Abstract (en)

An elevator device includes a car and a counterweight suspended by a main rope. The drive force of a driving machine is transmitted to the counterweight through a drive rope. Through ascent and descent of the counterweight, the car is caused to ascend and descend. The drive rope is wrapped around a plurality of counterweight sheaves mounted on the counterweight, an upper hoistway sheave arranged in the upper portion of the hoistway, and a lower hoistway sheave arranged in the lower portion of the hoistway. All the counterweight sheaves are arranged coaxially on the upper portion of the counterweight. <IMAGE>
