hoist the load by a hoisting force. Said support structure comprises an anchoring beam structure comprising a lower end engaging the lower edge structure, and an upper end engaging the upper edge structure; and a support beam structure connected to the anchoring beam structure, protruding from the anchoring beam structure into the hoistway; said flexible tension member hanging in the hoistway supported by the support beam structure.
