Mini-elevator: how to make it independently

It is difficult to make the elevator in the house or the two-storeyed apartment, but it is possible. The main thing is to consider all engineering nuances. Well and, of course, construction of own elevator requires a lot of money.

  • tool;
  • hydraulic cylinder;
  • hydroelectric station;
  • metal-framework structure;
  • plywood or chipboard

1. It is possible to construct the elevator absolutely in any house. For this purpose it is necessary to choose the suitable place. The main thing that it in principle was because the elevator - design rather big and bulky, so, spaces in the house for it is necessary much.

2. After the place is chosen, it is necessary to attend to construction of the base for future elevator. Later it is necessary to collect metal-framework structure. To make it it is correct, it is necessary to make all necessary calculations: on what weight it will be calculated with what speed will rise and fall on what it will fasten. All these engineering calculations are vital as guarantee of successful operation of your elevator.

3. At construction of the elevator do not forget to consider also by what engine your elevator will be run. Therefore special attention needs to be paid to the choice of hydraulic cylinder and actually hydroelectric station. To independently make them it will not turn out therefore it is worth ordering these parts on specialized productions. Consider the fact that the hydraulic cylinder has to be equal length to lifting height of your elevator at the order. So do not forget this parameter to count carefully.

4. Actually the cabin of the home elevator is made of sheets chipboards and plywood. They sheathe metal framework of lift cage. It is also necessary to worry in advance and about mechanisms of call of your lift cabin. For this purpose it is necessary to be puzzled with purchase of wires and the remote controller with attendance button.

5. Do not forget when designing about lift brakes. For them metal preparation which fastens to the back surface of the elevator where the cabin adjoins to the mine becomes too. It is necessary in order that in case of sharp falling, the elevator could dump easily speed and be late in the mine. It is also necessary to think also of alternative ways of the movement of the elevator, on case if in the house cut off electricity.

6. It is possible to make the facilitated version of the elevator from outer side of the house. If there is not enough place inside, then the elevator can be placed on the street. For this purpose it is necessary to start up rails on the wall, and to design cabin open, such what in shopping centers exists for disabled people. The movement of such cabin is arranged much more simply. Rise and descent is organized by means of special relays.
