A building site device includes a climbing formwork platform for the floor-by-floor production of concreting portions of a building core having at least one elevator shaft. An elevator system has an elevator machine platform vertically movable in the elevator shaft. In order to minimize the use of lifting cranes and the manual raising of supporting structures, the elevator machine platform can be moved jointly with the climbing formwork platform.

A mounting frame for displacing and fixing in a shaft includes a support component for support against a first shaft wall during displacement in the shaft and is arranged on a main frame so as to be at least partially movable in a fixing direction relative to the main frame. The support component can assume a fixing position and a displacement position, with no part of a support surface being spaced further outward in the fixing direction, i.e. toward the first shaft wall, from the main frame in the fixing position than a fixing surface of a primary fixing component that is used to fix the mounting frame in the shaft, and the support surface is spaced further outward from the main frame in the fixing direction in the displacement position than the fixing surface.

A setting tool used in a method for percussively driving an anchor rod into a borehole in a substrate has a drive-side end and, in an opposite tool direction, an end facing away from the drive. The setting tool has a tool adapter that forms the drive-side end and is arranged to interact with a driven impact tool. The end facing away from the drive is formed by a receiving element that has a recess arranged to receive part of an anchor rod. The tool adapter and the receiving element are coupled together by a coupling element such that an impact force introduced via the tool adapter is transmitted to an anchor rod arranged in the recess of the receiving element. The coupling element, in particular a coil spring, is arranged to allow for a displacement of at least part of the receiving element transversely to the tool direction.

A mounting frame for being displaced and fixed in a shaft has a main frame, a first primary fixing component for supporting the mounting frame on a first shaft wall of the shaft and a secondary fixing component for supporting the mounting frame on a second shaft wall of the shaft opposite the first shaft wall in a fixing direction during fixing of the mounting frame in the shaft. The first primary fixing component and the secondary fixing component are arranged on the main frame. The first primary fixing component and/or the main frame can assume a transport position and a working position. A change of the first primary fixing component and/or the main frame from its working position to its transport position leads to a reduction in an extension of the mounting frame in an extension direction that differs from the fixing direction.

An assembly device for carrying out assembly steps on a wall and a method for arranging a magazine component on a magazine housing device include a mobile assembly frame, a mechatronic installation component, the magazine housing device, magazine components and a securing device. The magazine housing device houses the magazine components with assembly means housed therein. The securing device, in a securing state, establishes a connection between the magazine components and the assembly frame to secure the magazine components against displacement relative to the assembly frame. The magazine components each have a first coupling element and the securing device has a second coupling element. The first coupling element and the second coupling element are arranged such that the securing device can be detachably coupled to the magazine components by the two coupling elements.

A mounting system for performing an installation operation in an elevator shaft of an elevator system has a mounting apparatus that includes a carrier component with a mechatronic installation component, a displacement component, a suspension cable and a deflection roller deflecting the suspension cable between the displacement component and the carrier component. The carrier component is supported against a supporting wall of the elevator shaft by an upper support roller, at least during displacement in the elevator shaft. The suspension cable has, between the deflection roller and the carrier component, a diagonal pull relative to the vertical in the direction of the supporting wall and is guided via the deflection roller such that the diagonal pull can be varied by displacing the deflection roller. The deflection roller is arranged via a holding apparatus on a surface of the supporting wall such that the deflection roller protrudes into the elevator shaft.

An elevator car load measurement system for determining a load of an elevator car includes a plurality of at least two force sensors that are daisy-chained and connected to a controller for determining the load. Each force sensor measures a force exerted by the elevator car on the respective force sensor and generates a frequency signal with a square-wave form, wherein the frequency signal is proportional to the respective measured force. At least one of the force sensors adds a first frequency signal received from the previous force sensor along the daisy chain a second frequency signal generated by the at least one force sensor to generate a frequency sum signal, the last of the force sensors in the daisy chain forwards the frequency sum signal to the controller.

A safety brake device has a setting device moving an abutment or a housing to limit movement of brake wedges engaging a guide rail which limits a braking force applied by the brake wedges. The setting device can continuously adjust the braking force limit in dependence on a magnitude of a mass to be braked.

Brake arresting device with adaptable brake force for an elevator

A braking device acts on a guide rail and consists of a housing that is arranged at an elevator car yoke and serves as a support for spring packets and/or for adjusting packets. The housing also serves as a support and guide for chock guide elements that in turn retain and guide brake chocks with brake linings. Pushrods engage at one end at the brake chocks, and at the other end are pivotably connected to an actuating fork. Upon braking of the elevator car, the actuating fork is moved at the pushrod end in the direction of the braking device. The guided brake chocks with the brake linings slide in the braking device. At the same time the brake linings are moved at the guide leg of the guide rail. The brake chocks are moved in the braking device and the spring and adjusting packets are stressed, whereby a braking force for stopping an elevator car or a counterweight is generated.
