This study focuses on the issue of improving safety management of elevators. The role of certification and supervision in reducing the associated accidents is specifically addressed. The results of simple statistical analysis suggests that a certification procedure emphasizing the quality assurance during manufacturing and supervision during assembly and installation of elevators are needed and can be effective in minimizing the associated accidents.

According to the survey, abnormal condition of the system is the main source for interrupting an elevator service, especially faults in worm gears used for the traction machine. Worm gear is popularly used in traction machine for middle and low speed elevators. Elevators need high reliability and stability, because they are closely related to human life. Usually, traction machine is applied to drive the elevators that have height about 35 m and it is an important mechanical unit for riding quality in elevators. There are some research results about types of vibration fault for worm gear in International Association Elevator Engineers (IAEE). But this study concerns with diagnosis of various faults in elevator worm gear using vibration signal. The analysis of fault characteristics is compared with previous researches in traction machine.

Most towfish systems do not have propulsive devices and cannot compensate for perturbation motion, which can affect the observation data. This paper discusses attitude control of a towfish with elevators on the left and right tail wings to improve the quality of the observational data. Specifically, we investigate the relationships between the towing point, the center of gravity, and the drag forces produced by the elevators to clarify whether the elevators can control the attitude of the towfish sufficiently for various positions of the towing point and center of gravity. The feasible positions of the towing point and center of gravity are defined by mechanical analyses, and simulations are conducted to verify that the elevators can provide attitude control in these positions. The simulation results show that at some positions, the elevators can control the attitude quickly and sufficiently even if disturbances exist.

Recently, the height of building is more high and the number of moving people is increasing in the building. So we want to be necessary more effective vertical moving tool. Most of high intelligent building can satisfy tills need using many elevators. Many elevators system should need to distribute and distribute many elevator effectively. This paper effectively use many elevators to reduce customer' waiting time and propose the model of mathematical group control system.

An accident related with elevators can cause death or serious injury of operators or passengers. This kind of a fatal accident is due to a failure of elevator. The reduction of failures of elevators is important to reduce the occurrence of elevator accident. Thus, this paper presents the results of analysis for the failure of elevators using the failure data of elevator. The results of analysis can be used to make a maintenance process of elevators.

Because of not accepted on escape using elevators in fire emergency has some background. In the background elevator hoistway has turn into smoke spread route in fire. The escape that used an elevator was not able to make ends meet; of the big confusion is expected that cannot control the escape adequately, and do that elevator facilities breakdown possibility by the fire water, the escaper shut in car. Therefore ban on elevator service in fire time as a general rule. Recently, a few company promote super high-rise architecture in the country, a fire disaster prevention and human life safety measures preparation for PBD(A Performance Based Fire Protection Design) are studied concretely. And there is the escape example in fire time that used an elevator in the foreign country. You must promote it so that the escape measures that used enclosed stairway and an elevator in charge of a function of the mutual supplement. The result of this research can be used for establishing the standard and regulation for using elevators in fire emergency.

건물에 복수개의 엘리베이터가 설치되어질 때 각 엘리베이터의 불필요한 이동으로 인한 에너지 손실을 줄이고 승객의 요구에 따라 적절한 층에 카를 할당하는 제어를 엘리베이터 군관리제어라고 한다. 그러나 장애인용 엘리베이터는 3대 이상이 군관리제어가 될 경우 어느 호기가 호출될지를 예측할 수 없으므로 장애인들의 편의를 보장하기 위하여 국내의 관련 기준에 따라 군관리방식이 제한되며 적용될 수 없다. 본 논문에서는 개선방안으로서 일반 엘리베이터와 장애인용 엘리베이터를 통합한 군관리제어 방식을 제안하였으며 기존의 분리된 운영방식과 비교하여 호출 후 대기시간 16.9 % 감소의 효율성을 검증해 보았고, 장애인용 엘리베이터는 선택적으로 독립운행이 되도록 함으로써 승강기 검사기준과 보건복지부의 유권해석 모두에 위배되지 않고 효율을 극대화할 수 있는 개선된 통합 군관리제어 시스템임을 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 입증하였다.

엘리베이터의 전력은 대기 시에 소모되는 전력과 운행 시에 소모되는 전력으로 분류할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 변화가 많은 승객의 교통량에 적절한 운행 대수를 계산하고 운행하지 않는 엘리베이터의 전원을 차단하여 엘리베이터의 대기전력을 저감시키는 퍼지제어기를 제안하였다. 또한 엘리베이터의 운행대수 제한에 의한 승객의 평균 대기시간의 증가도 최소화 하도록 퍼지제어기를 설계하였다. 본 논문에서 제안된 퍼지제어기를 그룹 엘리베이터 실험장치에서 실험하였을 때에 승객의 대기시간이 약 7.5%~9.5% 증가하였고, 한 대당 하루 약 675KWh의 대기전력 저감과 한 대당 년 간 약 236.6KWh의 엘리베이터 대기전력의 저감이 예상된다.

The number of elevators in Korea has surpassed 700,000 units in 2019, which is the 8th in the world by number of installed units and 3rd in the world by new units. The word 'lift' is a representative word, and the category includes elevators, escalators, dumb waiters, and moving walks. Those who live in the city will experience using elevators once or twice a day, and these elevators are becoming an indispensable means of transportation when using high-rise apartments or subways. However, such a convenient elevator also has a lot of risks that threaten the safety of the user and actually cause many accidents every year. In particular, escalators (including moving walks), which account for as little as 5% of all elevators, account for 70% of all elevator accidents. According to Heinrich's chain of thought theory, accidents are caused by a combination of factors, which are divided into five stages: Stage 1: Genetic Factors and Social Environment, Stage 2: Individual Defects, Stage 3: Unsafe behavior and Unsafe conditions, Stage 4: Accident, Stage 5: Injury. Heinrich said that three of these five phases, unsafe behavior and unsafe conditions, require safety management and efforts to prevent accidents. In escalator accidents, the analysis of accident cases that have occurred so far will be related to unsafe behaviors and unsafe conditions, and the effective management of these causes of accidents will enable safer and more convenient use of escalators. This study analyzed accident cases of elevator users, focusing on escalator accidents over the last 10 years (2010 ~ 2019), and safety management to prevent safety accidents of elevator users by analyzing the behavior of actual users and questionnaires of experts in related fields. The method was studied.
