The invention provides an
elevator speed
limiter. A
rope wheel and a car synchronously move through a steel
wire rope; a
ratchet wheel limits a self rotating angle through a limiting device. When the car stops at a certain floor, a linkage device is started, so that the
ratchet wheel is in linkage with the
rope wheel; at the moment, once a car sliding phenomenon occurs, the limiting device firstly limits the rotating range of the
ratchet wheel; at the moment, as the ratchet wheel is in linkage with the
rope wheel, the rotation of the rope wheel is also limited, and the rope wheel and the car synchronously move through the steel
wire rope arranged on the rope wheel in a tensioning manner; after the rotation of the rope wheel is limited, the steel
wire rope of the speed
limiter lifts and pulls a safety clamp operating
handle, a safety clamp brakes the
elevator car, and the motion of the car is also limited, so that the effect of controlling car sliding is realized. According to the
elevator speed
limiter, a phenomenon in the prior art that the car cannot stop due to the simple control of braking of a traction
machine (as the secondary braking of the traction
machine is not tight) can be effectively avoided.
