Definition
Elevator should be defined as: a platform or a semi-enclosed platform lifting machinery or device that carries people or goods up and down the vertical passageway. It is a whole consisting of platforms and the equipment, motors, cables and other auxiliary equipment used to manipulate them.
A Brief History of the Development of Lifts
The earliest appearance of similar elevators can be traced back to ancient China and European countries. At that time, tools such as potter's wheels were used to transport people and goods vertically. The modern elevator is a product of the invention of the steam engine in the nineteenth century. In 1845, the first hydraulic elevator was born, and the liquid used at that time was water. In 1853, the American Elisha Otis [Elisha Otis] invented the automatic safety device, which greatly improved the safety of the steel cable traction elevator. On March 23, 1857, a five-story store in New York, USA installed the first passenger elevator using Otis safety devices. Since then, the use of lifts has been widely accepted and developed at a high speed. The original lifts were propelled by steam engines, so the buildings they housed had to be fitted with boiler rooms. In 1880, the German Siemens invented the elevator using electricity, and since then the veritable "elevator" has officially appeared. Since then, the use of lifts has been widely accepted and developed at a high speed.
In modern times, what we use to lift goods is a kind of wooden ladder, which is very inconvenient to use and dangerous to climb. The first city in China to install lifts is Shanghai. In 1907, two Otis lifts were installed in the six-storey Huizhong Hotel. The first commercial elevator in Taiwan was installed in 1932 during the Japanese occupation period. It was located in the "Juyuan Department Store" in Taipei City, and it was called Liulong at that time. At present, the elevators produced in China have different product models, and the lifting heights range from 4 meters, 6 meters, 18 meters or even hundreds of meters. Use domestic and foreign advanced hydraulic, motor, pumping station systems, hydraulic system explosion-proof devices and hydraulic self-locking devices. It has the irreplaceable advantages of other products such as novel design, reasonable structure, balanced lifting, simple operation, and convenient maintenance. Widely used in plant maintenance, industrial installation, equipment maintenance property management, warehouse, aviation, airport, port, station, machinery, chemical industry, medicine, electronics, electric power and other high-altitude equipment installation and maintenance.
Now, the development of elevators is at a peak state. Since most manufacturers or individuals choose multi-storey buildings in order to improve the utilization rate of the site, a device is also needed to facilitate the lifting and lowering of goods. Due to the high cost and low carrying capacity of ordinary elevators, it is not suitable for loading goods of tens or hundreds of tons, so hydraulic lifts with high carrying capacity have been developed by cargo lift supplier to assist production and cargo transportation. The hydraulic lift is safe and has a large load capacity, and it is easy to maintain, which makes this special industry develop faster.
