Features: Elevators, like other mechanical and electrical equipment, can reduce downtime for repairs and extend their service life if used properly and managed by dedicated personnel with regular maintenance. In such cases, faults can be repaired promptly and thoroughly, not only reducing downtime but also improving operational efficiency and promoting production development. Conversely, if used improperly without proper management and regular maintenance, elevators not only fail to perform their intended functions but also shorten their service life, potentially leading to personal injury or fatality accidents and severe consequences. Practice has proven that the performance of an elevator depends on the quality of several aspects, including its manufacturing, installation, maintenance, repair, and operational management. For elevators that have been installed and (commissioned) successfully, whether they achieve satisfactory benefits after strict inspection and delivery depends on the quality of management in safety and rational use, daily maintenance, and repair. This book provides a concise overview of elevators, from their basic structure to their use and management, with detailed descriptions of how to conduct correct use and management for safety operation and use management personnel. It is a must-read for use management personnel. It can also serve as a training textbook for elevator operators and as a foundational textbook for elevator-related programs in various technical schools.
