Flotation means for the correct wedging of a safety device for life |
(57) The invention consists of flotation means for correct wedging of a safety device
for lifts specially designed to be situated between the guide and the lift cabin optimising
space requirements, consisting mainly of the use of a set of horizontal grooves (7.1)
which enable lateral displacement of the body (1) of the safety device which is laterally
displaceable and able to absorb all the forces deriving from wedging at the time of
stopping, as well as being provided with a seating means (1.2) specially designed
to ensure the correct support of the wedge at all times.
