Install an elevator “sit” up and down the stairs
Climbing stairs to young people in the body, may be a good opportunity to exercise, but for the inconvenience of the elderly legs are miserable. Is there a means of transport, can not be equipped with car lifts in the residential buildings, to the elderly downstairs to provide convenience?
Shanghai Elderly Society conducted a questionnaire survey of 1053 elderly people in 2012, the results show that the elderly are willing to install the elevator up to 89.3%, showing the demand for elevators strong.
In the high-rise apartment, the car elevator has never been absent, but in the old residential building, increase the elevator has become almost impossible to complete the task, but the latter is precisely the elderly concentrated area. In addition, many children to buy a villa or duplex residential, and then the older elders living together, but the elderly because of the inconvenience of climbing and always stay in a floor activities.
Is there a new type of high-tech device that can meet the needs of these elderly people? The answer is yes.
The seat-type elevator is an elevator that runs on the side of the stairs. The main function is to help the elderly and the disabled to move downstairs. Its structure is generally composed of rail, drive and seat three parts, from the appearance point of view, like a track running on the track. After the start switch, the seat elevator will be able to operate, very convenient. Install this elevator without any changes to the building structure.
In fact, in Europe and the United States, the seat of the elevator has been a household name, and has a high market coverage, but still in the initial stage of China, this is because the consumer awareness is not high, on the other hand is the cost The problem.
Because there is no mature domestic seat elevator products, so have to rely on imports, which led to rising costs, high prices, it is learned that the three-story seat elevator cost of 150,000 or so, this is not an ordinary working class bear. If the owners of the building to raise funds, there will be coordination between the neighborhood problems, as well as the late maintenance of the plight.
However, in the industry view, with the market structure and the concept of the user changes, seat-type elevator is expected to gradually into the ordinary family. At present, some domestic manufacturers have seats in the elevator program, when the domestic product R & D mature, and high-quality high-end products with foreign high-end products to form a healthy competition. And consumers are aware of the practicality of the seat-type elevator and the ability to pay the cost of the product, the enterprise can expand production capacity, so that the cost of further decline.
Household elevator industry in fact has the relevant national standards. 2008 published “home elevator manufacturing and installation of norms” provides the basic requirements of home elevators and other content, the manufacture of home elevators manufacturers have some guiding significance.
People often say “take the elevator”, now come to see really can “sit” the elevator. In the “floating old” phenomenon more common in the case, the seat elevator provides a new solution.
