I thought elevators used plain, vanilla electric motors? Posted by The Bean 12/11/2005 1:31 PM | remove   Depends on the elevator. Those in taller buildings (i.e. cable elevators) use a motor mounted at the top of the shaft. Shorter buildings - 4 stories or less usually - will have an elevator car lifted by a hydraulic piston, just like a car lift in a mechanic's shop. Those elevators typically have a hydraulic pump of some sort. You rarely see anything except hydraulic elevators until you get into buildings of 4 stories or more. This mall was 2, 3 if you count the basement. If you'd like to add a comment, please login or register. All content and images copyright © 2002-2024 UER.CA and respective creators.
