US Patent:

20080296544, Dec 4, 2008
Filed:

Oct 27, 2005
Appl. No.:

12/089764
Inventors:

John P. Wesson - Vernon CT, US
Mark S. Thompson - Tolland CT, US
James R. Irish - Vernon CT, US
William A. Veronesi - Hartford CT, US
John T. Pitts - Avon CT, US
William C. Perron - Burlington CT, US
Ary Mello - Farmington CT, US
Hugh James O'Donnell - Longmeadow MA, US

International Classification:

B66D 1/00
B21D 53/10
US Classification:

254264, 2989814
Abstract:

An elevator load bearing assembly () includes a jacket () having different portions comprising different polymer compositions. In a disclosed example, a plurality of tension members () are at least partially surrounded by a first portion () comprising a first polymer composition. A second portion () establishes at least one exterior surface () of the jacket () and comprises a second polymer composition. In one example, a surface-modifying agent is added to alter the composition of at least a portion of the jacket (). In another example, co-extrusion techniques using different polymer compositions establish different portions of the jacket ().

US Patent:

20110114908, May 19, 2011
Filed:

Jul 3, 2008
Appl. No.:

12/997283
Inventors:

Richard N. Fargo - Plainville CT, US
Kathryn Rauss Sherrick - Bristol CT, US
David Wayne Mckee - Somers CT, US
Jon George Demos - West Hartford CT, US
International Classification:

B66D 3/04
B05D 3/12
US Classification:

254390, 427277
Abstract:

An exemplary method of making a first component for contacting another component includes applying a wear and corrosion resistant material layer onto a surface of the first component. The wear and corrosion resistant material layer is then roughened subsequent to having been applied to the surface. A component comprises an exemplary elevator sheave that includes a metallic body having a sheave surface that is adapted to contact an elevator tension member. A corrosion resistant material layer on the sheave surface has a thickness that is greater than about 5 microns.

US Patent:

20170240382, Aug 24, 2017
Filed:

May 10, 2017
Appl. No.:

15/591585
Inventors:

- Farmington CT, US
Brad Guilani - Woodstock Valley CT, US
Kathryn Rauss Sherrick - Bristol CT, US
Amir Lotfi - Redondo Beach CA, US
Hong Yang - Avon CT, US
International Classification:

B66B 7/06
D07B 5/00
D07B 1/22
B29D 29/00
D07B 1/16
Abstract:

A belt and a method for manufacturing a belt is provided. The belt includes a plurality of lengthwise-extending tension members and a jacket. The jacket substantially retains the plurality of tension members. The jacket has a first side region, a second side region, and a center region between the first and second side regions. The first and second side regions of the jacket are more fire retardant than the center region of the jacket.

US Patent:

20170022029, Jan 26, 2017
Filed:

Apr 1, 2014
Appl. No.:

15/301442
Inventors:

- Farmington CT, US
Kathryn Rauss Sherrick - Bristol CT, US
International Classification:

B66B 7/06
D07B 1/22
D07B 5/00
B66B 9/00
Abstract:

A belt for suspending and/or driving an elevator car of an elevator system includes a plurality of tension members spaced from each other along a width of the belt and extending longitudinally along a length of the belt. A jacket at least partially envelopes the plurality of tension members and forms at least one outer belt surface along a width of the belt. A groove is located in the at least one outer belt surface extending longitudinally along the length of the belt.
