A stopper sheave is disposed on a lower portion of the main frame. A flexible stopper cord-like body is wound onto the stopper sheave. The stopper cord-like body is connected to the upper car on a first side of the stopper sheave and is connected to the lower car on a second side of the stopper sheave.
