The initial demand for installing elevators in villas is to go upstairs and downstairs, but with the progress of the industry, owners have higher and higher requirements for villa elevators. The villa's current villa elevators not only solve the function of going up and down, but also add practical functions such as convenient installation, small civil engineering changes, and overall beauty (such as sightseeing villa elevators).
Home elevators and villa elevators on the market mainly include side traction elevators, hydraulic elevators, backpack elevators, strong drive elevators, screw elevators, stairlifts, and pneumatic vacuum elevators.
- Side traction elevator: It is derived from the commercial machine room-less elevator in the building, and the structure is the same as that of a commercial elevator. This type of elevator has a complete car. As long as there is a place in the home, the load can be large and the running speed can be faster. When the elevator is running, the weak vibration will be transmitted to the hoistway wall, and there will be a little noise when the home is particularly quiet. Due to the existence of the counterweight, it occupies a large area.
- Hydraulic elevator: As the name suggests, it drives the elevator by hydraulic principle. The load capacity can be very large, and it is basically used for large-load freight elevators in commercial applications, such as transporting cars. When a hydraulic elevator fails, it can drain the hydraulic oil to save the trapped people, but it will occasionally leak oil after a long time. There are hydraulic elevators with their own hoistway, and there are also hydraulic elevators that require the owner to provide a hoistway. The elevator speed will not be very fast, and the motor noise will be a little bit.
- Backpack elevator: similar to a student carrying a schoolbag, the counterweight is on the back of the elevator, and the car's stress point deviates, and the vibration and noise will increase after a period of operation.
- Forced drive elevator: also called reel elevator, hoist elevator, there is a motor on the top of the elevator, and the elevator is driven up and down by the steel wire rope. This type of elevator has high energy consumption and is less safe than traction elevators. Screw elevators usually use two left and right screws to drive the electric platform to move up and down. Due to the large load capacity, it was first used for cargo transportation. After changing to a home elevator, the screw becomes one, and there is no car at the rear of the elevator.
- Screw elevator: generally comes with a hoistway, shallow pit, and the interior decoration effect is very good. Noise and vibration will increase after a period of operation.
- Stair elevator: It is a good solution when there is no place to install an elevator in the house, but the width of the stairs should be greater than 1000mm, otherwise the passable width will be less after the seat rail is installed.
- Pneumatic vacuum elevator: It is currently sold in China, and uses the air pressure difference to drive the elevator up and down. The safety is high, maintenance-free, and the self-rescue of trapped people can be realized by self-weight.
